Chapter 12: Glory



Upon hearing this, most of the people glared angrily at the talkative woman.

Ning Jing, who had originally intended to ignore her to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, frowned and looked at the woman.

The woman was wearing a thin, floral-patterned jacket and patched brown trousers.

She has a thin, pointed face, and at first glance, she's quite attractive.

When Ning Jing looked over, the woman was not intimidated at all. She glared at Ning Jing with eyes as sharp as knives, as if she wanted to cut a piece of flesh off Ning Jing.

A kind-hearted old woman nearby couldn't help but sigh and advised the woman, "Widow Yang, please watch your mouth!"

We're both women, what good will it do you to ruin Ning Jing's reputation?

The widow Yang didn't hold back at all. She straightened her face and said angrily, "Pah! She did it, Ning Jing. Do you think I, Yang Jinhua, can't do it?"

Yesterday afternoon, a group of men, young and old, got into a fight over her. Am I just making things up?

Although Fu Xiuhua disliked her sister-in-law, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and redden her eyes when she heard someone say that.

"Sister-in-law Jin Hua, what do you mean by this?"

Yang Jinhua raised an eyebrow, snorted, and retorted, "What do you mean? I mean, Xiuhua, don't be ungrateful."

Your sister-in-law was just trying to warn you, but your parents have already been cursed to death by her!

Now that your brother is dead, and Ning Jing hasn't left any children for your Fu family, she'll have to remarry sooner or later.

"When that time comes, she'll pack up all your belongings and run away. Let's see how you siblings and you manage to survive with those crying, hungry twins."

Hearing Widow Yang's seemingly well-intentioned but actually divisive words, they were shocked.

Ning Jing reached out and pulled Fu Xiuhua away from her, then flung her away with a forceful jerk, sending the sickle flying.

As Yang Jinhua was speaking enthusiastically, her eyes blurred and she saw something being thrown at her. She instinctively dodged backward.

When she saw the sickle stuck diagonally on the ridge in front of her, she was so frightened that she let out a scream, her legs went weak, and she sat down on the ground with a thud.

"Widow Yang, is it? My husband is a soldier. He sheds blood and sweat for the country on the front lines, and you want him to shed tears even in the afterlife, even if he dies?"

I'm a military wife. Even if my husband sacrificed his life for the country, I'm still a martyr's family member. If you dare to slander a martyr's family member, I'll go talk to the village chief and find out what kind of crime it is to slander a martyr's family member.

After Ning Jing finished speaking decisively, she glanced sideways at Yang Jinhua, who was so frightened that her legs went weak and she didn't dare to utter a sound, and gave a cold laugh.

She had just thrown it at Yang Jinhua to scare her, and since she hadn't eaten breakfast, she was weak and had no strength at all.

There were still more than three meters between her and Yang Jinhua, so she couldn't possibly lose that far.

Surprisingly, Yang Jinhua, who seemed so picky about food, was not easily frightened.

Everyone present seemed to be seeing Ning Jing for the first time, as quiet as a chicken.

Besides Yang Jinhua, Fu Xiuhua was also frightened.

She stared wide-eyed at Ning Jing's retreating figure with a complicated expression.

Looking at her sister-in-law's slender back as she had just shielded her, tears welled up in her already red eyes.

Ning Jing seemed to sense that Xiu Hua was crying, and tilted her head slightly.

Why are you crying?

Even if your brother sacrificed his life, it was for the country, and that is an honor for our family.

If anyone dares to smear our family's honor, I, Ning Jing, will fight to the death to get justice from them.
