"Village chief! People from another village are causing trouble here!"

Upon seeing Village Chief Liu arrive, everyone seemed to have instantly found their pillar of support and backer, and immediately surrounded him, chattering excitedly.

Village Chief Liu's initially very good mood instantly turned sour, and his face turned cold in an instant.

From the conversations of the crowd, Village Chief Liu pieced together the gist of the matter. He learned that some shameless person wanted to provoke the Mo family, and that this person was from a distant village. He was furious!

He's in charge of this village, and if he's causing trouble for the Mo family, isn't he just causing trouble for himself?

Do you really think their village is so capable that it went from being dirt poor to gradually improving and developing? If they were truly capable, they would have all become rich decades ago, instead of having to tighten their belts every day to make ends meet!

It's all thanks to the Mo family's help! To be more specific, it's because of the mute woman's kind heart; she wanted to help the villagers!

They must not be ungrateful. The mute woman was right. To succeed in business, you must first learn how to be a good person. If you know how to be a good person, your business will naturally prosper!

Seeing that the villagers' lives were gradually improving, he knew that outsiders would be envious, and many wanted to marry into their village—something they had never dared to dream of before! This was a good thing, it meant that the villagers' value had increased!

However, it is absolutely unacceptable for someone to use underhanded means to marry into the family, especially if that person already has a wife!

If this sets a precedent and everyone follows suit, what will become of this village?

Chaos reigns, morality and ethics are nonexistent, and people are willing to do anything for their own benefit. They are not far from destruction!

He had been the village chief for decades, and he had finally achieved some success, which was getting better and better. He was determined not to let anyone ruin it!

Village Chief Liu walked to the front, exuding an imposing aura without being angry. He hadn't been a village chief for so many years for nothing; his mere presence carried a fearsome authority.

"I don't care where you're from, but once you're in Changna Village, you have to abide by our village rules. Changna Village doesn't allow malicious destruction of other people's families, and it doesn't allow seduction of married men and women! You're a young woman, you can find any man you want, why do you have to come to our village to find married men! Our village doesn't welcome people with ulterior motives, so don't ever show your face in our village again! Otherwise, we'll kick you out every time we see you!"

After the village chief finished speaking, the other villagers also pointed at Qiu Huiling and began to curse her angrily.

Qiu Huiling panicked. She couldn't understand why even the village chief had come. How could she possibly win against so many opponents?

She was completely defeated!

One mouth can never out-argue dozens of mouths, and besides, she was in the wrong to begin with. After being bombarded by the words of the crowd, she was in a daze and couldn't think of any way to deal with it. She was forced to retreat step by step by the insults.

With a final grit of his teeth, he forced himself to hold on and fled in disarray.

The crowd wouldn't let her go, chasing after her and hurling insults for a while.

Su Nanxi didn't chase after her. She didn't say anything more afterward. With everyone around, she only needed to quietly pretend to be sad.

Hmph! She can pretend to be weak and sad too!

It's like she can't do it!

How simple!

But she wouldn't just get plastic surgery; isn't it comfortable to be her true self?

Packing up every day, carrying so many bags, aren't you tired?

Village Chief Liu didn't chase after them. As a member of the village leadership, he naturally had to maintain a certain air of authority. But once the crowd had gone far away, he immediately put on a smiling face again.

There was a hint of ingratiation in it.

Su Nanxi thought for a moment and said to Village Chief Liu, "That woman is cunning and adept at using underhanded tactics. I doubt she'll let this go easily and will likely cause more trouble once she gets back. She's also very good at spreading rumors and using public opinion to exert pressure; she played a part in my previous rumors, so we have to be careful! My suggestion is that we strike first and publicly announce her intentions for coming to our village and the real reason she was driven out to the neighboring villages. This task can only be accomplished by you, Village Chief!"

Upon hearing this, Village Chief Liu's smile vanished, replaced by a serious expression. He stroked his beard, pondered for a moment, and then nodded emphatically. "Don't worry, Mute Mother, I'll take care of this! For the better development of our village, this scourge should be eradicated without mercy! I'll get on it right away, lest something unforeseen happens!"

After saying that, he turned and left in a hurry.

The villagers are used to calling Su Nanxi "Mute Mother". Even though Su Nanxi is no longer mute, they can't change their way of addressing her and still call her "Mute Mother". Su Nanxi doesn't mind and doesn't care what they call her!

Gao Yuling admired Su Nanxi for her understanding of her opponent and her ability to quickly devise a countermeasure.

That Qiu Huiling is currently being criticized so much that she's lost her way and has fallen several times. Her mind is in a mess, and she probably hasn't thought of a way to deal with it yet. By the time she comes to her senses and comes up with some underhanded tactics, public opinion will already be overwhelming her, and she won't even be able to take care of herself!

We were caught completely off guard!

Mo Qinghe pulled his wife close. Humph! Don't think he didn't see it; this little devil's eyes were practically sparkling when she looked at his wife, she was practically drooling!

Kao Yu-ling rolled her eyes. "Hmph! Stingy! Look what's wrong with that!"

Is she someone everyone idolizes?

Really!

Mo Qinghe ignored them and pulled Su Nanxi towards home.

The pork vendors under the big tree had basically sold out, though the Mo family had reserved their share in advance.

The fact that it was so fast is all thanks to the villagers. Everyone volunteered to help. With many hands making light work, and with the clan chief and village head watching over them, no one dared to play any tricks. They were afraid that not only would they not get anything, but they would also be expelled from the village in front of everyone, and their whole family would never be able to get anything good in the future!

After everything was settled, the young men in the village even helped carry the pork back to the Mo family's home.

The group returned to the Mo family home, and the Mo family home became lively again.

Su Nanxi glanced at the two young men, but didn't say anything.

The Mo family is busy again, sharpening knives, lighting fires, and cooking pots.

Chop, chop, chop, chop, chop, ping, ping, bang, bang!

Everyone was busy and laughing non-stop!

When Old Mrs. Mo returned from her trip, she looked unwell. After hesitating for a long time, she moved next to Su Nanxi and whispered, "Mute Mother, is San'er really still not better? I mean, I mean, his manhood!"

Grandma Mo felt like she couldn't speak anymore; she couldn't even finish a sentence.

Su Nanxi was busy preparing braised meat when she heard what Old Madam Mo said. She paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Mother, have you heard what people outside are saying? That's just what they're saying for others to hear. It's not true! Your third son is doing well! You can rest assured!"

"Oh, that's good!" Grandma Mo stared intently at Su Nanxi's face, not missing any change in her expression. Seeing that Su Nanxi looked relaxed and showed no signs of faking it, she breathed a sigh of relief. It's good that everything is alright!

I was so scared!

She had finally made it to a better life, but what if something terrible happened, especially the terrible thing of having no offspring? What would she do then?

What will happen to her third son in the future?

Since everything is alright, then...

"Mute woman, when do you plan to have children?"
