Chapter 1464: Chapter 1464: Tit for Tat 3

A single word is like a slap, a series of slaps struck Wa Zhanling’s face consecutively, cracking loudly.

"You..." Just as Wa Zhanling was about to get angry, she suddenly remembered that Qingyun’s sister was Lu Jiang’s wife, Feng Qingxue, and Lu Jiang was one of the youngest commanders in charge of the Viva Army, holding significant power.

The difference between those who hold military power and those who do not is like heaven and earth.

Wa Zhanling dared to boss Qingyun around, but she didn’t dare to throw a tantrum at Feng Qingxue, especially since there was an old man beside her who knew her family’s background but whom she did not recognize and who was accompanied by guards.

Contacting the word "you", Wa Zhanling suddenly didn’t know how to continue.

Feng Qingxue smiled faintly, shielding her niece behind her, and said politely: "Comrade Wa Zhanling, right? We come from a rural background, poor farmers, our humble origins aren’t fit to climb high, unlike your diplomatic family of nobility. There’s no need for you to be so aggressively intimidating and scare our children."

Lu Erxiong was quick to steal the spotlight, immediately patting his chest, clapping his hands together, "So scared, so scared! I’m so frightened I might eat one less bowl of rice tonight, oh my roast duck!"

The roast duck Luo Cheng last bought ended up becoming his.

"Xiaoxue, that’s not right to say. Our children are so excellent, aren’t they? Educated and outstanding, others should be the ones unable to reach them!" Luo Cheng murmured right after, "All of us are peasants, who’s more noble? The so-called prestigious families have long since vanished, must this old man keep repeating this fact over and over?"

The middle-aged woman and the young woman next to Wa Zhanling suddenly blushed, saying to Wa Zhanling: "We, mother and daughter, also cannot climb so high, Comrade Wa Zhanling, we take our leave. As for the money for the roast duck tonight, we’ll have the child’s father send it to your family later!"

After speaking, the middle-aged woman hurriedly left with her daughter.

"An Yi, Ming Li!" Wa Zhanling hurried her steps and before catching up, she turned back and said to Feng Qingyun, "You’d better be aware of your place, a singer should not be entangling our Zhanpeng!"

"Wait!" Feng Qingxue called out to her.

Wa Zhanling, eager to chase after the others, said impatiently: "With things being said to this point, I think you as the elder sister understand well the importance of matching social status. What more is there to say?"

This matter had already drawn the side glances of many, yet it was actually Wa Zhanling herself who lacked self-awareness the most.

Feng Qingxue, holding her sister, looked around at everyone, and said unhurriedly and seriously: "Since the founding of the nation, no profession is deemed superior or inferior. Please retract the highly insulting word ’singer’. Also, although we sisters are daughters of rural peasants, powerless and without influence, our clean reputation is of utmost importance. We must clarify here to not let anyone misinterpret my sister as trying to rise above her station. My sister is sixteen this year, dedicated and earnest in her duties, and not considering marriage yet. You don’t need to make hurtful comments out of concern for mismatched social statuses. As you yourself admitted, your Wa family is of a high social standing—too high for us to aspire to!"

"Exactly, too high for us to aspire to!" Qingyun earnestly said, "Please convey to Comrade Zhanpeng to stop pestering me in the future. I’m just a modest girl, who did I provoke? Bringing me such trouble!"
