My best friend is living a famine-stricken life; you're going crazy, I'm farming.

"That can't be right, can it? Wasn't it said that Madam Yang mistreated her daughter-in-law, not even giving her leftovers?"

"Yes, didn't she say that she disliked her daughter-in-law for not washing clothes properly and wouldn't let her do it?"

"But according to Madam Yang, there's more to the story."

"Even if it's true, Shen Yu is still lucky. I'd rather give the leftovers to others and cook fresh ones myself."

Young wives often say, "I wish my mother-in-law would also complain that I'm not clean enough and wouldn't let me wash."

The mothers-in-law all said, "Yang is so useless. What family would serve a daughter-in-law like this? She'd be a piece of cake to be treated like this!"

Yang Fenglan lowered her head, listening to everyone's words, her lips almost curling into a crooked smile.

Fortunately, it was she who was forcibly made stupid in the book, and the eyes of the masses are still discerning.

"Please don't say that, it was my own choice." Yang Fenglan sniffed and choked up, "Village chief, if Xiaoyu wants a divorce, then let her have one. I know that my Jingyi has become disabled, and she doesn't want to take care of him, and I don't want to waste her precious youth either."

"Besides, my family is out of money to treat Jingyi's leg. I'm not capable enough to take good care of her or provide her with a good life. If she wants to leave, let her go."

Yang Fenglan cried so hard her voice trembled, sounding even more grief-stricken than if her husband had died.

Those with soft hearts started wiping away tears along with her.

"Waaah, her son broke his leg, her daughter-in-law wants a divorce, she's so heartbroken her voice is hoarse, but she's still speaking up for Shen Yu, it's really..."

"It hasn't been easy for Ms. Yang to raise her child alone all these years while also taking care of her parents-in-law."

“We’ve known Madam Yang for over ten years. Do you think we don’t know what kind of person she is? How could someone who doesn’t even dare to raise her voice be a wicked mother-in-law?”

"Yes, it was Shen Yu who said how badly she treated her daughter-in-law. We were so lucky to believe her and misunderstood Madam Yang."

Yang Fenglan frantically waved her hands at the onlookers, "No, no, no, it's my fault for not doing it well. Don't talk to Xiaoyu like that, she'll be unhappy."

"You practically fed her, and you still say it's not done? Shen Yu, you're being unfair! Your husband has a broken leg, and you're still worried about food. Will you die if you miss a meal?" a burly woman shouted.

"You divorced your husband as soon as he broke his leg. Isn't that a clear sign that you don't want to take care of him? This is just being a snob, heartless and unjust. With such character, who would want you in the future?"

"I didn't, I didn't..." Shen Yu's face was pale, and she waved her hands repeatedly.

The village chief sighed, "Shen, since your mother-in-law has put it this way, if you really don't want to take care of Jingyi and dislike this family, then leave."

"Village chief, I... that's not what I meant."

"Since that's not what you meant, then take good care of Jingyi. The doctor said that if he recovers well, Jingyi will be able to get out of bed. If the whole family works together, we will eventually have a better life."

Shen Yu gripped the hem of her skirt tightly with both hands.

With so many eyes watching, if she really just ignores everything and leaves, wouldn't that confirm that she's a snob, heartless, and unjust person?

Can she walk?

The answer is no.

Her reputation doesn't matter, but she can't let her reputation affect that person's future.

Shen Yu had no choice but to bite the bullet and take the opportunity offered by the village chief: "As everyone knows, I am not a heartless person, but the thought of Jingyi being close to other women makes me lose my composure. In the end, it's because I care about Jingyi too much."

Yang Fenglan curled the corners of her mouth; she knew the female lead was moral.

Yang Fenglan patted Shen Yu's hand with a righteous air, "Mother knows you care about Jingyi. That girl is Jingyi's savior. We have to be magnanimous and not repay kindness with enmity or turn the tables on her, right?"

"Don't worry, if Jingyi really does something reckless and does something to betray you, I'll throw him into the river and drown him to avenge you."

“…Uh, there’s really no need for that…” Shen Yu twitched the corner of her mouth.

If Zhou Jingyi loses a leg, you can accuse me of being a snob. If he really dies, wouldn't I become a murderer?
