“Hehehe..” Xiao Yuchuan laughed, admitting it.

“Brother Chuan, as a big man, how could you slap your own face?” Shi Shanzao’s tone was somewhat sour, “Is it worth it for such a woman?

“Yo, Shanzao, are you feeling wronged for Chuan?” Wang Qigu’s sharp eyes landed on her, “Could it be that you like Chuan too?”

“Who.. Who said I like him?” Shi Shanzao’s face turned red, and she shrank behind a group of people sitting in the shade.

Shi Cai, Shanzao’s biological brother, didn’t like that remark, “Aunt Qi, my sister Shanzao is still to get married, so don’t spoil her reputation with such words.”

Aunt Qi had just made a wild guess. Since the other party didn’t admit it, she couldn’t continue, “I was just talking casually.”

Aunt Zhang, who had gone to the Xiao Family earlier to watch the excitement, was also present and spoke up with reason, “Aunt Qi, careless words can drown a person. We old folks can endure a few words, but an unmarried girl like Shanzao can’t stand rumors, so mind your words.”

Aunt Qi closed her mouth and said no more.

Shi Cai saw Xiao Yuchuan and Su Qingyue walking away, being a gossip, he ran over and blocked Su Qingyue’s path. He looked up and down, left and right at her, while fanning his nose with his hand, “It really stinks!”

With such a simple gesture and two words, Su Qingyue, of course, understood. She Imew she smelled bad and was embarrassing to passersby, but this man was clearly looking for trouble on purpose.

She glanced at the protruding stone beside him on the ground, deliberately stepped forward to the left, and Shi Cai stepped back into the opposite direction to escape the smell. Unknowingly tripping on the stone, he fell into a starfish position, screaming in pain, “Hey yo, hey!”

“Hahaha.. Hahaha..” The onlookers in the back roared with laughter. L1terary-N0v3l hosted the first appearance of this chapter at N0vel.B1n.

Aunt Qi had already been rubbed the wrong way by Shi Cai just now. Seeing this, she said sarcastically, “Oh dear, I say Shi Cai, how did you become such a weak shrimp, unable to stand firmly? Your wife must have drained you dry and left you with kidney deficiency!”

Aunt Qi’s words made everyone laugh even harder. Everyone knew that Shi Cai’s wife was both fierce and lew-d, even having affairs with several men in the village.

Shi Cai’s face turned red with embarrassment, he denied, ‘What nonsense are you talking about? I’m amazing in bed!” He glared angrily at Su Qingyue, “You stinky woman, you’re both smelly and ugly! If it weren’t for your stench, would I have fallen? Damn bad luck!”

Xiao Yuchuan grabbed his collar, “Watch your mouth! Who’s smelly and who’s bad luck?”

Shi Cai knew that Xiao Yuchuan often fainted, his body wasn’t fit, so he wasn’t afraid of him. Struggling to get up, he said, ‘What’s wrong? Where was I wrong? Your wife stinks so much that people’s noses are going numb! You really think she smells good? She’s bad luck, otherwise why would she be sold around?”

It was one thing for Xiao Yuchuan to say his wife was smelly, but seeing others say so was unbearable, “My wife smells nice, my Xiao Family won’t sell her anymore. It’s you, a rotten stone, who stinks and disgusts after falling into an outhouse pit!”

“Ha! The Xiao Family’s third son is now spitting ivory!” Shi Cai waved to the others, “Everyone, take a look at how ugly the wife of the Xiao Family is! It’s bad enough that she’s ugly herself, but hiding in the house to rot wouldn’t hurt anyone.. Coming out and scaring people, that’s her fault!”
