As long as she doesn't admit that she stole the secret recipe, she can shamelessly stay in Jiangjuntun.
Anyway, no one can prove her identity.
Thinking this way, the old lady suddenly felt more confident. If Liu Nian didn't give in, it meant she couldn't tolerate an old lady like herself, so she would incite others to curse her.
As soon as the old lady entered Jiangjuntun, she saw a group of people. She quickly put on an act and said, "Oh dear, you know, this unlucky child insisted on going to the county town to play. As a result, we got lost and had a lot of trouble to get back."
"What happened to your face?" Dai Cuihua mocked. "Did you get beaten up because you mistook someone for a thief?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" The old lady looked awkward and didn't dare to look at her.
"You stole my things, and you ran away so fast, but why did you come back?" Liu Nian sneered as she walked out of the crowd. She had been waiting for her for several days.
The old woman's face darkened. "I didn't steal anything! You're framing me! Is it because you can't stand an old woman like me and are deliberately trying to smear me?"
"Fellow villagers—" The old woman pretended to lie down on the ground, ready to throw a tantrum, but everyone just stared at her coldly.
"She, she's unfilial!" The old lady pointed at Liu Nian, somewhat bewildered, and said, "Your daughter-in-law is unfilial to her elders, why don't you say anything about her?"
"Give me a break! You liar, trying to freeload off someone, and you're pretending to be an elder! Bah!" Zhang Suzhen spat at the old woman. "Get the hell out of here with your bastard!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" The old lady shoved Su Zhimeng forward. "She's a child of the Su family, Su Xu's younger brother! What bastard?"
"Su Zhimeng is the son of Wang Xiuzhi and your son, born from their affair!" Zhang Suzhen shouted at the crowd. "Just a few years ago, he was that old man who used to go from street to street trading rice for trinkets!"
Her sister told her everything, and Zhang Suzhen spat on the ground again.
"How disgusting!"
Cell phones are really great; in just a few days, they dug up the old woman's background. It turned out that the old woman was the mother of the man who went from house to house.
Of course, Liu Nian had no evidence to prove that Su Zhimeng was born from Wang Xiuzhi's affair, but the old lady's attitude spoke volumes.
The old lady's expression immediately changed.
Her son never married and died recently. Before he died, he told her that he had another son outside of marriage, and also talked about the entanglements between Wang Xiuzhi and Zhang Shiwan, as well as the various issues with the Su family.
The old lady did some calculations and then came over. But when she heard that Liu Nian and her husband were living a very good life, she decided to make up an identity and freeload at Liu Nian's house.
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately became indignant, exclaiming, "You old lady, you've done it all—cheating, swindling, and stealing!"
Liu Nian sighed, "Su Xu was so happy when he heard that he had a grandmother, but what happened? He's a liar! My man's hopes were dashed, and he was deceived in his feelings. He's lost a lot of weight these past few days."
"Su Xu is pitiful. His whole family is unreliable, and the only person he's ever been dutiful to is the woman who killed his own mother! He finally gets a relative, but she's a fraud! Why is Su Xu so unlucky!"
"That old woman deserves to die!"
Just then, Su Hang rushed over. Su Zhimeng had inexplicably disappeared for a few days. At first, he was worried, but then he thought that he wouldn't have to take a burden with him, and he was secretly happy. He never expected that Su Hang would come back.
"Su Hang, Su Zhimeng and my Su Xu are not related by blood at all. Don't come to our house making demands in the future!" Liu Nian raised an eyebrow and said sarcastically, "That's your own brother!"
Is he going to support Su Zhimeng all by himself? He can barely afford to live on his own. Su Hang suddenly felt incredibly annoyed.
"Heh, why are you back?" Su Hang said irritably, "Go back with your dear grandma."
"You're his brother! You can't just ignore him!" The old lady pushed Su Zhimeng forward. "You two have the same mother!"
"He's not a member of the Su family!"
...
The two started hurling insults at each other, like dogs fighting, and Liu Nian coughed and kindly reminded them, "Auntie, where's the stuff you stole from my house? Give it back to me."
The old woman was taken aback. "Isn't it fake?"
Liu Nian blinked. "Really."
Could it be that the young man was lying to her and didn't want to give her the money? The old lady's face immediately trembled with anger.
No way! She has to settle the score with that young man!
