It's hard to be a stepmother, my disabled husband takes care of my child
Chapter 40 Do you dare to make a bet with me?
"I know my husband is in a coma, my two children are young, and I'm a stepmother, so you can't help but look down on me. But I'm not someone you can mess with! I said I've turned over a new leaf and raised my two children well. Since you don't believe me, don't blame me for being rude to you! Anyway, I'm just a rotten life, so at worst we can die together!"
When the villagers heard Su Man's words, they all turned away. At the same time, they were actually a little worried and sighing in their hearts, because they were worried that Su Man would really die with them.
They don't want to die so early.
And they are just worried about their own lives and the lives of their families. Is that wrong?
The village head and his wife and Aunt Mei felt sorry for Su Man when they saw this.
Aunt Cui: "What nonsense are you all talking about? Xiao Su has changed now, but you still want to embarrass her, right? We are all from the same village, can't you treat Xiao Su well?"
The village chief also said with a sullen face, "That's right, they have made the changes but you old man are not happy about it. What do you think? Didn't I tell you that we are all from the same village and we should help each other? Is this how you help each other?"
Aunt Mei also said with a "Pooh" sound, "I think you are just jealous of Xiao Su's change for the better. How can you be so evil? You just believe whatever the Taoist priest says?
You actually trust someone you just met instead of the people in our village? How could Xiao Su be a dirty person? Are you all so bored at home in winter that your hats are no longer useful? What are you all talking nonsense for? "
It must be said that after Su Man heard Aunt Mei's words, she really couldn't help but want to applaud Aunt Mei. These words made those who had just criticized her lower their heads in shame and embarrassment.
When Su Man heard several people talking for her, she felt a little warmer in her heart.
In fact, he has been exposed to the killer industry since he was a child. Except for his mother, he has never received any warmth from this world. Therefore, he is very indifferent to the warmth and coldness of these human relationships. He doesn't care at all and even doesn't believe in the existence of such things.
But now, she felt that it was not impossible to believe it, and it was okay to believe it a little.
"As for why they believed an outsider and not me, I think Fatty and Wang should have a say. Maybe they have known this so-called Taoist priest for a long time?"
Su Man's slow words immediately changed the expressions of Fatty and Widow Wang, and also stunned the people around them.
Although they were somewhat surprised by Su Man's words, they couldn't help but wonder if this was possible after thinking about it carefully. After all, Fatty and Widow Wang had been very positive at the beginning.
When they heard the villagers' discussion about them, they were really panicked.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Widow Wang said quickly, "How could we know him? We only saw him in the village. Don't talk nonsense, you are slandering us!"
"That's right, you are slandering us. Are we that kind of people?" The fat lady reacted very quickly, "You bitch, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I will tear your mouth apart!"
Although the two spoke with great confidence, they could not conceal the guilt in their eyes.
Su Man looked at the two men and sneered, then walked up to them and threw the fake Taoist priest in front of her.
"Whether it is true or not, you know it in your hearts. Of course, I will make you admit it. The fake Taoist priest is right here. Can't we find out by asking him?"
"Bullshit!" Widow Wang yelled angrily, "How can we live like this? Since you know that we are from the same village, why do you want to slander us like this? Do you have any evidence? If not, I don't agree!"
Fatty: "That's right, you keep saying that we are all from the same village, but when Su Man slandered us, why didn't you say we are from the same village?"
The villagers were immediately inspired by the two men.
Su Man was about to speak, but the fat lady spoke first and said something to the village chief.
"Village chief, we ask for impartiality. You keep saying that we are all from the same village, but do you think they are from the same village? She actually said that Wang Saozi and I brought this Taoist priest here. How could we possibly bring a Taoist priest here? What do we want from bringing him here?"
As she spoke, she pretended to be aggrieved in a very emotional voice.
The village chief frowned, then looked at Su Man with an embarrassed expression and said,
"Xiao Su, if you want to talk about this matter, you must produce evidence, otherwise it is really not good."
Su Man nodded to the village chief.
"I know, Uncle He, don't worry, I know what to do. If I don't have evidence, I will never say anything. If I don't have evidence later, I will accept any punishment.
But if I find evidence that Fatty and Widow Wang have any connection with this master, then I will not let it go. I am not someone you can easily mess with. They must pay the price for what they did today!"
When she spoke the latter part, her eyes were sharp and her voice was cold, which inexplicably made Fatty and Widow Wang a little more afraid.
Widow Wang rolled her eyes and then immediately started crying.
"No, Village Chief, I am a widow. My reputation is very important. If Miss Su makes a scene again, how will others look at me? I really can't live like this!
Even if it has nothing to do with me in the end, my reputation will be ruined. How can I live in the future? What else can I do? I might as well die!"
As she spoke, she gave Fatty Sister a look, signaling her to speak quickly.
Fortunately, the fat lady also received this look very clearly and immediately joined in.
"Village head, what Wang Saozi said is right. I don't mind it. At most, I will just feel a little wronged and uncomfortable. But Wang Saozi is a widow. Her reputation is very important. If something like this happens again, all the rumors and bad words will be attributed to her. How can she live her life in the future? This is not a joke!"
She seemed to be talking about it all for Widow Wang's sake.
Su Man's eyes became a little colder and a little mocking, so she asked the two of them to say a few more words.
Widow Wang was also crying the whole time, showing the attitude of a weak person to the highest level.
The village chief was also very troubled after hearing these words, because he felt that if the situation continued like this, Widow Wang might really...
The master now understood his position and instantly realized what was going on.
"You are simply ungrateful. I came to your village for free to help you get rid of the evil spirits. I am just doing good deeds and accumulating virtue.
