Siheyuan: I just want to live

Chapter 258 Jia Zhang's Slander

Just when Jia Zhang was feeling complacent and thought that Chen Feng would definitely not escape her slander, the third aunt who had been watching coldly from the side suddenly frowned and interrupted.

"Mr. Jia, you are wrong! I heard it from my wife myself."

"Chen Feng obviously has a proper job! He works as a buyer at a scrap recycling station! How can you say that Chen Feng is supported by his wife?"

Jia Zhang never expected that someone would jump out and sing a different tune from her at this time. Her face immediately darkened and she glared at the third aunt fiercely, feeling secretly angry in her heart.

If it weren't for the fact that Yan Fugui was the third uncle in the yard, she would have lost her temper on the spot.

But at this moment, Jia Zhang still suppressed the anger in her heart, decided to endure it for the time being, and silently keep this account in her heart.

She secretly planned that when conflicts came up between her family and Yan Fugui's family in the future, she would settle all the old and new grudges together and make sure they were in good shape!

But even so, Jia Zhang did not give the third aunt a good look, and spoke to her with a dark face.

"What the hell! Don't believe Chen Feng's lies! Are you still working as a buyer at a scrapyard? A scrapyard is such a small place, does it need a buyer?"

"There's no way Chen Feng can be a buyer! I say this for a reason!"

When several aunts heard what Jia Zhang said, they all stared at her for a while. Even the third aunt frowned and looked at Jia Zhang.

When Jia Zhang saw that everyone was looking at her, she was very happy. She really enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention.

So Jia Zhang deliberately lowered her voice, with a mysterious look on her face, and spoke in a serious manner.

"Do you know? The third son of the Wang family in the next yard is also a buyer! And he is a buyer for the steel mill!"

"Do you know what the difference is between him and Chen Feng in our courtyard?"

After hearing what Jia Zhang said, everyone else in the courtyard looked at a loss.

They didn't really pay attention to these things on a daily basis, so naturally they didn't know what the difference was between Chen Feng and the third son of the Wang family.

Could it be that they were different in height? Or were they different in appearance and weight? If it was just that, then Jia Zhang would not have mentioned it specifically.

After all, they are not twin brothers, so they definitely look different. Even if they are twins, there may be differences between them. It is really normal!

At this moment, a straightforward woman finally couldn't hold back her curiosity and took the lead in asking Jia Zhang.

"Mr. Jia! Don't keep us in suspense. Tell us what the difference is between them! We are all waiting with all our ears!"

Hearing someone urging her constantly, Jia Zhang slowly opened her mouth and spoke.

"Since you are so eager to know the reason, then fine, I will tell you! I believe that as long as I tell you, you will understand it immediately!"

At this time, when the other aunts and women in the yard heard that Jia Zhang was about to start speaking, they all pricked up their ears and began to listen attentively.

They even put aside the housework they were busy with and waited quietly for what Jia Zhang would say next.

When Jia Zhang saw everyone like this, she couldn't help but feel secretly proud. She cleared her throat and continued.

"Look at this! Ever since the third son of the Wang family became a buyer, he has been so busy that he is dizzy and overwhelmed all day long."

"He goes out early every day and comes home very late! Sometimes he just stays at his fellow villagers' house and never comes back. But look at that Chen Feng..."

When everyone heard this, Chen Feng’s usual image quickly emerged in their minds. After thinking about it carefully, wasn’t it just as Jia Zhang said!

This Chen Feng is indeed very leisurely and comfortable all day long, even more leisurely than those housewives who do housework all day long.

Sometimes, Chen Feng would sleep until almost noon before getting up. This doesn't look like a person who has a job!

And when they compared Chen Feng with the third son of the Wang family mentioned by Jia Zhang, this feeling became even stronger, and Chen Feng's leisure time was further highlighted.

Then, Jia Zhang opened and closed her mouth, and continued to talk nonstop: "The most crucial point here is that it has to be since the third son of the Wang family became a buyer."

"The Wang family's life is just like riding on a rocket. Yes, it's a rocket! It's soaring up!"

As she spoke, she did not forget to gesture upward with her hands, as if this would allow others to more intuitively feel the rapid improvement in the Wang family's living standards.

