115 A Fight
Shao Dalang and Shao Xiaoqi intended to separate them, but they were scared. Widow Sun wasn’t a gentle woman. What if the touched Widow Sun, things would get complicated.
The most troublesome was Ding Qingqing, who was a girl and should not be touched randomly.
They were panicking.
Qiao Xuan screamed. “Mom!”
Then she went up, took hold of Ding Qingqing’s wrist, who was about to scratch Ms. Fang’s face. She dragged her away as she turned to Ms. Xu. “Help us, Sister-in-law!”
She was not a strong woman, while Ding Qingqing was quite strong. She wasn’t able to drag her away alone.
Only now did Ms. Xu bring back to herself. She went up and helped.
Both of them dragged away Ding Qingqing, who was screaming and shouting.
When Ding Qingqing was dragged away, Ms. Fang slapped Widow Sun’s face two times. Shao Yunduan and his brother helped Ms. Fang stand up on her feet.
“Mom, what is going on?”
Widow Sun decided not to get up. She remained on the ground, crying and cursing.
“They are such shameless people! They are bullying a widow like me! I want to die, I want to die!”
She was already in bad shape, with unkempt hair and red prints on her face and neck. Tears were running down her cheeks, whilst her nose was runny. She looked horrible.
Ms. Fang spat and cursed. “You shameless bitch! How dare you spread rumors about me? You are a widow, so what? How dare you cry when you spread rumors around! You are the shameless one!”
Ms. Fang started to tell the story in anger…
It was a long tale.
The first section of the Shao Family had brought many mushrooms home, and the villagers, who saw that they had no problem eating mushrooms from the mountains, also went to the mountains to fetch mushrooms.
They got some from the Shao Family first and decided to find the right ones.
Ms. Fang gave them generously to those who came to the door.
But there were so many mushrooms in the mountains, and they were open to everyone in the village. They could never get enough of them.
Even the second section of the family and the third section of the family went to find some mushrooms. But they did not want to put much seasoning inside the food, so they did not think they were tasty, thus dropping the idea.
They even laughed at the first section of the family for eating horrible things like these…
However, all went well until some family got poisoned by the mushrooms from the mountains. Luckily, it wasn’t highly poisonous, and they didn’t eat too much. The family had abdominal pain, vomiting, and bile came out. After tossing all night, they drank a few large bowls of mung bean soup before getting better.
After that, the villagers were too frightened to find mushrooms or try new things.
However, Widow Sun kept spreading rumors around the village, saying that it was the first section of the Shao Family who set them up. But for her mushrooms, no one would have got poisoned. So the Shao Family should take responsibility.
There had already been many people who were jealous of the Shao Family, and they believed that what Widow Sun said was true. So, they started to complain about the Shao Family.
It was true, but for them, no one would have eaten the mushrooms in the mountains.
Therefore, it was their fault!
The affected family also wanted to get some compensation from the Shao Family!
