Chapter 517: Scheming (5)_1
Wang Hehua initially didn’t react to what was happening, but after listening to Dong Family’s words, she instantly understood, especially when she saw the people around who heard the noise were all looking over, their expressions grew unsightly, "Dong Family, this isn’t right of you, to kneel down to a junior without reason, are you trying to curse Xinxin?"
Dong Family’s expression immediately became stiff.
"Besides, your daughter has her father, her mother, and even grandparents, how could you shamelessly ask a niece who has already split from the family to take care of her?" Wang Hehua’s voice was not soft, "Such words would be embarrassing to say in front of others..."
"I..." Dong Family suddenly found herself at a loss for words, her face flushing red.
"I used to think Dong Family was a good, quiet person, honest to a fault, but it turns out she’s quite scheming..." someone from the crowd that hurried over began to gossip.
"She bullies the weak and fears the strong too. How harsh is Yang Fourth on her? He’s nearly made her a concubine, and she doesn’t dare to let out a peep, yet she still thinks of plotting against the main house..."
Yang Ruxin didn’t feel anything in particular, except for the few who truly cared for her, the rest were just fair-weather friends. The reason they sided with her was partly because the Yang Family’s old house had behaved poorly, tarnishing their reputation, and partly because, since splitting from the family, she hadn’t just survived; she was actually living a better life. Moreover, many knew she was also doing business with the tavern in town. Of course, what was more important, and she understood this too, was that although she had severed ties with the Yang Family’s old house, the Yang Family clan had not abandoned her. Great Uncle Third and Great Uncle Fourth held her in high regard; everyone was no fool.
Dong Family didn’t expect everyone to start blaming her, and her tears immediately began to fall.
