Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life-Chapter 780 - 769: Nouveau Riche

"Then why did she pick Xiao Lin? Why did she return my daughter?" Zhao Yuhong screamed, her eyes red.

Ye Qiu’s eyes were filled with guilt: "Maybe it’s because Xiao Lin is easy to deceive, only she would be coaxed into sleeping at my place."

Zhao Yuhong clenched her teeth tight, yes, just because her daughter is naive, does that mean she deserves to be schemed against?

"Then why didn’t you speak out? Why didn’t you expose her?"

Ye Qiu looked embarrassed and lowered his head: "Firstly, I wasn’t very sure before, and secondly, I didn’t want Xiao Shuai to be talked about for having such an immoral mother."

"So my daughter just deserves to be the sacrificial pawn for your spouse and child?" Zhao Yuhong barely held back from slapping Ye Qiu.

"Please, Uncle Yu, Aunt Zhao, believe me, I will definitely not wrong Xiao Lin in the future, I will treat her well, I know it was my cowardice that harmed her, but at that time, I was truly stunned and never imagined that the wife I live with every day would set me up," Ye Qiu said in agony.

Seeing him like this, Zhao Yuhong couldn’t bring herself to get angry either, after all, he was a victim too. Who would have thought that his own wife would stage such a scene just to get a divorce? That he didn’t figure it out immediately is possible.

But still, she just can’t swallow this grievance, why does Cai Juhua get to live a grand life with someone else in a big city, and why does that woman from the Cai Family always have such a haughty attitude every day?

"Then you were prepared to keep this hidden forever?" Yu Chunrong asked in a serious tone.

"No," Ye Qiu lifted his head, "since I brought this up to Uncle Yu and Aunt Zhao today, I wasn’t planning to continue hiding it. But the thing is, I have no evidence, and if I go to trouble the Cai Family like this, I can’t stand my ground. So we can only imply and hint at this to others, if we talk about it enough, the villagers will start to believe, and I’ll need Aunt Zhao’s help for this, as I’m not good at interacting with those village women."

Zhao Yuhong’s eyes flickered, and she suddenly had an idea, the corner of her lips curving into a vengeful smile.

"What about Xiao Shuai? Aren’t you afraid that after Cai Juhua’s reputation is ruined, Xiao Shuai will be upset?" Yu Chunrong asked again.

Ye Qiu sighed: "I used to think hiding it would be best for Xiao Shuai, but if I don’t make things clear, it is my reputation that will suffer. Consequently, people will gossip about him anyway. When he grows up and understands things better, I will guide him gradually."

"It’s good that you’ve come to realize this," Yu Chunrong nodded.

"Oh, and I have found out something else. Cai Juhua has changed her name, now she goes by Cai Baoqin. The man she had an affair with is from the capital, and seems to be quite a high-ranking official; he even has someone driving for him. Seems like his surname is Yan, his family is quite powerful and wealthy."

Hearing Ye Qiu say this, Zhao Yuhong sneered coldly. She found a man so wealthy and yet kept it a secret from her family; it certainly seems suspicious. It’s just not known whether Liu Zhaodi, knowing her daughter is involved with such an influential and rich man, would seek him out for the sake of her precious son.

Tsk, tsk, the Cai Family would definitely not give up on a daughter who has latched onto a higher branch, and she is just waiting to watch the drama unfold. She just wonders if that high-ranking official can tolerate such unruly in-laws from the Yue Family. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

After Ye Qiu explained everything, Yu Chunrong and Zhao Yuhong forgave him. He too was a victim and had no idea that Cai Juhua was so malicious. What could they blame him for? They were going to be a family from now on, and they should band together against others.

So, the next day, Yu Chunrong went to contact people about building a house, while Zhao Yuhong went to have a chat with her good sister Hongxia, who was usually sociable. When Zhao Yuhong arrived, there were already two women at her house, chatting. Hongxia steered the conversation from Ye Qiu building a house and making furniture to Cai Juhua.

"Is what you’re saying true? Cai Juhua really changed her name to Cai Baoqin and followed another man to the capital?" One woman asked, her eyes sparkling with the thrill of gossip.

"When have I ever lied to you?" Zhao Yuhong sighed, "Ye Qiu saw it with his own eyes, saw Cai Juhua getting into a man’s car acting very intimate. I heard that the man is an official, surnamed Yan, sent from above for an inspection."

"I knew it!" Hongxia clapped her hands, suddenly realizing, "Why on earth would she tell people she’s going to the capital for work if not because she had already found a man? There are jobs everywhere, why go so far? Hey, do you think she knew that guy already?"

"I also find it strange. I live next door to Ye Qiu, often seeing her coming home in the middle of the night, sometimes even not coming home all night long."

"I know about this." Another woman hurriedly interjected, "One time, my dog started barking, I thought there was a burglar, so I came outside to take a look. It turned out to be Cai Juhua, and it was already the middle of the night. I wondered why she was out at that time."

"So, are you saying she’s been unfaithful for a long time?" Hongxia gasped in surprise, then her imagination went wild, she took Zhao Yuhong’s hand and whispered secretively, "Hey, do you think she deliberately got divorced?"

"What do you mean?" Zhao Yuhong’s heart leapt, knowing she was close to achieving her objective.

"Think about it, if Cai Juhua had long been aiming to cling to higher branches, wouldn’t she have to divorce Ye Qiu?"

"But they got divorced because Ye Qiu got drunk and..." Zhao Yuhong seemed embarrassed, looking uneasy.

"Are you being silly?" Hongxia looked at her as if she were inept, "There’s no shortage of men getting drunk in our village, how come it’s only Ye Qiu and your daughter who had an incident? Moreover, we’re not oblivious to Xiao Lin; what does she know? Tell us how Xiao Lin ended up at Ye Family’s place that day?"

"Xiao Lin doesn’t remember, I’m not too clear either, later when I asked her, she just said there was good food, and after eating her fill, she fell asleep." Zhao Yuhong said blankly.

"Oh dear, your Xiao Lin was set up!" Hongxia said indignantly.

"How so?" another woman asked eagerly, and Zhao Yuhong also quickly put on an anxious look as she watched her.

"If I’m not mistaken, that delicious food must have been given to Xiao Lin by Cai Juhua. After Xiao Lin had eaten, she coaxed her to sleep. Now think about it, was there no one else at your home at the time?" Hongxia asked Zhao Yuhong.

Zhao Yuhong nodded, "That day, Red Army and I were busy in the fields, Chunrong went to drink, and indeed, only Xiao Lin was at home."

"That’s exactly it." Hongxia slapped her thigh, "Cai Juhua planned against Xiao Lin and Ye Qiu, knowing you would all be out. The men in our village are all the same, they drink merrily, so she knew Ye Qiu would come back drunk. She settled Xiao Lin to sleep in their bed in advance, and when Ye Qiu came back, all groggy, he just wanted to lie down, how could he be aware of anything? Once both were oblivious, she called out, and then everyone knew, right? Then she had a reason for divorce."
