Qiao Xiaomai scoffed lightly, staring at the ugly yellow face in front of her. She rolled her eyes and retorted, “Not everyone is like you, only thinking about stealing and seducing and the like.”

The word ‘seducing’ reminded Zhu Cuiying of her experience at the door of the Tong Family, causing her face to change and she rebuked, “Rubbish! 1 think it was you who stole my family’s silver!”

Upon hearing this accusation, Qiao Changshun who had been sitting by the door couldn’t help but stand up, his face turning red with anger, “Sister-in-law, how can you say that?!”

“I’m speaking the truth! Everyone in the village saw the day that shameless person took everything from your home and fled. Now, this wretch returns from town with a basket filled with goods, where did she get the silver to buy all those things?”

“Just yesterday, I lost five taels of silver from my home, I suspect she is the thief!”

Facing the honest Qiao Changshun, Zhu Cuiying raised her voice considerably, standing with one hand on her hip and the other pointing at Qiao Xiaomai, spitting as she spoke aggressively, like an abrasive woman.

She has been keeping in mind how Qiao Xiaomai had claimed she could make money that day.

So she had been quietly observing Qiao Xiaomai’s family these last few days, noting Qiao Xiaomai regularly making trips to town, something that many in the village also saw, especially today with her returning laden with goods.

She had been sitting here all morning just to discover how Qiao Xiaomai was making money.

Of course, if she could swindle some silver out of this as well, it would be even better.

With this thought, Zhu Cuiying’s voice grew louder, “I am going to search your home to find where my five taels of silver are hidden, move out of my way!”

As she spoke, she tried to reach out and rummage through Qiao Xiaomai’s basket.

Qiao Xiaomai dodged quickly, deftly grabbing Zhu Cuiying’s large hand, which was dry and coarse like tree bark. Using a bit of force, Zhu Cuiying instantly let out a scream like a slaughtered pig, “Let me go, you brat!”

As she spoke, she tried to use her other hand to scratch Qiao Xiaomai’s face.

She had long been irritated by Qiao Xiaomai’s attractive face and thought it would serve her right if she destroyed it!

Qiao Xiaomai snorted coldly, her other hand swiftly reaching out to grab Zhu Cuiying’s hand, then with a twist, she had both of Zhu Cuiying’s hands bound behind her.

Zhu Cuiying had never been subjected to such treatment in her entire life. The abuse coming from her grew louder, “Let go of me, you shameless woman!”

“Auntie, you’re accusing me of stealing your family’s silver without any proof, we should take this matter to the Village Chief. We may be poor, but neither Dami nor 1 have ever harboured such crooked thoughts,” Qiao Xiaomai ignored Zhu Cuiying’s curses, holding her hands tightly.

Against Zhu Cuiying, who bullied the weak and feared the strong, she had to show some strength.

Besides, now that she was working on earning silver, for the sake of peace, she had to take a tough stance.

With that, she looked towards Qiao Changshun standing at the door, “Dad, close the door, let’s go to the Village Chief’s house.”

Hearing this, Qiao Changshun actually closed the door and locked it.

Seeing this, Zhu Cuiying struggled more violently, “Let go of me, you wretch! You must have stolen my family’s silver, your whole family are thieves, all dishonourable people!”

“How dare you lay a hand on me, 1 will beat you to death, let go of me!”

Qiao Xiaomai held on to Zhu Cuiying tightly, striding quickly towards the Village Chief’s house, “Auntie, you can say that in front of the Village Chief.”

“Let go of me, you wretch!” Unable to break free, Zhu Cuiying twisted her head, trying to spit at Qiao Xiaomai.

Qiao Xiaomai frowned, quickly sidestepping, while lightly pushing with her arms, shoving Zhu Cuiying away.

A glob of thick saliva landed on the ground. Zhu Cuiying staggered a few steps backward, almost falling..
