“I know!” A crisp and tender voice rang out, and little sister Su squeezed in from the back. Her little face was red with sweat.
She had wanted to help when she saw her eldest sister being bullied by her second aunt, but she was worried that second aunt would smash the eggs, so she rushed home to keep the eggs before coming back.
Su Wen looked at little sister Su and her eyes lit up. She couldn’t help but smile. She secretly gave little sister Su a ‘keep it up’ gesture, and the little girl lowered her head shyly.
Hehe… She could finally help big sister; she was so happy!
Little sister Su felt warm inside. She mustered up her courage and said, “Cousin Pingfan is busy dating Wu Lili, that’s why he’s not in the mood to go to school.”
Everyone in the village knew who Wu Lili was.
A female educated youth from Youth district. Recently, the educated youths were all looking for ways to return to the city. By hook or by crook, those who had found a way back, had all gone back. Many were already married, and in order to return to the city, they had abandoned their families.
It was said that, previously, in Canter village, a female educated youth had shamelessly seduced the village chief in order to get a return certificate, and was caught in bed with him.
The villagers’ impression of the educated youths was getting steadily worse. Whenever they were mentioned, their faces were full of disgust.
When they heard that Su Pingfan was dating Wu Lili instead of attending classes, the villagers’ opinions of Su Pingfan immediately changed.
“You’re talking nonsense.” Zhang Chunxiang shrieked, “That’s not true. I’ll tear you sisters’ rotten mouths apart.” As she said that, she pounced over with a ferocious expression. Due to her own reputation, she didn’t dare to attack little sister Su before everyone because of her young age, so she went straight for Su Wen.
Little sister Su saw that her big sister was about to be hit and dashed over, using her thin body to shield her.
Su Wen’s heart burned at the sight. She reacted quickly and pulled little sister Su behind her, her body in a defensive posture. As long as Zhang Chunxiang dared to hit her, she would kick her first.
But fortunately, the people who were watching the show did not merely watch the show. At the crucial moment, they stepped forward and pulled Zhang Chunxiang back.
At this point, Zhang Chunxiang was already regretting her decision.
If she had known that Su Wen would be so difficult to deal with, she would not have been so impulsive.
“Alright, stop it.” Third grandma also saw the problem and knew that they couldn’t continue to make a fuss. “Let’s leave! It’s the middle of the day – why aren’t you preparing your meals at home? Do you all have nothing better to do?”
Everyone slapped their thighs and realized that it was already mealtime. They didn’t care about the commotion and immediately dispersed.
Zhang Chunxiang knew that if she didn’t explain it clearly that day, Pingfan’s reputation in the village would definitely be greatly damaged. She wanted Su Wen to apologize, but the two sisters ignored her. They held hands as if they had won a battle and went home with their heads held high.
*****
In the afternoon, the news of Su Pingfan not going to school and dating an educated youth had spread. Many people secretly laughed at them, especially the Li family, who had always had conflicts with the Su family. It would be strange if they didn’t take the opportunity to kick them when they were down.
After Chen Guihua heard the rumors, she was so happy that she was dancing.
“They deserve it! I already said that Su Pingfan wasn’t a good person, and everyone was protecting him.” Chen Guihua had long been envious of Su Pingfan. They were both boys. How was her Zhuangzhuang worse than Su Pingfan?
“Alright, stop adding on.” Su Xueqiang was the third son of the Su family. His skin was tanned and he had a pair of sharp triangular eyes. He was already sick of hearing Chen Guihua’s never-ending curses.
“You were caught for stealing. That’s embarrassing enough, and you still have the cheek to talk about others.”
“What did I steal? I didn’t steal anything.” Chen Guihua refused to admit it, and she really hadn’t stolen anything this time. “It’s all because of Su Wen, that little b****, trying to frame me. Just wait! I’ll make her suffer this time.”
