Cuihong thought that it would be nice if life could continue like this, at least she had enough freedom here.

As long as she doesn't go to the military camp, the family compound, or this secluded grove, she can ride in any of the army's supply vehicles. More importantly, although the market here is small, nothing requires tickets; you can buy anything secretly with just money, which is much better than back home.

Where there are many people, there is competition. In the residential area, where there are few people, the mushrooms in the forest will dry up and rot if picked too late. Unlike their hometown, where a wild vegetable is dug up before it can grow, with so many people scrambling for a bite to eat.

Although it's inconvenient to get water here, and it's far from towns, making it difficult to see a doctor or go to school, in other aspects it's really suitable for her.

The only thing she didn't expect was that even though she had tried her best to stay away from those people, someone would still try to scheme against her.

If Cuihong hadn't been tired that day and hadn't gone to rest in the space, she probably wouldn't have heard such a realistic conversation.

She didn't understand either. Usually, when she watched other people talk, she would listen, look, and guess to roughly figure out what they meant.

Why were the sounds of the outside world suddenly turned on to her once she entered the space?

The sound didn't suddenly amplify, but rather gradually increased in volume from far away until she could hear it clearly.

The sheer realism of it shocked her so much that she stood up on the spot, her face filled with disbelief!

"That's strange. Doesn't she come to the woods every day? How come we can't find her even after searching so many times?"

"Sister Hua, isn't what we're doing wrong? Or... should we just tell Wang Yang directly? He'll understand."

"Why didn't you tell him directly? Did you say you didn't want to have his children because you were afraid it would affect your position in the performing arts troupe?"

Don't you even consider how many years you've been married? Six years! If you can't have another child, such a great partner is going to be gone!

Have you forgotten how much your in-laws kept nagging you?

I've already found out that this military wife is strong, doesn't talk much, and can't hear what others are saying.

Even if you can explain it clearly, if you can't hear it clearly, misunderstand it, or use your strength in the wrong place, and you fall off her back, harming the fetus, you'll need to rest for a few days, and then find a way to terminate the pregnancy. At least Wang Yang won't blame you!

Tang Cuihong's pupils dilated instantly at these words; she hadn't realized that people could be so wicked.

The woman, still hesitant, spoke softly: "What if the child is strong and doesn't fall?"

"I didn't bring any folk remedies when I came. Don't worry, the baby will definitely fall out."

Don't worry about it. Niu Feng is Wang Yang's rival; they're both battalion commanders, but Niu Feng is younger. What you're doing indirectly helps your husband. If Niu Feng's wife has this stain on her record, it'll be difficult for him to get promoted!

"Well... that military wife is innocent. She... she's disabled. I can't live with myself doing this!"

However, the harsh voice once again brought up what she thought was a very correct theory, and she tried to persuade the military wife.

Only at the end did she realize that the owner of the harsh voice was the military wife's cousin, who had come specifically to take care of her.

But what is she doing?

Instead of taking good care of pregnant women, they teach them how to have an abortion, how to shift responsibility, and how to think of themselves.

Is this pregnant woman mentally challenged?

After six years of marriage, she finally conceived, and now they want to end her life in such a heartless way?

And what if it even implicates a kind-hearted person afterwards?

To what extent have their moral character and values ​​become distorted?

Why did she feel that her wicked cousin had impure motives?

If she hadn't taken a break and hidden away in her private space today, would we still be able to hear these conversations?

She didn't even know what the other person looked like, yet she was targeted by the perpetrator.

What kind of people are these?!

Tang Cuihong was very angry, but she still held back and didn't go out.

He didn't emerge from the space until everyone had gone far away.

However, once outside the space, her five senses seemed to be covered by a soundproof shield again, buzzing and making it difficult to hear clearly.

Could it be that her space has been upgraded?

Looking at the empty woods, Cuihong thought to herself that she should stay as far away from these military wives as possible in the future.

Wang Yang, right? She probably needs to remind Niu Feng.

Although she didn't even get to see the two sisters, it still affected her mood for the day. Usually, she would go out in the morning and not get home until three or four in the afternoon, but today, she was back before noon.

If I run into a military wife on the road, I'm too lazy to greet her. I pretend I didn't see or hear her, and I just carry my basket home, close the gate, and try to avoid seeing or hearing her.

Take out a few sea snails from the space, scoop out the snail meat, clean the sea snails and put them back in the space to be used as decorations later.

Remove the snail meat and innards, slice it, and stir-fry it with vegetables. I was too lazy to knead the dough, so I just added water and cooked the noodles directly.

After a simple meal and cleaning up the stove outside, Tang Cuihong was eating an apple when she got onto the kang (a heated brick bed) when she saw a figure jumping up and down in front of her house. She hid in a corner and looked out the window. It seemed to be two people, one tall and one short. The tall one was waving his arms, trying to get her attention, while the short one was peering through the crack in the door.

Could it be those two sisters? Goodness, they couldn't find her, so they came all the way here to look for her?

Tang Cuihong sneered, found a spot out of sight, and lay down in a spread-eagle position.

While munching on an apple, I thought about how to deal with similar situations in the future.

We can't keep pretending to be deaf and dumb every time!

Although she is deaf, her deafness is not entirely true, and she still has to consider Niu Feng's interpersonal relationships to some extent.

Fortunately, the two women didn't stay long and left after about half an hour. But unexpectedly, around five or six in the afternoon, when she was scooping water from the cistern to irrigate the vegetable garden in the yard, they came again!

She was right there in the yard this time, and the wall wasn't very high, so there was nowhere to hide.

Left with no other choice, she looked at it head-on.

The pregnant one was from the performing arts troupe, which made her easy to spot. She was slender, beautiful, and about 1.6 meters tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. When she looked at her, she greeted her with a bright smile. As expected of someone used to performing, she was truly flawless.

As for the man next to her, he was at least 1.7 meters tall. He wasn't ugly, but his features combined gave him a somewhat harsh look, just like his voice at the time, which sounded grating.

Even now, if she stands in front of her smiling and talking, she's already prejudiced and thinks this woman is absolutely wicked.

So after they chattered on and on, she merely lifted her eyelids indifferently and asked, "What is it?"

He didn't open the door, but simply stood there and gave a curt reply.

She knew very well what she looked like. Her sisters said she looked most like the old lady of the Tang family, equally mean and difficult to get along with. She was sure she could scare them away.

With their explanations, which involved both gestures and deliberate, word-by-word phrasing, she finally understood what they meant.

I want to learn to cook from her so I can take care of my younger sister who is newly pregnant.

Is this how you come to someone's door empty-handed? Are you trying to get her to cook for them so you can frame her?

Tang Cuihong refused outright: "I'm sorry, it's inconvenient. Since you're pregnant, you should go back and rest. The roads here are difficult to travel on, and no one can take responsibility if something happens!"
