Chapter 663: Personal Fashion Show

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The townsfolk conversed in hushed whispers, piecing together the past of Aunt Zhou, their words tinged with a hint of vindictive satisfaction. After all, it was the town mayor who had taken pity on her when she was alone and destitute, allowing her to stay in the town for convenience and support.

Yet, she had taken advantage of her relation to the mayor, bullying the townsfolk without restraint. Those who spoke now were all victims of her tyranny.

Some argued that Aunt Zhou was a pitiful figure, but they were quickly rebutted. “Pitiful?” someone scoffed. “Do you know how her husband and daughter died? They were driven to their deaths by her.”

“Isn’t there a saying that good people die young while the wicked live on? That’s exactly what Aunt Zhou is. What about her deserves pity?”

These words sparked a heated debate among the crowd. Amidst the clamor, Aunt Zhou was shoved around, falling to the ground multiple times.

It wasn’t until the mayor raised his voice that the crowd ceased their actions and closed their mouths. Aunt Zhou, disheveled and humiliated, finally understood that she could no longer antagonize the townsfolk, lest she be driven out of town.

Aunt Zhou decided to stop pondering over things she couldn’t understand. She hurriedly approached the townsfolk, apologizing to each one of them. “Boss Li, Aunt An, Aunt Yang, I was wrong. I deserve to die. I apologize for my actions. I promise to buy braised pork from you in the future. Please don’t ban me. I will reflect deeply on my actions. Please forgive me!”

Li Hua, the shop owner, exchanged glances with Aunt An and Aunt Yang. Clearly, they didn’t want to cause a scene in the shop.

Now that Aunt Zhou had caused such a commotion, attracting the mayor’s attention to Sister Hua’s Gourmet Shop, anyone who wished to cause trouble in the future would have to think twice.

As the shop owner, Li Hua responded to Aunt Zhou, “There’s nothing to forgive. We’ve always said that we will serve anyone who genuinely supports our business with utmost dedication. There’s nothing we can’t get past as long as we live in harmony.”

Even though Li Hua’s speech wasn’t particularly eloquent, the crowd cheered in agreement. Seeing this, Li Hua was outwardly calm but inwardly surprised. She had never imagined that she could become such an influential figure.

Li Hua would never forget that all of this was due to Gu Zi’s arrival. Gu Zi had helped her discover a different side of herself. Li Hua’s emotions shifted from surprise to joy, and then to longing. She missed Gu Zi, who was surely leading a better life in the city. She sincerely hoped so.

With the issue resolved, the shop returned to its normal buying order. Those who were previously afraid to queue for meat were now happily lining up. Everything seemed lively and joyful.

Li Hua felt that the recent events had been a blessing in disguise. Even though the shop was doing well before the incident, it was never as successful as it was now.

As for the mayor, he didn’t linger in the shop. He would have to come another day to support the business.

He was not like Aunt Zhou, who had the audacity to argue one moment and apologize humbly the next. He couldn’t pretend as if nothing had happened and continue to stay.

However, when he left, he took Aunt Zhou with him. Once they were outside, he sternly warned her, “You need to behave yourself from now on. After this incident, I won’t show you any favoritism. Understand?”

Aunt Zhou nodded repeatedly, not daring to say anything more. She feared that if she said another word, the mayor might take back her house, and she would have to return to the countryside to live in a thatched hut. That was something she couldn’t afford.

After the mayor left, Aunt Zhou didn’t return to the shop to buy braised pork. Instead, she decided to buy some eggs and fruits and visit the Lin family in Little Lin Village later to formally apologize for today’s incident. She knew she had to win their favor in the future, as it would surely bring her benefits.

Meanwhile, in the city, Gu Zi’s family had just finished lunch. Su Shen sat on the sofa with his three children, attentively admiring the personal fashion show presented by his wife, Gu Zi. The new clothes and dresses she wore, regardless of color or style, were perfectly showcased by her. Su Shen thought she was an excellent model!

Compared to Su Shen’s focus, Su Li’s eyes were filled with confusion as the show progressed. Of course, his mother was beautiful, and he loved seeing her in beautiful clothes. But could someone tell him how his mother’s personal fashion show had started?
