When the He family’s thugs saw this, they stopped in their tracks. They turned around and pushed Aunt Wang, causing her to fall. She looked up and saw Ministry Councilor He walk over with his men.
“Ah, why am I so unlucky!”
Aunt Wang could not take it anymore. She sat on the ground and cried out.
She had only wanted to earn some money and thought An Jiuyue would be easy to manipulate.
Why did things turn out like this?
She looked up and suddenly saw An Jiuyue, who had been watching the commotion. She was stunned but wanted to stand up and charge toward her.
However, she was in pain and had no strength left. She struggled for a moment before collapsing to the ground.
She could only point in An Jiuyue’s direction and curse, “An Jiuyue, I’m not done with you!
“How can you let them take Heizhuang away? Your son should be the one sold off! Why did you not sell him?!
“Damn you! Why don’t you go and die? My grandson is our family’s precious darling. How can you watch them take him away? Is your heart made of steel? Why are you so ruthless?”
The crowd watching the drama was speechless.
Aunt Wang is amazing! What right do you have to sell someone else’s child? Who are you to An Jiuyue?
A woman could not stand Aunt Wang’s nonsense anymore. She said to her, “You’re so thick-skinned. You failed to sell Jiuyue’s son and still think you’re right.”
The people around them immediately agreed.
“That’s right. Why is she allowed to sell Jiuyue’s son? Is her skin thicker than others? What a joke.”
“Her grandson deserves to be taken away. Let’s see if she dares to sell other people’s children in the future. If she does, we’ll get someone to take her away.”
“I agree. She’s shameless enough anyway. She can still do many things to earn money if she’s sold off, right?”
The women laughed as they chattered, looking at Aunt Wang in disdain.
“You, you…”
Aunt Wang shook with anger when she heard their words. Feeling cornered, she shouted at them.
“What does selling An Jiuyue’s sons have to do with you? She has so many sons. What’s wrong with selling one? I’m helping her save on food. She should be grateful to me!”
Upon hearing these shameless words, both the women and men were stunned.
How is this for her sake? Helping her save on food? She sounds as if Jiuyue will reap all the benefits.
“Do other families raise their children for you to sell?”
“Is this woman crazy? If she wants to save on food, why isn’t she doing that in her own family?”
“She’s already saving on food for her family. Look, she’s already sold her grandson. She probably won’t be able to find him again.”
“I don’t think Heizhuang is likable at all. I wonder how he’ll suffer after leaving home.”
“Who knows? Working for a rich family is the worst. Your master might beat you to death if you don’t do a good job.”
The women started discussing An Heizhuang again, making Aunt Wang’s heart race.
She had believed Heizhuang would live a good life after Ministry Councilor He took him. She could bring her grandson home when he grew up.
