Ma Guihua ran out of salt at home, so she covered her face with a piece of floral cloth, carried a basket, and went to Fang's grocery store to buy salt.
In fact, there was a small shop selling salt in the alley where she lived, but the owner of Fang's grocery store was a pervert and had taken advantage of her. If she bought salt from him, he would give her a cheaper price.
Walking on the busy street, I saw a large crowd of people gathered in front of me.
Then I heard what the people who were running towards the crowd were saying: "The right lady is beating the widow who seduces a man!"
She wanted to see who was more unlucky than her, but she was caught by the headdress lady that day.
She was also beaten by a vixen in the alley a few days ago, and her face was scratched to pieces, so that now she has to cover her face with a flower cloth before going out.
Before Ma Guilan squeezed into the crowd, she heard someone say whether she recognized him or not. If he revealed his identity, he would be given one hundred taels of silver. If he told the man his name and who was in his family, he would be given another five hundred taels of silver.
The onlookers were excited. She, who was short of money, also worked hard to squeeze into the crowd. What she needed most was money. If she knew the person there and asked, she could get a hundred taels.
It's silver.
"Don't crowd."
"Why squeeze?"
Ma Gui spent a lot of effort and finally squeezed to the front, and then he was stunned.
He pulled the sleeve of the person next to him, pointed at the young woman standing in front of a woman in a coarse cloth dress with her back to her, and asked: "Is that the lady who seduces the widow of a man?"
This lady is so good-looking and has such a good temperament, why does her man go out to seduce a widow?
Tsk tsk, as expected, some men in this world, no matter whether their wives at home are virtuous or not, good-looking or not, they all like to have sex with others outside.
"No, the one on the ground is the upright lady. She is the seducing widow, and the one who was beaten is also the upright lady."
Ma Guihua felt a little dizzy after hearing this, and looked at the young and beautiful young woman with great sympathy. This man looked younger than her, so he was just as pitiful as her. Being a widow was really a pity.
She looked at the woman on the ground, and suddenly felt that the clothes the woman was wearing looked familiar, so she carried the basket in front of the woman.
After seeing the woman's bruised and swollen face, she was ecstatic and cried out excitedly.
"He Wuniang, she is He Wuniang."
One hundred taels, she already has one hundred taels of silver, no, no, it's not one hundred taels, it's six hundred taels. She even knows how many chickens He Wuniang has in her house. Don't tell her who her man is?
How many people are there in the family?
When He Wuniang heard someone calling her name, she looked up and saw Widow Ma covering her face with a floral cloth, and her expression suddenly changed.
Why is this prostitute here?
"You know her?"
Shen Wan looked at the woman whose face was covered with floral cloth and said.
Ma Guihua took a few steps forward, nodded and said, "I know her. Her name is He Wuniang. She is thirty-three this year. She lives in Hulu Lane in the back. Her natal family is in Hejiaao, twenty miles away from the city.
Her man's surname is Yang, and his name is Yang Wei. He is thirty-five this year, and he is a chicken seller. He has a son and a daughter. The son is fifteen years old and is studying in the Zhao family's private school. The daughter is thirteen years old. Last year, they were married to each other.
The two were sold to Chiang Kai-shek in the west of the city as concubines.
My mother and I have both died of illness, and we have a younger sister who was sold into the Ning family as a maid by her husband and her wife many years ago."
She didn't want to know too much about the Yang family's affairs, because Yang Wei, that damn man, would tell her every time he went to see her.
