Forced to marry a disabled man in the countryside? I'll repay you tenfold!

These words instantly caused an uproar among the educated youth settlement and the villagers!

"What? It's Dr. Su? That can't be!"

"It doesn't seem like it to me! Dr. Su is such a good person, how could she do something like this?"

"Exactly! How many people has Dr. Su saved? She even dug a well for us! There must be a mistake!"

"I don't believe it was Dr. Su either! She's not that kind of person!"

Xie Lanhua and Su Lingshan were dumbfounded.

They never expected that Su Wanqing had such high prestige and reputation in the 65th Regiment!

Almost no one believed she would steal money!

Su Lingshan clenched her fists so tightly her nails almost dug into her flesh. No! This is completely wrong! The Su Wanqing she wrote about should be infamous and universally despised by now! This Su Wanqing… what has she been doing all this time?! She's definitely up to something!

"Auntie, you say Dr. Su stole it, but what proof do you have?"

Xie Lanhua immediately took out the paper: "This is the evidence! The police have filed a report! Four thousand yuan went missing from the house, and they said a family member took it."

Just then, a sharp voice rang out from the edge of the crowd: "I knew it!"

Zhang Yan, who had finally escaped from the labor camp, wore a gloating expression on her face.

"No wonder she was eating braised pork and beef every day on the train! Now that she's in the countryside, she's still so extravagant, buying eggs, hundreds of kilograms of grain, and a whole hundred feet of cloth—that must have cost tens or even hundreds of yuan! Turns out she was spending stolen money!"

"From the very first glance, I knew Su Wanqing wasn't a clean thief! She was scattering handfuls of fruit candies and opening fruit cans without a second thought! What kind of good person would be so extravagant in the countryside? If she didn't steal it, where did she get so much money?!"

When Xie Lanhua and Uncle Su heard that Su Wanqing had squandered "their money" on so many nice things, they were heartbroken.

Cousin Su Lingshan's eyes lit up, and she looked at Zhang Yan with admiration. Where did this helpful wingman come from? Well said!

Aunt Wang was so angry she jumped up and down, pointing at Zhang Yan and yelling, "What nonsense are you spouting, you troublemaker! What evidence do you have to prove that Dr. Su stole the money? Just this piece of paper that only says 'money was lost'? I think you're just spewing filth from a dog's mouth!"

At this moment, Su Wanqing's mood had reached its lowest point.

With Zhou Yanshen gone, she no longer needed to deliberately appear weak and frail, but the image she had been trying to maintain was now somewhat exposed.

Without saying a word, she pushed through the crowd and walked a few steps to Zhang Yan, who was beaming with pride.

Amidst everyone's astonished gazes, Su Wanqing grabbed Zhang Yan by the collar, raised her other hand, and slapped her face from both sides!

"Slap! Slap! Slap!"

"I'm spending my own money to buy rice and cloth, it's none of your business!"

"Which eye of yours saw me steal money? You're just spewing nonsense!"

"Even labor reform couldn't reform your foul mouth, huh?"

"Looks like the punishment wasn't lenient! They need to be taught a lesson!"

The slaps were swift and brutal, leaving Zhang Yan stunned, her cheeks visibly red and swollen.

Everyone present, including Xie Lanhua, Uncle Su, and all the educated youth and villagers, gasped in shock!

This was the first time they had ever seen... such a fierce and ruthless Dr. Su!

After finishing her work, Su Wanqing shook her hands, looked at her cousin Su Lingshan, and walked over step by step.

Before she went to the countryside, she adhered to the principle of "the less trouble the better" and tried her best not to reveal her identity to avoid trouble. But now, she has not only slept with Zhou Yanshen and obtained the space, but also stockpiled a huge amount of supplies. She has also gained a foothold in the 65th Regiment and is becoming more and more powerful.

Even if something is exposed, it doesn't matter.

Startled by her imposing aura, Su Lingshan took a step back, forcing a calm expression. "Sister... what... what do you want to do..."

"Slap! Slap!"

Su Wanqing slapped Su Lingshan twice across the face, making her see stars.

"I almost forgot about you, my dear cousin." Su Wanqing squinted, grabbed Su Lingshan by the collar, and pulled her in front of her.

"Weren't you quite the smooth talker just now? Crying and complaining to the villagers that you felt sorry for me suffering in the countryside and specially found me a good marriage back in the city? Come on, now, in front of everyone, tell us properly what kind of good marriage it is?"

Su Lingshan covered her face, looking at Su Wanqing with shock and resentment. She was almost certain that the Su Wanqing in front of her was definitely not the stupid original owner she had created!

Xie Lanhua, growing anxious, interjected, "Everyone, please be the judge! We found her a bureau chief from the city! A real high-ranking official! Powerful and influential, with more money than he could ever spend, and no worries about food or clothing! They said they could bring her back to the city immediately and arrange a job for her. Where else can you find someone with these conditions?"

These words did indeed tempt some educated youth who were unaware of the inside story and longed to return to the city.

"A bureau chief in the city? That's a really good offer..."

"But isn't Dr. Su already married? And it's a military marriage..."

"But this opportunity is too rare..."

Su Wanqing sneered, her voice dripping with sarcasm: "The conditions are good! So good that the bureau chief is over forty years old, ugly and fat, and a pervert who beat two of his wives to death! His third wife just happens to be my dear sister Su Lingshan right here in front of me!"

As she spoke, she suddenly pulled hard and ripped open Su Lingshan's trouser leg and sleeve!

In an instant, the shocking bruises and scars, both old and new, on Su Lingshan's fair skin were exposed to everyone without any concealment!

A gasp of surprise erupted from the crowd!

"My God! So many injuries!"

"This...this was really from being beaten?"

"It looks painful!"

Su Wanqing continued, "They keep saying they found me a good marriage because they saw me suffering in the countryside? In reality, it was my dear sister who couldn't stand that inhuman abuse and came up with this vicious scheme! She tricked me into going back to the city to take the blame for her! To suffer in her place! If that bureau chief were really as good as they say, why isn't Su Lingshan enjoying her life in the city? Why would she travel thousands of miles to this remote, impoverished place to beg me to come back?"

Everyone gasped in surprise.

"Over forty years old? And he even beat his wife to death? Isn't this pushing Dr. Su into a fire pit?"

"How vicious! Are they even family?"

"To extricate yourself from this situation, you're pushing your cousin into a fire? Have you no conscience?!"

Su Lingshan struggled desperately, screaming, "You're talking nonsense! You're slandering me!"

Su Wanqing tightened her grip, twisting her arm. "And that four thousand yuan they lost! It was definitely stolen by an inside man! But it wasn't me who stole the money, it was their own precious son, Su Yaoguang!"
