She looked at Zhuang Cuiping.
"Aunt Zhuang, if I remember correctly, didn't you just try to persuade my mother to give in and admit her wrongdoing?"
"So you also know that Zhang Guifang is blackmailing my mom?"
"Tsk, Aunt Zhuang has a really good heart. She's so kind. She sympathizes with Zhang Guifang even though she knows she's trying to extort money. How progressive!"
Su Lixuan said sarcastically, "If you're so kind, why don't you admit Zhang Guifang's false accusation on my mother's behalf?"
"Why do you have no spirit of sacrifice at all? Are you not willing to make sacrifices for vulnerable veteran comrades?"
Zhuang Cuiping knows how to use moral blackmail, huh, who doesn’t?
Su Lixuan would always compliment everyone present as soon as she opened her mouth!
It all depends on who is better at moral kidnapping.
Su Lixuan said, "Aunt Zhuang, your family has an easier time getting money than ours. Why don't you rush forward and admit the extortion, understand Zhang Guifang, and help her?"
She looked at the people around her and said, "And all the uncles, aunts, uncles, and aunts, most of you are not as well-off as Aunt Zhuang's family."
"But since we are so kindhearted and persuaded my mother to give money to Zhang Guifang, why did you remain silent when we asked you to spend money for charity?"
She extended her delicate index finger and tapped her chin, pretending to understand something. "Ah, I see. Is it because I don't feel the pain unless the needle pricks me?"
"Now that you've been pricked, it hurts so much that you can't speak?"
"How can you talk like that, girl?!" Zhuang Cuiping's face turned red with embarrassment.
He stubbornly argued, "I just advised your mother-in-law to admit her guilt. Wasn't it because the board that Lu Bo and his wife had the accident on was borrowed from your house?"
"Why are you bringing up our old neighbors? What does it have to do with us?"
"It was your board that caused the accident. At least you should be considered to have some responsibility, right?"
Old Mrs. Wang, who had just been called by Su Lixuan, quickly followed suit.
"Yeah, why are you bothering us, little girl? The board belongs to your family and has something to do with your family. What does it have to do with us? We are just trying to help speak a fair word."
Ignoring the chattering people around her who had come back to life, Su Lixuan shook her head and interrupted, "No, how can it have nothing to do with you?"
She looked at Zhuang Cuiping with a half-smile: "That board is not mine. My husband 'borrowed' it from Aunt Zhuang's family."
She pointed to the place where Zhuang Cuiping's household items were piled up and said, "Look, I borrowed it from there."
There were so many pieces of junk that Zhuang Cuiping probably couldn't even remember whether there were any wooden boards in the pile.
Of course, whether it exists or not, if Su Lixuan says it exists, then it exists.
Anyway, rumors can be spread with just one mouth.
Su Lixuan: "That's the board from Aunt Zhuang's house. According to what Aunt Zhuang said just now, the source of the accident that happened to Lu Bo and his wife can be traced back to Aunt Zhuang."
She said excitedly, "This is fate. It's only right and proper for Aunt Zhuang to admit Zhang Guifang's false accusation."
Li Yanhong looked at Zhuang Cuiping who was obviously panicking and cursed in her heart, "It's your fault."
Of course she knew that her second daughter-in-law was telling a lie, and that it might drag this group of people who were just watching the fun into the water... This lie was even more appealing than the truth.
Zhuang Cuiping pointed at Su Lixuan: "You, you are talking nonsense!"
"Then why is it my board? And when did I borrow Lin Zhan's board?"
Su Lixuan insisted, "That's your board. My son, Zhan, took it out from your junk pile! You can still find a board of similar size if you look for it now."
Su Lixuan kept saying, "The board was borrowed from your family, so it has something to do with your family. You have to compensate Zhang Guifang, otherwise you'd be considered rich and unkind!"
Zhuang Cuiping was so annoyed that her vision went dark. She was upset and her voice became louder unconsciously: "I have never borrowed Lin Zhan's board! How come you don't understand what I am saying?"
Seeing that Su Lixuan was determined to put the blame on her, Zhuang Cuiping changed her tone in a hurry -
"If that board really belongs to me, then Lin Zhan stole it. He took it from my junk pile without even saying hello. If that's not stealing, what is it?"
"Bozi and his wife are in trouble now. What does it have to do with me? The board was stolen by Lin Zhan!"
I've been waiting for her to say this!
A smile flashed across Su Lixuan's eyes, and she let out an exaggerated "Huh?"
Covering his mouth in disbelief, he said, "Stolen? How could it be stolen? Isn't taking the board from your house the same as borrowing it?"
"This statement was previously approved by you, Aunt Zhuang!"
"Like when Lu Bo took the board from my house to play with, even if we didn't know, you could still echo Zhang Guifang's words and say that Lu Bo 'borrowed' the board from my house."
"How come it's your turn? It's your family's thing, so why can't you just 'borrow' it like this?"
She shook her head and said, "No, no, Aunt Zhuang, you don't really think borrowing a board like this is stealing, do you?"
"If you think so... then Lubo was stealing when he took the board from my house."
"He stole something from my house, and if something goes wrong after he used it, my family will have to bear the responsibility... Ha..."
The sneering laugh made Zhuang Cuiping blush.
Su Lixuan almost pointed at her nose and called her "double standard".
If the same thing happens to her, it's just "stealing" and has nothing to do with her.
If the money falls to Li Yanhong's family, she will consider it as "borrowed" and she will determine that Li Yanhong's family has joint liability and should pay compensation.
Such a comparison... it's so embarrassing.
It's shameful that she is so double-standard and unreasonable.
Seeing that Zhuang Cuiping was completely speechless, Su Lixuan shifted her gaze to Old Lady Wang, her eyes mocking: "Grandma Wang, don't hide. Didn't you agree with what Aunt Zhuang said just now?"
"Oh, I remember now!"
Su Lixuan changed the subject and smiled maliciously.
"My board wasn't 'borrowed' by A-Zhan from the banker. I misremembered it. A-Zhan mentioned it to me before and said it was actually 'borrowed' from your family."
She spread her hands and said, "There's nothing we can do about it. Just wait, Zhang Guifang will blackmail you soon. After all, this matter has something to do with you."
As she spoke, she looked sharply at the others, especially those who had just spoken on Zhang Guifang's behalf.
The corners of his mouth curled up, and his voice was cold with undisguised gloating.
Su Lixuan continued, "And Brother Xu, do you think our board was 'borrowed' from your family?"
"Oh, why can't I remember who I 'borrowed' it from?"
She called out their names one by one: "Aunt Niu, Sister Cai... Do you remember the board that caused the accident? Does it look familiar to you? Does it look like the wooden board in your house?"
"Hey, don't go. Grandma Wang, why are you leaving so quickly? This is no small matter. It concerns the compensation for Lu Bo and his wife. We have to talk it out today."
"Hey, why are you all leaving? Don't you want to watch anymore? You guys are so kind, why don't you continue to speak up for Zhang Guifang? Walk slowly, it really doesn't matter which family's board it is, there's no need to feel guilty..."
