It was village chief Liu Daqiang's shout that stopped Zhu Xiuqin's noisy behavior.
Then he looked at her seriously and said, "Zhu Xiuqin, stop making a fuss. She's already married into the family, and you're the mother-in-law, so you should be more understanding of your daughter-in-law."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "Besides, no matter what, the Su family has been helping your family all these years. Now they're even marrying their daughter into your family, not minding that Cunpu is in poor health. On the contrary, how can you be so unreasonable!"
His tone became more forceful, carrying a clear sense of reproach.
"And what you said about Shen Zhiyu, who beat his brother until he vomited blood just for a piece of clothing, is simply ridiculous!"
Finally, he made the final decision: "From now on, you all need to live your lives honestly, avoid causing trouble, and stop creating problems for me."
Zhu Xiuqin stood there motionless for a long time, her eyes glazed over, as if she hadn't had time to react.
Why would the village chief, who is usually fair and just, support Su Qingzhi at this time?
Thinking of this, she felt a surge of resentment and anger rising in her chest.
My whole body started to tremble slightly, and I almost couldn't catch my breath.
They just finished scolding Zhu Xiuqin and her son.
The village chief, Liu Daqiang, then waved his hand, signaling the onlookers to disperse.
"Alright, alright, the matter is resolved. Everyone, stop watching the commotion and go home."
The onlookers laughed and went home.
The atmosphere quickly quieted down.
Only Zhu Xiuqin remained standing there.
Her eyes, filled with resentment, were fixed on Su Qingzhi's departing figure.
Just then, a low voice came from beside him, that of his son, Shen Zhiyu.
He whispered in her ear, "Mom, I've already told you not to cause trouble. If Yuelan finds out about this, won't she completely break off all ties with me?"
At that moment, Liu Yuelan was not in the village.
—She is the apple of the eye of village chief Liu Daqiang.
I went to the town on business a few days ago and haven't returned yet.
What she cares about most is face and reputation.
She had been secretly having an affair with Shen Zhiyu for a long time, but outsiders were unaware of this relationship.
Su Qingzhi ignored the mother and son, turned around and squatted down, carefully helping Shen Cunpu, who had fallen to the ground, and said softly, "Husband, shall we go home now? It's cold and windy outside."
The couple held hands and slowly walked towards the door.
Pass through the old, mottled wooden door in the courtyard.
They entered their small hut.
Su Qingzhi scooped out half a bowl of clear water from the edge of the water vat and gently handed it to Shen Cunpu, who was lying on the bed.
A faint, flowing aura could be seen in the water.
It was the spiritual spring water from her secret space.
It can not only heal wounds and nourish the body, but also nourish the meridians.
Shen Cunpu sat up slightly and obediently drank the bowl of spiritual spring water.
The moment the spring water slid into my throat.
He suddenly felt a warm sensation surging through his body.
That warmth quickly spread throughout my entire body.
The lingering pain caused by my old ailment seemed to have eased considerably.
A sense of surprise suddenly arose in his heart.
Is this some kind of miraculous elixir?
The effect is amazing!
He was about to ask Su Qingzhi about the secret origin of the spring water.
Suddenly, a roar came from outside, breaking the tranquility inside.
"I'm afraid of her? Dream on!"
Zhu Xiuqin roared angrily outside.
"Your older brother has been bewitched by that vixen, he doesn't even care about us, his mother, anymore! It's a joke that he still wants to rely on her!"
Then, she angrily said, "I think our house will be torn down sooner or later! She's ruined everything by herself!"
The atmosphere inside the room froze for a moment, as both Su Qingzhi and Shen Cunpu heard what was being said outside the door.
They exchanged a glance, both seeing the heaviness in each other's eyes.
Footsteps sounded outside the east room, and the two entered.
Then, a low, gloomy voice chuckled coldly.
"That poisonous woman."
That was Shen Zhiyu's voice, low and almost a murmur, spoken through gritted teeth.
The mother and son stormed into the house, both furious.
The atmosphere inside the room immediately became heavy.
Even after they sat down, their anger had not subsided.
Zhu Xiuqin slammed her hand on the table.
A loud bang startled a sparrow in the corner.
"Zhiyu, this won't do!"
Her voice was low, yet still ruthless, as she looked at her son with a cold gaze.
"Your older brother is completely infatuated with that woman and won't stand on our side at all. You need to figure out a way to get rid of her as soon as possible!"
She spoke coldly, her tone ruthless.
"mom……"
Shen Zhiyu's voice trembled, his lips quivered slightly, and a hint of unease appeared in his eyes.
That kind of thing...
He never actually did anything like that, things that couldn't be done in the light of day.
"What are you afraid of?"
Zhu Xiuqin, however, did not back down.
She quickly suppressed it again.
"Don't forget, she's just the daughter of a poor family. What trouble can she possibly cause? There will be no divine retribution or punishment! As long as we do it cleverly, no one will be able to find any clues. Just listen to me, and you won't go wrong!"
Her eyes were cold and ruthless as she said this.
After listening to his mother's words, Shen Zhiyu finally made up his mind and nodded heavily.
Yes, his mother is right!
Why is he still hesitating?
If we don't teach Su Qingzhi a lesson...
That woman really thinks she's something special!
