Su Ruanruan raised her eyes and looked at Li Shi, "So what if I'm dirty? So what if I'm infamous? But I never thought of marrying someone to ruin a good young man."
“But… some people…” Su Ruanruan’s gaze was like a knife as she looked at Wang Chunya. Her ambiguous smile made Wang Chunya break out in a cold sweat.
What does Su Ruanruan mean? Does she know something?
Impossible, impossible, how could she possibly know? No one would have found out.
"Wang Chunya, what's the panic? Have you done something shameful that you're afraid people will find out?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? I didn't do that. Don't ruin my reputation."
"Nothing is best. Let me ask you... your mother is blocking us from leaving, what do you think we should do?"
Li swallowed hard. After going around in circles for so long, they finally got to the point. She immediately cleared her throat and was about to interrupt again.
Su Ruanruan glanced at her, "I was asking about Wang Chunya."
Wang Chunya looked at her mother somewhat guiltily, afraid that her mother would discover something from Su Ruanruan's words, but she saw her mother secretly stick out two fingers.
Li's chest heaved violently, angered by Su Ruanruan.
They had just asked for one or two taels of silver as compensation, but if they can't come up with two taels of silver now, they won't be leaving Qingshui Village.
Su Ruanruan narrowed her eyes slightly. They were really greedy. They knew the Duan family was proposing marriage today, and they had five taels of silver on them. They were trying to rob them.
Trying to mess with her family? Dream on.
"Two taels, you must compensate me for the loss of two taels of silver. After the commotion you caused today, my reputation is ruined. Who would want to marry me now?"
Then the neighbors who were watching the commotion started talking all at once.
Some mischievous people went straight out of their homes, packed some melon seeds, and sat on the stones along the village road, leisurely cracking them open.
But everyone in the village knew that Li was shrewish, and not many people spoke up for her.
In short, some of those gazes were gloating, while others were filled with pity.
Su Ruanruan scoffed coldly, "Wang Chunya, Wang Chunya, do you really have no remorse at all? If you leave with your mother right now, I'll pretend nothing happened. Otherwise, don't blame me for exposing your true colors."
Upon hearing Su Ruanruan's words, Wang Chunya's heart sank completely.
Su Ruanruan knows!
What should she do?
A hint of doubt flickered in Li's eyes. What regret? What revelation?
Why can't she understand?!
"What do you mean? My daughter is well-educated, reasonable, and understanding. What's wrong with her? Don't try to smear her," Li said angrily.
"Of course..."
"Mom, it's nothing. Someone was cursing her earlier, and she thought it was because I was talking about her and Brother Dashan, so she took her anger out on me."
Wang Chunya would certainly not confess without being asked; they were so careful that it was impossible for anyone to discover them.
Su Ruanruan was definitely trying to trick her into revealing information.
Su Ruanruan narrowed her eyes slightly. She had given you a chance, but you didn't cherish it. So don't blame her for being impolite.
“My brother Tie is down-to-earth, steady, and honest. He only wants a virtuous wife to grow old with. But that person should not be you, and cannot be you. I gave you a chance, but instead of persuading your mother to restrain herself, you smeared me.”
"You even asked my uncle's family for money? How could you have the nerve to ask?"
“We want a pure and innocent girl, but you, a wildflower that has long since faded, still have the nerve to come out and propose marriage? You have such a thick skin. If I hadn’t appeared in time, my uncle’s family would have lost both their money and their daughter.”
"Su Ruanruan, you bitch, what do you mean? My daughter is innocent and pure. You have a rotten heart. You're seducing other people and trying to smear my daughter. I'll fight you to the death."
After saying that, Li was about to pounce on Su Ruanruan.
Duan Zhuang, Duan Datie, and Liu Shi quickly stood in front of Su Ruanruan to stop the raging tigress.
They said that the reason why Ruan Ruan came all the way to stop this marriage was actually this.
What bad luck, I misjudged it.
Wang Chunya stood there stunned, feeling as if countless eyes were staring at her, leaving her nowhere to hide.
Amidst the constant murmurs of discussion, her mind went blank.
Even the matchmaker standing in the distance shrank back.
Oh my god! Is this even true?
If it's true, all the reputation I've built up over the years will be ruined by this Wang mother and daughter.
Who will ask her to be a matchmaker in the future?
Those damned Wang family members, they really infuriate her.
Immediately, his gaze returned to the little girl from before...
With two men protecting her, Li Shi naturally couldn't hit Su Ruanruan. Her face turned bright red, and she pinched Wang Chunya's arm hard.
“Tell these people yourselves that it was that bitch Su Ruanruan who ruined your reputation.”
Wang Chunya winced in pain and let out a soft groan before she came to her senses.
Seeing the raging anger in her mother's eyes, and glancing at the crowd of onlookers, she didn't see that familiar figure.
My heart sank.
But she also knew her situation; if she remained silent, she would be confirming what Su Ruanruan had said.
But when exactly did she discover it?
"You're talking nonsense! If you don't want to discuss marriage with me, just say so. Why do you have to smear me? You've ruined my reputation, bullied and humiliated me. You'll be punished!"
Liu was immediately enraged and pointed at Wang Chunya, "I think you are the one who should be punished. It is not easy for us farmers to find a wife, but you have treated my family like a fool. Fortunately, Ruan Ruan found out today, otherwise my family would have been cursed for eight generations if we had married you."
Wang Chunya's face turned deathly pale as she roared, "You've wronged me!"
