Reborn into a Farming Family: My 18 Virtuous Wife is a Hero

Zhang Huifen couldn't hold back any longer. She jumped up and pointed at Su Mu's nose, nagging, "Hey! How can you talk like that, you little brat? Don't you have any manners? What did your parents teach you? Don't you know that guests are guests? You want to kick us out?! I'll see how you kick me out today! You're so mean and sharp-tongued at such a young age. Even when you grow up, you'll just be a worthless burden that no one wants."

After the family revealed their identities, Su's father remained silent and did not cause any trouble. However, upon hearing that his daughter was being slandered, he immediately retorted angrily, "Whether my daughter is unwanted or not is none of your business."

"Mr. Li, please leave immediately."

After saying that, he glared at Zhang Huifen with the same fierce look as Su Ma.

Seeing the atmosphere turn tense, he was angry at Su Mu's words, but even more angry at Zhang Huifen's inability to restrain herself. He thought that since the talks had broken down, he would no longer pretend to be aloof and raised his eyebrows.

“Mr. Su, although my nephew is the son of the deputy mayor, apart from this incident, he has never done anything immoral. Do you think we can settle this privately, or should I have my elder brother come and apologize to you in person?”

His expression grew increasingly smug. He thought to himself, how dare a lowly migrant worker challenge the mayor? If his elder brother hadn't instructed him not to reveal his identity unless absolutely necessary, he would have already said it. Why would he have had to act like a coward in front of everyone?

Upon hearing this, Mr. and Mrs. Su's expressions changed instantly. The deputy mayor?! That was someone they had only seen on television. Even if he couldn't wield immense power, dealing with them, mere farmers, would be a piece of cake for him. Even if they weren't afraid, their daughter still needed to study in the city. They had lived in the countryside for most of their lives and knew the hardships of farmers, but they didn't want their only daughter to spend her life in obscurity in a small mountain village. The two of them thought of the same thing and exchanged a troubled glance.

Su Mu gritted her teeth, seeing that her parents were showing signs of compromise. She knew perfectly well that they were looking out for her. In her previous life in the Xu family, Xu's mother didn't like Su's parents visiting, fearing it would be embarrassing for them in the villa area. So even if Su's parents missed their daughter, they wouldn't come to the Xu family to put her in a difficult position. Su Mu would always go to her parents' house to see them whenever she had free time. Whether in her previous life or this one, her parents cared most about her, but she was always weak. Even when her parents were bullied and insulted by Xu's mother, she didn't dare to speak up for them. She would just hide in her room and secretly shed tears.

Her heart suddenly ached, and her gaze as she looked up at Li Yan grew even colder.

In this life, no one can touch her parents, whether it's through insults, threats, or physical abuse.

Dragons have scales that cannot be touched, wolves have thorns that cannot be hidden; to touch them is certain death, to peek at them is certain death.

And Su's parents happen to be her Achilles' heel and her hidden thorn!

Li Yan felt a chill run down his spine under Su Mu's gaze, and cold sweat instantly broke out. However, thanks to his elder brother's experience in official circles, he was now a deputy section chief in the municipal finance bureau, a deputy section-level civil servant. He quickly regained his composure.

Although puzzled by Su Mu's imposing aura, she still mustered her courage and asked, "Mr. and Mrs. Su, what have you decided?"

After saying that, he instructed his bodyguard to open the purse and place it on the bedside table, deliberately revealing the layers of blue-green banknotes inside.

When Zhang Huifen saw that her husband had put all the money on the table, she immediately became anxious. Just as she was about to speak, Li Yan pulled her hand, and the grip on her hand was so tight it hurt terribly. Zhang Huifen immediately lost her temper, shook off his hand, and snorted heavily.

Su Mu already knew what was inside, so he wasn't surprised. On the contrary, Su's parents were a bit stunned to see so much money for the first time. After a while, they came to their senses and realized that this was a way to silence their family. Their faces darkened immediately.

Su Mu's lips curled into a slight smile as he sneered, "So what if I'm the vice mayor?!"
