"No, it's okay." Wu Sufen didn't dare to speak, for fear of making Lao He unhappy.

But when Lao He saw her like this, he knew something must be wrong.

"Hurry up and tell me, don't hide it."

Wu Sufen still didn't want to say.

"Hurry up! Have you caused trouble for me again? Is that right?" Lao He asked, slamming the table.

This shot startled her, and she looked at Lao He tremblingly, "I, I...it's not me, it's Zhao Xiuhong, it's her..."

"Explain it clearly!" Lao He was extremely anxious.

Wu Sufen had no choice but to speak out, "I didn't say anything. It was all Zhao Xiuhong who said it. It was all her fault. But I don't know if Qian Meizi would... Oh, it's all Zhao Xiuhong's fault!"

Old He was suddenly overwhelmed.

"You all have no brains, don't you?"

"How many times have I told you to stay away from her? Why didn't you listen?" Lao He was so angry. "Zhao Xiuhong only knows how to gossip. What kind of people are Captain Cheng and his wife? They always thought of us when they had something delicious to eat. Captain Cheng also took good care of me at work. Do you want to destroy our family?"

The more he spoke, the angrier and more serious he became. Wu Sufen was frightened and waved her hands repeatedly, "No, I really didn't, I just..."

"What do you mean by you? You don't want to make friends with good people, but you want to make friends with those gossipy women! How much trouble have you caused since you started dating Zhao Xiuhong? You are so outspoken!"

Wu Sufen was made to cry. She was very angry but didn't know how to refute.

When she came to this place, there was no one to talk to. She could talk to Zhao Xiuhong, and she thought she could talk to Su Qianqian too. However, Su Qianqian became more and more strange, and there was no way to talk to her. She felt that she and Su Qianqian were not from the same world. She always felt that Su Qianqian seemed to be standing on a high place looking down at her, which made her uncomfortable.

"Stop crying!" Lao He said irritably, "Promise me first that you will not have any contact with Zhao Xiuhong anymore!"

She was stunned.

"W-what?"

"Don't you know you're wrong?"

"If I'm not allowed to associate with her, then who should I associate with? Everyone looks down on me! Everyone looks down on me! I stay here all day with nothing to do." Wu Sufen burst into tears while crying.

Lao He was so angry that he had a headache. What's wrong with this woman? She just can't understand good or bad words, right?

"If you insist on making trouble with Zhao Xiuhong, then go back to your hometown!"

Wu Sufen opened her eyes wide and even forgot to cry.

"You, you actually asked me to go back to the countryside? You..." She pointed at Lao He, angry and scared, her hands shaking, "Do you have someone else out there?"

Old He raised his hand and was about to hit someone, and Wu Sufen was so scared that she held her head in her hands.

Then there was a loud "bang"!

Wu Sufen screamed subconsciously, but found that it was not her who was hit. Then she opened her eyes and saw Lao He hitting the table. She saw that Lao He's hand seemed to be bleeding, "Lao He, you..."

Then Lao He got up and walked away.

This made Wu Sufen confused and she didn't know what to do.

Then the son who had been hiding in the room came out and came to Wu Sufen, "Mom, what are you doing? Are you arguing with dad over Zhao Xiuhong? Are you having a falling out with your neighbors over Zhao Xiuhong? Can Zhao Xiuhong give you money to spend?"

Wu Sufen was dumbfounded by her son's words and stared at him blankly.

"When you were playing with Zhao Xiuhong, did Zhao Xiuhong ever give you anything to eat?"

She was left speechless by the questions one after another.

"Mom, you have to know the difference between good and bad! Don't think she is a good person just because others say a few words. Aunt Su used to give us all the delicious food and was very kind to me. She never said anything bad about you. How can you join others in saying bad things about her?"

"Just because Aunt Su is getting better and better, you are jealous? You think you have to be like you and Zhao Xiuhong, not change, and be an honest rural woman, right?"

