Chapter 16 Don't Try to Blackmail Me

Lu Xiao's words were very serious, but Hu Lili was not a three-year-old child and could not understand what he meant.

Burning medicinal herbs is nothing compared to the crime of murder.

Once it is discovered that she has the intention to murder, she will be in big trouble.

Hu Lili's legs went limp and she fell to the ground. "No, no, I didn't."

She just wanted to destroy Su Tang's medicinal herbs so that she couldn't win people's hearts.

How could she dare to do something like killing someone?

"Hu Lili, come with us."

The inspector went straight over and helped Hu Lili up. Hu Lili was so frightened that she couldn't utter a word.

I just stood there in a daze and was dragged away.

The pointing and talking of people around her made Hu Lili lose the energy to explain anything.

After Hu Lili was taken away, Su Tang assured everyone that she would find alternative herbs as soon as possible.

Since you haven't used that thing before, no one will say anything.

But after using it, you still think it is useful, and now it is gone, so no one will accept it.

Fortunately, everyone can listen to Su Tang when he speaks now.

After complaining a few words, he left.

Su Tang sat in the yard, looking at the pile of medicinal herbs that had been burned to ashes, and sighed helplessly.

"Lu Xiao, this is all your debt of love."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Xiao covered her mouth with his hand.

"If someone else hears this kind of talk, it will be fatal."

Su Tang raised her head and blinked her innocent big eyes. In her clear eyes, the only thing she could see was Lu Xiao leaning over.

He saw a little version of himself in her eyes.

"You know Hu Lili's identity. I think she'll be dealt with leniently. You should be mentally prepared."

Lu Xiao's words were rather tactful, but Su Tang could also understand the meaning behind his words.

In this situation, only property damage was caused, and Su Tang's personal safety was not threatened.

Therefore, Lu Xiao felt that Hu Lili would most likely pay compensation and make a self-criticism at the meeting.

Jail is unlikely.

Su Tang nodded to show that she understood. Seeing Lu Xiao's expression, she leaned forward and asked, "Am I really so petty in your heart?"

Lu Xiao felt that his cold face was quite intimidating.

I don't know why, but when it comes to Su Tang, it's completely useless.

I originally thought that these capitalist ladies were as delicate as water and couldn't stand up to any hardship.

But Su Tang was completely different from what he thought.

She is bright and outgoing, but her occasional temper is not annoying.

"No, you misunderstood."

Lu Xiao blushed and stood up and stood aside.

Su Tang looked at him like this and smiled even more brightly.

Simple men are really easy to tease.

Hu Jianjun found Su Tang on the evening of the third day after Hu Lili was taken away.

At that time, Su Tang was sorting freshly picked dandelions and plantains in the yard.

These wild grasses that can be found everywhere in the northwestern mountains are now regarded as treasures by her.

Aunt Wang said that there are patches of kudzu growing on the shady slopes of the back mountain, and its effect in clearing away heat and detoxifying is no worse than mint.

Su Tang was planning to try his luck before dawn tomorrow.

As for those irreplaceable Chinese medicinal materials, Su Tang asked Lu Xiao to help contact someone who could buy them from the provincial capital.

Lu Xiao said that she was losing money doing these things and was afraid that she would lose money.

Su Tang pointed to the things at home and said that she had exchanged those medicine bags for many things.

Some of them are not available at service stations.

More importantly, Su Tang now has a good relationship with everyone.

Although some people don't have that much feeling towards Su Tang, they are finally not opposed to him.

This is the best thing for Su Tang.

If their attitude changes, she will be able to live more comfortably in the family compound.

"Comrade Su, Comrade Su."

Hu Jianjun's voice came from outside the courtyard gate, with deliberate urgency.

When he pushed open the door, he was holding an oil-stained enamel pot in his hand, and it was obvious that he came directly from the cafeteria.

Su Tang straightened up and glanced at Hu Jianjun's stiff smile.

At this moment, his back was hunched, like an eggplant hit by frost.

"Comrade Hu, what's up?"

She wiped the grass juice off her hands and looked at Hu Jianjun.

No one comes to the temple for no reason. Who else could he be so attentive to at this time except Hu Lili?

Hu Jianjun coughed twice and placed the enamel pot on the stone table: "Comrade Su, please be magnanimous about my sister's matter..."

He suddenly fell to his knees and Su Tang didn't even react.

Hu Jianjun continued, "She's young and naive. Just treat it as a bite from a mad dog. Don't take it personally!"

Su Tang took a half step back to avoid his hand.

"Hu Jianjun, what are you doing? Let's talk it over."

"Comrade Su, I kowtow to you, I kowtow to you, I beg you to be magnanimous."

Hu Jianjun kowtowed loudly, and blood soon seeped out of his forehead.

"If she goes to jail, how can I face my parents? Before they died, they hoped that she would marry a good family..."

Seeing Hu Jianjun like this, the people from the family compound who came to watch looked down on Su Tang again.

They said, can this young lady just calm down?

When someone burned her things, she forced the other person's brother to kneel down and apologize.

How cruel.

"Hu Jianjun, I wasn't the one who took Hu Lili away, and I'm not the one you should be looking for."

"She was jealous and burned my things."

Su Tang's attitude was not condescending, but the prejudice in people's hearts was as huge as a mountain.

Even if she is the victim, they will only think it is her fault.

"You can ask Doctor Zhang to check the value of my herbs. She burned more than just the herbs. She also burned my hard work."

Isn’t it just a comparison of misery?

Their medical students are also good at performing.

As he spoke, Su Tang covered his face with his hands, looking very sad.

"I came to the Northwest just to live a good life with Lu Xiao. I never took the initiative to provoke Hu Lili."

"It has always been Hu Lili who has bullied me."

Su Tang didn't cry loudly, but just covered his face and shrugged his shoulders.

Zhang Cui couldn't bear to see this, so she went up to hold Su Tang back and said, "People have sharp eyes. If anyone can't tell right from wrong, they should donate their eyes to others."

When everyone heard Zhang Cui's words, they all stepped back.

Aunt Wang stepped forward, took a quick look and said, "Xiao Su is a good child. You can't buy the herbs she has outside."

"They never care about gains and losses. What they exchange with everyone are just everyday things. Didn't you get any benefits from them?"

After saying this, Aunt Wang looked at Hu Jianjun, who was kneeling on the ground, with a cold look in her eyes: "It doesn't mean that whoever is weak is right."

No one is stupid. Hu Jianjun is doing this because he thinks that everyone has not changed their opinion of Su Tang and wants everyone to speak up for him.

I feel that people from the city are all thin-skinned, and maybe I can make Hu Lili suffer less.

"Sister Zhang Cui, Aunt Wang, thank you for speaking up for me."

"In this case, I will not participate in the decision-making of this matter. I believe that with the inspector here, I will definitely be able to give me a satisfactory answer."