Then you guys said I was a liar and that I was in cahoots with these two sisters-in-law. How could we be in cahoots with them? I don't even know these two sisters-in-law, so how could I listen to them and come here to identify this girl as an evil spirit? You are simply ungrateful!"
The fake Taoist priest spoke with great emotion, as if he had suffered great insult here.
People of this era are already very fearful of ghosts and gods, so after hearing this, the villagers are a little worried.
"Village chief, I don't think this master is lying. What's more, he doesn't take a penny. Why don't you just let him go and pretend that this incident never happened?"
"No, no, since this master doesn't charge a penny, it proves that he is not lying, and Su Man has changed a lot during this period of time. Otherwise, let the master walk around Su Man's house to see if there are other dirty things."
The villagers were talking at once, and the master seemed to feel that he was capable again. He immediately forgot the lesson Su Man had just given him, and straightened his back on the spot, saying proudly,
"It's too late for you to beg me now. I was originally trying to do good deeds, but you were so disrespectful to me. I won't help you. If anything happens in your village in the future, don't regret it!"
Fat Lady and Widow Wang breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Man couldn't stand it when she heard this, so she kicked the fake Taoist priest on the knee.
The fake Taoist priest immediately knelt on his knees and screamed out in pain.
"Shut up!" Su Man said impatiently, "If you keep talking so much nonsense, I will immediately let you know the consequences of your coming here. If you don't want to be sent away, you'd better explain things to me now!"
The fake Taoist priest was in so much pain in his knees that he couldn't speak, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.
Su Man looked at the village chief with sharp eyes.
"Uncle He, you are the village chief, I will listen to you now. I must prove myself now, I will make this Taoist priest tell everything he did. I can also make a bet with Fatty and Widow Wang. If the fake Taoist priest is lying, then I will admit whatever they say or do to me. But if the fake Taoist priest is a liar, like I just did, they must give me an explanation. I am not someone who can be bullied.
Of course, you don't have to make up your mind. I will ask the county magistrate for help. I will beat the drum to appeal for justice. I don't believe there is no justice in this world! At worst, we can die together!"
That's right, she deliberately used the current master to pressure the village chief and the villagers, because she knew that what these people feared most was seeing the officials.
Sure enough, everyone present was frightened when they heard him say that he was going to the newspaper office, including the fake Taoist priest who was forced to kneel on the ground.
Su Man put one foot on the fake Taoist's back, making it impossible for him to get up.
At this time, Old Man Fan also put down what he was holding, came over and pulled the two children aside.
He could see that the girl was confident, so there was nothing to worry about. On the contrary, the two children staying here would make the girl worry about him. He noticed the look in the girl's eyes just now, and she kept glancing at the two children from time to time.
The two children were naturally unwilling, but after Old Man Fan whispered something in their ears, the two of them no longer refused. Instead, they stood aside obediently, looking at Su Man nervously and worriedly.
Just as Old Man Fan said, only after seeing the two children walk to the side did she feel completely relieved, and then she was ready to slap them in the face.
Now that it has come to the point of seeing the official, the village chief has no reason to refuse.
Aunt Mei: "Fatty, Sister Wang, if you two really haven't done anything wrong, why don't you dare to make a bet? If you don't dare to bet, are you feeling guilty? If you really haven't done anything wrong, why can't you make a bet like Xiao Su and let us know who is real and who is fake?"
She hit the nail on the head.
The villagers reacted immediately and said that since they were not afraid, they should just make the bet.
Fat Lady and Widow Wang were forced into a difficult situation by the villagers, and finally had no choice but to agree to the bet, but they both kept winking at the fake Taoist priest.
Su Man took in all these emotions, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She then squatted down and looked at the fake Taoist priest. She placed her hand on the fake Taoist priest's shoulder and then tightened it slightly.
The fake Taoist's face immediately turned painful.
Su Man enjoyed the expression on his face very much.
"As for me, I'm not a person who makes trouble for no reason. If you tell me the truth, I won't pursue the trouble with you, because you are not the culprit. I think at most you are just doing the job for money, right?
But if you don't tell the truth, then I can't guarantee what the consequences will be. Like I said just now, at worst you can go to the authorities. I haven't done anything wrong anyway, but you have to think carefully about it. "
Widow Wang's heart was pounding. "You are threatening him! How can you threaten him?"
The fat lady was also so nervous that she kept swallowing her saliva.
"If you are like this, who knows if you are forcing him? This doesn't count!"
The fake Taoist priest was already crying out in pain at this time. Su Man tightened her grip again, and the fake Taoist priest felt as if his shoulder blade was broken in an instant. Su Man's words about going out to see the light made his heart break.
"Ahh!! Let go first, and I'll tell you everything. I'll just tell you!"
Fatty and Widow Wang turned pale and shouted almost in unison.
"Don't say it! You can't say it!"
Su Man looked at the two of them, "Why can't I tell you? Why are you not allowed to tell you? If you can't tell me, if you're not allowed to tell me, how can I know what will happen next? How can the villagers know who is right and who is wrong?"
Having seen all this, what else is there for the village chief to not understand? This was actually something that these two people did.
His expression was also very ugly, and he was very supportive of Su Man.
"That's right, let him speak. If this fake Taoist priest doesn't explain clearly, I will arrest him and bring him before the authorities."
"I'll prepare the ox cart and be ready to take him to see the official at any time." Wang Dafu, who was surrounded by the crowd, also said something.
The fat lady couldn't help but curse and throw a tantrum.
But Su Man said something to her at this time.
"Fatty, your husband came back two days ago, right? And was he home all night?"
The fat lady was stunned for a moment, "You...what do you mean?"
Su Man smiled slightly, then looked at Widow Wang again.
"Sister Wang, who was that man in your house two nights ago?"
