Chapter 435: Ruined, This Woman's Jealousy Sickness Has Struck Again

~4 min read 775 words

Although Ding Surong was very curious about what heaven-angering and people-reviling act she had committed to warrant the eldest daughter of the Qi family chasing her from the city, she dared not ask.

Just as her mind wandered elsewhere, she heard Qi Shufang say, "As I instructed before, make her reputation ruined and her name disgraced at the fastest speed."

Although Ding Surong sympathized with Liu Chuxue, she was a self-interested person: "I understand."

Qi Shufang took a piece of paper from the bag she carried: "This has the phone number of my office; call me if anything happens."

Recalling what Ding Surong had said earlier, that woman had actually entered the rolling mill by her own ability, so it seemed she did have some skills.

But who made her provoke herself?

Whether she can hold this job remains to be seen; what does it matter if she sits in an office?

Qi Shufang gave Ding Surong a few more instructions before rising to prepare to leave.

Seeing the person out the main gate and watching them get into the car, she said, "Drive slowly."

After watching the car drive far away, she turned around to prepare to go inside.

But she did not expect to be stopped by Liu Jiandong: "Ding Zhiqing, these are mushrooms dried at home; my mother asked me to give some to you to stew in a dish."

Ding Surong did not reach out to take them, feeling that this person had ill intentions; although they had indeed interacted before over the house issue, what did this mean now: "Comrade Liu, no need. I picked quite a few mushrooms on the mountain a few days ago, enough for myself."

Liu Jiandong wanted to say something more, but Ding Surong turned and entered her own small courtyard, closing the door behind her.

Anyway, work would end in less than an hour; she had already asked leave from the squad leader, so naturally she did not want to return to the fields.

She had to think about how to carry out the task Qi Shufang arranged without anyone discovering it.

On the other side, the Liu family was now extremely lively.

When Grandpa Fu saw Liu Chuxue, he finally understood why his own grandson, that big block of ice, insisted on marrying no one but her.

This young lady's gaze was clear and upright, her gestures and movements generous and proper, and most importantly, she was beautiful.

By now, everything had been moved into the house, and the Fu family members had been invited into the main hall.

Mother Fu, with a face full of joy, pulled Liu Chuxue over and said to Mother Liu, "Mother-in-law, you have raised your daughter well."

Mother Liu, for the first time, did not be modest today: "This child strives on her own."

Hearing this, Aunt Fu, who was standing nearby, felt that Mother Liu truly did not know what modesty was: "Indeed she strives; she found a good husband herself. Fu Yan Cheng is the pride of our Fu family; although we cannot say he is the most successful, he has reached the position of deputy regiment commander at such a young age, so his future is needless to mention."

These words sounded like praise, yet they made people feel uncomfortable.

Before the Liu family could react, they heard her continue: "But it is good this way; besides a few children still in school, everyone in Yan Cheng's family has a job; marrying Yan Cheng is truly a great fortune."

Upon these words, a brief silence fell in the room.

Uncle Fu, who had been exchanging pleasantries with Father Liu, upon hearing his wife's words, had the first thought: Ruined, this woman's jealousy sickness has struck again.

He quickly rose and walked over, tugging his wife's sleeve: "Peilin, today is the younger sister-in-law's main stage; you had better say less."

Aunt Fu also realized at this moment that what she said was indeed somewhat inappropriate: "I apologize; I was so happy that I spoke a few words too many."

Mother Liu thought that since today was a special day, it was better to let things pass, after all, what she said was not wrong.

But Xia Qiu, sitting nearby, could not help but speak up: "Yan Cheng's conditions are indeed good; otherwise, my younger sister would not have taken a liking to him. But to put it another way, my younger sister is indeed very excellent; otherwise, Yan Cheng would not have ignored the girls in the city and come to our countryside to propose to my younger sister. Don't you think so, Yan Cheng?"
