Su Miantang hurried home, but before he got home, he heard a lot of people gathered at the door.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, look at that! That Su Lao Er is so unlucky! He's actually been targeted by that fickle Zhang Zhiqing!"
One of the old women shook her head and said with regret.
Another woman quickly chimed in, "That's right! Didn't that second beggar spread the word everywhere that the child in Zhang Zhiqing's belly was his own?
Why is Zhang Zhiqing setting her sights on Su Laoer now? Could it be that she wants to have her cake and eat it too?
"Oh my! Speaking of the situation at this beggar's house, they are absolutely destitute, extremely poor!
Unlike Su Laoer's family, although they are not rich, they still live a comfortable life. This educated youth must be blinded by greed, leaving Su Laoer alone and getting entangled with that bastard!
Another old woman couldn't help but interject.
At this time, the old woman who spoke first frowned and said worriedly:
"Based on something like this, it's a wonder the Su family would agree! Who would want their son to marry such a dirty, notorious woman?"
The people around nodded in agreement: "That's true! If this gets out, where will the Su family put their face?"
"Besides, you know what? That educated young man Zhang is quite arrogant!
She even threatened our village's team leader, saying that if she wasn't properly resettled, she would run to the commune and post big-character posters, accusing the people of Xiahe Village of immorality and forcing her into prostitution!
Someone lowered his voice and revealed the secret mysteriously.
When everyone heard this, they were immediately shocked:
"Oh my! This is terrible! If she really succeeds, our Xiahe Village may not be recognized as an advanced village this year!"
"It's not just as simple as not being rated as advanced! I heard that the tasks assigned by the superiors next year will be much heavier because of this! What should we do?" Some people began to worry.
Just as everyone was discussing how to deal with this, a light cough suddenly occurred:
"Ahem...Aunties, please make way. I need to go home."
It turned out that Su Miantang couldn't stand the gossip of these old women and couldn't help but interrupt them.
What a joke!
This is simply a huge joke, not funny at all!
She actually wanted to sacrifice her second brother's life happiness so easily just because it affected the interests of the whole village. What was her basis for doing so?
Who is that guy named Zhang Zhiqing?
She had to go and take a look today to see what the other person looked like or what abilities he had!
At this moment, everyone turned their heads to look and saw that it was the younger sister of the Su family who was returning to her parents' home with a basket full of things on her back.
Seeing her appear, the people who were talking non-stop just now suddenly became silent, and each of them stood there as if they were cast under a spell.
Obviously, everything they said just now was heard by the young lady of the Su family without missing a word!
For a moment, these people were like children who had done something wrong, with embarrassment and shame on their faces, and they could only retreat quietly and disperse.
It was at this critical juncture that the tightly closed door of the Su family slowly opened.
The first person who caught my eye was Ge Qin, and behind her stood the captain with an embarrassed look on his face.
Ge Qin said firmly, "Captain, my family will never agree to what you just said. Just give up on it! I won't keep you here any longer. Please do as you please!"
Upon hearing this, the captain's face suddenly turned ashen, then quickly turned pale, and repeated this alternation several times.
In his opinion, sacrificing the interests of just one family can exchange for the peace and comfort of the entire brigade or even the entire village. He does not think that there is anything wrong with his decision!
However, just as the two were deadlocked, a clear and pleasant cry suddenly rang out:
"Mom~"
It turned out to be Su Miantang's gentle voice. This call just broke the tense atmosphere at the moment and eased the originally tense situation a little.
"Tangtang, why are you back alone? Come in quickly."
When Ge Qin heard her daughter's voice, her slightly angry face instantly brightened up.
"Since your daughter is back, I won't stay any longer.
However, you have to think carefully about what I just told you!
After all, we are all from the same village, and we can’t write two ‘Su’ characters with one stroke…”
Seeing that the situation was not right, the captain knew that he would get nothing good if he stayed any longer, so he quickly found a way out.
At this moment, the mother and daughter had no intention of paying any attention to him at all. They were just being intimate with each other, as if everything around them had nothing to do with them.
Immediately afterwards, there was a muffled "bang" sound, and the door closed tightly, locking the captain outside.
The captain looked helpless and could only shake his head and sigh deeply.
He knew in his heart that it was understandable that Ge Qin would be so rude to him because they were in different positions.
But when he thought of the ultimatum issued by the commune leaders, he couldn't help feeling a headache and worry. He was really in a dilemma!
Why!
"Mom, I heard on the way back that Zhang Zhiqing is so bold that he actually wants my second brother to take over!"
Su Miantang stamped her feet as she spoke. If she hadn't come back, she didn't know if this kind of thing would happen to her family again.
"Don't worry, your father and I won't give in. Whoever wants to marry this kind of woman can do so. We will not accept a bastard of unknown origin as our Su family's grandson."
Ge Qin said angrily, her tone full of disgust.
This educated young man Zhang first caused a scene at the wedding of the eldest lady's nephew, and then inexplicably changed his mind and asked her son to take responsibility.
You’re dreaming!
It's not like her son can't find a wife. He came home a few days ago and said...
"Girl, let's talk in the room. I heard your second brother say..."
"No hurry, Mom. I just went to town today to submit my manuscript and got paid. I also went to the county to do some shopping. I found a bargain and bought two watches. No tickets are required and the price is low.
I bought these to show my filial piety to you and dad. Please put them away first. I will be home for lunch and we will have plenty of time to chat..."
Su Miantang's words diverted her mother's attention.
"Watch? Let me see~"
When Ge Qin heard this, she became interested.
But after seeing the things in the backpack, he couldn't help but say:
"It's not your turn to show respect to your father and me. Just keep the money and don't buy anything for us. You still have children to give birth to, and you'll need money a lot."