Seeing her son say these words, she really didn't expect that her son, although still young, could speak so sharply, and even be better at speaking than Lao He.

If Lao He had said the same thing, she might not have quarreled, but Lao He would blame her without explaining the situation to her clearly.

"Son, I was wrong. I know I was wrong, and I won't do it again. I'm going to go and apologize to your Aunt Su." Wu Sufen wiped the tears from her face and said to her son.

"I'll go with you, I'm afraid you're dumb and can't speak."

Wu Sufen went to wash her face and then went to apologize to Lao He. Lao He then came out. The wound on his hand made Wu Sufen feel heartbroken. After treating it, the family of three went to knock on Cheng Yue's door.

Cheng Yue opened the door and saw the family of three. He looked cold and let them in.

"Qianqian, Lao He's family is here."

Su Qianqian came over and felt a little embarrassed when she saw the family of three. She didn't know what to say.

Wu Sufen's son He Qiang said, "Aunt Su, I brought my mother here to apologize."

"Qiangzi, did you ask your mother to come, or did she want to come on her own?" Su Qianqian had a good impression of He Qiang. Every time she saw her, she would call for help, and she would also take the three little ones to play, like an older brother.

Fortunately, He Qiang was not corrupted by Wu Sufen.

"Sister Qian, I came here on my own initiative. This time I really know I was wrong, really!" Wu Sufen spoke up immediately. She couldn't ruin her son's career. To her, her son was her life and was too important. She could quarrel with Lao He, but she couldn't disobey her son. She would have to rely on her son in the future.

Su Qianqian raised an eyebrow, "Do you really know you are wrong?"

"Really, this apology is from the bottom of my heart. I will never have anything to do with Zhao Xiuhong again." Wu Sufen felt that if she continued to have any contact with Zhao Xiuhong, the consequences would be disastrous, so she decided to give up.

Cheng Yue looked at Lao He when he heard this, "Lao He, is this what you asked for?"

Just as Lao He was about to say that he was the one who asked, Wu Sufen spoke first, "No, he asked me, but I didn't listen. I only realized it later. Zhao Xiuhong didn't do it for my own good. She just wanted to alienate the relationship between Qian and me. She saw that Qian and I had a good relationship, and she was jealous! Because she didn't have the chance to get to know Qian!"

She just figured it out.

Zhao Xiuhong had suggested before that she introduce Qian Meizi to them, but Qian Meizi was very busy, and had good food, clothing and other necessities, so Zhao Xiuhong must have been jealous.

When she was with Zhao Xiuhong, she found that Zhao Xiuhong was either talking about this or that, always saying bad things about others, as if she had never said anything bad about herself.

So would Zhao Xiuhong also say bad things about her behind her back?

Su Qianqian sighed, "I'm glad you think so. I know there are some things you won't say. We are neighbors, and we'll see each other every day. Don't make the relationship too awkward."

She didn't want to have a falling out with Wu Sufen. After all, there was no substantial harm. They just said a few words. But she would not be nice to Wu Sufen anymore. Once a crack appeared in some relationships, it would be impossible to restore them to the way they were before.

Just maintain a superficial peace.

But she will still be nice to He Qiang. This child is sensible and has positive values, and he has not been influenced by Wu Sufen.

"Captain, my wife is uneducated and not very smart. Anyway, I am more responsible. Such things will never happen again."

Cheng Yue looked at Wu Sufen and then at Lao He and said in a deep voice, "Lao He, I know exactly what kind of person you are. Don't worry, I won't hold it against you."

Old He heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. He was really afraid of offending Cheng Yue. Cheng Yue was obviously also from the countryside, but he had good abilities and was highly valued by his superiors.

“But...behind every successful man there is a powerful woman. She may not be educated, but she must be able to distinguish right from wrong. You have worked hard to get to where you are today, so don’t let all your efforts go to waste.” Cheng Yue patted Lao He on the shoulder and said.

Old He was startled and understood what Cheng Yue meant.
