Shen Li sat up in his bed with a grunt, he covered his belly with his hands before turning over and getting down from the bed. He looked at the sky which was glittering with specks of gold that seemed to be burning ambers of flames and could not help but question in his head —— ' Who was the idiot outside their door?' n0veluSb.c0M
After all, only a fool would knock at someone's else door when the sun was this high in the sky. They were not even able to get out of the house without swaying because of heat.
So how come someone had the energy to yell at the top of their lungs? More importantly, why were they yelling?
Shen Li walked out of her room and then saw Fang Chi who was also coming out of his room with a crying little Bo. The poor baby just went to sleep but he was awakened rudely by the scream and curses outside causing him to be shocked and scared.
With his hand patting Little Bo's back, Fang Chi tried to soothe his child but at the same time, a rare flash of anger could be seen on his face. He turned to look at Shen Li and then said, " Brother Li, can you look after Little Bo? I need to go out and see who is scolding our wife."
As he handed Little Bo to Shen Li, the latter tried to stop him but Fang Chi said with a smile, " I am not going outside. I am just going to use the window on the side wall to see who is barking like a dog. There is no need to worry, Grandma Yu and Grandma Fang are outside along with Lang, I will be fine." With that, he put on his shoes and then rushed out of the house.
Xiao Hua who was also taking his afternoon was also awakened by the yells, at first he thought that he was dreaming but then he realized that someone was really screaming at Yu Dong. Furious, he immediately sat up in his bed and then cursed, his little face crumpled up in anger, " Who is crazy enough to curse someone like this in the middle of the day and that too when Yu Dong is not at home! Does she have no shame? What kind of woman goes looking for a fight when the woman of the house is not at home?!"
With that he rushed out of the house as well, followed by Xiao Zimo.
The two came to the Yu house in just three minutes as the Yu house wasn't that far from their own but even then they were a step too late than the nosy villagers who came to stand in front of the Yu house to see the drama. As soon as the two rushed in front of the Yu house, they saw Peng Jing standing in front of the Yu house with a basket of vegetables in front of her.
Aunt Wang who was responsible for watching the construction of the greenhouses immediately stepped forward and snapped harshly, " Peng Jing what are you doing? Why are you yelling in front of Yu Dong's house for no reason? Have you gone mad?"
" If you have gone mad then you need to stay inside the house, what are you doing biting people like a mad b*tch?" Xiao Hua immediately chimed in the fight as he rolled his sleeves and stepped forward in front of the battle crowd.
Lang tried to pull him back but the mer shook her hand off and then glared at Peng Jing like an equal.
" Why are you making a fuss in front of our house ?" Grandma Yu asked with a tired voice, she did not understand whether Yu Dong was born in a year of drama or something because that girl couldn't even have one month of peace and somehow if she managed to get some peace, trouble would come knocking on her door pretty soon.
" Thats right. Peng Jing, you are making it impossible for us to work! Can't you at least wait until everyone gets off work? Can't you see how harsh the sun is?"
" You want to work? What are you working so hard for? To fill the pockets of Yu Dong and her family?" Peng Jing did not think that she was in the wrong. She puffed out her chest and then looked at the villagers with a sympathetic look in her eyes and then scolded them, " You all say that you have to work hard but you don't even know that you are being made a fool all because you are foolish like a herd of sheep following their leader without even questioning whether she is in the wrong or right!"
After getting scolded and called foolish for no reason, the mers and the women of the village could not help but be angry.
If this was an intellectual woman like Wu Junfen, they would have listened to her scolding but who was Peng Jing? How dare this alcoholic tell them that they were fools who did not know anything!
" Peng Jing! What's the matter with you? Last time you made a fuss and refused to sign the contract and now you are making another fuss while yelling nonsense! Has the alcohol reached your head or something?"
" Peng Jing! If you don't want to live in this village just say so! Why do you have to create havoc every second day of the month? You might not have a job but we do have tons of work left in our farms! You are the one who is disturbing everyone when they are working and now you dare to say that we are foolish ?"
" Exactly! Do you think we don't have anything good to do? My children were napping but they were disturbed by your screams and yells. Now that they have woken up, you tell me how are they going to work in the fields while being so fussy?"
