Chapter 362: 362 The Little Actor Takes the Stage

Lin Tang heard these words from Xiaohua’s children’s mouths.

As soon as she heard them, she was enraged.

Indeed, every village has a few gossipy, long-tongued women.

It’s truly annoying!

"Xiaohua, do my family members know about this news?"

Xiaohua shook her head.

"Goudan and the others haven’t come out in the last couple of days; we didn’t find the chance to tell them."

From these words, Lin Tang got the information she needed.

Goudan and the others were being watched.

The family probably didn’t know about this yet.

She pinched her fingers, emitting a crisp cracking sound.

It sent chills down one’s spine.

"Tang, Sister Tangtang?" The little tots were startled.

Wuwuwu, Sister Tangtang’s expression is so scary!

Lin Tang realized she had frightened the little ones and immediately regained her composure within a second.

Her face was adorned with a faint smile.

No matter who looked at her, she was the gentle and pretty little fairy.

"Xiaohua, Maishou... I need your help with something, are you willing to be my little witnesses?"

Upon hearing they were needed, Xiaohua and the little ones’ eyes lit up instantly.

"...We’re willing, we’re willing! Are we going to settle the score with the bad guys?" Xiaohua said, raring to go.

Her little fists were clenched tightly, and excitement reddened her little face.

Her mother said those who spread those words were just talking crap, and told her not to believe them.

Hmph, she never believed them anyways!

Lin Tang looked at the indignant expressions of the children and couldn’t help but feel a mix of amusement and sympathy.

"...Just truthfully speak out what you saw and heard."

Xiaohua nodded earnestly.

"Rest assured, Sister Tangtang, we know this!"

Isn’t it just mimicking how adults talk? They’re experienced in this!!

After the talk, Lin Tang led the village children with a formidable air to the house of Widow Huaxing, who was the most vicious in slandering her family.

Widow Huaxing didn’t expect Lin Tang to come find her.

She felt a slight unease in her heart, yet her face was filled with confusion.

"...Lin Tang, why have you come to my house, what’s the matter?"

Lin Tang looked at Widow Huaxing with a smile that was not quite a smile.

Without any superfluous words, she went straight to the point.

"...Auntie Hua, you’ve been spreading gossip about my uncle, haven’t you? Who told you to do that?!"

After hearing the account from Xiaohua and the others, she felt something was off.

What was it? The focus of the incident itself was wrong.

If there wasn’t someone behind it, the content wouldn’t involve the uncle.

Thus, there must be someone fanning the flames in the background.

As for who it was, she had her suspicions.

Now, the task at hand was to drag out the vermin behind this.

Upon hearing Lin Tang’s words, Widow Huaxing’s heart thumped wildly.

It was pounding like crazy!

She was terrified!

She spread the news stealthily; how did Lin Tang find out?

And how did Lin Tang immediately know someone had asked her to do so...?

This was too frightening!

"What are you talking about? I don’t understand what you’re saying," Widow Huaxing said, avoiding eye contact and feigning ignorance.

Chen Jiefang was chopping wood in the courtyard and, after hearing the conversation between the two, glanced at Hua Xing and then at Lin Tang.

"Lin Tang, what do you mean by that?"

After asking, his gaze shifted back to Hua Xing.

"...Xing, you haven’t caused any trouble, have you?"

Widow Huaxing’s eyes flickered, and she put on an expression of earnest honesty.

"What trouble could I possibly cause?" she said with affected grievance.

"I’m busy all day at home; you see that every day..."

Thinking of the endless chores at home made Hua Xing particularly frustrated.

Her resentment towards Chen Jiefang grew a bit more.

She had initially thought that having a man in the house would make life easier.

Little did she know, life didn’t get easier, and the burden was even heavier.

Chen Jiefang, with his male chauvinism, earned little but ate a lot.

I don’t know how Zhao Honghua managed to endure it for a decade or two.

Chen Jiefang shifted his eyes away unnaturally in response to Hua Xing’s dissatisfied look.

Glancing towards Lin Tang.

"...Auntie Hua hasn’t really gone out these days, so she probably hasn’t been gossiping about the Captain, right? You could be mistaken?"

Lin Tang’s eyes were faintly colored as she glanced at the few little ones following her.

Xiaohua and the others couldn’t help but follow her mood.

The children exchanged looks and nodded in tacit agreement.

They prepared with the enthusiasm of staging a grand play.

Xiaohua even started assigning roles to the others.

To a dark-skinned boy she said, "You play ’Great Auntie Sister’..."

She was referring to Big Sister Liu from the village.

Pointing to another, "You be Auntie Atao..."

"You..."

After assigning roles, she said, "I’ll play Auntie Hua."

"Do you all still remember what the aunties said at the time?" Xiaohua asked seriously with a stern little face.

Little Heizi, who was asked to play Big Sister Liu, pouted uncomfortably:

"I’m a boy, why should I play Great Auntie Sister?

Can’t I play a man?

If that’s not possible, even playing the old tree at the entrance to the village would do."

Xiaohua, hands on hips, said fiercely, "No negotiating, just say if you’re willing or not."

Little Heizi felt like crying, "...Willing."

With Sister Tangtang around, could he even say he was unwilling?!

Xiaohua is so fierce; she’ll definitely have trouble getting married in the future!

Xiaohua saw that her friends had no objections.

She clapped her hands, "Alright, let’s start then."

As she spoke, her eyes rolled around, imitating Hua Xing’s typical gossiping expression.

She started, saying:

"Did you hear? Hongyan was taken away by the police..."

As she spoke, she fiddled with the hair by her ear.

"I heard that Zhang Hongyan was arrested for murder."

Little Heizi then chimed in, imitating Big Sister Liu.

First, he wrinkled his lips, clicking his tongue meaningfully.

"Who would have thought, Hongyan, all skinny and weak, dared to commit murder.

So, does that mean our Captain’s family member is... a murderer?"

After saying so, he exaggeratedly shivered.

The imitation was vivid.

"Oh my, that’s terrifying. Just the thought of it makes one’s skin crawl."

The performer for Hua Xing, Xiaohua, continued.

She took a sharp intake of breath,

and widened her eyes in fright.

"Hearing Big Sister say that, it really does make one feel scared."

The other children overacted their shivers, imitating the exaggeration of onlookers.

One little tot pinched their nose, imitating someone with a scared voice:

"You can’t judge a book by its cover; even honest people can be terrifying when they get vicious.

Let’s drop this subject, better talk about something else."

Xiaohua, playing Hua Xing, showed just the right amount of regret on her face.

Afterward, she looked at Lin Tang with shining eyes, seeking praise.

They did a good imitation, right?!

Lin Tang pulled out some candy and handed it to the several little actors who did well.

"You all did great."

The children were thrilled to be praised by their beloved big sister, their faces blushing with joy.

Xiaohua was especially happy, her eyes squinted into thin slits.

"Thanks for the candy, Sister Tangtang."

Lin Tang smiled, "No need to thank me, you helped me out today; go on and play now."

Xiaohua carefully put the candy into her pocket.

She glanced at Widow Hua, whose face looked so sour it was as if she could eat someone.

After a moment’s hesitation, she and her friends left.

But once outside, they didn’t hurry away.

Instead, they clung to the doorframe, staring inside.

If Widow Hua dared to bully Sister Tangtang, they would call for help!
