Chapter 204 - 204: Whose Underwear Did You Steal?
Thinking so, Mrs. Sun angrily shook the shorts in her hand, yelled, “These shorts were left behind when Tong Tiehu and Meipan secretly met up on the hill yesterday morning. Xiaomai is flirting with him, and Meipan left these behind in case he denies it!”
“Bulls**t!”
Hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai, who was getting closer, immediately cursed.
At this moment, Mrs. Sun was not the elder she had been respectful toward. Now, she could say whatever she had refrained from saying before.
Her retort was so blunt that it startled Qiao Changshun, who quickly grabbed the reins to stop the mule.
Even though he had broken off his relationship with the Sun family, she was still his mother!
Xiaomai’s cursing was too much, too much…
He lowered his head in silence.
Never mind, his mother was cursing his daughter. If he didn’t support either side, he could pretend he didn’t hear.
To Xiaomai, Changshun’s silence was a tacit approval of her attitude. Her heart felt lighter, her young face was full of frost as she stared down at Mrs. Sun, through the crowd.
“You should be at home looking after your precious son, not here causing trouble at the village chief’s doorstep. Have you forgotten the dignity of the country magistrate?”
She sneered and then turned to Tong Tiehu, “Sir Tong, Mrs. Sun has defamed me. I demand she be punished under the ‘Daqi Laws’. If necessary, let’s go to the county town again!”
Her words were sharp. Mrs. Sun, stung by them, jumped up at once.
One hand on her hip, the other holding the shorts, she pointed at Xiaomai and cursed, “Defamation? Would I slander you?! You shameless seductress, just like your mother, you can’t live a day without a man. What were you doing with Tong Tiehu behind locked doors at your place the other morning?”
Xiaomai crossed her arms calmly and replied, “Tong Tiehu came to discuss the menu for Sir Tong’s sixtieth birthday banquet. You know we’re experimenting with some new dishes. To prevent you from barging in and stealing our recipes, we locked the door.”
“Do you think Tong Tiehu and 1 are like you, thinking of seducing people all the time?”
“We are straightforward and upright, unlike you, stealing men’s shorts to slander others. An old woman like you, you really have no shame!”
“You said yesterday there would be retribution, didn’t you? God has eyes. If anyone shall be struck by lightning, it should be you.”
At this moment, Xiaomai really wished she could somehow turn her superpower into the power of thunder.
An extreme woman like Mrs. Sun deserved to be struck by lightning.
When Tong Tiehu heard this, he was surprised.
He had confessed his feelings to Xiaomai that day, but now she casually came up with a decent reason and even followed it with a vow about being struck by lightning.
Wow.
Telling such lies and daring to make such claims. Nice one.
Thinking so, he looked at Mrs. Sun who was burning with rage and smirked, “You said yesterday morning your daughter and 1 had a secret tryst in the mountains, and your daughter stealthily kept these shorts in case 1 denied it.” “Do you think I’m a fool? Do you think she could have secretly kept something this big?”
The shorts were like the shorts in later times. Given Qiao Meipan’s ability, it was impossible for her to smuggle away such a large item secretly..
