It was not until the men behind could no longer bear it that He Feng came over as a representative to inquire about the situation, and only then did he realize that a group of women were having a great time gossiping.

"Ahem, um, let's serve the dishes first and talk while we eat?" He Feng would say tentatively. After all, women are the most powerful in the family. As the chef in the kitchen, Donghua has the final say on when to serve dinner.

"Oh, yes, look at my brain, Sister Lai, let's eat first and then continue."

"Okay." Qian Lai smiled. Oh, following these young people, he felt that his mentality had become younger.

He Luyi also hurried to help serve the dishes. It was already eight o'clock in the evening and they were really hungry.

I picked up a piece of braised chicken feet with chopsticks. Hmm, it still tastes like my mother's. As expected, no matter how much time has passed, the dishes cooked by my mother are still the same as before.

When the meal started, He Luyi stopped chatting about gossip and focused on eating.

As for gossip, let's wait until she finishes her meal.

When it comes to eating, gossip is nothing to be afraid of.

He Luyi was very active in eating, and even more active in eating melons, eating faster. After the meal, she and her mother cleaned up and washed the dishes. Several grown men were dragged up to play cards, while several women were playing mahjong. Since there were three people missing one, He Peiyi took over.

Although He Peiyi is young, she is really good at playing mahjong under the influence of her mother Donghua.

As for He Luyi, she didn't like playing mahjong and didn't learn it. She just sat aside and watched her aunts and uncles play together. She just watched quietly.

He Luyi only roughly understood the meaning of "Qing Yi Se", "Gong" and "Peng", and as for the rules of mahjong, he had only a vague understanding of them.

He Luyi held her little brother and sat next to her mother. At night, He Xiaochen recognized her as his mother and couldn't live without her.

There was no other way, so He Luyi had to be a qualified tool, holding the baby and looking after her mother, while eating melon seeds and strawberries and listening to them talk about all kinds of gossip besides playing mahjong.

"Sister Lai, what happened to the teacher you mentioned this afternoon? He hasn't finished yet, keep talking!" Donghua said first.

"Oh, let's continue. That female teacher is being pursued by a male teacher in the school. You know, those who can get into our school are all of decent character and good teaching ability, so many teachers have found partners in the school. They are all very happy, with family matters and ordinary and warm lives. So, we in the office are quite optimistic about them."

"In the end, we never expected that the final outcome would be like that. We were all so heartbroken!" Qian Lai described it vividly, with exclamations coming one after another.

"Oh my God, how could this happen! It's too tragic." Donghua sighed.

Zhou Qingya looked at Donghua's performance and felt that she was too ignorant. As a strong woman, she had seen many such things and was no longer surprised.

"That's nothing. I'm going to tell you a piece of gossip, but just keep it to yourself. Don't spread it outside. This concerns the harmony of our family."

As soon as Zhou Qingya said this, everyone immediately thought about what kind of thing could make this usually calm and composed strong woman emphasize it again and again.

"Here's what happened. Before, I was going to introduce clients to Cathay Pacific for the road construction project, so I visited quite a few acquaintances. So, after seeing each other so many times, I had a rough idea of ​​what everyone looked like. One day at noon, I was thinking that Qinglan was running low on milk powder, so I wanted to go to the maternity and baby store to see if there was any temporary supply. You all know that Qinglan likes milk powder, and it's good for her health."

"I used to order from the village because it was fresh, guaranteed, and safe. But last time it was an emergency, so I went to a branded maternity and baby store in the county to look at milk powder. And guess what? I saw a middle-aged man with a paunchy belly and hair loss, accompanied by a pregnant woman, looking at all kinds of maternity and baby products."

"I recognized that man right away. We once discussed business matters at a drinking table together. Some of his behavior left a deep impression on me, so I knew who he was the moment I saw him."

"At first I thought he was accompanying his wife. He's in his 40s or 50s, and his wife is nearly 40. Pregnant at that age would make her an advanced maternal age, so it's normal for her to be so cautious. Their eldest son is about to graduate from high school, so it's perfectly normal for them to be pregnant with their second child."

He Luyi and the others listened attentively, and actually attracted several men at the table next to them.

They were all gossiping like crazy, listening intently with an unprecedented seriousness.

Zhou Qingya continued to narrate, not noticing what was happening here. "Then, when the woman looked up, I was shocked. This wasn't his wife. I've seen his wife a few times, and she's definitely not this woman. And looking at that belly, she's six or seven months pregnant. This is really terrifying when you think about it!"

"Later, whenever I had the chance to see his wife, I would remind her intentionally or unintentionally. I don't know if he really didn't react, or if he understood but pretended not to, but there was no reaction at all."

"I had to find an opportunity to speak openly about it, but the woman didn't react at all. She just said thank you for reminding me and that she trusted her husband. I was speechless and never mentioned it again. I don't know how she's doing now."

Donghua found it absurd, "Does she really not understand or is she pretending not to understand? Is it for her son?"

Qian Lai agreed. "That should be the case. Isn't it said that his son is about to take the college entrance examination? He must be doing this to protect the child. This kind of thing is the most difficult for a child to accept. But it's also possible that she has no feelings for her husband anymore. As long as she can get the money back, who cares if he has an affair? That's not necessarily the case."

He Luyi and He Peiyi looked at each other in surprise. My goodness, this topic is awesome. Although He Luyi had seen many examples on the Internet in her previous life, she had never seen one in person in reality, so she felt it was just average.

Ho Pui-yi's tactics at school are like: I won't play with you, and I won't let others play with you either. She doesn't need them and doesn't care.

Cheng Xingjue always sticks to her every day, and he has two best friends who have been playing with her since childhood, as well as a group of good brothers and sisters in the village who have always followed her around and are still playing together now. She never cares about this.

I didn’t expect that the adult world is so outrageous and awesome. It really opened my eyes.

Qian Lai and Donghua were actually also shocked. After all, the environment they were in was relatively simple. Zhou Qingya was different. The business world was like a battlefield, where all kinds of conspiracies and tricks had been seen. What had just happened was not the most outrageous thing, but there was no need to say it out loud.

"Okay, okay, let's stop talking. Let's play a few more rounds. It's getting late. It's time to go home and rest." Zhou Qingya said.

"Sister Ya, when will your company have a holiday? Do we still have to work tomorrow?" Donghua asked. There is actually still more than a month before the Chinese New Year. Donghua looked at the calendar. February 10 is the first day of the Chinese New Year. It is only December 24 now, so it is still early.
