36. Chapter 36 Something is wrong



Xiaoxi originally just wanted to let her uncle know that Wang was really too much, and let her uncle protect her young lady in the future, but when she saw Han Yu's face getting colder and colder, and a sinister look flashed across his face from time to time, she shuddered in her heart. Did she say something wrong? The uncle was really much more terrible than the eldest and second young masters. No wonder when the uncle was angry, even her young lady didn't dare to do anything bad, let alone her little maid. In other words, she really didn't know what she said wrong!

"Aunt, uncle, what I said is the truth. Second Sister Han really did these things. I dare not lie to you. You can find out if you ask around in the village. I am just angry..." Although Xiaoxi was a little weak in front of Han Yu, she still had to protect him.

"Okay, I got it. I don't doubt what you said. You can go down first." Han Yu waved his hand. This maid was just like her master. Sometimes she was very smart, and sometimes she was very stupid. He was angry because of what Wang did. Why was she afraid? She was probably guilty. Xiaoxi had been in the Han family for so long. Han Yu knew the nature of his wife, the maid. She was the most protective of her master. Wang did these things to his wife. It would be strange if Xiaoxi could bear it and did nothing.

When Yang was working in the fields, she met the villagers. They all looked at her with scrutiny and whispered to each other. She felt a little strange. There was nothing special about her today. Did she not comb her hair well? Or did she not wash her face? It should be none of them. Yang even asked several daughters-in-law to help her check. There was nothing wrong. So why were these people looking at her so much?

Wang knew the reason and felt a little uneasy. She was deliberately spreading rumors about Su Wenyue to ruin her reputation. But these people could just talk about it in private. Why did they come to her mother-in-law to point fingers at her? Really! Her mother-in-law was protecting Su Wenyue. If she let her mother-in-law know that she was spreading bad things about Su Wenyue outside, she would definitely not be in a good situation.

"It's really strange. Why are these people hanging around our fields instead of working on their own fields?" Yang said curiously.

Wang felt uneasy, and when she saw Yang asking questions, she quickly came over and said, "Mom, just ignore them. I think they are just bored, and they probably heard some rumors. You know, ever since the fourth son's wife got married, there has been a lot of talk about her in our village. Some people even say that our fourth son is a gigolo and relies on his wife."

"This is true! There are still such rumors? Bullshit, our fourth son is an upright man, he is good at work and doing anything else. The wife of the fourth son was chosen by his father-in-law when he was still alive, she is not someone the fourth son wants to marry. These people are ignorant and are talking nonsense, they are just full and have nothing to do!"

The more Yang talked, the angrier she became. This was what she couldn't bear to hear the most. The person she valued the most was her eldest son Han Yu. She knew what her son was capable of, and how could he be a gigolo? At first, she thought that the fourth son's wife came from a good family, had good looks, and a good temperament. In short, she was good in everything and was a perfect match for her son. They were truly a match made in heaven. Now it seemed that the huge difference in family background was not a good thing, otherwise how could such rumors spread in the village? Thinking this way, she was not so satisfied with her eldest son's marriage.

"Yes, mother, that's right. These people just can't stand seeing our family doing well. But then again, what's the point of marrying such a high-class daughter-in-law? Not only can she not work, but our whole family has to flatter her. There's no benefit, and it only attracts a lot of gossip."

"Hey, Third Wife, why do you sound so wrong? I think you are the one who is favored by Fourth Wife. She is quite generous and treats her nephews and nieces very well. You are the only one in our family who has not received any benefits from her. But who told you to target her all day long? She has never offended you, right? You are just jealous!"

Seeing Wang saying bad things about people behind their backs again, Liu said unhappily that she was a straightforward person and what she hated most was people who were doing evil things behind their backs. Besides, the fourth son's wife was quite nice to her, so it was okay for her to say a few words for her, so that she wouldn't be stabbed behind her back by the third son's wife. However, with Liu's voice, although these words were spoken to Yang and Wang, everyone standing nearby heard them and became more curious. They all pricked up their ears, wondering if they could hear more.

Li heard the rumors in the village and knew that it was Wang who was doing something strange in the village. Those who had been working hard put down their hoes and spoke louder than usual.

"Yes, Third Sister-in-law, what you said is biased. The Fourth Wife can't do farm work, but she is good at housework at home, and she can read and write. I am grateful that she can enlighten my Baofu, and I respect her from the bottom of my heart. But Fourth Sister-in-law is easy to talk to. She never puts on airs in front of us, and is always friendly in front of her sisters-in-law. With such a temper, you may not find a better one even if you search the whole village. Third Sister-in-law, don't pick on her. Fourth Sister-in-law has done well enough. Besides, it's not her fault that she was born into a wealthy family."

"Why are you making such a loud noise? Second sister-in-law can't see that she is silent on weekdays, but she has a plan in mind. If you want to say it, your family has the most benefits from the fourth daughter-in-law, no wonder she is speaking for her."

Everyone spoke up for Su Wenyue. Wang looked unhappy and said to Li in a bad mood that she was just bullying Li because she was always gentle and honest. She didn't dare to confront the aggressive Liu and took her anger out on Li.

The second son, Han Ping, who was also working quietly at the side, saw his wife being bullied by Wang for saying a few fair words. Although he didn't dare to speak out to interrupt the women, his brows were tightly furrowed. The third son's wife was a troublemaker. She felt that life at home was too peaceful and wanted to stir up trouble from time to time.

Yang was also provoked by Wang just now, but after hearing what the eldest and second wives said, she came to her senses and glared at Wang in a warning. Wang looked embarrassed, but was relieved to see that Yang no longer mentioned the previous things, thinking that the matter was over. However, when she came back from working in the fields, Yang was called away by several familiar old sisters. She didn't know what they were doing, and Wang was worried.
