Chapter 16

But no mother would tell the truth like this in front of her own children.

Fan Fuying’s eyes rolled around and he blurted out a lie: “How dare I let you eat anything your sister-in-law Yan made! I was afraid that her food wouldn’t be good, so I tried it myself first to make sure it was okay before I dared to let you eat it! Now that you’ve seen it, it’s a good thing I didn’t let you eat it, otherwise you would have had a stomachache like me.”

Shuai Shuai didn’t doubt his mother’s words, and angrily spoke up for his mother: “Aunt Yan is so mean! Mom, you should go find Aunt Yan and ask her to compensate you!”

Shuai Shuai’s words coincided with Fan Fuying’s inner thoughts. She was already planning to go to Yan Xi’s stall tomorrow and make a scene. Not only would she be unable to do business in the future, but she would also have to make Yan Xi pay back the money she spent on the spicy strips yesterday!

Thinking of this plan, Fan Fuying’s stomach didn’t hurt as much anymore.

“Shuai Shuai, go with mom to find Yan Xi tomorrow. Just tell them that you also had a stomachache after eating the spicy strips she sold.” Fan Fuying suggested.

Sun Gui frowned: “How did you teach your son to lie?”

“Do you think I want my son to lie? You know Yan Xi’s character. She is such a shameless person. If I go to her by myself, will she admit it? If I don’t let my son go with me, I might be the one who suffers!” Fan Fuying yelled.

“You can’t be sure that your diarrhea is caused by eating the spicy noodles sold by Yan Xi. It’s not like you didn’t eat anything else today except the spicy noodles.” Sun Gui said.

Fan Fuying naturally knew this truth, but she had finally caught an opportunity to embarrass Yan Xi, so how could she let it go?

“What did I eat today? Why did I have a stomachache? Don’t I know it myself? I am very sure that I had a stomachache because of the spicy noodles sold by Yan Xi.”

“Old Sun, you know how much trouble Yan Xi causes in the compound and how much people dislike her. Why are you so supportive of her today?” Fan Fuying was very unhappy.

Sun Gui was not siding with anyone. He just felt that if Fan Fuying went to find Yan Xi without any basis, he might not necessarily gain the upper hand.

But he was too lazy to care about the affairs between his wives.

Sun Gui picked up the wine glass and drank, saying impatiently: “It’s up to you, do whatever you want.”

So, the next day, Fan Fuying hid behind the window and after confirming that Yan Xi had gone out with the small backpack that she always carried, Fan Fuying deliberately lingered at home for a long time and then went out with Shuai Shuai.

In order to boost her own morale, Fan Fuying also called Guo Xia and Feng Lingling to join the party – at this time she didn’t know that the most wrong decision she had ever made was to call Feng Lingling.

Fan Fuying exaggerated the situation in front of Guo Xia and Feng Lingling, saying that after she returned home yesterday afternoon, she had severe diarrhea and was almost fainting.

She also told the two of them to help her speak up later.

Both of them agreed readily.

When the four of them arrived at the market and found Yan Xi’s stall, it was surrounded by passers-by just like yesterday, all scrambling to buy spicy strips.

Fan Fuying felt jealous, but soon she became arrogant again.

The more people there are, the better. The more people there are, the more embarrassed Yan Xi will be. From tomorrow on, she won’t be able to sell anything here anymore!

Fan Fuying rolled up his sleeves and walked over aggressively.

She pushed aside the passers-by who were surrounding her and squeezed in: “Get out of the way, get out of the way! I want to settle accounts with the owner of this stall!”

When passers-by heard her words and saw her attitude, they automatically made way for her.

“Don’t buy it, or you’ll be poisoned to death!” Fan Fuying pushed away the uncle who was buying spicy strips in the innermost part, causing the oil paper in the uncle’s hand to fly out and the spicy strips to fall to the ground.

When Yan Xi saw Fan Fuying, her expression remained calm and her tone was even a little cheerful.

“Hey, isn’t this Captain Sun’s wife, Sister Fan? How come you finally have time to come to my spicy noodle stall?”

“Stop acting crazy and stupid here!”

Fan Fuying pointed at Yan Xi’s nose and warned her, then turned to the onlookers and said, “Everyone, please judge for me! I bought spicy noodles from her yesterday and ate them with my son. We started to have diarrhea after we finished eating. We had diarrhea the whole night and didn’t sleep well. Before dawn, my son and I went to the health station to get an IV drip before we felt better.”

“My son and I only ate the spicy noodles she sold yesterday. We didn’t eat anything else. I’m sure my son and I had diarrhea because of the spicy noodles she sold!”

“Luckily she sold it at a high price, so I didn’t buy much. My son and I don’t eat much. If we had bought a lot yesterday and eaten it all, my son and I would have died!”

“I saw that she and I were from the same compound. It wasn’t easy for her to sell her own food, so I came here specially to do business for her. And since her products were so expensive, the ingredients she used shouldn’t be bad, right? But I didn’t know that I trusted her too much and almost harmed my son and myself!”

“These two sisters-in-law also bought the spicy strips she sold yesterday. They, like me, had diarrhea all night.” Fan Fuying pointed at Guo Xia and Feng Lingling.

Passersby looked at them.

Being watched by so many people, the two of them suddenly felt panicked and unsure.

Fan Fuying had not informed them beforehand that she would reveal their identities as military wives!

Their men have special identities. If they lie in front of so many people, will it affect their men?

Seeing that Guo Xia and Feng Lingling seemed dumbfounded and did not say a word for a long time, Fan Fuying was anxious and angry, and she winked at them frantically, but she did not dare to do it too obviously for fear of being discovered by onlookers.

“right.”

“Um.”

Under Fan Fuying’s silent pressure, Guo Xia and Feng Lingling gritted their teeth and spoke vaguely, their voices as soft as mosquitoes, and the people behind them could not hear them at all.

Shuai Shuai got anxious and stood up to defend his mother: “This aunt has a very bad reputation in our place. No one likes her. She is lazy and eats and drinks at other people’s houses all day long! I ate the spicy noodles she made and almost died!”

Even a child said this, and passers-by began to doubt Yan Xi.

“Luckily I haven’t bought her spicy strips yet. If they really killed someone, how would I seek justice?”

“She sells it at such a high price and keeps saying that she uses the best ingredients, but it makes people have stomach upsets.”

“The salesperson never speaks the truth. If she really used the best ingredients, people wouldn’t have stomach upsets and wouldn’t come to her to reason.”

“It’s over. I’ve been eating her spicy noodles for two days. I hope nothing will happen to me.”

“Go to the hospital right away, don’t let anything happen to you.”

The uncle whose spicy strips were pushed away by Fan Fuying earlier was still feeling sorry for the spicy strips on the ground, but now after witnessing this, he felt that Fan Fuying’s push was so good that it simply saved his life!
