Chapter 2: Spreading rumors takes only a mouth, but debunking them takes a lot of legwork.



In her previous life, Meng Shuyun gave up her job for her family and devoted herself entirely to it.

Now that she's old and faded, she's naturally not as attractive as the widows outside.

It's good that you're back!

Meng Shuyun was worried about not being able to find someone else.

"Su Dahai, you still know how to get off that shameless vixen widow's belly! You reek of foxes, why didn't you die on top of her? Now you know to come back, do you really think I don't know about all the filth you've done?"

Su Xiangyang looked at his father in shock.

He had finally come back, and he was hoping his father would put in a good word for him. But when he saw that gloomy face, the image of his loving father crumbled little by little.

The widow Mother mentioned, is it Widow Qin from the east street who lost her husband at a young age?

She dresses up beautifully every day, and has a really hot figure!

The steel mill was on West Street. He had never understood why his father went to East Street before. It turned out he was going to Widow Qin's house!

I never expected his dad to be so energetic at his age!

Meng Shuyun walked into the room, looking decades younger, as if she had inexhaustible energy. She packed her things quickly and efficiently, tossing two suitcases at the feet of the father and son.

She said coldly, "Su Dahai, your current position was given to you by me. You're paying a thousand yuan for the job transfer. And you, Su Xiangyang, all these years, you've been living off the family."

Now that you're an adult, I have no obligation to support you. Take your things and get out of here.

Su Dahai's face turned ashen, and he said viciously, "Meng Shuyun, I think you've been living too comfortably. You just spew filth the moment you open your mouth. I work so hard to support the family, and when I come home, I don't even get a hot meal, and you still slander me. Don't you even respect me as the head of the household?!"

They all lived in the same compound, and if anyone made a commotion, everyone would rush over to watch.

"Yes, Aunt Meng, you can't just say things like 'no anus'. Everyone knows Old Su is a famously good man! He's family-oriented, doesn't beat his wife, and has a respectable job. Who wouldn't be envious?"

"Oh dear, you've gotten so used to this good life that you really think you're some kind of golden phoenix. Who knows who might be having affairs outside?"

"Sister Meng, you've lived most of your life, you can't be senile. Your children are all grown up, and they're just around the corner to enjoy their retirement. Are you really willing to give them all away like this?"

Seeing so many people speaking up for him, Su Dahai straightened his back. Although it was humiliating, it didn't stop him from feeling elated.

Meng Shuyun pointed to the person who said Su Dahai was a good husband.

“You step forward. He’s so good, I’ll divorce him right away, and you can take him home and cherish him. According to you, a man that good is impossible to find even with a lantern. Don’t go back later, come with us to process the divorce, and you two can get your marriage certificate right away.”

Turning to the one who had just sworn to have illicit relationships, she said, "You speak so confidently, it seems you know very well whether you and he are having an affair. You're taking his side and deliberately framing me!"

"It takes only a mouth to spread rumors, but it takes a lot of legwork to refute them. If you think Su Dahai is such a good person, don't leave today. If you like him, just stay with him."

Meng Shuyun rushed forward and grabbed one of them with each hand, and the aunties and grandmas who were watching the commotion fell silent.

Su Xiangyang looked at his father's dark face, then at his mother who had gone mad, and felt that his family was in danger.

His mother is so angry she's lost her mind! She did so many unimaginable things today; she wasn't like this before.

Has she gone crazy with anger?

The two onlookers who were caught were neighbors from the same village, and they broke free, their faces flushed.

"Sister Meng, you're too kind. My son is waiting for me to cook, so I'll head back now."

The onlookers all shut their mouths, afraid that Meng Shuyun would pull them down next.

Su Dahai grabbed Meng Shuyun by the collar and raised his hand, intending to teach her a lesson.

"If you don't beat a woman for a day, she'll be climbing on the roof and tearing off the tiles. Dahai, if your wife doesn't listen to you, you should give her a good beating, and she'll behave."

"Exactly, you're always too good to her. If you don't give her a beating, you won't know who's in charge of the family."

"They've been sitting on your neck and pooping!"

The men watching the commotion laughed and teased, and Su Dahai clearly took their words to heart.

I'm not going to care about my image today; I've already lost all face!

A restless woman deserves a good lesson.

Meng Shuyun knew exactly what he was thinking, and her eyes were even fiercer than Su Dahai's, charging forward like a wild bull.

She straddled him, thrusting left and right. Her clothes, faded from washing, tore open easily, revealing bluish-purple marks below her neck; one glance told you what had happened.

"At his age, he still indulges in such frivolous activities; what a shameless old man."

Meng Shuyun slapped Su Dahai's old face with all her might, "Why aren't you saying anything? Weren't you good at making excuses? Did a ghost pinch you and now have these marks on your body?"

Su Dahai's face turned a deep shade of liver; with so many people watching, he had completely lost face!

That old hag, a troublemaker, I've never had a peaceful day since I married her.

Now that life is better, she's become restless. If we don't teach her a lesson, she won't know who's in charge of this family!

Su Xiangyang stared blankly at the scene, not knowing what to do. His father and mother were fighting.

He quickly made a decision: to help his father.

Dad has a job, and that requires real money!

My mother does nothing but housework, and today she scolded me and even hit someone.

My face was still burning with pain.

Meng Shuyun glanced at Su Xiangyang, who was about to step forward, and picked up the carrying pole to hit him on the back.

Su Dahai, who had just gotten up, was bruised and swollen, but he lost his balance and was hit again.

Su Xiangyang ran around the yard trying to hide: "Mom, I'm your son. If you hurt me, I really won't come back."

"Father, say something! Ouch, it hurts, Mother! Am I still your biological son?!"

Su Dahai flew into a rage, grabbed a broom from the base of the wall, and charged over, yelling, "You old hag, you shrew! I'm divorcing you right now, and you won't get a single penny of my money!"

He wanted to see what kind of confidence she would have to ask for a divorce without his money.

Meng Shuyun had been waiting for him to say those words, so she took out her marriage certificate and household registration book from the room.

She looked at Su Xiangyang, who was curled up like a quail, and pointed at his nose, giving him a command.

“You unfilial son, pick up your things and get out. I won’t rely on you to support me in my old age. Theft is punishable by a tenfold fine. You stole fifteen yuan from me today. If you don’t return one hundred and fifty yuan to me within three days, I will report you to the police, and you can wait to go to the labor camp.”

"Take all your junk and go transfer your household registration and get a divorce right now. This house belongs to the Meng family. Hurry up and don't think you can stay here forever just because you're stalling."
