Wen Ran used her actions to tell them that it was definitely too late.
Ten arms, ten legs, Wen Ran tested them all one by one, starting clumsily at first, but gradually becoming proficient.
The disassembly was swift and neat, and even reassembling the arms and legs was done with a nonchalance that was terrifying.
The five n were tornted by Wen Ran to the point of tears, promising they would turn over a new leaf and start fresh.
After pondering for a while, Wen Ran stripped them of everything they carried and waved her hand, rcifully letting them go.
Thinking about it is really sigh-inducing; she got a chance to practice, and even got money out of it, although together they didn’t add up to twenty, but...
Even fly legs are at!
Wen Ran wasn’t the least bit disdainful.
As she walked, she found herself near the residential buildings of the cotton textile factory and heard voices inside. Wen Ran couldn’t help but feel that things had changed.
The subject of gossip was naturally about Li Chenggang.
After all, he was soone they could see every day.
"Oh my, that Li Family is really cursed, no wonder they can’t have a boy, they’re just up to this crazy stuff."
"I tell you, that Xiao Family girl is really pitiful, they say if you marry a chicken, you follow the chicken, marry a dog, you follow the dog, but with a guy like that, her life’s over."
"What’s over? If you don’t have support from your parents, that’s when your life’s really over! Let tell you, here’s the inside scoop. The Xiao Family’s third son, the military one, arranged their divorce.
Now there’s no connection at all, even the girl was taken away by the Xiao Family!"
"What?" An old woman in the crowd was particularly indignant, "How can the Xiao Family do that? Isn’t that kicking them when they’re down?"
The crowd: "?"
With that, even Wen Ran couldn’t help but turn her head and look.
"What? What did you say?"
The old woman, seeing all the eyes on her, was imdiately smug, "I said the Xiao Family is lacking in morals!
The Li Family is struggling right now, and Xiao Chenyue, as the daughter-in-law, if she doesn’t stick with the Li Family through hard tis, who can you expect to?"
The crowd was dumbfounded, "No way, Wang Juhua, you must be mistaken, he’s a human trafficker!"
"So what if he’s a trafficker? A trafficker is still a person!"
Wang Juhua insisted, "The Xiao Family lacks integrity. In the future, we can’t be in-laws with them. If this was back in the day, when I was young, forget about divorce, a restless woman like that would be drowned and no one would say a word."
"Ugh, the Xiao Family has done well enough, let alone drowning. If you ask , you should have been drowned in your youth, save people from your trouble in old age."
"Hey! What do you an by that?" Wang Juhua was displeased, "I’ve spent my life managing my household and raising my kids quietly, how is this not like pointing your nose and cursing ."
"No difference, just cursing you! You’re just putting on a decent act in front of us, but we’ve seen how you treat your daughter-in-law.
When you’re old, don’t count on your daughter-in-law to take care of you..."
The argunt nearly escalated to a fight, Wen Ran felt sowhat relieved, seeing that most people had sense, knowing the root of it was Li Chenggang’s unworthiness.
However...
She turned her head to glance at Wang Juhua.
Considering Wang Juhua’s defense of the human trafficker and her terrible attitude towards her own daughter-in-law, Wen Ran boldly suspected sothing was fishy!
She morized this na in her heart, then quietly slipped away.
Ah~
After listening to the gossip, she still had to sell pork.
Thinking of those small bits of money, Wen Ran couldn’t help but drool.
People!
Who minds having less money~
It’s just, sotis, when you’re down, even cold water gets stuck in your teeth.
She had just taken two steps when an old man ca diagonally from the side and, without a word, fell in front of Wen Ran with a cry.
Wen Ran: "?"
Huh?
Did he just pretend to get hit like this?
The crowd instantly shot gossip-filled glances, "Whoa! Where did this little girl co from, she hit soone!"
Wen Ran: "..."
It’s not , it wasn’t , don’t talk nonsense!
"Oh~~ oh~~" The old man acted vigorously, lying on the ground holding his back, "Oh my old back~~ it hurts so much~~"
Looking up, he was a kindly looking old man, "You young people, how can you be so reckless, not watching where you walk!"
Wen Ran was numb, "I didn’t hit you."
"If it wasn’t you, could I have fallen by myself?" The old man looked tearful, pitiful as he cried, "I’m an old man, it’s not like I’m trying to extort you for a bit of money and ruin my reputation!"
With that, he wiped away his tears, a flash of cunning crossed his eyes, "Do you have proof that you didn’t hit ?"
Wen Ran pursed her lips, gauging the crowd’s expressions, she had a pretty good idea.
People go with the flow, and have a subconscious sympathy for the weak.
At this mont, Wen Ran felt a twinge of resentnt for the lack of surveillance caras in the sixties and seventies.
Wen Ran sighed, "Fine, you insist on doing this, right?"
Then let’s do it!
Fight fire with fire!
She put down her basket, and in front of everyone, slowly laid down on the ground.
The crowd: "?"
She blinked, and tears began to fall, "Wuwuwuwu, you shaless person, how can you turn the tables like this?
If you hadn’t co over to touch , would I have pushed you?"
Old man: "?"
His expression cracked.
The crowd: "!"
"What? This old fart, so shaless?"
"Hey, not necessarily, maybe the young girl is just making it up?"
"Are you kidding ? The girl is pretty as a picture, why would she sar herself?"
"Exactly, maybe this old guy disrespected the young girl, and she pushed him!"
Wen Ran wept, but sparingly, not out of fear.
Mainly, she wasn’t confident about her foundation holding up, if she cried too much and blotched it, it’d be embarrassing.
She softly sobbed, "Wuwuwu, I want to report to the police!"
"Yes, report it! Pfft! Shaless old coot, taking advantage of the girl, why didn’t you fall to your death!"
The scene turned one-sided, the old man lay there, eyes full of helplessness, but then a grandma pushed her way through the crowd, threw herself on the old man, and started wailing.
"My poor husband!" The granny howled, "That heartless brat hit you and won’t admit it!"
The accomplice arrived, the old man imdiately perked up, performing better than ever, "Wife, you’re finally here, if you hadn’t co, I’d have been bullied to death!"
He shook his hands, "I’m an old man, for her to shirk responsibility, accusing of touching her, I really can’t explain it with all my might!
Isn’t this ruining my old age? Oh heavens, give us justice!"
