Having given up on the idea, Liang Shuyan simply returned home and placed the ingredients on the cutting board. Old Mrs. Jin flipped them over with her hands, glanced at the tofu and vermicelli, and understood what was going on. She then glanced at Liang Shuyan.

"Sister-in-law, you went to the market in such a short time?"

To avoid arousing Jin Daya's suspicion, Liang Shuyan smiled and said, "How could it be so fast? When I went to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables, I happened to run into Qiu Dong at the market. They said they bought too much and would share some with us, so I brought it back."

Jin Daya then nodded.

Fortunately, Jin Daya didn't suspect anything. Liang Shuyan went to Niu Niu's room again. During this time, she hadn't had time to care what Niu Niu was doing. Niu Niu's studies were falling further and further behind, but she locked herself in her room all day without making a sound.

Liang Shuyan stood outside the door and listened carefully, but heard nothing. The door was ajar. She gently pushed it open and found Niu Niu sitting on a stool, holding a book in her hands, as if she was reading. She didn't notice that Liang Shuyan had already sat down next to her.

"Niu Niu, what are you doing?"

Niu Niu then climbed up from the table, glanced at Liang Shuyan with her reddened eyes, and pouted, "Mom, they, they said I'm a wild child."

After saying that, she burst into tears.

This puzzled Liang Shuyan. Who knew about Niu Niu's background?

"Who said that? Don't spread rumors! Tell Mother, I'm going to find out the truth!"

Liang Shuyan was about to leave with Niu Niu in her hand when she heard a voice saying, "Madam, it was my grandson who stirred things up and made Niu Niu sad. Please don't be angry!"

Looking up, she saw Mr. Su standing at the door with his grandson Su Jie. Su Jie's eyes were red: "Grandma Jin, I'm sorry, it was my dad who told me that Niu Niu's biological parents are in Beijing!"

This is outrageous! Liang Shuyan walked over slowly: "When did your father arrive? What did he say?"

Su Jie then blinked and looked at Mr. Su, saying, "My dad said that no matter what surname my mom makes us have, don't forget that our actual surname is Li!"

In order to completely extinguish Li Laosan's hopes, Su Qiaoqiao changed the children's surname. However, even so, he still came to disturb the children's lives from time to time.

Liang Shuyan then looked at Mr. Su: "It's alright. Qiaoqiao isn't home right now. Take good care of the two children. How can the village security team be so incompetent as to allow a beast like Li Laosan to sneak into the village?"

Mr. Su hesitated for a moment: "This, this can't be blamed on the security team. It's because that beast Li Laosan took advantage of my trip to the school to secretly meet with the two children. Madam, from now on, I will take good care of the two children!"

Su Jie is the eldest son, and Liang Shuyan patted his head and said, "Su Jie, tell Grandma Jin if you want to go back to Lijia Village with your father, leaving your grandfather and mother behind!"

Su Jie raised his head, his big eyes wide open, and shook his head repeatedly: "No, I don't want to leave Grandpa and Mom, but, but, my dad said that my mom is going to remarry, and if she remarries, she will have other children and won't love me and my brother anymore!"

Liang Shuyan clenched her fists tightly: "What? This Li Laosan actually said such a thing to the child?"

Mr. Su glanced at Su Jie, a wave of endless sorrow washing over him. Thanks to the two children around him all this time, Mr. Su's condition had improved considerably. But hearing the children say such things suddenly made Mr. Su's heart tighten, and his head buzzed as he fainted!

Liang Shuyan called out anxiously, "Dashan, Zhao Heng, come quickly, come and help!"

Jin Dashan then turned around and saw that Mr. Su had fainted and was unconscious. Zhao Heng quickly helped Mr. Su up and, seeing his pale face, said anxiously, "Dashan, hurry, help him inside and let him lie down, then call the doctor!"

Hearing the commotion in the yard, Grandma Jin ran out, washed her hands, and came in.

"No need to call a doctor, you can all go out first, I'll take a look at Mr. Su."

Liang Shuyan knew what was going on, and pulled Su Jie and Niu Niu out.

"Su Jie, you saw it all. Your grandfather is terrified that your father will take you away from him. He's so angry because of your father. Tell me, do you still dare to see your father? Do you want to anger your grandfather to death?"

Su Jie said excitedly, "No, Grandma Jin, please, save my grandfather! I will never listen to my father again!"

Su Jie's eyes were filled with tears, and he was filled with fear and worry.

Niu Niu asked with some worry, "Mom, will Mr. Su be alright? It's all because of me. If it weren't for me, this wouldn't have happened."

"Alright, Niu Niu, how old are you? Can't you see that someone is playing tricks on you? Your biological father is dead, and I am your biological mother. What, now that this family has wronged you, you're thinking of climbing the social ladder?"

Niu Niu was speechless after Liang Shuyan's words. She grabbed Liang Shuyan's hand and said, "Mom, don't be angry. It was Niu Niu who shouldn't have listened to the gossip. Niu Niu was wrong. Niu Niu believes me. I am your daughter, and this home is my home. I can't bear to leave Grandma, I can't bear to leave Mom, I can't bear to leave my brothers and sisters-in-law!"

Niu Niu's background has always been a little-known fact, and for some reason, Li Laosan revealed it. Liang Shuyan pondered for a moment, "Once Mr. Su wakes up, I must go and meet that Li Laosan!"

Upon learning that Mr. Su had fainted, Li Zheng strode in and exclaimed, "What happened to Mr. Su? What's wrong?"

Liang Shuyan hesitated for a moment and said, "Li Zheng, how can our village's security team be responsible for the village's safety? As for Mr. Su, he was harmed because Li Laosan broke into the village. My mother-in-law is already inside to check on him, and we don't know what the situation is yet. We need to wait a while before we can talk about it."

Li Zheng kept rubbing his hands as he looked at Liang Shuyan: "The captain of the security team hasn't been decided yet. These people are so slow. It seems we need a captain who is meticulous. Otherwise, how did Li Laosan break into our Daling Village? What did that beast say?"

Liang Shuyan hesitated for a moment before saying, "Right now, it's hard to say for sure. In any case, after Mr. Su wakes up, I need to go and meet this Li Laosan!"

“Alright, let’s go together. This Li Laosan is really a troublemaker. A few days ago, he was actually instigated by Jin Wang to say that your mother betrayed your father and caused his death!”
