281 Argumen (1/2)

Although Xiao Luo went on cleaning on the second floor, the content of their conversation still went into his ears with not even a single letter being dropped. Regarding this, he only laughed it off. It couldn't set off even the slightest ripple in his heart. This was the way the older generation in the countryside thought. What's more, they were his uncles and aunties. He wouldn't bother to argue with them. As long as they were happy, he'd let them talk. However, his life belonged to him. It was up to him to decide how should he live it.

His grandmother felt sorry for him. When she saw the people wagging their tongues outside, she ran out and asked them to go away as far as they could and stop spouting gibberish at her door.

”If you're too bored, go and clear your fields. Stop talking nonsense at other people's doors. Aren't you afraid that the Heavens will punish you to become mutes for the rest of your life?”

”Dengfeng, we aren't talking badly about Xiao Luo,” the dark-skinned woman said with a face full of displeasure. ”We are just concerned about his most important affair in life. Is it really nice for you to curse us like that?”

”My grandson is a fine-looking man,” his grandmother said. ”He is also very capable in his career. You don't need to worry about his business!”

She was done with it. Her neighbors were constantly asking about whether her grandson, Xiao Luo, had a target of when he would get married and subsequently had some sarcastic remarks. This wasn't just concerning behavior. It was straight out mockery. These people were ridiculing Xiao Luo right in front of him. She was unable to tolerate any of it.

”Ye-ye-yeah, fine-looking he his, finer than everyone else,” the dark-skinned woman with a temper coldly said. ”But it turns out that he can't even find a wife.”

Everybody aside from Aunt Taoxiu revealed a smile of varying degrees on their faces. They yearned to watch a drama unfold. They were simply too bored. It just so happened that something like that could relieve them from their boredom and become a topic of discussion during their leisure time.

Xiao Luo's grandmother got so angry that her face turned red. She pointed at the dark-skinned woman and angrily said, ”An Yuan, you can't even discipline your own son. He drinks, gambles, goes whoring, and was even locked up in the police station a few times. What right do you have to talk about my grandson?”

When An Yuan, who had dark skin, heard that, she immediately fumed up. Her face became ashen. She looked even darker.

Incapable of marrying a granddaughter-in-law into our doors?

Xiao Luo's grandmother felt as wronged as she could have ever felt when such a label was being slammed upon her family.

”You vicious woman, you… You…”

His grandmother was so upset that her chest was thumping up and down. She was unable to breathe smoothly.

When Xiao Luo's grandfather saw this, he hurried forward and patted her back to straighten out her breathing. Although he didn't usually like to speak, now that his beloved wife was pissed off to such an extent, he couldn't just stand by. He shouted at An Yuan, ”Leave! Don't stand at our door! You are not welcome here!”

”Lianfa, be reasonable,” An Yuan dignifiedly said. ”We didn't say anything bad. We were only expressing our concern for Xiao Luo, and Dengfeng came out cursing at us. Tell me, what kind of logic is this?”

”Yeah, Uncle Lianfa, Aunt Dengfeng went overboard this time,” a scrawny middle-aged man echoed.

”Xiao Luo is our grandchild. There's no need for you to concern yourselves about him. If you simply gossip about him again, do not blame me for disowning you!” Although his grandfather was old, he still had a tough character.

An Yuan put her hands on her waist and sneered, ”Lianfa, that isn't a nice thing to say. After all, we Xiaos are one big family. If you put things so harshly, aren't you afraid that nobody will give you a hand if something were to happen to your family in the future?”

Xiao Luo's grandparents were no match to their sharp-mouthed opponent. They were both instantly defeated.

Aunt Taoxiu stepped forward and said, ”Alright, all of you should speak a few words less. All of these are trivial matters. Don't let them ruin the harmony between us.”
