When Wen Shu came out of the house, she saw Li Duo holding Wen Rou Rou's hand and waiting at the door.
"Shushu, you look so beautiful today."
Wen Rou Rou tilted her chubby little face up, her little mouth as sweet as honey.
Wen Shu couldn't help but chuckle, "My succulent looks good today too."
Wen Rou Rou was even happier, and a smile bloomed on her face like a cute little flower.
Wen Rou Rou grabbed Li Duo's hand with one hand and reached out with her other little hand to grab Wen Shu's hand. Then she walked happily along the road in the community, holding one hand at a time.
Wen Rou Rou walked in the middle, occasionally pulling on the hands of the two people, using their strength to lift her calves up, having a great time playing by herself.
It was around eight or nine in the morning. The elderly men and women who had just returned from grocery shopping were chatting in small groups in a shady spot when they saw Wen Shu and a man taking her son out.
The neighbor, Aunt Zhang, curled her lip and said, "Wen Shu has found a stepfather for her son. Are there really people willing to be stepfathers these days?"
The old lady next to her exclaimed, "Oh, that young man is quite handsome."
Upon closer inspection, Aunt Zhang's eyes lit up. Wasn't this the son-in-law she had chosen last time?
Aunt Zhang rushed over and greeted Li Duo warmly, "Oh, young man, you're finally here again! You asked for my daughter's contact information, why did you leave that night?"
As she spoke, Aunt Zhang took out her phone to add Li Duo's contact information; she couldn't let him get away this time.
Aunt Zhang held her phone, staring intently at Li Duo's face, determined not to give up until she got his contact information.
This young man is good-looking, tall and handsome, and has a charming demeanor. You can tell he comes from a well-off family.
Upon seeing this, Wen Shu pulled Wen Rou Rou aside, clearly ready to watch the show.
Li Duo: "..."
He glanced at Wen Shu, then turned to Aunt Zhang and said, "Excuse me, Auntie, I like good-looking people."
Aunt Zhang paused for a moment, then quickly said, "What's the use of being good-looking? Being good-looking can't put food on the table."
"Young man, let me tell you from my own experience, those pretty girls often have messy private lives."
"What do you mean by getting pregnant out of wedlock, or having one boyfriend after another? You're so immoral."
"Besides, what difference does it make whether it looks good or not? They're all women when the lights are off, so aren't they all the same?"
Aunt Zhang's words really offended Wen Shu.
She was clearly implying that Wen Shu had an immoral private life and was pregnant out of wedlock.
"My daughter may not be as pretty as those young vixens, but she has regular features, and she works at a bank, which is a stable job with a very high income."
"Women are judged not only by their looks, but also by their inner qualities and abilities, don't you think?"
Wen Shu got angry.
You know, with so many elderly people there, a single casual gossip from them can spread throughout the entire neighborhood.
Behind Zhang's back, this old lady has talked a lot of nonsense about her and spread rumors about her.
Now, in front of her and Rou Rou, they still dare to make snide remarks about her. Wen Shu won't let this go.
Wen Shu immediately said, "Aunt Zhang, what are you saying? Looks are something you're born with. How is being good-looking a sin?"
"If you think she looks this good, then I see that Sister Peach also had double eyelid surgery, and it turned out really well and naturally. She's much prettier than before. Why didn't you try to dissuade her?"
"I've heard that banks are a mess. Aren't you afraid that after Sister Peach gets double eyelid surgery and becomes prettier, she'll attract the attention of those unscrupulous people in the bank?"
"Sister Peach is not married yet and is easily tempted by outside temptations. For Sister Peach's future, you must keep a close eye on her!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the elderly men and women around immediately became abuzz with gossip.
"If you put it that way, Peach is indeed much prettier than before. Didn't she used to have puffy eyes? I've noticed her eyes look better recently, and she also got a new hairstyle; she looks like a completely different person."
"The bank is in chaos again. I heard from my son that a branch manager next door bullied a young female teller..."
Aunt Zhang immediately became agitated, "Wen Shu, what nonsense are you spouting? Who are you talking about? You're involved in some ambiguous relationship with someone. And you're even making things up about my daughter?"
Wen Shu said, "Aunt Zhang, why are you in such a hurry? If you don't want people to know, then don't do it in the first place. If your daughter is upright and honest, why are you afraid of people gossiping about her? Don't you think so?"
The original target was strength, but in the blink of an eye, the target became Aunt Zhang's daughter, and the old men and women immediately started discussing the changes in Aunt Zhang's daughter.
The more they talked, the more they felt that Aunt Zhang's daughter was not as simple and honest as before.
Seeing that the target had changed, Wen Shu took Wen Rou Rou's hand and said, "Rou Rou, let's go."
Li Duo was about to leave when Aunt Zhang, unwilling to let go of this eligible bachelor, hurriedly stopped him, saying, "Young man, let me tell you, Wen Shu has a terrible reputation in our neighborhood!"
"You mustn't fall for her tricks! Her son's origins are unknown; we don't even know which random man he had with!"
Li Duo glanced at Wen Shu and Rou Rou's backs and said to Aunt Wen, "Auntie, I am that wild man."
Aunt Zhang was stunned. "W-what?"
Li Duo replied with a smile, "I mean, I am Wen Xingzhou's father."
Aunt Zhang's eyes widened in astonishment, and the elderly people around her also perked up their ears upon hearing this.
"That's not right. No man was present when Wen Shu gave birth."
Li Duo said, "Because I was working abroad at that time. Wen Shu was raising the child all by herself, and she was very disappointed in me."
