My older sister, born in the 1970s, stole my marriage; I took my three treasures and blew up the fam

Ruan Jiaojiao deliberately said that Ruan Tinghe's man was dead, so as to prevent Shen Yan from thinking about himself, which also confirmed the "fact" that Ruan Jiaojiao had been married.

She wouldn't be foolish enough to tell the truth.

She wanted everyone to know that Ruan Tinghe was an unmarried woman who had gotten pregnant before marriage, killed her husband, and was also disobedient and unfilial—a truly vicious woman!

"My God, how can there be such an ungrateful wretch!"

"I can't believe Ruan Tinghe is this kind of person."

"Sending your adoptive parents to prison, are you even human?"

This time, the surrounding accusations were no longer suppressed; they were even deliberately amplified, as if afraid Ruan Tinghe wouldn't hear them.

Ruan Tinghe glanced over coldly and, sure enough, it was the same group of Aunt Zhu and her companions who had always helped Ruan Jiaojiao.

What a pack of lapdogs!

"Are you done talking?"

Ruan Tinghe looked coldly at Ruan Jiaojiao, her hands almost unable to restrain themselves.

"Little sister~, are you going to hit me again? Go ahead and hit me, I promise I won't fight back! Just please spare Mom and Dad!"

"They're too old, they can't..."

"Slap! Slap!" Before Ruan Jiaojiao could continue speaking, Ruan Tinghe grabbed her hair and slapped her twice across the face.

"You've finished talking, isn't it my turn?"

Ruan Jiaojiao was stunned by the beating. Just as she was about to curse and fight back, she remembered that there were many people watching, so she continued to act like a pitiful woman.

"Little sister~"

Ruan Tinghe held up one finger, "Including that last sentence, that makes a total of 28 sentences, and every single one of them disgusted me!"

"Since you've portrayed me as a wicked woman, then I'll show you what wickedness is today!"

"Clap clap clap!"

Ruan Tinghe grabbed Ruan Jiaojiao's hair and slapped her face repeatedly while muttering incantations.

"One, two, three, four... twenty-eight!"

After a flurry of actions, by the time everyone reacted, Ruan Jiaojiao's cheeks were already swollen and red, she had spat out a mouthful of blood, and even lost two teeth.

He was dizzy and fell to the ground.

"Ah! Murder!" Aunt Zhu screamed, rushing out and pointing at Ruan Tinghe, yelling, "You murderer! You'll definitely be arrested and shot!"

"What target? Is Ruan Jiaojiao dead? I'm just trying to get a little bit of interest back on my miserable life!"

"Compared to all the terrible things Ruan Jiaojiao has done to me since I was a child, this is just a drop in the ocean!"

The angry crowd was once again dumbfounded, and Qiao Xiaqing even asked directly, "What do you mean by that?"

Even if no one asks, she still has to explain.

She doesn't want to bear any unwarranted accusations, nor will she allow her child to suffer any stigma.

"I was indeed brought back by Ruan Jiaojiao's parents, Ruan Dashan, but I don't owe anyone in the Ruan family anything!"

"When I was three years old, there was a famine in the village and my whole family was starving. Ruan Dashan wanted to sell me for money, but I accidentally found a gold chain and Ruan Dashan let me go."

"Of course he didn't have a change of heart; he just wanted me to find more gold and silver treasures for him! Unfortunately, I never found any more!"

"When I was five, Ruan Jiaojiao pushed a child from the village, causing him to fall and break his head. Ruan Jiaojiao then accused me of pushing him! I was hung from a tree at the village entrance and beaten for a day and a night! I was starved for three days! He wouldn't have let me down if he wasn't afraid someone would die!"

"After that incident, Ruan Jiaojiao got a taste of success, and every time she did something bad, she would frame me, causing me to be beaten, scolded, and starved!"

"If she steals, I'll take the blame; if she damages someone's property, I'll take the blame; if she loses something, I'll still take the blame!"

"From age five to fifteen, I don't know how many times she slandered and framed me! How many times I took the blame for her! How many times I was beaten for her!"

"At first, I thought my adoptive parents were just being deceived, but later I found out that they had always known, and they even covered up evidence of Ruan Jiaojiao's crimes!"

Everyone gasped in shock.

"Is this true? It sounds so pitiful."

"It must be true, right? She remembers it so clearly; it doesn't seem like she made it up on the spot."

"I don't think so. A woman like her looks cunning and scheming!"

Ruan Tinghe took a breath and continued, "Not only that, Ruan Jiaojiao hates that I'm prettier than her."

"She tried to ruin my face several times, pushing me into a fire, throwing a kitchen knife at me, tripping me on the gravel path, and even sprinkling honey on my face while I was asleep, hoping to get bees to sting me!"

"Unfortunately, fate has been kind to me; I've survived each time by sheer luck!"

Ruan Tinghe recounted some of the tragic past events from her memory in one breath, and before she knew it, tears were streaming down her face.

Although she didn't experience it herself, her memory of it was so vivid, as if those hurts had happened to her countless times.

Some of the onlookers already had red eyes and were silently shedding tears.

Qiao Xiaqing secretly wiped away her tears with her sleeve. It was too tragic! This was just too tragic!

Aunt Zhu still didn't believe it: "Pshaw! Now that Jiaojiao can't speak after you beat her, she can't just say whatever she wants, can she? Without any evidence, who knows if what you're saying is true or false?"

Upon hearing this, many people calmed down again.

For a moment, I couldn't tell who was telling the truth and who was lying.

Ruan Tinghe had expected this, and she looked at Aunt Zhu with a mocking expression.

"So you do know you need evidence to support your claims? Then why didn't you ask Ruan Jiaojiao for evidence of the slander she just made against me?"

Aunt Zhu was speechless: "I..."

"So you believe everything Ruan Jiaojiao says, but you demand evidence for what I say? Are you a hypocrite?"

Aunt Zhu doesn't understand double standards, but she does understand the word "dog"!

Enraged, she pointed at Ruan Tinghe and yelled, "You damned bastard! Don't you know anything about respecting elders? I'm your elder! How dare you call me a dog!"

"I don't have an elder like you, so stop making up relatives here."

"You, you!" Aunt Zhu was so angry that she clutched her chest and couldn't speak.

Ruan Tinghe continued to tell the public, "I'm telling the whole truth. If I've told a single lie, may I, Ruan Tinghe, be hit by a car, choke to death while drinking water, or choke to death while eating!"

After saying that, she grabbed Ruan Jiaojiao and pinched Ruan Jiaojiao's swollen face.

"Do you dare swear, Ruan Jiaojiao?"

Of course Ruan Jiaojiao wouldn't dare!

People of this era.

While we should believe in science and not promote feudal superstition.

However, people are still very superstitious in private messages, especially those from rural areas!

With a swollen face, Ruan Jiaojiao mumbled, "Sister, you've hit me, you've scolded me, but how can you pin the things you did when you were little on me?"

"Clearly, I'm the one who took the blame for you, got hung up and beaten, and almost died several times!"

Ruan Jiaojiao refused to swear, since there was no evidence and it happened more than ten years ago, so what proof was there?

Even if you call her parents over, they'll only speak up for her!

Ruan Tinghe is such a good-for-nothing. She was bullied by her when they were kids, and she can only be bullied by her now!
