"This scholar lady feels like she's performing an opera..."
"Although Taohua girl is dry and cool, but for some reason, she is not pretty. I always want to see that kind of..."
“…”
Some people were talking in low voices. Women are the source of gossip.
After hearing this, Ye Xiyan's smug expression instantly turned into anger. She couldn't control her mouth and blurted out, "You did it on purpose, right?"
Zhao Taohua was stunned. After repeated confirmation, she realized that Ye Xiyan was talking to her. She said with a smile: "What do you mean by intentional?"
"You dressed up so beautifully on purpose to seduce Mu Zhi?"
There was an uproar all around, even the fairies would be jealous.
If it were in the past, Ye Xiyan would be so happy when she was jealous of Zhou Muzhi, but now he has an indescribable...uncomfortable feeling.
"ha……"
Zhao Taohua was about to die of laughter.
"Zhou Muzhi didn't even want me, and he even tried to seduce me. I'm not crazy, am I? Are you wondering why I dressed up? Well, I just changed into some dry, comfortable clothes, washed my face, and didn't dress up. I just happened to be four or five years younger than you. I heard Miss Ye will be turning 30 this year. Congratulations! A woman three years older than you is bound to be rich."
"you……"
Ye Xiyan was so angry that she almost died.
The surrounding villagers only then realized that Ye Xiyan was older than Zhou Muzhi, and Zhao Taohua was two years younger than Zhou Muzhi.
It’s really... the opposite of Tiangang.
Old Lady Zhao continued sarcastically, "Shameless! How can a city woman talk so politely? And you're trying to seduce your husband. Are you even worthy? You're like an old peacock with its tail spread out, your asshole exposed, and you're still showing off. What are you talking about? You're like peeling an old cucumber, and you're pretending to be young."
"Hahaha……"
Country people tend to be more straightforward, and this immediately caused laughter from everyone around.
"Don't bully my mother."
Zhou Yaozu, who was standing aside, although he didn't quite understand the twists and turns between adults, could see clearly that the Zhao family members bullied Ye's mother, and he would never tolerate it.
Immediately, the small man rushed towards Zhao Taohua like a cannonball. It was all this woman's fault anyway.
Zhao Taohua became alert when she heard the sound, and immediately turned around and dodged.
Zhou Yaozu missed his move and crashed into the table behind him with a bang, which then hit his head and made a big bump. He grimaced and cried.
"Oh, my eldest grandson, Zhao Taohua, you are so cruel. He is your own son, how could you have the heart to kill him?" Old Mrs. Zhou cried and accused.
Zhao Taohua spread her hands and shouted, "Everyone saw it. I didn't fight. I couldn't even dodge even though I couldn't beat them. Are you not even going to let me dodge? Do I, Zhao Taohua, deserve to be bullied by the Zhou family? When in the world is there such justice?"
"Yeah, if someone hits you, it's polite not to fight back. You won't even let me hide. You're a bandit."
"I think they're even worse than bandits. When bandits come, they leave scars on their heads, and yet the Zhou family, both adults and children, are still pestering them..."
Compared to Ye Xiyan, the unattainable fairy, the peasant women felt more sympathetic towards Zhao Taohua's experience, so they started to accuse her.
Zhou Muzhi didn't expect that he was a scholar after all, but his fellow villagers would be so disrespectful to him?
But Zhao Taohua knew better than her that if you don't give substantive benefits to the lower-class people, they will pay attention to you. If Zhou Muzhi shouted, "After the meal, everyone go to my house and get two eggs each," the public opinion would change immediately.
But does he dare to say that?
"Thank you for your understanding, fellow villagers. From now on, if anyone in Hedong Village sells chickens or pigs, please give them to me. I'll always pay a pound more than the market price..."
