The man’s voice was deep and carried a convincing gravity.

Gu Zi nodded as Su Shen steered the bicycle to a spacious area and turned back.

By this time, more people were on the road, returning from the fields to have their meals at home.

In the crowd walked Aunt Fang, who also caught sight of this beautiful and conspicuous scene.

She was seething with jealousy! This Gu Zi not only looked good but also married such a great man.

Unlike her, who had gone through dozens of men and still hadn’t found a reliable one!

She grabbed the arm of a woman nearby and spoke in a spiteful tone, “These city-bred pretty women are all hidden vipers. Don’t you know? She bullied poor Su Jing, not allowing her into the house and complaining that Su Jing’s gift wasn’t valuable enough.”

The women’s expressions turned subtle upon hearing this, their envy transforming into jealousy.

“Su Shen is doing better and better. This woman is really scheming. I was wondering why she dared to marry without having children.”

“Now, her true colors are out, right? Bullying her little sister-in-law now; later, she’ll bully those three children.”

“She onlv pretends to be zentle. Remember the dav she wanted to set a dog on

Su Jing’s man? If you don’t believe me, ask Aunt Fang.”

Seizing the opportunity to slander again, Aunt Fang said, “From being malicious sister-in-law now to being a malicious stepmother later. It’s all predestined!”

“I heard Su Shen bought her parents a red brick house at the entrance of the neighboring village. She’s quite cunning! Practically a fox spirit reincarnated.”

“What?! If three thousand yuan was not enough for the betrothal gift, how dare she want a house from the Su family? Such a greedy woman…”

Meanwhile, Gu Zi and Su Shen were almost at their doorstep, unaware that their brief outing had already painted Gu Zi as a fox spirit by those people’s descriptions.

In any case, reality was like this. Where there were people, there would be society. Where there was society, there’d be a social circle.

This inevitably led to gossip and disputes, especially in small communities where everyone knew each other, giving some a sense of arrogance because, after all, they were just gossiping within the village, unlikely to escalate into something significant.

Gu Zi and Su Shen entered the courtyard, where Su Bing had conscientiously finished the remaining bit of his homework.

Su Shen called Su Bing out to learn first, and Su Li sat nibbling his pen, his face filled with envy.

Gu Zi lifted Su Le, took a small stool, and walked over. She sat beside Su Li and said, “It’s okay, focus on your writing. I and Lele are here with you.”

Su Li then resumed writing. After a few minutes, he looked up, biting his lip, and asked, “Can you teach me? These questions are too difficult, especially math. Every time I finish my math homework, I feel like my head’s grown a size bigger.”

Gu Zi glanced at his problems; they were just basic primary school math questions, which were no problem for her, a graduate from a prestigious school.

Rather than directly providing answers, she took his notebook and explained the relevant calculation formulas to him.

Enthralled by the scent of his stepmother’s hair, Su Li was captivated. After Gu Zi finished explaining, he exclaimed in surprise, “Stepmom, I don’t feel sleepy when you explain math to me!”

“Good! You’re really clever, Su Li. Then, hurry and finish your homework!” Gu Zi encouraged him.

Filled with renewed energy, Su Li quickly completed his tasks.

When Su Bing came back and saw that Su Li’s answers and formula were accurate and logical, he suspected that his stepmother had helped Su Li.

Su Shen walked over and took the notebook. Su Li became especially cautious and did not dare to move.

After a while, Su Shen’s gaze fell on Su Li. In a deep voice, he said, “Good job.

Come and learn to ride a bike with me.”

Su Li’s eyes sparkled. Dad just said his homework was good? That was so cool!

Excited, he glanced at his stepmom and hurriedly followed his dad’s steps.

Su Shen first took him for a ride before letting him sit in the front seat. Then, he swapped to the back seat to provide some stability and let Su Li try paddling.

Initially, Su Li was quite scared, but because he could see his father behind him every time he turned, he finally relaxed and started practicing.

After dinner, Su Li panted as he reported on his progress, “Although I fell once,

I’ll continue practicing tomorrow!”

Su Bing deliberately provoked him coldly, “Actually, you don’t need to learn. I already know how to ride; I’ll take you..”
