Chapter 216 Undriven (3)_1
Several villagers who had heard exchanged nods of agreement.
"Miss, haven’t you read the Women’s Conduct?" the glamorous lady smirked at Lin Ziyin.
Her mocking smile suggested that she thought of Lin as a country bumpkin lacking in exposure and education.
"I am but a country girl, unprivileged enough to get an education." Lin Ziyin’s remark sparked laughter in the two ladies of higher status.
"No wonder you attach no value to one’s purity." The younger lady scornfully sneered, not bothering to hide her disdain.
"Could the ladies please listen to our grievances? These two grown men took liberties with my niece and planned to merely walk away. Can I not go to the government offices to report them?" Yan Daniu perked up when he saw respected figures extend their help.
"Please, madams, stand up for our girls." Yan’s wife pleaded on her knees fervently.
Lin Ziyin watched the scene with a stoic expression, pondering over the identities of these two women. They had once tried to seize her tofu recipes at the marketplace, were later suppressed by Si Family and had now strangely surfaced again.
"Fear not, we’re here to step in when injustice is done. I absolutely despise those who misuse their power," the young lady pompously stared at Lin Ziyin and suggested, "Sister, why don’t we play matchmakers and bless these girls with marriages?"
"We’ve just made vows at the temple. Facilitating two marriages might be a way to accumulate virtue." The lady responded with a smile.
