Capítulo 196: Chapter 194: The Person Behind

Just a few days before the New Year, Old Mr. Shi had no plans to return to the prefecture city, so he and Mrs. Liu Lin returned to the village to celebrate the New Year.

The house belonging to Xiao'er's maternal grandparents was rebuilt this spring into a two-compartment residence.

It was designed by Xiao'er, with everything as practical, convenient, and beautiful as her new home.

The sight of it left Old Mr. Shi, who had long been accustomed to a life of wealth and luxury, full of praise.

He repeatedly said that Xiao'er had her great-grandmother's grace, and she was a woman who didn't fall behind men.

At first, when the villagers saw Old Mr. Shi, they thought he was Mrs. Liu Lin's new husband. When Mrs. Liu Ma got wind of this, she used it as an excuse to hurl insults.

She accused Mrs. Liu Lin of being an unfaithful woman, who did not deserve to be supported by the Liu family's offspring, nor to live in the Liu family's house.
