Chapter 169 Not Good Enough of Me
It was just time to get off work in the evening, and the neighbors around heard the noise and quickly came out of their homes.
Just then, I saw Su Nanzhi, with an expressionless face, holding a large machete in her hand, approaching an embarrassed old lady step by step.
"Xiao Su, what's going on?"
Director Hao didn't expect that he would encounter such a thing just before getting off work. He cursed in his heart, but forced a smile on his face, fearing that Su Nanzhi would wield a machete and kill everyone.
"Let's talk it over nicely. Be careful not to hurt yourself with that knife."
With more people around, Huang Xiumei, who was afraid just now, suddenly became confident. She got up from the ground and hid behind Director Hao.
"Comrades, Su Nanzhi is furious because I caught her messing around with a man."
As soon as these words were spoken, the voices of discussion around stopped instantly, and everyone's gossipy eyes instantly fell on Su Nanzhi.
There are no good ways to relax and have fun in this day and age, and these romantic scandals can be said to be something that most people enjoy hearing.
Although Director Hao was also curious, Su Nanzhi was the orphan of a martyr, a warrior who bravely fought against human traffickers, and was acquainted with public security comrades. Her excitement was not something to behold.
"Big sister, who are you?"
Huang Xiumei thought of the task Huang Baogui had given her. Her eyes rolled and she said with a sad look, "I am Su Nanzhi's adoptive mother, Huang Xiumei."
As soon as the word "foster mother" came out, everyone showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.
After all, everyone lived in Baihua Lane. After Su Minglang passed away, Su Nanzhi was adopted and taken away by someone.
As soon as Huang Xiumei said this, some neighbors who had good memory and had seen her at Su Minglang's funeral immediately recognized her.
"Sister Huang, I haven't seen you for many years. You haven't changed much."
Some people with average memories also thought Huang Xiumei looked familiar. "Sister Huang, were you in Baihua Lane a while ago?"
Huang Xiumei's heart skipped a beat, as Huang Baogui asked her to keep her relationship with him a secret.
"I haven't been here for more than ten years."
"Isn't it that something happened to Su Nanzhi after she came to Zhoushan County for so long and she hasn't returned yet? That's why I came here?"
"I just didn't expect that I would catch Su Nanzhi having an affair."
Huang Xiumei was afraid that others would ask her about her, so she immediately turned the conversation to Su Nanzhi.
Romantic gossip was always a hot topic of gossip. When people heard about someone having an affair, their eyes lit up.
It was just that they had just made a mistake that morning and were accused of bullying the families of martyrs, and were also taught a lesson by the public security comrades. Now they were just curious and not gossiping.
Huang Xiumei was somewhat surprised by the lack of response from the crowd, so she could only continue, "Although Su Nanzhi has been dishonest since childhood, I didn't expect her to have an affair with a strange man in the city. People like her should be arrested and criticized."
Su Nanzhi raised her eyebrows and just watched her performance quietly.
"You have to... you have to know that Su Nanzhi is my son's fiancée. She's having an affair with a strange man. This is a betrayal of a military marriage."
Thinking of what Huang Baogui had taught her, Huang Xiumei became more and more confident as she spoke.
She had forgotten what Huang Baogui had taught him. She had not confessed to Huang Baogui that Qin Lie was already married.
Su Nanzhi was almost laughing at Huang Xiumei's stupidity. "Huang Xiumei, do Qin Lie and Qin Youliang know that you're talking nonsense outside?"
Huang Xiumei was stunned and shuddered when she thought of Qin Youliang.
Su Nanzhi looked at everyone who looked like they were enjoying themselves but didn't dare to speak, and said to Huang Xiumei, "You said I was having an affair? Who are you talking about?"
As she spoke, she pointed at Gu Xizhou and Dazheng behind her.
"Is it him or him?"
Everyone looked in the direction she pointed, and when they saw Gu Xizhou and Da Zheng, they all gasped.
Although neither of them is from Baihua Lane, they don't go to work every day and act like hooligans. It's obvious that they are not serious people.
They would usually avoid the two of them when they saw them, and they were even full of complaints about Huang Baogui for recruiting them into Baihua Lane. However, even so, they usually did not dare to offend them.
Although Huang Xiumei was a little surprised by the reactions of the people in Baihua Lane, she just thought that people in the county probably didn't like gossip, and didn't think much about it.
She was about to nod.
Da Zheng snorted coldly, "You old woman, your eyesight is not good, I will take it out for you to see."
Although he was not afraid of Huang Xiumei and Su Nanzhi, having affairs between men and women was a serious crime in that era, and Dazheng did not want to deal with the management.
Huang Xiumei didn't expect that the seemingly honest Dazheng would say something so unpleasant. After being shocked, she glared at Dazheng angrily and pointed at Gu Xizhou who had been silent the whole time and said, "It's him. I just saw Su Nanzhi hugging him, and I..."
Huang Xiumei was halfway through her words, but after seeing the way Gu Xizhou was looking at her, she didn't dare to continue.
She always felt that if she continued talking, the strange man in front of her might kill her.
It was the first time that Gu Xizhou met Huang Xiumei, but when he heard Huang Xiumei say that she was Su Nanzhi's adoptive mother, he immediately realized that Huang Xiumei was Qin Lie's mother.
But he didn't expect that Qin Lie had already betrayed Su Nanzhi and married someone else, and Huang Xiumei still had the nerve to accuse Su Nanzhi of having an affair. It was just because of his mission that he didn't feel comfortable exposing Huang Xiumei's lies.
"Are you talking about me?"
He chuckled softly, and although there was a smile on his face, there was ice in his eyes, which made people's spines chill.
"Which eye did you see it with?"
Huang Xiumei's face turned pale. She had no doubt that if she really told the truth, the man in front of her would dig out her eyes. She couldn't help but take a step back, wanting to stay away from Gu Xizhou.
Gu Xizhou, however, approached her step by step with a fierce look on his face.
"I hate women the most. A woman like Su Nanzhi is not worthy of me. Are you, an old woman, trying to be a matchmaker for me?"
As he spoke, Gu Xizhou had already walked in front of Huang Xiumei.
"Why are you sneaking into our yard? Are you here to steal something?"
The gossipy eyes that were originally circling between Gu Xizhou and Su Nanzhi immediately fell on Huang Xiumei.
Gu Xizhou, a gangster, looks down on Su Nanzhi. Even if Su Nanzhi is not crazy, it is impossible for her to look down on her.
Huang Xiumei, who was accused of being sneaky by a gangster, was even more suspicious.
Su Nanzhi turned her head to look at Gu Xizhou, but happened to meet Gu Xizhou's gaze.
Focused, yet apologetic.
Su Nanzhi was stunned and glared at Gu Xizhou angrily.
If Gu Xizhou hadn't suddenly come to help her, Huang Xiumei would never have caught her.
Moreover, Gu Xizhou actually said that she was not worthy of him. Even if he said this to get out of the situation, Su Nanzhi still felt annoyed unconsciously.
"I'm certainly not worthy of some idle gay men. After all, I spend all my time building the country and my fiancé. I wouldn't be interested in just any random person."
