Before the noodles and fish in the hut were eaten, a large group of people came from the village.

Although Yang Dahua behaves very badly in the village, it is a human life after all.

The people in the small mountain village are simple and honest. When something like this happened, everyone was worried all day long. When they saw a car entering the village at night, they would spontaneously come to ask about the situation.

Shi Weimin told everyone the general situation.

The patient is still not conscious. The doctor has done a gastric lavage and said that the condition has improved.

After hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as people are alive!

Unexpectedly, Shi Weiqiang, who had been sulking in the main house, came in angrily and yelled, "Big brother, you only talked about Mom's situation, why didn't you mention that Second Brother sued our Mom?"

What?

Everyone was suddenly in an uproar, and their surprised gazes shifted from Shi Weiqiang's face to Shi Zhentang's face.

Although Yang Dahua is usually a mean person, she has lived in Lao Shi's family for so many years after all.

When she married Shi De, her stepson Shi Zhentang was only five years old. After all, our relationship is one where you watch me grow up and I watch you grow old.

I won’t say how close we are, but even if you use an item at home for a long time, you will develop feelings for it, right?

How can I sue my stepmother for this?

Everyone found it unbelievable. Wasn’t the second son of the Shi family too unkind?

Shi Zhentang's expression was calm. "Yang Dahua attempted poisoning and suffered the consequences herself. If she hadn't eaten those two buns, anyone in our room could have been poisoned."

"Yes, I did contact the police, and I had to report this to the police because what she did should be punished by law. If anyone doesn't understand this, I won't force them."

The whole room fell into complete silence: "..."

After all, this information is too difficult for them to accept.

Most of the villagers think that family matters should be discussed behind closed doors. If you want to fight, just give it a try. If you want to quarrel, just quarrel loudly.

But after the quarrel and the fight, it was over.

Reporting it to the police would be too inhumane.

"Brother Shi did nothing wrong."

Later, Kong Xingbai and several other educated youth who came to Shi's house also saw the car entering the village, so they rushed over from the commune.

After they entered the house, they stood behind the villagers and heard all the conversations.

Kong Xingbai stepped forward and said seriously, "Poisoning is different from ordinary family disputes. This is illegal. Moreover, Yang Dahua targeted military dependents, which is extremely serious."

"What should we do? Dahua won't go to jail, right?"

"But Comrade Kong, we're all family, so can't we just let this go?"

"We've already called the police. How are we going to live if we keep seeing each other?"

Faced with the villagers' questions, Kong Xingbai and the literate educated youth felt speechless.

Most of them were ignorant of the law and couldn't explain it clearly at once, so they said, "If no one understands, let me give you a comparison. If Yang Dahua poisoned your family, would you rather just settle the matter as if nothing had happened, or contact the police?"

This question hits the nail on the head.

The villagers immediately felt as if they had been right to call the police, but some also felt that common sense was the main reason.

In short, after a period of discussion, no one questioned Shi Zhentang anymore.

"Brother Shi, let me take the third brother to the city early tomorrow morning!" Kong Xingbai stepped forward and said.

It turned out that when he was in the commune, he received a call from the village party secretary in the county town, saying that he was afraid that the three brothers of the Shi family would fight again, so the task of delivering the money would be left to him.

Kong Xingbai had learned to drive when he was in the city, and that skill came in handy.

It just so happened that Shi Zhentang didn't want to go to the county town again, so He Chong would follow up on the case.

He had to lead everyone to build a house before returning to the army.

I agreed: "Then please."

Then he added, "Tomorrow my family will officially start building the house. If you don't have relatives, you can come. The wages will still be paid according to the work point system set by the village party secretary."

After he finished speaking, no one said anything. Everyone was hesitant, not knowing whether they should help him anymore.

Lü Huanying saw this and couldn't help but sneer, "That's great! The villagers of Quanshui Village can't even tell right from wrong anymore. You all helped Yang Dahua poison her. Great, that's great."

Everyone suddenly looked embarrassed...

In the end, it was the Fourth Aunt who pinched her husband from behind and said, "You must come to help Zhentang build the house tomorrow."

His man was pinched so hard that he grinned: "Come on, of course."

The couple took the lead, and others followed suit.

"Zhentang, I'll come tomorrow."

"I'll come too. I have nothing to do at home anyway."

"And me."

Unexpectedly, the villagers suddenly became fence-sitters and swayed to one side. Shi Weiqiang, who was standing in the corner, could only clench his fists.

Bah, there is not a single good person in Quanshui Village!

…

Only after the villagers left did the Shi brothers have time to eat the fish noodles.

After a day of tossing and turning, the children and the old lady fell asleep on the kang.

Su Zhen boiled some hot water and asked Tian Yuzhu to bring it back to the hut. Only then did the couple have a chance to be alone.

When I woke up in the morning, the anger that made me throw my pillow had long disappeared.

In Tian Yuzhu's eyes, she saw the helplessness of Shi Zhentang, a man of integrity, when facing the villagers.

She poured him some foot-washing water and placed it in front of him who remained silent.

But just as she put down the basin, Shi Zhentang pulled her to sit down, then squatted down to test the water temperature and took off her boots: "You wash first."

Tian Yuzhu sat obediently and put her feet in the warm water. She looked at the man and saw his slightly furrowed brows, a dark light in his dark eyes, and his thin lips stretched into a straight line.

He was enduring everything, but had nowhere to vent.

"I'm not leaving."

Tian Yuzhu decided to speak out.

"What?" Shi Zhentang looked up in surprise.

He rarely heard the silly girl suddenly express herself so directly.

Tian Yuzhu's pure eyes were full of seriousness: "If I leave, they will bully grandma, so I won't go with you."

Shi Zhentang was slightly stunned. This time the silly girl explained it very clearly. He just didn't expect that she could understand this matter so thoroughly.

But from another perspective, he felt that the silly girl was getting better and better, which made him very pleased.

However, she had no say in whether to join the army.

"Yuzhu, you must come with me. Don't worry, I will take care of everything before I leave."

Shi Zhentang gave a bitter smile.

Judging from Yang Dahua's usual hostility towards the silly girl, he suspected that the other party's target was the silly girl.

And whether there is someone behind this, that depends on He Chong's investigation.

But how to deal with it?

Let’s not talk about what the villagers think of their hut. Just think about Shi Weiqiang. Who knows if he will go crazy in the future?

Tian Yuzhu fell into deep thought. Although she was a person from the new world in her previous life, she was also familiar with the laws of the post-era.

If Yang Dahua is sentenced to prison, will Shi Weiqiang and Shi Xiaoli allow people in the small house to live a good life?
