Wang Ermazi has a face full of freckles and likes to hit his wife. If I were his wife, I'd run too.
His wife is so respectable, and her mother is also a fierce person, marrying such a beautiful young woman to Old Mazzi who has chased away two wives.
I've never seen a mother like that. Isn't she ruining her own daughter's life?
How can you say I haven't seen one? Don't we have one like that in our village too! Wang Cuilan said in a low voice, Haven't you heard about the Qiao family's affairs? Han Guifen married her eldest daughter to Old Song's house, but Old Song has been paralyzed for two years, and no one in the village is willing to marry their own daughter there to suffer.
Old Mrs. Zhou, with her malicious eyes, said fiercely, Qiáo Èrmín's eldest daughter is selfish, jealous, and likes to harm people behind their backs. When she was just born, Luo Banxian predicted her fortune, saying she would grow up to be a prostitute, a reincarnation of a seductive vixen, who would steal other people's husbands. Such a promiscuous slut should be married off to suffer and be properly disciplined.
Old Mrs. Zhou's words were ugly. Others did not dare to agree for fear of provoking trouble if the words reached Qiáo Èrmín's household.
Someone ventured a sentence, Don't talk about other people's children like that. She's still a girl, don't ruin her reputation. Fortune-telling is all lies and shouldn't be taken seriously.
Old Mrs. Zhou, who did you hear these words from? Was it Han Guifen? Wang Cuilan looked down on Mother Qiao's behavior. If her Qiao Bei were truly selfish and jealous, would she support Qiáo Nán's education? Would she be willing to marry Da Nian and serve the paralyzed Old Song's house?
When Wang Cuilan said this, others felt something was wrong.
Is Qiao Bei adopted? asked an immigrant old lady who had moved to the village only six months ago.
Qiáo Èrmín lives next door to me. She's not adopted, she's his biological daughter. Old Mrs. Zhou said irritably. Even her own mother says she's selfish and jealous; she's no good!
Old Mrs. Zhou hated Qiao Bei to the bone, cursing her for being promiscuous.
Others advised her to stop cursing. If the words reached Qiáo Èrmín's ears, wouldn't they come to settle the score with her?
Fortune tellers are all liars and shouldn't be taken seriously.
Old Mrs. Zhou did not listen, being too annoyed that Qiao Bei was a reincarnation of a vixen and acted immorally.
Luo Banxian's fortune-telling is very accurate. He would never make a mistake. He said my Xiao Si would have a good life and become a boss in the future. My Xiao Si's grades are excellent now; she is always in the top three in exams. Next year, my Xiao Si will take the college entrance examination, and she will definitely do better than Qiáo Èrmín's daughter.
Qiáo Èrmín gambles all day long. How can he be worthy of having a good daughter like Qiáo Nán? Heaven is truly blind!
If the hen is crooked, the chicks will be crooked. Fortune-telling said his eldest daughter would grow up to be a prostitute, it must be correct!
Wang Cuilan couldn't stand it anymore. Many people in the village gamble, and some are completely depraved. Why don't you talk about others and only focus on Qiáo Èrmín's family? Do you have a grudge against Qiáo Èrmín?
What grudge do I have against his family? I just can't stand his eldest daughter's shamelessness; she's a whore!
She's getting married tomorrow, is she a whore?
Qiao Bei is so promiscuous! A young male voice suddenly interjected. The fortune teller said she's a reincarnation of a vixen, and she gets horny when she sees a man.
The group of village women and old ladies who were idly gossiping subconsciously looked over, only to see Old Mrs. Zhou's fourth son, who was in high school, standing nearby with a strange girl.
Xiao Si, why are you here? Old Mrs. Zhou glanced at the girl next to Zhou Xiao Si. Where did you go out of the village?
I took my classmate to the town to play.
Some gossiping old ladies looked at the girl next to him, Xiao Si, is this girl your girlfriend?
She's my female classmate. Her family is from out of town. She was bored in the dormitory during the summer vacation, so I brought her to my house for a few days. Zhou Xiao Si explained casually and then continued to curse Qiao Bei for being promiscuous.
His female classmate didn't allow him to curse.
Zhou Xiao Si was indifferent. What are you afraid of? Qiao Bei isn't here, so she won't hear me calling her promiscuous.
Female classmate: Even if she can't hear it, don't curse. You can't say such things carelessly.
Zhou Xiao Si got angry. I'm not saying it carelessly. It was the fortune teller who said she was promiscuous, and she gets horny when she sees a man...
Don't talk about others like that. The female classmate interrupted Zhou Xiao Si unceremoniously.
This made Zhou Xiao Si feel like he had lost face in front of the villagers, and he immediately put on a sullen expression.
Old Mrs. Zhou also disliked this female classmate. She had already slept with her son, and she dared to embarrass her son like this!
Zhou Xiao Si was Old Mrs. Zhou's late child. She herself couldn't bear to say a word about him. Just as she was about to lecture her son's girlfriend, she heard someone say, Qiao Bei is here!
Xǔ Qiāoběi, with Mother Song's ID card and her own money in her pocket, saw a group of old ladies and village women sitting at the entrance of the village.
It was obvious they were gossiping.
Qiao Bei is here?
Going out of the village?
Where are you going?
Some old ladies and village women saw Xǔ Qiāoběi and greeted her politely.
I'm looking for Sòng Huáinián. Have you seen Sòng Huáinián?
They're getting married tomorrow, can't bear to be apart today! A village woman joked.
Xǔ Qiāoběi smiled shyly and then continued to look for him.
Seeing Xǔ Qiāoběi leave, Old Mrs. Zhou viciously cursed, Bah, shameless! Seductive slut!
An old lady who had just come to the village to help her daughter look after her child said, This girl has a good appearance. She looks like the matriarch of a prominent family. How can she be a vixen?
Old Mrs. Zhou was unhappy to hear this and was about to speak when she heard the voice of Er Shazi from the east end of the village
