Chapter 74

Xia Yunge shouted indignantly, “Dad, why? Xia Yunxuan is just a nobody, a worthless wretch. Why can she find such a good boyfriend? They’re not even married. Why can’t I snatch him?”

“Don’t you, as parents, want me to find a good boyfriend? Do you insist on me finding some ugly man from the village who has no money?”

“That educated youth, Xiao, obviously has money. The watch on his wrist costs hundreds of yuan. If I could marry him, wouldn’t you all enjoy the benefits?”

“Besides, how am I any worse than Xia Yunxuan? She has money now. She eats well, dresses well, and looks like a vixen. If I had her money, I’d be even better.”

Yun Guilan said, “Husband, I think our daughter is right. Once our daughter gets married well, she can help her two brothers. Then, they can marry rich daughters-in-law, and we can enjoy the benefits too. Why not? What are you yelling at her for?”

Xia Yunge was furious. Why did her parents only see their two useless sons and couldn’t see her good qualities? Once she married into the city, she would be the one in charge. Who would care about those two good-for-nothings?

Xia Dayong said, “But our daughter can’t just go and snatch Girl Yun’s boyfriend openly. What will the villagers think? What will Girl Yun think? Look, she’s already come to our door. What are we going to do?”

Yun Guilan said, “What to do? My daughter didn’t do anything wrong. Can’t she talk to someone? She can’t control her boyfriend. Whose fault is that?”

Xia Dayong said, “There are more educated youths from the city than just Xiao Zhiqing. Why does she have to snatch him? I think that young man following Xiao Zhiqing is pretty good.”

“No, husband. Why can that little vixen find such a good one, and our daughter can only find his sidekick? Why?”

Xia Yunxuan was outside, listening to everything inside. Because she had drunk the spiritual spring water, her hearing was exceptionally sharp. She could hear every sound.

Her ambition was quite big, wasn’t it? She even looked down on Gu Benhuai. Who did she think she was? Was she a princess? Could she just pick anyone she wanted?

Xia Yunxuan couldn’t bear to listen anymore. She shouted from outside, “Xia Yunge, your time is up. If you don’t come out, I’m coming in. Don’t blame me if something happens.”

Xia Yunge came out angrily. “Xia Yunxuan, what are you yelling about? Are you summoning ghosts? What are you going crazy for? You’re making a scene at our house in broad daylight. My parents are your second uncle and second aunt. You have no manners or upbringing. You deserve to be unwanted.”

“Heh,” Xia Yunxuan’s face turned cold. She sneered and said, “Xia Yunge, what did you do at work? Don’t you remember? Or are you afraid to admit it? Do you want me to remind you in front of everyone?”

“Xia Yunxuan, don’t slander me. I was at work. I didn’t do anything. Can’t I even talk to someone? You’re too nosy. Who do you think you are?”

“Xia Yunge, don’t try to deflect. I know what you’re thinking. You’re so desperate to get married. You can go find someone else. Why are you bothering with our Yichen? He wouldn’t look at you. You don’t have a mirror at home, but you have a toilet, right? Why don’t you take a pee and look at yourself in the toilet. See what you look like.”

Seeing that her daughter was losing, Yun Guilan also stood up. “Girl Yun, it’s just a small matter. Why are you making such a fuss? You’re making everyone laugh at us. We’re family after all. Can’t we talk about it behind closed doors?”

“Besides, your cousin didn’t do anything wrong. Why are you making such a big deal out of it? Why are you like this now? You used to be so well-behaved.”

At this moment, Hua Guafu and Chen Guafen, who were watching the drama unfold, said, “Yun Guilan, that’s not right. I saw your daughter with my own eyes. She was practically all over your daughter’s boyfriend’s face. How can you say she didn’t do anything?”

Yun Guilan shouted, “Hua Guafu, Chen Guafen, are you two bored? Why are you meddling? Everyone knows you two widows have been rolling around in the cornfields with countless men in the village.”

“You dare to meddle in my daughter’s business? If I were you, I would have hanged myself with a rope. You’re shameless sluts.”

Hua Guafu shouted, “Yun Guilan, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I’ll tear your mouth apart. What proof do you have? If you don’t have any proof, I’ll report you to the police for slander.”

“No wonder your daughter is so bad at such a young age. You taught her well. Like mother, like daughter. You’re both rotten to the core.”

“You even want to steal your own sister’s boyfriend. What else won’t you do? You see that educated youth has money, and you want to leech off him. Would he even look at your daughter?”

“Don’t you know what you look like? At least Girl Yun has a good figure, is beautiful, and has a nice body. What does your daughter have? Her waist is as thick as a bucket. You can’t even see where her waist is.”

“She also has bad breath. If she kissed someone, she would suffocate them. She has no self-awareness.”

“Ugh,” Hua Guafu spat on the ground. “If I were a man, I wouldn’t marry your daughter even if I was a bachelor. She’s ugly, and she’s full of scheming. Whoever marries her will have a miserable life.”

Xia Yunge hated it when people said she was ugly. She charged at Hua Guafu without hesitation. She raised her hand to hit Hua Guafu, but Hua Guafu, who had been working hard for years, grabbed her hand and slapped her twice.

Hua Guafu said, “You little slut, you’re so annoying. You dare to hit me. You do it, and you’re afraid of people talking? You’re so shallow. You see someone’s boyfriend and want to snatch him. You’re so desperate for a man.”

“Tsk, tsk,” Hua Guafu clicked her tongue. “I’m not saying this to be mean, but you should at least clean yourself up before trying to seduce someone. You haven’t bathed or washed your hair in eight hundred years. You reek. Even dogs would reject you.”

“Let alone that handsome educated youth. He must be blind to have fallen for someone like you. You’re shameless. You’re an embarrassment to our village.”

Yun Guilan shouted, “Hua Guafu, you slut! Why did you hit my daughter? I’m going to fight you!”

And so, Yun Guilan and Hua Guafu started fighting. They pulled each other’s hair, tore each other’s clothes, scratched each other’s faces, and pinched each other’s thighs. It was a lively fight.

The aunties and Sister who loved to watch the drama enjoyed the show.
