They've all separated, so what does it matter to me if they get poorer and poorer?

Chapter 193 This is slander
Xu Zhichun, both angry and anxious, pointed at Granny Su: "Your mistress, the young lady from the Qin family, wanted to buy my ice jelly recipe, but I refused to sell it. She then wanted more tomatoes, but I only have so many in my field, and I can't conjure up more. She thinks I'm deliberately going against her and holds a grudge against me, right? So, Granny Su, you believe everything you hear, and now you've finally found an opportunity to deliberately come to my door to take revenge?"

Even if Master Qin was unhappy afterward and felt that he had embarrassed his sister, Xu Zhichun would not regret doing so.

Liang Mingxuan looked at his sister-in-law in shock, a pang of sorrow gripping his heart. How much suffering had she endured behind his back? The Qin family was envious; other families were likely just as jealous. How much effort and scheming had his sister-in-law put into escaping danger time and time again?
Granny Su was furious.

Because of Liang Mingxuan, Young Master Qin's relationship with the two young masters of his master has become estranged.

Take today's events for example. The young master said he saw Liang Mingxuan push Young Master Qin into the water out of jealousy, but Young Master Qin refused to believe his own cousin and insisted that it wasn't Liang Mingxuan, that it definitely wasn't Liang Mingxuan—listen to that, what kind of talk is that?

No wonder my wife is so angry.

His wife was furious and sent him with men to teach them a lesson, but this little bitch turned the tables on him.

“Madam Xu is too self-important. What are your meager little recipes for making a living? Our mistress wouldn’t even look at them. What does it matter if she has them or not? Even if she doesn’t, it won’t affect our mistress’s wealth at all. Let’s keep this separate. Liang Mingxuan almost drowned Young Master Qin. He’s our mistress’s own nephew. He’s the only son in the Qin family. Madam and Master Qin are kind and easy to talk to. They said that he’s alright now, so there’s no need to worry about anything else. But our mistress can’t tolerate any nonsense.”

Xu Zhichun: "Mingxuan didn't do it, so you can't make up stories. Since that's the case, fine. I'll take Mingxuan with me now. I'll trouble you and a few uncles and aunts from our village to come with us. Granny Su, we'll go with you to the Qin family to discuss this."

Granny Su sneered, "You wish! Do you think you can just go to the Qin family whenever you want?"

More and more villagers gathered to watch, and they began to discuss the matter.

"No wonder I heard someone fell into the water; it turns out it was a young master from the city who came to visit."

“The young masters in the city are curious about everything and are not used to the roads here. If they get too close to the water, it’s no wonder they fall in.”

"Fortunately, the person was rescued and is alright."

"Yes, yes, they're too servant-like."

"No wonder, they all left after only a short while."

"But I just heard this old woman say that the little prodigy pushed the person down?"

"Nonsense, a child prodigy couldn't possibly do such a thing."

"I don't think so either. What would they want from that?"

"Yeah."

"If that really happens, even if the parents have the best temper, they'll still demand an explanation, right? Would they really let a relative's servant handle it? Wouldn't that be incredibly shameful?"

"What is this old woman trying to do?"

"I don't know, but I just feel like she's trying to bully people."

"I saw it too."

While keeping an eye on Granny Su, Xu Zhichun listened intently. Most of the voices either favored her family or were doubtful, which made Xu Zhichun secretly relieved.

"Granny Su, don't misunderstand. We don't have to enter the Qin family's gate. We can just wait for Master Qin and Madam Qin outside. We can talk things out face to face and avoid this ambiguity. If a bucket of dirty water is thrown at us, how are we supposed to clean it up?" Several villagers who accompanied Xu Zhichun to the yamen last time to catch the thief were so envied by the others in the village when they came back.

Not only did they broaden their horizons and gain new knowledge, but they also ate a big bowl of steaming hot meat sauce noodles, brought home several large meat buns, and each received several dozen coins. And now another opportunity has come their way.

Some clever people have already thought of this.

Now or never.

“Zhichun is right, we should go to the city to make things clear. Zhichun, your aunt will go with you!”

“Zhichun, Zhichun, Third Aunt is still in good health, Third Aunt can go too.”

“This kind of thing can’t be done without a man to back it up. Don’t worry, Zhichun, with your uncles here, no one can talk nonsense.”

"Me too, count me in."

"Me too! Me too!"

"me!"

Granny Su shuddered instinctively, feeling a little panicked.

Why are these people suddenly all so excited and their eyes are shining? She felt a little uneasy.

Granny Su was both panicked and bewildered: How could this be? Can someone be so popular? It's terrifying!
Granny Su couldn't help but let her imagination run wild: No wonder Madam Xu is so popular; no wonder her brother-in-law can charm Young Master Qin so easily, and no wonder the two young masters are no match for Liang Mingxuan!
Granny Su is now in a difficult situation.

Following her and her master's plan, she led her people to their door with an imposing manner and a strong sense of righteousness, and berated Xu Zhichun and his sister-in-law, giving them no chance to argue. She then smashed up their house to vent her anger before leaving triumphantly.

In Su Mama's view, this was to vent her young master's anger and also to curry favor with Madam Qin and Master Qin, thus seeking justice for Young Master Qin.

Qin Xiuhe, however, thought a step further. She believed that if Granny Su, posing as a member of the Qin family, caused a scene, Liang Mingxuan and Xu Zhichun would harbor resentment. Regardless of whether Liang Mingxuan had actually pushed Qin Ning'an into the water, his reputation was tarnished, and clearing it up wouldn't be easy. Furthermore, the relationship between Liang Mingxuan and Qin Ning'an would undoubtedly break down.

She'll then try to persuade her older brother and sister-in-law: What if Liang Mingxuan harbors resentment because of this? Does Ning An think she can outsmart him? Don't let him sell you out at the county school and then help him count the money!
I'm not worried, my older brother and sister-in-law aren't concerned.

They were deeply worried and concerned about Qin Ning'an, so they had no choice but to expel him from the county school. Wouldn't this give her two sons an opportunity to take advantage of the situation?
Before Su Mama arrived, Qin Xiuhe had given her special instructions: make a big scene, make sure to thoroughly smear those uncle and sister-in-law, don't hold back on smashing and looting, and it would be best to give them a few slaps. As long as no one is seriously injured or killed, it's fine.

Su Mama was not the dowry nanny that Qin Xiuhe brought with her from her maiden home. When she got married, she did bring a dowry nanny, but it was said that the nanny was dishonest and she was dismissed. This Su Mama was promoted from among the servants of the Mo family.

Therefore, Granny Su does not recognize the Qin family; she only recognizes Madam Qin Xiuhe and the Mo family.

That country bumpkin Liang Mingxuan dared to sow discord among the young masters' blood relatives and cousins, so of course she was filled with righteous indignation and disgust.

With the lady giving her further instructions, Granny Su became even more motivated.

What I thought would be a simple matter turned out like this!
"What are you trying to do? No wonder they say that bad people come from poor and remote places. I bet none of you have good intentions!"
