The shadowy figure stealthily approached the well, took out a package containing something, and poured it directly into the well...

"Coo coo coo!"

"Croak, croak!"

"twitter!"

All the animals in the yard started yelling wildly, and soon the cats and dogs around also heard it and started yelling wildly as well.

The Shen family was instantly awakened.

The shadowy figure seemed startled and hurriedly darted towards the wall, trying to return the way it came.

But as soon as it climbed onto the wall, a bird appeared out of nowhere and pecked the shadowy figure's hand several times.

Caught off guard, the shadowy figure cried out in pain twice before collapsing to the ground.

"ah!"

With a scream, Shen Yishan, Shen Erming, Shen Wanli and others rushed out.

"who!"

"Boss, go light the lamp. Second and third brothers, come with me and subdue him!"

The commotion at the Shen family's house quickly woke up the neighbors.

Shen Erming stepped forward and grabbed the other man's arm in the dark, rendering him unable to move.

"Waaaaah, let me go! Ouch! My arm is going to fall off!" the dark figure screamed in agony.

That sound...

Shen Erming leaned over to take a look with some suspicion, and immediately became furious.

"Tian Yelai???"

Tian Yelai is Tian Yexiang's younger brother!

Looking at his "brother-in-law," Shen Erming was furious. He tightened his grip even more and asked through gritted teeth, "Tell me, what are you doing at my house?"

"Mother..." Inside the room, Shen Liuliu, still half asleep, nestled in her mother's arms and whispered, "Well."

The voice was muffled and unclear, and Shen Tiantian couldn't hear it clearly.

But Tian Guifen heard it all clearly!

"It's okay, Sweetie. You and your sister can go back to sleep." Tian Guifen comforted her daughter, put Liu Liu down, tucked Sweetie in, and then left.

Wearing a coat, Tian Guifen went straight to the well and called to her third brother, "Third brother, fetch a bucket of water."

Shen Sanlin: ? ? ?

What are you doing fetching water in the middle of the night?

However, Shen Sanlin did not ask any questions, but immediately went to fetch water obediently.

"Tell me, what exactly did you come here for?"

"Ouch! It hurts! It hurts!"

From the next courtyard came Aunt Wang's questioning voice: "Wanli, what happened?"

The commotion was so loud, it felt like all the cats and dogs on the street were barking, and it woke the person up.

Adding to the chilling atmosphere was the sound of screams, especially in the middle of the night.

"It's Tian Yelai. I don't know what's wrong with that kid. He suddenly showed up at my house, sneaking around like that. I don't know what he's up to!"

Shen Wanli said with a dark face.

After something like this happened, what else could Tian Ye come here for?

They're definitely here to cause trouble!

I just don't know what he's trying to do.

"Mother, the water has been brought up," Shen Sanlin said.

With a cold face, Tian Guifen ordered, "Give Tian Ye a drink."

Shen Sanlin: ? ? ?

What exactly does Mother want to do?

"No, I won't drink it!"

Tian Yelai objected vehemently, his legs trembling, wishing he could disappear into a crack in the ground, but to his dismay, he couldn't find one!

"Not drinking? That's not up to you!" Shen Erming narrowed his eyes and immediately understood what was going on.

As soon as Shen Sanlin brought the bucket over, Shen Erming immediately pressed Tian Yelai's head down and forced it into the bucket...

"Gulp gurgle..."

"Um, I don't..."

Tian Yelai held her breath desperately, afraid that she might swallow even a little bit of water!

Shen Wanli understood what was going on, glanced at his son, and said in a deep voice, "Erming, be mindful of your behavior."

If there's really something wrong with the water, they won't be able to escape if something happens to Tian Ye.

It's not worth it.

"Wanli, open the door."

Wang Da Niang's voice rang out from outside the door.

Aunt Wang straightened her clothes and sighed, "I don't know what's wrong with Tian Yelai."

"What else could it be? They must be here for revenge. What kind of people are they?" the neighbor across the hall complained.

The dog was barking so loudly late at night that it scared his daughter to tears.

After opening the door, Shen Yishan immediately apologized to everyone: "I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to disturb you all, but... we really didn't expect this. Sigh!"

A sigh expressed the Shen family's helplessness.

Aunt Wang, being kind-hearted, quickly comforted him, saying, "Yishan, listen to me, don't take it to heart. Who told your family to have such a vicious in-law family? What can we do?"

"That's right, let's see what Tian Yelai is up to."

The neighbors followed them into the courtyard.

In the courtyard, Tian Yelai was kneeling there, bound hand and foot. Around him were torches that the Shen family had just lit, and in the bright firelight, Tian Yelai's distorted and frightened expression was visible.

Water droplets dripped down his disheveled body, soaking him completely.

You can even faintly smell a urine odor.

Aunt Wang exclaimed, "Oh dear!" and asked, "What on earth is going on?"

"This kid sneaked into my house and put poison in my well! I don't know what kind of poison it is, but he refused to drink it no matter what I asked him to, so it must be something bad."

Shen Erming's face was gloomy, and while he was extremely annoyed, he also felt a deep sense of self-reproach.

If it weren't for his insistence on marrying that woman, his family wouldn't have suffered these undeserved calamities!

Luckily, the animals noticed and cried out, waking everyone up!

Even more fortunately, my sister can understand what the animals are saying, so she knew that the bastard had thrown something into the well.

Otherwise, who would have thought of that?

If everyone drinks water and eats breakfast the next morning, won't it all be over by then?

Thinking of this, Shen Erming raised his foot and kicked the other man hard in the chest, cursing viciously, "You beast, worse than a pig or a dog! Go keep your mother and sister company!"

"Tian Yelai, you're such a scoundrel! You actually poisoned the well?"

The neighbors were all surprised.

Even if there are conflicts between neighbors, at most they'll just have a fight. I've never heard of such underhanded tactics before!

"You really are your mother's son! Bah!"

She's practically a descendant of the Hotan lady!

Shen Wanli cupped his hands in apology to everyone, saying, "I'm so sorry for waking you all up so late... Tomorrow morning, I'll take this scum to the county government."

"No! I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, please forgive me this time. Uncle Shen, our two families are related by marriage."

"You motherfucker! I think you want my family to become your ghost relatives!"

Shen Erming kicked him again, making the other person vomit blood.

Aunt Wang quickly pulled back the enraged Shen Erming, groaning, "Erming, you'd better watch yourself! If something really happens, you'll have to pay with your life. It's not worth it. Just take him to the authorities."

Aunt Wang said, "This kind of person, who can poison an entire family if they don't get their way, can't be allowed to live in our village. Who knows who he might poison next?"

Everyone nodded in agreement after hearing what Aunt Wang said, and they all cursed Tian Yelai.

This kind of scoundrel must not be allowed to live!

"Okay, let's do it this way. Tie him up so he can't escape, we'll talk about it tomorrow morning."

Then everyone dispersed.

The Shen family tied Tian Yelai to the tree, and after securing her, they went to sleep.

However, Shen Wanli and Tian Guifen had trouble sleeping.

The elderly couple were somewhat worried.

"You mean this has happened again and again? Now the Tian family only has Tanaka Kei left. Will they do it again?"

Shen Wanli was filled with worry.

There are always thieves, but no one can always guard against thieves.

Tian Guifen got up, rummaged through her money pouch, counted the silver by the moonlight, hid it, and lay down.

"Tomorrow, take the silver to the village chief and ask him to drive Tanaka Kei out of Lotus Village."

She has to think about her family.

Shen Wanli nodded: "Okay."

That's the only way.
