Wu Jiali's Mouth (part 1)

While enjoying themselves, eating and resting, they suddenly heard an annoying voice not far from them. "Ah~ Look at how shameless gers nowadays. Shamelessly sending food to unmarried men, also eating together. Who would want to marry a cheap ger like that".

Wenmin turned towards the sound and saw an unfamiliar ger with a few other married women and gers around him. By the looks of it, that ger either knows him or likes to pick faults with people. Wenmin understands that people in this era are much more strict regarding relationships between unmarried people, but the words are malicious.

That ger didn't look much older than himself, but Wenmin hadn't seen him before. "Winwin, that's Wu Jiali. He is someone who married into the family of Jiahao's uncle. Don't bother with him. He likes to spread rumours and say bad things about people." Xinyi explained briefly and pulled Wenmin near him.

Jiahao expressionlessly stared at Wu Jiali; one of the gers noticed the stare and tugged on Jiali's shirt. He pointed at Chen Jiahao timidly. When Wu Jiali finally looked at him, he felt his legs weaken. How can someone younger than her have such a murderous stare? He felt his body going cold just from looking at Jiahao.

"Wu Jiali, if you can't see other people being happy, then why don't you just shut up and pamper your husband ah?" Chen Jiahao said while chewing on his food. He rarely talks with people but dislikes when people bother him during his resting time.

Watching his cousin-in-law pick fights with his future husband annoys him. Considering Wenmin's reaction and Xinyi's explanation, Wenmin still needs to integrate with the other villagers. Thus, he doesn't know who Wu Jiali is.

The people around the area heard what he said and snickered. Who doesn't know about Chen Jiahao's pampered cousin, Chen Haoran. He rarely does any work, even his mother was reluctant to let him do any farm work. She was raising him as if he were a prince and such, eventually marrying a woman with a vicious mouth, like his mother.

Wenmin had never met anyone with a sharp tongue like Wu Jiali when he was still in his world. His classmates were pretty mild and never said anything that could hurt someone. So this is the first time that Wenmin has encountered such a situation.

Wenmin only smiled at Wu Jiali and continued to speak with Xinyi. Aunt Bao said, "Tut tut, Wu Jiali. What does our family's Li Wenmin have anything to do with you? At least he can make his own money. Do you think your in-laws are any better? Bah! Looking at them makes anyone in this village want to stay away!"

Don't think that Aunt Bao is nice to Wenmin, she can't fight. She and Wenmin's Ama has been through thick and think together. "Wenmin, Jiahao. Please don't listen to him. Do what you think is best for you and leave the rest to your Aunt ah! Even if your parents are long gone, you still have Uncle Yichen and me."

Wu Jiali has been listening to them speaking about him. How can he stay calm with the people in the field snickering and acting like they're watching a fun show? "Hey, Jiahao! You're lucky that your parents are dead, ah! Good for you, If it weren't for your aunt and uncle, you wouldn't be able to have what you have now!"

When Wenmin heard that, it felt like this Wu Jiali had crossed the line. No matter what time, disrespecting dead people has been taboo in every culture, especially for an Asian like him.

"Excuse me, I don't know who you are and what relationship you have with Chen Jiahao. You can't disrespect someone else's parents like that. It shows that you have no virtue and knowledge in your head. Our Jiahao may be an orphan, but his parents blessed him with so many things that he can still live and be healthy until now. Please don't make so much noise, you are disturbing the elderly in this village and scaring the kids. Plus, you are shaming the Chen family's name in the presence of the village head."

Wenmin calmly yet firmly put him in his place. He glanced at the village head, walking near them with a sour face. He knew that if he didn't stop this ger, things would escalate, putting Chen Jiahao in the wrong position. The least he could do was be rational and stay as calm as possible.

Uncle Yichen heard everything from when Wu Jiali said terrible things about Li Wenmin until he called Chen Jiahao an orphan. 'How dare this ger call his nephew an orphan?!' is written on his face. "Wu Jiali! You better go back to Chen Haoran before I tell them about your lousy mouth! You have no right to criticise Chen Jiahao! You go back and take care of your 'poor' husband."

Looking at how bad things have gotten, the village head might inform this incident to the Chen family elders and Chen Haoran's parents to control their ger. It isn't enough to have a foul mouth, and now he's even talking about the deceased.

I'm back! How's Christmas everyone? I've been spending a lot of time with my cats and family. Hope you are having a good holiday too. Happy New Year to all my readers. Thank you for your love, dedication and support ^^ May you be happy and healthy in 2023 too!
