In theory, as she continues her life in the village, she should indeed show some respect to the village chief. After all, it’s inevitable that they will meet each other now and then in the future, and that would always make things easier. However, in front of Mrs. Song today, if she were to bow her head, Mrs. Song might take it as a sign of fear of the village chief. And in the future, Mrs. Song would not be the least bit scared of Zhuang Qingning if anything were to happen again.
Without much thought, Zhuang Qinqning loudly said: “Uncle village chief, your willingness to speak for me is a great thing, and I have thanked you for it. However, this is just how I am. I cannot tolerate any injustice and was bullied in the past. In the future, not to mention Aunt, no matter who dares to bully my family, I will not hesitate to fight back!”
The young girl’s words were cold and firm and had a great momentum when she spoke.
Even Zhuang Jingye was taken aback for a moment.
He coughed a little after he regained his senses.
This girl is indeed a tough one, not easy to talk into anything.
Fortunately, Mrs. Song got really scared this time. In the future, she is sure to be more careful and not dare to cause trouble for Zhuang Qingning. While it might be true that Zhuang Qingning is a bit prickly, she never went looking for trouble. Let her say whatever she wants at this moment.
Avoid arguing with her. This girl might think he’s siding with Mrs. Song and thus creating problems for him in the future. He truly couldn’t afford to offend someone who doesn’t hesitate to wield a kitchen knife.
“Alright, alright, your temper is fierce, and you are not someone I can control. But being this tough at such a young age, you’re like a hedgehog…”
“Uncle village chief, rest assured. As long as others don’t provoke me, I certainly won’t trouble them either. But if someone insists on messing with me and gets pricked, they can’t blame me, right?”
His unfinished words got stuck in his throat as Zhuang Jingye coughed again, feeling a bit relieved.
Well, a hedgehog just sits there quietly. Why do you have to get close? If you get pricked, would you then question why the hedgehog has spines?
Zhuang Jingye didn’t argue further with Zhuang Qingning and just waved at the crowd: “Alright, everyone disperse. Go on with what you were doing.”
“Keep this in mind for the future, don’t go around bullying others. If anyone ends up hurting themselves because of their own cunning little schemes, don’t say you’re unlucky then!”
With the issue resolved and the show over, everyone started to disperse at the village chief’s order. They couldn’t bear the stench of urine and went home to prepare and have their meal.
As the spectators were almost all gone, and Zhuang Ruman hadn’t come to pick up Mrs. Song, she saw that people were leaving one after another. With Zhuang Qingning, who was holding a kitchen knife, next to her, she was afraid that Zhuang Qingning might get angry again and chop her. Therefore, she got up from the ground and ran home crying.
“Miss Ning.” Mrs. He grasped Zhuang Qingning’s hand: “Are you alright?”
“Auntie, don’t worry, I’m fine.” Zhuang Qingning grinned.
“Just now, Miss Sui came looking for us, saying that you got into trouble. We were so scared. I asked Sui to stay at home while both of us rushed out to check. Fortunately, you held the upper hand, which is quite a relief.”
However, after this incident, Zhuang Qingning’s reputation will likely suffer.
It will become more notorious.
Mrs. He sighed silently.
But if Zhuang Qingning herself doesn’t care about her reputation, and considering today’s matter, Mrs. Song initially came to demand dumplings. In the future, who knows what she might demand. If Mrs. Song isn’t stopped this time, given her character, she will definitely intensify her actions in the future. Then, there would be nothing she could say in Zhuang Qingning’s defense.
“I really didn’t expect Mrs. Song to be this shameless, daring to barge in like this and even demanding that Miss Ning be filial to her. She really doesn’t feel embarrassed at all.” Mrs. He couldn’t help cursing as she thought about it.
“Her type, where would they ever know what shame is? Her heart is utterly black. Isn’t it just because Miss Ning made some silver selling tofu and she wants to get her hands on it?”
Zhuang Yonghe agreed, nodding: “Yes, didn’t Zhuang Yuanren come home a few days ago? Zhuang Ruman kept saying that Yuanren is sure to pass the prefectural examination this time, he must have come home in preparation for it.”
“Going to the prefectural city will undoubtedly require expenses. He took a lot of money from home and the family is strapped for cash. So Mrs. Song had set her sights on Miss Ning.”
“Miss Ning, don’t worry in the future. If anything happens, come and look for me, I’ll stand up for you.”
After all, she’s a young girl. Even if she’s hot-tempered and won’t let anyone bully her, she still needs to maintain some reputation. Previously, there were only rumors, but this time she actually wielded a kitchen knife. It definitely had an impact on Zhuang Qingning’s reputation.
Zhuang Qingning understood Zhuang Yonghe’s intentions and did not refute. She just nodded: “There’s nothing else to worry about now. Let’s hurry back home. I guess Uncle and Auntie are having lunch now.”
“Well, we were just starting to eat when…”
The three of them returned to Zhuang Yonghe’s house. Zhuang Qingsui was anxiously looking toward the road, with Zhuang Mingliang and Zhuang Minghao, on either side. Seeing the three of them return, everyone came to meet them.
“Sister.” Zhuang Qingsui threw herself into Zhuang Qingning’s arms, tears falling down.
“It’s okay, it’s okay. I just gave Aunt a good scare, I’m fine.” Zhuang Qingning laughed, patting Zhuang Qingsui’s back.
“Don’t worry, Sui. You don’t have to worry anymore.” Mrs. He also tried to comfort her in a low voice: “After causing such a scene, Mrs. Song won’t dare to cause trouble for you again.”
Seeing that everyone looked relaxed and Zhuang Qingning seemed fine, Zhuang Qingsui finally relaxed.
It was time for lunch, so the sisters didn’t interfere with Zhuang Yonghe’s family meal time and returned home first.
The dumplings in the bowl had cooled down completely by now.
Eating cold meaty food might upset the stomach, so Zhuang Qingning lit a small fire, put the cooled dumplings in the pan, and fried them again.
The fried dumplings were golden and crispy on the outside. The sisters once again started enjoying their aromatic lunch.
Zhuang Jingye returned home and continued eating his noodles.
The cold noodles.
“Would you like me to steam them for you?” Mrs. Ye suggested as she was washing dishes.
“It’s too much trouble, just leave it.” Zhuang Jingye was indifferent.
After such an incident just now, he had lost his appetite.
There’s never a moment of peace in this village!
It seems that he needs to keep everyone in check, especially Zhuang Ruman and Mrs. Song. If he could nip it in the bud, the issues would be easier to deal with.
However, he couldn’t come down too hard on them, especially since Zhuang Yuanren was a scholar. If he could pass the county exam next year, he would officially become the scholar. He would be the first scholar in the village. If he could pass the imperial exam and become a government official in the future, he might even have to curry favor with their family.
When dealing with people and affairs, he had to keep a back door open for himself…
“Oh right.”
Zhuang Jingye was pondering when Mrs. Ye came over.
“I think Miss Ning is quite a character. In the future, you should take care of her family more, there might be benefits..”
