Chapter 393: Consequences
Mrs. Liu was so angry that she couldn’t speak, but Bai Zhi didn’t stop there: “You’ve caused us trouble again and again. Your tricks are endless. I’m afraid that even the actors in the opera, are not as capable as you. You can do different kinds of play without thinking too much. You can see in the eyes of the people in our village that they are very satisfied with it.”
The villagers could no longer hold their laughter.
Bai Zhi then looked at the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, who’s trembling in anger, and coldly said: “You don’t need to say another ten thousand words, isn’t your ultimate goal just to ask for money? I have money, and I’m not a stingy person. It’s not easy to make a living in this world. Whose family has no difficulty? I am willing to help people, I don’t have a stone heart.”
Bai Zhi leaned forward to lessen the distance between her and Old Lady Bai and Mrs. Liu.
“But I, Bai Zhi is not a fool. Not because someone is asking for money, I will just give it away. Especially to those people I have a grudge with. Even if they die from starvation in front of me, I will not give them even a sip of water.”
Old Lady Bai almost vomited blood. She pointed her finger to Bai Zhi’s nose, her finger was constantly trembling as she chokingly said: “You, you have no conscience, you white-eyed wolf. Our Bai family supported you for so many years, but you—”
Bai Zhi cut off her words by saying: “I am not here to argue with you whether you supported me or not. When you, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law killed me for 10 silver coins, I no longer have a relationship with you. I, the living Bai Zhi, is no longer the same Bai Zhi. I only have niang as my relative. And you are my enemies. I didn’t seek revenge to the both of you, you should feel happy about that. However, if you come again and made me unhappy, I, Bai Zhi will not just say cruel words just like today. If you dare to trouble me again, don’t blame for being rude.”
How can a 13-year-old girl, with a small and beautiful face, burst out words of anger, that only adults can do?
Old Lady Bai and Mrs. Liu were so scared of the sudden change on Bai Zhi’s face. To the point, that they completely forgot to ask for money and just took a few steps back.
The crowd also fell into silence. Who could have imagined that the little girl, who was always gentle and smiling, will have such a fierce side?
Fierce, it was not Bai Zhi’s style. She likes to convince people with reasonings. Every problem can be solved with kindness.
But here, she gradually realized that reasoning seemed to be the most impracticable way. Most of the people here eat the hard way but not the soft way. If you are weak or even took a step back, they will take that opportunity to step on you. They will push you to the corner and will not let you stand up again.
These words were not only for the evil women of the Bai family but also for the whole village. Only by doing this, the people who are secretly thinking bad ideas will change their minds.
Bai Zhi jumped out of the carriage and walked step by step closer to Old Lady Bai and Mrs. Liu, then said with a deep tone: “Remember, don’t try to provoke me again, or else, you will face the consequences!”
After that, she ignored the old lady and Mrs. Liu. She just turned around and walked back to the carriage: “Niang, you can come out.”
Zhao Lan and the others came out of the carriage. Awu also went down to unload the horse. Bai Zhi then led the crowd inside the house and didn’t look at the evil women of Bai Family again.
Zhao Lan said to Village Chief Li: “Village Chief, Zhi’er has something to discuss with you. Come in and have a seat.”
