The principal came out to inspect the classrooms and found the first grade classrooms empty.
"Ms. Han, where are your students? Did they all go to the restroom?"
Children often can't hold their urine and will raise their hands to go to the toilet halfway through class.
Han Shuyun didn't hide anything, "Principal, they didn't go to the toilet, they went to listen to gossip. I figured it would be a waste of time to run and call them back, so I just let them be."
"Don't worry, Principal, I'll definitely punish them later." She deliberately put on a serious face.
Principal: ...This year's students have such diverse interests.
He waved his hand, "Punish them lightly. The children are still young; education and guidance are the priority."
"Okay, Principal, I understand."
Shishi tiptoed behind the captain, exuding a sneaky vibe.
As I walked, I realized I knew the road quite well, until the person in front of me went into Wan Jiaxin's house.
She quickly took the first spot on the left side of the courtyard entrance, squatted down, and pricked up her ears.
The other children followed suit, squatting in rows on both sides of the doorway.
Wan Jiaxin's mother went out to work, while her grandmother and father stayed home to sort through their catch from the beachcombing trip.
Grandma Wan's face darkened upon seeing Sun Xiaoqing, her expression filled with disgust.
What are you doing here?
Wan Tiezhu glanced at her once and then looked away, pretending she didn't exist. He greeted the captain and continued what he was doing while keeping an eye on his mother.
He's not fully recovered, and the old lady has been much stronger these days, but we still need to be careful.
Sun Xiaoqing didn't care about their attitude; her eyes showed not only excitement but also pride.
She came here only to prevent Wan Yinzhu from bothering her after he came out.
Finally, she no longer had to stay in this godforsaken place and could go back to the city to enjoy her life. She wouldn't allow anyone to ruin her good days.
"I've come to tell you that I'm going back to the city with Ah Lin. Wan Yinzhu and I didn't get a marriage certificate, and I have nothing to do with the Wan family anymore, so don't worry about me."
Grandma Wan snorted, "You have nothing to do with our family anymore. You don't need to come here. You can get lost."
Although Bai's mother didn't like this second-hand daughter-in-law, she couldn't resist her son's affection for her, and since she already had a grandson—her eldest grandson—she couldn't bear to throw him away.
If someone with ulterior motives finds out, her son will also be in trouble, so she can only grit her teeth and accept it.
But despite her dislike for it, she couldn't stand it when outsiders acted so arrogantly in front of her.
“I told you, old lady, you’re too aggressive. Be careful not to hurt your health. Xiao Qing is now a member of the Bai family. You have no right to scold her.”
Grandma Wan scoffed, "Only your family would want this kind of stuff. I really don't care. Get as far away from me as possible. Goodbye, and don't bother seeing me off."
She had almost forgotten about this person and couldn't understand why he had come back. "You can go back to the city, so what's it to her?"
Is she here to show off? To make herself regret getting rid of her as her daughter-in-law?
Ha, she doesn't care at all.
If you don't even want your son, what does your daughter-in-law matter?
"You..." Bai's mother considered herself a city person, not a rural shrew, and couldn't bring herself to argue. She was so angry that her face turned red, and she glared at Sun Xiaoqing.
"It's all because of you. I told you not to come, but you insisted on coming to get yelled at. You're such a jerk."
"Mom, I... I just wanted to..."
"Xiao Qing, you don't need to feel wronged. I know what you mean. The Wan family doesn't understand your kindness, but I do."
“You just came to say goodbye to the Wan family out of kindness. If they don’t appreciate your good intentions, then so be it. Let’s go. We won’t be coming to this place again. There’s no need to put up with other people’s attitudes.”
"Mom, you should say less. You're waking up your eldest grandson."
Bai Lin's good-natured demeanor made Wan Jia's mother and son, as well as the team leader, feel annoyed.
If you cherished Sun Xiaoqing so much, how could you have just watched her get married and leave Nanwa Village alone?
Sun Xiaoqing was both happy and proud to have a man protecting her.
"Okay, I'm not wronged. Let's go. This lousy place will have nothing to do with me anymore."
She thought she was heading towards wealth and prosperity, but little did she know that leaving Nanwa Village was like entering hell.
Bai Lin came because he was impotent; he only wanted a descendant to continue his family line, nothing more.
As for Sun Xiaoqing, she's a used woman who's already been slept with. If he takes her back, he can't sleep with her, so what's the point of taking her back?
Of course, we should make the best use of everything.
He needs the child to cover up his unspeakable secret, and after using Sun Xiaoqing, he can make money from her, creating a persona of her abandoning her husband and children while he remains chaste and unmarried for her—killing three birds with one stone.
Like Sun Xiaoqing, they came to the Wan family to get rid of Wan Yinzhu's entanglement.
Only he knew about this plan; even his own mother was unaware of it. She thought her son was bewitched by Sun Xiaoqing and had been cursing him all the way from the city.
Bai's mother snorted and, carrying her grandson, led the way out of the yard.
Just as he was about to mutter a curse under his breath, he was startled by the coordinated movements of the gossip scouts at the door, and almost dropped the child in his arms.
Nine people squatted down, their heads tilted towards the entrance, their hands bent and placed near their ears, then pressed against the wall, their expressions very serious, as if they were performing some solemn ceremony.
"Mom, be careful, don't drop my son..."
Hearing the exclamation, Bai Lin rushed outside, but before he could finish speaking, he too was startled by the Boy Scouts and let out a screaming duck.
Sun Xiaoqing was confused. What was at the door?
The familiar faces and the familiar way they listened to gossip made her grit her teeth in hatred.
It was this wretched woman and those few brats who caused her to suffer humiliation back then.
She was about to complain to her husband when the captain stopped her.
"Little Fatty, it's class time, what are you doing here?"
Little Fatty blurted out, "Grandpa, this class is a play class."
