Chapter 22 The tough are afraid of the reckless; let's play it safe.



Cheng Xiao Kui put one hand in her pocket, sneered, and said, "My house is nothing like yours, with such a big crack in the wall!"

But this is such a rare item, you should keep it for yourself!

Second Aunt didn't expect Cheng Xiao Kui to actually talk back.

Her face twitched violently as she said, "You little slut, you dare talk back?! I'll tear your mouth apart!"

A woman's weak voice came from the low-ceilinged kitchen.

The thin woman looked sickly, and her movements were very slow, as if she had just finished chores in the house.

She leaned against the door and said, "Second Aunt, what are you doing?! Xiao Kui just got back. Whatever she did wrong, just teach her a lesson. You don't need to do this!"

Second Aunt glared at Song Wenhui and said sarcastically, "You think you can raise a daughter well? Like mother, like daughter!

Not only is she a jinx to her husband and son, but she also raised such a scoundrel! She's a disgrace to her ancestors!

Cheng Xiaokui's face twitched violently. She took a step forward and slapped her second aunt hard across the face.

She spat directly in her second aunt's face, "Pah! Who do you think you are? Pointing fingers at my family, what right do you have to speak for my family?!"

Who do you think you are? Whose pants ripped open and exposed you?!

She admitted that she used very foul language, but her second aunt really went too far!

She could tolerate her second aunt scolding her, but why did her second aunt scold her mother?

How could her mother be considered a jinx to her husband and son? No matter what her mother is like, it's not her aunt's place to scold her!

Second Aunt didn't expect Cheng Xiao Kui to be so bold as to slap her. She yelled and raised her hand to hit Cheng Xiao Kui.

However, Cheng Xiao Kui was prepared. When she saw her second aunt pull her hand away, she turned her body and stretched out her foot, tripping her second aunt.

Second Aunt's body slammed heavily onto the bluestone slab, and Cheng Xiao Kui could even feel the ground tremble.

My aunt was incredibly strong; all her strength was reflected back at her.

Now, she's so exhausted from filming herself that she doesn't even have the strength to speak.

The neighbors looked at each other, dumbfounded, their minds blank for a moment.

Everyone knows that Second Aunt is a notorious troublemaker, and no one in this alley dares to mess with her.

Unexpectedly, when Cheng Xiao Kui returned, she immediately dealt with her second aunt.

Although Cheng Xiao Kui had a bad reputation, the neighbors felt less disgusted with her because of what she did.

After all, Cheng Xiao Kui did what they had always wanted to do!

Cheng Xiao Kui walked to her mother's side, reached out to support her, and said, "Mom! I'm back. Don't worry, I'll protect you. Anyone who dares to bully you again will just have to try!"

As she spoke, she glanced sharply at the people standing in the alley watching the commotion.

Some people looked at Cheng Xiao Kui with delight, because no matter what, Cheng Xiao Kui was considered filial.

Some people quickly looked away, not daring to meet Cheng Xiao Kui's gaze; this was probably a case of feeling guilty.

Cheng Qiu Kui never expected that Cheng Xiao Kui would actually teach her second aunt a lesson.

She stood there, stunned, forgetting to move.

Her second aunt had always bullied her family, but she had never dared to say a word back to her second aunt...

Song Wenhui, holding Cheng Xiaokui's hand, said, "Child, why are you back?! You...you didn't sneak back, did you?"

This was her biggest worry: if she escaped from the countryside and returned, she would be punished and sent back to the countryside.

Cheng Xiaokui said with a smile, "Mom, I have a quota to return to the city. I came back with honor."

There was one spot available in the village for students to return to the city. The village chief held a general meeting, and all the class leaders agreed to give me that spot!

Song Wenhui looked at her daughter with surprise and said, "I heard that only those educated youth who performed well in the village were eligible for a spot to return to the city. Daughter, is this spot for you?"

Cheng Xiaokui raised her chin and said, "That's right! I got the spot to go back to the city, which means I behaved very well in the village."

Don't listen to other people's nonsense! People can only talk a lot, and some are just jealous and resentful, trying to ruin my reputation!

The neighbors were stunned. Could it be that Li's eldest daughter's cousin was deliberately trying to ruin Cheng Xiao Kui's reputation?

They didn't know anything else, but this spot to return to the city was really reserved for the best-performing educated youth.

Therefore, Cheng Xiao Kui getting this spot indirectly proves that Cheng Xiao Kui must have performed very well in the village, definitely the kind of advanced person!

The people whispered among themselves, feeling that Cheng Xiao Kui's words were more credible.

Cheng Qiu Kui was overjoyed. She hurriedly asked, "Sister! Are you telling the truth?! You've done so well in the village, and Li Jia's eldest daughter's cousin is just jealous of you and spreading rumors to ruin your reputation?"

Cheng Xiao Kui pursed her lips, wondering how to put it.

She shifted her gaze and said, "Anyway, I married a soldier, and I got the village's quota for returning to the city. Think about it carefully."

Sigh, how should I put this?

Cheng Qiu Kui excitedly grabbed Cheng Xiao Kui's arm and said, "You must have performed the best, you must have been the first to be selected! That's why the only spot to return to the city was given to you at the conference!"

Sister, you're amazing! It's all my fault for listening to my cousin, the eldest daughter of the Li family!

How could she say anything good about you? The only spot to return to the city was given to you; she's probably furious and resentful!

You have no idea how filthy her letter was. She said you cheated on your husband, climbed into another educated youth's bed, and tried to force yourself on him.

Cheng Xiao Kui coughed a few times and said, "Well... let others say what they want, as long as I'm upright and honest!"
