I transmigrated to the 1970s and became the female lead's vicious stepsister.

"Mother, what brings you here?"

Deputy Regiment Commander Lü was heartbroken when he heard that Xu Meili had rejected his marriage proposal.

But he wanted to try again, so he borrowed a bottle of face cream from his comrade's wife. It was brand new and he didn't want to use it, so he took it.

He genuinely wanted to marry Xu Meili; he couldn't forget her after seeing her at the party.

He couldn't believe it when he found out she was three years older than him.

No wonder Fu Linchuan's wife is so beautiful; she inherited it from her mother.

Xu Meili is also quite beautiful, and she easily attracts the attention of the opposite sex.

Although she is 41 years old, she is still very young, like someone in their thirties. Xu Meili suffered a lot in the Su family, but later she married into the Zhao family and became a textile worker through her own efforts. She no longer had to endure the wind and sun and had a stable job, which made things much better. In addition, she was born with a good constitution.

During this time, Su Lingwu took care of Xu Meili's health and prepared beauty pills for her. She was comfortable and had no worries while eating and staying at her daughter's place, so her condition naturally improved.

The kind that stands out immediately in a crowd.

At that time, women rarely dressed up. It was mostly city girls who were more fashionable and would apply face cream.

Therefore, Xu Meili stood out among a group of middle-aged women.

Deputy Regiment Commander Lü's wife passed away three years ago, and many people have introduced him to potential partners, but none of them have worked out.

It wasn't until Commander Fu brought his wife and mother-in-law to join him at the military base that the mother and daughter became the center of attention in the family compound, and people often heard about them from others.

Some say the mother and daughter are spendthrifts, others say they are vixens, and still others envy their good looks.

He had been wondering just how beautiful she could be.

But on the night of the performance, he finally saw them; the mother and daughter stood out in the crowd and were spotted at a glance.

He wasn't the only one watching; everyone in the compound was secretly watching.

Rumors have been circulating these past few days that Xu Meili has been divorced twice, and that she only went to live with her daughter in the military because she had nowhere else to go. He felt that his opportunity had come.

So I told my family about this idea.

Unexpectedly, his mother had the same idea. Deputy Regiment Commander Lü was unaware of this, and his mother's thoughts were different from his.

"If I hadn't come, I would have seen you be so pathetic. You haven't even done anything yet, and you've already bought things for others."

The old lady of the Lü family stared intently at Xu Meili and the face cream in her hand.

Her son didn't even mention buying her a bottle, but he gave it to Xu Meili. What a vixen!

With a loud bang, Su Lingwu kicked the door.

"Who are you talking about!"

"I...I'm talking about your mother. She got my son to buy her things. She refused this morning, so why is she accepting them now!"

"I didn't accept it. Your son just stuffed it into my hand. I hadn't even had a chance to return it to him before you started yelling."

Xu Meili returned the items directly to the man in front of her.

She hadn't even realized what was happening before the man gave her the item.

Su Lingwu glanced at the Lü family mother and son, "Who cares about your rubbish? You can go inside and see how many skincare products my mother has on her table. Why would my mother care about your little things?"

The face cream that Su Lingwu bought for Xu Meili before was still not finished. When Su Lingwu went to the capital with Fu Linchuan, she bought a lot more, and naturally Xu Meili also bought some. This time, the Fu family sent Su Lingwu skin care products again, twice as many. Xu Meili had several kinds of face cream alone, and she couldn't possibly use them all.

"Will your Lü family ever stop? Old Mrs. Zhou has already made our family's decision clear: we disagree. What are you two doing, mother and son, harassing us like this? Believe me or not, I'll report you to the military leadership!"

"Who cares about a divorced woman like her? It's her honor that my son is interested in her. How dare she look down on our family!"

Speaking of this, Old Mrs. Lü gets angry. Her son is the deputy regimental commander, earning more than a hundred yuan a month, yet Xu Meili disagrees.

"mother!"

"What did you say?!"

When Deputy Regiment Commander Lü heard his mother's words, he was so angry that he felt dizzy.

"Old lady, did you eat shit? Your mouth stinks!"

"My mother is a blessed person, and she won't marry into an unfortunate family. As for your family, let whoever marries into your family do as they please, but don't come near us."

"Deputy Regiment Commander Lü, I won't talk to your mother. I can't understand her. I'm afraid if we keep arguing, I'll lose my temper and hit her."

"I don't want this to ruin your relationship with Rinchuan. To be honest, it's impossible!"

"Don't even mention that my mother has no intention of remarrying. Even if she did, I would never agree to your family's marriage. Just because of your mother, I would absolutely not agree."

"Don't hold any more hope. Don't bother my mom anymore. Stay away from her. Even if you see her in the future, pretend you didn't. Go out of your way. I don't want my mom to be misunderstood or talked about behind her back. You don't need to ask anyone to mediate. You'll never have a chance."

Su Lingwu has blocked all of Deputy Commander Lü's escape routes; she will absolutely not agree to this.

She believed her mother wouldn't be so foolish as to jump into the wolf's den of the Lü family right after escaping from the Zhao family's den.

Upon hearing this, Deputy Regiment Commander Lü swayed.

"Deputy Regiment Commander Lü, what my daughter said also reflects my opinion; there's no possibility between us."

Xu Meili's gaze towards Deputy Regiment Commander Lü was devoid of any warmth.

Deputy Regiment Commander Lü hadn't expected things to turn out this way. Whenever his mother got involved, nothing ended well. Oh well, he was definitely better off single and shouldn't cause trouble for anyone else.

"I'm sorry for the trouble I've caused you. I won't bother you again in the future."

"Mom, you should go home first. I still have things to take care of."

Seeing her son's forlorn figure, Old Mrs. Lü wanted to say something, but couldn't utter a sound. "I..."

Grandma Lü glared at Su Lingwu and her daughter before stumbling home.

Su Lingwu and Xu Meili closed the door and went inside.

"That Su Lingtang is a complete troublemaker!"

If Su Lingtang hadn't been talking nonsense, none of this would have happened.

She, on the other hand, stayed in the hospital to rest and recover during her pregnancy, and nothing happened to her.

"Mom, we can't let this anger go unresolved!"

Su Lingwu went directly to the hospital to find Gu Chenzhou and Su Lingtang.

These past few days, Gu Chenzhou has been taking care of Su Lingtang at the hospital.

Su Lingtang went to the restroom, leaving only Gu Chenzhou in the ward.

"You...how did you get here?"

Gu Chenzhou was stunned when he saw Su Lingwu.

"Hmph, this brings me to your good wife. She went to the compound and told everyone about my family, saying that my mother had been divorced twice. Now the whole compound is talking about my mother."

"Does she have only one mouth? Doesn't she have any sense of propriety? What does my family's business have to do with her? She came to the compound to stir up trouble and has caused my family a lot of trouble. I've put up with her for so long. If it weren't for the fact that she's pregnant, I would have dealt with her long ago!"

Gu Chenzhou clenched his fists. "I'm...I'm sorry, I'll have her apologize to you and your aunt."

"If apologies were enough, what would be the point of laws and police!"

"Gu Chenzhou, I'm warning you, if you can't control your wife's mouth, don't blame me. If she dares to talk nonsense again, believe me, I'll give her a dose of a 'mute' medicine so she'll never be able to speak again!"

"I……"

Gu Chenzhou reached out his hand, but stopped there.

"Su Lingwu, what are you doing?"
