Chapter 49 I Don't Like Women
Sharon rode the motorcycle and speeded up. However, when they arrived at the entrance of the textile mill, all the worker had been in work.
"Girl, why are you and your brother so late today?"
The sound of motorcycle and their good-looking appearance attracted people's attention easily.
"Yes, I was delayed by something on my way here."
Celia could tell there was something wrong with It, but she still put the eggs down. Celia was tired after riding the motorcycle for almost two hours.
"Don't worry, girl. Your eggs are great. Someone will come here to buy it later."
The woman comforted, but her eyes kept casting a glance at Sharon. Celia had been worried all the way about her egg. She hadn't noticed the change of the people who were present at the stall today. Now she saw that several young girls wore rouge on their faces, and their new red gowns were also very conspicuous.
Did they come here for Sharon?
"Do you like my granddaughter? Cute or not?"
This young girl was eighteen years old at most and had a delicate face. Although she didn't know how to dress up or put on makeup at that time, she dressed herself with simplicity and she looked pretty nice.
"Pretty girl, your granddaughter is so lovely."
Celia gave a thumbs up. She didn't want to offend others in any way.
"But will your brother like her?"
The woman asked in a low voice.
"You want to set her up with my brother?"
It was the second time they had met each other since yesterday. And her granddaughter hadn't got a chance to have a talk with Sharon. But that woman wanted her granddaughter to marry Sharon?
"I just like your brother. You have seen my granddaughter. Do you think they..."
Sharon was a handsome and well-dressed young man. So Celia guessed that that young girl had a crush on Sharon at the first sight.
"I think your granddaughter is great, but I can't make decision for my brother. He has always been strong willed and assertive since he was a child. You have to ask him yourself."
Celia glanced at Sharon, who was standing on the other side and remained silent, and Celia couldn't help wondering how terrifying it was to have an arranged marriage in such an era. They hadn't even talked with each other yet. How could the woman be so sure that the man would be good to her for the rest of his life?
"Really? Then I will ask my granddaughter."
With a big smile, the woman asked her granddaughter to talk to Sharon.
Celia was waiting to see how things would go on. He had volunteered to come here by himself, and he deserved it. Furthermore, he could get a wife who popped out from nowhere, and the girl didn't ask him for any betrothal gifts. It was a fair deal for him.
But she then saw that young girl running towards her grandmother with tears.
"What's wrong? Why are you crying? There are so many people here. Don't embarrass yourself."
The woman rebuked the young girl after seeing her granddaughter crying.
"Miss, my brother didn't bully you. Why are you crying? You can tell me what happened. I'll help you teach him a lesson."
Celia was also confused. She only knew that Sharon was a nice and courteous man and he was good at flirting with the girls. How could he make that girl cry?
"Grandma, he said he didn't like women."
The little girl said while crying.
"What? What nonsense! Even if he doesn't like you, he shouldn't have come up with such a lame excuse. Does he love men if he doesn't like women?"
In the ancient times, they knew nothing about gay or lesbian culture. So she felt hurt and humiliated when Sharon refused her granddaughter.
"Please don't be angry. My brother has a bad mouth since he was a child. Please don't take it to heart. Besides, you granddaughter is so beautiful. I believe that she will definitely find a good man. Our family is too poor."
In order not to make things worse, Celia explained hastily.
"Your brother is a hypocritical man. It is a blessing for my granddaughter to have a crush on him. How dare he refuse her with such a bad reason!"
The woman who had been kind just now was so angry that she had no vent out her anger on Celia.
"Yes, it is his mistake. Don't worry, I will give him a hard lesson after I go back."
It was Sharon who had made a mistake. Now it seemed as if she had done something wrong.
"And, don't let me see you and your brother here again in the future. It's very awkward!"
The woman really seemed to be angry.
"Aunt, this is a public place and each of us is doing our own business. If I don't sell it here, I can't sell so many eggs."
Celia didn't expect that the old woman would turn against her so soon. There were so many potential customers from the textile mill, how could she leave such good place.
"Anyway, I don't care. I can't see your brother now. It makes me feel uncomfortable to see him. My granddaughter looks so beautiful. How could he insult her like that?"
The woman was furious.
"It's not that serious. My brother just blurted out those words and he didn't think it through. He doesn't mean to insult you."
Sharon got her into trouble again.
"Anyway, no matter what it is, don't let me see you and your brother here tomorrow. We have been doing business here for four or five years."
The woman threatened her and claimed that this was her place.
"You are being unreasonable. Why can't I sell eggs here?"
Celia Though that this woman was as arrogant and domineering as Sue. However, Celia was not afraid of her at all.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
"But there are enough people selling eggs here. You're not welcome here."
This woman treated her with indifference.
"Ma'am, since this is not your home, you are being unreasonable."
This place was not the private property of that woman, and she had every right to come here. That woman could do anything to her, and she was not a pushover.
"Girl, if there is something wrong with your egg, do you think anyone will buy it?"
"Hey, please mind your words and behave yourself. My eggs are good!"
Celia couldn't believe what she had heard.
"If the rumors spread, people will believe that there is something wrong with your eggs."
The woman yelled loudly, and there were many onlookers. Especially those who felt jealous of Celia because she earn a lot of money from selling the eggs yesterday. They all gazed at Celia and whispered.
"Don't try to slander me."
Celia finally understood the meaning of her words. The woman wanted to ruin Celia's reputation and no one would dare buy eggs from her.
"Let's go. We won't come here tomorrow."
Seeing this, Sharon cleaned up the eggs and put them in the motorcycle immediately, then pulled away the angry Celia.
