Chapter 67 Gossiping
Reading Settings
At this moment, Yunxi saw several lazy women huddled together by a big tree, heads close together, whispering something.
Yunxi glanced at them and lost interest in what they were saying. However, because her ears were so sharp, even if she didn't try to listen, what they were saying still unconsciously got into her ears.
"I couldn't sleep last night, so I went for a walk and spotted Liu Dabao from Liujia Village. He was acting suspiciously with someone. Guess what I heard?"
The gossipy auntie first piqued everyone's interest, then fell silent.
The aunties listening to the commotion nearby weren't happy about it and urged her to tell the story quickly, "Tell us, tell us, what happened next? What did you hear? Oh, hurry up and tell us, what are you dawdling about?"
Seeing that she had already piqued everyone's interest, the aunt who had spoken first stopped teasing them and said mysteriously, "I heard that Liu Dabao was talking to someone about making a move on Yunxi. When I heard this news, I was terrified. Yunxi is such a well-behaved girl, how could that beast Liu Dabao do such a thing?"
Those listening nearby also said indignantly, "That's right! Did you hear who they were talking to? We need to tell the captain and the others right away, then arrest them and beat them to death."
"I just couldn't recognize the voice he was talking to, so I didn't dare say anything. If word got out, wouldn't that alert them? But you'd never guess what that voice was..."
"What? What? Tell me quickly, don't keep me in suspense."
"The voice actually belonged to a girl, but it was so strange that I couldn't recognize it at first. I thought about it all night last night, but I couldn't figure out which girl in our Yunjia Village had that kind of voice. I was so angry that I couldn't even eat breakfast."
Yunxi never expected that listening to gossip would lead to hearing her own voice, and that someone would dare to make a move on her. It seems they all think she's easy to bully.
This auntie is quite nice; she was so angry that she didn't even eat breakfast. However, if she gossips about this here, it won't be long before the whole village knows, which will alert the enemy.
Knowing that she was talking about her own gossip, Yunxi walked slower and slower, trying to hear the whole story.
Are there things I'm afraid of?
How could I be afraid? As a peach tree spirit, I've never seen anyone deal with me before, so I might as well see how they do it.
By the way, let those scoundrels see how powerful my peach tree spirit is.
"Chunhua, did you hear why they wanted to make a move on Yunxi?"
"Yes, Yunxi is such a well-behaved girl, how could there be such a heartless person trying to take advantage of her?"
The people around them echoed each other, saying that they had never seen such a beautiful and well-behaved girl before, and that those hooligans would all die a horrible death.
"Of course I heard it. I squatted there for half an hour to find out their purpose. The mosquitoes bit me all over, but I didn't leave. I just wanted to hear what they were up to."
Perhaps thinking of the mosquito bites from last night, when I heard the word "mosquito," I instinctively scratched myself here and there.
If you look closely at her face, you can see several large mosquito bites, which makes it clear that she wasn't lying.
"Chunhua, your face is covered in mosquito bites. When the time comes, we'll find that shameless girl and give her a good beating to vent our anger."
"DaLiu, you're right. We can't just let her get away with this. I can't let the mosquitoes bite my face for nothing."
Seeing the two of them start chatting, the others nearby grew impatient and urged, "Hey, hurry up and tell us their purpose! What exactly is their purpose?"
Seeing that everyone else was getting impatient, he stopped scratching his itchy body and looked at them with an expression of disbelief. He whispered, "What else could it be? Although Yunxi has no one left in her family, her father sent his salary back every month when he was in the army. After he passed away, the pension he received was quite substantial."
Not to mention, their house is a tiled house, which is much better than most people in our village. People in our own village certainly wouldn't make a move on her, but others might.
Besides, don't forget, Yunxi is the prettiest girl in our village. They're after her and their money; those beasts are worse than dogs.
When she got to the end, Chunhua was really gritting her teeth. She said that Yunxi was so beautiful, so everyone in the village had the surname Yun, so same-sex marriage was definitely not allowed, but she couldn't let that good-for-nothing get away with it!
"Yes, yes, Yunxi is usually quite well-behaved, and she's also pretty. She doesn't go out much, so everyone subconsciously overlooks her family's circumstances and the fact that she's good-looking. We're just used to it, so we don't notice. It seems that people from other villages have found out about her and are trying to take advantage of her."
"It must have been spread by people in the village. I just don't know who that girl is. Why does she hate Yunxi so much and want others to bully her?"
“We can’t have such a vicious girl in our village. She’s really a ruthless killer. We’re only here because we know about this, so Yunxi will definitely be fine. If we didn’t know, we would have been harmed by that vicious girl without even knowing it.”
"That's right, that's right, let's hurry up and tell the brigade leader. He should arrange for people to keep watch in the village for the next two days. It would be even better if we could catch them red-handed, but if not, we can at least protect Yunxi."
"February is right. We should hurry up and tell the brigade leader. As for Yunxi, don't let it get out, lest she become anxious and frightened."
"Don't worry, we're not gossipy people, we definitely won't spread it."
As soon as the person who said this was asked to speak, he was met with glares from the others. They were all cunning and sly people, and everyone knew who they were.
Yunxi already had a guess in her mind. If she had to say who hated her the most in the village, apart from Yun Zhaodi and Yun Pandi from the Yun family, she couldn't think of anyone else.
If it were the two of them, Yunxi wouldn't doubt it at all, because just by looking into their eyes, she knew they wished they could kill her.
