The wicked mother-in-law doesn't try to whitewash herself; she only abuses her awful children.

Chapter 642 Happiness comes too suddenly

When Magistrate Liu came to Qinghewan for inspection, he often brought Liu Yanhong with him.

In addition, Liu Yanhong would frequently visit Tong Huaqiong's house, and once he arrived at Qinghewan, he would chase dogs and chickens all over the village. Therefore, most people in the village knew that he was the son of Magistrate Liu.

When Liu Yanhong heard Wu Na call him a wild child, his face turned red with anger.

Yao Zu, who came with Liu Yanhong, said, "He's not an orphan; his father is Magistrate Liu."

Wu Na was a little scared.

Xiao Long said coldly, "So what if your father is the village head of Yan Guan Town? The daughter of a mere village head dares to make such outrageous threats to collect more grain taxes. It's clear that your father often does this. The extra grain taxes must have been embezzled. This should be thoroughly investigated."

Reminded by Xiaolong, Liu Yanhong straightened up and said, "That's right, I'll tell my father when I get back tomorrow and ask him to investigate this thoroughly."

Wu Na's legs felt weak.

He deeply regretted offending the magistrate's son.

Her father's background is anything but clean; if he's investigated, the whole family might be exiled.

Her dowry also disappeared completely.

But then again, how could she know that the mud-covered, wild child in front of her was the son of Magistrate Liu?

It was all because of that slut Tong Pandi that she got so angry that she blurted out those hurtful words.

There's also Tong Huaqiong, the county magistrate's son was recruited by her.

Wu Na steadied herself, forced a smile, and said to Liu Yanhong, "Young Master Liu, I was just joking. Don't take it seriously."

Xiao Long added fuel to the fire, saying, "Since your father is innocent, he's not afraid of being investigated."

Liu Yanhong continued to agree: "That's right. I think it's better to investigate, otherwise your father's innocence will be ruined by you."

After saying that, he didn't even look at Wu Na, waved to Tong Huaqiong, and followed Xiao Long to find Man'er.

Wu Na was filled with remorse. She looked at Tong Huaqiong, hoping that Tong Huaqiong would put in a good word for Magistrate Liu for the sake of the old house.

After all, you can't write two "谷" characters in one stroke.

Aunt

"Don't call me. I'm busy."

Tong Huaqiong saw through Wu Na's scheme, rolled her eyes, and thought to herself that begging me was useless.

Why did you provoke Tong Pandi and threaten the villagers?

"Ruinian's family is such a troublemaker. What good would it do her to ruin her own father's life?"

“Auntie, you’ve forgotten that the dowry her family promised when she got married wasn’t given in full. Maybe she’s holding a grudge against her father because of that and is taking the opportunity to get revenge.”

"Speaking of which, the head of Heilongtan is arrogant and spoiled. Look at him, he threatens people to collect grain taxes at the drop of a hat. Fortunately, Wu Ren is not the head of our Yanguan Town, otherwise our lives would be very difficult."

The villagers were talking about it.

Wu Na turned pale upon hearing this.

She dared not stay in front of the stage any longer, regretting that she had not listened to Gu Ruinian and stayed at home.

Wu Na staggered and pushed through the crowd toward her home. She wanted Ruinian to borrow a donkey cart so she could return to her parents' home in Heilongtan that very night and tell her father, Magistrate Liu, that he was going to investigate her and that he should destroy all the account books.

After Wu Na left, Tong Pandi did not sit in the empty seat.

Master Su thought that Tong Pandi was going to distance herself from him because of Wu Na's words, and he was very anxious.

Tong Huaqiong patted Tong Pandi on the shoulder and said, "Sit down and listen to the opera."

Tong Huaqiong knew that her eldest niece loved listening to opera. Last year, when Tong Pandi was in Pingchuan County, she would go to the opera troupe to listen to operas after finishing her work at Jufulai.

Tong Pandi smiled at Tong Huaqiong and remained standing, meeting the ambiguous gazes of the crowd.

Wu Na's words about Su Fuzi's feelings for her made everyone jump up and down in the melon patch. The women around, all shrewd and perceptive, combined Wu Na's words with Su Fuzi's usual fatherly treatment of Hua'er and Duo'er, and the fact that they lived relatively close by—it all seemed like a story was unfolding.

