She would find herself in trouble if she spilled the beans to anyone.
But she overheard their conversation.
They were talking about Shao Dalang's injuries.
It was not an accident. Land Officer Ding made this happen just to flatter Widow Sun.
Widow Sun kept cursing the first section of the Shao Family, especially Ms. Fang, Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan. She cursed at them so fiercely as if they were her worst enemies.
Widow Son kept blaming the Land Officer for not being able to do this well. She said that he should have ruined Shao Dalang's legs, rather than leave him any chance to recover.
Widow Sun hated them so deeply. She wanted to take revenge upon Shao
Yunduan and Qiao Xuan, but she had no chance with one of them being the Cultivated Talent and the other the daughter of the County Magistrate.
She did not dare to offend them, after all.
But she did not want the first section of the family to have a good time. So, she had eyes upon the most down-to-earth man in the family, Shao Dalang.
As long as everything turned messy in the first section of the Shao Family, she would be really pleased.
When she heard that Shao Dalang had been hit on the legs and passed out, and that his legs might get ruined, Widow Sun felt so pleased.
But soon the pleasure was gone after one day.
Hence, she became really furious.
Seeing Land Officer Ding, she started to complain.
Land Officer Ding had intended to visit her the day before, but she did not open the door. Still, he caught her when she came to the vegetable garden today by pretending as if he were passing by, after seeing that no one was around.
Ms. Yan accidentally ran into this conversation.
Ms.Yan did not even have the strength to get up until they two left.
She wondered what on earth was the grudge between Widow Sun and the first section of the family that she hated them so much. She wondered if she should reveal this secret.
If she kept the secret, she would feel very uncomfortable in heart but if she told the first section of the family about it, she would be doing them a huge favor, which she did not want to waste so easily.
She had no evidence. Nor did she want to get involved with this thing.
She was a newcomer and if she was involved, her reputation might be ruined.
After thinking for a long while, Ms. Yan finally decided to tell Qiao Xuan about it first.
She believed that Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan were calm people who would know what to do with this matter properly.
If she told this to Ms. Fang and Ms. Xu, Ms. Yan would not be able to imagine what might happen.
Qiao Xuan was shocked.
"Are… are you sure, Second Sister-in-law? For real?"
Widow Sun had never had a good reputation, and Qiao Xuan heard some gossip about her too. But Qiao Xuan never believed those groundless rumors.
Widows were always the topic of gossip for some people.
But Widow Sun was over the top!
Ms. Yan felt relieved after telling her. She nodded. "I am not mistaken. I saw through the cracks. It was them!"
She felt fury arising inside her heart.
"'l'nat IS disgusting!"
"Fifth Sister-in-law, please calm down." Ms. Yan felt her heart throbbing. "Fifth Sister-in-law, should you speak with Fifth Brother about this first? Don't tell Eldest Aunt right now. She might..
She might rush into Widow Sun and the Land Officer's homes to make a fuss about it.
If that happened, things would get worse.
Qiao Xuan took a deep breath. "Second Sister-in-law, don't worry. I will talk about this with my husband first, and we will never tell anyone else, including Mom, about it. We have no evidence at the moment, after all..
