However, Li Caihua was not as fortunate as Wang Yongmei. The revelation of her taking 500 dollars from the middleman had spread, and everyone turned against her. Suspicion arose about her past actions as well. Those who had hoped their children could have a better life gathered at Li Caihua’s house and smashed everything.
They not only want her to return the ill-gotten gains but also compensate for the damages. It caused a huge uproar, and she had no choice but to flee the village and seek refuge at her parents’ home.
Su Wen didn’t pay much attention to the events outside. After bidding farewell to Xiaoya, she rested at home for a week.
For the past three days, she hadn’t left the house, spending her time eating, sleeping, and contemplating her future. Whether it was Su Xiaoya being sent away or her experience in the Province, it had instilled a strong sense of urgency in her.
“Big sister, what are you doing?” Su Qing asked as she entered Su Wen’s room and saw her rummaging through the belongings, turning the tidy room into chaos. “What are you looking for?”
“A photograph. ”
“What photograph? Tell me, and I’ll help you find it. Aunt Chunyan and a few villagers are here to see you. They’re waiting in the main hall!” Su Qing rolled up her sleeves, offering her help to Su Wen.
“Aren’t they busy?” Another reason Su Wen hadn’t ventured outside recently was that the villagers were engrossed in farming.
Since the land had been switched to a household contract system, the villagers’ enthusiasm for work had reached unprecedented heights. They barely had time for lunch, with everyone, including the elderly and children, being sent to the fields.
Su Wen’s family had drawn lots for a barren hill, which remained infertile and unsuitable for cultivation. This made them stand out in the village. If they wandering around aimlessly would invite gossip.
Furthermore, Su Wen had gained significant attention during Su Xiaoya’s incident, so she needed to keep a low profile in the future.
“It’s raining heavily outside. It’s not advisable to go to the garden, so they came out for a visit.”
“Okay!” Su Wen turned around, leaving the cabinet. She felt exhausted and was sweating profusely. Glancing out the window, she confirmed the heavy rain. The sound of raindrops falling under the eaves was soothing to the ears, possessing a unique artistic charm.
While Su Wen was lost in thought, staring out the window, Su Qing stole a glance at her. “Big sister, what are you looking at?”
“Nothing,” Su Wen snapped back to reality. “Oh, by the way, do you know where our mother’s photograph is?”
When Su Wen saw Liu Juan in the Province, she suspected Liu Juan was related to the Host’s mother, prompting her to search for old photos.
Upon hearing Su Wen’s interest in their mother’s photograph, Su Qing’s eyes sparkled with surprise. Such matters never piqued her sister’s interest before.
“Why are you suddenly looking for old photos?”
“Nothing, I just met someone in the Province,” Su Wen replied, avoiding the mention of Liu Juan to prevent any leaks.
“I have an old photo. It’s with me. I’ll give it to you later.”
“Alright.”
While the sisters talked, Wang Chunyan, growing impatient from waiting in the main hall, shouted from a distance, “Wen girl, why are you hiding in the room? Come out!”
“I am here!”
Braving the rain, Su Wen quickly ran to the main hall. Upon entering, she couldn’t help but smile upon seeing he people gathered in the room.
Even He Yulan, who had been ridiculed for selling steamed cakes, was there.
Second Aunt Zhang Chunxiang was also there, having kept a low profile since Second Uncle was caught red-handed.
She came today for a reason..
