He met Qiu Sanniang earlier than Liao Yuan.

On the day I first met Qiu Sanniang, she was on the beach, kneeling beside her parents' corpses, wailing loudly.

Her parents encountered a storm at sea, and their ship was destroyed, resulting in their deaths.

She was left all alone.

She cried so unceremoniously that no one could help but feel sorry for her.

He was an exception.

Hearing her cry, he inexplicably recalled the lewd jokes told by those old lecherous men in the gang, and his heart surged with emotion.

Upon closer inspection, he discovered that she had a beautiful figure, and the idea of ​​marrying her arose in his mind.

However, since her parents had just passed away, she was definitely not in the mood to get married. After finding out the details, he left.

They plan to send a matchmaker to their door again after a while.

Little did anyone know that just after her parents' seven-day mourning period, she was kidnapped by a small gang of bandits and sold to a pleasure boat.

As luck would have it, just as she boarded the pleasure boat, it was seized by the Hongyun Gang.

Liao Yuan took a liking to her, brought her back to the gang, and even waited until she finished her mourning period before marrying her.

The woman he had his eye on suddenly became his sworn brother's woman, and he drank heavily in frustration during that time.

But he could only hide all his thoughts and, like everyone else in the gang, respectfully call her sister-in-law.

She was very smart and learned everything quickly. Although her constitution was extremely weak and she couldn't even drink hot water, it was thanks to her advice and strategies that the Hongyun Gang gradually grew stronger.

They were no different from other pirate gangs before, but after she arrived, she said that the fishermen were destitute and they wouldn't get much money even if they were robbed.

If you're going to rob someone, rob those corrupt officials or ruthless bandits.

It can win the hearts of the people and reap huge rewards.

He didn't understand why a pirate gang needed the people's support, but Liao Yuan listened and stopped bothering the people, instead focusing on double-crossing each other.

With money and fame, followers flocked to the gang like a tidal wave, and within a few years, the Hongyun Gang became the largest pirate gang in Southern Vietnam.

She thus became the undisputed elder sister-in-law.

The gang members treated her the same way they treated Liao Yuan.

This is why Liao Yuan handed over the leadership of the Hongyun Gang to her instead of him.

He felt it was good for the two of them to protect the gang together.

Of all people, a pretty boy showed up.

"...If it weren't for you and that pretty boy teaming up to poison my wound medicine, causing my wound to fester and fester, I wouldn't have had the idea of ​​taking my place."

Lu Hongli gritted his teeth and said.

"You're unjust, so I'll be unjust too!"

Qiu Sanniang: "..."

Xiao Qingyin: "..."

She said irritably, "Explain yourself clearly. What do you mean by poisoning your wound medicine? I could poison you with a wave of my hand without arousing any suspicion. Why would I need to resort to such a clumsy method?"

Lu Hongli only realized that the woman dressed as a dowry maid was the female doctor when he heard the voice.

He sneered, "If you didn't poison me, how could my wound have worsened? If you don't believe me, tear open the clothes on my back and see if I'm lying."

Upon hearing this, a hint of guilt flashed across Qian San's eyes, which Xiao Qingyin keenly noticed.

"Are you sure the wound medicine I gave you is the same thing as the wound medicine you applied to your wound?"

She sneered.

"Don't pin the blame on us for what the mole did."

A mole?

What's the meaning?

Just as Lu Hongli was about to retort, he suddenly remembered that on the night he got the wound medicine, he and Qian San had a drinking session and got completely drunk.

Did Qian San tamper with the medicine while he was drunk?

How is that possible!

Although Qian San was someone he had only taken on in the last few months, he had once shielded him from a knife!

That knife almost severed his arm, and even after he recovered, he couldn't lift heavy objects.

But judging from how this woman rescued Qiu Sanniang without anyone noticing and then took him down in one move, it was indeed effortless for her to kill him, and there was no need for her to do anything obvious that he would see through.

Could it be that Qian San really has a problem?

Seeing the suspicious look on his face, Qian San quickly clarified, "Second Master, I would give my life for you, how could I possibly harm you? Please don't listen to outsiders' instigation."

Lu Hongli thought about it and agreed.

For these people who live on the edge, money and women are external things; life is the most important thing.

Only those with whom you've shared a life-or-death bond dare to entrust their backs.

He and Qian San had gone through so many life-and-death situations together; there was no reason for him to trust an outsider instead of his own brother.

Xiao Qingyin crossed her hands and said leisurely, "It's so easy to fake a life-saving grace. Create a crisis, then risk your life to save someone, suffer a little physical pain, and you can gain their complete trust. Don't you think so?"

As she said this, she stared intently at Qian San.

Qian San kept a straight face, but in his heart he wished he could kill her on the spot.

Lu Hongli's resolve began to waver again.

Just as Qian San was about to argue, Xiao Qingyin suddenly pinched his chin and stuffed a pill into his mouth.

“Why waste your breath here?” she laughed. “One truth pill will make everything clear.”

She handed over the main stage to Qiu San Niang.

"Ask him anything you want to know, and he will answer truthfully."

"Thanks."

Qiu Sanniang said gratefully.

She turned to Qian San and asked her first question: "Did you kill Xiao Liuzi?"

Qian San wanted to say no, but his mouth seemed to come alive and he said, "Yes."

Why kill him?

“I went out to deliver a message in the middle of the night and he saw me. I was afraid he would tell you and arouse your suspicion.”

"Was the poisonous coconut incident something you orchestrated using the mentally challenged child?"

"yes."

"Who is your master?"

"Chief Cai."
