Seeing that everyone in the Sun family had changed their expressions, the mute girl started to move her hands and pinched the stunned Jiang Wei.

Jiang Wei, who had reacted quickly, shouted, "Mom, Fatty Sun has been bullying Mute Sister for a long time! This morning, Mute Sister and I were together, and she still dared to bully others. I wonder if God couldn't bear it, so a snake flew up and landed on her, and she fainted. It has nothing to do with Mute Sister and me!"

As she spoke, she pulled open the mute girl's sleeve, revealing the wound on her arm that hadn't yet fully healed. "Mom, look, they bully the mute girl because she can't speak, and they beat and scold her! They are simply... worse than pigs and dogs!"

Jiang Wei racked her brains to come up with a curse word.

The mute girl never expected that Jiang Wei, who seemed not very smart on weekdays, would mix truth and lies.

I don’t know if that group of people saw that it was the snake she swung, but there’s no need to be afraid. Even if they saw it and told others about it, who would believe it?

Thinking of this, she lowered her head aggrievedly and shrank behind Jiang Wei.

Soon the discussion was endless.

"I remember my San Ya told me about this. I'm afraid it's true."

"Don't tell me, I've personally seen Fatty and a few other girls groping the mute girl before!"

"You...are committing a sin! It's fine if you didn't stop it, but why didn't you tell the mute girl's mother?"

The man paused, his face flushed red. "You didn't say anything, so why should I?"

"I didn't see it with my own eyes. What if my San Ya was just joking?"

The man knew he was in the wrong and said nothing more.

Old Lady Sun felt ashamed when she saw everyone pointing fingers at her and her son. She got angry and said, "You are the one who says everything and puts all the blame on us. How can you say that it was my fat girl who beat you up? I said it was your old woman Liu Meixiang who beat you up! She is the one who orders the dumb girl around!"

Qian Xiuzhu's hands that were pinching her waist loosened instantly, and at the same time, the breath in her heart also relaxed.

She could have cursed back with a clear conscience about anything else, but she felt guilty about this matter.

The mute girl was extremely annoyed at the moment because she could only stand there. She tugged at Jiang Wei's sleeve again, motioning her to throw the pot onto the snake's head.

It’s a pity that Jiang Wei’s mind seemed to brighten for just a moment, and now she looked at her blankly, as if her soul had been sucked out.

The mute girl didn't know that Jiang Wei was just affected by what Old Lady Sun said, just like her mother. She felt a little sad for a moment and couldn't concentrate.

The mute girl looked at her with disappointment and sighed.

When Old Lady Sun saw Qian Xiuzhu stopped talking, she immediately started to show off, like a big fat hen with high morale. "My Fatty hasn't woken up yet. If your family doesn't give us an explanation, we can forget about living in peace!"

"Didn't you hear my sister say it was a flying snake that scared Fatty? What does that have to do with my family?" Jiang Dalang said in a deep voice, "Since you can't explain it clearly, please invite the village chief and the elders of the Jiang and Sun families. If you dare to touch a hair on my family, I, Jiang Zheng, will fight you to death!"

Old Mrs. Sun choked and forgot about it.

"I heard that Pang Ya fainted? Let's find the village chief and the elders!" Old man Jiang's voice came from behind the crowd, and the onlookers immediately made way.

The village chief of Shili Village is surnamed Jiang. When the village chief was selected, there was a lot of unpleasantness between him and the Sun family. Although there are still frictions between the Jiang and Sun families, they will not easily bring the matter to the village chief unless the matter is very serious.

Everyone is dizzy about this matter right now, so it is certainly not a small matter.

Jiang Wei calmed down immediately after her elder brother and grandfather spoke up. She raised her little face and said, "It wasn't just me and my mute sister. Many people saw the snake fly! Even if the village chief came to my house, he would be right!"

Old Mrs. Sun felt a little short of breath when she met Old Man Jiang. After all, there were only two young men in Shili Village, one of whom was from him and the other from his son.

But things have come to this point, I can't back down, absolutely not, otherwise I will be so embarrassed!

"Uncle Jiang, look at what you said. Why did you bring this up with the village chief? We came here just to have the two families settle this matter properly. My daughter has been in poor health since she was a child. Now she's lying in bed motionless. It's scary! I've asked the other girls who are good friends with Pang Ya, and they all said that it was your two granddaughters who scared us, so we came here. Look..."

In the end, the blame still has to be placed on Yamei and Jiang Wei.

"Really? Then ask those people to come out and confront us. I want to see if my two sisters really have the courage to throw snakes with their bare hands?" Jiang Erlang also squeezed in from the crowd.

Old Lady Sun was talking nonsense just now. She had never asked about it at all. She just wanted to scare the Jiang family and maybe make some money. But hearing Jiang Erlang being so serious, she was put in a difficult position and felt very uncomfortable.

Seeing the guilty look on her face, the onlookers started to accuse her.

"Auntie Fatty, your Fatty did something bad, and the snake demon is taking revenge on her, right?"

"That's right, Fatty is such a grown-up girl, but she bullies everyone all day long just because her family is rich! Everyone in the surrounding villages knows that she has a bad reputation. I'm afraid she won't be able to get married!"

"I saw Fatty bullying the mute girl with my own eyes. I can even testify to this in front of the village chief!"

For a time, many people supported the Jiang family, while the Sun family became the target of public condemnation.

Sun Da saw that things were not going well, and his anger grew. He couldn't understand why other families loved their sons, but his mother loved her daughter like crazy, always requiring the brothers to follow her around to save face and clean up the mess.

My younger sister has a bad reputation. Not only is the eldest daughter who has married into another family not liked by her parents-in-law, but the daughter who is about to get married cannot find a suitable in-law.

Not only him, but his four younger brothers all thought the same. They had been a bit angry at first, but now they had lost all their temper and just stood there like pillars.

In the past, people didn't dare to provoke him because he had many brothers and his family was wealthy. This was the first time that her mother had run into a snag.

He forced an awkward laugh and spoke before his mother could, "I'm so sorry, maybe my mother misheard. My younger sister is terrified of snakes. She had an argument with your two girls and said that out of anger. Don't be offended, everyone. We'll leave now!"

"Boss—" Old Mrs. Sun shouted with a pale face, but was glared back by her eldest son.

She covered her chest and muttered words like "unfilial" and "bastard".

Jiang Erlang noticed the loophole in their words and asked with a half-smile, "Didn't your family make an agreement before you blackmailed me? Fatty Sun hasn't woken up yet, so how could she still be talking? Since you're here to blackmail me, do you really think my Jiang family can come and go as they please?"

"If you don't make things clear today, don't even think about leaving my Jiang family!" Jiang Dalang blocked the gate with a carrying pole.
