Cheng Su scolded Sister-in-law Hong without mercy before pushing her son back home.

As soon as her figure disappeared, Sister-in-law Hong pointed angrily in her direction and cursed, "Look at her arrogance, who here isn’t older than her? So young and daring to lecture others! Is having some money really something to brag about?"

Everyone mused silently, it’s just a reprimand, and besides, we are older than her, but we can’t actually match her arrogance, her husband is successful, holds a higher rank than everyone else’s!

And yet, why didn’t you refute her earlier, instead of waiting until she left?

Someone wanted to avoid further conflict and tried to mediate, "Alright, alright, Sister-in-law Qi makes a good point, respect the deceased, let’s not talk anymore to avoid feeling uncomfortable. By the way, have you heard? Around the corner, the child from the bun store was kidnapped..."

Cheng Su carried Qi Xiaoqi upstairs, talking to her son while walking, "In the future, don’t emulate those people who are idle, only capable of gossiping and speaking coldly behind others’ backs."

She continued, "Since ancient times, it’s been easy to hit a person when they’re down, but hard to offer help in a snowstorm, this is what it means. Someone’s husband just died, and they’re still gossiping, with not a hint of sympathy. And yet, they used to laugh and chat with Sister-in-law Gao, you see, it’s only when something happens that you see people’s true faces."

As she spoke, her eyes became slightly wet, and she sniffled.

She felt sad.

A small hand climbed up to the corner of her eye, making a couple of sounds.

Cheng Su looked and saw Qi Xiaoqi was staring at her, with a look in his eyes that might even be concerned for his mother.

"Good boy, you know how to care for Mommy." Cheng Su gave a kiss on his little bald head.

When the child reached a hundred days old, Mother Cheng insisted on shaving his fetal hair, so now his head was smooth and bald.

Upon returning home, Mother Cheng was already busy cooking, while the two kids from next door sat watching TV. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

"That Sister-in-law Song really has a thick skin, always having them come to our house to watch TV, and the electricity bill keeps skyrocketing," Mother Cheng whispered pettily to Cheng Su.

Cheng Su smiled, ever since the oil theft incident, Sister-in-law Song might have been chastised by Song Cheng, and ended up buying a new can of oil and pressed to give it to Chunhua’s Household. This really pained Sister-in-law Song, but she acted like nothing happened afterward, proceeding as usual, indifferent to whether people disliked her.

The twins greeted her in unison calling her aunt, and then glued their eyes to the TV.

Thankfully, the two kids still showed some manners.

Qi Taiguo returned shortly after and, seeing Song Cheng’s children there, said nothing, simply sat down on the sofa, which made the twins announce they were heading home.

"Look at you, without the slightest smile, just a stern face scaring the kids away!" Cheng Su joked as she handed him a glass of water.

"The matter with Gao Linbing is settled, all records purged, all information destroyed." Qi Taiguo rubbed his forehead and said, from now on, there’s no more Gao Linbing, nor anything related to him, it’s all gone.

Cheng Su also sat down and said, "This was expected, wasn’t it? No one knows whether he transmitted any secrets to Japan."

"I think, back in his hometown, only the true parents and relatives of Gao Linbing would be monitored." Qi Taiguo added.

Cheng Su pressed his shoulder and sighed, a spy, this status is too sensitive, surely the government would take it seriously.

"Let him remain in your heart." Cheng Su said.
