“Because we’ve grown up. I’m no longer the Su Wen of the past, nor the seven young girls of the Su family.” Su Wen, who usually wore a smiling face, now had a hint of contempt on her expression. With a strong tone, she said, “Also, the fire the night before yesterday wasn’t set by Tian Gang and Tian Yong.” Everyone was stunned and looked at Su Wen in bewilderment.
“It wasn’t Tian Gang and Tian Yong? Then who was it?” Chen Guihua could not help but ask.
Ma Xiulan’s expression changed as she looked at Su Wen in horror. Even Third grandma, who had experienced a lot, broke out in a cold sweat.
“What do you all think?” Su Wen looked at Chen Guihua with a smile. A funny and interesting plan suddenly appeared in her mind. After she finished speaking, she didn’t even look at the expressions of the others and turned around and followed Zhou Hengyang out.
Su Dachun, who had not stood out all this while, saw that he could not get any advantage today. If he did not say anything, he would lose all his face. “Don’t forget that your surname is Su!”
“What era is this?” Su Wen sneered and held Zhou Hengyang’s arm affectionately. “My husband can change his surname to mine, so can I.”
F*ck! Why did it sound like she was cursing?
After Su Wen left, everyone in the courtyard dispersed.
Even Third grandma left with her people. Before she left, she said, “Did you hear that? Times have changed, now Su Wen is not the Su Wen of the past. I think Su Wen is more capable than Xuewen. Don’t apply the same methods you used to deal with Xuewen to Su Wen.”
This time, Su Dachun and Ma Xiulan were truly panicked. They looked at Third grandma with a mix of fear and deep apprehension.
Su Xuewen’s matter was unknown to others, but Third grandma knew.
“I advise you to give up! You’ve controlled Xuewen for over forty years, it’s already enough. What else do you want?” Third grandma’s mind couldn’t help but think about how exceptional Su Xuewen was. Feeling guilty was simply impossible.
All along, she hadn’t given enough attention to Su Wen and her sisters. She even watched them get bullied and schemed against. Wasn’t she blinded by what happened back then?
“Are you regretting it? Do you want to speak up?” Su Dachun asked in horror.
“I didn’t speak up back then, and I won’t speak up now. However, I still have to warn you not to go too far. Regret does exist, and I do regret it.” She regretted not considering Su Wen and her sisters as part of the Su family.
Instead, she had always treated them as outsiders and ignored them. However, it was too late now. It wasn’t her turn to regret, and they didn’t need her to make amends.
“What are you talking about? What’s this regret about? What does it have to do with Big Brother?” Su Xueqiang asked curiously.
“Shut up.” Even though it was just a casual question, it provoked a furious outburst from Ma Xiulan. She got up and drove her son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren out. Eventually, only the three elders were left in the courtyard. Even Su Xueyong, who had been supporting Third grandma, was sent away.
No one knew what the three of them said in the end. By the time they were done, it was already dark. Third grandma left the house and returned home.
It was the time when every household was lit with candles and kerosene lamps, having dinner and engaging in casual conversations. However, while everyone else was in their homes, Sun Yunyun secretly sneaked out of her house and made her way to a small grove behind the house. During the day, the village kids loved to catch dragonflies and play around there.
At night, it was dark again. There were small trees and shrubs everywhere, but many couples from the village came here. Sun Yunyun knew about it too. When she washed clothes on the riverbank, she heard that many women couldn’t stand the loneliness and engaged in romantic escapades in this grove at night..
