Chapter 96

As winter approached, there were fewer vendors in Heman Town.Everyone is afraid of the cold, and many people stay at home with cats and don't go out.

At this time, those who can still insist on walking dozens of miles of dirt roads to come to the town to do business are all from families who are too poor to let go.

Shen Yao earned a lot of money as a matchmaker. Although Chen Xiang'e was not her own mother, the two depended on each other for life, and they were no different from mother and daughter.

Although Shen Yao didn't say it clearly, the financial power of the family has long been handed over to Chen Xiang'e, but Chen Xiang'e just doesn't want to rest at home and insists on coming out to earn money in the cold.

Shen Yao hid in the dark, seeing Chen Xiang'e stomping her feet from the cold and flushing her cheeks, she couldn't help feeling a little bit of unbearable.

After observing for a while, Shen Yao didn't find anything unusual. She couldn't help but licked the corners of her lips. Maybe Chen Xiang'e just didn't want to come out to be cold by herself, and nothing unpleasant happened, right?
Just as she was about to walk over to help Chen Xiang'e sell, a curse stopped Shen Yao's footsteps.

"Hey! It's over, it's over! Didn't you see the boundary is drawn here? This is my territory, and that's yours!"

It was a loud voice, and there were not many people on the street at this time, and almost everyone in the street could hear it.

Shen Yao narrowed her eyes, and looked at the woman who was arrogantly playing tricks on Chen Xiang'e.

She is thin and small, with long yellow hair, and the clothes on her body are not only worn out but also a little dirty.

Such an unremarkable woman would definitely be drowned in the crowd, but this woman bossed her around and made herself look like a rich and powerful person.

why?
Because she has a big backer behind her!

Chen Xiang'e was selling Roujiamo with her hands in her hands. When she heard the woman's cry, her face turned dark, and her voice was very impatient: "What are you calling! I didn't cross that line. Which of your eyes saw me pass?" out of bounds?"

Aunt Hai, who was tidying up the nets, also said, "Wu Erniang, don't make trouble for nothing. The girl from the Chen family came to this place first, and you came later. It would be great if I could make room for you to sell things. Stop bullying people!"

As soon as Aunt Hai finished speaking, Erniang Wu opened her voice and cursed: "Oh! Look, look, bullying, isn't it? You came late to bully me, Erniang Wu? Ha, this street belongs to big guys, why did you come early? We are not allowed to set up stalls for business? Son! Put things away and see who dares to drive us away!"

As soon as the words fell, a fleshy young man dropped a large bundle of firewood on his shoulders to the ground.

No wonder Wu Erniang is confident, because this woman has a [-] or [-]-year-old son as her backer!
Wu Yanping threw the firewood on the ground, and the two hundred catties of fat on his body also trembled. He looked around with wide eyes, and growled softly: "Don't think that we orphans and widows are good. Bullying! Who dares to bully my mother, my hatchet doesn't have eyes!"

As he spoke, he waved a rusty hatchet in his hand.

As soon as the hatchet was lit, Chen Xiang'e and Aunt Hai, who were still complaining, immediately shut up, not because they were frightened by the hatchet, but because of this brat's stupidity.

It is said that those who are stupid are afraid of being stunned, and those who are stunned are afraid of dying. If this stunned boy is really in a hurry, it is really impossible to say what he will do regardless of the consequences.

Seeing this, Shen Yao completely understood the purpose of Chen Xiang'e not allowing her to accompany her to the town to sell things.

It's no wonder that Chen Xiang'e was worried, how could Shen Yao's violent temper bear such anger?Isn't Wu Yanping holding a hatchet?She will definitely charge up with a kitchen knife.

A hatchet and a kitchen knife, let's not say which one is more powerful, but if there is a real fight, there will definitely be deaths and injuries.

She would not let her child suffer this kind of harm, she simply did not let Shen Yao know about it, and it was settled once and for all.

Shen Yao bit her lip, if she was in the past, she definitely wouldn't understand Chen Xiang'e's good intentions.But after reliving her life, she understood many things. Even though she was so angry that she was about to jump, she still suppressed her anger and slowly thought of a countermeasure.

Seeing that Chen Xiang'e and Aunt Hai stopped talking, Wu Erniang smiled even more proudly, and deliberately moved her firewood to Chen Xiang'e's side, which happened to be on the boundary line that the two had negotiated before.

Chen Xiang'e was busy cleaning up the meat buns that were soiled by Wu Yanping's firewood, and when she saw Wu Erniang's actions, she couldn't help but asked, "Wu Erniang, did you do it on purpose?"

Wu Erniang raised her chin, with a confident look on her face: "Yes, I did it on purpose, what can you do to me? Oh, I have already asked, your short-lived son died long ago, and you were divorced by your in-laws. You Ah, now there is only one goddaughter who was picked up halfway to support her. Haha, what is the use of a girl? Don’t you have to let you come to the street in this winter to starve, freeze, and be bullied? It’s not like me, I I have a son, let's see who dares to bully me!"

"Wu Erniang! You are too much!"

Aunt Hai was acquainted with Chen Xiang'e, so she naturally knew how much Meng Xiangxi's early death had hit her. She was trembling with anger when she heard Wu Erniang so blatantly sprinkle salt on his scars.

However, Wu Erniang didn't give her a good face: "Too much? What right do you have to say that I am too much? You don't have a son!"

She curled her lips, and Wu Erniang rolled her eyes: "The only daughter is still a lame, no one wants to lose money!"

"you!"

Aunt Hai staggered so angry that she almost fell down.

Uncle Hai, who had been silent all this time, finally couldn't hold back any longer, and rushed over two steps: "You, if you spray dung all over your mouth, I'll tear your mouth apart!"

"Whose mouth do you dare to tear apart?!"

Wu Yanping held the hatchet in front of his mother, his face was trembling, and his nostrils were about to spit out hot air.

"Whoever sprays dung will tear whoever!"

Uncle Hai was so angry and impatient, he lowered his head and turned around on the ground, finally found a stone and held it in his hand.

It's just that compared with Wu Yanping's hatchet, his little rock is really useless.

"Old man!"

Aunt Hai was terrified, Hai Xiaolian was already lame and unmarried, if something happened to the old man, the two of them would die!
"Yo! Why is this so lively?"

Shen Yao's crisp laughter broke the deadlock.

 It is also a widow, having a son is different from not having a son. Even because of having a daughter, Aunt Hai is shorter in front of Wu Erniang. This is not an exception in ancient times, and there are many such cases even in modern times People scold them as extinct households, such phenomena abound~
