Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 1630: Chapter 1289:

"Qingqing, why don’t you believe me? I’ve been working hard doing business to plan for our family, how can you think of me like that? Do you know that you’re going to ruin my sister-in-law and her family this way?"

Zhou Weimin’s eyes were filled with disappointment. He glanced at Su Man’s hand, which was being stepped on by Su Qing, and, disregarding the people’s talk, pulled Su Qing away, freeing Su Man’s hand.

"Sister... you really misunderstood me; there’s nothing between me and brother-in-law. Besides, there are plenty of people who look alike in this world. You can’t just blame me because brother-in-law took a photo with another woman..."

With a face swollen like a pig’s head, Su Man was crying so hard she couldn’t make a sound.

"Do you think I’m blind?" Su Qing raised the photo again: "Everyone take a good look and help me identify whether the bastard and the bitch in this photo are my husband and my sister!"

Zhou Weimin’s face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Suddenly, Su Man knelt in front of Su Qing: "Sister! I’m begging you, please don’t treat me like this. The woman in the photo is indeed not me. If you don’t believe there are people who look alike, just look at the kid named Luo Mingrui next door and Teacher Shen’s husband, Xiao Jin. They aren’t father and son, but they look alike..."

"Building a road naturally requires a good road, and the standard for a good road is quality and width. Therefore, widening the road inevitably entails using a bit of others’ farmland. When some people found out about this, they came out to make trouble. After negotiations, money was given as compensation."

Kang Li was talking about the section of road from the village entrance to the main road. However, she knew that when the main road needed to be widened, it would similarly require using some of others’ farmland, and the solution would still be "money."

"You pay for it?"

"Yes."

"You built the road, and they hold no gratitude, only looking out for their own interests?"

Luo Yanqing frowned slightly.

"The fear is not of scarcity but of inequality. If a little farmland from every household was used, perhaps everyone would feel it’s fair and have no objection. But the problem is that not all farmlands of the villagers are on that road, so the villagers whose farmlands are on that road naturally won’t agree to have their farmlands taken for no reason."

Kang Li didn’t mind, because she was the one who proactively offered to fund the road, no one demanded it of her, and besides, even if it’s the state building roads for the villagers, if it requires using some of the villagers’ farmland, compensation is needed.

After all, land is the lifeline of farmers; no matter how little is lost, farmers will feel the pain as they depend on the land to make a living.

Luo Yanqing said, "I understand what you’re saying, but it’s still a bit selfish." Saying this, he lay down beside Kang Li.

"It’s understandable."

Kang Li smiled; in fact, she hadn’t taken the matter to heart.

"I don’t know what to say."

Pulling his wife into his arms, Luo Yanqing murmured softly.

"Then don’t say anything." Kang Li laughed, rubbing her forehead against the man’s beautifully contoured chin: "Are you going back to the office tomorrow morning?"

Luo Yanqing responded, "Yes," and said, "I want to spend more time with you."

"Then leave tomorrow morning. We’ll return in the afternoon; I’ll make some pastries you love for you to take in the morning."

"Okay."

"How have the children been behaving at home this week?"

"All is well. The sister-in-law comes to the courtyard every noon to cook for Luo Mingrui and the others..."

"Didn’t Ruirui and the others go to the godmother’s place for meals?"

"No. On Monday, when they came home for lunch, the sister-in-law had already cooked the meals. In the following days, since sister-in-law instructed them, Luo Mingrui and the others didn’t trouble the godmother."

"Big thanks to sister-in-law."

"Yes. And the little brother spent evenings at our home keeping Luo Mingrui company."

"Ah? You mean the little brother stayed at our house every night this week?"

Su Qing had already dragged Su Man to the courtyard gate. She turned to glance at Wen Peng, then pulled open the door, dragging Su Man outside, and followed up with a loud shout:

"Everyone come and see, there’s a shameless slut in your courtyard, desperate for men, even targeting her brother-in-law. Shameless! Ten years ago, she played tricks to ruin my engagement; ten years later, she shamelessly ruins my family. Everyone, hurry and see how sinister this shameless bitch really is!"

It’s over! This is it! Zhou Weimin had chased after Su Qing. He hadn’t expected that he would still be a step too late despite rushing...

It happened like this: not long after Su Qing hurriedly left home with the photo she picked up, Zhou Weimin returned from outside. Not seeing Su Qing at home, he casually asked his son, who told him she had been tidying up his study, but after something happened, she grabbed her bag and left. As soon as the son finished speaking, Zhou Weimin felt a "thump" in his heart.

The result was that Zhou Weimin rushed into the study, saw the rag on the desk, then the books on the floor. His face turned pale as he picked up the books, quickly flipping through them, and not seeing the photo inside, cold sweat covered his forehead.

He hadn’t forgotten how in the past year or two, Su Qing had always been suspicious of him. Though she never directly asked him anything, he knew she suspected his private life and suspected he had a woman outside.

Perhaps she feared that asking directly would cause a rift between them, so at most, she would occasionally remind him to come home early after work or remind him to take the kids out to play on weekends.

And he actually had guessed Su Qing’s hidden meaning but didn’t take it seriously, thinking that since he hadn’t left any obvious evidence, it was just Su Qing overthinking, especially since there was no evidence to prove he had a woman outside.

Moreover, he was merely playing around outside, still feeling responsible for his family, and never thought about divorce, so he never restrained himself much.

Furthermore... he was the passive party; if it weren’t for his sister-in-law’s initiative in seeking him privately... there wouldn’t be the secret involvement between him and his sister-in-law.

"Qingqing, why don’t you believe me? I’ve been working hard doing business to plan for our family, how can you think of me like that? Do you know that you’re going to ruin my sister-in-law and her family this way?"

Zhou Weimin’s eyes were filled with disappointment. He glanced at Su Man’s hand, which was being stepped on by Su Qing, and, disregarding the people’s talk, pulled Su Qing away, freeing Su Man’s hand.

"Sister... you really misunderstood me; there’s nothing between me and the brother-in-law. Besides, there are plenty of people who look alike in this world. You can’t just blame me because the brother-in-law took a photo with another woman..."

With a face swollen like a pig’s head, Su Man was crying so hard she couldn’t make a sound.