Then, Jia Zhang came up to the crowd and said in a low voice, mysteriously: "Let me tell you something! I saw with my own eyes the third son of the Wang family sneaking something into the house!"

After saying this, a smug expression appeared on her face, as if she had discovered something amazing!

However, Jia Zhang suddenly raised her voice and asked loudly, "But look at Chen Feng again. Has anyone seen him bring anything home? Humph!"

She put her hands on her hips, her eyes full of contempt.

After a pause, Jia Zhang spoke again, with a bit of regret in her tone: "So that's what I mean! Chen Feng doesn't have a proper job at all now. He is idle all day long and relies entirely on his wife to support him! Tsk tsk tsk tsk..."

At this point, she couldn't help but shake her head and sigh.

Finally, Jia Zhang sighed with deep emotion: "Alas! Poor Jin Ling, such a good girl, why did she marry a lazy guy like Chen Feng!"

After saying this, she pretended to wipe away two non-existent tears, as if she felt deeply sympathetic towards Jin Ling's experience.

After hearing what Jia Zhang said, everyone nodded in agreement, thinking that what she said made sense.

For a moment, the scene was noisy and people started talking to each other.

There were even some people who openly expressed their deep regret and feeling that it was not worth it for Jin Ling to marry Chen Feng.

In fact, how could they possibly know? Chen Feng was completely different from those ordinary buyers. He did not need to travel around the countryside like others did every day.

You know, Chen Feng owns a magical and unique space, in which he grows a lot of crops and raises a lot of animals.

You can complete the task by simply taking out a portion of this mysterious space and sending it to a recycling station every month.

Since Chen Feng's space already provided all the necessary items, he naturally did not have to follow the example of the third son of the Wang family and take some of the purchased materials home to subsidize daily household expenses.

Because of this, in Jia Zhang's eyes, Chen Feng was simply a man who relied on his wife for support and was idle and careless all day long!

She was deeply envious of Chen Feng's lifestyle and thought that this was the life she should live, not like now.

At this moment, the third aunt sat quietly on one side, listening silently to Jia Zhang's words.

As time went by, her already furrowed brows became even deeper, as if they could pinch a fly to death.

In fact, even she herself had to admit deep down in her heart that there was some truth in what Jia Zhang said.

However, she recalled that the old man at home had once told her with confidence that Chen Feng's job was a buyer.

Could it be that all this was a lie carefully woven by Chen Feng, which successfully deceived his old man?

But his old man was a well-known abacus master, so how could Chen Feng deceive him in this matter?

Thinking of this, an indescribable doubt arose in the third aunt's heart.

At this moment, Jia Zhang's ears were filled with the discussions of others, and she felt more and more complacent in her heart.

She thought to herself: Look, this is the evil result that those who go against her deserve, humph! This time, no matter what, I must make that hateful Chen Feng the target of public criticism and the object of scorn by everyone!

At this moment, Auntie suddenly interrupted and shouted to those who were still discussing enthusiastically: "Hey! Hey, everyone, let's not chat here today!"

Then she added, "The kids will be out of school soon, so I have to hurry home to make dinner!"

"These kids have been in school all day, they must be starving! I have to go back and cook, otherwise they will be starving when they come back and find that the meal is not ready!"

On the surface, the third aunt claimed that she was in a hurry to go home to prepare meals for the children, but in fact she was planning to go back and ask her old man to confirm whether Chen Feng was really as bad as Jia Zhang said.

So, as soon as the third aunt said this, she didn't give anyone else any chance to respond. She picked up the vegetables she had picked without hesitation, picked up the small stool, and hurried towards her home in the front yard.

After the three aunts left, the group of women who were still talking about Chen Feng and Jin Ling also looked up at the sky and found that it was indeed getting late.

It’s time to cook, otherwise when the head of the household comes home from get off work and sees that you haven’t prepared dinner, you and he will get angry again.

So this group of aunts started to pack up and go home to cook.

When Jia Zhang saw that everyone had left, she also took her insoles and carried her stool and walked towards her home.

Of course, she definitely didn't want to go back and cook for herself. The Jia family always waited for Qin Huairu to come home from get off work, and Qin Huairu cooked for herself!
