Chapter 91: 91 Using his own way to treat himself (one update)
Su Xiaofeng, carrying a basket of vegetables from the field, returned home in clean clothes and looking spirited. Seeing the crowd gathered at the entrance of the village and not understanding what had happened, she approached with confusion, "Are you looking for me?"
Everyone turned around in unison, and there, standing before them with a smile as sweet as a peach blossom and dimples playing at the corners of her mouth, was Su Xiaofeng herself.
So, here came the question, if Su Xiaofeng was standing right here, then who was the woman who had been involved with Liu An?
Hu Xiulan, looking at Su Xiaofeng before her, was just as puzzled.
She had just heard from Ma Donghua that it was Su Xiaofeng who had been in trouble.
The only thought in her head was how Su Xiaofeng could be here when she was supposed to be disheveled somewhere inside.
Here was Su Xiaofeng, so who was the woman inside?
"It’s not Xiaofeng." Someone who recognized the woman inside remarked, "She looks more like Taozi."
Upon hearing this, Hu Xiulan exploded, "Speak sensibly! My Taozi went to the fields to pick vegetables; how could it possibly be my Taozi?"
Upon closer inspection, the disheveled woman covering her face, too ashamed to show her face, was none other than her daughter.
Hu Xiulan’s head spun in confusion. How on earth had the victim turned out to be Taozi?
Hearing Hu Xiulan’s words, everyone took a step back. No one present was blind; surely, they couldn’t have mistaken the identity.
Liu Datou was also bewildered the moment Su Xiaofeng appeared.
The woman who had been involved with Anzi was not Su Xiaofeng, but Su Xiaotao.
Wasn’t it said that it was Su Xiaofeng? How had it become Su Xiaotao? His eyes met Liu An’s unfazed demeanor, and slowly, his heart settled down.
Indeed, compared to marrying Su Xiaofeng, it would be more advantageous to marry Su Xiaotao.
At least Su Xiaotao didn’t have a child in her belly. Thinking this, Liu Datou also kept his silence. With so many of Lihua Village’s residents watching, he was curious to see how they would respond.
Staggering over to Su Xiaotao, Hu Xiulan called out uncertainly, "Taozi?"
Upon hearing her mother’s voice, Su Xiaotao froze before letting go of her covered face. With a ’wa’ she burst into tears, "Mom, it was this scoundrel; he bullied me, mom."
Clenching her teeth and with eyes red as blood, Hu Xiulan glared at Liu An, "You scoundrel, how dare you bully my daughter; I’m going to fight you to the death."
Liu An stood his ground, unhurried. He calmly brushed back a lock of hair, and with a face resembling a monkey’s, he spoke lightly, "Auntie, that’s not the way the story goes. People say it takes two hands to clap. Don’t forget, this is Lihua Village. If she didn’t want it, what could I possibly do to her?"
All she had to do was scream, and the whole village would be alerted.
"It’s not like that..." Su Taozi, looking desperate with eyes reddened, couldn’t find the words to explain her current predicament, trapped between wounded pride and resentment.
She remembered Su Xiaofeng being carried out by her and the elder; she had lain right there, covered with firewood. Then she heard a noise and was about to leave when she felt a pain at the back of her neck and lost consciousness.
When she awoke next, it was the pain that roused her.
The searing pain made her come to her senses completely, and the first thing she saw upon opening her eyes was Liu An—
She tried to scream, but the man covered her mouth, preventing any sound from escaping.
Her scream came after the ordeal was over, born out of fear.
In a mix of confusion, anger, and bewilderment, she couldn’t help but let out a sharp scream.
"Mom, it’s not like that." Su Xiaotao threw herself into Hu Xiulan’s arms, but before she could embrace her, Hu Xiulan had already raised her hand and slapped her square across the face.
There was a crisp, resounding slap.
That slap left Su Xiaotao stunned.
Why would her mom hit her? She...
Raising her head with tears clouding her vision, she looked at Hu Xiulan, feeling fear in her heart. Would her mother...?
"I’ve told you before not to hang around Su Xiaofeng so much, but you wouldn’t listen. You never learn anything good, only the bad."
As Su Xiaotao’s senses slowly returned, she thought, yes, it was Su Xiaofeng’s fault.
"Right, it was Xiaofeng." Su Taozi said, as if finding a source of strength, "She’s always held a grudge against me, claiming I had gone to the hillside to find Liu An last time. So this time, she found Liu An early and knocked me unconscious, all to let Liu An take advantage of me."
Thinking of this, Su Xiaotao turned around, "Fellow villagers, look at my neck, there are red marks still, this is evidence that Liu An knocked me out."
Hu Xiulan looked over, but saw no red marks.