After class, Master Su would often run to the pig farm to help Tong Pandi feed the pigs.

Although everyone believed that Su Fuzi was a person of integrity who would not do anything to seduce respectable women, Tong Pandi had already divorced him.

Could it be that there is some unspeakable secret between the two of them?

After all, one is unmarried and the other is divorced; it's not uncommon for feelings to develop over time.

The eyes of those around him grew intense.

Tong Pandi took a deep breath and smiled at the aunties and wives around her, saying, "I was originally looking forward to watching the show, but my former sister-in-law ruined it. You can tell what kind of life I had in the Wu family from her attitude towards me."

The people around nodded.

During the time Wu Na married Gu Ruinian, everyone knew how much chaos she had turned the Gu family upside down.

Tong Pandi looked at Tong Huaqiong and said to everyone, "Back then, it was thanks to my aunt's intervention that I dared to get a divorce. My successful divorce was inseparable from Master Su. The Wu family was unwilling to let me go, but Master Su reasoned with them and persuaded them, allowing me to escape my misery. My former sister-in-law is malicious and sees everyone as having ulterior motives, so she used this incident to slander Master Su and me from back then."

“If she doesn’t bring up the past and only talks about my current relationship with Master Su, I won’t hit her.”

Everyone perked up. What did Tong Pandi mean by that?
What is meant by the current relationship with Master Su?
Tong Huaqiong and Su Fuzi looked at Tong Pandi, not understanding why Tong Pandi was trying to say those words.

Tong Pandi glanced at her aunt and Master Su, and continued, "Master Su is an upright person. Master Su and I are planning to invite everyone to a banquet in a while. We originally intended to send out the invitations in a few days. But we're taking this opportunity to tell you all now, so that Wu Na won't slander Master Su and me again."

Tong Huaqiong and Madam Hong were not surprised by Tong Pandi's words.

Tong Pandi had already expressed his stance to Tong Huaqiong and the Hong family this morning.

The fact that it was made public in front of everyone was something that neither Tong Huaqiong nor the Hong family had expected.

Tong Huaqiong and Hong Shi exchanged a glance. They both knew that Tong Pandi was doing this for Su Fuzi's sake, silencing any criticism of Su Fuzi.

Everyone, including Master Su, was stunned.

Especially Su Fuzi, who clearly rejected Tong Pandi again when he confessed his feelings in December, how come he suddenly agreed, and even in front of everyone.

Happiness came too suddenly, and Master Su was a little dizzy.

“This is a good thing. I’ve been advising you before, Pan Di, to consider remarrying if you meet someone suitable. I think Master Su would be a perfect match.” Zhao Shi, Liu Yue’e’s mother, spoke first, her eyes gleaming with anticipation for the couple.

Aunt Qin chimed in, "That's right. Master Su is six years older than Pan Di. It's good that he's older; he knows how to care for people."

Tong Huaqiong: "."

Master Su: "."

Hearing Zhao and Aunt Qin agree to the marriage in unison, everyone else chimed in.

"Yes, yes."

"They're a perfect match, let's just wait to drink their wedding wine."

“Master Su is married now, so he’ll be staying in Qinghe Bay from now on. We won’t have to worry about him leaving anymore. Let him teach us a few more Gu Jingzhe.”

Master Su is the children's teacher. If he angers them and they go to teach elsewhere, Village Chief Liu will kill them.

Even if someone has a problem with it, they don't dare to say it.

While spitting out sunflower seed shells, Er Gouzi's grandmother said, "Master Su, you should get married soon. A while ago, someone arranged a marriage for my Er Gouzi. The girl took a liking to you when she came to meet Er Gouzi. If you get married, you won't be blocking the good marriages of the bachelors in the village."

Master Su's face darkened.

"Great joy, great joy!"

When Village Chief Liu heard about the disturbance in front of the stage, he put down his bowl and rushed over. As soon as he arrived, he took a bite of a big melon.

He rubbed his hands together with delight, and now Master Su was permanently stationed in Qinghe Bay.
