"You, what's wrong with you?"

Jiang Qingxue was also frightened, what kind of monster was she, was it necessary to scare her like this?

Sun Xinhan retreated to his own doorstep, his eyes quickly filled with mist, and he pressed himself against the door panel, speaking in a trembling voice:

"You, what do you want by coming here again?

I have such an ordinary appearance, why do you always have to pester me?"

Veins on Jiang Qingxue's forehead kept throbbing, she almost fainted on the spot, this was another mess left by the original owner!

"I didn't want to pester you, those are all things of the past, I just wanted to ask you how much this fish is."

Unfortunately, the other party didn't believe it, they didn't believe that she came to find him just for a fish, and even called their own parents.

When his parents saw Jiang Qingxue, they immediately became vigilant: "What are you here for again?

Let me tell you, don't think about bullying our family anymore, even if you can really come up with a few taels of silver, my son will never marry you!"

Sun Xinhan's mother angrily said.

Jiang Qingxue was also angry, she wanted to explain something, but didn't know how to say it, her face was filled with a dark cloud.

"I didn't want to marry him, I already have a husband, why would I marry him?"

Jiang Qingxue frowned and explained, looking at some people passing by and pointing at her, which made her even more headache.

"Aren't you planning to divorce your husband and marry my Han'er?

Let me tell you, it's impossible, even if you divorce your legal husband, I will not marry my son to a troublemaker like you, stop bothering my son!"

What the hell, the original owner wanted to divorce Lin Yuansheng and marry this short winter melon?

Even if Lin Yuansheng is not good, he has been married to her for many years, obedient and sensible. Moreover, Lin Yuansheng has a slender figure, which can be considered a handsome young man in modern times.

"Madam, you must have misunderstood. I didn't intend to bother your son, I just wanted to ask about the price of this fish."

"Well, if you say you're not bothering us, then why did you specifically come to our house to buy fish? There are so many households selling fish in the market." Sun Xinhan's mother pointed at Jiang Qingxue from a distance, as if she was ready to take action.

"Alright, alright, I won't buy it then. I never intended to bother you in the first place."

She felt very wronged, why did she have to dress like the background character in the original text and inherit this mess?

She really wasn't that kind of woman!

The other person didn't believe her, and their gaze became sharper, as if they were about to grab her and take her away.

She finally stopped trying to explain and turned to leave.

Anyway, no matter what she said, they wouldn't believe her.

As she walked on the road, she overheard two men whispering to each other, "Sun Xinhan is also in a miserable state. He usually helps his mother with work obediently, but unexpectedly, he caught the attention of Jiang Qingxue, that bully. She keeps bothering him all the time. She came again today, but I don't know why she left so early."

Jiang Qingxue finally knew that the young man earlier was named Sun Xinhan.

She silently remembered this name and vowed to keep her distance from him in the future.

Not long after walking, Jiang Qingxue actually saw a place selling fish. It was an old lady sitting on a small stool, facing the setting sun, calling out to passersby like a street vendor. There were still three or four fish in the basin, it seemed like they couldn't be sold out.

Jiang Qingxue remembered how she had been scolded by someone because of fish earlier, and she couldn't accept it. She walked towards the old lady.

"Grandma, I. . ."

She didn't finish her sentence because the other person was looking at her in fear.

Jiang Qingxue's face darkened, realizing that this was another person the original owner knew.

"What do you want again? Old lady, I don't have any money to give you. Even if you kill me, you won't get a single penny from me!"

The other person widened their eyes, but couldn't help but step back, clearly afraid of her.

Jiang Qingxue was speechless. How could such an unlucky thing happen?

"I just came to buy fish, nothing else."

When she frowned, she looked extremely scary. She already didn't have a good appearance, and her face was gloomy, as if she wanted to hit someone.

The old lady became even more afraid of her, tightly holding onto something in her abdomen. Upon closer inspection, it was a money pouch.

Jiang Qingxue noticed it, and speculated that if the original owner were here, she would probably just snatch it directly.

But she wasn't the original owner.

She was just a pitiful person who had been transported here and had to bear everything the original owner had.

"If you want the fish, take it, but this old lady doesn't have any money."

The other person desperately tried to protect their money, looking like they wanted money but not goods. However, it seemed that the fish had been sitting there for a long time and wouldn't sell if she didn't take them.

"How much for the fish?"

However, Jiang Qingxue didn't want to take advantage. Nine years of compulsory education hadn't taught her to take things for free.

The old lady seemed somewhat skeptical as she glanced up and down, thinking that she couldn't afford it anyway, so she replied, "Five wen for the ones with more thorns, six wen for the ones with fewer thorns."

"Give me a six-wen one."

Jiang Qingxue pointed to one with a stern face, and the old lady quickly reached out and pinched the gills of the fish, lifting it up skillfully to start processing it.

The fish scales were scraped off bit by bit, and only then did Jiang Qingxue take out six wen from her pocket and handed it over condescendingly after the fish was properly handled.

The old lady still couldn't believe it and looked at her in shock.

Seeing Jiang Qingxue's increasingly unhappy expression, fortunately, the other party took the money before she could get angry and embarrassed.

"Here, your fish."

The fish was hung on a grass rope with its belly split open, looking lifeless. Jiang Qingxue pulled the fish a little further away with some disgust, no longer paying attention to the old lady, and turned to leave.

She had endured a lot of frustration today for this fish, so she had to have a good meal when she got home.

The old lady looked at the coins in her hand, then at Jiang Qingxue's departing figure, feeling foolish. No matter how she thought about it, she never expected that Jiang Qingxue would actually pay. After all, in her eyes, Jiang Qingxue shouldn't even have six wen.

Someone nearby approached, "Hey, Aunt Wu, did Jiang Qingxue just ask you for protection money?"

The old lady known as Aunt Wu shook her head and truthfully replied, "Not only did she not ask me for protection money, she also paid for the fish."

"Is it true? Does she have money to buy fish?"

Those few people stared at Jiang Qingxue's somewhat worn-out skirt, as if trying to find a flaw.
