Chapter 419

Bai Xiuxiu was also thinking that she needed to ensure the persistent members of Old Wang’s family would disappear from her sight completely this time.

Every member of Old Wang’s family was someone who had ruined her and Wang Qinghe’s life in her eyes.

So no matter what, she was determined to make these people pay.

She would make them vanish completely from her and her family's lives.

Bai Xiuxiu propped her chin on her hand and continued working, her mind occupied with planning.

Very soon, she had settled on Wang Qingqi.

She would start with Wang Qingqi...

Zhou Jiaojiao seemed to have been involved with Old Wang’s family from the start. She seemed to be obsessed with marrying Wang Qingqi, which was why she hadn’t divorced him despite how terrible his family was.

Thinking of this, Bai Xiuxiu smiled.

By noon, Zhou Jiaojiao had already subtly mentioned to quite a few people that Wang Qinghe and Bai Xiuxiu were unfilial and had deliberately harmed their family.

When Bai Xiuxiu left the office with Wang Qiong, their colleagues' looks had changed.

Outside the office, Wang Qiong was also worried about her. “Xiuxiu, are you alright? I think your sister-in-law seems to be deliberately targeting you. The moment she saw you, it was like a dog eyeing a bone.

Her gaze was intense and hostile.

Did you notice? Just now, many of our colleagues were looking at you differently.

It seems like Little Chen has said something to them.

If this keeps up, it’ll only get worse. Over time, people might start getting fed up with you.

By then, our office won’t be as harmonious as it is now.”

Wang Qiong didn’t want Bai Xiuxiu to become the second Sister Zhang.

Sister Zhang, an honest person, unfortunately ran into troublemakers Lin Yan and Lu Fang.

Though Xiuxiu wasn’t exactly honest, harmful rumors can be damaging. If everyone started to dislike her...

Wang Qiong’s concerns were understood by Bai Xiuxiu.

She also knew that Zhou Jiaojiao was doing this on purpose.

However, Zhou Jiaojiao was mistaken about one thing. Zhou Jiaojiao thought that she and Qinghe were afraid of the He family discovering the truth, but in reality, they weren’t afraid at all.

No matter what, He Youde had to be punished; he needed to pay the price.

It was just that she and Qinghe hoped He Youde would lose everything before facing punishment.

“Xiuxiu, say something.” Wang Qiong was getting anxious.

“Don’t worry, Little Qiong, I know what to do. As for this Zhou Jiaojiao...” Bai Xiuxiu sneered.

If she hadn’t come here, or if she had stayed silent, that would have been one thing. But since she had started spreading rumors, Bai Xiuxiu wouldn’t hold back anymore.

“I’m relieved that you know what to do. I was really worried about you. Never mind, I won’t bring up this unpleasant matter. Let’s go to the mall first.” Wang Qiong wasn’t one to spoil the fun.

She was in high spirits as she took Bai Xiuxiu to the department store.

At lunchtime, Zhou Jiaojiao relished the attention of a crowd eagerly awaiting her words.

She looked troubled. “Oh come on, stop staring at me like that. Even if you keep looking at me, I can’t say anything bad about her, can I? She’s my eldest sister-in-law after all. How can I badmouth her?

My father-in-law was framed by them and sent to jail. Before he went to prison, he kept saying not to blame them.

My mother-in-law… my mother-in-law was also framed by my eldest sister-in-law. My mother-in-law kindly helped her take care of the children, but she accused her of planning to kidnap the children with human traffickers.

They believed her and had my mother-in-law arrested.”

Zhou Jiaojiao broke down in tears as she spoke.

Her tears made the others frown.

“This Bai Xiuxiu is really out of line.”

“Yeah, I really can’t tell. Usually, she seems like a nice person.”

“Nice? You’ve got to be kidding me. She once helped handle a family dispute. The old lady was being supported by her son. But Bai Xiuxiu claimed the house belonged to the old lady and chased the son away, letting the old lady’s daughter and grandson move in.

The son and his family were kicked out.

The family is still making a fuss about it. In the end, somehow, the old lady was convinced to blame everything on her son.

She even said it was her own choice.

Can you believe how messed up that is?”

“I know about this too.”

The people chimed in, and Zhou Jiaojiao wanted to laugh.

But she kept a helpless expression on her face. “Don’t blame my big sister-in-law. She’s actually not a bad person. Although she doesn’t like to work, she’s really not bad.

Oh, and whatever I said, please don’t tell her.

She’s my family, and I really don’t want you all to hate her.

She’s finally made it to the provincial capital, and if she loses her job, she…

No, if something happens to her, she’ll blame me.

I wouldn’t be able to live with myself.”

Zhou Jiaojiao looked like a frightened little rabbit.

It made everyone’s protective instincts kick in.

“Don’t worry. If she really can’t stay here, it’ll be her own fault.”

The whole noon, these people chatted and laughed with Zhou Jiaojiao.

By the time Bai Xiuxiu and Wang Qiong returned, they were still talking.

When they saw the two of them, their faces twisted into mocking sneers.

“What’s with that attitude?” Wang Qiong, who wasn’t afraid of causing a scene, was furious.

Zhou Jiaojiao looked terrified and nervously approached Bai Xiuxiu, whispering, "Big sister..."

Bai Xiuxiu gave her a smile and asked, "Jiaojiao, is your third sister-in-law still around?"

Zhou Jiaojiao's expression changed and she said, "Shut up."

Bai Xiuxiu continued, "Your third sister-in-law was instructed by you to push me into the water to drown me, and in the end, she went to prison for you. Why do you look so shocked when I bring it up?

Have you already forgotten about it so soon?

This whole thing in our village was a huge scandal.

Now, if we go back to the village, it seems like every household can describe what happened back then."

Bai Xiuxiu's eyes were filled with mockery.

Everyone else was also stunned.

Zhou Jiaojiao said dryly, "You're talking nonsense, I didn't..."

"Whether you did or not, the evidence is all over the village. By the way, can your Old Wang’s family even show their faces in the village anymore?

Looks like your family’s too scared to come back to the village after that kidnapping mess, huh?

By the way, where's my money?

My husband slaved away for your Old Wang’s family. Didn’t we sign an agreement when we split the family assets?

Isn’t it time for you to pay up this month?"

Bai Xiuxiu's series of questions made Zhou Jiaojiao's face look extremely awful.

For a moment, she felt like there were needles pricking her back, and it seemed like everyone was mocking her.

How could Bai Xiuxiu have the nerve to say those things?

Why couldn’t she just be mute?

Zhou Jiaojiao's eyes were full of tears, wishing she could strangle Bai Xiuxiu.

"Stop wronging me, Big sister. How can you still be wronging the family now? The family has been ruined by you and Big brother. Our parents are in prison, and the others have all divided the household."

"How is it our fault? All these things happened after you married into the family. My husband and I were doing just fine at home all these years, and... the one who secretly took my husband away and has been mistreating him.

How can you still call them parents?

Zhou Jiaojiao, who gave you the courage?

To come to my job and spread lies about me?"

As Bai Xiuxiu spoke, she slapped her.
