Chapter 916: Chapter 919: Go Home and Recite Scriptures!
"Who knows if your family’s Ke Tian will avoid retribution?"
"I think this can’t be blamed on anyone else, I can’t even stand the name, let alone the deities above!"
Old folks always say that a name shouldn’t be too overwhelming; otherwise, it will be hard to control and bring calamity to the child.
But the Xiao Family never believed it, insisting on naming their grandson Ke Tian. How could heaven remain at ease?
Everyone was attacking Zheng Shi, but Zheng Shi still felt she was in the right.
"After one dose of medicine from others, you all start groveling like you have no backbone, thinking just because you’re fine this time, there won’t be trouble later? You’ll still meet a bad end!"
"What gives you the right to mock my Tian’er? What’s your grandson called? Dog Egg, Donkey Egg, or Big Yellow? Names not even fit for a dog, born to be lowly!"
"And don’t say Tian’er deserved it; if you were all such good people, would someone in your family have caught the plague?"
Zheng Shi got more and more into her tirade, wishing she could curse every single person present.
"How can you even talk like that? It was clearly your fault, and now you don’t let others speak?"
A woman spoke up discontentedly.
The Tan Family went to find prescriptions and even provided medicine for free; the Xiao Family didn’t appreciate it, which was one thing, but acting like rabid dogs and biting everyone was another!
And if there were something to say, couldn’t it be said nicely? Why curse someone’s family?
"The Tan Family saved our family members, and you won’t even let us thank them. You think you have the right?"
"I can confidently say I’ve never done anything bad, rest assured, even if your family is wiped out, it won’t come to mine!"
The yard grew louder and more intense, as if not stopping until satisfaction was guaranteed.
Zheng Shi wasn’t content with just berating the sick family members; she started attacking Qiao Duo’er as well.
Qing Xin couldn’t stand it anymore and picked up a broom, rushing out.
"My madam is pregnant and still toils every day with the plague business, where did she go wrong? How dare you falsely accuse my Madam; get out right now, the Tan Family doesn’t welcome you!"
Qing Xin was angry, but she was afraid of causing trouble for the Tan Family, so she dared not strike hard, only waving the broom in front of Zheng Shi.
Otherwise, she could have beaten Zheng Shi until she was toothless!
After driving Zheng Shi away, Qing Xin, still kindly, offered a suggestion: "Old witch, you better go home and chant some sutras, pray properly for your family!"
People like her, with ill intentions and causing trouble, are the most likely to bring disaster upon their own family!
The others consoled Qiao Duo’er, wondering: if they let Duo’er be troubled, how could she possibly help them like she does now?
Damn Zheng Shi, really causing significant harm!
"Duo’er, the kindness you’ve shown to us, we all remember in our hearts."
"Not a single good egg in the Xiao Family, they got what they deserved with their current fate."
"I won’t take her to heart. Your families all have sick members, go back and take good care of them," Qiao Duo’er said with a calm smile. 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙥𝙪𝙗.𝒄𝙤𝙢
She was just an ordinary person who couldn’t please everyone; as long as her conscience was clear, that was enough.
Watching people gradually disperse, Duo’er waddled into the house.
After entering July, her belly had swelled like a balloon, and she walked just like a penguin.
Granny Su said severely, "During this period, we need to be cautious and prevent the Xiao Family from getting close to Madam."
Because no one knows what those crazies might do.
"Zheng Shi won’t even touch the threshold while I’m here!"
Qing Xin proudly displayed her broom, realizing she hadn’t noticed before how handy it was for hitting people.
Granny Su nodded, "But you be careful, too. You’re so fierce, be careful not to scare away suitors!"
