In the days that followed, Wan Guihua didn't cause any more trouble, which secretly relieved Qin Xiaoxiao.
After all, they are Su Lu's parents. No matter what, they gave birth to him. If they really make a scene like enemies, it won't do Su Lu any good. They'll sue him and win the case. She and Su Lu won't have a good ending.
Qin Xiaoxiao didn't tell the Qin family about this, but secrets always keep out, and Qin Feng received the news that very night.
Old Mrs. Qin was so angry that her hands were shaking.
"What is Wan Guihua trying to do? Why does she have to cause trouble when she has a perfectly good life? Is she living too leisurely? Or does she think Su Lu and Xiao Xiao are living too well?"
Su Lu is her own son, how can she be so biased?
"If I had a son as capable and successful as him, I'd be laughing in my sleep. How can she not be content?"
The spineless Qin Feng: ...
Am I being rejected?
He was initially furious and wanted to confront the Su family, but now he has no such intentions and will just lick his wounds on the sidelines.
This infuriated Old Mrs. Qin, and she went to find Old Mrs. Su the next day.
When the two old friends sat down to chat, the Su family elders learned about the foolish thing Wan Guihua had done.
Grandma Su blushed, grabbed Grandma Qin's hand, and cried, "Sister, I'm so sorry! Waaah..."
Grandma Su was crying so hard that Grandma Qin couldn't bear to say anything more and stormed off. As for comforting her? Ha! You're dreaming!
You treat my granddaughter like this and I'm still trying to comfort you? Dream on! Even if you're my old friend, it's not okay.
Grandma Su didn't care how she dealt with Wan Guihua; instead, she sat down under the big tree, ready to start gossiping.
Under a big tree at the village entrance, a group of idle women in their sixties and seventies listened as if they were listening to an old lady Qin recount Wan Guihua's evil deeds. After they finished listening, they sighed with regret.
Is this a case of someone who can't stand the good life anymore and wants to experience a more stressful one? Are there really people in this world who would seek out such torment?
I've never seen Wan Guihua like this before! What's wrong with her now? Why is she acting like she's possessed, clinging to Qin Xiaoxiao so stubbornly?
What did Qin Xiaoxiao do wrong? She stayed home and took good care of the child without doing anything, and you can still find fault with her? You're being so unreasonable!
This is truly a case of misfortune befalling someone sitting at home; it's incredibly unlucky.
As Wan Guihua's best friend, Ma Dahua unilaterally severed her sisterly bond with Wan Guihua, stating that from now on, she and Wan Guihua were strangers and would pretend not to know each other if they met again.
These words came from Aunt Liu and Aunt Song. When they mentioned this, their eyes were full of contempt, and they made no attempt to hide their disdain for Wan Guihua.
When Wan Guihua learned of this news, she was stunned and sat blankly in her chair for a long time, unable to recover.
Is the sisterhood of so many years really over?
Even after her falling out with Qin Xiaoxiao, Ma Dahua never explicitly said she wanted to sever their sisterly bond. But now... has she angered Ma Dahua?
Although Ma Dahua hadn't paid much attention to her before, at least they would greet each other and exchange a few words when they met. But now...
Will I ignore her whenever we meet in the future?
Wan Guihua was somewhat saddened and began to seriously recall what Su Lu had said.
After thinking for more than an hour, Wan Guihua suddenly realized that she had no friends left, not even anyone to talk to.
The villagers have long since stopped paying attention to her. When they meet, they might exchange a smile and a greeting, but no one sits down to chat like they used to. They no longer visit her.
Wan Guihua was startled and hurriedly stood up and walked outside.
Su Zhiyuan, who was sitting in the yard smoking, frowned when he saw her running out in a panic.
Where are we going? Aren't we going to eat?
Wan Guihua paused, then stopped.
Yes, who is she going to see?
Go find Ma Dahua?
Will she even acknowledge me?
After arguing with her son like that yesterday and criticizing Tong Qin Xiaoxiao, how could she possibly care about her?
If it were her...
She'll probably never talk to her again.
Wan Guihua returned to Su Zhiyuan's side with a dejected expression, "Old man, tell me, were we really wrong?"
Su Zhiyuan didn't say anything, and smoked even more heavily.
After a long pause, Su Zhiyuan stubbed out his cigarette and said, "Let's eat."
Su Zhiyuan got up and went back to his room, lying on the kang (a heated brick bed) thinking about what Su Lu had said yesterday.
Did he do something wrong? But didn't he go through the same thing?
One person supports the whole family, and it's been like this for so many years!
Why can't Su Lu do it?
But is he willing to accept this?
He didn't want to support the other families either, but if he didn't support them, wouldn't they starve to death?
Sigh! It's all because of poverty. If he had money, things wouldn't be like this.
After thinking for a long time, Su Zhiyuan finally made up his mind that he would keep the money Su Lu gave him in his own hands and never use it to subsidize his sons again. As long as he had money, his sons would have to treat him well and support him in his old age. Otherwise, he would not give them a single penny and would return all the money to Su Lu before he died.
Su Zhiyuan felt that he would probably have to rely on his youngest son, Su Lu, in the future. His eldest, second, and third sons were unreliable. When he became unable to move, his sons would throw him out.
If that's the case, then this house...
He needs to think about this carefully.
It must be said that Su Zhiyuan's intelligence is still intact; without his sons causing trouble around him, his mind is very clear.
Qin Xiaoxiao stayed home to take care of her child with peace of mind. Although she was busy and sometimes irritable, things went smoothly overall.
only……
"Qin Chenxi!"
Mu Jin's hand trembled while cooking, and a spoonful of salt was poured into the pot.
"well!"
I made it too salty again; I'll need to prepare more water today.
Mu Jin was at her wit's end.
Ever since the twins turned 100 days old, she has heard Qin Xiaoxiao's angry roars every day. She doesn't know what the two babies have done to her. They are like they have explosives in their mouths. They won't stop until they shout seventeen or eighteen times a day!
How could such a young child upset her?
Mu Jin was puzzled, but she wasn't that curious and didn't want to ask. She obediently put the pot on the table, took out two bowls, filled them with rice, and waited.
A moment later, a tall figure passed by the window, and a smile appeared on Mu Jin's indifferent face.
In the opposite room, Qin Xiaoxiao was glaring angrily at Qin Chenxi, but little Qin Chenxi didn't even glance at her mother. She was happily grabbing Qin Chenrui's hair and putting it in her mouth, while her other hand was already grabbing at little Qin Chenrui's lower body.
Qin Xiaoxiao hurriedly pried Qin Chenxi's hands off, and then pushed Qin Chenrui onto the kang (a heated brick bed).
After the two were separated, Qin Xiaoxiao hadn't even had a chance to breathe a sigh of relief when Qin Chenrui, who was slow to react, started to feel the pain and began to wail with a pout.
Qin Chenxi laughed heartily at the sight. It was fortunate she couldn't sit still and had to lean on the kang (heated brick bed) for support; otherwise, she would have clapped and cheered. (End of Chapter)
