The person who was talking in front of everyone with saliva flying everywhere at this moment was Zhao Chunxiang's mother Xie Peilan.
She has always been upset about Lin Xuanjiao not lending her daughter a bicycle, and has complained to many people about this matter these days.
"You don't understand! This educated youth from the big city just can't stand us country folk. She refused to lend my Ah Xiang her bicycle even when asked to. You'd better not get along with this kind of person. The farther away from her, the better."
Because Xie Peilan had her back to Lin Xuanjiao, she had no idea that the protagonist of her words was silently watching her from behind.
The others who saw this didn't dare to breathe, for fear of making Lin Xuanjiao angry and getting into trouble.
Xie Peilan was still wondering why all these people were silent and lowered their heads like children who had made a mistake. They were all fine just now, how could they suddenly become like this?
"What's wrong with you guys? Weren't you chatting with me just now? Why are you all silent now?"
Xie Peilan only received silence as an answer. A few of the loyal people frantically winked at her, trying to get her to pay attention to the people behind her and stop talking.
But Xie Peilan was like a fool. No matter how they tried to signal, she acted like a moron and didn't understand. She asked them foolishly what was wrong and why so many people had eye cramps.
Lin Xuanjiao was originally still angry, but Xie Peilan's behavior made her laugh. Never mind! She was lucky today, so she didn't have to argue with her too much, but it was okay to scare her.
Xie Peilan was originally wondering what was going on with these people when suddenly a clear and pleasant voice sounded behind her. The voice was so beautiful that she felt that even her own daughter could not compare to it.
"Let me hear what you were talking about just now."
"Oh! What else can I say? Isn't she just that tigress? So stingy, really..." Xie Peilan didn't continue with the rest of the words because she felt a little cold!
This time, Xie Peilan finally realized slowly that those people who were winking at her frantically must be someone behind them. She was not very familiar with the voice just now, so it might be a stranger. Who made these people feel like they were facing a great enemy and become speechless?
Xie Peilan slowly turned around and looked behind her. She immediately saw the face she least wanted to see. It was terrifying! Why was this person here? Didn't they say they didn't like to walk around the village? Why did they run into him now?
Lin Xuanjiao looked at Xie Peilan's immediately frozen expression, and found it amusing. She continued to ask, "Keep talking! Let me continue to listen."
Xie Peilan forced a smile that was uglier than crying: "Lin Zhiqing! What a coincidence! You are here too!"
Seeing Xie Peilan's expression, Lin Xuanjiao only found it amusing and not angry at all, so she could continue to tease Xie Peilan: "It's quite a coincidence. I was planning to walk right past you guys, but I happened to hear you guys talking about me. I'm really curious about what you were talking about me."
Thinking about what she had just said, Xie Peilan felt a little scared. She had also seen Lin Xuanjiao's brutal beatings before, so she wondered if the slap would land on her face this time! Whether it was embarrassing or not was another matter. She just felt that it would hurt. She didn't know how long Lin Xuanjiao had been listening to her, and she just hoped she hadn't heard it.
Xie Peilan prayed frantically in her heart, but on the surface she had to pretend to be a kind elder: "We didn't say anything just now, we just said that you are beautiful and have a good personality. Who knows which brat you will get in the future."
The villagers listening in all thought Xie Peilan was quite the hypocrite! Just moments before, she'd been cursing Lin Xuanjiao in front of them, yet now, she couldn't even say a word in front of her. She was quite capable of saying one thing to one person and another to another. At least they couldn't do that.
"Really?" Lin Xuanjiao looked at Xie Peilan with a playful look, which made Xie Peilan feel a little scared.
Although she was a little scared, Xie Peilan insisted on what she had said just now, but her words were a little stammering: "Dangdang... Of course... Of course!"
This person's reaction was hilarious! She had been here for so many days, and today was the only day she had been so amused.
Because of her good mood, Lin Xuanjiao still had the patience to continue asking: "You are Zhao Chunxiang's mother, right?"
Hearing her daughter's name, Xie Peilan's heart skipped a beat. Why did he suddenly mention her daughter? Could it be that everything she said just now was heard? Thinking of this situation, Xie Peilan felt a little pain on her face.
Although she really didn't want to pay attention to what Lin Xuanjiao said, due to her reputation as someone who was not easy to mess with, Xie Peilan answered honestly, "I am. If Ah Xiang makes you angry, don't take it to heart. This little girl has been spoiled by us parents. You will understand this feeling when you have children in the future."
Lin Xuanjiao stopped Xie Peilan from continuing, "Alright, stop spouting these empty words. I'm going to tell you right now, what if I didn't lend your daughter the bicycle?"
"What can I do? What else can I do?" Xie Peilan smiled awkwardly. "Of course, it's your own decision about your bicycle. It's up to you whether I lend it to you or not."
Lin Xuanjiao smiled brightly: "Is that so! It seems that you also understand this principle. I thought you didn't understand it!"
Lin Xuanjiao reached out to touch Xie Peilan's cheek, hoping to scare the woman who was talking bad about her behind her back.
In the end, Lin Xuanjiao still underestimated how brutal she was in the eyes of these people. She had just raised her hand, and before she even touched Xie Peilan, Xie Peilan decisively ran away.
As he ran, he shouted loudly, "Lin Zhiqing, I remembered that the firewood in my house is still burning. I'll go back and check it out."
Lin Xuanjiao watched Xie Peilan run away without stopping her. She glanced at the people around her and said, "You'd better watch your mouths."
After saying this, Lin Xuanjiao ignored the group of people who were gossiping and quickly rode away from everyone on her bicycle.
Those who stayed behind looked at each other in bewilderment: "This educated youth Lin is getting bolder and bolder. Looking at her arrogant attitude just now, who would have thought she was a female educated youth who had just gone to the countryside!"
"Why didn't you call her arrogant to her face just now?"
"Of course I'm scared! Aren't you afraid that Lin Zhiqing will slap you in the face?"
