Upon hearing the commotion, the Su family members could no longer contain themselves and immediately rushed over to surround the area.
"Who are you calling an ugly monster?"
"If you don't have a mirror at home, go take a good piss and look at yourself!"
“You look like a pig, yet you call my sister ugly. If you don’t have eyes, you should go back and borrow a pair from the pigs in your pigsty.”
"If you don't leave Shanghe Village soon, don't cry when you get beaten up later..."
The three Su brothers were tall and strong, with muscles bulging under their clothes. Even the three little Su brothers had cold and stern faces, their fists clenched.
Gao Ruhua, who was originally a bully who preyed on the weak and feared the strong, lost all her previous bravado upon seeing this scene. She then raised her voice towards the back of the crowd:
“Uncle Xiao, you're the one who asked me to come to Shanghe Village today. You can't just ignore these people bullying me…”
Actually, when she first learned that her father planned to have a cripple move in, she was extremely unwilling.
Although she has lost three husbands, she comes from a wealthy family. With enough money, she can have any man she wants.
But she couldn't resist Old Man Xiao's repeated visits, trying to persuade her about how handsome and capable his eldest son was, so she reluctantly made a few trips to Shanghe Village.
Previously, she had either slipped and fallen in dog poop or bumped into rocks, getting her clothes and shoes all dirty, but she hadn't even seen Xiao Jinhan once. Until today, she made a special trip early in the morning.
Finally, I saw the real person on the path at the end of the village.
It was at that moment that she felt she was willing to accept either Xiao Jinhan marrying into the family or her marrying into Shanghe Village.
She's been good-looking since she was little, and she has absolutely no resistance to good-looking people.
Just seeing Xiao Jinhan's wheat-colored skin and prominent Adam's apple was enough to arouse her.
This was something she had never done before, unlike her deceased husband!
The Su family followed her gaze and saw Xiao Zhong, who was looking down and trying to leave quietly.
Su Bai's slanted eyes immediately turned cold. "Heh, this heartless old geezer, looks like he didn't get enough of a beating last time, and now he dares to come looking for trouble again..."
Before she finished speaking, Zhao had already turned around and gone back to the small courtyard to get two brooms covered in chicken and rabbit droppings. Her face was as gentle as ever. "Mother, please use these. These are the best for him..."
Su Hua's forehead twitched slightly.
This sister-in-law of hers usually doesn't show off, but she's really something else when it matters.
Yes, she likes it very much!
"Eldest daughter-in-law, well done!" Su Bai was shrewd and naturally remembered how Xiao Laotou had been chased away in a sorry state by a broom of chicken droppings last time. She quickly pushed through the crowd.
He picked up a broom covered in chicken droppings and threw it hard at Old Man Xiao's back.
Her movements were skillful and her aim was excellent. She struck the man in the center of his back with a single blow. Although the force was not great, it still stained a large patch of chicken droppings on the man's clean long shirt.
Su Hua clearly saw the man's movements stiffen for a moment, and then he walked towards the center of the village even faster.
"Hey! Uncle Xiao! Old Man Xiao? Why did you leave all by yourself..." Gao Ruhua was originally planning to deal with the Su family members in front of her with Xiao Zhong, but she was stunned when she saw this.
Just then, another broom, covered in rabbit droppings, swept towards her carefully changed pink dress. "That worthless old geezer is gone, you'd better leave too, hurry up and leave, or I'll beat you with this broom..."
Gao Ruhua: "…………"
Before she even said she wasn't leaving, the broom had already been swung at her! And every single one of those swipes was incredibly accurate, like a seasoned pro who'd been doing it for decades!
If she can't afford to offend her, can't she at least avoid her? Gao Ruhua ran away along the narrow path, secretly thinking to herself that next time she would definitely come quietly to avoid running into this family of ugly shrewish women again!
She was determined to have a man as handsome as Xiao Jinhan.
Even if it's just a fleeting romance, she's willing to give it a try.
"Pah! You're lucky you ran fast, what a bunch of trash..." Su Bai spat fiercely in the direction of the two of them.
She's chosen a son-in-law for Hua'er; anyone who dares to try and steal him will be beaten to a pulp! Two against two!
Su Hua shook her head helplessly and waved to her three brothers behind her, "Big brother, it's getting late. You should go to Qingshui County first, or you'll miss today's business."
Seeing that the farce was over, Su Dahu and his two companions readily agreed and skillfully carried the baskets of spicy hot pot skewers and the stove in the yard onto the carriage, heading towards Qingshui County.
The villagers who had been surrounding her didn't leave. Instead, they winked and smiled at Su Bai's mother. "Big Tiger's mother, I heard that the huge jujube village in the neighboring Wangjia Village has become part of your Su family. Is that true?"
Su Bai frowned slightly. "Who told you that?"
As he spoke, he subconsciously glanced at the Qian family behind the fence. The land deed for Zaozhuang had only been delivered this morning, and only his family knew about it.
The eldest son's wife was discreet, and the eldest daughter stayed in her room the whole time. News from Wangjia Village couldn't have spread so quickly. Only the second son's wife...
Qian lowered her head under the gaze, feeling guilty and somewhat confused. Sooner or later, people would find out about what happened in Zaozhuang. They were all from the same village, so what was wrong with her saying a few words?
Seeing her like this, Su Baishi knew perfectly well that this big mouth was the one who was talking nonsense. She thought for a moment, then glanced at the villagers and said, "This Zaozhuang, actually, was won back by my daughter Hua'er from the Prefect's daughter when she was playing with her. From now on, Zaozhuang belongs to my daughter..."
The Zaozhuang of her daughter and the Zaozhuang of the Su family are completely different. If her three silly sons were capable, they could go and win a village themselves. But if they wanted to cause trouble over this matter, she would be the first to disagree.
Upon hearing this, Madam Qian curled her lip indifferently. Su Hua, isn't she just from the Su family? Two hundred and fifty acres of land, what can she do by herself without the help of her brothers?
Thinking of this, the woman's eyes darted around. Her brother hadn't found work yet, so once he recovered, she would try to get him a job on the estate. There were no taboos associated with this estate, and her mother-in-law and the others probably wouldn't refuse. Besides, given her sister-in-law's ways, the wages would certainly be good…
Upon hearing Su Bai's words, the people of Shanghe Village fell into such silence that they could hear a pin drop.
They must have heard correctly, right? What did Old Lady Su say? Su Hua was playing with the daughter of the Prefect of Tangshan Prefecture?!
Moreover, Su Hua actually won a large estate from that rich young lady!
They can understand each word individually, but why can't they understand them when they're put together?
Aren't all rich young ladies supposed to be high and mighty? No matter how capable Su Hua is, she's just a peasant girl. How could she possibly get along with a daughter of an official?
Moreover, this is not just an ordinary daughter of an official, but the legitimate daughter of the prefectural governor!
In their eyes, the magistrate of Qingshui County was already a higher official than the sky, and the prefect of Tangshan Prefecture was an official several times higher. The difference between them and the peasants was like the clouds in the sky and the mud on the ground. They could never play together!
Meanwhile, Liang Siyu, hidden far away in the reeds at the edge of the village, listened to these words and suddenly felt uneasy.
