Chen Qiuxia came out to check when she saw that the person hadn't returned after so long.

When she saw the deck chair destroyed and her three younger brothers hiding behind trees in fright, she was also furious, but she was a patient person and asked Zhao Shi with restraint, "Second sister-in-law, what happened?"

Zhao said irritably, "It's exactly what you saw!"

Chen Qiuxia clenched her fist, then relaxed it, and asked again, "Why did my second sister-in-law destroy my recliner and threaten my brother? This doesn't make sense, does it?"

Zhao clicked her tongue and said dismissively, "Are you sure this is your recliner?"

When Chen Jinhai saw that his older sister had arrived and that he had someone to back him up, he became bolder and ran to Chen Qiuxia's side, reverting to his arrogant demeanor.

"That's my sister's dowry. You'll have to pay for it if you damage it!"

Zhao, enraged, laughed and asked Chen Qiuxia, "Eldest daughter of the Chen family, is this really your dowry? Did you buy it?"

Before Chen Qiuxia could speak, Chen Jinhai interjected, "It's definitely true! Absolutely true!"

Zhao stopped smiling. "I only want to ask Miss Chen, tell me, is this recliner part of your dowry?"

At this moment, Chen Qiuxia hid behind her younger brother, her head down and eyes lowered, looking as if someone had bullied her, and she did not respond for a long time.

Seeing that his older sister had been wronged, Chen Jinhai shouted, "What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear me? Look how you've made my sister almost cry! You've gone too far!"

The noise attracted many villagers. Only a fool wouldn't watch a show like this!

Zhao had finally seen through the true nature of the Chen siblings, so she was no longer angry. Instead, she became even more indifferent. Since they wanted to watch the show, then let's make the show bigger!

Suddenly, Zhao's expression changed. She became very kind and approachable, easy to talk to, and casually boasted as if she were bragging to someone. She asked with concern, "Miss Chen, how much did you pay for your dowry? It's not very durable. It broke like that with just one touch. You've been ripped off! You'll have to be more careful when buying dowries next time you get married."

The onlookers craned their necks to look at the recliner on the ground, and they all agreed with what Zhao said, without paying attention to the hidden meaning in Zhao's words.

The Mo family waited for a long time but Zhao did not return. Fearing that something had happened, they tied up Mo Yunmei and threw her into the house before rushing off to find Zhao.

Seeing so many people gathered together from afar, including Zhao Shi, they were all terrified and rushed over, hoping nothing bad would happen!

They rushed over and saw that nothing serious had happened as they had imagined, which put their minds at ease.

When Chen Qiuxia realized that things had changed and were no longer in their favor, she covered her face and wept, hoping to gain everyone's sympathy.

This tactic of hers was always successful; she got so many things she wanted by using tears that she couldn't even count them herself.

Just as the onlookers were about to turn against her, Zhao burst into tears, so heartbroken that her tears flowed freely and naturally.

The crowd was stunned, even Chen Qiuxia was taken aback and forgot to whimper.

That's unconventional!

Someone couldn't help but ask, "Sister-in-law Mo, what's wrong?"

As Zhao wiped away her tears, she recounted how poor the Mo family used to be, how they were starving and poorly clothed, and how difficult their lives had been. She explained that their lives had only recently begun to improve. The Mo family, having improved their situation, hadn't forgotten to help their fellow villagers, teaching them how to make rice noodles. However, some people couldn't bear to see the Mo family doing well and kept encouraging the ignorant Mo family members to squander their wealth. The Mo family had offended people while helping others; they were so sad and heartbroken. They wondered if the Mo family should keep good things to themselves from now on!

Oh dear! She was crying so hard!

We're all from the village; if something happens in someone's family, wouldn't everyone know?

The Mo family was indeed very poor in the past, so no one dared to approach them for fear of being asked to lend money! How could someone so poor possibly repay a loan?!

The Mo family has indeed only recently started to recover, and they even taught the villagers how to make rice noodles, which is obvious to everyone and cannot be denied. Most people are grateful to them.

Hearing that someone had done such a disservice, most people were indignant. Wasn't this ungrateful? They had caused trouble and implicated the entire village. If the Mo family didn't include them in any good opportunities in the future, wouldn't they miss out on a lot of money? This was unacceptable!

A small number of people disagree, feeling that the Mo family is just making empty promises and trying to help the villagers, but there's nothing to it!

Someone countered, "How could there not be? This morning, some people dressed as merchants came to the village entrance to ask, and I happened to be there and heard them!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at the man, and those nearby leaned over to ask him what the merchant had to say.

"Liu Qi, tell us quickly, everyone wants to know!"

Liu Qi, having experienced being the center of attention, felt quite pleased with himself. "The merchant asked if there were any families in our village who knew how to make rice noodles. He was interested in buying some and had heard that someone in our village knew how, so he came to inquire and see if it was true!"

The onlookers asked nervously, "So what are you going to say?"

Seeing everyone surrounding him with expectant faces, Liu Qi felt a great sense of satisfaction. "Of course we answered yes!"

Just one sentence was enough to pique the curiosity of the onlookers, who couldn't wait to ask, "What did the businessman say later?"

Liu Qi stopped keeping everyone in suspense and was also very excited. "Someone brought out some dried rice flour to show the merchant. The merchant said that's how it is. In the end, he said he would bring people over tomorrow. If it's good, he plans to buy it from our village!"

I finally heard the answer I wanted!

Everyone was so happy that they forgot what had happened before. Even Chen Qiuxia, who was listening attentively, forgot to whine and her current situation.

Zhao, wiping away her tears, spoke up at the opportune moment, "See? Our Mo family didn't lie to the villagers, did we?"

"No, no! The Mo family didn't lie to us. They taught us how to make rice noodles so we could have some income. We are very grateful to them!"

"That person who instigated the destruction of the Mo family is wicked; such a person is a scourge on the village!"

"Yes! They're trying to sow discord among us! Maybe they've been bribed by people from other villages and are trying to ruin our village!"

"Very likely! They saw that the people in our village can make rice noodles and are making money, so they're envious and jealous!"

The onlookers started talking amongst themselves, using their imaginations, and the Mo family didn't need to say anything more.

The Mo family members who arrived later only served as background figures, supporting the Zhao family, without saying a single word!

Hey! Whatever you say goes!

The onlookers aren't all fools; bystanders see things more clearly, and most of them have sharp minds, especially when it comes to other people's affairs. They seem quite interested and their minds work very quickly!

This may be human nature to enjoy watching excitement and gossiping.

Chen Qiuxia never expected things to go wrong today. Her weapon had failed to work, and her three younger brothers were also dragged into the limelight.

She panicked for the first time. Faced with the out-of-control situation, there was no one in front of her to shield her; her brothers had all hidden behind her.

"You shameless bastard, how dare you bully my child!"
