Transmigrated as the Ex-Wife of a Heroic Man - Chapter 83

83 Three Mulberry Trees

Su Wen was happy to hear that.

It seemed that smart people were everywhere.

The real bad guys behind this were Su Xuewu and Su Xueqiang! Otherwise, how could Chen Guihua and Zhang Chunxiang have such courage?

If Su Xuewu and his brother had a conscience, would they watch their wife bully their elder brother’s daughter?

!!
It didn’t make sense.

The more Su Wen thought about it, the more she felt that Su Xuewu and Su Xueqiang were too sinister. Although she had made a comeback this time and could be considered to have cleared her name in the village, she could not let her guard down.

Who knew what other tricks those two had up their sleeves?

The center of Trinity village was an ample open space with three huge mulberry trees planted there. Two adult men would need to hug each other to encircle the tree bark. It was at least a hundred years old. That place used to be the ancestral hall of the Li, Xu, and Sun families.

The three mulberry trees represented the three families.

The movement from more than ten years ago had destroyed the ancestral Hall, but the mulberry trees remained. The villagers liked to gather here to chat and kill time. Especially in summer, it was very cool under the mulberry trees, and the gentle breeze was the best place to avoid the heat.

At this moment, many men from the village had gathered under the three mulberry trees and were chatting. Most of the women were making shoes and gossiping. Married women would even make some jokes that were too explicit.

Although it was hard work during the day, this was the most relaxing time.

The children in the village were catching dragonflies when it was getting dark. They had specifically headed for places with many bushes and had been bitten by mosquitoes.

Today, everyone’s conversation was even more exciting, and they were all talking about the Su family. Some said that Su Xuewu and Su Xueqiang had no conscience. If Su Xuewen had not been able to earn food during the famine, they would not have been able to survive. The two families had long starved to death.

Su Xuewen was dead, yet they thought of plotting against the children he had left behind.

He was too heartless.

Most people said the same thing. Everyone thought of Su Xuewen’s good deeds and missed him. They felt more and more sympathy for the seven sisters of the Su family.

Some people slapped their thighs and lamented that Chen Guihua had deceived them. They shouldn’t have believed those rumors and mistakenly thought that Su Wen was despicable.

A small group of people also felt that Su Wen was not a good person. At least, she had gone overboard with her live-in son-in-law, Zhou Hengyang. The live-in son-in-law’s status was low, but they should treat him as a person.

However, these people just whispered. Now that everyone was saying that Su Wen was good, they would end up with a reputation for bullying orphans if they didn’t say anything.

Su Wen listened from afar for a while and walked closer to greet the crowd. She had a warm smile, a generous attitude, and a sweet voice. Uncle, aunty, sister. She greeted everyone she knew.

“Wen, we all know that Chen Guihua bullied you. Don’t worry. If she dares to bully you again, we’ll teach her a lesson.”

“Right! I’ve long found Chen Guihua an eyesore. Why can she not go to the fields to earn work points?”

Su Wen was speechless. They were not speaking up for her but adding insult out of jealousy.

“I thought Zhang Chunxiang was good, but I didn’t expect her to be so vicious.”

“Tsk! If she could be better, would Su Pingfan be so bad? He is idle all day, yet she says he has a promising future.”

Su Wen was speechless. That person was jealous of Su Pingfan’s good reputation and everyone’s praise!

“To think that Zhang Chunxiang is the family member of a cadre.”

Just as everyone was chattering away, they saw the third grandma come in with Zhang Chunxiang and Chen Guihua. Su Xuewu and Su Xueqiang followed behind. Even Su Pingfan, Su Jingjing, Niuniu, and Zhuangzhuang followed.

A large group of them approached.
