“What happened?” Zhou Yan stood at the door and looked around curiously. “It seems like everyone ran to the back.”
Su Xiu’s smile stiffened, and she secretly prayed that it wasn’t something bad. It was fine if the villagers knew about it, but if outsiders knew, it would be too embarrassing. It would reflect well on Trinity village, especially since they were trying to compete for the title of an exemplary community!
“No… I don’t think so!”
“Let’s go and take a look!” Zhou Yan was eager to find out what was going on. She had been waiting for almost an afternoon, but Su Wen hadn’t returned yet. She wasn’t familiar with anyone here. Now that she heard that something had happened, she might be able to help if she went to take a look!
The way Su Xiu looked at Zhou Yan changed. She thought, “This elegant auntie was actually…gossip tendencies!”
That’s right, it was precisely what Big sister often referred to as gossip.
Su Xiu wasn’t a person who liked to join in the fun, but she was worried about letting Zhou Yan go alone. After returning to the room to inform Su Qing, who was busy making bags, Su Xiu reluctantly led Zhou Yan to the back.
The houses in Trinity village were arranged in rows from front to back, east to west. The Su family lived in the front row, on the west side of the village. The commotion seemed to be coming from the houses in the rear row. Su Xiu had an uneasy feeling when she arrived with Zhou Yan.
This house seems to be Big sister Yao?
Su Xiu had been working in the fields with He Yulan, and now they were making steamed cakes together. He Yulan had shared a lot of village gossip with her. Among them, there were mentions of Big sister Yao, who was rumored to be quite unpleasant. He Yulan even warned Su Xiu to stay away from her.
Standing outside the crowd, Su Xiu immediately spotted Zhang Chunxiang rushing into the door with a fierce look. From inside, there came hysterical screams, scuffling, and cries for help. It made everyone feel uneasy, wondering what could have happened to make Second aunt cry so miserably. She turned her head and saw Su Pingping with red eyes.
“Sister Pingping.”
Su Pingping was the same age as Su Xiu, but she was a few months older than Su Xiu, so she was Su Xiu’s cousin. Logically speaking, they should have had a close relationship as cousins, but due to the complex relationship between
Zhang Chunxiang and Su Xuewu, their cousinship had never been very close.
They hardly ever talked to each other.
“What’s happening? What happened inside?”
When Su Xiu asked, Zhou Yan also looked over curiously. Before Su Pingping could answer, Su Xueyong’s wife began vividly describing the situation, “It’s a scandal. How many years has it been since our Trinity village has had a
scandal? Tsk, tsk, tsk… I’m almost ashamed to talk about it. Xiu, can you believe that our Su family has produced such scoundrels?”
The more Su Xueyong’s wife said, the more Su Pingping cried.
“The two brothers fought over a woman.”
“Zhang Chunxiang was still mocking Chen Guihua a moment ago. Who would have thought that karma would come back to bite her so quickly.” “This matter has caused a huge ruckus. I’ve lost all my face.”
Everyone whispered around.
As the surrounding people whispered, Su Xiu’s expression grew increasingly unpleasant. After all, they were her Second uncle and Third uncle, and as their niece, she felt embarrassed. She discreetly glanced at Zhou Yan from the corner of her eyes but didn’t see any signs of disdain on her face, which relieved her.
In the room, Zhang Chunxiang glared at Widow Yao and Su Xuewu with bloodshot eyes. All the blood in her body rushed to her head. She felt as if her face had been torn off and thrown to the ground and stepped on fiercely.
Just a moment ago, she had been mocking Chen Guihua, and now karma had swiftly caught up to her. She couldn’t believe that she had thought herself capable of keeping a man. She had always known about Su Xueqiang and Widow Yao’s affair and had discussed it privately with others in the village, secretly watching Chen Guihua make a fool of herself..
