MDMP Chapter 63.4

When people heard that the young man was not married and was about to become a college student, Feng Qiqing received even more attention.

Many military wives thought that Feng Qiqing was good and wanted to introduce him to someone.

The last time the military wives in the family compound were so lively was when they were busy introducing Lu Rong a few years ago.

When everyone talked about this matter, they inevitably mentioned Lin Juan again.

When Lin Juan heard these people mention this matter again, the smile on her face froze.

She didn’t expect that after she kept a low profile for so many years, these people would bring up these things and repeatedly whip her corpse¹*鞭尸, biānshī: to whip the corpse.

Whipping a corpse is an ancient practice that aims to humiliate the dead. It refers to digging a person out of his grave and whipping his body after his death, which is a metaphor for deep hatred. This was the greatest insult to the dead in ancient times.

On the Internet, people dug up failed predictions, inappropriate content, or rumors and repeatedly ridiculed and criticized them afterward, which is also called “whipping the corpse”, which is equivalent to “opening scars”.

The act of proactively finding old articles or posts and refreshing them to the front page (or top of the list) to draw attention is called “grave digging.”!

Lin Juan didn’t want to listen, but someone insisted on whispering in her ear.

The person whispering in her ear was Zhang Taohua.

Because of Lu Rong’s incident that year, Lin Juan’s impression in front of other military wives fell to the bottom.

Originally, those private jokes were not big or small.

If Lin Juan had successfully married Lu Rong at that time, everyone would have talked about it in private. After all, they were married, so they couldn’t say too much.

But the main thing was that Lin Juan failed, so this was very subtle. The image that Lin Juan had created before was directly knocked to pieces.

Although they still smiled at Lin Juan on the surface, Lin Juan didn’t know what they said about her in private.

So, Lin Juan didn’t have the thick skin to continue to be intimate with them.

Although Zhang Taohua couldn’t help but criticize Lin Juan when she heard about Lin Juan’s gossip and kept complaining in front of Lin Juan for a long time, fortunately, Zhang Taohua was a person who didn’t remember things.

Although Lin Juan didn’t like Zhang Taohua very much, in comparison, Zhang Taohua was a person with no bad intentions.

Lin Juan still needed to know the situation of the family compound through Zhang Taohua at any time, so she wouldn’t be alienated from her.

Although the price of this was that she had to endure Zhang Taohua’s nagging.

At this moment, Zhang Taohua was telling Lin Juan that everyone wanted to introduce a girl to Feng Qiqing.

Zhang Taohua was a simple-minded person. She didn’t know how to be discreet when speaking. She directly repeated what everyone discussed about Lin Juan in front of Lin Juan.

When Lin Juan heard this, her face turned red and white.

Zhang Taohua was unaware of this at all, and the topic went back to Feng Qiqing.

“This young man is Feng He’s younger brother. Feng He is a cultured person. I didn’t expect that her younger brother is not bad either.”

“Speaking of which, when Feng He’s family lived opposite my house, our two families had such a good relationship! But they moved away and didn’t get along with us anymore.” Zhang Taohua felt very sorry about this.

Lin Juan twitched her lips when she heard this.

Zhang Taohua was too clueless. She never thought that it was possible that the Zhao family moved away because of her.

“The college entrance examination is really crazy, but why did it suddenly resume? I heard that it is a matter of honor for a family to have a college student. I don’t understand these things. My family has several children who are not very good at studying, alas.” Zhang Taohua said again.

Lin Juan responded casually.

Lin Juan didn’t have much interest in the college entrance examination. Anyway, she couldn’t and didn’t have the ability to participate.

But the resumption of the college entrance examination was indeed a good thing. The resumption of the college entrance examination meant that the reform and opening up at the end of next year was not far away!

Thinking of this, Lin Juan became a little excited.

When the reform and opening up came, she would no longer have to live in this family compound. Plus, with the memory of her past life, she would definitely be able to show off her skills and be proud of herself outside.

She would no longer have to endure the wrath of these nagging women!
