54: Ten Copper Coins to Buy Soap

Ten Copper Coins to Buy Soap

"I'm so angry. It's so early in the morning. How unlucky."2

"I've told the heavens here that whoever lacks virtue, there will be payback to his or her family tenfold. Whoever does this will be cursed that he or she will have difficulties excreting feces for life!"

Mother Rong was so angry that her face turned green. She scolded for fifteen minutes.

The villagers didn't mind her coarse words. Instead, they clapped and laughed in satisfaction. This was because many people were also affected by the smell. Furthermore, doing such a thing was indeed immoral. Who in the village was so evil?

Someone even clapped loudly in agreement. "That's right! There will be retribution. The entire family will have difficulties excreting feces!"

Although they were not sure why they wanted to curse the other party to not be able to excrete feces as their punishment, everyone was still happy to scold them.

Mother Rong let out a deep breath but her anger had yet to subside. She looked down and entered the courtyard to help Ye Lulu clean up the dead rats. She could not let the smell get to Lulu and the babies.

She picked up a basket and picked up the dead rats, waiting to take revenge in the future.

Mother Rong usually did not get angry. Her temper was alright, but she would always take revenge. An eye for an eye!

Ye Lulu could also smell the stench. This matter could not be hidden. She asked Second sister-in-law Guan, who had come in to change the diapers, and Second sister-in-law told her about the matter.

Ye Lulu's expression changed. Not only did they throw dead rats over, but there were also some who didn't build walls in the village. That meant that anyone could go near the Guan family's courtyard. If someone really came over to do something bad, wouldn't she and the babies be in danger?

As a person from the modern era, not only did Ye Lulu place great importance on her privacy, but she also had high expectations for her personal safety.

Furthermore, there were obviously people with bad intentions now.

Ye Lulu looked uneasy. Second sister-in-law Guan thought she was frightened. After all, dead rats were disgusting. She quickly consoled her.

The news of Mother Rong's scoldings quickly spread to the end of the village. After all, many people smelled the stench and were discussing.

When Auntie Tian heard this, her expression immediately became odd. She kicked Tian Laoqi anxiously and gloomily. She could only let Tian Laoqi enter the city once and buy a piece of soap back for her to bathe in.

She had to wash away the smell on her body. Otherwise, everyone in the village would talk about this. As soon as they smelled the smell of dead rats on her, they would immediately catch that she was the one who did it.

Unable to persuade Auntie Tian, Tian Laoqi took a few copper coins and left for the city.

Farmers generally could not afford soap. Who would be so particular as to use ten copper coins and buy soap to wash their bodies? Therefore, Auntie Tian had suffered losses this time.

To the poor villagers, spending ten copper coins, which was a lot of money, for no reason was a big deal.

Tian Laoqi bought back the soap and also extorted three copper coins from Auntie Tian. He bought wine from a foreign merchant and drank it happily.

Auntie Tian used the soap to wash her body. She cursed in pain as she washed, but she finally washed away the smell on her body.

When they walked out of the village, Auntie Tian's eyebrows drooped and her expression was gloomy. She heard someone say, "… who in our village is so black-hearted as to throw dead rats into someone's house? I'm afraid that someone would also throw something at my house."

"Who do you think it is…"

"I can't think of who it was either. Who did the Guan family offend? Could it be that the Guan family has been eating too much meat recently and someone became jealous? Haha."

A small group of villagers laughed.

Auntie Tian was speechless. "…"

Upon seeing Auntie Tian's figure, a few odd looks landed on Auntie Tian. "Don't tell me… who has been arguing with the Guan family for the past few days? It seems that during the day yesterday, the Tian family's Tian Wa kicked up a fuss at the Guan family's door…"
