“It seems to be Doctor He. What’s wrong with her?”

“Have a quarrel with Doctor Chu?”

Several women exchanged gossipy glances and walked closer to He family’s home. Chu Qiao’s voice came out from the crack of the door, “Aunt He, you say yours, I eat mine. I’m still not full yet.”

“I told you not to eat. Are you deaf?”

He Jihong couldn’t stand such a provocation. Originally, she was not a good tempered person. The reason why she could keep her reputation of being virtuous these years was due to Chu Qiao’s honesty and stupidity. Otherwise, the family would have been fighting like a dog and a chicken since the beginning.

A clear loud sound startled the people outside the door. Several women were shocked and looked at each other, but their eyes were very excited.

This good stepmother had finally revealed her true vicious face. There was a big drama to watch today.

Chu Qiao looked at the broken porcelain pieces on the ground and the prawns that scattered all over, she sighed regretfully and calmly: “Aunt He, I’m only 21. I’m not old enough to marry. That Gu Jianshe who you introduced, not to mention the bad fate of his wife. He still has two children, the older one is eight years old, and the younger one is eight month. I’m sure that I won’t be able to handle it. If Aunt He dislikes me being idle at home, I can go back to my hometown in the countryside. My mother has left me one-third of an acre of farmland, and I can still fill my stomach.”

“Do you think you’re a goddess? How can you say Gu Jianshe is not good? He has a promising future and a good family background. Even if he has two children, then so what? You can learn how to take care of them slowly. I have worked so hard to make a good plan for you, but you quietly sabotage it. Chu Yuanzhi, I won’t care about your daughter’s affairs in the future. She can do whatever she likes!”

He Jihong’s voice lowered a little, but it was still much louder than usual. All the women listening to gossip outside were so excited that they finally caught He Jihong’s shortcomings.

Hmph, what kind of a good stepmother? Wasn’t she just pretending? Now her true face had finally been exposed.

Forcing a 21 years old stepdaughter to marry a widower with two children, how could you say he was good? He Jihong just didn’t have a good heart. The man she arranged for her daughter had a very good-looking appearance and a good family background, but she arranged her stepdaughter to be a stepmother.

“Her heart is too cruel. That girl Chu Qiao has always been honest. Such a person who can’t make a fart out of three barbs1 has been forced to resist. This shows how bad the man called Gu Jianshe is.”

Or that she is an introvert and seldom talks.

“There are a few stepmothers who are good. He Jihong is just pretending and speaking nicely, but who knows how she treats Chu Qiao in the back!”

“I have already seen He Jihong’s face early. You can see how Chu Qiao is dressed up. She looks fat and big in those clothes, she looked like a big auntie from behind. As for her daughter Xu Bilian, she makes new clothes every few days. The treatment of the two daughters is very different. I used to say that He Jihong is two faced, malicious and deceitful, but you still don’t believe me.”

“Do you know, Chu Qiao just suffered from heatstroke a few days ago. I heard it was Xu Bilian who did it. She made Chu Qiao run back and forth for seven or eight times at the hottest two or three o’clock. From the machine tool plant to our family building, it takes five or six miles to go back and forth. And it’s just to get a piece of clothing for Xu Bilian. As a result, Chu Qiao suffered from heatstroke. Fortunately, Aunt Wang saw it, otherwise Chu Qiao would have died.”

“It’s not unusual for Xu Bilian to do such things. When she was not married, she had always bullied Chu Qiao. Alas, Chu Qiao is also a poor child. Neither father nor mother can be relied on. She is simple minded, so it’s really hard for her to just beg for food from her stepmother!”

……

Everyone sighed and sympathized with Chu Qiao, but that was all. They couldn’t stand up for Chu Qiao. It was impossible for them to stand up for Chu Qiao. He Jihong had a good family background, and they couldn’t afford to offend her.
