Chapter 327: Kneeling and Begging, Overflowing with Hatred
Translator: Lonelytree
Compared to the jinx, the villagers sided more with Gu Sanniang and Ying Zi. In the eyes of the villagers, Ying Zi was a clever and lovely child.
At this moment, for some unknown reason, this child had accidentally offended this fearful nemesis and had no choice but to come early in the morning to kneel and apologize.
The sad look in Ying Zi’s eyes immediately stirred up many people’s pity.
“Ying ‘Er, get up first. Why must you kneel? This jinx is getting more and more impudent. She doesn’t even care about the village rules anymore.”
“That’s right. Yuelan, you’re acting ridiculous.”
“Why wouldn’t the heavens smite her and leave her to harm us instead?”
Everyone chimed in, criticizing Lin Yuelan for not following the rules and for being arrogant and unruly.
Suddenly, the door of the courtyard creaked.
When Lin Yuelan opened the gate, she saw a group of villagers outside.
However, when the villagers saw her open the door, they all ran away like frightened birds. They looked from a distance with fear on their faces. The indignation and anger they showed earlier were all gone.
A moment ago, the villagers angrily berated Lin Yuelan. But the next moment, they were like frightened birds.
This scene made Ying Zi so angry that her eyes were about to spit fire. She wanted to immediately scold these cowards. ‘Didn’t you say that you’d stand up for me? Why are you all hiding now?’
However, Ying Zi lost her father when she was a child. She grew up studying others. She was not stupid. She knew that once she said those words, she would offend almost everyone in the village. How would she survive in the village in the future?
Therefore, she had to endure it.
Ying Zi clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging deep into her palms. She tried her best to control her anger and took a deep breath. Then, she looked at Lin Yuelan, who had just come out. Ying Zi looked incredibly penitent.
Lin Yuelan raised her eyebrows and looked at Gu Sanniang and Ying Zi, who was kneeling in front of her door early in the morning.
The change of emotions in Ying Zi’s eyes had not escaped Lin Yuelan’s notice. She had a whole new level of respect for this twelve-year-old child.
She was only twelve years old, but she was able to control her emotions very well. he clearly wanted to explode with anger, but she held it in. Lin Yuelan didn’t think she could do that when she was only twelve. Unfortunately, she was not really twelve, but thirty-two.
So, how could a twelve-year-old child, like Ying Zi scheme against her? She had the golden finger after she was transmigrated to this world.
Lin Yuelan didn’t come out as soon as Ying Zi and her mother arrived and knelt because she wanted to see what the girl was up to.
Lin Yuelan wondered if Ying Zi was clever or dumb.
Ying Zi wanted to use the public to put pressure on Lin Yuelan. She was basically saying that Lin Yuelan had poisoned Ying Zi and her mother even though the latter had merely ‘accidentally’ offended Lin Yuelan. Everyone would feel indignant and side with them. Lin Yuelan would become more than a jinx. She would be labeled a narrow-minded and vicious person. In the end, she would be forced by public pressure to detoxify them.
