Chapter 10: The Ultimate Level of Quarreling
Shen Meng looked at everyone with a sorrowful gaze, but sneered internally. The true pinnacle of quarreling isn't turning red from shouting, but rather to speak in such an insidiously sarcastic manner that it leaves the other helpless and speechless.
Though what's said may be somewhat unpleasant, it's nothing but the truth.
Shen Fugui and Wang Guizhi helped Shen Meng to the kang bed, feeling extremely proud of their daughter's words. Now was not the time to be aggressive, just as when they first arrived at the Lu Family; because they were anxious, they quarreled and, in the eyes of outsiders, it seemed to be their own fault.
After helping Shen Meng, who looked somewhat breathless, sit down, the two quietly pulled several children behind them. Although Mingyang was not pulled back, it didn't interfere with their show of weakness.
Li Debang and Zhang Hongfa felt quite ashamed by Shen Meng's words. Incidents of people getting injured by cattle from the production team during the busy farming season weren't unheard of. When cattle got mad, people could even get killed. Shen Meng was alone with Zhou Jiaojiao when she was hit.
When she was carried back by the villagers, she cursed the heavens and earth, accusing Zhou Jiaojiao of trying to harm her. She also said that Zhou Jiaojiao was up to no good and would end up harming her husband and children. Zhou Jiaojiao had married into the Lu Family Village for over half a year, and she was usually gentle and polite, greeting everyone she saw and lending a hand whenever needed. In contrast, Shen Meng was deceitful and often scolded the children.
Between the two, there was no need to look to know whose side everyone stood on.
But... Regardless of how Shen Meng insulted people, she really was hit by the production team's cattle. To not even talk about compensation or seeing the doctor, not having someone from the production team come over to take a look is indeed unreasonable.
Lu Debang pursed his lips and, wielding his authority as the village chief, frowned at Shen Meng.
