Li Lanhua looked aggrieved, wiped her tears, and went out as she was told. Tian Zhuang was half lying on the bed, took out his pipe, put it over the fire and took two puffs, with a fairy-like face, grinning as he imagined the good days in the future.

Li Lanhua went to light the stove and heated up the rice for Tian Zhuang. After thinking for a while, she ran to the door of Tian Shaoqing's room and asked, "Shaoqing, are you hungry? Mom will cook you another bowl of noodles? Or make you a bowl of dumplings? We still have some meat filling at home."

Tian Shaoqing's voice soon rang out in the room: "No, you guys should finish eating and go to bed early."

Li Lanhua breathed a sigh of relief, said "eh", and ran back to heat up the food.

On the other side, the eldest sister-in-law of the Tian family put her ear to the door. When she heard Li Lanhua's footsteps going away, she was very angry and snorted, "See, even if he is not her biological son, he is better than you. It's late at night, and she has to cook noodles and make dumplings. There is only a little meat at home, and she doesn't feel bad to give a little to her own second son. Why doesn't she think about you?"

"Okay, stop talking and come up to bed." The eldest brother of the Tian family shook his head and asked her to go to bed.

"You useless thing! All you do is sleep! Why aren't you worried at all?" The eldest sister-in-law of the Tian family looked resentful and glared at him fiercely.

Looking at her expression, the eldest brother of the Tian family seemed to have lost interest. He turned his back to her, covered himself with the quilt, and prepared to sleep.

"Don't sleep!" The eldest sister-in-law of the Tian family rushed over, shook his back fiercely and said, "Look at your brother's attitude. If he really becomes rich in the future, will he remember us? All the benefits will be his by then. What should we do?"

"So what do you want?" The eldest brother of the Tian family was a little annoyed. He turned around and looked at her, his voice gloomy: "This is the decision of my parents. If you are dissatisfied, go and tell them. What's the point of telling me here?"

"You!" The eldest sister-in-law of the Tian family was furious. Seeing his wife like this, the eldest brother of the Tian family sighed and reached out to hug her. The eldest sister-in-law of the Tian family struggled for a few times, and suddenly heard him say, "Don't be angry, my second brother is not that kind of person. How could he not think about us? Look at how big the incident is today. Xia Rongrong has been arrested. Aren't my parents back?"

The eldest sister-in-law of the Tian family gradually stopped struggling, as if she had come to her senses. She looked at him and sobbed, "Do you believe it?"

"Why wouldn't I believe it? I heard from someone that the Xiao family's big boss has only one son. If my second brother goes to their house, won't he have the final say in everything in the future? He and I grew up together. How could he treat me badly?"

The eldest son of the Tian family spoke in a soothing voice and with confidence. He looked completely different from his honest expression during the day.

After all this back and forth, the eldest sister-in-law of the Tian family finally calmed down and whispered, "I don't know when we can be sure. These police officers and leaders have been staying in our Tuanjie Village. I feel really uneasy."

The eldest brother of the Tian family was silent for a long time. After a while, he said, "It should be soon. It's just a matter of time."

Shi had no idea about the Tian family's affairs, and was arranged by the brigade secretary to stay in a farmer's house at night.

When allocating housing, there was a problem. Because every household had many people and not enough houses, in the end only two households were vacated. One of them was the family of the branch secretary. They had many houses, so Xiao Fengnian, Tong Muzhen, and Zhao Tianqing all lived in his house.

As for the two policemen, they stayed overnight in the brigade office. After all, they had to take turns to look after Xia Rongrong.

The remaining three were Xiao Yue, Shi Ye and Xia Yun. The village party secretary was a little distressed as it was still a bit crowded for three people to live in one household. Xiao Yue and Shi Ye stood together and did not take the initiative to suggest that they also stay overnight in the brigade office.

He was worried about Shi Ye and Xia Yun being alone together. Of course, Shi Ye himself didn't want to do that and stood with Xiao Yue.

Xia Yun bit her lip and looked at the two people who were stuck together. She felt a little anxious. How could she separate them? As long as Shi Ye stayed by Xiao Yue's side, her mission would not be completed no matter what.

It was difficult to give a hug, and it was even more difficult to move Xiao Yue. This mission involved a contest between two systems, and the reward was unprecedented. The richer the reward, the stronger the backlash after the mission failed. After this time, she was really scared.

Just then, someone came to the team. It was Zhao Huai. He was pale, his steps were unsteady, and he looked like he had suffered a great blow.

The village party secretary frowned when he saw him: "Zhao Huai? Why are you here? Let me tell you, if you are here to plead for your mother, you'd better be told that what she did was illegal! This matter must be handled by the police comrades, no one's opinion will be of any use!"

Zhao Huai's face became even uglier. He waved his hands and said, "No, no, I was thinking that my sister had nowhere to sleep, so I came here specifically to ask someone to come over. Even if my mother did something wrong, we are still relatives, family members, right?"

While speaking, Zhao Huai kept looking at Xia Yun and Shi Ye with pleading eyes. It was obvious that he wanted to learn some internal matters through the two of them so as to achieve the goal of rescuing Xia Rongrong. He didn't just want them to stay overnight.

"I want to stay with Brother Xiao Yue." Shi also leaned on Xiao Yue's shoulder, looking clingy.

Zhao Huai and Xia Yun's faces turned black, and Xia Yun's face was even more distorted: "Shi Ye, you, do you have any shame?"

Tong Muzhen came out of the house and just heard this. She frowned and asked in a deep voice, "What did you say?"

Xia Yun's face changed, she bit her lip and raised her voice, "Shi wants to live with Brother Xiao Yue too! Aunt, they are not married yet, why should they live together? If this gets out, will you and Uncle Xiao have face?"

Tong Muzhen looked normal. She looked at Xia Yun and said calmly, "They have submitted their marriage report. I have received news that the Northwest has passed the political review. Shiye is my daughter-in-law. Do you have any opinion? You have never been home. You said you were going to the Northwest, but you left without looking back. Now you are back and you are meddling in everything about Ah Yue and Xiaoye."

Although Tong Muzhen's voice was calm, she could not hide her disgust in her words, which made Xia Yun's face turn pale.

Xiao Fengnian was standing at the door. When he heard Tong Muzhen's words, his lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but he finally took back his steps, took a deep breath, and went back into the house. He did not go out to get involved in these things again.

Perhaps, he was wrong. He had been accommodating Xia Sheng again and again because of his comradeship.

Xia Yun has always been very dependent on him, but she is always a little afraid of Mu Zhen.

"Secretary, so many things happened today. Please arrange for my son and daughter-in-law to live together. As for Xia Yun, let her go with Zhao Huai. They are relatives and should stay together." Tong Muzhen's voice was cold, and after she finished speaking, she turned and went into the house.
