Trying to act smart —-1

But no matter how smart Peng Jing was, she was ought to be caught when her son went to gather the cow dung of the livestock raised by the Yu Family, Lang Ru caught sight of him but she did not stop him as she could see that the mer was not living a good life with his tattered clothes and sickly pallor but once she and Yu Mai returned home, Lang Ru did not waste another minute in telling Yu Dong what happened at the grazing fields. 

Of course, everyone heard her as well. 

Once Lang Ru was done speaking Chen Mi heavily placed his sewing materials on the table and snapped unhappily, "I know Peng Jing all right, she is a good-for-nothing woman. Ever since his wife got richer and our life became better that woman started to spread all sorts of rumours about us. She is not a mer but her habits of gossiping are the same as those mers who like to talk bad about others."
