As soon as these words were spoken, not only did Lin Wanning fall silent, but all the Lin family members were plunged into silence.
Lin Bingwen walked up to Lin Wanning, let out a deep sigh, and said, "Little sister, stop talking so much to her. She won't understand."
"One can't be taught by others, but only by experiences."
Lin Wanning shook her head. Indeed! A person's true nature was there. Trying to change it was just wishful thinking. "Forget it. Since you don't wish me well, I don't need to be polite to you anymore."
She had actually wanted to give Liu Xiaohui a chance, but since she didn't take it, Lin Wanning walked straight up to the team leader.
With tears in her eyes and a wronged look on her face, she looked at the team leader. "After this incident, I really dare not be kind to my family's Little Yellow anymore."
After saying that, a line of tears instantly streamed down Lin Wanning's face. "If this matter isn't properly handled, who would dare to be kind to Little Yellow in the future?"
To outsiders, there seemed to be nothing wrong with these words, but to the locals, they were extremely terrifying.
"Girl, girl, don't talk. Don't talk nonsense. We will definitely give you an explanation for this matter. You just need to wait patiently."
The villagers also quickly echoed the team leader. "Yes, yes. We can't just rely on empty words. The people they accused are fine, but we've suffered irreversible harm, right?"
"Exactly. Those who spread rumors just by opening their mouths must be punished."
"..."
With Lin Wanning's subtle instigation, the scene became restless again.
The team leader knew that oral education would surely have little effect. As the leader of the team, he had to show the right attitude.
Even though feudal superstitions were being cracked down on, the status of the Yellow Fairy in the hearts of Northeast people was unshakable.
Moreover, Song Shuyao and Song Chunlan always caused trouble for the Lin family. The team leader clearly felt that they were subtly trying to frame Lin Wanning.
If he, the team leader, didn't come out to uphold justice at this moment, when would he?
"Lin Wanning, don't be anxious. Since these people slandered you, they must apologize. We're not willing to just let it go like this."
After hearing the team leader's words, all the villagers nodded. Mainly, who would dare to slander the Yellow Fairy? That would surely bring bad luck.
When everyone saw the Yellow Fairy sitting on Lin Wanning's shoulder, they immediately shouted at Song Shuyao. "Song family, you can't just spread rumors with empty words and then walk away."
"Yes, because of your words, we've all slandered the Yellow Fairy. You'll just leave later, but we'll have to stay here and suffer the consequences, right?"
Everyone was also extremely angry as they looked at Song Shuyao. Lin Wanning folded her arms across her chest, raised her eyebrows slightly, and looked at Song Shuyao with a smug look in her eyes.
It was impossible for them to just leave without giving some compensation.
The once high - spirited Song Shuyao was now like an eggplant beaten by frost. She hid behind Song Chunlan and was almost trembling.
However, with the current situation, Lin Wanning didn't need to be aggressive. All the villagers would help her achieve this.
After all, no one wanted to suffer bad luck.
"Song Shuyao, this time you slandered Lin Wanning and the Yellow Fairy. We don't ask for much else. You should take five chickens to the Lin family to apologize."
"And you, Liu Xiaohui. You've already separated from the family, but you still made such a mess. You should also take five chickens to apologize."
The team leader said extremely seriously.
All the villagers knew that these chickens weren't really for Lin Wanning. It was clearly a subtle way to curry favor with the Yellow Fairy.
Lin Wanning actually understood this in her heart. If the weasel hadn't come to her rescue, she wouldn't be in the upper hand now. So she was very willing to accept this. She could give five chickens to the weasel and still get five for herself.
Why not?
All the people present expressed their agreement.
Lin Wanning frowned slightly, pretending to be sad. "Alright. Since the Yellow Fairy likes to eat them, I'll give them all to it."
These words really hit the nail on the head with all the villagers. At this moment, everyone thought that Lin Wanning was reasonable.
So everyone's eyes immediately turned to Song Shuyao and Liu Xiaohui, waiting for their reactions.
When Song Shuyao heard that she had to pay for five chickens, she almost fainted. Now that she was divorced and living with her child in her natal family, the property she got from the divorce had already been squandered.
She hadn't managed to latch onto the rich and powerful Zhou Huaian yet. Where could she get the money to buy five chickens?
As for Liu Xiaohui, she was surely reluctant to pay. But Lin Bingwen knew very well that Liu Xiaohui had gone too far. She was clearly pushing his sister to the brink.
He walked up to Lin Wanning, took out twenty yuan without hesitation, and stuffed it directly into Lin Wanning's hand.
"Sorry. It's my fault, big brother." Lin Bingwen said almost choking with sobs. After saying that, he left without even looking at Liu Xiaohui.
No matter how much Liu Xiaohui cursed behind him, he pretended not to hear.
Song Shuyao, who was standing still on the spot, almost fainted when she saw Lin Bingwen give the money. She secretly cursed in her heart, "This damned Liu Xiaohui can't even control her own man. She might as well be dead."
"Song Shuyao, Liu Xiaohui has already compensated. You can't renege on your debt, right? If you do, we'll just deduct it from your uncle - in - law's work points."
The team leader looked at Song Shuyao extremely seriously with an unshakable attitude, which scared Song Chunlan so much that her legs went weak.
Song Chunlan was already struggling to make ends meet. If they deducted more work points, wouldn't her whole family starve to death?
She quickly grabbed Song Shuyao's hand and even looked at Song Shuyao with a crying voice. "Yaoyao, why don't we just pay to avoid trouble? Your aunt still has to stay here."
Song Chunlan clearly understood the seriousness of this incident. If Song Shuyao didn't show a certain attitude, their family would surely become the target of public criticism in the village in the future.
"Auntie, are you still my auntie? Haven't our family given you enough money? How could you be like this?"
Song Shuyao really didn't want to pay out of her own pocket, which made Song Chunlan so anxious that she stamped her feet and cried.
Seeing this, Lin Wanning just smiled and said nothing. She just thought that this was what they deserved. After all, neither of them was a good person. Let them torture each other.
Moreover, Lin Wanning knew that Song Shuyao stayed here just to get at her.
Thinking of this, Lin Wanning looked at Song Shuyao with cold eyes and directly stretched out her hand towards her. "Are you going to give the money or the chickens?"
