Setting: Fictional parallel universe, please do not reference historical events!
Bai Fumei Su Qingci, who managed a farm in modern times, was sent to the 1970s as a young educated youth by Ce...
Chen Haiying was about to vomit blood.
Chen Xiuxiang was subtly showing off to herself that Luo Zhishan was gentle and considerate towards her.
She even said that she had never taken the initiative, implying that she had been avoiding Luo Zhishan, but Luo Zhishan insisted on pursuing her, and she had no choice but to do so.
By what right did she tell herself not to make things difficult for Luo Zhishan?
Luo Zhishan is already suffering and exhausted enough. What's so suffering and exhaustion about this?
"Because he married me?" Chen Haiying was so angry that his hands were trembling as he pulled at the sack.
"Chen Xiuxiang, you shameless slut, do you think everyone is like you, unable to live without a man?"
"You know a woman's reputation is important. You may be shameless, but I am."
"Do you think everyone's blind? Does nobody really understand how many men in the team you're keeping on your lap?"
"You think everyone fawns over you because they like you? Who wouldn't play with free trash?
"Only that idiot Luo Zhishan would fall for your act. Look at my in-laws, aren't they disgusting?"
"Don't even mention me, Chen Haiying. Even without me, a slut like you wouldn't be allowed to enter the Luo family."
"Give that good-for-nothing Liu Qunfu some face, you slut."
Chen Xiuxiang originally intended to upset Chen Haiying and make her go back to Luo Zhishan to cause trouble. This way, with the contrast, she would appear more considerate and understanding in Luo Zhishan's eyes.
If he makes too much of a fuss, he won't believe that Secretary Luo and his wife Zhang Guiying really have no complaints about her at all!
Unexpectedly, Chen Haiying launched into a tirade of vulgarities at him.
The more morally corrupt a person is, the more afraid they are of others saying that they are morally corrupt.
Moreover, what Chen Haiying said was not untrue.
On several occasions when she went to work, Chen Xiuxiang fawned over Secretary Luo and Zhang Guiying, but the couple treated her with disdain.
Even before marrying Chen Haiying, Zhang Guiying made no attempt to hide her dislike for him.
The fact that they can tolerate Chen Haiying now only proves that they are inferior to Chen Haiying, doesn't it?
A flash of humiliation crossed Chen Xiuxiang's eyes, which then turned into a look of ferocity.
If Zhang Guiying hadn't so openly expressed her rejection of her, she might have already agreed to marry Luo Zhishan.
"So what? Your man would rather wag his tail around me like a dog than give you a kind look."
"Do you know what clothes he retrieved for me last time?"
“It’s my underwear. You have no idea how reluctant he was to let go of my underwear.”
"Tsk tsk tsk~ How pitiful~"
"He has no intention of marrying you. He said he feels disgusted even lying in the same bed with you."
“He came to see me right before you got married. He didn’t mind that I had been with Liu Qunfu as long as I agreed.”
"He would rather have me, a woman who has lost her virginity, than marry you."
"What right do you have to call me cheap? Why don't you be cheap yourself and seduce him back?"
With an innocent face, Chen Xiuxiang spoke the most hurtful words in the gentlest tone.
Su Qingci and the other two hid behind the door, their faces full of gossip as they whispered among themselves.
"How come Chen Haiying hasn't improved at all? She can tolerate this? And she even laid a hand on him?"
"If it were me, I would have scratched that face to shreds."
"Yeah, they're getting more and more pathetic. I wonder where all that confidence they had back in the educated youth settlement, when they bullied the girls in the dormitory, has gone?"
"Could it be that getting married really changed her personality?"
"Sister, Chen Xiuxiang is so shameless, I'm getting really into this."
"She married Liu Zhiqing, but she's still hooking up with Luo Zhishan, and keeping Liu Yuanbo and Shanqi on her toes. Even when her second brother married Shen Chuntao, he wasn't very happy, saying that Shen Chuntao wasn't as sensible as Chen Xiuxiang."
Xiao Yuehua was trying her best to imitate Chen Xiuxiang's innocent expression.
She lowered her head slightly, her eyes looking up timidly and innocently, her eyebrows furrowed and raised, and she bit her lip.
He turned to look at Su Qingci.
When Xiao Yuehua turned around, Su Qingci felt uncomfortable seeing her expression that said, "The butcher didn't get enough to eat."
How come Chen Xiuxiang looks so pitiful and endearing in the video?
You know what, sometimes you really can't blame men for being blind.
Faced with Chen Xiuxiang's repeated and bottomless provocations, Chen Haiying could no longer suppress her anger.
He raised his arm, ready to swing it down.
"stop!"
Chen Haiying was startled, her raised arm froze in mid-air, and her face turned deathly pale.
She fell for it again.
When no one was around, Chen Xiuxiang would never provoke him, for she was afraid he would actually hit her.
She only provokes and challenges herself when she feels she has wronged herself.
Luo Zhishan dropped the rice and bran that had just been pressed from the rice mill, hurriedly stepped forward, and shielded Chen Xiuxiang behind him.
He looked at Chen Haiying with a wary expression.
"What are you trying to do now? I've already told you, you're not allowed to cause trouble for Chen Zhiqing anymore."
"If you have any complaints, take them out on me. Don't drag innocent people into this."
The onlookers could just see Chen Xiuxiang's smug, upturned smile.
Xiao Yuehua tugged at Su Qingci's sleeve and whispered, "Is Luo Zhishan out of his mind? Others are bullying his wife, and he's helping them bully her too?"
Su Qingci nodded, "But it's not his fault. Look at Chen Xiuxiang, she looks so aggrieved and about to cry, while Chen Haiying is all stiff and menacing."
"Let alone the men who just arrived, if we hadn't been here watching the whole thing, we probably would have thought that Chen Haiying was bullying Chen Xiuxiang."
"How come Chen Haiying has suffered so many losses at my hands and still hasn't improved at all?"
"How can this Iron Woman possibly defeat a green tea bitch?"
Looking at her husband who was firmly protecting Chen Xiuxiang behind him, Chen Haiying felt as if her heart was about to break into eight pieces.
It's always like this, it's always like this.
Whenever she and Chen Xiuxiang had a conflict, regardless of who was right or wrong, she would always stand on Chen Xiuxiang's side.
But she still wouldn't give up, "Aren't you going to ask me why I hit her?"
"Do you even need to ask? I'm not blind. How many times have you caused her trouble for no reason?"
"Do you really think I don't know how you've bullied her all these years?"
Seeing the couple arguing, Chen Xiuxiang quickly tugged at Luo Zhishan's sleeve.
"Brother Zhishan, let it go. Sister Haiying probably didn't mean it. She just cares about you too much."
"Don't blame her."
“From now on, let’s avoid each other when we run into each other, so that Haiying doesn’t misunderstand anything and affect your relationship.”
“I’ve explained it so many times, that I’m completely innocent with you, but she just won’t believe me.”
Not to mention Chen Haiying, even the three people squatting behind the door eating melon seeds felt the same way she did.
Su Qingci even started to growl in a low voice.
"Red bean paste, put them all in red bean paste, put them all in red bean paste, put them all in red bean paste, put them all in red bean paste."
