Chapter 120 Apology
Miss Liu stood up and walked out from her seat like a proud peacock. She walked up to Qianhuan and began to mock her mercilessly.
"This must be Jiang Lang's ex-fiancée, right? Jiang Lang always told me that he likes women who are well-educated and considerate. Unfortunately, Jiang Lang said that Miss Liang was illiterate and behaved in a rude and rude manner, so he had to cancel the marriage. This made Jiang Lang and I destined to be together. Miss Liang, I can only apologize to you on behalf of Jiang Lang."
Liu Yingying thought to herself: Humph, no matter how pretty you are, Liang Qianhuan, you are still a fool, and in the end Jiang Lang still chose me.
"Well, I accept your apology. After all, Jiang Lin had already been secretly having an affair with Miss Liu before he broke off the engagement with me. You really should apologize for such an immoral behavior." Qianhuan said seriously.
The people around immediately became excited when they heard this gossip. Some gossipers even started to grumble, "No way, a lady from such a prominent family is even more shameless than country folk like us? She's actually having sex with a man who has a fiancée?"
Liu Yingying never thought Qianhuan would say such a thing. When she heard the discussions of the people around her, she immediately looked ashamed and angry, "Don't slander me. When did Jiang Lang and I secretly have an affair?
"Don't you two know best when to sneak into Chencang?"
"I'm afraid you are angry that Jiang Lang broke off the engagement, so you deliberately said these words to slander us. I didn't expect Miss Liang to be not only narrow-minded, but also so vicious."
"Then Miss Liu is wrong. Not only am I not annoyed or angry, I am very happy to cancel the engagement. I, Liang Qianhuan, would not want such an unfaithful and gigolo aficionado, even if he becomes a high-ranking official. Since Miss Liu likes the trash I don't want anymore, just pick it up and take it home." Qianhuan responded with disdain and a smile.
Jiang Xiucai was standing aside, looking at Qianhuan's beautiful smile and confident appearance. He felt that Liang Qianhuan was becoming more and more beautiful, as if her whole temperament had changed.
In the past, she always revolved around him, looking timid and submissive. He really couldn't believe that she stopped disliking him so quickly. She must be forcing herself to smile.
He let Liu Yingying pick on Qianhuan without stopping her.
"Then you are jealous because your family background and talent are not as good as mine, so you deliberately slander me in front of everyone."
"Ms. Liu, my family background is not as good as yours. After all, not everyone has such a good fate as Miss Liu to be born into a wealthy family. Everything I have is earned by myself. A young lady like Miss Liu, who has never done housework, probably can't survive without her parents. People like you only make me despise you. Moreover, in the future I will definitely be richer than Miss Liu's family, so I don't need to be jealous of you at all." Qianhuan said these words with a confident expression on her face.
She added, "As for talent, I am angry at my stupidity. I really can't see what talent Miss Liu has."
"Haha, Miss Liang is so arrogant that she even said that she will be richer than our Liu family in the future. Did you know that our Liu family has more than 300 acres of land and five shops for rent in the town? Miss Liang is not afraid of getting her tongue tangled when she brags."
When everyone heard that the Liu family had so much land and shops, they were immediately envious.
Jiang Lin and his mother were also secretly happy in their hearts. The Liu family only had one daughter, Liu Yingying. When Mr. Liu and his wife passed away, all these things would belong to their Jiang family.
"I don't need Miss Liu to believe in me, I just need to believe in myself. Miss Liu has found her ideal husband today, I am very happy for you. I just want to have a good meal now, can you please not disturb me while I am enjoying the food?" Qianhuan asked with a smile.
"You are very happy? Who would believe that? I'm afraid you are just forcing yourself to smile. After all, today is Jiang Lang and my engagement day." Liu Yingying didn't believe that she really didn't care.
"Miss Liu, you are worrying too much. I am really happy. How do you want me to express my happiness?" Qianhuan just wanted to have a good meal. It was really annoying that this girl from the Liu family kept pestering her.
She continued impatiently, "Then I wish Miss Liu and Mr. Jiang a happy marriage, a long life together, a long lasting love, and a happy life with each other. I still have to enjoy the food, so I won't chat with Miss Liu any longer."
Seeing her like this, Liu Yingying felt that she had made herself look foolish, so she stopped pestering her.
