Cheng Su walked out and saw Qi Fenglian sitting in the bathroom, lost in thought, so she went over. When Qi Fenglian saw her coming, she quickly wiped away her tears.
"Still crying?" Cheng Su chuckled and also pulled up a small stool to sit down.
Qi Fenglian glanced over at the main room and quietly complained, "I won’t comnt on what others say, but she’s my own aunt, doesn’t she know my difficulties? And yet she says such hurtful things, who is she trying to embarrass?"
"She’s a paragon of virtue, arguing with her is just making trouble for yourself," Cheng Su replied in a low voice.
"I didn’t expect my own aunt to say such things, making it seem like I’ve been such a burden to my family, like I’m a great sinner!" Qi Fenglian said indignantly.
Cheng Su sighed, "She doesn’t care if you’re her niece; she just judges others by her own moral standards. Otherwise, our cousin-in-law wouldn’t have made such a scandal with Deng Weixia!"
Qi Fenglian paused.
"You make a fair point, she is indeed too overbearing!" Qi Fenglian sighed.
"So don’t dwell on it. Can you change soone’s personality? If she thinks she’s right, then she’s right, it’s also due to a lack of knowledge and insight, and inherently traditional!" Cheng Su said.
Qi Fenglian sighed deeply and said, "She’s also a pitiable person. Do you think her plan will succeed? I’m already struggling to remarry with two kids in tow, but at least it’s sowhat justified, as it’s common enough. But her plan for Weiqiu to remarry while taking her along, what family would be willing to do that? Even if soone is willing, it’d be soone who’s lost a wife or has several kids of his own, and marrying into such a family would only cause distress!"
"You really see things clearly, big sister!" Cheng Su genuinely praised, "Since your divorce, your perspective has broadened quite a bit, and you see more clearly than before!"
Qi Fenglian felt a bit embarrassed, saying, "I only understand a bit more from what I see at the store. Watching people coming and going and hearing so much, naturally, I’ve co to understand more!"
Cheng Su nodded and said, "From what you’re saying, it is indeed difficult. From my point of view, if Deng Weixia doesn’t co back to take responsibility, Weiqiu may be delayed for a long ti, and marrying the kind of person you ntioned would just be a waste; it would be better not to marry at all!"
"Weixia, what a bastard!" Qi Fenglian cursed angrily.
Isn’t that so.
Cheng Su sighed deeply along with her.
"Big sister, have you noticed that sothing’s off with Fengping?" Cheng Su lowered her voice as she thought of Qi Fengping.
"What’s off?" Qi Fenglian didn’t think much of it.
Cheng Su hesitated a bit, considering the seriousness of the matter, she said, "Big sister, I heard so gossip, please don’t think I’m stirring things up!"
"Oh, co on, what is it?"
Cheng Su first recounted what Xiao Yun had told her, and then shared the gossip she overheard yesterday, noting how Qi Fengping’s appetite lately seed unusually large!
At first, Qi Fenglian couldn’t quite understand, but once it all ca together, she understood Cheng Su’s implication.
"This is impossible!" Qi Fenglian loudly refuted.
Cheng Su hurriedly covered her mouth in fright, saying, "Big sister, are you trying to let the whole world know?"
Qi Fenglian made muffled sounds and, pulling her hand away, said urgently, "This, how is this possible, she’s just a child, how could she dare!"
"Big sister, at eighteen or nineteen, marrying is normal," Cheng Su said calmly, "I’m not saying she’s being indiscreet, just worried she might get deceived!"
Qi Fenglian was dumbfounded.
If Cheng Su’s suspicion were true, then the Qi family was in for a huge change!
