Du Junlin must become the village head's wife of Lijia Village!
Su Nanyin's voice was not loud as she said this, but it carried an undeniable determination.
It was absolutely resounding!
Maomaochong, who had been lowering her head and silently making dumplings, stopped her movements and perked up her ears.
Li Qianfan was still rolling out the dough, his expression unchanged.
When he reached the back courtyard and pushed open the door, seeing the three women making dumplings, he finally understood why Su Nanyin had given him this old house.
This old house was essentially Su Nanyin's dowry for Du Junlin.
And by wearing casual clothes, they were telling Li Qianfan: "Because of your relationship with Junlin, we are a loving family. So, let's speak openly and honestly, without any reservations. Furthermore, Shen Yue will not interfere in this matter; we will resolve it among ourselves."
In short.
Everything Su Nanyin had done was to make Du Junlin the village head's wife of Sijiu Lijia Village!
All three women stopped making dumplings, patiently waiting for Li Qianfan's answer.
"Mom."
Li Qianfan continued to press the dough, softly saying, "Even though Du Junlin and I have resolved our past conflicts, we ultimately have fate but not destiny. I will also never let Su Ziyu down."
His answer was, as Su Nanyin had anticipated.
She gave a cold smile, "Alright, Li Qianfan, you say you and Yaoyao can be friends, and sworn siblings. Then I'll ask you a question."
Li Qianfan stopped pressing the dough and looked up, "You ask."
"Which man's female friend, or sworn sibling, would be so deceitful?"
Su Nanyin's face was filled with mockery. "When you, White-Bellied Bird, went abroad, how did you imprisoness my daughter? Back in the Suicide Forest in Japan, how did you and Yaoyao get along? Do I need to tell you again?"
Li Qianfan—
When White-Bellied Bird went abroad, Li Qianfan had plotted against Du Junlin, imprisoning her for two full days, inflicting both physical and mental trauma.
Back in the Suicide Forest, how Li Qianfan and Du Junlin had gotten along was something that did not need to be recalled.
But how did Su Nanyin know all this?
It could only be that Du Junlin had confessed to her voluntarily after returning to Lingnan!
Su Nanyin had always pretended not to know who White-Bellied Bird was, even hiding it from her husband.
She did this solely to help Du Junlin secure the position of village head's wife of Lijia Village.
"Yaoyao's body and mind have been trampled beyond recognition by you."
Su Nanyin gritted her teeth and said hatefully, "Yet, after you had your fill, you brushed yourself off and said you would treat her as a friend, as a sister. Bah to you, you scoundrel! Do you really think Su Nanyin is easy to bully, or that our family members are all fools?"
Sweat began to appear on Li Qianfan's forehead.
"And another thing!"
Su Nanyin pressed her advantage, "Who was it that quietly climbed through the window on that moonless night of murder and defiled Chongchong's purity?"
Huh?
Li Qianfan's jaw suddenly trembled.
The best mother-in-law of the century, how could she bring this up in front of Shen Zui?
Hearing her mother mention this, Shen Chongchong immediately blushed and lowered her head.
Shen Zui, after a moment of stunned silence—
Suddenly raised his hand, slammed it heavily on the small round table, and sprang to his feet, his face filled with shock. "Mom! What did you say?"
Su Nanyin glanced at Shen Maomao and sighed softly, "Maomao, in a few months, Third Sister's belly will be big. This sort of thing can't be hidden. Chongchong's purity was taken by this scoundrel."
"Mom—"
Shen Chongchong looked up with a pitiful expression, about to say something, but was rebuked by Su Nanyin, "You shut up!"
As Shen Chongchong quickly fell silent, Shen Maomao, looking extremely angry, kicked her leg.
With a thud.
Shen Chongchong, who was sitting on a small stool, immediately fell to the ground.
Shen Zui, however, said sternly, "Coward! Why didn't you tell me you were bullied by this little scoundrel!?"
"Shen Zui, what are you doing?"
Although he knew he had little reason to stop her from scolding Shen Chongchong,
Li Qianfan, seeing her be so rough with Shen Chongchong, couldn't help but spring to his feet and ask angrily.
"What am I doing?"
Shen Zui laughed with extreme anger, grabbed a few dumplings, and threw them at Li Qianfan's face. "Little scoundrel, you are clearly a married man, and Yaoyao's fiancé of 21 years! Yet you used force and defiled Chongchong. You have the audacity to ask me what I'm doing when I'm reprimanding her!?"
As Li Qianfan instinctively dodged to the side, Su Nanyin picked up a rolling pin and slammed it heavily on the cutting board.
With a bang!
Su Nanyin shouted, "All of you, sit down."
When Guanyin unleashed her might—
Whether it was Li Qianfan or Shen Zui, they could only obediently sit down.
Shen Chongchong, however, was filled with unbearable shame. She got up, covering her face with her left hand, sobbing silently, and tiptoed into the bedroom.
With a bang, she slammed the door shut.
A moment later, suppressed crying could be heard from the bedroom.
"What?"
Su Nanyin looked at Li Qianfan and asked slowly, "Li Qianfan, you defiled Chongchong, do you have any right to speak? Or is it that she was crying and begging you to defile her?"
