Zhou Nuannuan is simple-minded and wears her heart on her sleeve. Tang Wenlin and Zhang Shuhua could tell at a glance that Zhou Nuannuan didn't welcome them.

Tang Qingyuan stepped forward, smiled at Zhou Nuannuan, and said, "It's alright, we'll wait here for your parents."

Zhou Nuannuan's lips were a little stiff. "Then, let's go inside first."

As they were talking, Jin Aiyun came out of the house. When she saw Tang Wenlin and his wife, she immediately frowned, but she did not rudely chase them away.

"Sister-in-law is here, please come in and have a seat."

Zhang Shuhua walked over with a smile, called Jin Aiyun "sister-in-law," and reached out to take Jin Aiyun's arm, but Jin Aiyun dodged and turned back to the living room.

Zhang Shuhua's hand froze in mid-air. She tugged at the corner of her lips, awkwardly withdrew her hand, and then followed.

Zhou Jianguo was sitting in a chair reading a newspaper when he saw them coming. He put down the newspaper and stood up.

"The Wenlin brothers are here."

Tang Wenlin walked over and placed the gifts on the table, then bowed slightly to Zhou Jianguo, "Brother Zhou, you didn't go to the army today?"

Zhou Jianguo nodded and pointed to the chair next to him, "Sit, everyone sit."

As the group sat down, Jin Aiyun thought of what Zhao Jianzhong had said yesterday, that he hadn't given their family a friendly look.

"Sister-in-law, you can just say what you need. Don't bring anything next time you come; we can't afford it."

Zhou Yanxing sat with her legs crossed, listening to her mother's sarcastic remarks and watching the frustrated expressions on Tang Wenlin and his wife's faces. She felt incredibly satisfied.

Tang Wenlin glanced at Zhou Jianguo.

Zhou Jianguo nodded slightly at Tang Wenlin as if he hadn't heard what Jin Aiyun said.

Tang Wenlin pursed his lips and forced a smile.

Zhang Shuhua was put in an awkward position. Although she was angry, she didn't dare to show it and kept smiling. "They're just some worthless things. I think Nuannuan looks much better lately. She seems to have gained a little weight and looks even more beautiful."

Speaking of this, Zhou Nuannuan smiled, "It was all thanks to Sister Yanyan who took care of me."

Zhang Shuhua's face darkened, and she really wanted to slap herself across the face. She forced a smile and said, "Comrade Lu Yan is really quite nice."

"Of course, our Xiao Lu is the best." Jin Aiyun raised the corners of her lips. "Sister-in-law, it's not that I don't respect you, it's just that you have a formidable daughter. I don't know whose power she's relying on, but yesterday several people actually bullied our Xiao Lu all by herself."

Upon hearing this, Tang Qingyuan's heart sank.

Jin Aiyun keeps mentioning their Xiao Lu. What does she mean by this? Does she really intend for Zhou Yanchen to marry a woman who has a child out of wedlock?

Jin Aiyun snorted, "Who doesn't know that Xiao Lu was hired by me to take care of Yan Chen? Your good daughter is bullying her. What, you're not even the niece-in-law of Commander Lin yet, and you already look down on the Zhou family? You're publicly humiliating the Zhou family. Tell me, do you think I'd dare eat anything from your family?"

Tang Wenlin and Zhang Shuhua were rendered speechless by Jin Aiyun's few words.

Tang Qingyuan nervously twisted her fingers and said softly, "Auntie, there is no place for me, a junior, to speak here, but I feel very guilty after learning about what happened yesterday."

After saying that, Tang Qingyuan lowered her head in shame.

She's already gone to such lengths; Jin Aiyun and Zhou Jianguo will surely comfort her.

But she waited for a long time and didn't hear a single word.

She slowly raised her head and saw Jin Aiyun leisurely drinking tea, Zhou Jianguo chatting quietly with her father, Zhou Nuannuan sitting to the side with her head down, and Zhou Yanxing shaking his head. No one paid any attention to her.

Why is it different from what she thought!

She bit her lip, her eyes reddening. "Auntie, are you angry with me? You should be angry with me. It's all my fault. Xiaoxia had a conflict with Comrade Lu Yan yesterday because of me. I already explained it to Xiaoxia yesterday and told her not to misunderstand Yan Chen and Comrade Lu Yan anymore. We all know that Comrade Lu Yan is just Yan Chen's nanny. Xiaoxia has misunderstood."

Tang Qingyuan repeatedly emphasized that Zhou Yanchen and Lu Yan had no relationship, hoping that Jin Aiyun would tell them that Zhou Yanchen and Lu Yan indeed had no relationship.

Zhou Nuannuan, listening from the side, felt a little dizzy.

Why does Qingyuan's statement sound so strange?

Jin Aiyun sneered.

This is why she dislikes Tang Qingyuan.

That's too cunning.

"Qingyuan, it's really not your place to interrupt when we elders are talking."

Tang Qingyuan's face turned pale, and she stared blankly at Jin Aiyun.

"But our family isn't the kind of feudal family. We won't say anything if you insist on interrupting. But Qingyuan, I want to ask you, why does your sales clerk friend think that Xiao Lu stole your man? When did you start dating my Yanchen?"

Tang Qingyuan hadn't expected Jin Aiyun to ask so bluntly, and her face immediately turned bright red. "Auntie, I, I, it's because..."

"It's because you mentioned it to her." Jin Aiyun was too lazy to waste words with her and directly exposed her little scheme. "If you hadn't told her, your friend wouldn't have been so hostile towards Xiao Lu. So, this is indeed your fault."

Tears welled up in Tang Qingyuan's eyes. "Auntie..."

Jin Aiyun raised her hand to stop her, "Young lady, I've seen too many people who cry and whine when I was young. Your act won't work on me."

Tang Qingyuan bit her lip, feeling wronged. "Auntie, I really like Yan Chen."

Tang Wenlin sighed and said to Zhou Jianguo, "Brother Zhou, we came here today to talk to you about Qingyuan and Yanchen."

After learning about what happened at the department store yesterday, although they were angry, they also saw it as an opportunity to express their feelings. Jin Aiyun believed that Qingyuan would forgive them because of her deep affection for Zhou Yanchen.

After all, Zhou Yanchen simply couldn't find anyone better under his current circumstances.

Jin Aiyun glanced at him and said, "Brother, Yan Chen and Tang Qingyuan have absolutely no connection. You should be more careful with your words. Luckily, there are no outsiders here, otherwise, if someone overheard, they would definitely misunderstand."

Tang Wenlin nodded, "Yes, sister-in-law is right."

"Sister-in-law, that brat Qingxue did something to wrong you, and we've been feeling uneasy ever since. Later, Qingyuan told me that she likes Yanchen and is willing to take care of him for the rest of her life. I'm truly happy for the two of them."

"You've all watched Qingyuan grow up. She's been well-mannered and sensible since she was little, but she met the wrong person. We were heartbroken after her divorce," Tang Wenlin said, then changed the subject. "But thankfully, they don't have any children, so they won't have any entanglements in the future. Qingyuan is also deeply in love with Yanchen, so she'll definitely treat him well in the future."
