Female Supporting Character Transmigrates into a Book: Sir, Let’s Get Married - Chapter 37

Chapter 37: Are You Worthy?

Thinking about this, Lin Yi’s impression of Widow Guo immediately dropped. She sneered and said, “Auntie Guo, right? I’ve heard your name a long time ago, but it seems like we haven’t been in contact with your family for a long time. Please don’t stare at people in the future. It’s very rude, understand?”

Auntie Guo? Widow Guo almost died of anger when Lin Yi called her Auntie Guo!

She was only 29 years old, and Lin Yi was calling her auntie!

Widow Guo was so angry that her voluptuous chest was trembling. After she calmed down, she forced a smile and reached out to touch Lin Yi’s face. “Look at what you are saying. Wei Luan has to call me Sister-in-Law when he sees me. How can you be so rude? I only looked at you because I was admiring you. After all, who doesn’t like to look at beauties, right? Unfortunately, despite your beauty, did you have to marry Wei Luan?”

Lin Yi slapped Widow Guo’s hand away. “What’s wrong with marrying Wei Luan?”

“Wei Luan is an honest man. Even if you betray him, he will only suffer in silence. Don’t you agree?”

“What nonsense are you talking about?”

“Am I talking nonsense?” Widow Guo covered her mouth and laughed. “Everyone knows you jumped into the river for the sake of Jing Yan. To be honest, I really don’t understand why you would do such a stupid thing for a man at such a young age. Could it be that the two of you have already slept together? Is that why you wanted to kill yourself?”

There were many women washing clothes around. When they heard Widow Guo’s words, they were all shocked.

Lin Yi had never seen a woman as shameless and vicious as Widow Guo. In this day and age, reputation was very important to women. Widow Guo had slandered her in front of so many people. If she did not explain herself clearly, she would not be able to raise her head in the village anymore!

“This is called slander, do you understand? When the educated youths were sent to build villages, the government promised to protect our rights and interests. If you dare to spout nonsense again, I’ll take you to see the village chief directly. When the time comes, let’s go to the county government office and have a nice long chat, okay? Do you know what kind of crime it is to slander educated youths?”

Lin Yi sounded very aggressive. Widow Guo had not seen much of the world, so she panicked the moment she heard the words “county government” and “crime”. The smug smile on her face stiffened, and she hurriedly said, “I’m not slandering you. Don’t talk nonsense!”

Widow Guo had already said it, but Widow Guo still insisted that she did not slander her.

Lin Yi sneered as she turned around and said to the women around her, “Everyone heard what Widow Guo said about me. I am a pure and innocent woman. How can I be insulted by such a person? If my man hears her disgusting words, how can I stay married to him? If I have to inform the county government about this, please serve as witnesses that Widow Guo insulted my reputation in public today!”

Widow Guo usually had a bad reputation in the village. Many women were worried that she would seduce their men. They had long disliked Widow Guo.

Now that Lin Yi and Widow Guo were arguing, the women in the village naturally supported Lin Yi even more.

Even though Lin Yi had a bad reputation, she was still better than Widow Guo!

“Lin Yi, don’t worry. We’ll be your witnesses!”

“Widow Guo, it’s one thing for you to break the rules all the time, but Lin Yi is an educated youth from the city, and her two brothers are in the army. How dare you slander her? You’re done for!”

…

Widow Guo’s face turned paler and paler. She gritted her teeth and glared at Lin Yi.

“Lin Yi, you win! But don’t pretend to be innocent. You and I are the same kind of people. Don’t think that I can’t tell that you’re a flirt!”

Lin Yi was shocked by Widow Guo’s shamelessness. Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly heard Wei Luan’s angry voice, “How dare you compare yourself to Lin Yi?”

Lin Yi was stunned. She turned around and saw Wei Luan walking towards her. “Wei Luan, why are you here?”

Wei Luan pulled Lin Yi behind him and stared at Widow Guo with a pair of cold eyes. “Brother Chang is really unlucky to have married a vicious woman like you!”

Widow Guo did not expect Wei Luan to come over. She originally thought that Wei Luan and Lin Yi did not have a good relationship. When Wei Luan came over and pulled Lin Yi behind him protectively, his anxiety and concerned expression deeply hurt Widow Guo.

She had also been doted on by a man. She knew very well what kind of expression a man would have when he loved a woman deeply.
