In such an atmosphere, He Xiaolian felt like a helpless little animal surrounded by flames, and every breath was torture.

Although Zhang Yufei's words were well-intentioned, they were like ice water poured on her burning heart. It was a bone-chilling chill that caused her self-esteem to collapse instantly.

Her eyes were full of despair and unwillingness. She looked straight into Zhang Yufei's eyes, her voice trembling but firm, and every word was filled with the pain of being misunderstood.

The surrounding noise seemed to stop at this moment, leaving only her accusations echoing in the air.

The moment she turned around, He Xiaolian seemed to be driven by some strong emotion and rushed towards Su Yu regardless of everything. It was an almost blind impulse, and she just wanted to find an outlet to vent her anger.

Su Yu was as calm as ever. He gently turned sideways, as if he had expected it. He Xiaolian lost her balance and fell. The scene was frozen in astonishment.

The crowd's reaction receded as quickly as the tide, leaving only He Xiaolian crying helplessly. That cry contained too many complex emotions, including grievance, anger, unwillingness and deep self-doubt.

She was no longer the gentle wife she usually was, but became a "mad woman" in the eyes of everyone. At this moment, she was completely exposed to the indifference of the world.

A complex look flashed across Su Yu's eyes, showing both sympathy and helplessness. Her words were clear and firm, leaving no room for Zhang Yufei.

Her attitude is to protect her own reputation and to bid farewell to this unnecessary entanglement.

Zhang Yufei's repeated apologies were filled with a sense of powerlessness. He knew very well that no matter what he said at this moment, it would be difficult to salvage this embarrassing situation.

For Su Yu, although she acted openly, she still felt a little guilty in such a storm, realizing that in the relationship between men and women, sometimes even with good intentions, one needs to be more cautious to avoid misunderstandings.

Her reflection made people around her admire her more, and also made Zhang Yufei feel more ashamed. After all, the source of all this was more or less related to him.

Zhang Yufei's heart was in turmoil. He reflected on his own behavior and regretted the change in He Xiaolian.

She used to be so gentle and considerate. They had been through countless ups and downs together, but as life became increasingly comfortable, they lost their former harmony.

He Xiaolian's transformation made him heartbroken and confused, and the cracks in the family seemed to have become scars that were difficult to heal.

Su Yu's departure made Zhang Yufei realize how his one thought had triggered a chain reaction, leading to today's mess.

He sighed deeply and made up his mind that no matter what, he must deal with everything in front of him, even if the road ahead was full of thorns.

As for He Xiaolian, she lay on the ground with tears streaming down her face. The beautiful memories of the past formed a sharp contrast with the cruel reality, which made people sigh.

The warmth that once supported them through the difficult times now seems like a distant dream, out of reach.

The indifference of the onlookers made her feel unprecedented loneliness and helplessness.

As for Qian Xiucai's awakening, it seemed to be the only bright spot in this farce. His decision might bring some positive impact to this turmoil.

As for how the outside world views this series of events and what new rumors will arise, we can only let the rumors continue to spread in every corner of the town.

The person who said this was a plump, sharp-faced middle-aged woman, and her eyes revealed a deep dissatisfaction and jealousy towards Su Yu.

The middle-aged woman was dressed in dark red clothes, with her hair tightly tied behind her head. Every strand of her hair seemed to contain resentment towards Su Yu's calm and confident "I'm so awesome" look.

As a woman, she could not bear the fact that Su Yu was able to save lives with his medical skills and was respected and loved by his fellow villagers, while she could only spend her time on the trivialities of firewood, rice, oil and salt.

Jealousy is an emotion that can distort human nature, and she has a deep understanding of this.

She knew that in this small town, the best way to completely bring down a woman was to weave a series of rumors and let those unfounded gossips grow like summer weeds. All this was done at a low cost and only required a mouth that was good at spreading rumors.

Once a woman's reputation is damaged, even if she has the ability to turn things around, it is difficult for her to rebuild her reputation under the pressure of rumors.

These words were as sharp as a knife, and the surroundings suddenly fell into silence. No one wanted to get involved in the storm that was about to break out.

Su Yuben had already taken a few light steps, his back revealing unquestionable pride and determination.

However, those harsh words were like a needle in the cold wind, piercing through her calm surface, causing her to pause, then turn around, with the hem of her skirt drawing a decisive arc in the wind.

With two crisp sounds, like summer thunder, Su Yu's palms landed heavily on the middle-aged woman's face with such force that bystanders could feel the shaking air.

The people around were instantly shocked and puzzled, their eyes full of astonishment at Su Yu's sudden and powerful move - it turned out that this woman who was usually as gentle as water also had such a side that could not be provoked.

The beaten woman seemed to see countless stars twinkling in front of her eyes, and Su Yu's cold words echoed in her ears. Although the voice was not loud, it was full of unquestionable power.

"Watch your mouth. If I hear any more gossip from you, I won't mind teaching you to be truly silent."

This warning is not so much a threat as it is a profound sorrow and a rebuke to the evil nature of human nature.

Su Yu had no intention of staying long, but just as she turned to leave, she accidentally caught a subtle detail, a clue about the woman's physical condition, which made her smile with a hint of irony.

"You know that your five internal organs are out of balance, and the anger accumulated in your chest is like a smoldering flame, which not only burns you, but also pollutes the air around you. Your bad breath is a manifestation of the internal fire leaking out. Why don't you restrain it a little so that others won't avoid it?"

Su Yu's words contained both sarcasm and a bit of compassion. She knew very well what health meant to a person.

Then, she changed the subject and directly pointed out the unspeakable pain in the other party's family, "Instead of worrying about my family affairs, you might as well pay more attention to the feelings of your family. Facing your tone that is like swallowing filth day after day, how much pain must he endure in his heart?"

The gossipy woman's face turned pale. She never expected that Su Yu could see through her illness at a glance and make it public without mercy.

Normally, she always covered her mouth carefully when speaking, trying not to let others notice her embarrassment. However, in this sudden conflict, all her disguises were torn apart, and the unpleasant smell spread quickly like a poisonous fog.
