Chapter 525: Rumors are not to be trusted
What can I do?
Xiao Meng didn't know what to do for a moment.
Chen Fangfang saw that Sister Yu got the hang of things quickly and was busy in the kitchen, as if it was not her first time at the Song family.
She had nothing to do, so she took Yisi out for some fresh air and went to look for He Yihuan, letting Yisi and Yile babble in baby talk together.
Standing at the door, she saw the two He sisters, standing under a big tree and whispering furtively.
I couldn't help but frown and mutter to myself, if there is something I can't say when I get home, it must not be something good.
She didn't want to get involved in these trivial matters, but when she thought about the possible impact their whispers might have on the Song family, she quietly walked past them.
The two young ladies of the He family were talking nonsense, which left Chen Fangfang confused. For a moment, she was at a loss as to what to say.
She was older and more experienced, so she suddenly asked, "What are you talking about? What is gossip?"
Chen Fangfang spoke suddenly, which scared the two Miss Hes very much, especially Xiao Meng, who jumped up and her little face turned pale instantly.
He Yihuan was holding Yile in her arms and was also terrified. She took a few steps back, calmed herself down, and stammered to answer Chen Fangfang: "Xiao Meng...heard some...news in the factory. I think it was gossip."
Chen Fangfang found that what He Yihuan said was reliable and close to what she had heard, so she thought again and hoped that the eldest girl of the He family had told the whole story.
She only heard the last sentence and didn't hear a word of what they said before, as if the focus was on the previous words.
She had to ask for clarification.
Xiao Meng saw Chen Fangfang suddenly appear. I wonder how much she heard? She was so scared that her legs were shaking and her teeth were chattering.
He Yihuan held Yi Le in his arms, moving his legs back and forth, closing his eyes and ignoring Chen Fangfang's aggressive gaze.
Chen Fangfang looked at the He sisters, who were so panicked. They must have said something bad about the Song family. Since she saw it, she would catch them in the act. How could she let them go?
Thinking of this, she asked in a sharp voice: "Do you still have any conscience? The Song family has been very kind to you. If it weren't for your sister-in-law's help, you would still be in dire straits."
Chen Fangfang has been improving herself at work through continuous learning. Now she can speak fluently and even utter some words.
The He sisters are all more educated than Chen Fangfang, especially He Yihuan, who is a good student. When they heard what Chen Fangfang said, they felt it hit them sore.
Xiao Meng said to Chen Fangfang tremblingly: "Sister Fangfang, it's not what you think. We will not betray the Song family."
"I will never do anything to make my master sad."
He Yihuan saw Xiao Meng and was about to let the cat out of the bag. She hurriedly held Yi Le and walked forward, standing in front of Chen Fangfang to mend her sister. "Sister Fangfang, don't worry. No matter who betrays the Song family, we sisters will not do that."
"Just now, Xiao Meng told me the gossip she heard."
Seeing that the two young ladies from the He family refused to tell the truth, Chen Fangfang became anxious for a moment, but she couldn't think of any good solution.
In a hurry, she suddenly said loudly: "If you don't tell me, I will call you sister-in-law."
"No...no, Sister Fangfang, I said it's not okay, but there is one thing you have to keep secret, and you can't let the master know."
Xiao Meng took a few quick steps, covered Chen Fangfang's mouth with her hand, and spoke in a low voice.
"I see."
Chen Fangfang agreed to Xiao Meng without thinking. Suddenly she felt that the problem was serious. Was their whisper related to Bai Wei?
If she didn't know that she was related to Bai Wei, why did the news spread in the machinery factory?
Chen Fangfang thought for a moment, then continued, "Hurry up and say it. If you speak too slowly, I'll call you sister-in-law."
"I'll tell you. I'll tell you everything."
…
Xiao Meng was afraid that the matter would get out of hand and alarm her master, so she hurriedly whispered to Chen Fangfang that there was a rumor going around in the factory that Song Qinian was injured, and the injury was serious.
When Chen Fangfang heard the news, she was shocked. Her eyes were wide open in shock and her mouth was opened wide. It took her a long time to realize that her brain was deprived of oxygen and her heart was about to stop beating.
"You really need to keep this gossip a secret and don't tell my sister-in-law."
Chen Fangfang said to Xiao Meng and He Yihuan in a trembling voice.
"We know."
The two young ladies of the He family said in unison.
"Let's go home quickly, otherwise it will cause misunderstanding."
Chen Fangfang was older and knew that if the three of them stood under the tree and whispered, it would attract Bai Wei's attention.
If she dug deeper, the truth would be exposed. She was worried that this gossip would ruin Bai Wei's mood and cast a shadow on this family.
Rumors are just rumors, gossip, and they are not acceptable to the public. Chen Fangfang believes that these rumors were fabricated by some people just to confuse the public.
Bai Wei stood in the restaurant, looking at the table of dishes made by Sister Yu and nodded. She was very satisfied.
She saw Song Qifu sitting on a chair in the living room, flipping through his test papers, but she didn't see Chen Fangfang or He Yihuan!
She looked down at the watch on her wrist. Why hasn't Xiao Meng come back at this time?
Bai Wei walked out of the room and came to the yard. She looked up and saw Chen Fangfang, Xiao Meng and He Yihuan chatting happily under a big tree not far from the gate.
Their expressions were very solemn, as if something bad had happened. They were curious and wanted to understand why they were talking in a mysterious way and whispering behind their backs.
They say curiosity kills the cat, which is absolutely true. Bai Wei heard the words in her dream because of her curiosity.
She couldn't help but take a few steps back, almost falling down, and then she balanced herself suddenly and asked, "I didn't hear clearly, explain it clearly."
"oh?"
Chen Fangfang, Xiao Meng, and He Yihuan all turned around and were frightened to see Bai Wei right behind them.
They cried out in surprise, and then became completely wilted like eggplants hit by frost.
"Master, we don't want to hide this from you. This is just gossip. Don't believe it."
"You once said that rumors stop at the wise. Only by not believing in rumors and not spreading them can one be a law-abiding citizen."
Xiao Meng saw that Bai Wei's face looked very ugly, as if covered with a layer of frost, and an indescribable pressure was pressing towards her. She now regretted telling her sister these gossips.
Not only Chen Fangfang heard it, but even the master heard it.
"Stop talking nonsense and tell me the gossip you heard."
Bai was angry. She looked at the three people around her. They were her closest relatives, but they were standing here with their backs to her and muttering to herself.
She was usually very kind to them, but she became the one who was abandoned by her friends and relatives.
No one would be able to bear such a thing.
"I'll tell you everything. I hope you won't get angry or believe me."
…
Xiao Meng told Bai Wei everything she heard the female worker Sister Liu say at the machinery factory.
After hearing this, Bai Wei shuddered and muttered, "It's just gossip, don't trust it."
