Being spoken to like that, even a mud man would have three parts pride, let alone Su Qingyue, who is not that cold, and has a bad temper as a killer.
Su Qingyue was about to get angry, but then she thought again, it might not be a bad thing to be disliked by people.
Shi Shanzao, the daughter of the Shi Family, was also there. She used to like Yuchuan, and she hated Su Qingyue for taking her brother Chuan from her. If it hadn’t been for Chuan’s family being too poor and the burdens too heavy, she would have married him long ago.
Now, with such a big incident happening in Chuan’s family, she wanted to visit but didn’t dare. At this moment, it wouldn’t be good for her to be associated with the Xiao Family, as it would ruin an unmarried girl’s reputation. Shi Shanzao glanced at Su Qingyue’s medicine jar, “Is Su Qingyue trying to sell this teeth cleaning stuff? It’s one thing if someone else sells it, but you shouldn’t deceive everyone and take their money. We all know the current situation of the Xiao Family, you shouldn’t resort to cheating. I heard you’ve sold everything in the Xiao Family, and you must have nothing left for dinner. How about this, in consideration of Brother Chuan’s good nature, I will give you five copper coins.”
With that, she reached for her embroidered purse and took out five cents to give it to Su Qingyue.
Su Qingyue held the five copper coins and looked at her indifferently. From the way this woman looked at Xiao Yuchuan when he fought with Shi Cai, it was evident that she secretly loved him.
The Xiao Family always had someone to buy their prey, and sometimes she would wander around the village, secretly paying attention to the villagers’ names and family situations. She knew who the people speaking were.
She hadn’t heard this woman’s name mentioned by others, but because Chuan had fought with her brother Shi Cai, she had figured out everyone in the Shi Family, and this woman was named Shi Shanzao.
If Wang Qi’s words were excessive, Shi Shanzao’s words were downright vicious.
Wang Qigu looked at Shi Shanzao’s actions, “Miss Shi, you’re too kind-hearted.
There are so many poor people, why would you help her? Not to mention, Su
Qingyue is not a good person, she’s a habitual thief.”
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Su Qingyue with disdain, “Miss Shi is so kind, even helping out a thief…”
“We’re from the same village, we should help each other out.” Shi Shanzao blushed, earning more praise from everyone.
Under such circumstances, an ordinary wife would have been ashamed and ran away in tears, but Su Qingyue stood there like nothing had happened.
Wang Qigu spoke up for Shi Shanzao, “Su Qingyue, you just got five copper coins from Miss Shi for nothing, why don ‘t you thank her?”
Su Qingyue flicked the five copper coins back into Shi Shanzao’s face, “People treat me like a beggar, but I’m not a beggar, so of course, I can’t take it.”
Shi Shanzao was stunned when she was hit by the coins, her face red with several marks before the coins fell to the ground. She suddenly stood up, “Su Qingyue, I was trying to be kind and pitying you, and you don’t appreciate it!”
“Who are you to care about me?” Su Qingyue coldly replied, “Seeing you looking honest and clean, it’s rare to see such a scheming young girl.”
“How am I scheming?” Shi Shanzao was furious, her eyes red, “I just pity you and give you coins, and you’re ungrateful!”
“Exactly,” Wang Qi reminded, “Wife of the Xiao Family, all the Xiao Family’s men are lying in bed, you can’t be so arrogant, no one is going to help you!”
