Rebirth: Back To 1990s novel Chapter 38

Horace invited Lucy, to the firewood room, followed by people from the Tang family.

She had long heard that most of the villagers gathered in front of Wendy's door, probably more lively than when they were setting off firecrackers in the Spring Festival. She would teach them a lesson.

"Mr. Horace, what's wrong?"

She glanced at Wendy who was crying and then glanced at Celia with disgust. She then went straight to Horace. If Horace wanted her to help Wendy and Celia, she would never do that.

"Tell her."

Said Horace, glaring at those talkative women. As a man, he was too embarrassed to say it.

"Lucy, didn't you say that your niece was a loose woman and eloped with Mr. Sharon?"

"Yes. You also said that Celia seduced him just because of his college education background and his money."

"You also said that Andy helped Wendy in the firewood room just because there we're having an affair. Is that what you said to us?"

The women were outraged, because these rumors were going to screw them up.

"You said it yourself. Why did you drag me in?"

At this time, Lucy tried to deny it.

"Yes, why did you put the blame on my wife? Besides, they had some self-respect, such rumors would not spread widely."

Sue said. Lucy is her eldest daughter-in-law, and Sue liked her a lot. What's more, Lucy's son was still studying in school, so she preferred Lucy more.

"You old lady, if you dare to speak ill of my sister and nephew again, I will punch you!"

Zack couldn't bear Sue any more. He had never seen such a mean woman like her. No matter how she disliked Celia, Celia was her granddaughter.

"Come on, you'd better punch me on the head. You murderer, do you think I'm afraid of you?"

Sue's words sounded like a shrew. She didn't show an ounce of fear.

"You old thing..."

The anger on Zack was aroused. He raised his fist, which was grabbed by Celia at once. "Uncle, it is not worth it. The village head and the others are watching."

She believed that if Zack hit her, this old witch would do anything to hurt her.

"Sue, how could you say such words? Celia is your granddaughter. How could you tarnish the reputation of your granddaughter?"

Horace was annoyed by Sue as he witnessed how she humiliated her own granddaughter.

"Mr. Horace, don't be fooled by them. I lost my son because of the two of them. And they keep seducing other men. They are not part of our family anymore."

Sue's words were full of malice. She was even disgusted with Wendy and Celia.

"Grandma, you just lost a son, my mother lost a husband, and I lost a father. If you thought about it, we would be more miserable. We had already left the Tang family. Why did you destroy our reputation and drive us away?"

Celia finally broke out.

Sue looked ferociously at the surrounding villagers and cursed.

"How dare you, old lady!"

"You are so rude. I don't understand why is a mean woman like you living in our village."

The villagers were irritated by Sue's words. They just wanted to speak for justice, but now they were cursed.

"Who is indecent? They are all from countryside, we are all the same kind of people. You are not better than me in any way."

Sue yelled.

"Mr. Horace, I never thought that there would be such an ignorant woman in your village. No wonder that your village is ranked first among the poor villages."

Looking at what the Tang family had done and what they had said, Sharon said bitterly. It was not until then that he knew Celia had grown up in such a family. She was lucky to have a chance to survive. What's more, she had a righteous view of life and worked so hard to earn a living. Sharon admired her more.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Sharon. Most villagers in our village are honest and kind. You can rest assured that I will handle this matter well."

He didn't expect that Sue would act like this in public.

"Mr. Horace, such a cruel and mean woman is supposed to be driven out of our village."

"Yes, drive them out of the D Village."

Sue's behavior had completely aroused public indignation.
