Chapter 37: Giving You Salary

"Achoo!" Su Li rubbed her nose. Who was scolding her?

After waiting for a while, no one came out of Chen Xiang's house. Su Li shouted into the house again.

"Sister?"

The door of Chen Xiang's house was closed, so she could not just push the door open and enter. What if they did not welcome her?

After all, she was no longer the same as before. She was now a "good citizen!"

"Shall I go out and take a look?" Chen Xiang said.

He Dahai frowned in disapproval. "Ignore her. If she has the ability, she can come in."

"It's okay. I'll just go take a look."

Chen Xiang strode towards the door.

"Sister, why are you looking for me?"

Su Li picked up the oil residue in her hand. "I have some fried food here that my family can't finish, so I brought some for you to try."

Chen Xiang looked at the oil in the bowl in a daze. How could it be that her family could not finish it? It was just an excuse that Su Li made up to take care of her emotions.

She wasn't the kind of person who didn't know what was good for her, nor was she the kind of person who liked to take advantage of others. She didn't help Su Li much, so she couldn't accept them.

Chen Xiang's eyes were a little moist as she said, "I don't deserve such a reward. I can't take it. Take it back!"

Su Li saw through Chen Xiang's concerns. "Sister, I have something to ask of you. If you don't accept these things, I'll be too embarrassed to ask."

Chen Xiang smiled and said, "It's my duty to help my neighbors. If you need anything, just tell me."

"Then accept this bowl of oil first." Su Li stuffed the bowl into Chen Xiang's hand.

He Mingshan ran out and stared at the bowl of oil in Chen Xiang's hand.

"Mother, I want to eat!" He Mingshan said.

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Chen Xiang's face. Just as she was about to find an excuse to reject He Mingshan, Su Li took the bowl from her hand and stuffed it into He Mingshan's hand.

"Take it into the house and eat it! Return the bowl to me later."

There were not many bowls at home. If she did not bring the bowls back, there would not even be a bowl to hold rice.

"Thank you, Auntie."

"Aye..."

Chen Xiang wanted to say something, but He Mingshan ran away with the oil residue. Chen Xiang couldn't chase after him. Moreover, looking at He Mingshan's happy expression just now, she couldn't bear to take the things back.

"I'm really sorry. The child is insensible."

Chen Xiang could only apologize to Su Li.

Su Li smiled and shook her head. "It's for you guys anyway. Sister, are you free tomorrow? I want to ask you for a favor."

Chen Xiang naturally agreed hurriedly. At first, she thought that Su Li was just being polite. She did not expect that she really had something to ask her for help. This time, the burden in her heart lessened a little.

With Chen Xiang's help, Su Li's speed of making soap was much faster.

"Can this thing really be used to wash clothes?" Chen Xiang looked at the thing in her hand with uncertainty.

This was completely different from the soap pods. This was the first time she had seen such a thing in her life.

Su Li then explained to Chen Xiang how to use fragrant soap and soap. She also gave her one and asked her to give it a try.

"Sister, it's been hard on you for the past two days. After you exchange these things for money, I'll give you your salary."

Chen Xiang rubbed her sore shoulders and waved her hands when she heard Su Li say that she wanted to give her salary.

"What salary do I need? I agreed to help!"

Su Li said, "I still have to give you what I should give. Moreover, these things can be sold for money. I'm not giving you a salary from my own pocket!"

The last time she made soap, she was really too tired. She had the idea of finding someone to help her, but who she could find was a problem.

After all, she was not familiar with the villagers and their relationship was not good. After thinking about it, only Chen Xiang fit her criteria the most. Chen Xiang was not a talkative person and was relatively timid. Most importantly, she had a good relationship with her.

Of course, this "good relationship" was only what Su Li thought unilaterally!

Hence, Chen Xiang became the best candidate in Su Li's heart.

After dinner, Su Li circled the village a few more times. Occasionally, she would encounter people from the village pointing at her.

"Have you heard? She beat her mother-in-law until she couldn't get out of bed!"

"Why haven't I heard? I even saw her splash feces on Madam Wang with my own eyes!"

"I heard that Second Brother He brought his wife to ask for an explanation and was almost killed by her with a hatchet."

"Ever since she got married, she hasn't stopped. She's causing trouble at home every day. She asked to split up from the family after giving birth. This is the first time I've met such a person!"

"The He family is really unlucky to have such a daughter-in-law."

"Isn't that so? The ancients said that one has to marry a virtuous wife. With their son marrying this woman, the family is destined not to prosper."

"Those two children don't look like He Yufeng's. I wonder if she gave birth to them with someone else!"

"That's hard to say. Didn't you hear Madam Wang always calling them little b*stards?"

Su Li glanced at the person who was muttering. Initially, she wanted to ignore them, but she heard them start to discuss the two little fellows.

She gritted her teeth and walked over.

"Everyone's talking so much. Why don't you include me too?"

"..." Everyone shut their mouths. It was a little awkward for the person they were talking about to hear them discussing.

Su Li looked at a chubby woman and said, "Auntie Li, the bump on your son's head was beaten up by Er Liuzi, right? I happened to see them climbing Widow Zhou's wall together that day. Then, the two of them fought. It was a wonderful fight! I almost clapped and shouted back then."

"But Widow Zhou is indeed pretty. Why don't your son marry her and she can be your daughter-in-law? That beauty will definitely give birth to a beautiful granddaughter for you."

Auntie Li's expression changed. "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Su Li said with a faint smile, "I'm talking nonsense? If you don't believe me, you can get your daughter-in-law to come out and ask her, I remember that your daughter-in-law had caused a ruckus at Widow Zhou's house for a long time. How did she go back in the end?"

"I remember now. It was your son who begged her to go back on his knees!"

Auntie Li's expression became worse and worse. This matter had always been a thorn in her heart, and she was extremely dissatisfied with her daughter-in-law. If she had not forced her son to kneel, she would not have lost face!

Besides, her son was young and impetuous. What was wrong with climbing the widow's wall?

If she knew how to serve her husband, would he go out and find another woman? If she wanted to blame someone, she could only blame herself. Instead, she pushed the responsibility to her man. How shameless!

If not for the fact that her daughter-in-law was pregnant, she would have slapped her to death. What was the use of such a woman? Just looking at her annoyed her.

"Are you crazy? I can't be bothered with you..."

Auntie Li snorted and turned around to leave. She couldn't afford to offend her, but she could hide.

After Auntie Li left, Su Li continued to search for her next target.

"Auntie Zhang, the last time I saw..."

Auntie Zhang's heart skipped a beat. Before Su Li could finish speaking, she hurriedly interrupted her and found an excuse to escape the scene.

"I haven't fed my pigs yet. I'll leave first!"

"I haven't washed my clothes yet!"

"I haven't chopped my pig grass yet!"

Everyone who was originally gathered together dispersed. Everyone was afraid that Su Li would reveal their dark history.
