Chapter 355
"Let’s go, do you think I care?"
The woman snorted softly and walked out, swaying her hips.
She didn’t look like a villager but more like a city-dwelling young wife, stylishly dressed and wearing light makeup.
Overall, she had a slightly sophisticated air about her, giving off a bit of a bourgeois vibe.
Yang Fan was curious about her relationship with Ma Baoyu, and from their conversation, it seemed the feud between their families was not minor.
However, it was their family matter and, though curious, Yang Fan felt it was rude to pry further.
He didn’t say anything, but Ma Baoyu took the initiative to speak, "This woman is my cousin’s widow, a real nuisance. I’ve helped her a lot in the past, I’ve sweated over both in and outside her household. Yet, she accuses me of having an affair with another widow in the village and spread it all over, so now everyone knows."
"If I had actually had an affair with that woman, I would have accepted it despite my reluctance. The key thing is, she made this up without any evidence, tarnishing my reputation by mere imagination, and suddenly I was the villager everyone wanted to shun like a rat crossing the street."
Yang Fan smiled, "That does sound quite miserable."
"Miserable it might not be, I don’t care what others say. What’s said is said, it doesn’t matter," Ma Baoyu shook his head and continued, "Actually, I was quite interested in that young widow, and we were nearly an item."
"Then this rumor came out, and she left the village for good. Now I don’t even have her contact information, finding her has become impossible."
