Qin Man's eyes were filled with gloom, and just one glance was enough to make Zhang Lanlan feel scared.

She began to tremble slightly, but her mouth remained stiff and it didn't affect her talking at all.

"You dare to hit me? My father is the village chief. Even if you don't take me seriously, you can't lose face for him, right?"

"Then ask the village chief to come and judge. So many people here have heard you making up rumors and smearing my innocence. The village chief is a man who knows right from wrong. Let him see whether you should be beaten or not."

Qin Man was very confident and not afraid of her threats at all. Someone had already gone to inform the village chief.

Jiang Lian stood in front of Qin Man, looking at Zhang Lanlan provocatively, not intending to save her face.

"Zhang Lanlan, everyone in the village knows that you like my brother and want to marry him. You even resorted to some shameful means behind his back. Do you think we don't know?

I just didn't bother with you for my uncle's sake, but now you've already married someone else and you're going back to your hometown on New Year's Day with a big belly to be a gossip. If Shuiwang knew that you're still so fickle and changeable, I don't know if he would still want you!"

Jiang Lian's mouth was also chattering, which made Zhang Lanlan feel ashamed. She lowered her head and covered her face, not daring to speak.

"Yes, she is already 29 years old, why did she come all the way back? How can a new bride go back to her parents' home for the first Chinese New Year?"

"I'm afraid he had a quarrel with Shui Wang!"

The villagers began to talk among themselves again.

"No matter what I do, you shouldn't hit me. I'm pregnant. If something happens to my baby, can you afford to pay for it?"

Zhang Lanlan held her belly, and her whole body became stiff.

"You are as strong as a bull, what can possibly happen to you? Even if there is trouble, it is your own fault. Who told you to be a bad mouth?"

Qin Man looked at her provocatively. After she got pregnant, she must have gained at least 40 pounds. Her whole body was swollen. If you didn't look closely, you wouldn't recognize her!

Jiang Cong received the news and hurried over with his family, fearing that Qin Man would suffer a loss.

"Manman, what's wrong?" Jiang Cong walked over and looked Qin Man up and down.

"I'm fine, I just got mad at a woman with a mouth full of shit!"

As Qin Man said this, she glared at Zhang Lanlan.

Zhang Lanlan felt ashamed when she saw Jiang Cong coming. She was too embarrassed to face him in such a horrible state.

In comparison, Qin Man became more and more feminine, dressed fashionably and elegantly, with a rosy complexion and a graceful figure. Standing next to Jiang Cong, she was a perfect match.

"Zhang Lanlan, do you find it fun to do this over and over again?" Jiang Cong looked at her with a cold face.

Zhang Lanlan stopped talking. No matter what she said, he would not believe it. She was really too unwilling at that time, so she just wanted to satisfy her craving, but she didn't expect that the real owner would hear it.

The village chief came over not long after. The person who went to call him had already told him the whole story on the way. When he arrived, he felt embarrassed when he saw Jiang Cong's family.

"You little bitch, what are you doing back at this time? What do you look like?"

Zhang Lanlan saw her father coming over and immediately felt wronged. She came to him with her back supported and pulled his sleeve with her hand:

"Dad, Shui Wang is too much. I can't stand it!"

"Marry a man, marry a man, give him clothes and food, live a good life with him, don't cause trouble, and give him a big fat boy to carry on the family line. Life will get better with a child. You have been married for less than a year, and you are going back to your parents' home during the New Year. What do you want people to say about us?"

Also, why are you saying nonsense to slander Jiang Cong's wife? She has provoked you, why don't you pay her back!"

When the village chief came over, instead of feeling sorry for his daughter, he started to blame her. Zhang Lanlan felt even more aggrieved and started crying.

"She even slapped me!" Her face was still red.

"You deserve to be beaten. Who told you to speak so harshly?" the village chief scolded.

"I don't apologize, I don't want an apology. I told her off, and she hit me. Now we're even. If you don't welcome me back, I'm leaving now!"

Zhang Lanlan made a move to leave, but Qin Man stepped forward and grabbed her, not letting her go.

"What do you mean by even? If we really start to settle the bill, it's not over yet!"

Today, Qin Man insisted that she give her compensation and apologize before the matter would be over.

"You've already hit me, and your family has already scolded me, so why are you still so stubborn? Isn't that inappropriate?" Zhang Lanlan wanted to shake off Qin Man's hand, but Qin Man's hand was too strong.

"The grudge between you and me is not limited to this. Last year, when my brain was not good, I was playing by the reservoir and you pushed me into the reservoir, trying to drown me. I haven't settled the score with you yet!"

Now that things have come to this, she was the one who provoked me first, so I'll take advantage of this opportunity today to settle the score!

Zhang Lanlan's face turned pale in an instant and her lips trembled. She never thought that she would suddenly bring up this matter again.
