The charcoal that was kicked and scattered on the ground outside was still red. Yang Donghu straightened the stove and picked up the charcoal one by one with tongs.

He threw the handkerchief into the stove and watched as the flames started and it was consumed by the flames until it turned into a pile of ashes.

After Yang Chunxiao came out, he glanced into the room and saw Li Shangcai lying on the ground like a dead dog, motionless, with a faint trace of blood on his forehead.

"He..." Yang Chunxiao pointed into the room and asked, "Is he dead?"

Yang Donghu shook his head and stirred the food in the stove with tongs. "No, I just fainted."

It was not a good thing for Li Shangcai to stay in the old lady's room all the time, so the two of them worked together to drag him to Li Shangcai's own room. Yang Donghu swapped the stool in the old lady's room that was stained with Li Shangcai's blood with the stool in his room.

With Li Shangcai's vengeful character, he will definitely attack Yang Donghu after waking up.

But Yang Donghu was not afraid at all. Although Li Shangcai had the Zhang family as a strong backer, he had heard a lot from the shopkeeper when he was selling peach blossom cakes in the town that the head of the Zhang family was quite upright. Yang Donghu didn't know what kind of person his step-wife was.

However, since Li Shangcai did not dare to act arrogantly in the town, nor did he dare to use the name of the Zhang Mansion to cheat people outside, and only dared to do some unknown things in secret, it can be seen that the head of the Zhang Mansion probably would not go along with Li Shangcai.

Outsiders gave him some face only because of his sister. No one with a bit of backbone would be willing to be friends with him behind his back. Only someone as stupid as a pig, who loves money and sex and has no vision, would be deceived.

Besides, Li Shangcai was already despised for being obsessed with someone else's wife. Even if he was reported to the authorities, he would be sentenced to exile at the very least, and in more serious cases, he could be imprisoned for life or even beaten to death.

If this matter gets out of hand, even if he has a sister who married into a wealthy family, it will be difficult to protect him.

The door was locked from the outside and could not be opened from inside. Yang Chunxiao tried several times but failed, so he pulled Yang Donghu to the dog hole covered by weeds.

"Now that there's a stranger in the house, it's not appropriate for you, a man who's no longer related to the Yang family, to stay here. Someone must have seen you when you came. Li Shangcai is injured, and he'll definitely make a scene when he wakes up. If you're still here then, you won't be able to explain yourself. Now that no one knows Li Shangcai is here, leave quickly and find somewhere with people around. As long as you can prove that you weren't at the Yang family during the day, that'll be enough. Hurry, leave."

As she spoke, she dragged Yang Donghu into the dog hole.

Yang Donghu struggled for a moment and asked, "What about you?"

"Don't worry about me, I know what's going on. Wang Dujuan isn't home. She's leaving such a great show unattended. Guess what she's been up to? Hurry up, or she'll be back with a bunch of people and you won't be able to leave."

Yang Donghu thanked her gratefully, bent down and tried to crawl out of the dog hole.

But the dog hole was too small, and even though Yang Donghu was thin, half of his body was stuck in it.

He stepped out and shook his head: "No, we can't get out."

Yang Chunxiao was anxious. He looked around and ran back to the house to bring out a wooden stool: "Step on this and climb over the wall to get out."

There was no better way, so Yang Donghu didn't hesitate. He stepped on the stool, exerted force on his wrists, and sat on the wall.

He lowered his head and looked at Yang Chunxiao, who was standing at the foot of the wall and looked extremely thin, and said, "When the dust settles, I will agree to any request you make."

Yang Chunxiao looked up at him and smiled faintly: "Thank you."

The top of the wall didn't look high, but it was still a bit scary when sitting on it and looking down. Yang Donghu plucked up the courage to jump down. The moment he landed, he felt a piercing pain in his ankle.

"Ah." Yang Donghu couldn't help but cry out in pain.

Yang Chunxiao's voice came from the yard, a little anxious: "What happened? Did you fall?"

"I'm fine, I just twisted it a little."

Yang Donghu took a long time to relax before slowly standing up. He touched his ankle and the pain was not that unbearable. It should be just a sprain and no injuries to the bones.

He walked out holding onto the wall, taking every step carefully. The pain in his feet reminded him of the grievance in his heart, and his eyes became red unconsciously when he thought of Zhao Luochuan.

He didn't know if he was really angry with him. He hadn't seen him since he left early in the morning. Thinking this, Yang Donghu walked slowly forward. His home was too far away, so he planned to stay at Yang Anjin's house for a while.

If Zhao Luochuan knew that Yang Donghu had injured his foot, he would have taken him back regardless of anything else. However, as soon as Yang Donghu entered, Wang Dujuan sneaked out of the door.

Not long after that, Yang Yaoguang also secretly locked the door of the Yang family. The two extremely evil-hearted people in the family went out. He felt suspicious, so he quietly followed Yang Yaoguang, found a deserted place, knocked him unconscious with a palm, and hid.

Anyway, this guy can't do anything good. Whenever Zhao Luochuan thinks of the suffering Yang Donghu had endured in the past, he wishes he could beat the Yang family to death.

Matters involving human life cannot be handled impulsively. Zhao Luochuan was resentful and his actions became rough. He threw the man under a tree and then searched Yang Yaoguang's body and found a small bag of unknown medicinal powder.

This thing smelled of a strange fragrance and didn't seem like a good thing. Zhao Luochuan had been in the town for a long time and had heard some dirty things. Looking at the thing in his hand, he felt a little uneasy.

They randomly pulled out a few tough vines, tied the man up tightly, and threw him into the dense grass. There was no sign of anything unusual from the outside.

Zhao Luochuan returned to the Yang family again. This time he did not hide aside, but jumped onto the roof. The yard was still quiet, with only faint groans.
