Chapter 125: Truly Shameless

However, he could not possibly ask the villagers to kill w.a.n.g Xing’er, right? He also could not escort w.a.n.g Xing’er to the county to be arrested and brought to justice.

“Folks, folks, calm down and listen to me.”

The Junior Officer spoke up quickly when he saw that everyone was unhappy with w.a.n.g Xing’er and also increasingly unhappy with the Chief.

“We can’t leave the village now, and we also can’t kill w.a.n.g Xing’er. We can only chase her away first. The Chief hesitated because he was thinking about how to deal with w.a.n.g Xing’er.

“Her father has contracted the epidemic disease, so we should not touch her. We can only chase her out of the village and make sure she never returns.”

“That will be letting her off too easily!” someone said indignantly when they heard the Junior Officer’s words.

However, they also understood him. w.a.n.g Xing’er was now a hot potato. They had to throw her out quickly!

“I really want to throw her into a fire and burn her to death. This woman is a poisonous snake!”

Although some people said these things, they did not dare to kill. They were just empty words.

w.a.n.g Xing’er woke up slowly amidst everyone’s curses. She was shocked when she saw the crowd surrounding her.

“What… what are you trying to do?”

She sat up, shivering, and looked fearfully at the men with sticks.

“What are we trying to do? We should be asking what are you trying to do?”

w.a.n.g Xing’er’s husband walked out of the crowd and looked at his wife in disappointment.

“I really didn’t expect you to be so vicious as to wash your clothes in the spring. Do you know that your son and daughter drink the water here every day? What if they contract the epidemic disease?

“Can you really bear to watch them die with you?”

“I…” w.a.n.g Xing’er looked around with her large eyes.

I can’t admit what I was trying to do. I’ll be dead meat if I do!

“I didn’t do anything. I don’t have anything. I just wanted to wash a few clothes. What’s wrong with that? This spring doesn’t belong to anyone. I can wash my clothes and even shower here. It has nothing to do with you all!”

“You—” The man almost died from anger.

Spouting whatever she wants… She’s truly shameless!

He exhaled heavily and stared intently into w.a.n.g Xing’er’s eyes.

“w.a.n.g Xing’er, just you wait! I’m going to divorce you, you vicious woman!”

“Don’t you dare!”

w.a.n.g Xing’er gasped and jumped up, glaring at her husband.

The man spat fiercely, “Why not? You did this and tried to kill everyone in our village today. It’s only right for me to divorce you! The two children will have nothing to do with you in the future. They don’t have a vicious mother like you!”

“You… you…” w.a.n.g Xing’er’s pale lips trembled as she looked at her husband in disbelief.

She dared to do this because she knew her husband would support her and stand by her side no matter what.

But now he wants to divorce me over such a small matter!

“I was just washing my clothes. What’s wrong with that? How is that heinous? Don’t you all wash your clothes? Or do you just keep your clothes on and let them stink?”
