Chapter 80 It really was you.
Everyone glanced outside and saw Zhu Qiangying stagger in, her clothes still wet with snow, looking quite disheveled.
Seeing this, Xia Zhenzhen quickly went over to help her.
"How are you, Qiangying? Does it hurt from the fall?"
"It's alright, it's alright, I just slipped."
"Look at you, watch where you're going, you're always so careless."
Xia Zhenzhen was still muttering to herself. Zhu Qiangying forced a smile, but when she looked up, she saw Liang Manxiu squinting at her. Startled, she quickly turned her head away. Everyone else had gone about their own business after she said she had slipped.
Liang Manxiu and Qiao Wangshu exchanged a glance, both feeling that something was off about Zhu Zhiqing.
In the middle of the night, in the grove.
"Please don't bother me. I didn't mean to, I really didn't mean to. I just wanted to teach your mother a lesson for stealing someone else's sweetheart. I apologize to you, I'll burn paper money for you, I'll burn it for you every year on holidays, so that you can be reborn into a good family in your next life, okay? Please don't come looking for me, please don't come looking for me."
"Bless, bless!"
The kneeling person kept kowtowing, bowing repeatedly with hands clasped together.
Suddenly, she heard a rustling sound, like snakes crawling or someone stepping on the snow. But human footsteps wouldn't be that light. The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became. She screamed and ran forward a few steps, then tripped. Through her armpit, she saw something dark that looked like four... six legs.
She was so startled that she almost fainted.
"Well, it really was you. I knew something was wrong with you back then, Zhu Qiangying. I never thought you were so cruel to a pregnant woman."
"I...it wasn't me, it wasn't me, I didn't do it, don't come looking for revenge!"
Seeing that she was talking nonsense, Qiao Wangshu slapped her across the face. The moonlight shone on the snow and illuminated the person's face.
Only then did she realize who the person was.
"You, it's you, not ghosts, there are no ghosts."
"Hehehe, how many bad things have you done that you're so afraid of ghosts?"
Knowing it was a person, Zhu Qiangying calmed down for a moment, stood up and left. What was there to be confused about now? All the stories she heard at dusk about burning paper money and being haunted by ghosts were lies.
"Stop right there! You have no grudge against Liping, why did you do such a cruel thing? Why did you hurt her? She almost lost her life along with her unborn child, do you know that?"
“No, I just wanted to teach her a lesson. I didn’t mean to harm her child, no.”
"You still dare to argue with me? She was even hospitalized because of this. Get out of here and go to the brigade leader's house. We're going to let everyone know how black-hearted you are."
"I'm not going, I'm not going. I just shoveled some soot from the bottom of the pot by the kitchen door. She lost her balance and she's blaming me for it?"
Qiao Wangshu and Liang Manxiu pulled on Zhu Qiangying, and the man's grip was particularly strong.
Whether you admit it or not, Zhu Qiangying is right.
That kitchen belonged to the entire educated youth settlement, not just Wang Liping's. Feng Zhengyang had put soot from the bottom of the pot on the path to prevent his wife and children from slipping, but some people didn't like it and just scraped it off. It was reasonable, not sentimental.
No one has any reason to accommodate Wang Liping and her husband.
"Even if what you said is true, can you honestly say that you didn't do it on purpose when Wang Liping slipped?"
Zhu Qiangying snorted coldly, shook off Liang Manxiu and Qiao Wangshu's restraints, and stared intently at Shen Yuzhu.
This is the most troublesome one among them.
"I don't understand what you mean?"
"You just said it's Liping who stole someone's sweetheart. Ever since Wang Liping went to the countryside, she has never been involved with any men. She just buries herself in her work, focusing on cultivating the assigned fields well, just wanting to earn more food and work points to make life easier for her family. The only time she had an accident was with Feng Zhengyang. What, what sweetheart are you talking about? Could it be Feng Zhengyang? You like him?"
Zhu Qiangying's face flushed red instantly, and she reached out to push her in anger. Shen Yuzhu took two steps back, causing Zhu Qiangying to fall to the ground.
Then, in a fit of rage, she retorted, "What the hell are you talking about? I like a weak, pretty boy like him? What are you thinking?"
"Who is it that asked you to stand up for them?"
“It’s Xia Zhenzhen.” As soon as Liang Manxiu finished speaking, Zhu Qiangying suddenly looked at her.
It seems I guessed right.
"Alright, for the sake of my good sister, I'll definitely drag you to the brigade leader's house. Let the whole production team see for themselves that our kind-hearted and beautiful Xia Zhenzhen is jealous of Wang and Feng's marriage and has instructed you to harm Wang's child. Tell me, how will the villagers and production team view Xia Zhenzhen after this?"
Zhu Qiangying was furious and stomped his feet several times.
"Shut up, shut up! I did this, and I'll take responsibility for it. It has nothing to do with Xia Zhiqing. Don't cause her any trouble. It has nothing to do with her. Blame Wang Liping for insisting on marrying Feng Zhengyang. And Feng Zhengyang is a piece of trash too. He used to fawn over Xia Zhiqing, but after sleeping with Wang Liping, he turned his back on Xia Zhiqing. Bah! Shameless bastards! Both of them are shameless."
"!!!"
“........”
Is this even human language? Please tell me.
"Shut up, Qiang Ying."
The group turned around and saw Xia Zhenzhen walking over, stumbling and crying as she went.
Qiao Wangshu and Liang Manxiu exchanged a glance. They had secretly followed Zhu Qiangying after she got up. They had noticed that no one in the dormitory was awake. When did Xia Zhenzhen follow them?
"Zhenzhen, you, how did you get here? You knew everything?"
“Why did you do such a thing? You almost harmed Wang Zhiqing and her son. Feng Zhiqing did show me affection, but I never accepted it. He married Wang Zhiqing because of his responsibility. As a man, he had to bear the responsibility. It’s all fate. No one can be blamed. Besides, Wang Zhiqing was also a victim.”
Zhu Qiangying disliked Wang Liping to begin with, so she wouldn't listen to anything she said.
Seeing Liang Manxiu shivering from the cold, Qiao Wangshu ignored the two people still crying on the ground, grabbed Zhu Qiangying and walked forward. No matter what, this matter had to be explained to the Wang couple.
“Qiao, we admit our mistake, we admit our mistake. Don’t bring Zhu along. If this gets out of hand, how can she stay in the production team? No matter what, it’s Wang and Feng’s problem. They are the ones who suffered the most. You can’t help them make decisions, right? I’ll accept your apologies and even your kowtows. Please don’t push things too far. We’re all educated youth!”
Xia Zhenzhen grabbed Zhu Qiangying's arm tightly, preventing her from being dragged away.
Shen Yuzhu patted Qiao Wangshu and Liang Manxiu, took out a tape recorder from her pocket, and played it for them.
Xia Zhenzhen, Zhu Qiangying, and the Sun family's expressions changed drastically as they stared in disbelief at the small object in Shen Yuzhu's hand.
