Chun Niang's words left the old lady speechless.

The people next to me couldn't stand it anymore and asked Yu's mother: "Aren't you also a woman? Why don't you stay at home all day long and never leave the house?

We are all ordinary people, not wives or young ladies from wealthy families. We can put out our hands with clothes, open our mouths with food, and have someone to take care of everything.Why, if women don’t go out to work, do they have to sit at home and wait to starve to death? "

After hearing this, everyone echoed in agreement.

In Daning, husband and wife teams open shops, and widows often work as helpers in other people's homes. Life is not easy. No matter what, the most important thing is to survive. Who cares about the old rule that women cannot show themselves in public?

Shopkeeper Yu's mother was unable to say a word when she was asked. Seeing that the situation was not in her favour, the old lady began to act arrogant again. She sat down on the ground, pointed at Chun Niang and cried, "Oh, my God. Now, our family was kind enough to adopt you, but you just left as soon as you said you wanted to! You are simply an ungrateful white-eyed wolf.

Why do you think that when your wings become stiff, you only care about living a good life for yourself, and don’t care about us orphans and widowed mothers, right?

It's pitiful that I was so frugal and frugal that I managed to raise two children, but in the end I ended up living on the streets without even a bite to eat. How could I be so pitiful! "

Mrs. Yu had gray hair and a haggard face. She wiped away tears as she spoke. Seeing her miserable appearance, several onlookers for unknown reasons couldn't help but think about whether they would end up like this when they grow old.

I couldn't help but feel that it was indeed too much for Chun Niang to be so unkind.

At this time, a woman who was helping in the shop came out, stood next to Chun Niang, and yelled at Mrs. Yu:

"Bah! Your son is already so old, but you still have the nerve to say that he is an orphan and a widower!"

This was a widow who helped in Chun Niang's shop. After her husband died, she took her two children with her and finally escaped to the capital. She had no relatives, so she was a real orphan and widowed mother.

She didn't have anything to rely on, but she still had to hold on and not fall down. Only she knew the sadness of this.

Just now I saw this old woman standing on the highest point of morality, trying to confuse right and wrong and smear Chun Niang. She couldn't help it and ran out to say something on behalf of her boss.

"This mother and son took advantage of the fact that my boss's wife was an orphan. They beat and scolded her since she was a child. They didn't treat her as a human being, let alone a family member.

The so-called nurturing grace in your mouth is also the kindness of that kind-hearted old lady. Our landlady personally took care of the old lady when she was alive. Tell me yourself, have you ever fed your mother-in-law? "

Chun Niang has never been shy about her past, and she often talks about her past experiences to encourage the women in the shop to look forward, so she knows Chun Niang's affairs very well.

"I...why didn't I..."

The old lady was stubborn and wanted to say that she had taken care of her mother-in-law, but she was also an extremely superstitious person. She was afraid that if she said something unkind, her mother-in-law's ghost would come to her at night, so she hesitated and couldn't finish her sentence. Come on.

"Look, you didn't take care of your mother-in-law when you were young. How dare you ask a woman who has divorced your family to take care of you now? What is this called? This is called a cycle of cause and effect, and evil will be rewarded!"

After hearing what she said, Shen Ruoyan shouted happily and secretly wrote down her name, thinking about giving her more interest later.

Shopkeeper Yu saw that neither soft nor hard could make any sense, so he simply walked up to Chun Niang, grabbed Chun Niang's wrist while she wasn't paying attention, and tried to drag her away with brute force.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Chun Niang resisted desperately, but shopkeeper Yu was tall, fat, and very strong. No matter how hard Chun Niang struggled, she could not escape his control.

Seeing that something was wrong, Shen Ruoyan shouted loudly in the crowd: "Oh, no, someone is robbing a woman!"

The onlookers were so angry that they all rushed forward. A tall figure pinched Shopkeeper Yu's wrist. Shopkeeper Yu let out a cry of pain and quickly let go of Chun Niang's hand.

"What are you doing!" Shopkeeper Yu shook off his pinched hand and asked angrily, "This is a household matter between me and my wife. Why are you meddling in it?"

The man glanced sideways at him and said, "I just heard from this lady that she has divorced you, so don't call me a madam. You rob women on the street. Come on, follow me to the government office!"

When Shopkeeper Yu heard that he was going to the Yamen, he was immediately frightened and dragged his mother away in despair.

The man waved his sleeves and was about to retreat when he was stopped by a voice behind him:

"Uncle! Wait a minute!"

Shen Ruoyan walked up to the man, took a closer look, her eyebrows were filled with joy, and she asked with a smile: "Uncle, are you drunk..."

She just recognized that the man who rescued Chun Niang was the uncle who punted her boat every night in Zuiyue Tower. Shen Ruoyan did not expect to see him on the street, so she stopped him immediately, but then Thinking that she was dressed as a daughter, she naturally couldn't mention her visit to Zuiyue Tower, so she stopped mid-sentence.

This "uncle" was actually breaking into a cold sweat at this moment.

This person is Wei Xu.

The young master asked him to protect Miss Shen, so from the moment Shen Ruoyan took Qin'er out, he quietly followed them. Just now he saw the fat pig making trouble unreasonably and finally making a move, so he couldn't help but Showed up and helped them.

Wei Xu originally thought that there would be no problem since there were so many people and they didn't know him, but he didn't expect that Miss Shen had such good eyesight that she could recognize him at a glance.

Wei Xu couldn't help but feel very distressed. He didn't know how to explain to his young master after he returned.

Today, the uncle has no beard and looks much younger. Shen Ruoyan said to Wei Xu with a smile: "Uncle, you are such a good man, so warm-hearted!"

Wei Xu quickly waved his hands, wanting to say that this was just a trivial matter, but as soon as he raised his hands, he felt a chill under his armpits, and cold wind flowed in along his arms.

When he looked down, he saw that there was a big hole in his clothes. Maybe he moved too much when he was trying to stop Shopkeeper Yu and accidentally tore the clothes.

Wei Xu put down his hand in embarrassment, his face stiff.

Shen Ruoyan couldn't hold it back for a moment and burst into laughter. When she smiled, Qin'er and Chun Niang and others around her also started laughing.

What does it feel like to be surrounded by a group of women laughing?

Wei Xu will definitely tell you that he can’t wait to dig a hole in the ground and get in!

The man's face turned red, and he regretted that he didn't look at the almanac when he went out today. Why did he encounter such an embarrassing thing? If word got out, where would the honor of his dignified secret guard go?
