Chapter 431 Neighbors Chapter 431 Neighbors
As soon as Grandma Wu left, Bao Cuiping, who lived next door to Xinghua, opened the door and secretly looked at the next door for a while. Then she walked in and muttered to the man Xu Jianwu: "Why is it so lively next door these days? People keep coming to visit?"

Xu Jianwu drank his tea and frowned, "What does it have to do with you if someone comes to visit?"

Bao Cuiping curled her lips, "How come it doesn't matter? That little devil next door has seduced our son's soul. If I hadn't forced him to live with my eldest brother, that kid might not even have the heart to study!"

Bao Cuiping was furious when she mentioned this. Ever since Xinghua and her daughter moved here, her obedient and sensible son seemed to have lost his soul. He would go out every day to meet Cai Wei by chance and make small talk with her. Bao Cuiping saw it and hated her in her heart.

He felt that his son's studies were delayed because of Cai Wei. He looked at Cai Wei and her daughter with disdain and even cursed Cai Wei several times in a veiled way.

From then on, Xinghua didn't let Cai Wei go out. Except for selling tofu, Cai Wei stayed at home all the time. Not only did Bao Cuiping's son not meet her, even Bao Cuiping hadn't seen Cai Wei for a long time, so she had no chance to cause trouble for her.

But even so, Bao Cuiping's son did not give up, and even wanted to climb over the wall to peek at Cai Wei.

Bao Cuiping was not going to stand this anymore. She was so angry that she made a big scene. She couldn't bear to hit her own son, so she stood in the yard in front of her son and cursed Xinghua's mother and daughter. Although she didn't name any names, everyone knew what she was cursing about.

Bao Cuiping's son was so anxious that he burst into tears, knelt down to admit his mistake, and promised to study hard and go to college. Only then was the matter settled.

But Bao Cuiping was not completely relieved. How could her son concentrate on his studies when there was a seductress next door who kept him thinking about her all day? So she went to her parents' home to find her brother and sister-in-law and persuaded them to make room for her son.

Since her son no longer lived here, she naturally gave up the idea. Bao Cuiping then stopped causing trouble for Xinghua and her daughter. However, she still disliked them. When they met on weekdays, they treated each other as if they were air, and the two families would not even say a word to each other.

Now seeing that the neighbors suddenly became active, Bao Cuiping naturally took notice.

Xu Jianwu laughed twice in contempt, "Comrade Bao Cuiping, forgive me for being blunt, but he probably doesn't even know your son's name, much less what he did. But you keep staring at him and looking for trouble."

Xu Jianwu is an elementary school teacher and a well-educated man, but he married a wife who is uneducated and unreasonable.

Bao Cuiping couldn't take it anymore, she put her hands on her hips and retorted: "My name is Yu Mou, if you don't understand, don't say anything!"

Xu Jianwu was speechless and said, "To tell you the truth, I recently ran into a teenage girl who often went to play with the girl next door. Maybe it was the elders of her family who came over. Why do you care so much?"

It is still summer vacation now. Xu Jianwu is not at work and often goes out to have tea and chat with people. It is not uncommon for him to run into Yan Qiaoqiao. Bao Cuiping works in a factory, from nine to five. She has never seen Yan Qiaoqiao and does not know about these things.

Bao Cuiping was stunned for a moment and didn't say anything. She turned around and argued with Xu Jianwu about the children's education. She was the typical person who knew she was wrong but refused to admit it and had to get back at the situation.
