Chapter 37 Righting Wrongs

"Su Zhiqing, this matter ends here. I called you over today because I already know you did this! Denying it is useless. You've delayed our Red River Village's important affairs, and I will remember this." The village head's words froze Su Xiaoxiao in place.

"She clearly engaged in speculation and profiteering, why are you still helping her?" Su Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth.

"Is speculation and profiteering something that can lead to such trouble? Have you read your brain into a bad state?" the village head sneered, "In my village, if I say she didn't, she didn't!"

"If you're smart, you'll obediently be a zhiqing. If you cause more trouble and I find out it's you, don't blame me for being unkind." The village head glanced at Su Xiaoxiao, and seeing the resentment on her face, he smiled disdainfully.

An ignorant little girl, not knowing the immensity of heaven and earth, daring to act up in front of him, her methods were still too immature.

As she left the village head's house, Su Xiaoxiao glared back fiercely, gnashing her teeth.

Why did they all have to help Fu Wenwen? It had been like this since childhood. Even when both she and Fu Wenwen hadn't done their homework, the teacher would only scold her.

This time, Fu Wenwen was clearly in the wrong. She sold her clothes, so why were they still helping her! Why were they all helping her!

Su Xiaoxiao slowly walked towards the zhiqing point. From afar, she saw a figure standing in front of the point, seemingly waiting for her. The moment Su Xiaoxiao saw Liu Zihua, tears she could no longer hold back streamed down her face. "Zihua Ge..."

"Xiaoxiao, what's wrong? Why are you crying so sadly? Who bullied you? I heard the village head called you over, what happened?" Liu Zihua looked at Su Xiaoxiao, gently wiping away her tears, and asked.

Su Xiaoxiao threw herself into Liu Zihua's arms, crying and telling him about the village head's threats. Of course, she omitted the part about writing the举报信. To Liu Zihua's ears, it sounded like Fu Wenwen had engaged in speculation and profiteering, but the village head hadn't blamed Fu Wenwen. Instead, he had blamed Su Xiaoxiao for the matter.

"The village head is too much, I'll go reason with him." Liu Zihua said angrily. Su Xiaoxiao quickly stopped him. "Zihua Ge, don't go, you can't fight against them."

"This is Red River Village. Fu Wenwen is now a part of Red River Village, and they will all help her. Don't go!" Su Xiaoxiao cried.

How could she let Liu Zihua go? If he went, it would expose her. All she wanted was for Liu Zihua to pity her. "Zihua Ge, don't be angry, I'm fine."

"How can you be fine? It's true that Fu Wenwen married Lin Feng, but there is still justice in this world. She did such a thing, even if it wasn't speculation and profiteering, it was illegal resale! It's one thing for them to help her cover it up, but why should they frame you!" Liu Zihua said indignantly.

"Zihua Ge, I just want you to care about me. That's enough." Su Xiaoxiao looked at Liu Zihua, touched. "Fu Wenwen has always felt that I stole you from her. Perhaps because of this..."

"Nonsense, I never liked her. She was the one who kept pestering me. I've always liked only you!" Liu Zihua looked at Su Xiaoxiao, his heart aching as he wiped away her tears, pitying this poor girl who had been neglected by her family since childhood.

Since childhood, Fu Wenwen had everything she wanted, but Su Xiaoxiao always picked up what Fu Wenwen didn't want. Liu Zihua couldn't stand it. He felt Fu Wenwen was doing it on purpose, with her condescending attitude, saying she was lending things to Su Xiaoxiao to use, which was clearly an insult.
