Su Li looked at Zhou Yuting and said, "I never stoop to lying. I only say what I see, whether you believe it or not is your business."

"I couldn't see the man's face clearly in the reeds, but I did see Zhou Yuting. She was indeed doing that kind of thing."

"But I don't like to meddle in other people's business, so I didn't pay attention. When I got home and was about to cook, I heard someone knocking on the door. I opened the gate to the yard and found Comrade Zhang. He came to see Zhou Yuting."

“When I heard that he was looking for Zhou Yuting, I told him that he was in the reed marshes and that he should go there to find her.”

Zhou Yuting never expected that Zhang Shun would discover her affair because of Su Li.

Out of anger, she yelled at Su Li without thinking, "It's you...!"

She regretted it as soon as she said it, and by then everyone else had realized what was happening.

It turns out that Zhou Zhiqing slept with another man and was shameless enough to let Zhang Shunlai be the cuckold.

Angry accusations erupted from the crowd: "Shameless! Not only are they having an affair, but they also try to smear others."

"Exactly! To do it during someone else's big celebration, that's really malicious."

"She almost ruined Shunzi's chances of getting married. I bet the baby in her belly is that other man's too!"

The brigade leader was also furious. If he hadn't known his son's character, he would have almost been fooled by Zhou Yuting's story. "Zhou Zhiqing, what else do you have to say?"

Zhou Yuting's face was deathly pale, and she glared at Su Li with hatred.

Su Li ignored it completely. Zhou Yuting had brought this upon herself, and she had no one to blame but herself.

Zhang Zuilan shouted, "Captain, people like this should be sent down to the farm to prevent them from causing trouble." Ever since her husband was arrested, she has despised all educated youth and wanted to kick them while they were down.

"Yes, sending them to farms... If we leave such a scourge in our village, who knows how many more people they'll harm in the future?"

Hearing their words, Zhou Yuting became frightened; "No, no, I don't want to be sent to the farm, you can't do this to me."

An older woman, unable to stand it any longer, said, "You came to someone else's wedding and caused trouble, almost ruining their life. And you still say you shouldn't have done it? Do you think that makes sense?"

Zhou Yuting defended herself, saying, "I just... I just really wanted to be with Zhang Shun. He was confessing his feelings to me just a few days ago. I was just unwilling to accept it. I didn't intend to do anything else."

Aunt Li angrily said, "You haven't done anything else, but you're ruining my son's reputation and destroying his marriage. He confessed his feelings to you, but you didn't accept him, did you? And you even went to the reed marshes with another man. And you still have the nerve to come and disrupt the wedding? How can you be so shameless?"

“I was forced into the reed marshes that day, it wasn’t my choice. That man was the same human trafficker who kidnapped me before. I reported it to the police, but no one could arrest him. What could I do? What could a weak woman like me do? Tell me?”

Su Li looked at Zhou Yuting, who was also somewhat frantic.

"So you want my son to be a cuckold and father the bastard in your belly. If Xiao Li hadn't seen what happened that day, you would have really succeeded."

The captain quickly calmed down. The wedding had to go on, after all, it was his son's big day. He looked at Zhou Yuting and said, "It's such a joyous day, I don't want things to get too ugly. Go back now! Tomorrow I'll report your situation to my superiors. As for whether you'll be sent to the farm, you'll just have to wait and see!"

"Captain, please let me go. I promise I'll never bother your son again." Zhou Yuting knelt down directly before the captain.

"Get back here! Don't delay my son's wedding any longer," Aunt Li said coldly.

Zhou Yuting looked at Zhang Shun with pleading eyes, "Please help me persuade the brigade leader not to send me to the farm. I promise I will never bother you again."

Zhang Shun actually knew about Zhou Yuting's hardships and saw the difficulties in her life; otherwise, he wouldn't have sympathized with her in the first place.

He turned to the captain and said, "Dad, how about we let it go this time? Let her off this time!"

The brigade leader glared at him; "I said I would report this matter. I don't care what the higher-ups decide. Zhou Zhiqing, you should go back and wait for further instructions!"

Zhou Yuting knew she wouldn't get anywhere by staying any longer, so she gave Zhang Shun a deep look before turning and leaving.

After she left, the team leader said to everyone, "Don't worry about it, it was just a small thing. Let's continue eating."

Everyone returned to their seats, and Su Li also sat down.

The bride and groom then went to the next table to toast, and everything returned to the previous joyous atmosphere.

After the wedding, Xie Feng went to see the brigade leader alone. Su Jiaojiao went to town yesterday and hasn't returned yet.

Although he didn't care where she went, he still had to tell the captain about it.

"You mean Su, the educated youth, went to town yesterday and hasn't come back yet?"

The brigade leader really felt that his term as brigade leader was coming to an end. These educated youths were really giving him a headache; not one of them was easy to deal with.

I don't know why these city people have so many tricks up their sleeves?

"She said she was going to town to buy some things yesterday, but she hasn't come back yet."

The captain looked Xie Feng up and down. His wife hadn't returned by nightfall, and he hadn't said a word about it.

Even now, he still feels sorry for Su Jiaojiao. What's the use of marrying a man like that? When it really matters, he can't handle anything.

"Why didn't you say so yesterday? You didn't even come to tell me when he didn't come back last night."

Xie Feng touched his nose. He had no idea that the woman was really missing. He thought she wanted to abort the child and had run off somewhere again.

"I thought she went to her uncle's house."

The brigade leader thought about it and realized that Su Zhiqing did indeed have an uncle in town.

The captain asked directly, "Have you confirmed whether Su Zhiqing is at her uncle's house or not?"

Xie Feng was actually certain that Su Jiaojiao was not there, because from the time they started recognizing each other until now, Su Jiaojiao had never spent the night at her uncle's house.

That's why he's bringing up Su Jiaojiao's disappearance now, worried that he might get dragged into it later.

"I'm not sure yet, Captain. I'd like to ask for leave this afternoon to go and take a look."

The captain quickly waved his hand and said, "Go now, ride my bicycle, and go check it out quickly."

Was he genuinely worried something might happen? After all, Zhou Yuting's affair was a case in point.

Xie Feng still had to put on an act, so he rode the brigade leader's bicycle and pretended to be anxious as he went to town.

He rode the bike directly to Yuan Shuo's house, where Su Jiaojiao had brought him before.

He knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered.
