Spatial Farm Life: Raising My Kid, Abusing Scum, and Keeping Busy With Life Chapter 32: Why Is My Life So Bitter
Chapter 32: Why Is My Life So Bitter
The two won panicked and quickly touched the hairpins on their heads. Today, they had been entrusted by their husbands to co over and persuade Qiao Mai. They wore unpatched clothes, put on silver hairpins, and wanted to go around the town.
"It's not like that. This hairpin was our dowry back then. We brought it from our maternal family to the Qiao family."
"Pfft, who in Lihua Village doesn't know that your maternal family is so poor that you can't even make a living? When you ca to the Qiao family, you had nothing. A few days ago, when the two old fellows asked for silver, they even said that the family was suffering. Don't you have a script before lying? You bought this hairpin by selling your sister-in-law. How could you have the audacity to wear it now?"
Her voice was so loud that everyone passing by in the town stopped to watch.
Many people knew Qiao Mai. "Little lady, who are these two?"
"You all know the two daughters-in-law of the Qiao family in Lihua Village who broke off ties with ."
"Oh, aren't they dressed quite well? They're even wearing a silver hairpin."
"Everyone, take a look. That old couple from the Qiao family in Lihua Village sold once and a second ti. I'm already in this state, but they still won't let off."
"What's wrong? Is it because they saw you doing a small business and rembered you again?"
"Isn't that so? They're really shaless. Look at their heads. They bought it with the money they got from selling . Now, they want to coax ho. They want to sche against again because they think I can earn a small amount for the family."
Qiao Mai took a handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped her red eyes.
The two daughters-in-law of the Qiao family were so embarrassed that their faces turned red. They wanted to defend themselves, but how could they against so many mouths?
"Little lady, I advise you not to return to such a family for the rest of your life."
"I have no intention of going back."
"Do you want us to help you invite the mayor over to uphold justice?"
"I shall wait. If these two people make a fuss, it won't be too late for you to go."
"Good!"
Qiao Mai looked at the two daughters-in-law of the Qiao family with a smile. The two were frightened by the words just now and quickly pulled out the hairpins on their heads and tucked them in their arms.
"Mai, although it's written that we broke our ties, we're still a family."
"Hmph, get lost. Family? Where were you when I was tortured? Where were you when I was kicked out of the family? Where were you when I was holess? You are worse than strangers."
"Mai, Father and Mother know their mistake, so they sent us to make peace."
"Go back and tell them I'll never acknowledge them again every day I live. I don't have parents or family. Scram!"
"You, you really don't know how to appreciate good grace!"
"Are you going to get lost or not?"
The two won looked at the waterlon on the table and swallowed hard.
"Give us a lon, and we'll leave."
Qiao Mai shouted at the onlookers, "Who's going to invite the mayor? Soone is acting shalessly in front of my stall. They won't leave until I give them sothing for free."
The surrounding commoners laughed out loud. "Little lady, no need to call the mayor. We'll help you get rid of these two shaless things."
They threw vegetable leaves and stones at them. The two won hugged their heads and ran around. After a while, they disappeared from her stall.
After chasing away the eyesore, Qiao Mai waved at everyone.
"Thank you. Who wants to buy lons today? I'll give everyone a discount."
"How much cheaper can it be?"
"The original price of a waterlon piece is 50 coins, but you can buy one at 30 coins. It's 500 coins for a whole waterlon today!"
"Haha, we can't afford it either. Let's go. We'll buy it when we have money."
The commoners dispersed. Qiao Mai smiled and continued to look at the lon stall. She didn't expect the two won would return after a while.
"Mai?"
"Get lost!"
This ti, Qiao Mai was furious. She had seen shaless people but not such thick-skinned people. She picked up the stick beside her and swung it at them.
The two won could not dodge in ti, and one was hit on the butt. It was really painful.
Qiao Mai glared at them. "If you co again, I won't have any rcy on you."
"Mai, please forgive us. Let us take a waterlon when we leave. Our parents have never eaten a piece of waterlon in their lives."
"You can eat lons if you want, but leave the hairpin on your head."
"Dream on. How much is a waterlon worth?"
"If you don't know what it ans to disown , let's et at the court. The Qiao family has co to my stall to cause trouble ti and ti again. I'll report you to the mayor. Get lost!!!"
In the end, she shouted angrily, and the two won were so scared that they ran north.
The rchants and hawkers at the side all gave her a thumbs up.
"Young lady, you're amazing."
"This is how you deal with people like that."
Qiao Mai let out a long sigh of relief. She realized that after torturing a scumbag, she would feel very satisfied. This way, she would not get depression.
Why doesn't she torture scum more in the future? She felt great after that, and she even liked it.
Qiao Mai sat down and was a little puzzled by this feeling. She suspected that after she transmigrated, her interests had changed and beca more twisted.
As for those two won, they started crying the mont they returned to the Qiao family in Lihua Village.
"Father, Mother, you don't know how fierce that girl is. No matter what nice words we say, she won't listen. If we say too much, she'll pick up a stick and hit us."
"She… She really did that?"
"Yeah, if you don't believe , you can ask the people in town. She even asked to inform you that she would never acknowledge us in this lifeti so you wouldn't be delusional. Not to ntion that she's selling herself to soone else as a servant now, even if she doesn't, she won't have anything to do with the Qiao family anymore."
Her father slamd the table fiercely. "She's really going against the heavens. People say that raising a daughter is a waste of money, and now I've even raised an ingrate. I'll go look for her."
"Father, don't be rash. That girl is still angry with us. Give her so ti. When her anger subsides, I'll go with you."
"Hmph, it's all because of your good daughter."
Mother Qiao thought to herself, 'So what if I gave birth? Didn't you still earn a hundred catties of wheat and ten taels of silver?'
Shopkeeper Lu was busy in the shop. After hearing about this, the crowd had already left. She walked to the side of the official road angrily.
"Sister, that shaless family is here again?"
"Yes, they sent two daughters-in-law over this ti."
"Are they interested in your business?"
"I don't think so. Everyone around knows that this is your stall. I'm just a servant of your family."
"Then why are they still coming?"
"They must be thinking about my monthly salary and the fact that I can do business here. I must have gotten so benefits. Putting aside the money, they wanted the waterlon or sothing else."
"Bah, they're really shaless. If a normal family's children work for others, they're afraid they'll be fired if they don't do well."
"They have always been like this. It wasn't that our family didn't have any food back then. Although I wasn't good-looking, I ate less and worked more. Even so, they didn't like . When they saw soone asking for marriage, they agreed readily as soon as they offered a hundred catties of wheat. It was as if I was the God of Plagues. I don't know what their brains were made of."
"You're not the God of Plagues. You're the God of Wealth. I didn't expect your family to be so heartless. It'd be better if they sold you to be soone else's maid."
"No one wants soone like . I'm not good-looking, thin, and small. Human traffickers don't even want ."
"Haha, to be honest, I think my sister is quite good. You're not good-looking because you didn't eat well in the past. Look at you now. You're not ugly, energetic, so capable. You're the best candidate for a wife in the eyes of a man."
