I was married off to a disabled hero in lieu of marriage; my in-laws doted on me and I aspired to gr

Looking outside the courtyard, it was indeed Han Dan.

Qiaoqiao immediately looked at Zhou Wenhui. They already knew that Han Dan and Lin Jie had divorced after Xiaowei and Haohao fought last time.

Since you're already divorced, how could you be seducing a married man?

Gu Tong'an and Yao Xing had already run out of the courtyard to question Han Dan about why he was standing at someone else's door and making false accusations.

Xiaoqi and Yao Hongbing looked at each other with the attitude of watching gossip.

Zhou Wenhui and Qiaoqiao were caught in a dilemma. If they went to mediate the fight, they were afraid it would embarrass Han Dan and Lin Jie. So they could only stand in the yard and watch how things developed.

"Zhang Man, you shameless bastard, come out here. Everyone, listen to this: last year, my husband and I bumped into Zhang Man in the snow. She kept saying she didn't want us to take responsibility, but what happened?"

Look, this new bicycle in the yard was bought by my husband, the house was renovated with his money, and he even encouraged my husband to divorce me. These two scoundrels have gotten together.

"Everyone, I'm innocent! My husband beat me at home, I couldn't live like this anymore, so I had to get a divorce. It turns out, it was all Zhang Man's scheme!"

Han Dan became more and more excited as she spoke; she felt no sadness, only the excitement of her counterattack.

The neighbors looked at each other in bewilderment. No wonder the Zhang family, who were so poor they were practically unknown, suddenly had their house repaired and Zhang Li joined the army. It was all thanks to the man Zhang Man seduced.

No one bothered to verify the facts; the neighbors simply enjoyed watching any romantic affair between a man and a woman.

"Zhang Man isn't that kind of person, is she? She's a very obedient child."

Some neighbors were skeptical, but others retorted, "Look at her new house, it must have cost at least several hundred yuan, right? Her mother's always on medication, where would she get the money to repair a house?"

"Serving in the army is so difficult, why did her brother get to go?"

"They've lost all sense of shame for money."

"You're still a teacher, don't corrupt the children."

"We need to report this to the school. How can someone like that be a teacher?"

...The discussions continued, and Han Dan was very satisfied. She had spent the whole night thinking about it at home yesterday and finally cleverly figured out the source of her tragic fate.

Initially, she didn't want a divorce, but Lin Jie stayed out all night and cut off her financial support, forcing her to divorce him.

If she hadn't divorced, she wouldn't have gotten involved with Wang Hongqi, nor would she have been bullied by him.

Han Dan firmly believes that Zhang Man ruined her marriage, and if you don't let me have a good time, I will make sure you are disgraced.

Han Dan went to the Second Primary School to inquire and found out Zhang Man's address, then came over with great fanfare.

The door to Zhang Man's house opened, and Lin Jie led Zhang Man out by the hand.

Zhang Man's eyes were red and swollen; she had clearly been crying.

"Look, it's that despicable couple, one a hero, the other a teacher, yet they committed such vile acts. My life is miserable; they schemed against me. My peaceful days are over, my husband and children are gone, and my son is crying at home for his mother..."

Han Dan's every word was highly persuasive, drawing immense sympathy from her neighbors.

"Han Dan, haven't you made enough of a scene? My relationship with Zhang Man started after our divorce," Lin Jie shouted sternly.

"Really? Lin Jie, even before we were divorced, you often brought food to that bitch's mother, didn't you? The younger one is bitch, and the older one is bitch too." Han Dan said with great arrogance.

The neighbors started discussing again: "Yes, I've seen this man with one hand delivering food to Aunt Zhang several times."

"Aunt Zhang even bragged that it was a dish from Jufeng Restaurant, costing tens of yuan per serving. Tsk tsk, I would never eat such shameless food, even if you killed me."

"When someone is so poor they're desperate, they'll crawl into bed with any piece of meat they can get their hands on. What shame do they have?"

The rumors were getting out of control, so Lin Jie shouted, "Aunties and grandmothers, don't believe this crazy woman's rumors! Zhang Man and I are completely innocent!"

"Whether it's a rumor or not, the public's eyes are discerning. I only divorced this scumbag in June. He came to deliver food to my mother-in-law and fix up my mother-in-law's house, but that didn't happen in June."

The neighbors started talking about it again.

"Yes, the house renovation is in March."

"I often bring meals to Aunt Zhang after the New Year."

Yao Xing and Gu Tong'an had originally gone to break up the fight, but after hearing Han Dan's words, they stood aside and didn't move.

They had all met Lin Jie before and always thought he was a relative of the Zhang family, there to help them. They never expected that they had this kind of relationship.

Especially Yao Xing, who had seen Lin Jie eat at the Zhang family's house many times, made it hard not to believe it.

Gu Tong'an was in pain. He liked Zhang Man, but because he was unemployed, he never dared to confess his feelings.

The strong woman in my heart who faced life with a smile actually committed adultery.

Gu Tong'an's longing for love was shattered in an instant.

He gave a bitter laugh. What she wanted was something he might not be able to give her within ten years. What kind of pure love is there in this world?

Dirty water was poured out bucket after bucket, and Zhang Man broke her silence.

She walked coldly up to Han Dan and asked, "Lin Jie is your man? Have you two consummated your marriage?"

In short, the onlookers quieted down.

"What, you want to know about what happened between me and Lin Jie in bed? You're shameless to the extreme."

After Han Dan finished speaking, Zhang Man burst into laughter, a somewhat sinister laugh: "Han Dan, don't you understand why Lin Jie wants to divorce you? Because he has absolutely no interest in you. You mentioned a son, fine, let me ask you, is that son yours? Lin Jie feels disgusted just looking at you, how could he have a child with you?"

Yes, we got together before you were divorced. He's the only real man I have. You two are just a marriage certificate; what else is there besides that?

Zhang Man sneered; the cruel war between the two women had begun.

"What did you say? You seduced someone else's man and even developed a sense of morality? Lin Jie was injured on the battlefield and he's impotent, what does that have to do with me?" Han Dan roared.

Zhang Man touched her belly and said, "No, Lin Jie is fine, the problem is with you. Han Dan, look, we're pregnant, four months along, he's moving. Tell me, even a dog wouldn't be interested in you, let alone a man, right?"

Gu Tong'an closed her eyes in pain. How could such a beautiful woman say such hurtful things?

"Yes, I'm not charming enough to compare to your seductive charm; you only know how to seduce men."

Han Dan was furious. Lin Jie had been unable to perform, so how come he could perform now?

"Yeah, who told Lin Jie to take the bait? We're getting married soon. My Section Chief Lin got a two-story house, and he used his connections to get my brother into the army. Han Dan, I know you're angry, I know you're jealous, but what can you do? You can't arouse Lin Jie's interest, you deserve to be a discarded wife, you deserve to be unwanted by any man."

Zhang Man's words became increasingly harsh, so Han Dan grabbed Zhang Man's hair and slapped her across the face, saying, "I'll beat you to death, you bitch..."

The two women were fighting. Lin Jie went to break them up, but his anger had made them unrecognizable. How could he possibly separate them?
