Chapter 208 Apology
The village chief's words were not only a knock on Widow Wang, but also on other women in the village.
Today, Widow Wang dares to arrange something for Gu Manxiu behind his back, and more people will talk about it tomorrow. Sooner or later, the matter will reach Gu Manxiu's ears. This is something the village chief does not want to see.
Gu Manxiu was still talking to Aunt Wan about the Quyuanli on the drawing. When she heard the movement outside the door, she got up and planned to open the door.
Aunt Wan stopped the man and said, "Dahe, go and have a look."
Gu Manxiu has been very popular in the village these days, and Aunt Wan doesn't want those interested people to cause trouble for Gu Manxiu.
Gu Manxiu didn't know what Aunt Wan was thinking. Seeing that Aunt Wan wouldn't let her move, she just thought that Aunt Wan wanted her to rest for a while, but didn't think much about it.
"Village chief? What are you..."
Dong Dahe was startled when he saw that the person coming was the village chief.
Especially when he saw the group of women following the village chief, Dong Dahe scratched his head, and for a moment he really couldn't figure out what the village chief wanted to do.
"Is your mother also here at Manxiu?"
the village chief asked.
Dong Dahe nodded, "Mom wants me to make a Quyuan plow for my family. We are here specifically to ask Manxiu for advice."
The village chief sighed after hearing this, "Let's go, let's go in first."
Dong Dahe looked at Widow Wang who was following the village chief and looked a little strange. Although he didn't know what happened, he always felt that the matter seemed serious.
Otherwise, the village chief would not have visited Manxiu's house when it was almost time to eat.
Aunt Wanzi kept staring in the direction of the door and was a little surprised to see that the person coming was the village chief.
"Village chief? What happened? Why are you here now?"
However, before the village chief could answer, Widow Wang, who was following behind the village chief, walked in with a grimace.
Seeing Widow Wang, Aunt Wan frowned unconsciously.
She was very dissatisfied with Widow Wang. Such a person who liked to make irresponsible remarks behind the scenes might have something in mind.
"Village chief, why did you bring so many people here? Mr. Jiang is still in class there, so don't affect the children's studies."
What Aunt Wanzi meant by saying this was to tell the village chief that Widow Wang was not an economical person. She might cause some trouble later and it would affect her children's studies. It would be better to take them away as soon as possible.
The village chief rubbed his nose in embarrassment. He couldn't understand the meaning of Aunt Wanzi's words. It's just that Widow Wang dared to arrange Gu Manxiu and Jiang Yichen behind their backs, so she had to be taught a lesson.
Aunt Wan glared at the village chief, not wanting to really quarrel with him in front of so many people.
"Why are you still standing there? Why don't you quickly apologize to Manxiu!"
Gu Manxiu originally thought that the village chief was looking for her for something else, but she didn't expect the village chief to ask Widow Wang to apologize to her. Gu Manxiu stood up quickly.
"Village Chief, what's going on? Why do you have to apologize to me?"
The village chief glared at Widow Wang impatiently, "Tell me what you have done? Manxiu has never done anything sorry for you, why are you so harmful to others?"
Widow Wang's lips moved, trying to defend herself.
But seeing the village chief's face looking a little unkind, Widow Wang didn't dare to say what she said.
When the village chief saw Widow Wang's little actions, how could he not know what she was thinking?
In the past, when Widow Wang got into trouble, he could turn a blind eye, but this time the incident involved Gu Manxiu, and he had to stand up.
Seeing that Widow Wang looked aggrieved and was not protected by the village chief, she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.
Seeing everyone around her staring at her, Widow Wang could only say to Gu Manxiu: "Sister Manxiu, it's my fault today. I...I shouldn't say anything against you behind your back..."
Gu Manxiu's eyes flashed, and she understood what Widow Wang had done.
She knew a little about Widow Wang. After all, there was some trouble in the village, and it was probably this person who had called her out.
When Zhao Chuni heard Widow Wang's vague words, she knew that this woman was acting like a monster again.
She immediately put her hands on her hips and scolded, "Widow Wang, aren't you usually a good talker? You talk about other people's affairs in one way after another, but how come you can't keep your tongue straight when it comes to yourself?"
"That's right, didn't you say it very neatly when you said Manxiu just now? Why can't you even say an apology now?"
Seeing Widow Wang's face turning blue and red, everyone laughed in their hearts.
The woman standing next to Zhao Chunni mocked: "You are the only one who knows how to save face. Why didn't you know how to save face when you were gossiping just now?"
When the village chief saw this movement, he knew that the villagers had been grudged against Widow Wang for a long time.
It's just that everyone used to think that without Widow Wang, it would be difficult for a woman to live in the village. Therefore, even if everyone was angry, it was hard to really quarrel with Widow Wang.
Now Widow Wang is so aggressive that she even bullies Gu Manxiu. Gu Manxiu not only has no man, but also has three children to support at home.
Everyone is so angry this time because they probably want to use Gu Manxiu's incident to vent their years of dissatisfaction.
"Widow Wang! You can't even apologize?"
When the village chief saw more and more people watching, he scolded Widow Wang.
Widow Wang felt even more aggrieved. She had not been scolded like this in many years.
Today she not only had to bow her head in front of Gu Manxiu, but also had to be scolded by the village chief and laughed at by the people in the village.
"I'm sorry, Miss Manxiu, it's my fault. I shouldn't have said anything against you behind your back."
Widow Wang rarely admits her mistakes, and people who don't know about it feel happy when they see her.
Who of these people from Chen Xingcun have not been gossiped about by Widow Wang?
It's just that because of Widow Wang's status, it's hard to get to know her in the same way.
Some uninformed people pulled Zhao Chunni's sleeves and asked her: "What's going on? The sun comes out from the west today? Why did Widow Wang apologize to others?"
"That's right. Why did her stupid mouth talk like a human being today?"
Zhao Chunni saw many people's eyes falling on her, but she didn't shy away from it.
"Sister Manxiu recently made a Quyuanli. Everyone is naturally happy to have something good, but Widow Wang is not nice to her. She says that the things made by Sister Manxiu are just gadgets."
"She saw someone marrying Sister Manxiu some time ago, and she also became jealous. She said those people had no discernment. Sister Manxiu killed her own man and brought three sluts with her. Who married Sister Manxiu?
Sooner or later, she will drag you to death."
As soon as Zhao Chuni finished speaking, the whole courtyard fell into silence for a moment, and everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Widow Wang.
Widow Wang's face turned red when she saw it, and she glared at Zhao Chuni fiercely. But what Zhao Chuni said did come from her mouth. Even if she wanted to defend herself, she couldn't find an excuse now.
