Zhou Hongbing's wife had just finished comforting the child when she heard this. She immediately perked up her ears and heard another male voice say, "How else could you know? Of course, you just happened to see it."

"So what do we do now? Should we tell his wife? And whose house did he steal from?"

"The family that lives three streets away from us, with a big jujube tree in front of their house, that jujube tree is the biggest in our commune, it's very noticeable."

"Shall we continue talking?"

"Forget it! Let's go back! It's a family matter after all, let's not make things difficult for ourselves."

Zhou Hongbing's wife wanted to hear more, but Gu An'an stopped using her supernatural powers and left.

Of course, she didn't place all her hopes on Zhou Hongbing's wife. These days, most women choose to endure for the sake of their families.

Back at the original spot, the battle had already begun. Gu An'an climbed over the wall and entered, opening the courtyard gate from the inside. She then grabbed a handful of stones and started smashing them against the window, shouting as she did so, "Someone's cheating! Someone's cheating! Someone's having an affair at the house by the jujube tree!"

It wasn't too late yet. Some people were busy inside, while some young couples were lying in bed, ready to have a long talk about their life goals. Hearing this commotion, they all perked up and went out to check what was going on.

It's not that they're gossiping; it's just that these days, without cell phones or computers, it's rare to have something exciting to watch, so they have to come out in droves.

When we got there, oh my! The door wasn't even closed, and we could hear sounds coming from inside that made our hearts race. They were way too impatient.

A group of people rushed straight in, giving Zhou Hongbing no chance to react. The two of them hadn't expected the door to be opened, let alone that someone would suddenly rush in, and the door wasn't even locked.

"ah!"

The woman grabbed a blanket and covered herself with it, or whatever she could grab and put on clothes, not caring whether they were hers or not.

Zhou Hongbing knew he was doomed the moment the crowd rushed in. His face was still recognizable in the commune. He was about to cover his face with the blanket when the woman beat him to it.

By the time he tried to cover his face with his clothes, it was too late.

"Hey! Isn't that Zhou Hongbing?"

"It really is true. Doesn't he have a wife and children? What's he doing here?"

"Is that even a question? He's having an affair! And his wife praises him every day. Ugh! Shameless! Scumbag!"

"Arrest them! Send them to the disciplinary squad."

When Zhou Hongbing's wife arrived, she saw her husband and another woman being led away in disheveled clothes. Enraged, she immediately started beating them without saying a word.

Both of them were being controlled and could only passively wait for the other to vent. "Wife, listen to me."

"Shut up, you little brat! I take care of the whole family at home every day, and I'm so worried that you'll be tired from working overtime that I give you all the best food. Is this how you repay me?"

"And you, you slut, you'll touch anyone, you must be really hungry."

The woman had been hit several times and was in great pain.

"Sister, I really didn't know he was married."

Zhou Hongbing's wife sneered, "Don't know? Do you think I'd believe that? Or do you think I'm a fool?"

Although Zhou Hongbing wasn't a big shot, the commune was only so big. If he insisted he didn't know him, he would definitely be lying through his teeth.

She didn't show favoritism to anyone; it takes two to tango in this kind of situation.

Since that's the case, then of course we should slap each person equally, without showing favoritism.

Seeing this, Gu An'an left satisfied.

Don't say that Zhou Hongbing was just doing it for work; isn't that going too far?

Gu An'an didn't believe Zhou Hongbing was unaware of Zhou Dong's intentions, but he still agreed and even let Zhou Dong go to Xiaowang Village with him, so he wouldn't feel wronged.

Besides, if he didn't do such a thing himself, how could she have caught the other party red-handed?

She didn't go directly back to Xiaowang Village, but instead took a detour to the other end of the commune. When she arrived, Zhou Dong hadn't gone home yet.

Gu An'an wasn't in a hurry. She simply climbed up a tree near his house, half-lying on the trunk while eating and waiting.

After she had finished half a roast chicken, two bags of potato chips, and a bottle of soda, Zhou Dong finally staggered back.

Judging from his swaying gait, it's obvious he'd had quite a bit to drink.

Just as Zhou Dong was swaying as he reached for his keys, Gu An'an silently climbed down from the tree, approached him, and delivered a karate chop to the back of Zhou Dong's head.

Before Zhou Dong could even utter a sound, he collapsed to the ground.

Gu An'an dragged Zhou Dong to the side of a big tree, then stripped him down to only his underwear, and took out a thick hemp rope from her spatial storage to tie him up.

In this kind of weather, freezing for one night certainly won't kill you, but you'll definitely suffer.

After finishing all that, Gu An'an rode her bicycle back to Xiaowang Village. It wasn't even midnight when she arrived at the courtyard.

The next day.

When Zhou Yue left, her hair was messy and she yawned from time to time. Looking at the energetic Gu An'an, her eyes were full of envy.

"An'an, how come you have so much energy every day? I'm always feeling dazed."

"I think you've been sleeping too much."

Zhou Yue retorted, "How could that be! I clearly slept with you."

Gu An'an didn't refute, and a beautiful smile appeared on her lips.

If you say so, then so be it.

Even after what happened the day before, Gu An'an still went to work as usual.

The quality control of pine nuts is more complicated than before. In addition to her, there is also Zhang Cuicui, who keeps an eye on her from time to time.

"Sister-in-law, you're staring at my face so hard it's like you're going to make my skin crawl."

Zhang Cuicui was caught red-handed and cleared her throat sheepishly, "An'an, are you alright?"

Gu An'an chuckled and said, "What could possibly happen? If I were affected by this, wouldn't that just let them succeed?"

Hearing her say that, Zhang Cuicui finally felt relieved. "Yes, we can't let those people get away with it. Don't worry! My father-in-law has already gone to the commune to complain. He'll definitely make those people from yesterday regret it."

Zhang Cuicui had a lot of faith in her father-in-law. Back when the brigade didn't have tractors, her father-in-law went to the commune to make a scene and get his wish in order to ensure a successful autumn harvest. He managed to harvest all the grain before the rain.

Fearing that Gu An'an wouldn't believe it, Zhang Cuicui also explained the village chief's great achievements to her, broadening Gu An'an's horizons.

"Uncle is truly a man of few words."

Although the other party might not be able to fulfill their wish this time, Gu An'an was still very touched.

Zhang Cuicui said with pride, "Otherwise, how could our village be so united? My father-in-law and the Party Secretary are both good leaders who wholeheartedly care about the village, unlike my family's..."

While the two were chatting happily, the village chief arrived at the commune. As soon as he entered the secretary's office, the village chief tried to put on an act, but was stopped by the commune secretary.

"Old Wang, please spare me!"
