Wu Wanying had heard Yu Yao mention this before, and immediately said with a proud look, "She's my daughter."
"Oh my, it really is Teacher Wu's daughter. Teacher Wu, your daughter is remarkable. The newspapers all say that she saw through the enemy's scheme and cleverly and bravely played along with them, keeping them calm while secretly reporting to her superiors. That's how she managed to catch the spy without any real danger. If it were me, I'd probably be scared to death if I discovered an enemy spy."
A family member nearby said, "That's only because of you. Comrade Yu Yao was able to become an advanced military spouse because her mental fortitude and intelligence are extraordinary. Teacher Wu, your daughter is a great hero of our island!"

What's there to be so smug about? She's not even her daughter who grew up by her side, and she's not close to her at all!"
"To be honest, if her daughter really wanted to acknowledge her, why hasn't she come to the family compound for so long? Maybe she's just putting in a lot of effort but the other person doesn't recognize her at all!"
Wu Wanying turned back to ask Xiao Zhang which direction he went, and then she heard what Wan Guiying said.
Wu Wanying rarely got angry, but her face had darkened by this. Just as she rushed forward to argue with Wan Guiying, she heard a family member exclaim in surprise:
