Chapter 95: Stealing the chicken, and eating uncooked rice
Other people may not know her personality, but how can the Bai Family not know?
Knowing what kind of person she was, but still speak malicious words to slander her, how can she not be upset?
Bai Zhi stood up from the oxcart and looked at Mrs. Liu, then she laughed and shouted: “Liu Guihua, you are a fickle woman, is that why you think all the women in the world are like you? Do you want me to tell in front of the villagers about you and Yang Sigen?”
Mrs. Liu’s face drastically changed. She pointed her finger to Bai Zhi and shouted: “Dead girl, what nonsense are you talking about? I and Yang Sigen are both clean. What kind of thing happened between us ah? You better say this matter clearly.”
The oxcart gradually drifted away, but Bai Zhi’s crispy voice still passed on every woman’s ears that were washing clothes by the river: “Look at you, I haven’t said anything yet, why are you so fierce and scary? If I come and talk about this matter, what if you hurt me? I’m so scared, I don’t want to say anything anymore.”
Bai Zhi then snorted and turned around.
Zhao Lan frowned and looked at Bai Zhi, then asked: “Is what you said is true? Is Liu Guihua and that Yang Sigen really have something?”
Bai Zhi shrugged her shoulders: “I don’t know if she and Yang Sigen have something. I just want her to taste her own medicine. I want her to feel how it is to be falsely accused.”
This was the thing called an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.
Mrs. Liu can smear other’s reputation, but other’s are not allowed to taint hers?
Oh right, she has a husband and a mother-in-law, so she was in a more disadvantaged position.
Mrs. Liu really wanted to cry, but no tears came out. It was very impossible for her to steal the chicken, and eat uncooked rice.
She wanted to make Bai Zhi and Zhao Lan disgusting to everyone’s eyes, but she didn’t expect that she will burn her own self.
Mrs. Liu turned her head and said to the women on the riverside: “Don’t listen to that dead girl’s nonsense. There is nothing going on between us. I and Yang Sigen had only seen each other twice. The first time was when I went to the Baiyang Village to look for Bai Zhi’s husband. The second one was when he cause trouble to the village. We obviously didn’t do anything wrong.”
The villagers just laughed and didn’t say anything. They only continued to wash their clothes. They acted like they didn’t hear Mrs. Liu’s words.
Mrs. Yingzi got up with her washed clothes and look at Mrs. Liu: “Liu Guihua, as a saying goes, there is no wave if there’s no wind. Likewise, there is no smoke, if there’s no fire.”
“You, you, what do you mean?” Mrs. Liu became anxious.
Mrs. Yingzi laughed and said: “Nothing, I’ll go ahead now, I am finished.” Mrs. Yingzi sneered and walked passed by Mrs. Liu.
The village women who also had been washing clothes finished their work. They walked away and didn’t listen to Mrs. Liu’s explanation.
Mrs. Liu has long been married in the Huangtou Village. So, how can she not know the habits of the villagers? Those words of that dead girl, Bai Zhi, will surely pass by like a wind in the whole village.
This kind of thing, although it’s not true, it will be passed to everyone’s ears and mouth with different version… …
How can this thing be good? If this matter passed to her mother-in-law and Bai Dazhu’s ears, she will not have peaceful days.
Dead girl, you dare to slander me, let’s see how I am going to clean you up!

The ox cart took Bai Zhi all the way to the Qingyuan town, then they went straight to the market. The market was very similar to the modern time market, the only difference was there was a small table on the ground, unlike in the modern time which was clean and tidy.
