Chapter 141 The person spreading rumors about Shu Ying in the compound was her.

"Luckily you told us beforehand, otherwise we would have been implicated. She so openly hired a nanny, so there's no housework to do at home. I don't know what bad luck Chief Xie had in his past life. How could such a cautious person find a wife like this? Wanying, was Shuying this extravagant before she got married?"

Seeing the two people's attitude towards Shu Ying, Xie Wanying felt much more satisfied.

As long as everyone here isolates Shu Ying, all her efforts will not have been in vain.

That was exactly the effect she wanted to achieve; all that she said that day hadn't been in vain.

She talked herself hoarse, and then drank two large glasses of water after she got back.

“Our two families are old friends, so this is not her fault. I remember that her grandmother was very particular about food, clothing and daily necessities. Growing up in such an environment, it is inevitable that she would become a little arrogant and domineering. There are dozens of maids in her family to do chores, and I heard that there was also a housekeeper before.”

Xie Wanying seemed to be making excuses for Shu Ying, but every word she said was actually provocative.

“My sister-in-law is actually a pitiful person. If she had been born into an ordinary family, she definitely wouldn’t have this kind of personality. Although she didn’t have much of a relationship with my brother before, now that she has a child, didn’t she come to my brother’s house first thing? It’s their business as a couple, and as an outsider, I shouldn’t say too much. As long as the young couple can live their lives well, let them do whatever they want.”

Zhao Lijuan was somewhat exasperated. She swatted the mosquitoes swarming around her with one hand and then pulled Xie Wanying down to sit.

"I think you're too easy to bully. Where can you find a sister-in-law with such a good personality like you? If I had a sister-in-law as nice as you when I was in the countryside, I could have asked for the bride price however I wanted."

Li Chunyan nodded in agreement, and thinking back to when she met Shu Ying yesterday, she felt a wave of disdain as Shu Ying still smelled of perfume.

"She doesn't actually want to live a good life with Chief Xie. She's clearly in trouble and feels she can't raise two children on her own, so she's thought of you all again. And you, you've taken her in without holding a grudge, while she's still acting like a spoiled princess! Wanying, you should stand up for yourself. You're all from the Xie family. If you keep being so kind, you'll be bullied to death."

Xie Wanying sat next to her with tears in her eyes, looking as if she had suffered a great injustice.

She sobbed twice, seemingly unwilling to say anything more.

"What can I do? She's just a married daughter. People say that a married daughter is like water spilled from a bowl. As long as Shuying can take good care of my parents, I won't ask for anything else. Now, because of her, my brother has become estranged from me and always feels that I'm going to harm him. My life is really difficult. I'm like a clay Buddha now. I can't even take care of myself, so how can I take care of anyone else?"

Zhao Lijuan rolled her eyes, feeling even more that Shu Ying had gone too far.

"This capitalist's daughter has learned nothing but bullying tactics. I've already warned our neighbors not to get too close to her. If you associate with such a wicked capitalist too much, your thinking will be corrupted."

"What are you all doing sneaking around here? Turns out you're talking badly about our family. Didn't your parents teach you not to talk badly about others behind their backs when you were little? Be careful, you'll get your comeuppance tonight."

The small group of people were still figuring out how to frame Shu Ying when Song Zhaodi suddenly appeared, startling them.

In fact, when Xie Wanying saw this familiar face, she felt even more guilty and wanted to run away.

Song Zhaodi had noticed that the people coming and going these past few days were looking at their yard with strange eyes.

Having lived in the countryside for so many years, she naturally knew how these people operated. Either they had heard something, or they had a misunderstanding about Shu Ying or Li Qingqing.

She's been wandering around this area for several days now, and she's finally caught up with the source.

Zhao Lijuan kept patting her heart with one hand: "Can't you have some manners? Are you trying to scare us to death? We're talking here, and you come here to eavesdrop. Who's going to get retribution? God has eyes. Even if there really is retribution, it won't fall on ordinary people like us."

Song Zhaodi sneered, pointing a finger at Zhao Lijuan's nose: "Spreading rumors behind people's backs, you still have the nerve? If I hadn't caught you red-handed today, you wouldn't have admitted it so easily, would you? If you have the guts, just say what you have to say to my face. It just makes you look like you have a long tongue. My two sisters are doing just fine. I think you're just jealous because you can't have a good life. People like you will never have a good life."

Li Chunyan slammed her fan heavily on the stone table: "What you're saying makes no sense. We're just standing up for you. You're being treated like a slave and you don't even realize it. I've been watching you do all the big and small things in this house these past few days, haven't I? You've been sold out and you're still helping count the money. I think that's all you've got."

Give me back my girl!

She treats others like family, but they may not treat her like family!

Song Zhaodi rolled up her sleeves, looking ready to fight the two men.

“Who are you calling a slave? You don’t do any work or cook at home? I’m willing to be my sister’s maid, even if it’s just a real nanny, I still get paid every month. You work all day long, and you don’t necessarily get more than me.”

Li Chunyan's fingers trembled with anger: "You, you are simply hopelessly stupid. It's true that there's always a reason why someone is pitiful. We're here to speak up for you, and you turn around and accuse us."

She narrowed her eyes, spitting as she spoke: "No wonder you're so disregarded. Even in this day and age, your name is still Zhaodi. You should go back and find a younger brother for your family. Your mother is at an age where she might still be able to have another child. The next one might be as stupid as a pig, but still smarter than you."

Xie Wanying was stunned. She asked in disbelief, "Zhao Di? What Zhao Di?"

Zhao Lijuan's fan was almost falling apart from being shaken so much: "It's her name, Song Zhaodi. In this day and age, she still has such an old-fashioned name. Isn't that ridiculous?"

Xie Wanying took a deep breath, staggered back a step, and almost fell to the ground.

It really was Song Zhaodi!

The person who should never have come here has come.
