Quick Wear: Cousin, Come to the Bowl Quickly
Chapter 18: The Scholar Cousin in the Farming Story (8)
When the group arrived outside Lin Xiaomiao's yard, they heard the greasy voice of Laibazi coming from the yard, "Everyone, come and judge! She seduced me first and took my five taels of silver as a betrothal gift. That's why I came to propose marriage to her. Who knew she would turn against me now?"
The crowd of onlookers surrounded the yard in three layers, and seeing that they could not squeeze in, Lin Jun had an idea and whispered a few words into Du Xingzhi's ear. Du Xingzhi was startled at first, then looked at the crowded crowd and nodded helplessly.
Lin Jun smiled slyly, and suddenly put his hands on his hips and shouted with full energy, "Get out of the way! The Juren Master is here to administer justice!"
When the people who were just enjoying themselves turned their heads, they saw that it was indeed Du Xingzhi. They all smiled flatteringly and made way for them. Du Xingzhi straightened his expression and walked into the yard with a serious face.
Lin Jun's words just now made Du Xingzhi angry. At this moment, he had no choice but to act like a judge. With a solemn face, he looked at the three angry Lin Xiaomiao siblings and asked, "What happened?"
Lin Xiaohe spoke before her sister did, "Brother Du, this scabby toad wants to eat swan flesh and actually wants to marry my sister. My sister disagrees, but he just opens his mouth and slanders my sister's innocence with empty words."
After saying this, Lin Xiaohe glared at Baldy, thinking about how her sister's innocence was almost ruined by him last time. It would have been fine if they didn't go looking for trouble with him, but this bastard actually dared to come to their house. Looking at his ugly scarred face, Lin Xiaohe wanted to go up and tear his mouth apart.
The bald man, who had been looking nervous since Du Xingzhi and his party entered the yard, gave Lin Xiaohe a fierce look when he heard this, and then put on a fake smile at Du Xingzhi, "Master Juren, what brings you here? But this is a family affair between Xiao Miao and me, so you don't need to interfere."
Du Xingzhi's expression did not change. He just glanced at him calmly, and said in an unclear tone, "Oh? Family matters? You and Lin Xiaomiao are not related, so what family matters are you talking about?"
"You don't know, but Lin Xiaomiao accepted five taels of silver as a betrothal gift from me, and now she's already my wife-to-be." The bald man chuckled, and a hint of lewd light flashed across his eyes.
"Bah! Shameless thing, with your horrible looks, my sister would never fall in love with you even if she was blind, let alone take your money." Lin Xiaohe spoke in a fierce tone and scolded the bald man without any politeness.
After being scolded by Lin Xiaohe several times, Laibazi secretly hated him. He gritted his teeth, pretended to be sad, and looked at Lin Xiaomiao, "Xiao Miao, are you just going to watch your sister bully me? It was you who said that you were helpless with your two younger siblings and your family was poor, and you wanted to find someone to rely on. I felt sorry for you, so I emptied my own pocket to give you five taels of silver as a betrothal gift..."
Lin Xiaomiao was so angry at his nonsense that she almost died. Ever since she traveled through time, she had earned more than a hundred times the five taels of silver by relying on the modern advanced agricultural knowledge and farming system. However, she always knew that wealth should not be shown to others, so she only secretly improved her family's meals on weekdays, and pretended to be penniless to outsiders.
But at this time, she couldn't tell the fact that she was actually quite wealthy. Otherwise, even if she got rid of Lai Ba Zi, there would still be Lin Daniu's family who were eyeing her covetously. This family was like sticky candy, coming out to disgust her from time to time. If they knew that she was rich, they would definitely think of some vicious means to deal with her, so she could only endure the disgust and deal with Lai Ba Zi.
"You just open your mouth and say that I took your silver. Do you have any proof? Everyone knows that you, the bald man, are idle all day long and have no food to eat. Let alone five taels of silver, I'm afraid you can't even take out five copper coins." Lin Xiaomiao's words were well-reasoned. After hearing them, everyone nodded repeatedly and looked down on the bald man.
If it were someone else, they would have lost their composure after seeing this, but who is the shameless person of Laibazi? He rolled his eyes and lied, "That was the money my father left for me to marry a wife before he died. All these years, even if I had a hard time, I would not dare to spend the money. Now you have tricked me into it. Dad, I am an unfilial son. I am sorry for you!"
He cried and wailed, looking extremely sad. There were some soft-hearted people in the crowd who were deceived by him and whispered to each other, "Badger's father has always spoiled his children. Maybe he really left something for him."
"Just save the money. His father is worse than a bald man. He can't lift anything with his shoulders or hands. If he could really earn five taels of silver, he wouldn't die of illness in the end." The person next to him rolled his eyes, obviously not believing it.
"Sister, don't waste your time talking to him. Just beat this kind of scabby boy out." The little boy Lin Xiaodong was about to hit the scabby boy with a big broom.
Lin Xiaomiao also knew that it was impossible to reason with such a scoundrel, so when she saw her brother's actions, she did not stop him. Instead, she looked around, pulled out a big stick from the firewood pile, and prepared to work with her brother and sister to drive the man out.
When the bald man saw the three people approaching, he showed no fear but a smile of success. He suddenly took out a handkerchief from his arms, raised his hand and waved it in the air twice, "Everyone, look, this is the evidence, she embroidered it for me by herself, saying it is a token of our love."
After saying that, he put it under his nose and took two deep breaths, pretending to be intoxicated, "There's still her scent on it, I can't bear to wash it off."
His movements were deliberate and vulgar, and for a moment, everyone in the yard focused their attention on the handkerchief in his hand. Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Laibazi smiled maliciously. This was the handkerchief he had taken out of Lin Xiaomiao's arms when he bullied her that day. It was embroidered with Lin Xiaomiao's name, so he was not afraid that she would deny it.
He thought to himself that as long as he could ruin Lin Xiaomiao's reputation, she would have no choice but to marry him. So when he saw everyone's eager eyes, he smiled and handed the handkerchief to the onlookers, "If you don't believe me, come and take a look. Her name is on it."
Everyone stretched their necks, wanting to see if the handkerchief was really as Laibazi said, but because Lin Xiaomiao was present, no one went to take it.
Seeing this, Laibazi glanced at the crowd and suddenly his eyes lit up. He held the handkerchief in front of a dark and fat woman and said, "Xiao Miao's aunt, you must recognize your own niece's handkerchief, right? Can you help us check if this handkerchief belongs to Xiao Miao?"
