Chapter 498: Chapter 498 Waiting for Luhe to Return
Propose marriage?
To Qiao Changshun?
Qiao Xiaomai let out a cold scoff, “Don’t bother yourself with that, my mom just went out to work and make money. Who are you planning to make a marriage proposal to?”
“My place is not welcome to you, leave.”
The Sun Family was taken aback.
What?
Go find Zhuang Lühe?
Her eyes widened into large circles, her face filled with disbelief, “That shameful woman who abandoned her husband and child, why on earth would you seek her out?”
“My mother went out for work, stay out of her business. Get out, we don’t welcome you here!” Qiao Xiaomai’s face covered with frost.
Zhuang Lühe’s story has always been that she went out to work, and this has never changed.
When Zhuang Lühe comes back, the villagers will surely gossip. By that time, she will use these four words ‘went out to work’ to shut everyone’s mouth.
Anyway, since no one has seen Zhuang Lühe run away, her mother just went out to work. She will not tolerate anyone making wild guesses about her in front of her.
Now, the Sun Family was making such claims right in front of her.
She spotted a large broom for sweeping the yard at the entrance of the shed. She walked over in a few steps, picked up the broom and said, “Are you leaving or not?!”
The broom was made of bamboo, about three or four meters long. Only the bamboo sticks remained as all the bamboo leaves had fallen off. The Sun Family had once beaten Zhuang Lühe with this kind of broom, leaving her neck and face covered in bloody welts.
Seeing the broom, the Sun Family couldn’t help but recall the old days. Upon seeing Qiao Xiaomai pick up the broom, she stood up reflexively.
But she didn’t leave, instead she walked over and stood behind Qiao Changshun.
She let Qiao Changshun shield her, only half of her body was exposed, her face wore an ‘I mean well’ expression, and she said, “Xiaomai, we all know what your mother has been doing. Over the years, your father, you, and Dami have not wronged her in any way. And yet, she just abandoned you all to elope with another man, do you really want to find her and bring her back?!”
“Stop your nonsense! My mom went out to work! We’ve severed ties with you and you still smear her name. Sun Family, are you deliberately trying to make us miserable?” Qiao Xiaomai, holding the big broom, stomped against Qiao Changshun, her small face filled with rage, “Dad, get out of the way!”
At this point, Qiao Changshun had already recovered his senses. Gazing at the furious Qiao Xiaomai, he instinctively spread his arms out in a blocking gesture, “Xiaomai, don’t do anything silly.”
“Who’s acting stupid?!” Seeing that Qiao Changshun was actually protecting the Sun Family, Xiaomai, who was pretending to be angry initially, was genuinely mad now. She raised her voice, “Did you hear what she was talking about? Do you really want to propose marriage?!”
“Where did my mom wrong you over these years? It’s you who failed to protect her! She’s just gone out to work, but you let the Sun Family slander her name?!”
Truth be told, over the years, Zhuang Lühe hasn’t done anything wrong to Qiao Changshun.
Even if she eloped with another man, Qiao Changshun had no right to criticize her.
The only person she had wronged was Qiao Dami and Xiaomai. As a mother, she left when her two children needed her the most. This was a scar that could never be erased in their lifetime.
Upon hearing Xiaomai’s words, Qiao Changshun quickly shook his head, “No, she’s old, if you lash out on her and something happens, what would you do?”
“I also have no intention of proposing marriage!”
After he finished speaking, he turned to look at the Sun Family, “Mother, you should go home, I will wait for Luhe to return.”
Upon hearing this, the Sun Family couldn’t help but jab him with her finger, cursing loudly, “You idiot! She has been tainted by men. The green hat you’re wearing is even greener than the leaves on the willow tree in your yard! You’re lucky that such a woman hasn’t been thrown into a pigsty, and you still want to continue living with her? Has your brain been kicked by a donkey?!”
