Chapter 147 Strange Screams
Faintly, there seemed to be a white figure floating behind the black cat.
Zhang Guifang was so scared that the hairs on her back stood up.
Suddenly, the white shadow swooped down towards her. Zhang Guifang screamed, her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
Her scream woke up the Su family who were sleeping.
Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly moved his elder brother's white shirt that was hanging outside back to the clothesline.
Then he threw a sausage outside the courtyard wall.
The black cat that was temporarily requisitioned and was about to come to the house to steal food saw a sausage that suddenly fell outside the courtyard wall, and pounced on it with a "woof".
With a creaky sound, the door opened and Su Wenbing came out with a messy hair. "Who, who's outside?"
The only answer he got was the rustling of leaves in the wind. Su Wenbing knocked on Su Xiaoxiao's window worriedly. "Third sister, are you okay?"
He seemed to have heard a woman's scream just now. Could it be the third sister?
But he quickly dismissed the idea.
Su Xiaoxiao's vague voice came from the room: "Brother, what's wrong? I'm fine."
"I'm glad you're okay."
Maybe I heard it wrong.
Su Wenbing scratched his head and looked around the yard, but found nothing unusual, and the strange screams did not appear again.
He wrapped his coat tightly around him and went back to his room to sleep.
The next morning, before Su Xiaoxiao even opened her eyes, she heard a familiar harsh voice coming from outside: "Boss's wife, get out of here!"
Isn't this the voice of her cheap grandmother Wang Chunhua? Did she take the wrong medicine again so early in the morning?
Su Xiaoxiao immediately got up from the bed. Her mother had always been bullied by this grandma, so she had to go out and help.
She hurriedly put on her clothes and went out in her slippers.
As soon as I went out, I saw Grandma Wang Chunhua pinching her waist and pointing at Liu Cuilan's nose and scolding her in the yard.
"Eldest son's wife, over the years, the second son's family has been very kind to your family. How could you be so cruel? Look at what you've done to the second son's wife? Don't you feel guilty?"
Hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao burst out laughing uncontrollably.
Wang Chunhua heard the voice and immediately glared at her: "What are you laughing at, you little bitch?"
"Nothing, it's just the first time I've seen someone lie with their eyes open, so I'm a little curious."
After she finished speaking, she pulled Su Jianwu over and pointed at Wang Chunhua, saying, "See? From now on, we should learn more from Grandma and Second Aunt. They have thicker skin than the city walls, but our Grandma and Second Aunt have skin that grows directly on the city walls. If you two learn this skill, you can even get one more bowl of rice than others when you go out begging."
Wang Chunhua's face immediately darkened: "What nonsense are you talking about, you little bitch? Who's shameless?"
Su Xiaoxiao scratched her face. "Then I must have heard wrongly. If I remember correctly, Second Aunt cut off all ties with my family from the day my father got into trouble. How could she say she treated us well?"
Without waiting for Wang Chunhua to speak, she said with a look of complete understanding, "I know. Grandma's not mean-spirited. She's referring to the time when our family was on the verge of starvation and my mom went to beg for food but Second Aunt threw dirty water out the door. Or was it that Second Aunt and you took the betrothal gift from the village chief and forced me to marry his idiot son, or was it that she found out I got accepted into the department store and wanted to take advantage of me?"
The villagers who were watching the excitement around immediately started talking when they heard this.
"The Su family and this old woman are really worthless."
"That's right. When they're in trouble, they rush to distance themselves from it, but when they're doing well, they rush to take advantage of them."
"Bah, shameless! Who knows what you're up to this time."
Zhang Guifang was supported by her eldest son Su Zhiqiang. Her left leg and right arm were wrapped in bandages, and her face had several cuts. She looked very miserable and pitiful, but no one at the scene sympathized with her.
Wang Chunhua's face was bruised and red. "Even if your Second Aunt was wrong in the past, she is still your elder. How could you deliberately scare her and throw her like this? This is simply treasonous."
That's right. After Zhang Guifang recovered from her shock, she thought that the Su family knew that she was outside the courtyard wall and deliberately scared her, causing her to fall. That's why they brought the old lady and her son to settle the score.
"Okay, you said we scared her. Show me the evidence? When did we scare her? Why did we scare her? Where did we scare her?"
"Last night, at the foot of the western wall, at midnight..."
Seeing Su Xiaoxiao's expression, Zhang Guifang became even more certain that what happened last night was related to her. She subconsciously followed her words and started talking. Halfway through her words, she was suddenly interrupted by Liu Cuilan with a dark face.
"Zhang Guifang, what are you doing here at my wall so late at night?"
"I……"
Zhang Guifang was blocked by this sentence. She originally wanted to see the docking channel of Artemisia argyi, but not only did she not see it, she was frightened and fell like this.
But I definitely can't say this to Liu Cuilan.
"Yeah, why are you squatting under someone's wall so late at night instead of sleeping? What are you doing?"
"Could he be a psychopath? Otherwise, why would a good person squat under someone else's wall instead of sleeping?"
"That's right. Either he's mentally perverted or he has other motives."
At this point, everyone's eyes looking at Zhang Guifang suddenly became strange.
Those who were closer to her took a step back in unison, their expressions of disgust obvious.
Zhang Guifang: “…”
She really couldn't explain this matter clearly. She originally thought that the Su family had discovered her and was deliberately scaring her to take advantage of the opportunity to extort some money. Who knew...
Her face flushed red and she was speechless. Wang Chunhua looked at her and said, "Second son's wife, tell us what you were doing last night. You came to deliver something to the eldest son's family, but you ended up getting scared by them."
Wang Chunhua spoke angrily, but after she finished speaking, she found that no one around responded to her.
"You're here by the wall in the middle of the night, Second Auntie. Are you here to deliver something or to scare someone to death?"
Su Xiaoxiao spoke with a smile.
When everyone heard this, their eyes fell on Zhang Guifang again.
Zhang Guifang's face turned the color of liver. In a panic, she tugged at Su Zhiqiang's sleeve and whispered, "Boss, forget it. Let's not pursue this matter anymore. Hurry and take Mom home. I have a stomachache."
When Su Zhiqiang heard her say that she had a stomachache, he hurriedly helped her to leave. As a result, a gust of wind blew and blew the hat off Zhang Guifang's head.
Everyone's eyes suddenly lit up: Wow, what a shiny boiled egg!
For some reason, Zhang Guifang's hair has not grown back since she was struck by lightning last time. Now her head is still bald under her hat.
Her face turned dark and she hurriedly bent down to pick up the hat on the ground, but another gust of wind blew and the hat was blown away by the wind.
