Chapter 182 Discovery of Affair
Inside the room, a long, bloody claw mark clung to the bald man's face, his hair disheveled, making him look like a madman. Wu Hong leaned against the table, a large bump on her forehead.
She glared at the leper with hatred, as if she wanted to burn two holes in him.
These days, that damned man hasn't given her any money. When asked, he just says that his brother hasn't paid him back yet.
The food has been getting worse and worse. At first, there was some meat, but now it's all vegetables. Even the steamed buns are made of black flour. How could she possibly cook them?
The more I thought about it, the more suspicious it seemed. Could this bastard have taken the money and gone to a brothel?!
That's exactly what Wen Zhuzi is like! He spent all her dowry on those kinds of things! And in the end, she still had to pay for his medical treatment, otherwise why would the family be so poor?!
These two dead men are the same; they're both cheapskates who want to act big even when they have no money!
She even ignored the gossip in the village and came to find him!
She even considered divorcing Wen Zhuzi and living a good life with Lai Zi! At least she'd have food to eat and money to spend!
I thought she was still young and could have a child to take care of me in my old age! I never imagined this bastard would be so despicable!
In a fit of anger, she scratched the leper with her claws, and that damned man actually pushed her!
Lai Zi was furious. A few days ago, he had told this woman to sell her worthless goods for money, and what happened? She ran away and almost got him beaten up by the men from that big lord's mansion!
She's utterly useless at everything, and she eats everything! What's the point of having a woman like that? He wouldn't even be interested in playing around with her.
"Don't come looking for me again, I get annoyed just looking at you!"
"hiss!"
He gently touched the injured side of his face, and the pain almost made him jump up.
He glared at Wu Hong again, grabbed the wine jug from the table, and stormed out.
Wu Hong thought he was going to hit her with the wine jug, so she covered her head in fright.
"That bitch, she's infuriating..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lai Zi froze, because there were many people standing at his door, and not a single one of them was unfamiliar.
Everyone stared at him, and for a moment he opened his mouth but couldn't say anything.
"You scoundrel! Give me the money! You're going to use it for drinking again!"
Wu Hong roared as she came out of the house, and Lai Zi's face immediately turned ashen.
Wu Hong was stunned when she arrived at the gate of the courtyard. When did so many people start standing outside the gate?
How come she didn't hear anything when she was inside? Then everyone heard what she and Lai Zi were saying!
Whether she heard it or not is irrelevant now. So many eyes saw her come out of the leper's house. No one would believe there was nothing between them.
"Wu Hong! Lai Zi! You two are utterly shameless!"
The village chief's face flushed red. He couldn't believe that the rumors circulating in the village lately were actually true! Wu Hong really was involved with Lai Zi!
What kind of nonsense is this? A married woman got involved with a bachelor in the village! If word got out in other villages, wouldn't they become a laughingstock?!
Wu Hong took a step back and hurriedly explained, "Village...Village Chief! It's not what you think, I..."
"I'm just here to get my money back from Lai Zi! Yes! He... he owes me money and hasn't paid it back!"
Seeing everyone's disbelief, Wu Hong anxiously shouted at Lai Zi, "Isn't that right?! Don't you owe me money?!"
Lai Zi got angry, glared at her, and yelled, "I owe you a leg! You shameless woman! You're clearly just freeloading off me!"
After finishing his sentence, Lai Zi threw away the empty wine jug, grabbed the village chief's leg, and began to cry, "Village chief, you don't know the truth!"
"This shameless woman seduced me, and I thought I should refuse her because of Brother Wen! Who would have thought she would climb into my bed like that!"
"She's still eating my food, drinking my drinks, and spending my money! You have to stand up for me!"
"Poor me, a leper, without fathers or mothers..."
He pinched his thigh hard and managed to squeeze out a few tears, now sobbing uncontrollably.
Wu Hong's face turned red with anger. The villagers were watching; this damned man was actually trying to smear her reputation!
"Village chief! That's not how it happened! He was the one who harassed me first!"
"So you're admitting it's between you two?"
The village chief kicked Lai Zi away and stared at the two of them with a cold face.
In his eyes, neither of them was any good! One was unfaithful, and the other had no sense of propriety or shame!
"Go and call Wen Zhuzi here!"
He turned to Afu and said, "This is their family matter, and as the village chief, I'm too lazy to get involved."
He didn't care whether Wen Zhuzi beat or scolded Lai Zi, and he cared even less whether he divorced Wu Hong or divorced her.
Anyway, now that he's run into them, he can't let them continue to corrupt the village's morals!
Wu Hong rushed out and threw herself in front of the village chief, crying, "No, village chief! It was Lai Zi who found me! I...I..."
She tried to argue, but the village chief simply turned away from the two troublesome creatures, saying, "It takes two to tango! When Wen Laosan arrives, you'd better pray for yourselves!"
Fearing the two would escape, he ordered his men to tie up Wu Hong and Lai Zi. Even then, the two still couldn't resist arguing.
"It's all your fault, you damned man, that you dragged me into this mess! Drink, drink! I'll drink you to death!"
Wu Hong kept cursing Lai Zi, and Lai Zi didn't back down by cursing back.
"You slut! No wonder you can't have a son! You're a slut! You've probably been with other men all along!"
"Serves Wen Zhuzi right for being useless!"
"Who the hell can you call a 'little devil'?!"
Wen Zhuzi rushed over in a fit of rage, took off his shoes, and slapped Lai Zi's face twice.
He was still fast asleep at home when the village chief's son woke him up from his bed.
He asked what was wrong, but the kid kept his mouth shut and refused to say anything, instead just pulling him away.
I never expected to hear this bastard say I'm no good as soon as I got here! How can a man stand being told that by someone else?!
Seeing the two tied together, he understood without asking!
He was aware of the rumors circulating in the village; Wu Hong was actually capable of doing such a thing!
He slapped Lai Zi several more times, and finally, unable to contain his anger, kicked him.
Bound hand and foot, Lai Zi was unable to fight back and was beaten until he screamed and begged for mercy, "Stop hitting me, brother! Stop hitting me, brother! It's all sister-in-law's fault!"
"Brother, I have a short temper, and she insisted on seducing me!"
Wu Hong kept her head down when she saw Wen Zhuzi arrive, but when she heard Lai Zi's words, she suddenly raised her head to explain.
Wen Zhuzi, being impartial, took off his other shoe, stacked the two shoes together, and applied them to Wu Hong.
"You! How could you do something so shameless! I trusted you so much!"
He used to stand up and criticize those rumors, but now he's just a joke!
Wen Zhuzi was cuckolded!
"Tell me! How long have you two been together?!"
Seemingly exhausted from fighting, he stopped and asked Wu Hong, panting.
Think about when this woman started being away from home all the time?
It hasn't been long since Wen Youcai went mad!
Wen Zhuzi felt like the sky had fallen; he hadn't even noticed or suspected anything!
Wu Hong was beaten so badly that tears streamed down her face. So many people saw her come out of the leper's house, and she was powerless to defend herself. She had had enough.
"Let's get a divorce!" she shouted, glaring at Wen Zhuzi.
