Although Lin Youwen is a scholar, he has good morals since childhood, and he is not lazy and ignorant. Isn't he squatting by the river, processing those wild game?
Some aunties from the same village were washing clothes not far upstream. When country women were working, their hands were busy and their mouths were usually busy too.
Chen, the third daughter-in-law of the fifth grandmother, is a well-known gossip in the village. She knows everything about the gossips of other people.
He has high cheekbones and a thin face, which makes him look plain to begin with. Coupled with his signature expression of gossiping and flirting, he looks like a monkey with a pointed chin.
"Hey, let me tell you. Do you know?"
He pointed stealthily in Lin Youwen's direction and chuckled a few times in a low voice.
"Something funny is happening again in Lin Lao Ba's house. Do you know about this?"
Lin Yuanshan is the eighth oldest in the clan.
"What's so funny? Third Aunt, what did you hear? Tell us quickly."
Gossips usually appear in groups. Anyone who can hang out with Chen must not be a decent and virtuous person.
Wang, the granddaughter-in-law of the old sixth master, and Chen were a pair of the crouching dragon and phoenix chicks in Linjia Village. Whenever there was any good or bad news in the village, it was definitely through the mouths of these two.
"Hehehe, didn't the clan leader ask all the men in our clan to go to Zhoujia Town yesterday? We gave Youan's uncle a good beating."
"We all know this, why are you nagging about it?"
Fifth sister-in-law Huang had always been at odds with Chen, and she started to scold her. Then she snorted in indignation.
"Humph, I also heard from my head that most of the family property left by Old Sixteen was swept away by that vicious woman Zhou Yuhe.
I heard that when the girl from Old Sixteen was about to be sold, it was Zhou Yuhe herself who agreed.
What kind of woman is this?
How can you be so heartless?
She used to look so quiet, gentle and weak, who could have thought that she would change so immediately after the man she met died?
It is true that it is difficult to draw the bones of a tiger even if you can only draw its skin; you can know a person’s face but not his heart!”
Everyone nodded in agreement with this statement.
"Isn't it? How long has it been since our master died? How come that woman can marry herself off the next moment? Could it be that she did something while the Sixteenth Master was still alive?"
"Who knows? Anyway, she is not a good person. The head of the family died, her parents-in-law are gone, and her children are still so young, and she just got married without any hesitation. Ha, it can be seen that she can't live without a man for a day!"
"Come on, aren't these all lice on a bald man's head? I think his seventh aunt is probably right. I'm afraid Zhou was not honest when she was pregnant!
No wonder she was throwing a tantrum and insisted on going back to her parents' home. If it were a normal woman like us, whose husband died and left behind a lot of property, and she has a son to support her, would she have nothing to do and still go back to her parents' home?"
"That's right! She really can't live without a man for even a day. I wonder what happiness she can enjoy in the future."
"What kind of happiness is she enjoying? Sister-in-law Qi, don't you know what's going on? It must be the happiness she enjoys in bed, otherwise why would she run away in such a hurry?"
Some of the older ones cursed without restraint, which made the young wives nearby blush.
"What are you talking about? Can you finish it?"
Chen clapped her hands vigorously a few times. The gossipy women who had just watched you and me talking all looked over.
Aunt Laojiu praised her with a smile.
"Okay, okay, let's all be quiet and listen to what the third sister's family has to say. Let's see what she can say!"
"Huh, I actually have some inside information."
Chen curled her lips and held her head high.
"You all know that the clan leader's wife is my aunt. When I went to see her yesterday, I overheard it.
Didn't Youan find a stepmother for himself? I heard that she is pretty and has great kung fu skills. She seems to be the daughter of a martial arts master. In short, she is very good at martial arts. "
"We all know this. The head of the family told us everything when he came back yesterday."
"Yes, yes, yes. When my boss came back, he was so excited that he was spitting all over the place. If you didn't know, you would have thought he had killed a blind bear!"
“That’s right, my boss is the same.
When he talked about it, his eyes lit up, and I even suspected that he was targeting that blind bear.
I heard that the girl, no, the young wife went hunting in the mountains alone yesterday, and she actually ran into a blind bear and a wild boar. If it were an ordinary person, she would have died there.
He was able to drag these two big prey down the mountain, which shows that he is really a skilled person! "
"Haha, this is something you all know, so I'll tell you something you don't know."
She secretly glanced in Lin Youwen's direction, and then, in a shrill voice, told everyone the so-called truth.
"That Chu family, right? On the surface, they said that she was the arranged wife for the Sixteenth Prince, but in reality,...tsk tsk tsk tsk."
She smacked her tongue a few times.
"We all know what kind of perverted character Old Eight is. I don't think Zhou Yuhe's stunt was all lies.
As the old saying goes, there is no smoke without fire. If those things really didn't happen, would Lao Ba still have admitted the loss?
Chu's so-called sister-in-law was most likely prepared for him. This guy told him to enjoy the blessing, but it was Liu's silly old woman who believed those nonsense.
If the marriage was arranged when Fourth Uncle was still alive, how could our clan leader not have heard of it? I heard from my aunt yesterday that the clan leader had just learned about this matter.
Isn't everything under Lin Laoba's tongue? Whatever he says, it doesn't matter. The Fourth Uncle and the Sixteenth Uncle are gone. Even if he brings up this name, no one can say anything. "
This rumor was made up by her and it seems to be true.
These country women were all skeptical about what they heard.
"No way? Third sister-in-law, don't talk nonsense. Be careful that Eighth sister-in-law will come to pick a fight with you."
"I don't believe it either! When the Sixteenth Brother was alive, he would have taken good care of his brother's family. How could the Eighth Brother do such a thing as to cuckold his own brother? Impossible."
There are those who have clear minds, and there are those who believe everything they hear.
"What's the possibility? There's an old saying that when a person dies, it's like a light goes out. Isn't it just using the excuse of being a brother?
It's also because my eighth brother's wife has been too controlling over the years, and has frightened my eighth brother, a good man, into doing all kinds of crooked things."
Someone immediately responded to this nonsense.
"Haha, that's right, among all the daughters-in-law in our Lin family, who can compare to your virtuousness, Sixth Sister-in-law?
When Sixth Brother does something foolish outside, you always follow him and cover up for him. I suspect that one day he will bring home a child born out of wedlock, and you will treat him as your own child, right? "