"Taozi, there are no red marks," Su Xiaofeng craned her neck for a look, and she had been careful about how hard she hit, "Look, everyone, look for yourself, see where it is."
Su Xiaotao didn’t want to believe it, "Impossible, someone clearly knocked me out."
"Oh my," Liu Da Tou stepped forward a few steps, sounding just like he did a few days ago, "Taozi, about what happened between you and Anzi, everyone has seen it, let’s talk now about how to deal with this matter."
What was happening now was not important, what mattered was how this matter was going to be dealt with.
Su Xiaofeng glanced at Ma Donghua, who had been confused ever since Su Xiaofeng appeared in front of everyone.
At this moment, as Su Xiaofeng’s gaze shot towards her like daggers, she, with nowhere to hide, stepped forward with a forced laugh, "Is there even a need to deal with this matter? Just let the two of them get married and that will be the end of it."
Not having caught Xiaofeng with Liu An, the matter had nothing to do with Xiaofeng.
"Look, there are still rational people in the village," Liu Da Tou was very satisfied with Ma Donghua stepping forward, it seemed the red envelope he gave before was not in vain, "Since it has happened, and it has been blown up, it’s not good for either side, especially not for the woman, it’s even more unsightly. My opinion is to let the two of them get married, what’s your opinion?"
Liu Da Tou’s last sentence was naturally addressed to Hu Xiulan.
Su Xiaotao kept shaking her head at Hu Xiulan, "Mom, don’t..."
How could things have turned out like this? Su Xiaofeng had obviously fainted, right beside her; how could it be that when she woke up, it had become her?
No, something was definitely wrong somewhere.
Realizing this, she looked angrily at Su Xiaofeng, "Su Xiaofeng, your heart is so poisonous. Last time what happened with Liu An had nothing to do with me, why would you scheme against me like this?"
Su Xiaofeng looked confused, "Taozi, what are you talking about? I don’t understand a word. This morning when I got up, my uncle came to my house to ask me to go to his place for chicken soup, and after the soup, I went out to pick vegetables. When would I have had the time to scheme against you?"
"It was you," Su Xiaotao, having lost all reason, "You clearly passed out, asleep right here, how could it turn out to be me who was asleep here, and have been... by a hoodlum."
She didn’t want to live anymore, how could it have come to this.
Su Xiaofeng narrowed her eyes, "What do you mean ’passed out’? What do you mean ’asleep right here’? Taozi, what are you talking about? Could it be that in your eyes, if something were to happen to me today, or if Liu An bullied me, that would be proper?"
Everyone else was also confused by their words, what was all this about?
Could the real story be that Taozi and Liu An intended to scheme against Xiaofeng, but by some mistake, Taozi herself became the victim?
The more one thought about it, the more fantastical it seemed.
"It should have been you in the first place," Su Xiaotao gritted her teeth, "You know what kind of person you are, yet you still pretend to be chaste, truly thinking you’re some pure maiden."
Su Xiaofeng nodded as if it were a serious matter, "So Taozi, the person Liu An wanted to knock out was me, but instead he knocked you out, and then he knocked you out and took advantage of you, is that it?"
With Xiaofeng putting it like that, everyone began to understand.
So that was it, Su Taozi and Liu An had teamed up to scheme against Xiaofeng again, but Liu An had mistakenly knocked out Taozi, and then took advantage of the situation and... her.
Hearing Su Xiaofeng’s twisted words, Su Xiaotao felt so angry she almost choked on her own blood, not knowing whether to swallow or spit.
It wasn’t like that, it wasn’t like that at all.
While the others didn’t understand, Ma Donghua and Su Zongming certainly did, and Ma Donghua stepped forward with a chuckle, "Liu An, tell us, were you trying to scheme against my Xiaofeng and instead ended up setting your sights on someone else’s Taozi?"
"Su Xiaofeng is carrying somebody else’s child, and it’s not mine. Why would I bother scheming against Su Xiaofeng?" Liu An flicked his hair, thinking himself suave.
Su Xiaofeng’s lips curled up slightly, it seemed Liu An wasn’t completely without redeeming qualities, look now, didn’t he answer well?
Taozi looked at Liu An in disbelief, he, he—.
"Since it was not Liu An wanting to scheme against Xiaofeng, it must be that Liu An and Taozi took a liking to each other," a villager, having listened for a while, managed to make some sense of it.
Listening to the villagers’ cacophony of distasteful comments, Hu Xiulan put her hands on her hips, "My daughter Taozi just got a boyfriend, and look how you all marvel at it. Have none of you ever seen anyone in bed before?"
When Su Xiaotao heard her mother’s words, the only thought in her mind was, it’s not like that.
