Chapter 63 - 062 Unmask
The expressions on everyone's faces were priceless. They had assumed Tian Sangsang had given Aunt Tian some soy-braised meat, but listening to Tian Sangsang's account, it turned out Aunt Tian had sneakily helped herself to the meat while no one was home. How could someone act like this? Even if you're relatives, you can't behave this way! They immediately recalled Aunt Tian's character—her hands couldn't quite keep to themselves. Whenever she visited someone's house, she'd quietly pocket something if she had the chance. Being from the same village, some folks had seen her do it but felt too embarrassed to bring it up. After all, she's not a kid, right?
Truth be told, they had disliked Tian Sangsang in the past because she was truly ugly—dark-skinned and overweight. But they didn't particularly like Chen Guilan's family either.
As the saying goes, there's no such thing as "least disliked," only "more disliked," isn't that right? Comparing the two, of course Tian Sangsang was the more disliked one. Moreover, the Tian Family had Tian Tian, their little darling, which made the villagers instinctively overlook the family's other flaws. But today, this incident had certainly reminded them.
Tian Sangsang sighed and said slowly, "Aunt was in such a rush that day, I didn't even get the chance to tell her not to eat so much soy-braised meat at once. That's half a jar, weighing four to five pounds of pork if you measure it. Eating too much can be life-threatening, you know. Grandma, just letting Aunt lie down isn't going to cut it—we should get a doctor to take a look."
Grandma Tian sneered, "Take a look at what? What's there to see? I think you deliberately set Aunt up. Now Aunt's sick and needs money, so you have to pay compensation."
"I don't even know what kind of illness Aunt has. Besides, I don't have money to compensate her. She ate the braised meat at my house on her own, and my son and I ate it without any problems."
"You say you have no money, yet what were you doing in town the past few days? Don't try to pull a fast one on me—pay up! You could even drag Tian Tian's reputation into this mess—there's nothing you wouldn't do!"
"Fine, I can pay." Tian Sangsang paused and suddenly spoke up.
The crowd was taken aback—why did they feel as though Tian Sangsang was being bullied? She shouldn't pay! Pay for what?!
