At dusk, those who have left home return to their nests like weary birds, heading towards the place they long for.
Places that were quiet during the day are gradually becoming lively.
Zhang Shengtian and the children returned first, and then one by one, everyone else came back.
"Lili, when did you get back?" Yang Mei glanced at the situation outside and asked Song Lili from the kitchen.
"I came back at noon." There was nothing to do at the shop, so she didn't need to go home because she was bored.
"Then...nothing happened?Nothing caused you any trouble?" Yang Mei stared at Song Lili with some surprise.
Song Lili smiled and said, "No, what could I possibly be looking for?"
What happened today concerns Zhang Aiai's family, and no matter how good her relationship with Yang Mei is, she can't tell anyone.
After all, family scandals should not be aired in public.
"That's good. I was worried that those two would bring you bad luck when everyone was gone." Yang Mei breathed a sigh of relief, though it was unclear whether she believed Song Lili's words.
"Do you think I'm someone who can be bullied so easily?" Song Lili asked Yang Mei with amusement.
Does she look that easy to bully?
Even if she seems easy to bully, she's not really. She'll find a way to get revenge on anyone who bullies her.
Yang Mei had no answer to this, and could only nod, "It really doesn't seem like it."
Back then, she schemed against Luo Weijia and the village accountant, which showed that she wasn't someone to be trifled with.
Didn't Luo Juan later prove this point as well?
So Yang Mei was relieved. "Then I'm relieved. Otherwise, I was afraid you would have wronged yourself so that Qinghua wouldn't worry."
"I won't let myself be wronged." I might tolerate some things, but if I can't bear it, I'll have to stand up for myself.
Song Lili didn't mention what happened during the day, nor did Zhang Aiai. On the contrary, Fang Yaoqing appeared at dinner looking weak and exhausted.
"Yaoqing, what's wrong? Are you sick?" Zhang Shengtian asked with concern. No matter what, this was his son-in-law, the one who would be living with his daughter in the future.
What if he takes his bad attitude out on his daughter?
"It's nothing, it's nothing." Fang Yaoqing looked like he was trying to cover something up, making it obvious to everyone that something was amiss.
Zhang Shengtian and Zhang Qinghua aren't stupid, how could they not see it?
Zhang Shengtian looked at Fang Yaoqing seriously and said, "What's wrong? Tell me honestly."
Zhang Qinghua looked at Song Lili and asked with his eyes what was going on.
Song Lili sneered, "I'm not going to complain, but you still have the audacity to come out and dig your own grave. If you want to die, I won't stop you."
With just one glance, Zhang Qinghua knew that Fang Yaoqing had probably done something wrong.
She knew Lili's character; she was kind to others and wouldn't easily get into personal conflicts unless someone deliberately provoked her.
The fact that Lili showed such an expression meant that Fang Yaoqing had done something she could not tolerate, and Zhang Qinghua's expression also turned sour.
Fang Yaoqing secretly observed Zhang Shengtian and Zhang Qinghua's expressions, and seeing their gloomy faces, he immediately felt happy.
In the afternoon, he figured it out: Song Lili would only act up when the man wasn't home. Once the breadwinner was back, wouldn't she have to behave herself?
Besides, he is Zhang Aiai's husband. For Zhang Aiai's sake, they will side with him. Zhang Aiai is their family.
As for Song Lili? She's just a woman who was married off; she's nothing to be afraid of.
Therefore, he made up his mind to expose Song Lili at night, and then make Song Lili apologize and arrange a job for him.
It has to be said that Fang Yaoqing's plan was incredibly shrewd and meticulous.
However, he overlooked Song Lili, Zhang Qinghua, and others, and ignored their personalities.
Perhaps Zhang Qinghua and Zhang Qinghua will compromise for Zhang Aiai, but how they compromise is not up to Fang Yaoqing.
And Song Lili isn't someone who can be threatened so easily.
So Song Lili looked at Fang Yaoqing as if he were an idiot, thinking he was really mentally challenged.
Zhang Aiai froze, completely bewildered. What had gotten into Fang Yaoqing? Why did he actually come out and admit it?
Zhang Aiai glanced nervously at Zhang Shengtian and Zhang Qinghua. Knowing her elder brother and his father well, she knew they would definitely teach Fang Yaoqing a lesson if they found out she had been beaten.
Zhang Aiai pursed her lips, unsure of what to do. Should she stop it? Deep down, she didn't seem to want to.
The beatings and verbal abuse Fang Yaoqing had inflicted on her over the years had fueled her resentment. She also wanted to see if Fang Yaoqing would still be so arrogant after being beaten enough.
But if we don't stop it, Da Da and Da Ge will find out.
Just as Zhang Aiai was about to stand up, Song Lili pulled her back down to sit, saying, "Just keep an eye on things."
It's better for Lin Xue to let everyone know about this; otherwise, the more she tries to hide it, the less she'll know what to say, and she'll have to keep it a secret.
This is an opportunity. Since Fang Yaoqing has stepped forward himself, Zhang Aiai doesn't need to worry about how to speak; she can just watch from the sidelines.
“But…” Zhang Aiai hesitated, not wanting her elder brother and grandpa to worry.
"They'll always find out." Can something like this be kept secret? Even if Zhang Aiai managed to keep it a secret, she never intended to.
So, since we'll know the final outcome anyway, why try to stop it?
As if struck by a sudden inspiration, Zhang Aiai understood Song Lili's unspoken words, and a look of shock crossed her face.
"sister in law"
Song Lili looked at her coolly, "What? You think I'd side with you? You don't think we're close just because we exchanged a few words this afternoon, do you?"
“My closest brother will always be my brother, no one can replace him.” Song Lili said with a touch of pride, her smug little face making Zhang Aiai both laugh and cry.
She knew she couldn't stop it now; with her sister-in-law around, there was no way to hide it. So she decided to let things take their course.
Zhang Aiai stopped trying to stop him, and Song Lili looked at Fang Yaoqing with a smile, waiting for him to court disaster.
Although the others didn't understand the situation, they were good at reading people's expressions. Just by looking at Song Lili's face, they understood pretty much what was going on.
"Xiao Chen, come on, I'll go with you to do your homework." Da Qing pulled Xiao Chen to her feet; this place wasn't suitable for a child.
Judging from Lili's expression, you can tell she's probably angry. When Lili gets angry, the consequences can be quite severe, right?
Please refer to Luo Weijia and Accountant Xu.
Wang Daming picked up Xiao Hui and said, "I've saved some delicious food. Do you want some?"
Xiao Hui immediately nodded, "Yes, yes, Uncle, where is it, where is it? I want to eat it."
Xiao Hui has no resistance to delicious food, so she naturally complied.
Yang Mei picked up the youngest, Xinyi, and said, "I'll go with you." She didn't know who they were, but they all left anyway.
Before dinner, only the Zhang and Fang families remained at the table.
"Ai'ai, take Xiaotao to the kitchen." Seeing Fang Xiaotao's frightened look, Song Lili couldn't bear to see it.
