171. Chapter 171: Widow Xu's Slander

How could she say this?

Should she say that she instigated Zhao Wulai to go and ruin your purity, so that she could occupy all the property of your family?

Or should she say that she was forced by Zhao Wulai, and she also wanted to drag you into the mud, so she instigated Zhao Wulai to go to your house late at night to ruin your purity...

Widow Xu fell into a dilemma for a time.

She originally just didn't want to be sold to a brothel by Zhao Old Woman, so she revealed this matter to her. She wanted Zhao Wang Shi to let her go and go to the Jiang family to demand compensation, so as to raise the money for the tax.

But she didn't expect that in the end, Zhao Wang Shi actually dragged her to confront Jiang Shi.

Now that she has reached such a situation, she has no way out. If she doesn't drag Jiang Shi into it, she will have to be sold to a brothel...

So, Widow Xu gritted her teeth and said: "That's right! I saw with my own eyes that you invited Zhao Wulai to your house that night, saying that there was no firewood at home, and asked Zhao Wulai to go to the mountain to help you chop some... As a result, he didn't come back all night! It must be that you lured Zhao Wulai to the mountain and pushed him down the slope, which caused him to be bitten by wild wolves!"

"I invited Zhao Wulai to my house late at night?" Jiang Wei laughed in anger, "Widow Xu, as long as you have a little brain, you won't say such nonsense!"

"My mother wouldn't do such a thing, she has been with me that night!" Jiang Xiaoxiao stood out and said, "Don't slander my mother without any evidence!"

Now Jiang Xiaoxiao basically determined that Zhao Wulai came to find them that night, and it must have been half instigated by Widow Xu. Otherwise, it would be impossible to know so clearly about what happened that night, and even use this to make up such lies to slander her mother.

"Anyway, I saw it with my own eyes!" Widow Xu insisted on this point, "Zhao Wulai went to your house that night!"

The villagers on the side couldn't stand it anymore.

"I say Widow Xu, you like to steal men yourself, don't think of Xiaoxiao's mother as shameless as you! For someone like Zhao Wulai, even if he were given to Xiaoxiao's mother for free, she wouldn't want him. Why would she call Zhao Wulai to her house for no reason?"

"Exactly! Widow Xu, everyone is watching here, I advise you not to slander someone's purity with empty words!"

"Oh my, can't everyone see it yet? This Zhao Wulai family can't pay the tax themselves, and now they are deliberately dragging Xiaoxiao's mother into it, wanting to slander Xiaoxiao's mother's purity to pay the tax for their family!"

"How shameless! For money, they even make up such lies!"

"..."

Everyone mocked Widow Xu one after another.

Widow Xu was flushed red and then white from being talked about.

Zhao Wang Shi saw that she couldn't win against Jiang Wei, and there were so many people speaking for her, so she simply slapped her thigh and sat on the ground crying and wailing:

"I don't care! Anyway, someone saw my son go to your house that night. My son became like this because of this poisonous woman! If you don't compensate for my son's loss, I won't leave!"

Everyone was speechless. They had never seen anyone demand money so righteously.

However, Zhao Wulai's mother had an extremely thick skin and often relied on her old age, thinking others wouldn't dare to move her, to make a scene and take advantage. If she really sat here and wailed all the time, no one could do anything about her even if they couldn't drive her away.

Jiang Wei sneered: "Not leaving? Then sit here and sit well."

After speaking, she turned and entered the courtyard.

Zhao Wang Shi wiped the non-existent tears from her face, her two eyeballs rolling around, sizing up the Jiang family's new house, her eyes unable to hide her greed.

Such a large blue brick tile house, I don't know how much money it took to build it!

That cheap woman Widow Xu was right, the Jiang family has made a fortune! Even if her son wasn't harmed by Jiang Shi, she would bite onto the Jiang family, this piece of fat meat, and she had to bite off some oil and water for herself!

In no time, Jiang Wei walked out carrying a wooden bucket.

Jiang Xiaoxiao subconsciously glanced at the wooden bucket her mother was carrying. It was a bit far, so she didn't see what was inside clearly, but the dense, squirming things still made her hair stand on end.

She silently cast a sympathetic look at Zhao Wulai's mother on the ground.

As soon as Zhao Wang Shi saw Jiang Wei come out with a wooden bucket, she only thought she was going to splash her with feces water, and said fearlessly: "Hmph! Jiang Shi, do you think I'll leave if you splash dirty water on me! I'll put my words here today, if you don't give me money, I won't leave! Even if I'm covered in feces water, I'll cry and wail at your door every day, let's see what you can do!"

The villagers also saw the wooden bucket Jiang Wei was carrying and thought she was going to splash feces water on Zhao Wang Shi to force her to leave, but this method didn't work.

In the past, Zhao Wulai's mother would cry and wail at someone's door for a few wen, wailing for a whole day, making that family annoyed.

That family was angry, so they brought a bucket of feces to splash her, wanting to drive her away, but didn't expect Zhao Wang Shi, this old woman, to be able to endure it, and she stubbornly wailed at that family's door for two days covered in filth. In the end, that family was forced to give Zhao Wang Shi a lot of money to settle the matter.

"Rest assured, I won't drive you away. You can wail here as long as you want... as long as you can endure it!" Jiang Wei sneered and splashed the wooden bucket in her hand onto Zhao Wang Shi.

In an instant, a large nest of snakes was poured onto Zhao Wang Shi's head.

"Snakes! It's snakes!!"

The villagers were so scared they scattered one after another.

Zhao Wang Shi only felt a slippery and cold chill on her neck, and a "hissing" sound that made her scalp tingle sounded in her ears.

As soon as she looked up, she met a pair of green vertical pupils. Black snakes were coiled on her body, spitting scarlet snake tongues at her.

Zhao Wang Shi had never seen such a formation and screamed, scared directly into a faint.

Seeing this, Jiang Wei put down the wooden bucket in her hand, took out a bamboo flute as thick as a thumb, and blew twice in front of her lips.

The villagers were scared and hid in the distance, not daring to approach, only seeing the dense snake group coiled on Zhao Wang Shi's body as if hearing the call of the flute, slowly leaving Zhao Wang Shi's body, crawling back into the wooden bucket obediently, and no longer showing their heads...

The villagers dared to approach slowly. Looking at Zhao Wang Shi, she was just scared into a faint and wasn't bitten by the snakes.

But thinking of the scene just now, everyone was shivering. They had never seen so many snakes coiled on a person; it was terrifying!

Jiang Wei walked over, kicked the fainted Zhao Wang Shi, and then looked at Widow Xu, who was already stunned on the side: "Why don't you come over and carry her back."

Widow Xu came back to her senses, her face pale and bloodless. She didn't dare to say a word, dragged the fainted Zhao Wang Shi, and ran away as if fleeing...

Actually, if her legs hadn't been softened by the snake group just now, she would have run away long ago. (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 172 =====
