1970s: A hot-tempered wife who accompanied a soldier to the military compound and made a fortune.

Chapter 91 What are their intentions in fabricating something out of nothing?
Seeing that things were not going well for the eldest son's family, they wanted to back out, but it was too late.

Liu Chuxue looked at the three families that Aunt Cuihong had invited: "Uncle Liangzi, Uncle Baogui, Grandpa Shuanzhu, tell me, where was I the night after my father's accident?"

Uncle Shuanzhu spoke first: "Shan Gang's family, I told you before that Xia Qiu and Chu Xue came to my house to borrow money that night. As their aunt, you shouldn't have said those things that would ruin Xue's reputation. But not only did you not listen, you also cursed me for being a busybody."

Then Liangzi's wife, who had followed, also spoke up: "My mother injured her back a few days ago and went back to her parents' home. She only heard about those rumors when she came back today. Ge Xiulan, are you out of your mind? How can an elder spread rumors about her own niece?"
That day, Xiaqiu and Chuxue not only went to Uncle Shuanzi's house to borrow money, but also to my house. My whole family can testify to that.

Seeing the villagers' gazes change, Ge Xiulan said angrily, "You've always been on good terms with the second branch of the family, so naturally you'll speak up for her."

At this moment, Liu Baogui's grandson squeezed through the crowd and said, "Aunt Liangzi wasn't lying. Sister Chuxue came to my house that day and gave me a piece of malt candy."

After saying that, he made a face at Ge Xiulan.

Ge Xiulan blurted out, "You were bribed to speak up for her with just a piece of malt candy. I didn't expect you to be so shrewd, Chuxue."

Liu Laoqi, standing in the crowd, couldn't listen any longer: "If their words can't be trusted, then what about mine?"

The crowd quickly made way for him.

Liu Shangang was now completely frightened and hurriedly stepped forward: "Seventh Uncle, it's all because the younger generation in the family is ignorant. We've troubled you to make this trip. Let's talk about it at home."

Old Liu didn't give him any face and flung his hand away: "That day, those mother and daughters didn't get back to the hospital until very late to raise money for Shanliang to go to the city for leg treatment. I even greeted them. How dare your wife make up something out of nothing? What are you up to?"

Ge Xiulan reacted as if she'd seen a ghost when she saw Uncle Liu Qi, instinctively trying to back away. She knew how much prestige Uncle Liu Qi held in the village.

Not only because his son is now a company-level officer and his daughter is married to a military officer, but more importantly, because Liu Laoqi has been on the battlefield, killed Japanese soldiers, and is upright and righteous, no one doubts what he says.

At this moment, the villagers who were working in the distance also gathered around, all cautiously asking what had happened. The faces of everyone in the Liu family's main branch were ashen.

Liu Jianqiang, the eldest son of the main branch who was unaware of the situation, stepped forward: "Chuxue, isn't there some misunderstanding here?"

Chu Xue's eyes were full of mockery: "The rumors in the village have been circulating for more than a day or two. Why didn't my eldest cousin stand up and say this earlier? Why are you pretending to be a good person now?"

Hearing Chu Xue's sharp retort, Liu's eldest granddaughter-in-law, Qu Aihua, objected, "Chu Xue, what did your cousin say that made you retort like that?"

Chu Xue didn't want to worry Liu's father, who was waiting for news at home, so she turned to look at Ge Xiulan, who was hiding behind Liu Shangang: "Aunt, you know what you did to me. The reason I didn't settle accounts with you before was because treating my father's leg was the most important thing, and also because family scandals should not be aired in public."

But you, instead of trying once, want to try again. Don't blame me for disregarding family ties; after all, you have no family ties with me whatsoever.

The more Old Man Liu listened to this, the more uneasy he felt. He knew that the eldest son's family might be hiding something from them, and he couldn't let things continue like this: "Chuxue, you also said that family scandals should not be aired in public. Let's talk about it when we get home."

Chu Xue is not the original owner of this body. Trying to use the aura of an elder to suppress her is wishful thinking.
