In order to restore their sister's reputation and prevent the gossiping old women in the village from gossiping about her and making it difficult for her to live in the village, the Huang Yueqiang brothers have put in a lot of effort.
Not only did he tell his classmates so that they could tell their parents when they got home, but he also told the villagers while he was collecting firewood and digging wild vegetables.
Of course you can't be too deliberate, otherwise it will seem unreal, and you have to solve the problem unintentionally.
They both knew that as long as they stayed with the villagers, even if they didn't take the initiative to bring up their sister's matter, others would take the initiative to bring it up.
It was not for any other reason, but just because of my gossipy heart, I wanted to get some information out of the Huang Yueqiang brothers and know more about the truth.
Unfortunately, they didn’t know that the Huang Yueqiang brothers had been waiting for the villagers to ask.
They also planned to take this opportunity to explain the matter clearly to prevent the villagers from continuing to misunderstand their sister.
The two brothers were collecting firewood with the villagers, and within a few minutes, some gossipy people came over.
"Yue Qiang, you two are so sensible. You even help your sister collect firewood." Aunt Feng from the village asked. She would definitely not ask directly at the beginning, so she had to start with other questions.
Huang Yueqiang and the other man grinned, "Yes, my sister is pregnant now, so it's not convenient for her to go up the mountain to collect firewood, so we two have to help collect more."
"What a good kid! You know how to care for your sister. Let me ask you, how many months is your sister pregnant now?"
"My sister is three months pregnant." Huang Yueqiang answered while collecting firewood, as if it was a casual answer without any special explanation. In fact, they had already brought up the topic and were just waiting for Aunt Feng to ask the next question.
Aunt Feng was shocked when she heard this. "Oh my god, three months! Then let me ask you, your brother-in-law has been away from home for more than half a year, how come your sister is already three months pregnant?"
As expected, Huang Yueqiang immediately explained, "What do you mean he hasn't been back for half a year? That's just rumors from some people. My brother-in-law just came back three months ago, but he was passing by on a mission, came back late at night, and left early in the morning, so no one saw him."
"Is this true?" Aunt Feng had the same idea as their second aunt. Huang Yuelan got pregnant after just one night back? This efficiency is extremely high!
Huang Yuehu replied, "Of course it's true. How could we lie? My brother-in-law brought back chocolate candies from the army with us. I still have the candy wrappers."
After saying that, Huang Yuehu took out the chocolate candy wrappers from his trouser pocket, but they were all folded into various shapes of small animals.
"Here, look! This kind of chocolate candy is not sold in our commune or the county town. My brother-in-law bought it specially for us in the big city! We still have a few at home!" Huang Yuehu handed the chocolate candy wrapper to Aunt Feng.
This was the first time Aunt Feng heard the word chocolate and she found it very strange.
"I can't read, so it's no use for you to show it to me. But I have never seen this kind of candy wrapper. It looks much better than the candy wrappers in our supply and marketing cooperative. I guess your brother-in-law bought it in a big city." Although Aunt Feng had never seen chocolate, she could tell from the packaging that this thing was indeed bought by Wang Jianguo from another place because it was not sold locally!
Huang Yueqiang went on to explain, "My sister is the best person. She would never have an affair with someone else. Auntie, don't listen to those people's nonsense."
"I knew it. Your brother-in-law is an officer. How could she be so stupid as to give up the officer and go with some rough guys? These are just some nagging old women talking nonsense. It's better not to listen. Your sister is really a good person. That's why she gave birth to triplets and twins now. This is the result of doing good deeds." Aunt Feng said some nice words fluently.
Huang Yueqiang and the other man smiled, knowing that Aunt Feng had been persuaded by them and believed what their sister said.
After several efforts, the news that my brother-in-law had returned had spread throughout the village.
The suspicion of the sister's "cheating" has been almost completely cleared, but some people still have doubts.
After all, Huang Yuelan was pregnant after just one night back?
The chances of this happening are very small, but not impossible, so it's barely acceptable.
No matter what, Huang Yuelan is no longer the unfaithful and lonely woman in the eyes of the villagers, nor is she a bad woman who cheats on her husband.
Sun Gousheng learned the truth of the matter. He knew that his guess was correct and Huang Yuelan really did not cheat.
"You're right. Huang Yuelan was indeed misunderstood by the villagers. I heard that the hunter came back once before, but he just passed by and no one saw him, so no one knew about it." Sun's mother gossiped to her son.
Sun Gousheng: "I know she is not that kind of person. Even if you beat her to death, she will never cheat on you because she doesn't have the guts to do so. She is very honest."
"Yes, I remember when she was in our house, she was very soft-tempered. She didn't even dare to make a sound. She would do whatever you asked her to do. She usually spoke in a low voice, as if she was afraid of waking someone up. Such a timid person would not cheat. I didn't think it through at the beginning." When Sun's mother heard her son's reminder and recalled Huang Yuelan's behavior when she was her daughter-in-law, she felt that she was too hasty at the beginning.
Sun Gousheng has now become a sober person. After all, his past unconsciousness cost him a heavy price.
"Most of the rumors in the village are groundless. They make a big deal out of nothing. They accuse people of crimes without verifying the facts, ruining their reputation. These people don't even have a guilty conscience." Sun Gousheng complained. He really hated those gossiping women, especially the one who slandered Huang Yuelan in front of his ear.
Grandmother: "You think too much. This has been a tradition for many years. Since your grandmother, your grandmother's grandmother, and our village was founded, there has been no shortage of gossip. What do people usually talk about when they have nothing to do? It's just gossiping about other people's affairs to relieve boredom in life. If you take it seriously, you lose. Don't take it seriously."
Sun Gousheng didn't want to argue with his mother. After all, it was meaningless. However, he felt that such gossip was not a good tradition. He didn't feel anything when it happened to others, but when it happened to him, he would feel the pain.
After her two younger brothers went out to help prove her innocence, Huang Yuelan found that when she went out again, the villagers no longer looked at her the same way as before. Instead, they squinted their eyes and tilted their mouths, as if they saw garbage.
Now everyone's eyes have returned to normal, and Huang Yuelan knows that all this is thanks to her two younger brothers.
