Chapter 40: Not Buying It

Su Jinhui subconsciously looked over for help.

"It's okay. Brother Wang and his wife are not the kind of people who stick to formalities. They won't blame you even if the name isn't good." Yan Li'an's words undoubtedly helped her to accept the task.

It is not difficult to come up with a name, but it is really a headache to come up with a name that is in line with the current era.

Su Jinhui smiled awkwardly, and after a long while she managed to speak, "Wang Huifang is ok? Hui represents wisdom, and Fang represents virtue and beauty. I hope everything goes well for this child, and she will live a worry-free life."

"Okay, then I'll call you Huifang! Come to think of it, your name also has the word Hui in it!" Mrs. Wang agreed happily.

It was her reminder that made Su Jinhui realize this problem, but obviously both parties didn't mind, so it was not a problem.

Brother Wang was holding the baby in his arms and smiling from ear to ear: "Baby, you have a name."

The room was filled with laughter.

…

The people in the family compound are very welcoming and it is natural for you to visit each other if you happen to live together. If someone gets married or has a baby, you will definitely go over to see them with your belongings.

"Hey, sister, you gave birth to the baby at home? You're so brave. It's a good thing nothing happened, otherwise your family would definitely eat Lao Wang."

Captain Wang smiled and agreed, "Yes, but the situation is urgent. I'm afraid she won't be able to handle it if we go to the hospital. Fortunately, Jinhui is here, otherwise I would be dumbfounded."

"Is Su Jinhui really that capable? I heard she became a doctor by relying on others to get promoted."

Captain Wang's expression immediately changed. "That's all a rumor! She saved the Commander's wife, and now she's saved my wife and daughter. Even if others don't believe her, I must believe her!"

"Yes, yes, I just said it casually. Why are you still angry, Brother Wang?"

The other party stayed for a while before leaving awkwardly.

Mrs. Wang couldn't help but scold, "Why are you so angry with Sister Li? Her husband is your company commander, and you have to deal with him every day."

"She is the biggest talker. I just want to clear Dr. Su's name. As long as Sister Li is concerned about something, it will surely spread throughout the streets and alleys." Captain Wang looked at his daughter with his heart sweeter than eating honey.

Mrs. Wang smiled and shook her head helplessly. Her husband was a very straightforward person. Although he easily offended people, he was kind-hearted and caring. Those shortcomings were not really shortcomings.

On the other hand, Liu Ruolan still persisted and spread rumors about Su Jinhui every day.

She never gets tired of blaming all the bad things she can think of on Su Jinhui.

She firmly believed that if Su Jinhui's ugly face was exposed to everyone one day, she would lose everything she had now.

Liu Ruolan was immersed in her own world and couldn't extricate herself, as if she was the person who knew Su Jinhui best in the world.

But she gradually found that people were less and less willing to buy her gossip.

She originally thought that everyone was tired of hearing it, so she planned to re-arrange the role of a bad woman for Su Jinhui.

But as soon as she appeared, she found that the group of people who were sitting there chatting immediately dispersed, as if they were deliberately avoiding her.

This happened for several days in a row.

No matter how dumb Liu Ruolan was, she could still notice the clues. She stopped going out to sea to fish, and instead sat in front of the broken boat early, waiting for people to come and chat.

In the past, there was a rough time point, and it was the same every day.

But what was strange was that when they saw Liu Ruolan there, they whispered a few words and left laughing.

She immediately stood up and ran over to grab one of them.

Liu Ruolan hurriedly asked, "Little Dog, tell me! Why are you all hiding from me?"

"Don't you know? Big liar!" Xiaogouzi glared at her fiercely.

"What did I lie to you about?" Liu Ruolan was confused.

"You're jealous of Su Jinhui, so you're making up stories to lie to people! You're the most jealous, mean woman on the island! My mom told me not to talk to you, for fear I'd develop a long nose!"

Xiaogouzi spoke confidently, and every word seemed to pierce her heart.

Liu Ruolan was furious. Even a child dared to make up stories about her like this. She was afraid that those people had made up stories about her behind her back.

"I'm not lying! She is a bad woman!" Liu Ruolan's eyes were firm.

"Nonsense! She saved the commander's wife and helped the company commander's wife give birth. She's helped so many people. When she came across families in difficult circumstances, she even used her own money to help them with their medical treatment. She's a really good person! You're a real villain!"

Children always speak without restraint, but even the most innocent words exposed Liu Ruolan's true colors. In anger, she grabbed Xiaogouzi's collar, but before she could react, Xiaogouzi burst into tears.

"Ah! Ah! Bullying! Liu Ruolan hit the child!"

The bystanders who originally didn't want to take action also came over, pushed Liu Ruolan away, and protected the puppy tightly behind them.

Liu Ruolan gritted her teeth and said indignantly, "You've all been bribed by that woman! She's just pretending! She can even get into the hospital, so it's not difficult for her to spread some fake news."

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they saw her acting like she was the only one sober while everyone else was drunk. Their laughter sounded particularly harsh to Liu Ruolan.

"What are you laughing at? What I said is true. What's so funny?" Liu Ruolan asked loudly but could not hide her guilty conscience.

The onlookers couldn't bear to watch and couldn't help but burst her dream: "Who do you think they saved? It was the commander's wife! If it wasn't true, she would have been arrested and questioned long ago! What's more, she helped many fishermen. We have witnessed the facts with our own eyes. Do you think we should believe your story?"

"I didn't make it up!" Liu Ruolan clenched her fists tightly, enduring the ridicule and humiliation at this moment.

The other party scoffed bluntly, "Yes, you didn't make it up. I'm afraid you've been lying for so long that even you've started to believe it! Everyone knows that you favor officers from other armies, but they look down on you. When you can't get what you want, you attack their wives who haven't even married yet. How did your Liu family produce such a prominent figure like you?"

"Why bother talking so much nonsense to her? I think if you remind her, she might hate you! She might just be happy dreaming!"

"Yes, yes, yes."

The sound of their conversation came one after another, which was undoubtedly a torture for Liu Ruolan.

Liu Ruolan blamed all her current humiliation on Su Jinhui, and she would settle the score sooner or later!

But she also hated the group of people in front of her.

Anger devoured Liu Ruolan's remaining sanity, and she grabbed a handful of sand and threw it at everyone.

The others were fine, but the puppy was the shortest, so most of the sand splashed onto his face and eyes.

He closed his eyes tightly and cried loudly: "I'm blind! I'm blind! I can't see anything!"

"If I don't teach you a lesson, you might forget your last name and your name!"

Her behavior sparked outrage among the crowd, and they all came towards her with their fists raised...
