Yu Xiangcao was also taken aback. What was going on?
She just got home, less than half an hour ago!
Why are rumors spreading all over the village?
She clearly looked around and no one saw her. Could it be that someone was hiding in the shadows and spreading rumors everywhere?
What should we do?
Her reputation wasn't good to begin with, as she was divorced and stayed with her parents' family.
Although her family did not look down on her, the villagers also did not look down on her because of her parents and younger brothers.
Now that her reputation for having illicit relationships has spread, I'm afraid the villagers won't be able to tolerate her anymore.
Who exactly hates her so much, or rather, hates her family, that they would maliciously slander her and make her unable to stay in Zizhu Village?
Who exactly is it?
Yu Xiangcao began searching her memory.
"Vanilla, say something!"
I'm so anxious!
What exactly happened?
I don't believe you would do such a thing.
Vanilla doesn't even want to consider marriage, so how could she possibly have casual relationships with men?
"Sister Chunyan, don't worry, go and call my brother and Chengyuan back."
They're on the other side of the pond.
When you meet them, briefly explain the situation to them.
Have your older brother investigate who is spreading rumors in the village.
Tell Chengyuan to go to the Jiang family in the county town and invite Brother Jiang over.
"Leave this to me, eldest sister."
Liu Sulan remained calm and immediately spoke to Wang Chunyan.
"Okay, I'll go find them at the fishpond right now."
Wang Chunyan glanced at her best friend with concern before turning and leaving.
"Big sister, don't worry, sit down first."
Liu Sulan pulled her stunned older sister to sit next to her.
After Yu Xiangcao sat down, she regained her senses and immediately said anxiously, "Sulan, I haven't been having any casual relationships with men, and I haven't been intimate with any men."
I just...
Oh, it's all a misunderstanding, that's not how it happened.
"Big sister, of course I believe you. Don't I know what kind of person you are?"
Don't worry about the rumors; this matter will be resolved soon.
Tell me now, what exactly happened?
"Could it be that a man really did bring you back?"
Liu Sulan calmed Yu Xiangcao down, who was feeling a bit agitated.
Yu Xiangcao nodded. "Yes, someone did bring me back today. I didn't let them into the village; I just stopped them at the village entrance."
Because I was afraid that if someone saw me, it would cause unnecessary misunderstandings.
"After all, I'm a divorced woman, but I never expected to be seen like this."
"Then, sister, did Brother Jiang take you home?"
Liu Sulan already understood about 70-80% of what was going on. She thought to herself that her older sister had just said she was coming back a little late to help Brother Jiang.
So, besides him, there shouldn't be anyone else who took the older sister home.
My older sister is a very thoughtful and cautious person; she would never do anything that would be considered immoral.
Yu Xiangcao nodded, "Brother Jiang brought me back, but we didn't get intimate..."
We were just, just…
It's not entirely accurate to say there was no intimacy, since she had her arms around his lower back at the time.
It's possible that someone really saw it, but you just didn't realize it.
If it was really seen, then saying they were being intimate wouldn't be entirely a fabrication.
What do we do now?
If she didn't see it, she can deny it, but if she did see it, how can she explain it?
The villagers probably wouldn't believe that she was only holding onto his lower back because she was afraid of falling.
"Just what?"
Seeing that her eldest sister seemed hesitant to speak, Liu Sulan continued to ask.
"But I did have my arm around Brother Jiang's waist..."
At this moment, the courtyard gate was pushed open, and a large group of people rushed in, led by Li Hehua.
"Fellow villagers, I didn't lie to you, did I?"
Yu Xiangcao herself admitted that she was brought back by a man, and that she even had her arms around his waist.
"Fellow villagers, a woman like this, fickle and dissolute, should no longer remain in our Zizhu Village."
Yu Xiangcao looked at the seven or eight people and immediately turned pale. They had overheard her words, and she was now truly speechless.
Liu Sulan sneered inwardly: It seems these people were brought by Li Hehua.
That means Li Hehua was the one spreading the rumors.
That pesky fly is really annoying; it buzzes around all day long, it's so noisy.
"Vanilla, are you out of your mind? How could you do something so immoral?"
You've completely disgraced your parents.
Someone in the crowd said.
"I don't………
Fellow villagers, you should know what kind of person I am!
I grew up in Zizhu Village, how could I be so shameless!
“Yu Xiangcao, you don’t need to put on an act here. You just admitted it yourself, so why are you saying it didn’t happen now? My fellow villagers and I heard it. We’re not deaf.”
Li Hehua's face was full of mockery, and she felt a sense of satisfaction as if she had finally gotten her revenge.
She had no way to deal with Yu Dazhu and his wife, as well as the Yu Chengyuan brothers, so being able to ruin Yu Xiangcao's reputation was a win-win situation.
"Shut up, Li Hehua! Don't spout nonsense here, don't spread rumors and cause trouble!"
"Don't believe her, folks. She's always been against us. She's getting revenge. Don't fall for her tricks."
Liu Sulan immediately reprimanded Li Hehua, knowing that she wanted to ruin her sister-in-law's reputation.
