Chapter 322: Chapter 322 Preparing the Banquet (3)_1

"Speaking of which, when the Xiu family held Xiu Cheng’s full moon celebration, all four of our rooms gave five yuan each, and that was seven years ago. This time, the gift should at least be five yuan, right? I couldn’t believe it when she only brought over two yuan. I really thought for a moment that the person helping to write the gift list made a mistake."

"The thing from the Xiu family, that’s not just any shabby bed. My maternal aunt’s daughter-in-law works in the city, and she said it’s called a Simmons. You can’t find one that can’t be bought with a big reunion bill," someone who had seen the bed mentioned while visiting, saying to Liu Mei.

As soon as this statement was made, everyone else was amazed.

"That expensive?"

"A big reunion bill, tsk tsk, the Ruan family is really becoming wealthy."

"Exactly. I just heard my old man say that Ruan Jianguo is even planning to open a restaurant in the city. You think they’d be short of that bit of money?"

"..."

"What! A big reunion bill, who are you trying to fool!" Liu Mei heard this and scoffed, rolling her eyes, not believing that a bed could cost an entire big reunion bill.

The other person, who was straightforward, snorted in response, "Who has time to scare you? If you don’t believe it, go ahead and sit on it. If you break it, let’s see what you have to compensate with." As the conversation continued, the tone shifted to a sarcastic one, "After all, you’re the kind of person who couldn’t even come up with a hundred and fifty yuan for medical expenses, so poor you had to sell your own son. Whether you can afford to compensate is really another matter, isn’t it?"

Seven years ago, when Xiu Xi’s mother had just passed away, Liu Mei married into the Xiu family right after and gave birth to Xiu Cheng that same year. No one is a fool here; if there weren’t any shenanigans in between, who would believe it?

There were even rumors suggesting how Xiu Xi’s mother might have died...

In the beginning, Liu Mei was almost the talk of the production team after meals, only quieting down in the last few years.

But the recent incident where Liu Mei sold Xiu Xi for a mere one hundred and fifty yuan brought back all the memories of her past actions, making them once again the topic of conversation in the production team.

As the saying goes, people’s words are to be feared. Even Liu Mei couldn’t withstand the recent rumors spreading around the village, especially when Xiu Jianlin heard about them; he always blamed her, infuriating her greatly.

Lately, the two of them would argue over every trivial matter. The day before yesterday, Xiu Jianlin even almost came to blows with her.

Upon hearing these words now, she completely exploded, pointing at the speaker and scolding, "Wu Caiyun, what do you mean by that? You shameless slut, don’t think I don’t know it’s you spreading those rumors around! You have the nerve to talk about me, but I wonder who was the one caught naked in the firewood pile, pregnant with someone’s child!"

"Pah! Even if I’m shameless, I didn’t fool around with someone else’s man!" Wu Caiyun, who was fierce by nature, immediately retorted. Indeed, she got married while pregnant, but so what? The child in her belly was her own husband’s, and she never stole another family’s man.

As soon as she spoke, the crowd erupted into an uproar of noise and laughter.

Her words were a blatant accusation that Liu Mei had an affair with another family’s man.

Liu Mei, seeing everyone point and whisper about her, got so angry that her mind went blank, and she forgot where she was. She raised her hand and started fighting.

Wu Caiyun got her hair grabbed and her neck scratched by Liu Mei, who had no intention of fighting. But after getting hit, she couldn’t hold back, and in an instant, the two were tangled in a brawl.
