After Shi Nian's rumors spread, Xiao Cao and Xiu Juan were extremely busy!
On one hand, they had to explain to Shi Nian!
Shi Nian didn't hook up with any older men!
It's all a rumor!
On the other hand, they also had to keep it a secret from Grandpa and Grandma Shi!
We must not let these rumors reach Grandpa and Grandma's ears!
Especially Grandpa Shi!
He's getting old!
Moreover, they are old-fashioned!
If such rumors were to reach Grandpa Shi's ears, he would be furious!
Because my beloved granddaughter was slandered like this!
How could Grandpa Shi possibly stand it!
Grandpa and Grandma Shi had to keep it a secret, and so did Shi Nian.
The rumors circulating in the slums must not be known to Shi Nian.
Xiujuan thought it was impossible.
Grandpa and Grandma Shi might still be able to keep it a secret!
But Shi Nian is someone caught in the vortex of rumors; how could she possibly hide it!
But the grass doesn't care!
It must be kept a secret.
"If Niannian knew, she would be heartbroken!" Xiaocao said. "Niannian hates people who would sell everything for money, but she's been slandered like this. I can't even imagine how sad she would be if she knew!"
Shi Nian is a treasure to the little grass!
So the little grass was afraid that Shi Nian would suffer even the slightest harm!
Seeing Xiaocao's determination, Xiujuan had no choice but to keep it a secret too!
However, they managed to hide it no matter what!
That's when Tian Shi Nian found out!
The reason was that Shi Nian returned to the slums.
Everything was peaceful before.
After all, people aren't stupid.
It's fine to just say it behind Shi Nian's back!
It's impossible for him to go up to Shi Nian himself and say it.
But just as Shi Nian, Xiu Juan, and Xiao Cao went to the fields to plant rice seedlings for Grandpa Shi, a man found Shi Nian.
This man was in his forties and had been idle all his life, living off his parents' meager income.
The man initially fawned over Shi Nian, flattering him repeatedly.
When she saw him, he ignored her and went straight to the point.
"Shi Nian, I heard that Xiao Hu's father got a job in the rich area. You helped him get it. Can you help me get a job too?"
Before Shi Nian could answer, the man continued, "I want a high-paying job that doesn't involve too much work, something very easy. After all, what can Xiao Hu's father, a disabled person, do? It must be a very easy job. Just find me a very easy job like that."
Shi Nian glanced at the man and continued planting rice seedlings.
The man kept chasing after Shi Nian, saying, "Hey Shi Nian, did you hear what I said?!"
Shi Nian remained unresponsive.
The man was now furious.
He raised his voice eight octaves: "What's wrong with you! I've been talking to you for so long! Are you deaf and pretending you didn't hear me?!"
Shi Nian finally spoke.
She said, "I heard you, no way!"
The man was stunned for a moment, and it took him several seconds to understand what Shi Nian meant!
This is to tell him!
Help me find a job? No way!
The man was furious. He pointed at Shi Nian and said, "Shi Nian, our families are related, aren't we? You won't help us! You've got no relation to Xiao Hu's dad, but you're helping him! What do you mean by this?!"
"You're introducing a job to a disabled person! But you won't even introduce a job to a able-bodied person like me? Who do you think you are!"
Shi Nian gave a cold laugh.
She didn't want to say it!
But the other party kept rambling on and on!
Then she wouldn't hold back!
Shi Nian said, "I just look down on you! Although Xiao Hu's father is disabled, he is hardworking and willing to endure hardship! And you! Although you have all four limbs, you are lazy and love to eat!"
Such a lazy and gluttonous person!
There's no need to help!
It would be a waste of time to help!
The man was utterly ashamed and enraged by what Shi Nian said!
He yelled at the top of his lungs, "Shi Nian! You look down on me! You think you're so great! You think you're something special just because you're in the rich neighborhood now! I spoke to you politely and asked you to introduce me to a job! And you still yelled at me! Who do you think you are!"
"So you think just because you're in the rich neighborhood you're rich! And that you have the right to lecture me! Bah! Don't think I don't know how you got into the rich neighborhood! You bitch!"
"You hooked up with an old man! That's why you went to the rich neighborhood! Let me tell you! The whole slum knows! Everyone's talking about you behind your back! They say you're shameless! They say you're a slut!"
"I'm the only one who still takes you seriously, coming all the way here to ask you to help me find a job! And you're so ungrateful, you..."
The man couldn't continue.
Because Xiaocao grabbed a bamboo basket and swung it at her forcefully: "Go away! Go right now! You're not allowed to talk to Niannian like that! Get out of here!"
Xiujuan snapped out of her daze and ran over too.
Her fist landed on the man as well.
The two women, one big and one small, attacked, and the man was finding it difficult to defend himself.
He cursed viciously, "You filthy bitch!"
He ran away after yelling at me.
Shi Nian remained standing still.
When the little grass saw this, it almost cried!
She knew that these rumors must not reach Niannian's ears!
Thinking about it will break your heart.
"Niannian, don't listen to his nonsense, he's just talking nonsense." Xiaocao comforted Shi Nian: "Don't care what he says."
"How long has it been?" Shi Nian asked after a long pause.
Since the other party said that the entire slum already knows, it's probably been going on for more than just a day or two.
Sure enough, Xiujuan's words later confirmed Shi Nian's guess.
Xiujuan forced herself to say, "It's been several days."
Shi Nian's heart sank, and a hint of anxiety flashed in her eyes: "Do my grandparents know?"
Xiaocao and Xiujuan immediately shook their heads like rattles.
"I don't know, I don't know!"
"Don't worry about me, Niannian. We've been keeping it a secret from Grandpa and Grandma Shi. They don't know anything about it."
“............”
Shi Nian let out a heavy sigh of relief!
Thank goodness!
Grandpa and Grandma don't know yet!
But after feeling relieved, a cold light gradually appeared in Shi Nian's eyes.
Rumors suddenly spread, and the whole slum knew about it; someone was definitely behind it.
And who is it?
Shi Nian could only think of one person!
Timely rain!
...
Night fell.
Shi Nian was sharpening a knife.
She was holding a small knife in her hand.
Shi Nian had already sharpened the knife to a very fine point.
It can cut through iron like mud!
Seeing Shi Nian sharpening the knife, one person was terrified! Their legs trembled!
