Chapter 1333: Chapter 1155: Xiao’ai, Dabao, Xiaobei

When Widow Chen arrived upon hearing the commotion, the villagers had already dispersed, and Nan Feng’s family had started eating. She peeked from outside, where a group of people was eating and chatting away, obviously too preoccupied to bother with her.

Not willing to give up, Widow Chen loitered outside to eavesdrop for a while, but all she heard was talk about gang leaders and Hall Masters, which made no sense to her. She was about to slink away when she suddenly bumped into another person sneaking around.

Upon closer inspection, wasn’t that her nemesis, Auntie Zhao?

Auntie Zhao had the same idea as Widow Chen. She was mainly envious of Lanlan bringing some dried fruits home, thinking that Auntie Zhao had hoarded good things without sharing. Once Lanlan mentioned that Xia Ye’s family had guests over and many people around got a share, she immediately came over.

Now everyone inside was busy eating, and the courtyard door was even bolted, clearly indicating that they didn’t want to be disturbed, so she felt embarrassed to intrude.

Auntie Zhao also noticed Widow Chen.

Anyone appearing here at this time would obviously be here for a certain reason, but both women, concerned about their pride, didn’t want the other to know they were there to ask for handouts.

Auntie Zhao quickly regained her composure and pretended to look for chickens and ducks, "I was out looking for chickens, and I didn’t expect to encounter someone begging for things, how shameless. To think she’s not only thieving, but now she also wants to come and ask for things."

Once Widow Chen heard this, she knew Auntie Zhao was insulting her. Feeling embarrassed at initially being caught by Auntie Zhao, and now offended by her harsh words, she couldn’t hold back, "Looking for chickens? I’ve been standing here for quite a while and haven’t seen a feather. What ’damn’ chickens are you searching for? You’re the one who’s here to ask for things. I came because Axiang has been getting close to Xia Ye’s Dabao, just to see if Axiang was around, that’s all."

"Oh, don’t make it sound so pleasant. I’m well aware of what kind of person Axiang is. That dumb lump would never come here to play unless she had a knife to her throat. You’re obviously green with envy because you saw others taking good things home from this family and wanted some for yourself. Why use Axiang to save face? Besides, Axiang is no saint herself, always hanging around Xia Ye’s Daniu, such a deep schemer. It’s only because Dabao is a lady; if it were a man, she’d have tricked him into bed by now. You sure have passed on your seductive skills to your daughter!" retorted Auntie Zhao as she walked back.

Widow Chen wasn’t going to let it go and lunged forward to grab Auntie Zhao, "What are you saying? If you can’t keep your man, that’s your incompetence. If you were capable, would your man be in my bed? Also, you know exactly what kind of person Axiang is, but your whole family still ganged up to bully her, yet you don’t stop pouring dirt on her! I remember that Axiang is still considered part of your household, aren’t she?"

"Who’s throwing dirt? A chip off the old block, that’s what it is. And she went back on her own. Unless she returns on her own volition, do not expect our Datu to fetch her. She doesn’t deserve it!"

"..."

The two women outside were squabbling back and forth, and Nan Feng’s family inside could hear everything.

Lu Jianxi could hear each and every word clearly, and she couldn’t help asking, "The ones arguing outside, are they your neighbors? They’re quite tactless, aren’t they?"

If this had been the battlefield, she would have drawn her sword and chased them away.

Nan Feng simply smiled, "It’s nothing, just some villagers who love to snatch at petty advantages. Abao, go out and give some dried fruits to Widow Chen and Auntie Zhao, and let them quarrel elsewhere."
