Han Yuheng can’t take any more risks at this time. Huang Yuanfeng’s case remains unsolved. If something happened to him, his wife and children would suffer. Regarding Xiao Yiqing’s matter, he will just think about what to do in the future. As long as he insists he had nothing to do with it, no one can blame him.
After the commotion, some villagers went to Lu’s house to visit and told them what Xiao Yiqing said. Just when they thought the Lu family would question the relationship between Li Chenmo and Xiao Yiqing, Lu Jueyu entered the living room.
She sat down next to Li Chenmo, looked at everyone, and said with a smile, "Uncles and aunties, thank you for telling me and my family about this matter."
While they were confused by her words, she continued, "Ever since Xiao Yiqing was kicked out of my parents’ house, she has always held a grudge against my family, especially me. She does harbor a feeling for my husband, but this is just her wishful thinking. My husband and I love each other and we have a very good relationship.
So if anyone dares to slander my husband or spread unsubstantiated rumors, I will not be polite to them."
"I hope my uncles and aunts can help me explain it clearly to others." Lu Jueyu added with a smile that did not reach her eyes.
Everyone trembled when they heard her words and saw her cold eyes. They didn’t expect that she, who was usually quiet and weak, could show such an intimidating stance today. It seemed that she was really offended by these rumors. They glanced at Li Chenmo, who looked at Lu Jueyu with a doting and proud smile.
"Jueyu, don’t worry. I will definitely scold anyone who dares to talk nonsense." Aunt Su said with a reassuring smile.
"Thank you, Aunt Su. I made some maltose a few days ago. I heard your grandchildren loved maltose candy. You can bring some back for them later." Chen Anwen said with a smile.
When the others heard her words, their eyes lit up. They comforted Lu Jueyu and Li Chenmo and told them that they would help them remind other villagers and correct the rumor. Mother Lu glanced at Chen Anwen and used the teacup to cover her smile as she drank her tea.
Lu Jueyu understood that her eldest sister-in-law was using these snacks to bribe the villagers to support her. Although they did nothing wrong, Lu Jueyu and Li Chenmo were still no match against countless mouths. Rumor is such a frightening thing.
Chen Anwen didn’t want to see her sister-in-law return to her gloomy and depressed self again, so she chose to give some benefits to silence the villagers.
When the guests left Lu’s house, each of them was holding a small package filled with various roasted nuts, candies and cookies. Their smiles were bright, making other villagers wonder what was going on.
