Now, this group of villagers actually did not distinguish right from wrong and threw all the blame on her Cao family.
Madam Xu was not someone who could tolerate it. She said angrily, âYou people want to suck up to him. He has a noble character and integrity, so he wonât want you to suck up to him. Even if you donât find it embarrassing, I do. Even if my Cao family has never produced a scholar, canât we have one in the future? Our Cao family has nothing but many juniors!â
Hahaha, Iâm dying of laughter. The eldest daughter-in-law of the Cao family is indeed full of confidence. I just havenât heard of any of your juniors being famous in the school. However, in this female arts competition, five or six girls from the Chu family entered the top 100. It seems that none of the Cao family entered. The girls from the Chu family even entered the top 10, while the Cao family didnât even enter the top 100. I think some people have high expectations but low abilities. They think theyâre someone important, but in fact, theyâre nothing.â Lady Liu was not easy to bully. She retorted with a few words and accidentally poked at Madam Xuâs sore spot.
Because of the results of this female arts competition, Madam Xu was even more resentful of Chu Heng, who had prevented the Cao familyâs girls from coming to the Chu family to study.
Now that she was here, she had just learned of the results.
She was so angry that she came to the Chu familyâs first branch to talk about this matter. At the very least, she had to ask the Chu family to compensate the Cao family.
There was also the recipe of the third branch of the Chu family to make pickled vegetables.
It would be great if she could get it.
If it really could not work, she had to make things difficult for Chu Heng.
Who asked him to cause the Cao family to make such a big fool of themselves in this female arts competition? n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
He was just a scholar. How could he make the decision for the entire Chu family?
âShut up. Donât tell me you have something to do with Chu Heng. I see that youâre protecting him.â Madam Xu was so angry that she could not think of anything to say.
They instantly attacked together.
âMadam Xu, what nonsense are you spurting? Iâm already in my sixties. If I talk to your son more, does it mean that your son wants to marry me?â
âThatâs right. Scholar Chu is talented and is appreciated by others. Thatâs his ability. You have nothing but a mouth full of sh*t.â
âI didnât know that the Cao family was such a person. Theyâre really vicious.
They dare to say anything and arenât afraid of offending people.â
âI guess sheâs still jealous. During this period of time, the third and fifth branches of the Chu family earned a lot of money. I heard that the reason why the fifth branch can develop so quickly is because of Chu Heng.â
âThatâs true. As in-laws, sheâs probably dissatisfied that Chu Heng didnât bring her to get rich!â
âHow can that be? Even outsiders like us have received a lot of benefits. Take the medicinal herbs from before for example. If it wasnât for Lady Ye, would we know that the medicinal herbs could be sold? Which family doesnât earn two or three strings of money? As a person, you canât be heartless.â These accusations made Madam Xu blush. She felt guilty and angry.
â Thereâs also the Kudzu root. When the wild grass is ground into powder, it tastes like bean jelly. Itâs delicious. My child eats a bowl every day and never complains about hunger again. â
âThatâs right, Madam Xu, didnât your Cao family take advantage of this before? You even slandered others. How shameless.â Lady Liu raised her chin and cursed.
âWhy are you guys talking so much? Are you bullying me because Iâm alone?â Madam Xu was furious. She was even angrier that the villagers were helping Chu Heng. She was so angry that she kept breathing heavily..
