Country Love: Xie Dajiao, 37, is pregnant!

Seeing Xie Guangkun's appearance, Wang Laoqi couldn't help but laugh out loud. He quickly walked forward, patted Lin Chen's shoulder heavily, and looked at him with admiration. The more he looked at Lin Chen, the more he felt that Lin Chen's character, demeanor, and appearance were all top-notch, far superior to the young people in the village.

"Xiao Chen! You're really something! Only someone with your sharp tongue could stab him in the back and keep that old scoundrel in check! You've helped me get revenge today! How about this, come to Uncle Qi's house for dinner tonight! Let's have a good drink!"

Lin Chen smiled:

"Seventh Uncle, you're too kind. We're all from the same village, so let's be reasonable. If he dares to cause trouble again, just tell me, and I'll take care of it for you. I'm good at dealing with that old bastard!"

"Haha, you're something else. Here's what I've got: I still have some work to finish. Come over for dinner in a bit, and I'll have your auntie cook something nice."

"Okay, Uncle Qi, you go ahead with your work, I'll be there soon."

Xie Dajiao looked at Lin Chen with eyes full of undisguised affection and favoritism, her face flushed slightly.

From the bottom of my heart, I felt that Lin Chen was not only good-looking, rich and capable, but also had a character and demeanor that surpassed all the men in the village.

She reached out and gently patted Lin Chen's arm:

"Xiao Chen, you're amazing! You speak and act with reason and evidence, you don't cause trouble but you're not afraid of trouble either. This is the first time I've ever seen Xie Guangkun so speechless and forced to run away in frustration. You're really something."

Lin Chen looked at her and smiled:

"To deal with someone like Xie Guangkun, arguing with him won't work. You have to find his biggest weakness and attack him hard. Isn't he most concerned about his son's reputation and future? I'll just poke at his sore spot."

The few villagers who had been watching the commotion dispersed one by one, whispering among themselves along the way. They all said that not only was the Lin family's son successful and wealthy, but his eloquence was also exceptional; he had silenced Xie Guangkun with just a few words.

Wang Laoqi felt incredibly relieved. He led the sheep away slowly, but before he had gone far, the sound of a car engine suddenly came from afar, followed by the village children shouting:

"Xie Yongqiang is back! College student Xie Yongqiang has come home!"

The village entrance had barely quieted down for two seconds before it became lively again.

Xie Guangkun, who had just been humiliated and forced to run away, stopped immediately upon hearing the noise as he reached the big willow tree at the village entrance.

His eyes lit up instantly, and he completely disregarded the humiliation he had just suffered at Lin Chen's hands, running and stumbling towards the end of the village road.

The village entrance was unusually lively at this moment. Liu Yishui's car drove into the village, and Xie Yongqiang and Wang Xiaomeng got out. Several village children and idle villagers followed behind the car, forming a large crowd.

Not far away, Wang Laoqi had just walked a dozen steps with his sheep, intending to go home, when he heard a sound behind him and subconsciously stopped and looked back.

"Yongqiang! Son! You're finally back! Your dad was being bullied to death!"

Xie Guangkun shouted at the top of his lungs, his words coming out fast and urgent, his hair flying everywhere. He looked like a pitiful old man, completely different from his arrogant self just now.

Xie Yongqiang, carrying a shoulder bag and exuding a youthful, scholarly air, wearing glasses, looked at the travel-worn and anxious Xie Guangkun and quickly asked:

"Dad, what's wrong? Who bullied you?"

Xie Guangkun grabbed Xie Yongqiang's arm, turned his head and pointed directly in the direction of the grocery store, spitting as he embellished his story:

"Who else could it be! Lin Chen, that guy from the Lin family who came back! That guy, his swearing is absolutely awful!"

"That sheep ate the dishes I specially saved for you to welcome you, so it's not unreasonable for me to make him pay fifty yuan, right? He stingily only gave me ten! When I said a few words, Lin Chen jumped in to help him curse me, and even tried to hit me!"

