Chapter 1470: Twisting the Truth and Spitting the Denture
What Yun Jian said caused the neighbors who were watching to blink their eyes.
The moment she said that, Lu Lanhua sprawled on the ground and yelled unreasonably, “Justice! Does justice still prevail?! She’s. .h.i.tting even her own grandmother! It’s too much! Too much! Folks, be the judge!”
Lu Lanhua hit her own thighs and cried like a homeless person but as she did, she recounted the tale in exaggeration while intentionally skipping her mistreatment to Yun Jian and Qin Yirou.
“Her father’s legs are no good now! But look at them! The mother remarries a military man and lives happily now! The daughter beats her own grandmother up and chases her out! Is justice dead? Where’s the police? Where’ve they gone to? Call them so they can be the judge of this!”
“All of you are ganging up on an old lady like me! You’re bullying an old, frail woman like me! T-This is outrageous!”
Lu Lanhua cried louder and more dramatically seeing more of Qin Yirou’s neighbors were gathering around.
Those who did not know better actually thought that Qin Yirou left Yun Gang after his legs were crippled to marry Ge Junjian who was rich while Yun Jian was stopping her own grandmother from visiting them.
Before Yun Jian could explain, what Lu Lanhua said had already stirred comments and criticism from the crowd.
“Tsk, I didn’t expect Ge Junjian’s current wife to be a woman like this. I heard that Ge Junjian’s stayed single for years after his divorce and he’s gotten married again suddenly. The new wife already has a family of her own and I heard that she comes from the backward village town.”
“Tsch! I think Officer Ge must’ve been tricked into marrying her. She must be a loose woman herself! Abandoning her handicapped husband, even! A woman like this should be drowned!”
“Right? I didn’t know Qin Yirou’s someone like that! She was decent when she greeted us last time but… we really can’t judge a book by its cover!”
...
Gossipers were ever present whether it was in the village or city, and they would always be there gossiping whenever something happened in a household. During this era, people despised women who left their husband for another man be it in the village or city.
What Lu Lanhua said was completely a twist of the truth. She was making it certain that Yun Jian and Qin Yirou would never get to get rid of her and Yun Gang!
Did her granddaughter think that she could really kick her off after she had started a company and gotten rich? Please, they were related by blood!
Moreover, Yun Gang’s legs were broken not too long ago and they could not even afford the hospital fee. Lu Lanhua thought that she would kick up a fuss and ruin Yun Jian and Qin Yirou’s reputation if Yun Jian refused to pay her.

People at this time regarded their reputation highly. With Lu Lanhua crying and wailing and hitting her own thigh sitting on the ground, the crowd bought into her lies. No one saw that Yun Jian’s expression was increasingly darker.
Si Yi did not follow her out since he knew that she could resolve a petty matter like this on her own. Ge Junjian was cooking in the kitchen, so he had no idea what was going on either.
Yun Yi was the only one standing next to Yun Jian because the only people who could speak about this were the two of them.
Lu Lanhua who saw that the crowd was on her side rambled on more excitedly. Yun Jian was in no hurry to speak as she watched with her arms crossed.
By the time Lu Lanhua was done crying about her sufferings that had never happened, Yun Jian spoke up icily, “Are you done?”
The impa.s.sive question ran a shudder through Lu Lanhua but she felt that Yun Jian would not dare do a thing to her when there were so many people around, so she retorted, “Impossible. A wh*re like your mother who abandons her own husband… She…”
Lu Lanhua was doing this because she thought that Yun Jian would find the commotion she caused detrimental to her reputation and would give her some money to stop her from saying more since she was rich now.
However, Yun Jian stepped forward and slapped Lu Lanhua right as she said that, sending the latter to the ground and causing her to spit her denture.
The power in that slap nearly deformed Lu Lanhua’s face!
The crowd was baffled, not expecting this from Yun Jian.
