Chapter 422: Chapter 290
I just pasted it wrong, I’ll change it.

“I still say the sa thing, I and Jiang Xue, there’s nothing going on between us.” Liao Hui looked at Zhou Xiangping with a determined expression, “Although I don’t know what’s written in the letter you have, I hope you’ll give the right to see the letter, and the right to verify its content.”
“Heh…” Zhou Xiangping looked at him with disappointnt, “Is this because you have a guilty conscience, or are you trying to countercharge ?”
Chapter 291
“Xiao Si, how many years have we known each other?” Liao Hui looked at Zhou Xiangping with rare seriousness.
“I don’t want to answer that question.” Zhou Xiangping turned her head away, unwilling to make eye contact with Liao Hui.
“Why don’t you want to look at ? You’re also not certain about your own suspicions, are you? You’re afraid that if you look at , you’ll go soft, right?” Liao Hui sighed softly, “I admit, I’m a bit indecisive, but I definitely don’t have the character to do sothing and not own up to it, what do you think?”
Zhou Xiangping pursed her lips and remained silent.
“Let see what the letter in my pocket is about.” Liao Hui reached out his hand, “With all the work stuff and family issues recently, my mind’s really in a ss.
If you still have that little bit of trust in , then give the letter, rest assured, I won’t destroy the evidence, nor will I swallow it, and I definitely won’t play any tricks.
I just want to see what’s written, then think it over, or maybe find so clues. Xiao Si, in the presence of the whole family, what underhand moves could I possibly make, right?”
Zhou Mikang looked at Zhou Xiangping: “Give it to him.”
Zhou Xiangping’s hand twitched, and she awkwardly twisted her head even more.
Knowing that she agreed to let him take the letter, Liao Hui snatched the letter from her hand, read a line, and his forehead bulged with veins: “Xiao Si, when did you find this letter?”
“Hmph!”
His answer ca from a hum through the nose.
“Xiao Si, this letter isn’t written by !”
“Hmph!”
Liao Hui had no choice but to stand beside Zhou Xiangping, with the letter spread out in front of her, “This handwriting, at first glance, indeed looks quite like mine, but if you look closely, is this how I write next to ‘zou’? And next to ‘ren shu xin’, and here… These small details, the other person hasn’t imitated correctly, and besides, if you look even more carefully, you’ll find that this person purposely tried to change so of his habits, but hasn’t done so completely.
Look at this character, it looks a bit like mine, right? And here… Xiao Si, if after seeing all this, you still don’t believe , then I’m truly disappointed in you.”
“What can disappointnt do?” Zhou Xiangping glanced at him, “Tell , what can disappointnt do?”
“It can’t do anything.” Knowing that his wife wasn’t really holding it against him, Liao Hui quickly tried to appease her with a smile, “You say how you want to punish , I misspoke.”
Zhou Xiangping looked at him coldly: “Have you figured out who wrote it?”
“Not quite sure.”
“What do you an not quite sure? Is it that you hope it wasn’t her who did it? Having been classmates for so many years, you can’t be that unsure, can you?” Zhou Xiangping glared at him, “You even let her put the letter in your trouser pocket, Liao Hui, how are you going to explain this?”
“Ah?” Liao Hui frowned and began to recall hard, “I did et her once recently, but she wasn’t looking for , she was looking for our commune director.
Then, we had lunch together, the three of us, and at that ti, she sat with the director, and I sat opposite them. So thinking about it, she really didn’t have the chance to put the letter on .
Xiao Si, you know how careless I am, I never check my pockets, otherwise, you wouldn’t have found this, right?”
“Are you trying to tell that she knows you better than I do?” Zhou Xiangping snorted, “When she ca to , she told that I didn’t understand you well enough, that I wasn’t good to you, and now with what’s happening in my family, I’m even more unworthy of you.
Now, you’re also telling that I don’t understand you well enough, and only she really knows you. Indeed, it turns out you two really are a perfect match. Liao Hui, do you know why I didn’t bring this up when I was at your house?
It’s not because I was playing gas with you, nor was I intentionally waiting to settle the score when you ca to my house, but because I was forced by your mother. That day, when she ca to talk to at ho, it was with your mother’s consent.
Your mother even deliberately took grandpa and grandma out for a walk, leaving her and alone at ho. Every ti in front of you and grandpa and grandma, your mother is so considerate of .”
But, whenever you all were not at ho, she was not the sa person, you just asked how many years we’ve known each other, Liao Hui, I’ve known your mother since I’ve known you. But it was not until today that I truly realized what kind of person your mother is.
In the past, your mom treated the sa in front of others as she did behind their backs, but ever since our family encountered this situation, she’s beco a different person. My pain is unspeakable. If I were to say anything bad about her in your house, your whole family would not believe .
