Tangzhuang.

Zhou Qiaoyun sat at the doorway sewing shoe soles, occasionally craning her neck to glance in the direction of the main house.

Tang Suxiang arrived late at night on Song Hanwen's motorcycle, and she and her father-in-law, sister-in-law, and other relatives were up to some mischief again.

Inside the room, a group of people burst into laughter, seemingly talking about something funny.

"I just pretended to say it casually in front of San Hongyan, and San Hongyan actually went and told Brother Xie's mother that Cai Xing had been defiled by Wang Pizi! Hahahaha!" Tang Suxiang said gleefully.

Song Hanwen asked, "Mom, how did you know that Caixing is dating Xie Daguang and wants to marry him?"

“How would I know about this? I heard it from your third aunt. Your third aunt and Xie Daguang live in the same village. Xie Daguang wanted to marry Caixing and had a fight with his mother, which made the neighbors find out. In the end, his mother had no choice but to agree to let him marry Caixing. After your third aunt told me about this, I deliberately said in front of your third aunt that Caixing had lost her virginity. Your third aunt will definitely tell the Xie family.”

Everyone in the room was incredibly excited, as if they had drunk chicken blood.

Seeing that Song Erzhuang's family was in trouble, they were practically ready to set off firecrackers and celebrate.

"I heard from your third aunt that Xie Daguang's mother had everything prepared, and was just about to go and propose marriage. But as soon as she heard that Caixing had lost her virginity, she immediately stopped going." Tang Suxiang was extremely smug. "I heard from Wenxiu that Caixing got pregnant. Hahaha!"

“Wouldn’t that make her a broken shoe?” Tang Su’e said.

Then the group burst into laughter again.

"Hahahaha..."

Song Hanwen has half of the Song family blood flowing through his veins. His second uncle treated him better than his own son since he was a child. Seeing his own mother and maternal grandfather and sixth aunt's family gloating like this, he felt a little uncomfortable.

"Wenxiu tells you everything now?" Tang Su'e asked.

“That’s right. Wenxiu listens to everything I say now. I teach her how to deal with Baogen and Qiao Guilan, and she does exactly that.”

Tang Suxiang looked at Old Man Tang as she spoke.

“Dad, you bribed the fortune teller in town to let Qiuxue take Wenxiu to have her fortune told. Now Wenxiu won’t let Baogen see Yinhua. Erzhuang’s family is in complete disarray.”

"It's a pity that the jade pendant that Yinhua stole hasn't been found." Old Tang was happy, "and Qiu Xue suffered such a great loss. How can Cai Xing's little matter make up for Qiu Xue's suffering?"

Tang Suxiang casually asked, "You haven't told Qiaoyun that Qiuxue is Qiaoyun's biological daughter yet..."

"Why did you suddenly bring this up!" Old Tang interrupted, glancing at Song Hanwen who was present. "I told you not to mention this, why did you bring it up again?"

"What's the big deal? I was just asking." Tang Suxiang didn't take it seriously.

Song Hanwen looked surprised, "Qiuxue is Seventh Aunt's biological daughter?"

Tang Suxiang: "Hmm, don't you remember the day your second aunt gave birth to her third child eighteen years ago, when your maternal grandfather and sixth aunt came to our house with a little baby?"

Song Hanwen had a vague recollection of it; he was already eight or nine years old at that time.

"Back then, it was your mother who secretly swapped your seventh aunt's daughter with your second uncle's," Tang Suxiang said with considerable pride. "If it weren't for your mother, your seventh uncle's daughter would have been drowned in a chamber pot by your sixth aunt long ago."

"Fifth Sister, why are you saying this?" Tang Su'e said unhappily. "When did I push Qiu Xue into the chamber pot? Don't talk nonsense in front of Qiu Xue in the future."

"Am I that kind of person? You're my own sister, how could I say you're not like that in front of Qiu Xue?" Tang Suxiang continued, as if seeking credit. "To avenge Qiu Xue, I ruined Cai Xing's marriage. Now Cai Xing is pregnant, and her life is ruined, hahaha."

Old Tang: "What's Cai Xing's little matter? What we really need to deal with is Yin Hua!"

"According to San Hongyan, the day after Yin Hua's wedding, a young, unmarried girl went to her house to cook dinner for her husband, hoping to get together with him!"

Tang Suxiang recounted what she had heard from San Hongyan.

"That young girl is the great-niece of Yinhua's husband's grandmother. She has always wanted to marry Yinhua's husband, but he refused. Now that Yinhua has married him, the young girl is still not giving up. I heard that Yinhua's in-laws are making Yinhua's husband divorce Yinhua."

"Did her husband agree?" Old Tang asked.

"No, I heard from San Hongyan that the young couple is very much in love." Tang Suxiang said sarcastically with jealousy, "They just got married. Once the novelty wears off, they'll get divorced sooner or later! I'll go find San Hongyan again and ask her about it. I'll try to get her to cause trouble at Yinhua's in-laws' house and see how Yinhua will have a good life!"

"Would your sister-in-law listen to you and cause trouble at Yinhua's in-laws' house?"

"San Hongyan is a mercenary woman who loves to take advantage of others. When she heard that my son Hanwen was going to open a factory and start a business, she always wanted my son to take care of her son. Now she's trying every means to curry favor with me. What a shameless face she has!"

Tang Suxiang then belittled her sister-in-law, talking at length about her sister-in-law's family scandals and making fun of her sister-in-law for having an affair with her father-in-law.

"Mom, don't talk about Auntie like that," Song Hanwen reminded his mother.

"Mom was just chatting casually with your maternal grandfather and sixth aunt, it's nothing." Tang Suxiang continued to tell her family about her sister-in-law with an indifferent attitude, "San Hongyan's eldest son looks exactly like her father-in-law."

By the time I finished telling my sister-in-law's story about melons, it was almost midnight.

Tang Suxiang rode her son's motorcycle back to the village.

"Mom, please don't talk about Uncle's and Aunt's shameful affairs in front of Grandpa and the others anymore." Song Hanwen advised his mother while riding his motorcycle. "Grandpa wants to harm Uncle. If you interfere and Uncle finds out, he'll make a scene!"

"Your second uncle is just a simple-minded fool. What are you afraid of? He gave money for your daughter's medical treatment and lent money for your and Xuewen's schooling. When his son Baogen needed money for his wedding, our family denied it. He was so angry that he wanted to burn down our house. Now look at him, he's still on our side in everything."

"Did my daughter really get that money from my second uncle for her acute pneumonia?" Song Hanwen knew his second uncle wouldn't lie, but he still needed to hear it from his own mother.

Tang Suxiang remained silent, which was taken as tacit agreement.

"Where did you send the third daughter from your second uncle's family, whom you replaced?"

“Your maternal grandfather and sixth aunt took him away and threw him into the cesspool where he drowned,” Tang Suxiang said.

Song Hanwen suddenly slammed on the brakes. "Mom, how could you do this? If Uncle finds out about this, he'll fight us to the death!"

"Your second uncle is quick to fight anyone when he gets angry. How many times has he fought with our family? But he still sides with us in everything! Your second aunt is useless. Even if she finds out, what can she do to us?"

Tang Suxiang didn't take Song Erzhuang and his wife seriously.

"Tomorrow I'll go to your third aunt's house and tell her to cause trouble at Yinhua's in-laws' house. Yinhua stole your grandfather's jade pendant, we can't let this go, we have to help your grandfather get revenge!"

Seeing that he couldn't persuade his own mother, Song Hanwen stopped trying and instead instructed her never to mention the matter of switching his second uncle's daughter again.
