Lu Guohua suddenly looked at Ye Yun and asked, "Qin Zheng's wife, how do you plan to handle this matter?"

"I?"

Ye Yun couldn't help but laugh. "If you ask me, I don't know how to handle this matter either, but I don't want to suffer this injustice for nothing."

Don't worry, I will absolutely not let you suffer any injustice.

Qin Zheng held her hand, gave her a reassuring look, and turned to Lü Guohua, saying, "Uncle Lü, I called you here today because I wanted you to uphold justice. If you can't uphold justice, I'll do it myself. In short, my wife can't suffer this injustice for nothing."

"Yes, yes, I understand you."

Lu Guohua nodded repeatedly.

He couldn't help but curse Li Xiuying and the Guo family's ancestors for eighteen generations. Damn it, that son of a bitch Guo had to mess with Qin Zheng and Ye Yun of all people. Blackwater Village was really unlucky to have run into this mother and daughter!

Lu Guohua immediately waved his hand, "Since that's the case, I'll make the decision for you!"

oh?

Ye Yun and Qin Zheng exchanged a glance, raised their eyebrows, and cast curious glances at Lü Guohua. "Uncle Lü, how do you plan to handle this matter?"

"Just you wait and see."

Lu Guohua knew that Ye Yun's life was at stake, and this matter could not be left unresolved. He called Erdanzi to go to Lao Guo's house and bring Guo Youcai over.

Erdanzi quickly rode off on his old-fashioned bicycle.

However, when he returned, he only brought Li Xiuying with him, and Guo Youcai was nowhere to be seen.

Erdanzi shoved his old bicycle aside, hands on his hips, and cursed angrily, "Damn it! That Guo Youcai is really something, he actually got away!"

They ran away?

Startled, Lü Guohua stood up from the bench and went outside, only to see Li Xiuying standing in the yard with an indifferent expression.

Li Xiuying stood in the courtyard, still with that unrepentant look on her face.

"Li Xiuying, where is your Guo Youcai?"

Lu Guohua was still holding a cigarette in his hand, smoking it, and the village chief's authority suddenly emanated from him.

Li Xiuying seemed to only then notice Lü Guohua, gave a perfunctory smile, clapped her hands and said, "Look at what you're saying, Brother Lü. My youngest son is never home, how would I know where he went?"

"Hmph, you don't know? There's probably no one else in the world who knows!"

Lu Guohua knew without guessing that Li Xiuying had sent the person away in advance. Qin Zheng had a violent temper, and Ye Yun was his lifeline. Guo Youcai actually set his sights on Ye Yun. Wasn't this cutting off Qin Zheng's lifeline?

Li Xiuying fell silent after that.

Anyway, she doesn't know, and if she doesn't say anything, no one can do anything to her youngest son!

Qin Zheng sat solemnly in the main room, his gaze devoid of any emotion as he stared at Li Xiuying in the courtyard. His fist, resting on the table, gradually clenched, and he said coldly, "Uncle Lü, since we can't find her son, let her take his place."

Lu Guohua glanced back at Qin Zheng, his eyes filled with uncertainty.

Li Xiuying's expression also changed, and she turned her surprised gaze to Qin Zheng inside the house, saying, "Qin Zheng, don't be so heartless! I'm your mother!"

Qin Zheng scoffed, "We severed ties long ago, what kind of mother are you?"

Seeing that his expression didn't seem to indicate that he recognized her as his mother, Li Xiuying quickly turned to Lü Guohua and said, "Brother Lü, this is Youcai's business, it has nothing to do with me. If Qin Zheng wants to vent his anger, he should go find Youcai, don't try to pin it on me!"

Anyway, her youngest son had already been sent away, so Qin Zheng couldn't find him even if he wanted to.

Qin Zheng said coldly, "You say it was your son who did it, but your son says you taught him. You two, one gave the idea and the other carried it out, are equally guilty! Uncle Lü, my wife's grievances cannot be suffered in vain. You decide what to do."

Finally, he added, "If you can't do it, I'll do it myself."

The words were laced with threat.

Lu Guohua was startled and quickly said, "Qin Zheng, Qin Zheng, we can talk this out. Uncle Lu won't let your wife suffer this injustice for nothing. Please don't make a move."

If Qin Zheng were to take action, would Guo Youcai still be alive?

Lu Guohua quickly looked at Li Xiuying, his face darkening. He said sternly, "Li Xiuying! You and your daughter are going too far! I'm punishing you today! Your old sow, this year's grain harvest, and the grain harvest for the next two years will all belong to the Qin family. You don't need to go to the fields for the wheat harvest; Qin Zheng will do it!"

He waved to Qin Zheng, "Qin Zheng, when the wheat harvest comes, go straight to collect the grain!"

Qin Zheng remained silent, his cold gaze relentlessly attacking Lü Guohua, which sent chills down Lü Guohua's spine.

Lu Guohua looked at Ye Yun.

Ye Yun remained silent, her unreadable gaze fixed on him.

At this point, Lü Guohua scratched the back of his head, a little embarrassed, and said, "Qin Zheng, Qin Zheng's wife, are you not satisfied with this outcome?"

Qin Zheng said calmly, "An old sow and the harvest from a few acres of grain, can they be exchanged for my wife's life?"

He sneered, "Uncle Lü, don't forget, my wife is pregnant. My wife's life, my child's life, can he possibly pay for with this little bit of money?"

Lu Guohua's forehead was beaded with cold sweat.

Originally, he had planned to have Guo Youcai come over and kowtow to Ye Yun a few times, but Guo Youcai ran away, leaving only Li Xiuying. It didn't seem very practical to have Li Xiuying kowtow to Ye Yun...

Qin Xiang'e couldn't stand it anymore either.

“Brother Lü, let me make this clear first. It’s not that our family is being unreasonable, but their youngest son is cowardly and doesn’t value our daughter-in-law’s life. We won’t let him off easily.”

Although Qin Xiang'e had always been weak, she was determined not to back down on this matter.
