Chapter 700: Chapter 700: Should I go and call Brother He over for you?

The onlookers had no idea what was going on, but people have a tendency to sympathize with the underdog. Seeing Wang Erfeng crying so hard and also having lost a son, everyone instinctively sided with her, thinking Shen Mianmian was a little vixen who caused the death of someone else’s son. Some of the aunties began pointing fingers at Shen Mianmian and even cursed her nastily.

"This young lady looks so gentle and quiet, I didn’t expect her to be such a person. I can’t shop here anymore."

"At such a young age, she’s so malicious. I wonder which family raised such a daughter."

"I’m never shopping at this store again. I’m afraid I might choke to death on the food."

The watching aunties didn’t bother to suppress their voices, and Shen Mianmian heard every word clearly. Wang Erfeng, hearing these words, revealed a victorious smile in her eyes.

Even if her son’s death wasn’t caused by Shen Mianmian, Shen Mianmian couldn’t shirk responsibility entirely. If it weren’t for Shen Mianmian, the seductress, her eldest son wouldn’t have gone to jail and wouldn’t have become so desperate.

Thinking of her eldest son, Wang Erfeng was genuinely heartbroken and cried even louder.

At the time, she had never expected her eldest son to actually dare to drink pesticide; otherwise, she wouldn’t have deliberately provoked him, hoping her son wouldn’t hate her from the underworld – if he were to hate someone, let it be Shen Mianmian.

"Mianmian..."

Hearing the crowd’s curses, Xiaocui panicked. Things couldn’t go on like this.

Zhang Qian was also scared and said, "Mianmian, shall I go call Brother He for you?"

"No need," Shen Mianmian replied softly before looking calmly at Wang Erfeng and said loudly, "Just because someone cries, doesn’t make them right. Didn’t your son just get out of jail for attempted rape? He tried to assault me, and I resisted him. Is that wrong?"

No matter the era, being labeled a rapist is a deeply despised crime. At her words, the crowd’s chatter abruptly ceased.

So this is the mother of a rapist?

Most of the onlookers were women who naturally loathed such a person. In an instant, public opinion shifted back in favor of Shen Mianmian.

"So her son is a rapist."

"Ah! We’ve been deceived by her."

"These are crocodile tears!"

"This vegetable shop has been open for over a year, and I’ve always shopped here. These three young ladies are nice; surely it was her son who coveted their beauty and wealth and deliberately targeted them."

"Almost deceived by her, so good at spinning lies. No wonder she raised a son who’s a rapist."

Wang Erfeng hadn’t expected that, just moments ago, everyone was on her side, but in an instant, they were all siding with Shen Mianmian again.

She no longer cared about crying, dusted off the dirt on her buttocks, stood up from the ground, and pointed at Shen Mianmian, saying, "My son was framed by you; he did nothing. You little vixen, after failing to seduce my son because we own a house in the city, you spread rumors. I’ll kill you."

She lunged to hit Shen Mianmian but was nimbly dodged, and Xiaocui quickly stepped in front of Shen Mianmian.

Shen Mianmian said calmly, "If your son did nothing, why would the police lock him up? Your son has been showing up at the front of the shop every Saturday; I believe many of the aunties here buying vegetables have seen him, right?"

"You know, now that you mention it, it seems like every Saturday afternoon, there was a lame man with an ugly face who came here," blurted out one auntie.