As he spoke, Xie Guangkun deliberately rolled up his sleeves, looking as if he had suffered a great injustice, and tried to play the victim to Xie Yongqiang:

"Look, look! He almost hit me! If I hadn't run fast and dodged in time, I would have been hospitalized today!"

Liu Yishui got out of the driver's seat, looked at Xie Guangkun's exaggerated appearance, and couldn't help but laugh and tease him:

"Wow, Uncle Guangkun, there are people in this village who dare to bully you and go head-to-head with you? That's really rare. I'd like to see for myself."

Xie Guangkun raised an eyebrow, glanced at Liu Yishui, snorted coldly, and looked indignant:

"No one from our village dares to mess with me. That Lin Chen came back from Shenzhen! Just because he's young and made some dirty money outside, he thinks he's all that and acts like a bully in the village!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Wang Xiaomeng walked over. She was wearing a clean pink short-sleeved shirt, and her jet-black hair was tied into a neat ponytail. She had a smile on her face, but when she looked up, her eyes met Wang Laoqi, who was leading a sheep not far away, and her smile instantly froze on her face.

Wang Laoqi was watching the commotion when he spotted his daughter getting out of the car.

His face darkened instantly, filled with displeasure. Without uttering a word, he led the sheep over with a dark expression and stood directly in front of Wang Xiaomeng, staring at her with a gloomy gaze.

Wang Xiaomeng felt flustered under her father's gaze and lowered her head awkwardly.

At this moment, Wang Xiaomeng felt both panicked and confused.

To cover up her embarrassment and to make a good impression on her future father-in-law, Xie Guangkun, she immediately looked away and turned to walk towards Lin Chen, who was standing at the entrance of the grocery store not far away.

She adopted a self-righteous demeanor, her tone carrying a hint of questioning and dissatisfaction:

"Brother Lin Chen, I just heard from Uncle Guang Kun that you bullied him? And you even helped others say that Uncle Guang Kun extorted money? How could you do such a thing?"

Lin Chen was chatting quietly with Xie Dajiao when he heard this mindless question, so he slowly turned his head around.

His gaze swept casually over Wang Xiaomeng from head to toe, his eyes filled with helplessness and disdain, as if he were looking at a fool. He had no patience for even a perfunctory answer and asked directly:

"Are you an idiot?"

Those few words instantly silenced the noisy village entrance.

Wang Xiaomeng froze on the spot, her eyes wide open, her mouth agape, unable to close for a long time, her face full of disbelief.

She had always been well-behaved and sensible since childhood, and no one had ever scolded her so bluntly and mercilessly before. She was completely stunned.

The villagers and children who had been watching the commotion all fell silent. They looked at each other, no one daring to utter a sound, and all eyes were on the two of them.

Xie Dajiao, standing beside him, was also startled. She quickly reached out and gently tugged at Lin Chen's arm, lowering her voice to advise him:

"Xiao Chen, how can you talk like that! Speak properly, don't swear!"

Lin Chen chuckled, crossed his arms, his eyes cold as he stared directly at Wang Xiaomeng's face, and said:

"What? Did I say something wrong?"

"You didn't see a single thing in this whole farce, you don't know a single detail of what happened, and you only heard Xie Guangkun's side of the story, yet you dared to come over and stand there with your hands on your hips questioning me. Who do you think you are... who do you think you are, accusing me of bullying an old person!"

"You believe everything others say without any independent judgment. Where's your brain? Are you just trying to make your head look fuller? You get easily swayed by a few words and jump to any side. It's like someone's putting on a show and you're eager to fire it. Isn't that ridiculous?"

"Besides, why don't you ask whose sheep ate his vegetables? You're really funny to come and question me like this."

These words snapped Wang Xiaomeng back to her senses. Her cheeks flushed red, then turned pale, then bluish-white. She felt ashamed, angry, and wronged. Her eyes instantly welled up with tears, and her voice trembled with sobs.

"How could you start swearing like that! That's so rude!"
