The next day was a bright and sunny day.
The ground was so muddy that it was impossible to walk.
The team's loudspeaker announced that there was no need to work.
Yunling was just about to lie down and take another nap when she heard Qin Tiantian outside shouting that she was going up the mountain to pick mushrooms.
She turned to Qin Chuan and asked, "Are you going?"
“Go ahead! It just rained, and the mountain roads are difficult to walk on. We can take you to Crescent Lake another day,” Qin Chuan said.
"Okay!" Yunling wasn't actually disappointed; she quite enjoyed picking mushrooms.
Every time I pick mushrooms, it feels like I'm on a treasure hunt.
I feel very satisfied.
"You can pick up more and give some to your parents," Qin Chuan suggested.
So that the two elders wouldn't worry about their daughter having a hard time in the countryside.
Yunling nodded.
That's right.
The family went mushroom picking in a great hurry. On the way, Yunling saw Tian Gang carrying a small basket, looking rather shady.
She blinked and asked curiously, "What's wrong with him?"
Qin Chuan looked at it for a while, but couldn't figure it out either.
He shook his head and looked at his mother.
Yunling also looked at her mother-in-law.
Although my mother-in-law isn't very gossipy, she gets a lot of attention and people want to chat with her because she's the team leader's wife.
There's nothing about the team that she doesn't know.
Zhang Guihua did know, though. She had just come out early this morning when Zhang Hongxia stopped her and told her a lot of gossip, including things about the educated youth settlement.
After Tian Gang walked away, she quietly recounted what had happened at the educated youth settlement the day before.
Yunling wasn't surprised at all; she was used to it. She guessed, "So, is it over between the two of them now?"
I've already received the IOU.
Zhang Guihua smiled and said, "There's still more trouble to come. It's not certain whether they'll pay back the money."
She had a general idea of Chen Rong's family situation.
They favored sons over daughters, and their family was very poor.
It's good enough if they don't ask Chen Rong for anything, let alone give her anything.
Otherwise, Chen Rong wouldn't have been flirting with other women in the team.
If conditions allowed, no normal woman would be willing to do such a thing.
"She's obviously shrewd. Her eyes are like hooks, watery and always pretending to be pitiful." Liu Yun was disgusted.
She's delicate and weak when it comes to work, and always needs the help of men.
She always pretends to be pitiful to gain men's sympathy.
Pooh!
Despicable!
Zhang Guihua frowned and said, "Don't say things like that outside, it's easy to cause trouble."
Liu Yun nodded and said, "I only say this in front of you. I don't even say it in front of Lan Hua."
She knows what she can and cannot say; she's well aware of it.
"Mom, don't worry, I won't cause any trouble for the family," she assured, patting her chest.
Zhang Guihua nodded.
We've reached the foot of the mountain; there's already a lot to see.
Yunling glanced around and immediately saw many familiar figures.
Areas with a high incidence of incidents.
There might be some excitement to watch.
So she didn't go far; she just picked mushrooms nearby.
As soon as Qin Chuan noticed, she ran over to pick them.
In no time, they had picked half a basketful.
Just as I was hesitating whether to go far away, I heard arguing not far away.
She immediately pulled Qin Chuan forward.
Qin Chuan was speechless.
He reiterated that this was the first time he had ever seen such a gossipy person.
But who can blame him when this person is his wife?
He could only follow his wife's lead.
Arrived at the scene.
Then I saw Zhang Lanhua standing with her hands on her hips, cursing loudly.
Standing opposite her was her sister-in-law, Lin Ting.
No one is surprised.
After all, Lin Ting and Zhao Wen had an affair, even though it's over now, they still had it.
Since Zhao Wen is Zhang Lanhua's man, it's not unreasonable for him to hit Lin Ting.
It was Lin Ting's fault for doing something wrong.
Lin Ting covered her face, staring in astonishment at the woman in front of her—no, she shouldn't be called a woman, she should be called a shrew.
She just stole one mushroom from her, is it really that big of a deal?
He slapped her right away and started cursing at her.
She must be afraid to provoke her mother-in-law, so she took her anger out on her.
Why did they have to fight now of all times?
As Zhang Lanhua's curses became increasingly vulgar, she even insulted her parents.
Lin Ting yelled, "Shut up!"
Then he rushed up and slapped her twice.
Although she grew up in a small town, she is considered well-educated and polite.
But things gradually changed after I went to the countryside.
She is no longer the person she used to be.
If someone hits her, she dares to hit back, instead of adhering to the gentlemanly principle of using words rather than fists.
After hitting me, he jumped up a lot and said righteously, "You can insult me, but you can't insult my parents."
Zhang Lanhua was in pain from the beating, but it didn't stop her from shouting, "So what if I hit you? Just because you seduced your husband's brother, you're a slut. Your parents must be no good to raise a daughter like you. Maybe your mother did similar things when she was young, but no one found out. I'll go to your parents' workplace and tell them, so they'll be too ashamed to show their faces."
She wanted to slap Lin Ting, but that damned woman was hiding in the crowd like an eel, impossible to catch.
All she could do was keep cursing.
Knowing that Lin Ting didn't want to hear her curse her parents, she still did it anyway.
That'll infuriate her.
And she wasn't lying; she really did plan to find time to cause a scene at Lin Ting's parents' workplace.
Anyway, she knew where Lin Ting's parents worked; her mother-in-law had told her long ago.
Sure enough, Lin Ting panicked when she heard that Zhang Lanhua was going to cause trouble at her parents' workplace.
She knew her mother hadn't done anything to betray her father.
But public opinion can be a powerful force, especially when it comes to relationships between men and women.
When people have doubts, they can't even produce any evidence.
If her parents knew it was her who caused the trouble.
I have to beat her to death.
Looking at Zhang Lanhua's arrogant appearance, Lin Ting had a sudden thought and said, "If you go and talk nonsense, I will call the police and have you arrested. Lying has consequences. Besides, your son often steals things, so I will report him and make him go to jail at such a young age."
She was aggressive.
This move, as expected, made people hesitant to act for fear of harming the innocent.
Zhang Lanhua's expression softened. She suddenly smiled, but it was very stiff. She said through gritted teeth, "I was just joking with you. Just because we are sisters-in-law, I would never do anything to betray you."
She gasped for breath and said, "However, if you do anything to betray me, I will take you down with me."
Her two sons were her life.
We need to manage this better in the future.
We can't let them steal anymore.
Lin Ting breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If you don't do anything to betray me, how could I do anything to betray you?"
So the two reconciled.
They went their separate ways to pick mushrooms.
Yunling stood there for a while, then suddenly sighed, "People still can't have weaknesses."
Her resolve hardened; she would keep a low profile, ensuring that her transmigration and the system remained a secret.
Especially now that the situation is so turbulent, she'll be finished if she's exposed.
Even if she has a lover and children in the future, she won't tell anyone.
