What's going on?
More and more people gathered around the embroiderer to watch the spectacle.
The embroiderer looked at Aunt Zhao, her lips trembled, and tears welled up in her eyes.
"Mother, I encountered a python, I almost lost my life..."
"Ah! Lady Wen went with you, did she... encounter some misfortune..." Aunt Zhao immediately began to examine the embroiderer, and only when she saw that the embroiderer was alright did she feel relieved.
But Aunt Zhao had some doubts in her mind. Could it be that... Wen Nan had already been eaten by the snake?
Thinking this, Aunt Zhao couldn't help but snort inwardly.
It would be best if she died. If it weren't for Wen Nan, she wouldn't have had to endure so much criticism these past few days.
Now, almost everyone in the village avoids Zhao Da Niang.
Aunt Zhao was more than happy that Wen Nan would fill the python's belly.
"She's perfectly fine. Mother, she stole all my prey." The embroiderer's eyes reddened, and looking at Aunt Zhao now, she seemed to have found her pillar of support.
They speak without thinking.
Aunt Zhao felt a little disappointed.
How come he's not dead?!
"Where is Madam Wen? How could she steal your things? You could have had a meal of meat... I'm going to go and have a good talk with her." Aunt Zhao rolled up her sleeves, looking every bit the victim.
Wang Hunzi, leaning against a tree branch, glanced at the embroiderer with a flirtatious look.
Upon hearing this, the villagers nearby fell silent for a moment.
The embroiderer sobbed softly, while Aunt Zhao cursed Wen Nan under her breath.
It was as if Wen Nan had done something terribly immoral.
Suddenly, a sarcastic voice came from the crowd.
"Why did Lady Wen steal your prey?" Wang Hunzi had just roasted and eaten the rabbit, and now he thought Wen Nan was a good person.
Without Wen Nan, he might never have been able to eat meat for the rest of his life.
Wang Hunzi remembered the kindness of receiving a bite of meat.
The embroiderer's eyes were filled with tears.
"When Lady Wen saw that I had a lot of prey, she snatched it all away, dragged it to the market to sell for money, and then abandoned me on the mountain, not caring whether I lived or died... Waaah..."
The embroiderer was covered in blood, and she wailed loudly.
Amidst the biting wind and rain, a few villagers, finding the situation uninteresting, quietly left.
I never noticed before... how come the embroiderer's family is so dramatic?
The villagers remained silent.
"Wen Niangzi is famous in the village for her hunting skills, but no one has ever seen you hunt, Xiu Niang. Can you hunt more than Wen Niangzi?" Wang Hunzi said this.
The embroiderer's sobs abruptly ceased.
What does Wang Hunzi mean? Wang Hunzi is telling everyone.
It's common knowledge that Wen Nan is a skilled hunter. The embroiderer, however, is a complete novice at hunting.
Stealing prey... Lady Wen would never do that.
Then it must be that the embroiderer framed Wen Nan.
The embroiderer's face also looked rather grim. She had originally planned to take advantage of Wen Nan's absence to smear him.
But I never expected... in just a few days.
Wang Hunzi is actually siding with Wen Nan.
They even spoke up in defense...
Pooh!
Aunt Zhao naturally understood as well, knowing that Wang Hunzi was protecting Wen Nan.
She was about to say something else.
Wang Hunzi's gaze fell undisguisedly on the embroiderer, and he covered his mouth and nose with his hand.
"Could the embroiderer have wet herself in fright? She smells strongly of urine... Aunt Zhao should take the embroiderer back to change her clothes quickly." Wang Hunzi said this.
Those around sniffed the strange smell in the air.
Then everyone burst into laughter.
The embroiderer was slightly taken aback. Her eyes reddened, and she reached out and grabbed Aunt Zhao, fleeing as if they were running away.
The embroiderer walked a long way, but the sounds behind her lingered for a long time.
The embroiderer clenched her fists tightly.