Li Qianfan—
No matter how bad he was, he couldn't nod and say "yes."
"You used the relationship of a fiancé to restrain Third Sister for 21 whole years. Not only that, but you abandoned her on the eve of your wedding to marry another woman."
Su Nanyin had completely dropped all pretense. She grabbed Li Qianfan's ear and pulled him violently into her embrace, looking down at him. "Then you used inhumane methods to occupy Second Sister! The eldest sister cursed the second sister because of this, and you still have the nerve to get angry at her?"
Did Li Qianfan have the nerve to get angry?
No.
He truly didn't!
After being grabbed by the ear by the mother of the three sisters, he didn't even have the courage to struggle.
Who would have thought that Su Nanyin, known for her gentleness and dignity, would be so barbaric in private?
"I knew giving me her family fortune wouldn't lead to anything good."
Li Qianfan grumbled internally.
But he had to admit, she was absolutely right.
"If you dare to glare at me again, I'll reveal to the world that you defiled Second Sister; and the time you grabbed my chin, called me by my pet name, and forced me to call you brother."
Su Nanyin played her trump card.
"What?"
Shen Zui's eyes widened. He kicked Li Qianfan's butt heavily, "You little scoundrel, not only did you defile Chongchong, but you dared to offend my mother? I, I will take Yaoyao's place today and cut you down."
As Shen Zui roared, he casually picked up the cleaver from the round table.
Holy cow—
Li Qianfan saw that this was a serious problem. Su Nanyin quickly shouted, "Eldest Sister, put down the knife."
"Mom—"
Shen Zui, holding the cleaver high, was about to say something else when Su Nanyin glared, "Put it down!"
Mother was furious.
Shen Zui could only grit his teeth, drop the cleaver with a clang.
But with his anger nowhere to go, he kicked Li Qianfan's butt again, "Little scoundrel, I'll cut you down sooner or later!"
Ptooey!
Shen Zui spat at Li Qianfan, then walked to Shen Chongchong's bedroom door and kicked it open. "Chongchong, why didn't you tell me sooner that you were defiled by that little scoundrel? You useless thing, when will you learn to protect yourself?"
After the storm of reprimands, Li Qianfan finally recovered.
Su Nanyin also let go of his ear.
Li Qianfan raised his hand and rubbed his almost dislocated ear, not daring to breathe.
Now—
He had finally witnessed Su Nanyin's power!
No wonder this woman had gained such a reputation even before she met Shen Yue in her youth.
She had even managed to suppress Zhan Xiaobai, Xie Rouqing, Zhuang Chun, Ye Xiuluo, Shan Jianyaqing (Shen Yue's confidantes), and others in the beautiful Shen family to become the spokesperson for the Shen family.
Not only was she the famous Frozen Ridge Goddess in the martial world, but she also had formidable skills.
Dealing with an inexperienced young man like Li Qianfan was child's play for Su Nanyin.
However—
Li Qianfan still mustered his courage and said in a low voice, "I will never divorce Ziyu and marry Yaoyao. If you really reveal to the world that I offended you and defiled Chongchong, I will take Ziyu and leave Dongtu to inherit the family fortune in Longxu."
Su Nanyin—
Could she curse?
Li Xiao, the Lord of Longxu, was legally married to Lu Ziqi.
And Li Wujiang was universally recognized as the former village head's wife of Sijiu Lijia Village.
Furthermore, because Lu Ziqi herself was the "Empress Dowager" of the Marco family, one of the four major global powers, the future heir of Longxu, founded by Li Xiao, had long been identified as Li Wujiang's only son, Li Qianfan.
But he didn't want to inherit a "billion-dollar fortune," he just wanted to be a small village head in the country (Lijia Village), be a part-time valley master (Yang Xiao's Lieyan Valley), marry a beautiful wife, and live a life of leisure in the country.
Li Qianfan's grand ambitions—
Caused Li Xiao and others a lot of headaches: "Why the hell would you not inherit billions in fortune and choose to live a life of leisure in the country? What kind of logic is that?"
Now.
When Li Qianfan was pushed to a corner by Su Nanyin, he also unleashed his trump card.
"You, you really want to anger me to death."
Su Nanyin, who really wanted to curse, finally managed to swallow the words "the hell" but couldn't control herself and stomped her foot on Li Qianfan's lower abdomen.
Li Qianfan squatted on the ground.
What's going on?
Uh-huh!
His eldest sister-in-law wanted to cut him, and his mother-in-law was kicking and punching him. Her son-in-law was truly not an ordinary person to handle.
No wonder Lin Yifeng's elbow was turning outwards.
Li Qianfan finally found the answer.
Even more outrageous—
When Li Qianfan tried to get up, someone's delicate foot stepped directly on him.
Looking down at him from above, she said, "Du Junlin must become the village head's wife of Lijia Village."
Li Qianfan's face was full of "you can kill me now," and he met Su Nanyin's gaze, remaining silent.
"Our Yaoyao only wants the title of Lijia Village's wife."
Su Nanyin picked up the cleaver and gestured with it in her hand, saying indifferently, "I will not force you to divorce Su Ziyu. But Lijia Village is my Yaoyao's territory, and no one can touch it!"