After eating and drinking to their heart's content, there were still a lot of delicious dishes left, and Qianhuan even deliberately packed up a lot of meat dishes.
Liu Yingying laughed and said, "She is indeed a country girl who has never seen the world. She looks so poor and she even packs up the food after the banquet."
The other villagers who were packing up leftovers were suddenly embarrassed. This girl from the Liu family was too arrogant. She thought she was so great just because she was rich that she actually called them poor.
Qianhuan said, "Saving food is a traditional virtue of our Dayuan country. Miss Liu said that we look poor when we pack our bags, but we scolded the villagers. Miss Liu, be careful not to arouse public anger. You haven't married into the Jiang family yet, and it's not a good idea to offend the villagers now."
Liu Yingying was immediately speechless. She smiled and said to everyone, "I'm not scolding you. Just pack up. If it's not enough, there's still a lot in the kitchen."
Qianhuan immediately threw away the leftovers she had just packed and ran to the kitchen to pack up the meat dishes that had never been touched. Those were the meat dishes that Jiang Lin's mother had specially reserved for her.
Seeing her like this, Liu Yingying immediately scolded her, "Who told you to go to the kitchen to pack? Come out quickly."
"Didn't you, Miss Liu, tell us to go into the kitchen and pack up? Folks, come in quickly. The chicken, duck, fish and meat left in the kitchen have not been touched by chopsticks."
Upon hearing this, everyone rushed to the kitchen. By the time Jiang Lin's mother came over, all the dishes had been divided up by everyone.
Jiang Lin's mother cursed: "Which bastard asked you to come to the kitchen to pack the food?"
Qianhuan immediately pointed at Liu Yingying, who was looking grim, and said with a smile, "It's Miss Liu. If she says it's not enough, just let us go to the kitchen to pack it up. Don't you agree?"
"Yes, yes, it was Miss Liu who asked us to come to the kitchen to pack up."
Miss Liu was already unhappy when Jiang Lin's mother called her a bastard, but who would have thought that Liang Qianhuan would even dare to complain to her future mother-in-law.
Seeing that it was Miss Liu who asked everyone to go to the kitchen, Jiang Linniang could only blame herself for her bad luck. However, she still felt very sad and could only curse inwardly: This young lady from a wealthy family really doesn't know how to live.
When Qianhuan was carrying the packed meat and vegetables and preparing to go home with her parents, Xu Tingting suddenly ran over and said to her in a low voice, "Qianhuan, I'm sorry. I did say bad things about you in front of everyone before."
"It's okay, I know." Yunfeng Village is not that big, Qianhuan knows exactly what people said about her behind her back.
"Then aren't you angry? Won't you scold me?" Xu Tingting had originally prepared herself to be scolded by her, but she didn't expect that she would just respond to her with a bland remark so nonchalantly.
"What's wrong with being angry? Who doesn't have people talking behind their backs? The mouth is on someone else's body, and I can't sew their mouth shut. Instead of caring about what others say and look at me, I might as well live my own life. I have the time to get angry and curse at people, so I might as well save my energy and do more work to earn a few more coins to take home."
Qianhuan continued, "Besides, slander itself is a form of admiration. Those excellent people are busy making themselves better, and the strong are also busy becoming stronger. They have no time to gossip about others behind their backs. The more people slander me, the more it means that I have done something right to make them unhappy."
After saying that, Qianhuan went home with her parents, leaving Xu Tingting standing there stiffly.
Xu Tingting didn't expect Qianhuan to reveal the truth in just one sentence. She couldn't help feeling a little ashamed.
Yes, slander itself is a kind of admiration, because Qianhuan is outstanding in appearance, and because Jiang Lin's mother chose Qianhuan to get engaged to Jiang Lin instead of herself, so she was jealous, so she slandered Qianhuan in front of the villagers.
It was not until this moment that Xu Tingting realized that Liang Qianhuan was not a pretty fool at all, and the difference between her and her was never in appearance.
Even if she had a more beautiful appearance than her, she would probably never be as good as her in character. She had to admit that she was better than her.
Qianhuan enjoyed the meal very much. She came with nothing, ate and drank to her heart's content, and returned with a full load. The key was that she could still talk back to people.
Seeing that their daughter seemed to be unaffected at all, Liang Laoer and Liu finally put their worries to rest. It seemed that their daughter had really thought it through.
