Chapter 105 Hanged at the Entrance of the Police Station
Zhong Xiaoxiao was so angry at her words that she trembled all over and almost burst into tears: "You, you're talking nonsense!"
The old woman with the crooked mouth continued sarcastically, "I'm talking nonsense? Look at those two, they're practically glued to each other! Their relationship is obviously not normal!"
Song Xingzhi's face was also terribly gloomy.
It's one thing for this old woman to talk about him, but how could she say such things about his sister Chunxue?
"you……"
He had barely uttered a single word when Zhang Chunxue stopped him, looking at the crooked-mouthed old woman with a half-smile.
"You really know how to spout nonsense. Is your mouth crooked because you've been saying too many of these heinous things?"
"You can talk about such baseless things with such certainty. Those who know you know you're just spouting nonsense out of jealousy; those who don't might think you were hiding under the bed watching us cheat!"
The others in the ward couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Upon hearing this, Song Xingzhi blushed slightly, feeling both amused and exasperated.
His sister Chunxue really doesn't discriminate between meat and vegetables.
The crooked mouth was a constant source of pain for the old woman.
She was born with a mouth that wasn't quite right, and she almost couldn't get married when she was young because of it. Now that Zhang Chunxue had directly hit her sore spot, she was so angry that she trembled all over.
"You, you're talking nonsense! I, I was born this way!"
Zhang Chunxue immediately realized: "Oh, I understand!"
"You were just like this in your past life, so God gave you a crooked mouth... I didn't expect you to still not learn your lesson in this life!"
"Looks like you'll be born with a crooked mouth in your next life too."
The old woman with the crooked mouth was so angry that her blood pressure soared: "You, you, you..."
She hesitated for a long time, but couldn't get the words out.
Zhang Chunxue ignored her and turned to look at Zhong Xiaoxiao with a serious expression: "In the future, if others say such inexplicable things, don't rush to prove yourself. Doing so will only lead you into a self-proving trap."
"Because the person who is wronged knows better than you how wronged you are."
She patted Zhong Xiaoxiao's arm: "Have you forgotten what I told you before? These people spreading rumors just think that your anxious explanation satisfies their twisted desires... They just want to see you panic."
Zhong Xiaoxiao then remembered that Zhang Chunxue had indeed told her these things, because of the rumors spread by those people in the village that she had seduced Teacher Song!
She immediately felt a pang of regret: "Mom, I was so angry with him that I completely forgot!"
Zhang Chunxue said gently, "You're still young, it's normal for you to be impatient."
"You'll see later. For people like this, even giving them a glance is considered a favor..."
"The best way is to ignore her."
Zhong Xiaoxiao nodded heavily, but couldn't help but ask again, "But what if what she said gets back to other people and they think the same thing?"
Zhang Chunxue smiled again: "This kind of thing is easy to solve, we can just report it to the police, right?"
“She damaged my reputation, so of course I can report her to the police and have her arrested.”
The old woman with the crooked mouth was still cursing, but when she heard Zhang Chunxue say that she would call the police, she immediately became like a chicken with its neck being choked, and couldn't say a word.
But then she rolled her eyes and sneered, "Ha! You'd report this to the police? Do you think the police would even listen to you?"
She raised her chin smugly: "I only said a few words, do you think the police would arrest me?"
Zhang Chunxue said leisurely, "Who knows? After all, if I were to hang myself in front of the police station, do you think they would handle the matter?"
"After all, if the police officers don't stand up for the people and drive innocent civilians to their deaths, do you think they shouldn't be afraid?"
Her smile grew even warmer as she looked at the crooked-mouthed old woman: "When the time comes, you will be responsible for every word you spread, every sentence you utter, and for every person who hears it. You will have to explain to them one by one, and let everyone know that you are a person who is utterly wicked in life and will go to the hell of tongue-pulling after death, a person who only knows how to throw mud at others when you open your mouth."
She clapped her hands: "At that time, not only you, but your family, your sons and daughters, your grandchildren, will be looked down upon and unable to hold their heads high for the rest of their lives."
The old woman with the crooked mouth turned completely green.
Of course, she didn't believe things could really get that serious, and immediately retorted defiantly, "Stop talking nonsense! I don't believe you'd actually dare to hang yourself in front of the police station!"
Zhang Chunxue shrugged: "Whether I hang myself or not is irrelevant. I'll just go to the police station every day with a rope, ready to hang myself. Do you think the police officers will be scared?"
Now the old woman with the crooked mouth was completely speechless.
The old man who spoke first finally couldn't help but chime in: "Hey lady, could you please say less?"
"This is entirely your fault! It has nothing to do with you whatsoever, yet you had to step in and interfere!"
"They're not even bothering with you, yet you're still spreading rumors and misinformation..."
Other patients also spoke up.
"Exactly! What's wrong with that young lady doing a good deed by adopting a poor, helpless child?"
"That's right! I didn't spend your money, and I didn't eat a single meal from your house!"
"I don't know what you're muttering to yourself here..."
Seeing that she had become the target of everyone's criticism, the crooked-mouthed old lady became even more furious.
She slammed her hand on the edge of the bed: "Fine! Fine! You're all teaming up against me, aren't you?"
"When my son comes, I'm going to have a serious talk with him!"
Song Xingzhi raised an eyebrow: "Oh? Your son? Who is your son?"
The old woman with the crooked mouth immediately became smug: "My son is a clerk in town! He's an official!"
Zhang Chunxue immediately looked at Song Xingzhi: "Xingzhi, do you know him?"
Song Xingzhi shook his head: "I don't know what his son's name is, so I'm not sure either."
Although the old lady with the crooked mouth was somewhat unreasonable, she was not a stupid person after all.
Upon hearing this, her heart skipped a beat, and she immediately asked, "You...you're also from this town? You're...an official?"
Song Xingzhi smiled warmly: "I'm not an official."
Just as the old woman with the crooked mouth breathed a sigh of relief, Song Xingzhi continued to speak.
“I serve the people; I am a public servant. How can I be considered an official?”
The old woman's face immediately darkened.
Zhong Xiaoxiao immediately chimed in smugly, "Oh my! Teacher Song, the office director, is indeed a public servant. I just wonder, Grandma, what kind of official is your son that allows you to be so arrogant?"
The words "office director" became the final blow that broke down the old woman's psychological defenses.
