Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Qin Silong couldnt sleep well that night, his mind burdened with thoughts that kept him awake. Consequently, he rose early in the morning.

After breakfast, they set off for w.a.n.g Village.

Upon arriving, Qin Silong found Su Ping and his siblings already busy digging yams in the mountains. To his surprise, even Su Qing had joined them, and his wounds had fully healed.

Meanwhile, Qin Zhenzhen remained alone at home, which was what they had discussed previously. Qin Silong knew he couldnt let the hot-tempered man accompany them; it would only complicate matters. He also decided that Su Qing, Su Ning, and Su Cheng should not go along as they would only be a hindrance. They would have to wait until everyone was in the mountains before they could address the situation and craft a plausible story.

After some time, Qin Zhenzhen and Fourth Brother hurriedly made their way to w.a.n.g Village.

As they reached the village, a chatty woman from the neighborhood warmly greeted Qin Zhenzhen and inquired, Su Bins wife, are you going back to your mothers home with your brother?

Qin Zhenzhen shook her head. No, Im not going to my mothers home. I have some business to attend to in w.a.n.g Village.

The gossiping womans curiosity piqued even more at the mention of w.a.n.g

Village. Are you going to Su Lans house in w.a.n.g Village?

As neighbors, they all knew about the marital arrangements of every family, and this chatty woman was no exception. She clearly remembered that Su Lan had married into the w.a.n.g Family, and her husband had become a Cultivated Talent, continuing his studies in the prefecture. Rumors had it that Su Lan worked diligently at home, embroidering at night and saving all the money she earned for her husband.

Su Lan continued to smile, still dreaming about becoming the wife of an officer.

Qin Zhenzhen confirmed, Yes, Fourth Brother and I are going to Su Bins elder sisters home in w.a.n.g Village.

The gossiping ladies couldnt resist the allure of gossip. One of them asked,

Youre going with your Fourth Brother? Did something happen?

This was precisely the response Qin Zhenzhen had hoped for. She began fabricating a story, Yes, something happened, and we need to go and check on it.

The gossiping ladies were eager for more details, so one of them probed, What happened? Can you tell me whats making you so anxious? Maybe I can help with some ideas.

Qin Zhenzhen gladly obliged and started sharing the story, Last night, Fourth Brother overheard that Su Bins brother-in-law had returned home, and they had a heated argument. Things escalated, and the brother-in-law even hit Su Bins sister.

The gossiping woman was taken aback, What? Are you saying youre standing up for Su Lan?

Qin Zhenzhen nodded firmly, Yes, thats true.

Im not sure how serious the situation is, and all the brothers are in the mountains, so it will take time to get them back. Thats why I want to go there first and a.s.sess the situation.

But my Fourth Brother is worried that I, being a woman, might be vulnerable, so he wants to accompany me for protection.

In any case, were on our way there now.

Please, keep this information to yourself; we dont want it spreading accidentally.

The gossiping woman a.s.sured her, Dont worry, Su Bins wife, I understand! I wont say a word!

As Qin Zhenzhen and Qin Silong walked away, the gossiping woman quickly found another woman to share the story with, and soon enough, the news spread throughout the village.

Su Bin is lucky to have such a capable wife!

Thats right. She used her dowries to benefit the Su Family and helped the entire village make money.

Now, when she heard about her elder sister being mistreated by her brother-in-law, she rushed to help immediately..
