Gotta hand it to Li Tingyan, he played this move perfectly. By reprimanding Kang Jian so mercilessly, he not only established authority for his wife, making it impossible for the other women in the neighborhood to look down on her again.
It also served as a warning for the gossip lovers—not with Kang Jian as an example, who would dare to fabricate rumors out of thin air in the future?
This greatly reduced conflicts and would make everyone get along more harmoniously.
A dejected Kang Jian caught his wife Yang Mei and went home. Today was really unlucky for him, and he was prepared to vent all his anger on Yang Mei.
Everything was resolved satisfactorily, and those who came to watch quickly dispersed. Nianyang only wanted to be alone with Li Tingyan.
So she hurriedly said goodbye to Xu Zhiyi and Lin Xia and dragged the grubby Li Tingyan back to the household quarters.
