Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 988: Chapter 982 – Who is Su’E?_1 Chapter 988: Chapter 982 – Who is Su’E?_1 However, Qin Gouzi knew well that Qin Lei was not one to mess with. If he found out how Gouzi was interested in her daughter, who knows how he would take it. While others may not know how scary Qin Lei could be, Qin Gouzi did. He hadn’t forgotten how Qin Lei blocked the woman he had slept with from coming over, even though she had only come to propose. Despite finally giving in to his desires and sleeping with her, he knew that if it hadn’t been for Qin Lei’s arrangements, he would never have done so.

Qin Gouzi shifted his thoughts; Qin Xue was not like Li Zhaodi, she wouldn’t tolerate such indiscretions. Considering this, he looked at Mrs. Li.

“Cuifen, you’ve got it all wrong. Qin Xue didn’t do anything to provoke you, yet you lashed out at her with such harsh words.” As Qin Gouzi looked at Mrs. Li, he found her complexion much fairer than most other women. But when compared to Qin Xue, it was like comparing heaven and earth, with Mrs. Li being earth, and Qin Xue being heaven. Yet, he thought to himself, if he had the money, he could also bed Mrs. Li. He was actually curious about what she had that attracted so many men in the village.

“What? Qin Gouzi, you fancy her?” Mrs. Li exploded upon hearing this.

“You better not spread rumors. Qin Xue is our family’s girl, my little sister. She isn’t someone you should be talking about so recklessly. Weren’t you trying to impress her before? Why are you so sour about her now?” Qin Gouzi stared blankly at Li Cuifen, trying to understand her intentions.

“That was then. No matter how nice I am to her, it’s useless if she doesn’t appreciate it.” At that time, Li Cuifen was trying to get close to Qin Yu, and since he was closest to Qin Xue, she thought impressing Qin Xue was a good way to approach Qin Yu. Unfortunately, Qin Xue wasn’t impressed, so Li Cuifen gave up.

“Can you two speak clearly and stop bringing my sister into this?” Qin Jiale glared at them both indignantly. Did they think that her sister did not exist?

“Lele, we didn’t say anything. I was actually trying to help you,” Qin Gouzi reassured Qin Jiale with a smile.

“We don’t need your help. Just stop spreading nonsensical rumours about them. As for the others, I don’t know how my sister has offended you all to the point where you’re all ganging up on her. It’s old news but now she’s already married, why are you still talking about her like this?” Qin Jiale confronted the women who were standing next to Mrs. Li. They were all gossipmongers discussing each other’s households.

“If it wasn’t for your sister, then Qin Su’e would have been married to your brother-in-law instead. Who knew your sister would resort to such tricks? She sent Qin Su’e to marry a man that Su’e didn’t like, causing her to live in bitterness,” a woman from the crowd said.

“Who told you my sister played tricks? Call them out and ask exactly how they saw it. Did they perhaps have some supernatural power that could see into my house? Even we at home don’t know about it, how come you all do?” Qin Jiale was so angry. Her plan today was to take her sister out and clear her name, but lo and behold, this happened.

“If your sister hadn’t interfered, why would your brother-in-law have ended up marrying her, when it was actually Qin Su’e who liked him first?” Another woman, who was close to Qin Su’e, chimed in.

“Who is Su’E?” Qin Xue softly asked. They kept talking about Su’e — claiming she had stolen Su’e’s man — she at least deserved to know who this Su’e was.
