Heaven-Sent Farm Girl Builds Her Fortune And Captures His Heart

Chapter 332: We’ll See About That

Perhaps it was a coincidence, just as Shen Qinglan arrived home and sent away the other two carriages that helped with the bride prices, the door of the Fang Family next door opened.Coming out were the plump woman Shen Qinglan had seen before and a middle-aged man, presumably Wang Li’s husband, Fang Liang.

"Oh!" Fang Liang spoke with a flattering smile, "Has Brother Shen returned?"

Out of politeness, Shen Shan nodded at him, though his face didn’t look good.

"Putting on airs?" Wang Li sneered coldly, "Really think you’re some wealthy lord."

"Speaking of which, I have something to settle with you." Dong Yao rarely spoke coldly, "You went to the Qiu Family to gossip, telling them not to marry their daughter into our Shen Family. We’ve been neighbors for years, and I believe I’ve never offended you, Wang Li. Aren’t you afraid of being struck by lightning for saying such things?"

"What?" Fang Liang, "Did you really say those things?"

Wang Li snorted coldly, "Even if I said it, so what? I can’t stand the attitude of the Shen Family. It’s just making some money, what’s so impressive?"

"What did our Shen Family do to you?" Dong Yao was furious, "I know you’ve never liked our family; when you first married in, you always poured the dishwater over to our side when cooking, or made snide remarks about our family’s poverty, saying even Heaven couldn’t stand it, sending us a fool. I’ve tolerated these for your status as a new wife, but you actually went to the Qiu Family to stab us in the back with those words. Can you sleep well at night?"

Wang Li said shamelessly, "My mouth is mine; I can say whatever I want. What’s it to do with you?"

Shen Qinglan sneered coldly, and said to Fang Liang, who was about to speak, "A few days ago, when I returned to the village, I saw your wife with a man in the bushes on the back hill, doing shameful things."

"What?" Fang Liang’s eyes widened, glaring at Wang Li, "How dare you sneak behind me?"

"She’s talking nonsense!" Wang Li was furious, "You idiot, how dare you spout lies. See if I don’t tear your mouth apart!"

Saying this, she rolled up her sleeves to grab someone but was pushed away by Dong Yao.

Dong Yao stood protectively in front of Shen Qinglan, coldly saying, "Didn’t you say, your mouth is yours, you can say whatever you want?"

"You——"

Wang Li was flushed with anger.

Fang Liang nudged Wang Li lightly, "Quickly apologize to Sister Shen!"

"Apologize for what?" Wang Li shouted, "What’s the use of me apologizing to her?"

"Can’t do anything to you." Shen Qinglan said indifferently, "Anyway, no one believes what you say."

"Uh... she, she was just momentarily confused," Fang Liang laughed awkwardly, "Sister Shen, please don’t mind!"

Seeing Dong Yao ignoring him, Fang Liang hurriedly looked at Shen Shan, only to receive a cold snort from Shen Shan before he turned and went inside.

Fang Liang’s face was full of embarrassment; most people in the village knew he was henpecked.

Dong Yao gave Wang Li a cold glance and also went inside.

Shen Qinglan looked at Wang Li and said eerily, "Next time, I’ll make you realize how words can hurt."

"I spit—"

Wang Li spat in front of her face, saying, "You dare threaten me, a little fool who just recovered from a stupid illness? Have a look at yourself."

Shen Qinglan smirked, "Then let’s wait and see."

If it weren’t for her second brother’s impending marriage and avoiding trouble, she would have started a fight long ago. Could she let Wang Li bully her like this?

Once she went inside, Wang Li spat towards the Shen Family’s door.
