Shen Baolan had just returned to Shenjiagou for two days, and the villagers didn't pay much attention, thinking it was just a routine visit home. Some even teased Liu Cuihua, complimenting her on her good fortune, as her daughter, married off to the city, still frequently came back to see her in the countryside.
But as Shen Baolan stayed for several days with no sign of returning to her husband's family, the villagers began to speculate whether she had had a falling out with them.
Some busybodies even went to the city to inquire further.
Oh, boy, once they did, it turned out to be a huge mess. Shen Baolan had stirred up serious trouble and had almost landed in jail!
Good news stays at home; bad news travels far and wide.
In less than half a day, Shen Baolan's "brave deeds" had spread throughout Shenjiagou and even to neighboring villages.
