Chapter 39 Absolutely Not Because I'm Afraid of Him

"No, Mother and the others are just upset, they'll be fine in a bit," Fu Hanwen said lightly.

It was soybean harvest time, and many people heard Qin Qingsheng crying earlier. When Qingsheng's Mother rushed to the field and started berating, her words suggested, either overtly or subtly, that Qin Xiaoruo was being unchaste and seducing her son. Lady Guan and some others from the Fu Family heard Qingsheng's Mother berating Qin Xiaoruo while they were on their way home. Lady Guan argued with her, and if it weren't for the villagers holding them back, the two would have come to blows.

"The rumors being spread must be pretty awful then," Qin Xiaoruo sighed.

This was truly an undeserved calamity for her.

Fu Hanwen's deep gaze fixed firmly on her, "If one's character is upright, fear not a crooked shadow; there's no need to heed the idle chatter outside."
