Chapter 251: The Warnings

Translator: Lonelytree

The atmosphere in the house was harmonious, even though the two men were love rivals.

However, the villagers outside the house were already starting a rumor of their own.

“What. The child in Xiao Lingyu’s stomach is fathered by that fine-looking man?”

“No. I heard that he was only taking the blame. The person who made Xiao Lingyu pregnant was someone else.”

“No wonder the man didn’t come to propose a marriage even when her stomach is so big. The child is not his.”

“But didn’t his grandfather come to propose marriage to the Xiao Family earlier?”

“There’s no matchmaker and no gifts. What kind of marriage proposal is this?”

“The man drove over in a cavalry. His family must be very rich. I thought Xiao Lingyu finally had a good marriage. With the child, she could marry into a rich family… Xiao Lingyu is really unlucky.”

“In any case, now we can be sure that the child in Xiao Lingyu’s stomach is really a bastard.”

The people were said bad things were the few who had a bad relationship with the Xiao Family.

These days, the Xiao family had been growing vegetables and strawberries. They had sold them at a good price and made a fortune. Some people were envious.

Now that they saw the customers coming to buy strawberries, they were even more upset. They wished that something bad would happen to Xiao Lingyu’s family.

However, no one was willing to offend Xiao Lingyu’s family openly.

Firstly, many people planted vegetables with a contract with Xiao Lingyu. Xiao Lingyu would buy their vegetables so they would not need to suffer the risk and losses.

Secondly, the Xiao Family hired people to do odd jobs every day. Sometimes, there were two or three people, but sometimes, there were 30 or 40 people.

Families close to the Xiao Family, like Xiao Chengbang’s family, worked odd jobs with the Xiao Family every day. Their daughter, Xiao Xinxin, worked in Xiao Lingyu’s shop for 1,200 RMB a month. After her probation, she would get 1,500 RMB a month. It meant that Xiao Chengbang’s family would get several thousand RMB a month. In a year, they could earn tens of thousands. It was much better than farming their own fields.

Other than Xiao Chengbang’s family, there were other families too. They were often hired by the Xiao family to do odd jobs.

The villagers realized this and tried their best not to offend the Xiao Family. The most basic thing was not to speak ill about them!

If they spoke ill of them behind their backs, it would always reach their ears.

Only dumb people would talk shit about people who could bring them benefits. They were shooting themselves in the foot.

They assumed that the Xiao Family would just take any abuse thrown their way. These people were crazy!

Everyone gathered around Xiao Zhengyang’s house. They came when they heard about the marriage proposal. If someone came to propose marriage, it would be a good thing for Xiao Lingyu. The child in Xiao Lingyu’s stomach had a father. It wasn’t a bastard child at all. The villagers were also very happy for Xiao Lingyu’s family. Recently, their lives had been getting better and better. It was all thanks to Xiao Lingyu.

Who would have thought that a discordant voice would suddenly rise?

“Xiao Lingyu’s child is clearly a bastard. How shameless is she that she’d spread the rumors that it belongs to that rich man? She is ridiculous!” Zhang Xiaolan covered her mouth and laughed mockingly.

“That’s right. Someone is really shameless!” Liu Changnu added.

Zhou Yan came over at this time and said angrily, “You people are unbelievable. You’re speaking ill of someone in front of their door? Aren’t you afraid of karma?”

Zhang Chunjiao mocked, “Haha, Zhou Yan, we all know that you have a good relationship with Xiao Zhengyang’s family. You rely on them to earn money. Of course, you want to suck up to them. Even if they poop, you will say it’s fragrant.

“Xiao Lingyu has done such a shameful thing. She slept with a man and came back pregnant with a bastard child. If she doesn’t want other people to talk about it, then she shouldn’t have opened her legs for an unknown man to fuck her.

“Let me tell you, Zhou Yan, other people are afraid of Xiao Zhengyang’s family, but I’m not.

“I heard that man say with my own ears that Xiao Lingyu is not pregnant with his child. He will not take responsibility.”

Zhou Yan said angrily, “Zhang Chunjiao, what you said is too much. Xiao Lingyu slept with a man. Is it Lingyu’s wish? She was framed.”

“Hehe, so what if she was framed?” Zhang Chunjiao said disdainfully, “She has lost her chastity, so she is tainted and ruined. She is no better than a prostitute. But to make matters worse, she isn’t even ashamed of being pregnant with a bastard child. She is even proud of it. What a joke! If it was in the past, Xiao Lingyu would be drowned in the river already.

