C20 Gossip

Life was slowly going on. Ever since they had taken over the job at the restaurant, the Lin Clan could be considered to have a stable monthly income.

In addition, Lin Jinyan had a good harvest from time to time. At a good time, she would be able to earn thirty silver taels a month.

Mu Yun also felt that it was not bad to just continue living like this.

On this day, the sunlight was just right.

Mu Yun was washing Lin Jinyan's clothes by the river.

When it was just the beginning of autumn, Mu Yun was completely lazy under the sun.

In the beginning, Mu Yun wasn't used to washing clothes in the river either. Not to mention how many germs were in the water, just looking at the yellow and orange color made her feel that the clothes definitely wouldn't be clean and would itch.

However, in the end, she still lost to the backward ancient environment. After washing up a few more times, she slowly accepted it.

Furthermore, the clothes that he had washed with the soap horn had a very natural taste to it.

It was neither stinky nor fragrant. She really liked it.

"Clang!"

Not long after, a peasant woman threw a large pot of clothes at her side.

Although Mu Yun was shocked by her, she didn't feel abnormal and continued to wash her clothes seriously.

The woman didn't even look at Mu Yun. She cleared her throat, trying to attract Mu Yun's attention.

Only then did Mu Yun react. She glanced at him.

Mu Yun was stunned for a moment by the "Hurry up and talk to me" expression.

"Are you from around here?" Mu Yun asked kindly.

"I'm from the neighboring village of Hill." The woman's face was full of arrogance as she sized up Mu Yun and said, "Are you from the east side of the city?"

"Yes." Mu Yun felt that this woman's attitude wasn't good, so she didn't look at her anymore, and only replied with her mouth.

"Have you heard of the Lin Clan in the East District of the city?" the woman asked.

"Yes." Mu Yun's attitude was cold.

"The one where all the kids depend on their eldest son." The woman didn't seem to notice Mu Yun's impatience as she continued to talk, "That's a good son. He's tall and strong, so he should be able to work pretty well. Do you know him? "

"He's my husband."

She should be glad to hear someone praise her husband. However, Mu Yun felt that this woman's attitude was strange. She always brought up the topic of Lin Jinyan, so she didn't have any thoughts of dealing with it and directly explained.

The woman looked her up and down again.

"You little girl, only your face can be seen. Your breasts are small, and your buttocks are small. You don't seem to be able to have children. How did you find such a good husband like Lin Jinyan?"

Mu Yun felt that this woman was here to cause trouble. In order to not get into trouble, she picked up her washed shirt, turned around, and left.

The woman was still shouting behind her, mocking her for her luck and doubting her character.

Mu Yun sneered and pretended not to hear him.

He had thought that this would be the end of the matter, but within a few days, rumors from Hill Village had reached the eastern part of the city.

"Aiya, have you heard of that Lin Family's daughter-in-law?"

"Why haven't I heard of it? That's the daughter-in-law they picked up." Originally, he was discovered by the An clan's Yuan clan. I heard that she was dressed well when she was found. What brocade silk, and there was even the mark of a big family hidden on the corner of her clothes? "

"Aiyo, hey, this isn't a concubine from another family."

"Aiya, if it isn't a concubine, could it be a servant girl? Which family of maidservants could dress so well? Not a concubine? Could it be that you, our matriarch, have lost your matriarch at home? "

"Who knows where the chicken came from! Those foxes and spirits, didn't they all dress up in fancy attire? "

With such a small change in the rumors, when it reached the ears of the Huang family, it became:

"Is your Lin Family's wife not clean? People in Hill Village say you robbed someone who didn't care to come in the house. " The woman who was picking vegetables together at the entrance said to Mrs. Huang.

"Who told you that?" Huang Clan was greatly shocked.

Seeing the expression on Madam Huang's face, the woman thought that she had hit the nail on the head. She immediately said earnestly:

"Aiya, old sister, I know you've been worrying a lot about Jinyan's marriage. "But you can't just casually give them to the people in Jinyan's room …"

"This... Nonsense! "Who taught this!?" Mrs Huang interrupted him and asked seriously.

"I... I heard from a few of my sisters that it's from Hill Village! "

At that time, the Huang family took their goods and let Lin Lang take care of the house. Then, he and his neighbors went to look for those rumored sisters.

"It would be better if Jin Yan didn't get cuckolded!"

From far away, Madam Huang heard a few people sitting at the door chattering about family matters. What they were talking about was also about Mu Yun.

"Don't speak empty words, our family's Muyun is the best girl! Don't you dare spread such alarmist stories again. "

Mrs Huang immediately went to find an explanation.

"Haha? If she was a good girl, why was it that even after missing for so long, no one from the town came to find her? I'm afraid that she touched the matriarch of a wealthy family and was thrown away. She was picked up by your family just in time! "

Someone mocked.

"I know Mu Yun's character, she's definitely not the person you're talking about." The Huang family hurriedly tried to defend themselves, but she couldn't say what was so important about it.

"To know the face and not the heart, who knows if the way she faces you is the same as the way she faces others?" Someone cleverly spoke back, "Besides, even if she is such a good girl, what does it have to do with her provoking the Matriarch? No matter how good a lady is, she would still want to live in wealth, right? "

"You're right. It is highly probable that he would fall into the trap of seducing the clan head, and end up like that. He can only marry into the Lin Clan. Your Lin Family is truly pitiful, taking away their broken shoes for use. "

When Madam Huang thought of Muyun's arrival, she obviously didn't know anything. She was a very clean and beautiful person, so why was it that it wasn't arranged by these people?

However, she could only say that she felt Mu Yun. Others didn't believe her, but she had no other choice.

Mrs Huang stood among the crowd, anxious and angry, her eyes red.

Her family's Mu Yun was such a good girl, why didn't everyone believe it!
