Chapter 97 There's something wrong with her (Seeking monthly votes)
“This isn’t over yet. I must make Hong Lanlan truly submit to me,” Cai Qinqin declared, sparking another round of discussion among those around her.
Some say that what Hong Lanlan did yesterday was indeed excessive.
Some people said that Tsai Chin-chin was making a mountain out of a molehill.
But after Tsai Chin-Chin heard this, the other party immediately changed his mind.
Tsai Chin-Chin happened to have nothing to do, so she started chatting with these gossipy people.
"Let me tell you, I've heard that Hong Lanlan's eldest son, Zhang Yu, is not Zhang Xiang's biological son. Hong Lanlan also has a body odor, and every time Zhang Xiang tries to get close to her, he gets suffocated by the smell. Hong Lanlan feels that he looks down on her, and the two of them argue about it."
After Cai Qinqin talked about these two things, she felt much better.
The group exchanged bewildered glances. "Where did you hear this? Is it really true?"
"Of course it's true, because I heard all of these things from Xu Qingmo."
Xu Qingmo was considered a child prodigy by the people in the family compound; few people would doubt what she said.
Several people couldn't help but glance at Cai Qinqin. Cai Qinqin had even gone to Xu Qingmo to ask about Hong Lanlan's secrets, so it seemed that the secrets Xu Qingmo had mentioned about Cai Qinqin a while ago were true.
One of the clueless young men couldn't help but ask, "Is it true that Xu Qingmo said Wang Shuncai didn't want to marry you?"
Cai Qinqin sighed, "When we were young, Wang Shuncai was afraid of holding me back, so he didn't want to marry me. But look at us now, we're still living a great life."
A few gossipy people gave a meaningful "oh".
Tsai Chin-chin was dissatisfied with their behavior, "What do you mean by this? Don't you believe me?"
"I believe it, how can I not believe it?"
"I have some things to take care of at home, so I'll go back and get back to work."
"Me too, I still have a lot of clothes at home that need mending."
"I'm going home to make lunch."
Tsai Chin-Chin reminded her, "There are still several hours until lunchtime, what's the rush?"
Go home early and get some rest.
The gossipy girls headed home, and when they ran into other people on the way, they couldn't help but tell them what they had heard from Cai Qinqin, and before leaving, they told the other people not to tell anyone.
The other party promised that they would never tell anyone, but when they met someone they knew better on the way, they couldn't help but start chatting.
When Hong Lanlan returned from the street, two people deliberately approached her and sniffed her forcefully.
Hong Lanlan instinctively hugged herself, her expression showing a hint of panic, "What are you doing?"
"No...it's nothing."
"Suddenly we smelled a foul odor. We're trying to figure out where it's coming from," another quick-thinking person said.
Hong Lanlan immediately objected, "I just came back from the street, and I bought all good stuff. How could it smell bad? What you said is offensive. Don't say it again."
"Okay, I won't say it next time."
Hong Lanlan was relieved. When she arrived at her destination, she unloaded her belongings and headed home.
She encountered two more people who sniffed in her direction again.
Just as Hong Lanlan was about to ask what was wrong, the two of them ran away quickly, as if she were some kind of fierce demon.
Hong Lanlan was completely bewildered. She had only gone to the market town, so why did she seem like a completely different person after she came back?
"What exactly are you all smelling?" Hong Lanlan couldn't contain her curiosity and stopped one of them to ask.
"It's nothing, I have to go now."
Hong Lanlan asked two people in a row, but neither of them gave her an answer.
Song Cuiping stepped forward and deliberately sniffed, "Hmm, it really does smell like body odor."
Hong Lanlan immediately raised her arm and smelled it; there was no body odor at all.
She changed into clean clothes early in the morning. It was cold, so she couldn't possibly sweat. Plus, the clothes were thick, so there was no way she could smell body odor.
Hong Lanlan grew bolder, "You're talking nonsense! How could I possibly have body odor? Are you trying to pick a fight?"
“The person who’s looking for trouble isn’t me, it’s Cai Qinqin. She’s the one who spread these rumors in the family compound, and she even said that your eldest son isn’t Zhang Xiang’s.”
Song Cuiping crossed her arms in front of her and relayed the news she had heard to Hong Lanlan.
Hong Lanlan was furious. She told Zhang Xiang about it last night, and Zhang Xiang advised her not to take Cai Qinqin seriously.
After all, the other party is not someone to be trifled with.
Hong Lanlan wasn't afraid. Zhang Xiang gave her some money so she could go to the market town and buy some things to take home.
Hong Lanlan didn't say much and went to the market town early in the morning.
I thought that if Tsai Chin-chin behaved herself, she would forgive and forget.
I never expected this woman to be so despicable, actually spreading rumors about her in the family compound.
Moreover, on the way back, several women took the initiative to come up to her and smell her, probably because they had heard what Cai Qinqin said and came to verify it.
"Cai Qinqin started this, I won't let her get away with it." Hong Lanlan put her things inside, locked the door, and immediately went to find Cai Qinqin.
As soon as she reached the door, Tsai Chin-Chin poured out the water she was carrying.
Hong Lanlan dodged in time and was not splashed with water.
Hong Lanlan was immediately displeased and yelled at Cai Qinqin, "You did this on purpose! You splashed water as soon as you saw me. How can you be so mean?"
"Did I offend you by splashing water in front of my own house? How can you be so shameless?" Cai Qinqin put the basin on the ground, put her hands on her hips, and walked out of the house.
Not to be outdone, Cai Qinqin pointed at Hong Lanlan and cursed, "You woman are quite the runner! We agreed to meet at yesterday's place this morning, and you chickened out so soon? I really despise you."
"I just went shopping early this morning, that's all. I didn't chicken out. Stop spewing nonsense." Hong Lanlan immediately retorted.
“Being scared is being scared, being a coward is being a coward, there’s nothing wrong with admitting it. What’s really embarrassing is when some people are stubborn and unwilling to admit it, yet they don’t dare to confront me.” Cai Qinqin deliberately raised her voice, attracting many onlookers.
Hong Lanlan raised her voice, "You think I'm afraid of you? You think you can grow red hair?"
"If you're not afraid, why don't you show up where you were yesterday?"
"I already said I was going to buy something. Are you deaf? Can't you understand human language?"
"Stop using these as excuses! Apologize to me now and say you're afraid of me, and I might let it go." Cai Qinqin raised her chin, looking smug.
Hong Lanlan completely forgot Zhang Xiang's words at that moment, such as "taking a step back for family harmony" and "enduring for a moment for peace."
They're all lies meant to amuse people.
When it comes to someone like Tsai Chin-chin, we must fight her to the bitter end!
"I didn't do anything wrong, why should I apologize to you? You should be apologizing to me."
"Fine, fine, you won't listen to reason, so I'll make you suffer the consequences. Since you're so ungrateful, I don't need to show you any mercy." Cai Qinqin cleared her throat when she saw that the crowd of onlookers had dwindled.
"I heard that Zhang Yu is your child with someone else!"
