Chapter 45: Subduing People With Virtue

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After Su Li left the Sun residence, she went to the streets to buy a lot of things. First, she wanted to change everything in her house.

She was used to sleeping on a soft bed, but there was some straw under the bed she was sleeping on, so it was not very comfortable to sleep on.

She bought four quilts and three sets of bedsheets. She didn’t plan to keep the ones at home anymore. She didn’t know how many patches had been added to them, but they all seemed to affect the quality of her sleep. She definitely wouldn’t make do if she had the ability to buy them.

After these few days of perseverance, her weight had dropped from 180 catties to 150 catties. She could not wear the clothes she used to wear anymore. She had to buy a few new clothes back.

It was unrealistic to buy cloth to make. After all, she did not know how to make clothes. Even if she knew how to make clothes, she did not want to waste time on it.

Su Li found a ready-made clothing shop that looked pretty good and picked out a few more pleasing clothes.

She bought three sets. One was jade green, one was light yellow, and the other was peach red. Be it the color or the style of the clothes, they suited her very well.

Her skin was very fair, and she looked even fairer in these colors. Moreover, she looked especially thin, covering the fat on her body very well.

Su Li lowered her head and looked at the fat still hanging on her body. She couldn’t help but sigh. When could she lose all the fat on her body?

Sun Yuangui asked Sun Ming to send Su Li back. When Sun Ming saw Su Li buying things without any mercy, he was stunned.

He was almost starting to doubt himself now. Did she not need money to buy things?

Otherwise, why would Su Li not even blink when she bought things?!

Su Li went to the pastry shop to buy some pastries. He Qingyao and his brother loved to eat pastries. In addition, Chen Xiang had helped her take care of the children today. She had to buy something back.

Sun Ming looked at the pile of items that filled the carriage and couldn’t help but remind her, “Ms. Su, if you buy any more, you won’t be able to fit them all in the horse carriage!”

Su Li looked at the carriage that was filled with things. She didn’t seem to have bought many things. Why was it full so quickly?

“Then let’s go!” Su Li got into the car with the pastries.

When she arrived home, the people who had gone to the market in the morning had yet to return. There were only a few people chatting at the village entrance.

When they saw Su Li get out of the carriage, their eyes widened.

“Isn’t that He Yufeng’s wife? Why did she come back in a carriage?” “Don’t tell me she hooked up with some rich guy?”

“Pfft, how can someone like her hook up with rich people? Dream on!”

When Su Li saw them huddled together, she knew that there was definitely nothing good to say. However, she couldn’t be bothered if they didn’t run to her and say it.

Seeing that Su Li had a lot of things, Sun Ming took the initiative to say, “Ms.

Su, I’ll send you back!”

Su Li nodded and said, “Thank you.”

With someone helping her, she could save a lot of time and effort. Otherwise, she would have to make at least two or three trips. With Sun Ming’s help, they could move everything back.

When the people at the village entrance saw Su Li take down a large pile of things from the carriage, they were envious, jealous, and even gossiped again.

“Why did she buy so many things? Even if her family has a mine, they wouldn’t dare to buy so many things!”

“I heard that she had a lover before she married over. Perhaps this was given to her by her lover. If she spent her own money, do you think she would be willing to spend it?”

“From what you’re saying, that’s most likely the case. Otherwise, why would she suddenly buy so many things when she was living such a hard life in the past?”

“What do you mean by 80%? I think it’s 100%.”

“Did you guys notice? The two children she gave birth to don’t look like He Laosan at all. They might not be his biological children!”

“Aiyo, that Su Li is too bold! She’s making He Yufeng look so bad…”

Bang!

Then, there was a cry of pain.

“Who’s the one who hit me?”

“Of course it’s me!”

Su Li held a piece of mud in her hand, her face as cold as ice.

“Are you crazy?” Aunt Li was the one who spoke. She had a feud with Su Li last time.

The corners of Su Li’s lips curled up as she threw the mud in her hand at her again.

“I’m crazy, so if anyone makes me unhappy, I’ll make their entire family unhappy.”

Aunt Li put her hands on her hips and was about to start a fight with Su Li, but she did not forget to pull the person beside her along.

“Let’s teach her a lesson. Otherwise, she’ll really think that we’re pushovers!”

Su Li clenched her fists. “Alright, let’s have a taste of how powerful my fists are!”

Auntie Li rushed towards Su Li aggressively. The others stood rooted to the ground, looking like they were watching a show.

Su Li took out a sickle from the basket on her back. The sickle at home was broken, and she had just bought a new one today. She did not expect it to come in handy so quickly.

“What are you doing?” Auntie Li saw the sickle in Su Li’s hand and hurriedly stopped in her tracks.

Su Li sneered. “Aren’t you asking the obvious? Other than being able to work, the sickle has another use—that is to deal with the enemy!”

She had nothing. If she fought with Su Li like this, she would definitely lose.

“Fair? Seems interesting. I like to win people over with virtue.”

With that, Su Li placed the sickle in her hand back into the basket.

When Auntie Li saw Su Li put the sickle back, she smiled smugly in her heart and even scolded Su Li, “Big fool!”

If she had a sickle, she would definitely not put it back. She would definitely scare Su Li so much that she would kneel on the ground and beg for mercy.

Auntie Li was still in a daze when Su Li rushed over and threw her over her shoulder.

“Ouch, my old waist!” Auntie Li cried out in pain.

Su Li pressed down on Auntie Li and specially targeted places that others could not see or could not be seen.

Auntie Li was pressed down by Su Li and could not move. After all, with Su Li’s weight, it was simply a dream for her to flip over.

Sun Ming was stunned when he saw Su Li’s ruthlessness. He thought to himself that it was a good thing that he had not offended Su Li in any way. Otherwise, he would be the one getting beaten up now!

The villagers who were watching the show retreated one by one. They could not afford to provoke Su Li. Others used their mouths but not their hands, but she used her mouth and hands. Moreover, Su Li was very strong. Ordinary women could not defeat her!

All of them patted their chests and rejoiced. Fortunately, they did not rush over just now. Otherwise, they would be the ones getting beaten up now! Old He happened to pass by. When he saw Su Li riding on Auntie Li and even beating her up, his head kept buzzing.

“Su Li, what are you doing? Get up quickly!”

Su Li turned a deaf ear to Old He’s words. She punched Auntie Li again and warned her in a low voice.

“Shut your filthy mouth. If I hear any other unpleasant words, I’ll be the first to tear your mouth apart..”
