"Then let me ask you, did you see it with your own eyes? If you say so, how can I still say that I saw you having an affair with a stranger? Does it mean that whatever I say is right? As long as you open your mouth, everything is right, right? Who do you really think you are?"
Su Chunjiao blushed immediately after hearing this and retorted, "How can you smear my reputation? I have never done such a thing."
"You know it's slander, and you think your words are evidence. Besides, besides those two, you can ask if anyone else saw it. Ask whoever called you to rescue them and see if he saw it."
"It's me, it's me, Grandma Li." At this time, a boy behind the crowd responded loudly.
He just wanted to squeeze in to explain the situation, but the front was surrounded tightly and he couldn't squeeze in at all, and he couldn't get a word in.
"I, I saw it too. It was Zhiqing Zhong who was standing behind Zhiqing Xiao Song. Zhiqing Xiao Song suddenly crawled on the ground to pick up duck eggs, and Zhong Zhiqing fell into the river in a gust of wind."
"Yes, yes, I saw it too. Su Zhiqing even called me Xiao Song Zhiqing at that time!"
The explanations given by the children made everyone present understand what had happened. When Su Chunjiao and Hu Yan heard the explanations given by the children, their faces turned pale.
Everyone's expressions were different, and they all suddenly understood.
They all started discussing in low voices.
"I didn't expect that Zhong Zhiqing, who usually looks so high and mighty, is really that kind of person. I thought..."
"Yeah, I kind of believe what Hu Zhiqing and the others said. It's really not right. Zhong Zhiqing is usually arrogant and domineering, but I didn't expect him to do something like harming others."
"No wonder that young man Jiang Zhiqing looked down on her. If it were me, I wouldn't look down on her either."
"She deserved it. She wanted to hurt others but ended up hurting herself. I have to remind my children to stay away from this person in the future. If they marry someone like this, they will definitely bring disaster upon entering the family."
"Yes, yes, yes. Who told my daughter to stay away from her?"
Everyone present was discussing the matter one after another, except Song Tanglan, who now wished he could dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it.
I didn't expect that not only would my best friend see me in such an embarrassing posture, but I would also be surrounded by a group of children. I covered my eyes and acted as if I didn't see anything.
She really didn't expect that her posture just now was seen by a group of children, and they even said it in front of everyone. This was very damaging to her image.
Now the way everyone looked at her, with their lack of confidence in their eyes, gave her a headache.
If she had known earlier, she would have waited for Sun Zhiqing and the others to come back before picking up those duck eggs. Now everyone in the team knows that she escaped a disaster by lying on the ground in order to pick up a few duck eggs.
When Xiaohu heard there were duck eggs by the river, he immediately walked to the river and picked up all the duck eggs below, imitating Song Tanglan's posture. He shouted happily, "Auntie Lan, there are really a lot of duck eggs here. I picked them up for you."
At this time, everyone's attention shifted to Xiaohu and Song Tanglan. Song Tanglan wanted to grab Xiaohu and run away. It was really embarrassing.
"Alright, alright, now that we know what happened, why don't you two apologize to the two educated youth? How can you just leave like that after spouting such nonsense? I'm glad I didn't ask you to pay compensation."
Su Chunjiao was really shameless. Seeing that her plan failed, she looked trembling and pitiful, and reluctantly apologized to Song Tanglan and Su Tao.
Hu Yan had never suffered such an injustice before, so she ran away crying. However, she didn't know that her reputation in the team would be even worse if she left.
After this happened, they no longer had the mood to continue looking for duck eggs, but instead each took their own harvest and went home.
Su Tao and the other two had a pretty good harvest. Each of them had two or three wild duck eggs, but they didn't catch any wild ducks, which was a pity for them.
Yu He couldn't help but tease him, "Little Song, the educated youth, by tomorrow, the whole brigade will know that you were lying on your hands and knees picking up duck eggs."
"Why don't you say that I escaped a disaster because of this posture." Song Tanglan would be more shameless in front of his friends, and replied unwillingly.
Su Tao couldn't help but agree: "That's right, besides, Lanlan found more than a dozen wild duck eggs, and you only have three. How dare you laugh at others here?"
Sun Jianhua saw the two girls were angry, so he comforted them, "It's a good thing that you've turned danger into safety."
Su Tao nodded in agreement when she heard this. Yu He thought he had just made a joke. These people actually joined forces with me to bully me, and even my cousin didn't help him. He angrily started arguing with Su Tao again.
They chatted all the way, leaving all their recent worries behind.
…
Song Tanglan went back and gave half of the duck eggs to Xiaohu to repay Aunt Li for her protection just now.
She had just arrived home. Song Tangcheng had gotten the news from somewhere and was anxiously waiting for her at the door. When he saw her come back, he pulled her up and down to look her up and down. Only then did he feel relieved when he found that there was nothing unexpected.
"Are you injured anywhere?"
"No, no, you know, Second Sister!"
"How could Second Sister not know? You still want to hide this from Second Sister? That Zhong Shuyi is so despicable. If I weren't pregnant, I would go and slap her right now. She's such a little girl, but she's so vicious. She deserved it if she fell into the river."
Seeing how excited she was, Song Tanglan smiled and helped her back to the room. A belly that was more than eight months old caused too many inconveniences. Now that they had to go to work, they were really worried about her being alone at home, so they asked Xiaoli and Xiaodong to stay with her, at least they could notify them if anything happened.
