"Xiao Rui is just a child, how can you say that to him?"

"Ever since Youyou got pregnant, you've been smearing her unborn child in front of Dekai, calling him some kind of super-male, and trying to drive a wedge between Dekai and Youyou. What are you trying to achieve by doing all these harmful and self-defeating things?!"

"Crescent Moon, if you're angry, take it out on me. I'm already halfway to the grave, I have no reason to live anymore. I might as well die of anger, but could you please spare my son and grandson? I'm begging you, as their elder, to have mercy!"

Zhang Cuihua adopted a humble posture, seemingly "begging" Su Yueya, but in reality, she was holding Su Yueya accountable and demanding an apology.

After shouting for a while, the commotion at the door finally caught the attention of the people inside.

"Why is she here?" Su Yueya wondered.

Inside the space, only Su Yueya could perceive the situation in the outside world in time, so the others were unaware of what had happened.

"Crescent Moon, what's wrong?" Lu Zhengjun asked.

"It's nothing, it's just that Zhang Cuihua came to our doorstep and made a scene, it seems..." Su Yueya frowned, ""It's about Liu Shengrui, she said I spread rumors that Liu Shengrui is Chaoxiong."

"Why is it happening again?" Qiao Xinruo complained with a look of disgust. "Didn't she cause trouble once before? There was no evidence then, so why is she bringing up old news again? It's never going to end!"

When Su Yueya warned Liu Dekai, she didn't leave any evidence.

As it turned out, her caution was justified.

"I think it must be about Zhengjun's promotion. I ran into Mo Youyou when I came back from the army today, and she..." Su Yueya then recounted their conversation.

"I heard something else." Qiao Shouyan, who came home later than others, stepped forward and told them about Liu Dekai moving to live in the military base.

"So, they had a fight, their family life couldn't go on, and now they want to drag my sister down with them?" Qiao Xinruo was full of disdain, thinking that this family was all brainless, unable to see the essence of the matter even now, and only looking for reasons in others.

“Not only that,” Su Yueya recalled what Sister Yuan’er had told her before, “Liu Dekai was injured and unable to participate in the encirclement mission, which was probably caused by Liu Shengrui. So the root of the conflict in his family lies with Liu Shengrui.”

"This is their family matter, Crescent Moon. You've already warned them. They failed to seize the opportunity and are now making a scene at our doorstep. We need to teach them a lesson," Lu Zhengjun said coldly. He couldn't stand by and watch others bully his wife so brazenly.

“Of course,” Su Yueya said.

During the conversation, the family came out of the space.

Liu Yuying and Qiao Hanxue did not intervene; they left the matter to the younger generation to handle themselves.

Led by Su Yueya, the four siblings and Lu Zhengjun all stepped forward.

"Have you shouted enough?" Qiao Xinruo coldly looked at Zhang Cuihua, who was sitting on the ground trying to gain sympathy from the onlookers by crying and shouting. "Your behavior constitutes defamation and slander. My sister is a soldier. Do you know what the consequences are for insulting soldiers?"

“You—” Zhang Cuihua, an uneducated country girl, was easily intimidated, but her ignorance also made her more fearless, always believing that she could solve all problems by throwing a tantrum.

"Don't take advantage of me just because I'm an uneducated country bumpkin. How did I spread rumors? It was Su Yueya who slandered my grandson first. She was in the wrong from the start!"

Not daring to confront Su Yueya, Zhang Cuihua turned her attention to the onlookers.

“When my daughter-in-law was pregnant, she spoke ill of my grandson in front of my son, saying that my grandson was a bastard. Actually, she was just jealous that Youyou was pregnant with a son. She was dumped by my son before, so she deliberately did these things to disgust people!” Zhang Cuihua insisted that Su Yueya was venting her anger and seeking revenge.

Alright, since Zhang Cuihua wants to argue, then Su Yueya will play along to the end.

"You say I was dumped by your son and that's why I deliberately caused all this trouble to get revenge on you? Fine!" Su Yueya pushed Lu Zhengjun out from beside her and turned to the neighbors who were watching the show. "Everyone, look carefully, this is my husband, Lu Zhengjun. I was able to marry him thanks to Liu Dekai's betrayal and to you and your son for abandoning me in the countryside without a care in the world."

"Tell me, I already have a husband like Lu Zhengjun, why would I still be interested in your son Liu Dekai? What does he have that's better than my husband?"

"Am I unwilling to let him barely climb to the position of battalion commander because of his father-in-law?"

Su Yueya chose to directly break off relations.

No matter who brings up the past, Su Yueya has a clear conscience and can withstand any questioning from anyone.

“Exactly,” Qiao Gaoyang, with his sharp tongue, couldn’t be absent at a time like this. He put his arm around his brother-in-law’s shoulder and said to everyone in a vivid voice, “Look at my brother-in-law’s face. My sister isn’t blind. She’s eaten delicacies from land and sea. Why would she look at those leftovers? That’s ridiculous!”

Lu Zhengjun raised an eyebrow triumphantly. He didn't need to say anything; simply standing there was the best proof that Su Yueya didn't need revenge.

"Tch, stop making fun of me!" Zhang Cuihua was stubborn and refused to admit it, and these people couldn't do anything to her. "Only Su Yueya knows best what she's up to. Whether she's secretly eyeing my son or not, she knows herself! Otherwise, why would she spread rumors about my grandson?"

Su Yueya was convinced. She realized that she had been too soft-hearted before, which gave this family the wrong impression that they could come to her place to cause trouble and provoke her again and again.

Now that Zhang Cuihua has come looking for her, Su Yueya has decided to resolve this hidden danger once and for all, so that they will no longer have the chance to act like clowns.

"If you insist that I'm after your son, there's nothing I can do. But anyone with eyes and no fetish for ugly things would know that I wouldn't do something so stupid. As for you saying I'm spreading rumors about your grandson... fine, where's the evidence? If you have evidence, then show it. If you don't, then it's either you spreading rumors or me spreading rumors, and there are so many people here who heard you spreading rumors about me," Su Yueya said.

For the first time, Zhang Cuihua realized that Su Yueya, who used to be so docile in front of her, also had such a sharp tongue, leaving her speechless with every word.

“Yes, do you have any evidence?” Qiao Shouyan stepped forward.

Everyone stood in front of Su Yueya or stood beside her, accompanying her through it all.

In contrast, Zhang Cuihua went to someone else's doorstep to cause trouble, but couldn't even produce any decent evidence.

"Yes, if you're accusing someone of spreading rumors, then there should at least be a witness or something, someone who heard it with their own ears, right?"

"Yes, Aunt Cuihua, do you have any witnesses? If so, call them over, and we'll all support you!"