Maybe they would even think it’s the fault of being locked away that’s making purposely pick a quarrel. Therefore, I can only wait until I get back to my own ho to speak out. At the very least, I won’t be locked up again.
Try being locked up for a month soday and see how that feels. You should know what kind of temperant I have. To lock up for a month is basically to drive insane!
Do you know how much I was hoping you would sneak out? Not to never return, but to take the chance when everyone is not at ho to see how my family mbers are actually doing.
Every ti I begged you, you ca up with all kinds of moral excuses to stop from leaving. It’s as if I could blow up the Earth the mont I go out. Am I really that unreasonable in your eyes?”…
The more she talked, the more agitated she beca. Near the end, Zhou Xiangping was crying and speaking, with tears and snot undesirably wiping onto Liao Hui.
Originally, the Zhou family, who were very dissatisfied with the Liao family, couldn’t help but smile bitterly at this scene.
However, for Liao Hui’s mother, Cai Hongying to do such a thing was totally beyond their expectations. After so many years of interaction, they really did not know that Cai Hongying was such a hypocritical person.
“I’m going to find her.” Lin Yanqiu said angrily as she stomped towards the door.
Zhou Jingping grabbed her, “Let’s not rush into this. We need to think it through before we take action. If you go and start arguing with her now, how will Xiao Xiang and Little Hui get along afterward?”
“But she is really overstepping her bounds, isn’t she?” Lin Yanqiu’s frown was tight, “I believe that there is nothing we’ve done to wrong the Liao family.
This ti, they locked up Xiao Xiang, and I didn’t plan to say anything, since they had their family’s interests in mind. Besides, with Xiao Xiang’s character, it’s better for her to stay at ho than to worry and get flustered with us.
But what is the aning of her doing this? If she really thought Jiang Xue was better, she should have married Jiang Xue in the first place. Why bother marrying Xiao Xiang from our family?”
“Mom, this is not her fault. Initially, she preferred Jiang Xue, but it was Liao Hui who liked ,” Zhou Xiangping said with a sudden slap on the forehead. “Now I understand why, whenever Jiang Xue went to find Liao Hui, mother-in-law would deliberately ntion it in front of . I always thought she was standing up for . I was so grateful to her, but it turns out she was intentionally letting know to make jealous, to cause trouble between Liao Hui and , and then we would divorce, and she could marry off her favored daughter-in-law…”
Before Zhou Xiangping could finish, Liao Hui ran out like the wind.
“Gone to settle the account with his mother,” Zhou Jiping shrugged and looked at the younger sister, “Xiao Xiang, what do you plan to do?”
“What do you an what do I plan to do?” Zhou Xiangping looked bewildered, “Does my sister an what should I do?”
“You and Liao Hui, what are you planning to do about it?” Zhou Jiping sighed, “If you love Liao Hui and want to live a good life with him, no matter how terrible his mother is, you will have to endure.
If you don’t love him anymore… well, let’s not discuss that hypothesis. The fact that you can co back here and make this fuss shows that you have no intention of leaving him.
Therefore, I warn you, let your mother-in-law save so face later, act a bit more generous. That way, Liao Hui will be grateful to you. Silly girl, you have to gradually win over Liao Hui’s heart for yourself, understand?”
“Not really.” Zhou Xiangping looked at Zhou Mikang, “Third Brother, do you understand?”
“Why should I understand?” Zhou Mikang replied with a frown.
“You don’t understand either?” Zhou Xiangping started to laugh, “Third Brother is the most clueless in this regard. If Third Brother understands and I don’t, then it really ans this is complicated.”
Zhou Mikang snorted and turned to the kitchen.
“Wow, Third Brother is going to the kitchen?” Zhou Xiangping’s eyes widened, “See what I an? That’s true love. A man who never steps half a foot into the kitchen actually goes there. Wow, if soday Liao Hui loves like that, I’ll be content.”
Everyone looked at her, speechless, not sure what to say. Who was the one crying pathetically just a mont ago? And who was being bullied by the mother-in-law? Yet, in the blink of an eye, how had everything turned around like that?
Not to ntion the n, even the won present, Lin Yanqiu, Old Madam Zhou, and Zhou Jiping, admitted that they couldn’t understand her thoughts.
Zhou Xiangping smiled sheepishly, “Actually, I’m not that heartbroken. During the ti they kept locked up, Liao Hui initially took leave to stay with . Later on, when he was suspended from work, he was with all the ti.
His grandfather doesn’t let go out, he agrees with him on the surface, but he always tries various ways to cheer up afterward. However, what his mother did was true.
In the limited tis that he wasn’t there, his mother really did those things. It’s clear that she really intended to divorce and remarry soone she liked better, soone who could help the Liao family. If I don’t teach her a lesson, she really will take for a fool, huh!”
Who says Zhou Xiangping is straightforward?! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welco to co to Qidian (qidian) to vote for recomndation tickets and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please go to m.qidian to read.)
