Chapter 39 I'm Not Going To School
"Mom, it seems that they are really going to drive us out of the D Village. Where will we go if we leave here? Wade still has to go to school, so we have to think about him."
Lucy was worried. If they left here, they would have no place to live.
"Idiot, our ancestors and three generations live here, how can they drive you out so easily? Look at you. Before the fire starts, you have already been scared to death."
Sue looked at her daughter-in-law with disdain. There was no way for them to frighten her.
"Sue, did you see that?"
Horace glanced at Sue and asked.
"What should I look at?"
"People are angry, don't you see how much the villagers hate the Tang family and want you to leave?"
Horace said, patting his hands.
"If you don't like me, just leave the D Village. I didn't stop them. Anyway, I will live here until I was buried in the dust and dirt. If you force me to leave, you are force me to end my life."
The public anger was nothing in her eyes. She just wanted to make a scene and no one dare to laid a finger on her.
"You..."
He could never reason with the shrewish and unreasonable woman.
"What a shrewish woman!"
"Even if they don't leave this village, I'm afraid that they would stir things up again." Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
The villagers were very discontented with Sue's behavior. More importantly, Sue had offended everyone because she swore at the villagers.
"Mom, please get up. We should go home."
Lucy and the other people of the Tang family tried to stop her.
"That's right, grandma. You look ugly."
Maggie, her granddaughter, also couldn't help standing out and saying.
"You little girl, if it weren't for me, you would lead a poor life."
Sue was angry and ignored them at all.
"Sue, don't be so unreasonable. We have been neighbors for so many years, did it mean nothing to you!"
Sue was lying on the ground, unwilling to get up.
"Mr. Horace, what do you want? Are you trying to kick us out?"
Sue replied calmly.
"We don't want to drive you out. You have aroused public anger by what you have done. Not only do you abuse Celia and her mother, but also spread rumors everywhere. If I keep people like you in the village, won't the whole village be turned into a mess? You will ruin everything in this village."
Horace was speechless. However, he could neither beat nor scold her.
"I am just a woman. How can I ruin the village? Mr. Horace, you really flatter me."
Sue suddenly burst into laughter. She was shameless about her behavior.
"Celia, what if she refuses to leave our house?"
Wendy had been exploiting by Sue ever since she was in the Tang family. So she was kind of scared.
"Mother, don't worry. She is a scoundrel now, and everyone in the village knows that. We have done nothing wrong for her. Now she has offended the whole village. We will wait and see what she will do. What's more, mother, someone will deal with her soon."
Celia had her own plan. At that time, Wade would be home from school. Firewood room was the only place he could go if he wanted to go home.
"Who can deal with her?"
Sue could do whatever she wanted in Tang family, and everyone was scared.
"Just wait and see."
Celia was very satisfied with the result. The real face of Sue was revealed to the villagers. And she finally cleaned herself. This was the best result that she could get. Even though Sue behaved shamelessly, there was no threat to Celia at all. She was an onlooker now. She just wanted to see what happened and how the farce would end. She had to go back to collecting the eggs after the show.
So at this time, Horace was put into a dilemma. He couldn't drive Sue away. As a village head, he couldn't resort to force.
"Grandma, what are you doing here?"
While they were having a hard time, Wade walked past firewood room after school.
"Wade, tell your grandma not to make a fool of herself here. Just leave Celia and Wendy alone."
"Wade, you go to school and learn a lot. It's time to teach your family members to behave themselves. It's really sad for a family to have such a bunch of shrewish women!"
When Wade walked closer to the crowd, another woman dragged his hands and said.
"Hey, our college student is back?"
A relieved smile finally appeared on Sue's chubby face when she saw that it was Wade who came back from school.
"Stay away from my grandson. Don't mislead him."
Sue favored Wade the mots in Tang family. She is sure that Wade would go to a college later, leave this poor place and lead her family to live a good life. She had saved money for Wade so as to wait for this day to come.
"Grandma, what are you doing on the ground? And did the aunts tell the truth? Did you bully Celia and Wendy?"
Wade didn't seem happy. He just questioned her.
"You, we are a family!"
Even so, Sue was reluctant to scold her grandson.
"Celia is also my family. Please stop bullying them."
"Wade, what are you talking about? Apologize to your grandma now!"
Lucy scolded her son when she saw this. 'What are you talking about? You embarrassed me!' she thought.
"Mom, did I say something wrong? Do you really think that I don't know anything? Don't think that I don't know why they moved out!"
Wade was the only child who still went to school in the Tang family. He was the apple of their eye. They never let Wade know what was going on in the family. But now, he had grown up. They couldn't keep things from him anymore.
"Wade, shut up!"
Lucy said in a louder voice.
"That's enough, Lucy. Don't talk to my grandson in such a loud voice."
Sue felt sorry for her dearest grandson. Wade was her life.
"Mom, look at him! How could he help an outsider? That ungrateful little boy..."
How could he help others to blame them.
"I was just stating the truth! Grandma, wake up. It's so embarrassing. If the news came to the school, all my classmates will laugh at me and look down upon me. If this is all about the money, I can quit school!"
Wade said.
"Wade, what did you say? You can't drop out of school. I'll get up, grandma will get up right away!"
