Jing Shao is infertile, but his nanny is pregnant with his child.

Seeing her son's gloating expression, Jin Aiyun also became interested.

Zhou Yanxing spoke with great enthusiasm and exaggerated expressions, describing the story vividly.

Jin Aiyun never liked Tang Qingxue. Not only was she not good-looking enough for Yan Chen, but she was also petty.

She is now very glad that she did not marry Yan Chen, otherwise Yan Chen would have been ridiculed by his relatives and friends for the rest of his life.

Zhou Yanxing still felt a little regretful, "This marriage proposal has fallen through."

Lu Yan: "Not necessarily."

Zhou Yanxing looked over.

Jin Aiyun nodded. "Xiao Lu is right. Regardless of whether this Comrade Cuihua has been found or not, everyone knows that Lin Changjian has an ambiguous relationship with someone else's wife. No girl in the circle would marry him."

Zhou Yanxing: "Tang Qingxue's parents have both said that they will not arrange a marriage between their families."

"Given how inseparable Tang Qingxue and Lin Changjian seemed, it's impossible for her to marry anyone else. Besides, they kissed and touched each other in the bathroom in front of so many people. Who else could she marry if not Lin Changjian?"

This was the conservative 1970s, not the open 21st century.

After this whole mess, no one will ever marry Tang Qingxue again.

Despite Tang Qingxue's parents' firm stance today, they will likely agree to the marriage soon enough.

Zhou Yanxing can finally relax.

Either of them marrying would be a disgrace to the other person; they should just stay together and be laughed at by everyone.

"Mother!"

Lu Yaguang came back from outside, skipping and jumping, and ran into the living room to hug Lu Yan.

Lu Yan reached out and caught him. "Have you been a good girl at home with Grandma?"

Lu Yaguang nodded. "Mom, I'm a good girl. I just went to Xiaohui's house to play. Xiaohui is here."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yan saw Chu Xinyue approaching with the child in her arms.

Her eldest daughter, Liu Xiaohui, was also with her.

Jin Aiyun quickly brought her a stool and made her sit down.

"Xinyue, what brings you here today?"

Her mother-in-law, under the guise of taking care of her granddaughter, came over to eat and drink, but not only did she not help Chu Xinyue with the housework, she also made Chu Xinyue wash her own clothes.

Chu Xinyue smiled, looked at Lu Yan with gratitude in her eyes, "Comrade Lu Yan, thank you so much for last time. I've wanted to come and thank you in person for a long time, but I was afraid that my mother-in-law would cause trouble for you if she found out. She's not here today, so I came over as soon as possible."

As she spoke, Chu Xinyue took out two boxes of face cream from her pocket and placed them in Lu Yan's hands. "These were bought by my husband at Friendship Shopping Mall. I'm giving them to you."

Lu Yan put it back in her hand. "Comrade, it's just a small matter. There's no need to take it to heart. You can use the face cream; I have some."

Chu Xinyue was estimated to be around twenty-five or twenty-six years old. She had very beautiful features, but her skin was quite rough.

It's obvious that you haven't applied anything to it before.

Chu Xinyue curled her lips, "If my mother-in-law saw me wearing this, she would definitely make a scene."

Before Qin Xiaofang arrived, her husband never stopped giving her soap and face cream.

But ever since my mother-in-law came, I've seen her applying face cream morning and night, and we've had a huge argument. She's said all sorts of nasty things to me.

To avoid further trouble, she didn't apply any cream that winter.

Jin Aiyun and the others knew they were so close.

Zhou Yanchen seemed to be losing patience. "You guys chat, I'm going back to my room first."

Lu Yan was too lazy to listen to other people's complaints. She accepted the face cream and said to Chu Xinyue, "Comrade, I accept the gift. This matter is over. You don't owe me anything anymore. I'm going to give Mr. Zhou a massage now. You two chat."

As she spoke, Lu Yan went over and pushed Zhou Yanchen's wheelchair to his room for a massage.

When I finished the massage, Chu Xinyue was already gone.

Jin Aiyun told me that Commander Liu's younger brother is coming to the compound.

Lu Yan thought that Commander Liu and his wife were really easy targets; Qin Xiaofang wasn't kicked out, and now another one had come along.

Meanwhile, in an inconspicuous grove of trees in a neighboring province north of Beijing.

A tall man gave a woman a stack of ten-yuan notes and some grain coupons, and then handed her a bag full of children's old clothes.

This woman is none other than Comrade Cuihua, who caused trouble this morning.

Her husband died three years ago, leaving behind a son and a daughter.

To support her child, she had no choice but to endure the disgusting service to the disreputable men in the village.

A few days ago, someone suddenly approached her and said that as long as she performed in a play, she would receive 230 yuan and 100 jin of grain coupons.

She was skeptical, thinking it was impossible for such a good thing to happen.

But her body was already dirty, so what was she afraid of?

There's nothing she wouldn't do as long as she can raise the child.

When the other party gave her a thirty-yuan deposit, she gritted her teeth and agreed.

Cuihua counted them; there were twenty in total. Her hands trembled with excitement. She looked up at the man in front of her, her eyes glistening with tears. "Thank you."

The man looked at her, his voice carrying a warning, "If you take the money, behave yourself and keep what happened today a secret."

Cuihua suppressed her excitement, wiped away her tears, smiled, and said, "Comrade, nothing happened today. I've been staying in the village the whole time."

The man said nothing and turned to leave.

Cuihua held the money in her hand, looked around to make sure no one was there, then put the money in her pocket and walked towards the village with her old clothes in her arms.

With this money, she could live a more dignified life.

Lin Qianjin and Lin Changjian searched all afternoon, but they still couldn't find the person.

Lin Changjian's patience ran out. "Second Uncle, this woman is a fraud. I don't know her at all!"

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Qianjin kicked him to the ground, pointing at him and saying, "Flies don't land on eggs without cracks. Why would they go after you instead of someone else?"

Lin Changjian scrambled to his feet, screaming in despair, "How should I know!"

Lin Qian stepped forward and kicked him again, saying, "I'll teach you to talk back!"

Lin Qianjin kicked Lin Changjian with all his might, each kick harder than the last.

Lin Changjian covered his head with his hands, crying, "Second Uncle, stop hitting me! Stop hitting me! I'm truly innocent!"

Lin Qianjin: "I've wronged you! Wronged!"

Lin Qianjin took a deep breath, his face flushed red. "You really couldn't resist, dragging someone into the bathroom to get handsy? We're getting married in a month, are you going to die of holding it in?!"

Lin Changjian was trembling all over from the pain and couldn't utter a single word of rebuttal.

Lin Qianjin turned around. "I will continue to look for this woman. As for your matter, I will no longer concern myself with it."

After saying that, Lin Qianjin left without looking back.

Lin Changjian panicked, struggling to his feet only to collapse in pain again. "Second Uncle, Second Uncle, let me explain!"

No matter how much Lin Changjian shouted, Lin Qianjin did not turn around.

Not long after Lin Qianjin left, Lin Changjian suddenly saw several pairs of feet appear in front of him.

Lin Changjian thought Lin Qianjin had returned, so he looked up and called out "Second Uncle." However, he was met with five fierce-looking faces.

"You're Lin Changjian?"

Lin Changjian couldn't help but shudder. "Who are you?"

Lin Changjian didn't get an answer; instead, he was beaten and kicked by a group of strangers.
