Qin Zhenzhen couldn't be bothered to express her opinion; laziness got the better of her.
Even Su Ning could see through such obvious logic, so there was no reason why Su Cheng couldn't.
Qin Zhenzhen knew that Qian Duoduo was up to no good, yet she couldn't control Su Cheng's desire to remain friends with him.
As the three of them departed, the villagers around them engaged in lively discussions.
"Didn't they say that the chubby girl beats and scolds Su Cheng and his sister? But I saw how much she cared for them. The moment she arrived, she untied Su Cheng and did her best to protect his dignity."
"That's right. People say Qin Zhenzhen is stubborn, reckless, domineering, and fierce, but I think she's reasonable and intelligent."
"She didn't say a word, yet with just a few sentences, she cleared Su Cheng's name. Many men wouldn't have been able to do that, but she did."
"That's why rumors can't be trusted!"

In the village, there was a family who owned a rice shop in town. They kept a supply of rice in their house for the convenience of the villagers, allowing them to purchase or exchange it for other goods.
Qin Zhenzhen headed straight to their house, intending to buy some rice.
Due to the delay caused by Su Cheng's incident, it was already late, so she decided to have lunch before returning to her parents' house in the afternoon.
She recalled Su Ning mentioning that there was no more rice left in the rice jar.
Su Cheng and Su Ning found it puzzling.
How did she know they were planning to buy rice?
Su Bin had given Su Cheng his living expenses the day before, so he was prepared to purchase ten catties of rice.
However, Qin Zhenzhen took out half a liang and said, "I want to buy 50 catties of rice."
The lady boss smiled warmly and responded, "Alright, alright, I'll weigh it for you right away."
Both Su Ning and Su Cheng were taken aback. Why was she buying such a large quantity?
How long did she plan on eating alone?
Qin Zhenzhen reached out to Su Cheng for the rice bag. "Give me the bag."
Su Cheng was torn. "We need rice too. I want to buy ten catties."
Qin Zhenzhen looked at him. "I bought 25 kilograms. You don't have to buy it now. You can get some later."
Su Ning quickly pulled on Fifth Brother's sleeve. "Give the rice bag to Third Sister-in-law."
If she heard correctly, the 25 kilograms of rice bought was for the whole family.
Although she felt like the impossible had happened, Su Ning was delighted.
Qin Zhenzhen walked steadily, shouldering the 50 catties of rice.
The villagers couldn't help but discuss when they saw this.
"It's worth it for Su Bin to marry such a capable girl. Instead of needing a dowry, she brings one."
"I heard her dowry alone is worth more than ten taels of silver."
"What matters more is that she's willing to use her family's money now. Su Ning and Su Cheng won't go hungry anymore."
"She's also so strong. She's no less capable than any man when it comes to farming."
"And she genuinely cares for her husband's younger siblings. She protects Su Cheng as if he were her own brother."
News of Qin Zhenzhen clearing Su Cheng's name had already spread throughout the village.
The villagers were simple-minded, believing that rumors couldn't be trusted. As a result, they reevaluated their perception of Qin Zhenzhen.
Su Ning and Su Cheng had mixed expressions upon hearing the villagers' comments.
If Qin Zhenzhen truly changed for the better, it wasn't that they couldn't accept it. The main concern was their older brother's reaction.
Upon returning home, Qin Zhenzhen poured the rice into the rice jar.
Su Ning displayed more familiarity and closeness towards Qin Zhenzhen than before. She sought Qin Zhenzhen's opinion, asking, "Third Sister-in-law, should we still make porridge for lunch?"
Qin Zhenzhen wasn't surprised by Su Ning's behavior. She had already promised to treat Su Ning well when Su Ning pleaded with her.
She didn't expect this girl to keep her word.
Haha, since this girl was being kind to her, she would reciprocate the kindness.
Qin Zhenzhen shook her head. "Let's cook rice, stir-fry some cabbage, fry some eggs, and fill our stomachs."