“And the rest of you. What if your daughter follows in her footsteps and gets pregnant before marriage? After all, the great Xiao Lingyu is now our role model! In fact, she has been the perfect example since she was young. Have your daughters follow her example then!”

Zhang Chunjiao’s words stuck into people’s hearts.

That’s right.

Xiao Lingyu had been a role model for children since she was young. Many parents told their daughters to learn from Xiao Lingyu. But, now they were afraid that their daughters might really learn the bad things from Xiao Lingyu.

Zhou Yan was so angry that her face turned ashen. She pointed angrily at Zhang Chunjiao and said loudly, “Zhang Chunjiao, you’ve gone too far.”

Zhang Chunjiao sneered and said, “How have I gone too far? What I say is the truth. Oh, that’s right.”

Zhang Chunjiao suddenly thought of something and continued,

“I remember now. Your daughter, Xiao Xinxin, is helping Xiao Lingyu, right? Zhou Yan, I’m just looking out for you out of kindness. Take good care of your daughter. Don’t be surprised that one day your daughter might come home pregnant.”

Zhou Yan’s face was green and red with anger. After a moment, she laughed instead of being angry, “Zhang Chunjiao, you should worry about yourself first. I heard that when you were a teen, you hooked up with a married man and ruined your reputation. No one in your home village was willing to marry you.

“That was why you married to our village. If someone should be drowned in the river, you’d be the first. You still have the face to talk about others now. What a big joke.

“And, that’s all not. I heard that your eldest daughter who married into Ten Miles Village, was also caught in adultery. Like mother, like daughter. She is going through a divorce now. Zhang Chunjiao, where do you find the face to gossip about others?”

“How do you know that?” Zhang Chunjiao was shocked. Then, she realized that she had indirectly admitted this matter.

Taoyuan Village and Ten Miles Village were quite far apart, so there wasn’t connection between them. In addition, it wasn’t like everyone had a cell phone, so the news didn’t spread.

After Zhang Chunjiao heard about her daughter’s incident, she was furious. However, for the sake of her face, she had kept this matter a secret. Yet, Zhou Yan still found out about it.

Zhang Chunjiao shouted angrily, “Zhou Yan, you’re slandering my eldest daughter’s reputation.”

“We’ll know if I’m slandering you once we ask someone from Ten Miles Village!” Zhou Yan said.

Zhang Chunjiao was so angry that her entire body trembled. She pointed at Zhou Yan and said angrily, “Zhou Yan, you awful woman. I will never forgive you!”

This time, it was Zhou Yan’s turn to be smug. She snorted and said, “Zhang Chunjiao, I don’t even want your apology.”

At this moment, the Xiao family’s courtyard door opened.

Gong Tianhao helped Old Master Gong out while the Yan siblings helped Old Master Yan Out.

The outside of the courtyard became completely silent. Zhang Chunjiao’s face was flushed red from anger and her chest was heaving up and down.

Gong Tianhao supported Old Master Gong without saying anything. However, when he passed Zhang Chunjiao, his sharp eyes glanced at her indifferently. Zhang Chunjiao was frightened, and her face turned pale. She staggered back a few steps. Her legs were bent and she almost knelt down.

This man’s aura was too strong. Just one look from him was enough to kill someone.

Zhang Chunjiao looked at him and opened her mouth. She asked anxiously, “Is there a problem?”

Gong Tianhao curled his lips and looked at her mockingly. He said plainly, “Some people have black hearts. I wonder if their blood is black too.”

Then, he helped the old man and left.

When Yan Siming passed Zhang Chunjiao and looked at the surrounding villagers, his originally beautiful face broke into a smile, causing the eyes of the villagers to be dazzled.

This man was really beautiful!

Yan Siming looked at Zhang Chunjiao, who was almost scared silly, and said with a smile, “Auntie, it’s fine that your face is ugly, but why is your heart also so ugly? You shouldn’t come out to scare people with your ugliness.

“I’m seriously warning you. My Lingyu is pregnant now, so she won’t be able to withstand a scare. If you accidentally scared my Lingyu, I’ll have to take retribution.”

As he said this, Yan Siming threw a provocative look at Gong Tianhao.

Gong Tianhao couldn’t be bothered with him.

However, Zhang Chunjiao was really scared by Yan Siming.

Yan Siming’s family had driven several cars over, and it was obvious that they were very rich. The rural people had a natural fear of officials and rich people.

Zhang Chunjiao nodded foolishly and stammered, “I…. I understand.”
