"I'm fine."
Madam Zhang shook her head gently, still feeling somewhat uncomfortable.
He Zhenhua and the others, who were holding the child, looked embarrassed.
Clearly, they were unable to handle such a situation.
Lin Jingyu nodded to them.
Turning to Yao Ting, who was baring her teeth and brandishing her claws, he said, "What's wrong with your head? How dare you bully an old person?"
"Who bullied her?"
Yao Ting glared at Lin Jingyu, "Lin Jingyu, don't think I'm afraid of you. If your grandmother doesn't give me an explanation today, you won't have a good life."
If others are gossiping about you, go find them to talk to.
Madam Zhang glanced at her and said, "I spoke to the He family boy a couple of days ago, and he wasn't angry. You're such an ungrateful girl."
"You old hag, you..."
"Pah~"
A slap interrupted the cursing.
The burning pain on her face made Yao Ting's eyes widen.
Staring incredulously at the person in front of him, he exclaimed, "You hit me? You dare to hit me?"
"Is it strange that I hit you?"
Lin Jingyu sneered, "Do I need to pick an auspicious day to beat you up?"
"Well played."
Yang Shujue clapped and cheered, "Arrogant and insulting elders, if we don't beat such a beast, are we going to keep him around for the New Year?"
Yao Ting was so angry she almost exploded on the spot. "Who are you calling a beast?"
"Whoever answers, that's who it is."
Peng Shiyu added, "At least he has some self-awareness, knowing that he's worse than an animal."
"You guys~"
Yao Ting pointed at the people in front of her and screamed, "Who do you think you are? A bunch of shameless brats, always running around the county town doing who-knows-what kind of shady things..."
That's enough.
He Mingguo's stern voice interrupted her nonsense.
Lin Jingyu, who was about to take action, stared coldly at the person who was rushing over.
Peng Shiyu, Yang Shujue, and others also looked over at him.
He was covered in sweat and didn't bother to wipe it away.
I apologized to Madam Zhang immediately, saying, "Grandma Zhang, I'm sorry."
"You child, this has nothing to do with you."
Madam Zhang gently shook her head and said to him again, "A virtuous wife brings prosperity to three generations and harmony to the whole family. A harmonious family brings good fortune in everything."
A wife who is not virtuous will bring misfortune to her husband; three generations of unrest will lead to a family's decline and ruin.
Remember this: it's okay if you suffer personal injustice, but you can't let the elderly and young be restless. That's a sign of ruining the family fortune, understand?
“I’ll remember that, Grandma Zhang.”
He Mingguo paused for a moment, then nodded slightly.
"Good child, I hope you live a happy life."
Madam Zhang smiled and said, "Just now, two older women from the village came to chat with me. They were talking about how some of the female educated youth had bad tempers..."
I never expected this to happen.
"Grandma Zhang, it's not your fault, and it has nothing to do with you."
He Mingguo knew perfectly well that Yao Ting was the type to stir up trouble for no reason.
He turned and looked coldly at Yao Ting, "Go back now, and don't come looking for me again."
"Brother Mingguo, what do you mean?"
Yao Ting stared at him in disbelief. "Don't forget, you promised my parents you would take care of me. Are you going to abandon me now?"
"What do you mean, 'abandon you'?"
He Mingguo's face showed a hint of impatience. "You're not going to die. You're alive and well now, more arrogant than anyone else. You don't need me to take care of you."
"He Mingguo, what do you mean by saying that?"
Yao Ting screamed again in anger, her beautiful eyes blazing with fury: "I'm telling you, you can forget about abandoning me for the rest of your life."
I know you've fallen for that slut Lin Jingyu, and you're thinking of abandoning me for her? Let me tell you, no way.
If you don't let me have a good time, I'll never let you go, even if it means my death.
And you…"
Suddenly pointing at Lin Jingyu, he looked at her with a look that seemed to want to eat her flesh and drink her blood, "Don't think that having a vixen's face can seduce all men."
"If you dare to steal my brother Mingguo, I'll fight you to the death for the rest of my life! You just wait!"
She left after saying a lot of things.
But it stunned everyone present.
They all thought they had misheard.
“He Zhiqing…”
Lin Jingyu snapped out of her daze, looking completely bewildered. "We seem to have only met two or three times, and exchanged no more than ten words. Did Yao Zhiqing misunderstand?"
"I'm sorry, Lin Zhiqing."
He Mingguo gave a wry smile, "That's just Yao Ting's personality. Whenever she sees a pretty girl, she'll assume I like her and then she'll keep causing trouble for her."
She has caused me so much trouble, and no matter how I explain it to her, she just won't believe me.
I'm helpless too.
"I think she has something wrong with her brain."
Yang Shujue said bluntly, "And you too, knowing she has mental problems, why don't you stay away from her? Keeping her around is just asking for trouble."
It not only causes trouble for yourself, but also for others.
Someone like her should be left for her parents to deal with. Raising such a terrible daughter and then dumping her on someone else is utterly immoral.
"I've known her since we were little."
He Mingguo looked helpless. "Wherever I go, she follows. I can't shake her off even if I want to."
You may think she's not very proper, but the elders in our family think we have a very good relationship.
"And you?"
Peng Shiyu asked curiously, "From what I've heard, you don't actually like her, right?"
"How could I like someone who keeps causing me trouble?"
He Mingguo looked somber. "When I was younger, I treated her like a younger sister and tried my best to protect her whenever there was a problem."
