Changshun clenched his fists tightly and turned to look at the woman who spoke angrily.
However, he was not good with words. After his face turned red, he only said, âItâs none of your business.â
âAiyo, how is it none of my business?â The woman laughed exaggeratedly. âLet me tell you, because of you, our reputation in this area is ruined. If our son hadnât been implicated by you, he wouldnât have been unable to find an easy job. You still have the cheek to continue living here. If it were me, I would have long found a place to hang myself so that my mother and sister would dare to go out.â
Changshun was trembling with anger, especially when the other party mentioned his mother and sister. He almost couldnât control himself.
There was a crashing sound.
At this moment, someone came out from behind Changshun. That person held a basin of water in his hand and splashed it directly at the woman opposite him.
âAhâ¦â The woman was instantly drenched and looked exceptionally disheveled. She screamed and jumped around.
âDamn it, how dare you splash it on me?â
âWhatâs wrong with splashing water on you?â The person finished splashing water and put away the wooden basin in her hand. She pointed at the womanâs nose and scolded, âWho ruined our reputation in this area? Itâs you. If you hadnât gone around slandering my brother as a thief, my brother wouldnât have lost one job after another. Your son canât find a job because heâs lazy. What does it have to do with my brother? Donât blame my brother for all the nonsense. My brother isnât a thief. My mother and I believe him. Donât talk nonsense for no reason. Get lost.â
âYou, you, you b*tch. No wonder you canât get married. Youâre so fierce and vicious at such a young age. You deserve to stay at home and be a spinster for the rest of your life.â The woman was furious. She wiped the water off her face and realized that it was stinky. Her face turned even paler. âThe Ding family really made the right choice to break off the engagement. They long saw that youâre not a good person. Little whore, in the future, youâll beâ¦â
Before she could finish speaking, Changshun took a step forward with a dark expression. His fists were clenched tightly, as if he was about to hit someone.
The woman was so frightened that she took a step back and stuttered, âW- What are you trying to do?â
âIf you dare to say anything bad about my sister again, I wonât be polite to you.â Changshun kicked the stool beside the woman and the needle basket on it fell to the ground.
âAhâ¦â The woman screamed and wanted to curse, but when she saw the siblings glaring at her, she immediately cowered. She only shouted indignantly, âYou, just you wait. When my husband comes back, Iâll teach you a lesson.â
Changshun glared at her and turned to go back. He picked up the pole on the ground again and said to his sister, Su Qing, âGo in and close the door. Iâll come back tonight.â
Su Qing frowned and looked at the pole in his hand. She wanted to say something but hesitated. After a while, she didnât say anything and only nodded. âBrother, be careful. Donât tire yourself out.â
âAlright, I understand.â
Changshun turned around and was about to leave when he heard a cheerful and familiar voice. âChangshun.â
He was stunned. He looked in the direction of the voice and saw three people standing not far behind him.
One of them was the shopkeeper he was familiar with, Zheng Gang. He was overjoyed. âShopkeeper, you, why are you here?â
âIâm here to look for you. Our boss is looking for a shop assistant. She heard that youâre hardworking and insisted on coming over to take a look.â Zheng Gang laughed.
