20: Chapter 20 Just Showing Off 20: Chapter 20 Just Showing Off Gu Youyou listened to the conversation outside and couldn’t help but roll her eyes.
Huang Xiangwen really was too much.
With that look of hers, was she worth making up stories about?
Although Wang Shun was a young man who hadn’t married yet, once she said that, he understood what Huang Xiangwen ant, and his face suddenly turned red.
“Gu Family Second Aunt, what…
what nonsense are you talking about?
Of course, I know that Big Brother Jin isn’t ho.” He pointed to the firewood on the ground and said, “Look, this is what Big Brother Jin asked to bring over, he’ll be back soon.”
After speaking, he stared at what was in Huang Xiangwen’s hands with ill-intent and said, “But what about you, Gu Family Second Aunt?
Taking so much stuff from my Big Brother Jin’s house, where are you off to with that?”
Gu Youyou had heard soone approaching, but wasn’t sure who it was.
After hearing what Wang Shun said, she felt at ease, knowing that since he was part of Jin Zijin’s crowd, he probably wouldn’t let Huang Xiangwen take the items away.
Turning the topic back to the items in her hands, Huang Xiangwen’s face looked sowhat unnatural, yet she still loudly and aggressively shouted, “What do you an, your Big Brother Jin’s stuff?
This is the stuff that was carried out from our Gu Family yesterday, mind you!
I’m taking things from the Gu Family, what’s it to you?”
Her voice was rather loud, attracting several villagers who were busy in the nearby fields.
In ancient tis, people had few entertainnts.
In such villages, especially the village won, their only pleasure was to listen to gossip and watch spectacles.
It wasn’t just about argunts, even if soone found a nest of mice in a house, they’d have a few words to share about it.
In response to Huang Xiangwen’s outburst, Wang Shun simply said, “So that’s my sister-in-law’s dowry, huh?
Gu Family Second Aunt, since your Gu Family’s daughter has married my Big Brother Jin, this dowry naturally counts as Big Brother Jin’s now, you…
are you sure you want to take it away?”
Seeing several busybodies coming to watch the commotion, Wang Shun felt a bit more assured.
Being a young man, he had so strength, but when it ca to arguing with a village woman like Huang Xiangwen, even if he had ten mouths, he wouldn’t win the argunt.
Huang Xiangwen had co to take soone’s dowry the day after Gu Youyou’s wedding, which was plainly unreasonable to everyone.
Seeing that a few villagers who loved a spectacle were looking in her direction, she could only curse under her breath and abandoned the idea of taking the items then and there.
It was just that she was too impatient.
Gu Youyou was bedridden and didn’t move, while Jin Zijin was often not at ho.
When would it not be okay for her to co?
It was only the second day.
After thinking for a while, she suddenly let out a wail and loudly said to the won outside, “Oh dear, it’s so pitiful.
Our Youyou has married into hardship by wedding this hunter.
This shabby house, neither windproof nor waterproof, and there she lies alone in the room uncared for.
Taking ti out of my busy farming schedule as her second aunt, I ca to see her and found the cloth in her room all damp, so I was going to take it out to air it.
But look at that hunter, letting that scoundrel from the Wang Family stand guard here.
As soon as I stepped out the door, he caught , saying I was stealing these things.
What do you all think?
These were originally from our Gu Family; why would I need to steal them?
This heartless wretch, what on earth is he thinking…”
While cursing, she pushed away Wang Shun, who was standing in her way, and pretentiously began hanging up the cloth she was carrying onto the bamboo poles in the yard.
Watching her, it seed like she had a point.
The won didn’t find the drama they hoped for began to mutter among themselves, criticizing Wang Shun for being too suspicious.
