Chapter 75 He's getting anxious
"We'll know when the police arrive."
Aunt Yang was in a lot of pain, and she couldn't help but grimace as she spoke. Seeing that she was in so much pain but didn't dare to cry out, Xin Li said directly, "Don't hold it in, just say it hurts."
Aunt Yang shook her head and said, "Forget it, my injuries aren't serious. They'll be fine in a few days. Xin Xin, don't worry about it."
“Let’s think about what to say later. Uncle Shi and his men are not easy to mess with. I’ve always known they’re ruthless, but I really didn’t expect them to do something like this.”
"If we hadn't encountered their rat poison incident and had unknowingly eaten that food, I really don't want to imagine what would have happened..."
It's one thing for Aunt Yang to be a family member, but after all, Uncle Shi and his people are also here to cause trouble for their family. They say that if it's a blessing in disguise, it's a curse; if it's a curse, you can't escape it. The fact that Uncle Shi and his people are so audacious as to poison them is clearly aimed at them.
Those people should never have targeted Xin Li.
If something were to happen to Xinli here today, Aunt Yang would regret it for the rest of her life.
Mingming Xinli was just coming to her house for a meal, and she only invited her over to show goodwill. If this resulted in the death of a young woman who had just gotten married, then Aunt Yang would not be able to rest in peace even in the underworld.
Moreover, we owe today's events to You Xinli.
Otherwise, it would be too difficult for them to subdue Uncle Shi.
Unexpectedly, Xin Li, who looks like a young girl, is so capable and efficient, and more composed than her older self.
“Aunt Yang, don’t try to take the blame on yourself. Those people are the ones who are malicious. It has nothing to do with you.”
“If it wasn’t you today, it would have been someone else. We should be glad that we caught Uncle Shi and his gang red-handed. In the past, they were domineering and the neighbors would let it go out of consideration for everyone. But now they’ve become so vicious that they’ve even used rat poison. Just you wait and see. Even if we don’t pursue this, someone else will.”
As if to confirm Xinli's words, a commotion arose downstairs.
"Aunt Yang! Xin Xin, where are you?"
"Are you alright?"
"Why is there no one down there? Has something happened?"
Amidst the chattering voices, Xinli quickly helped Aunt Yang downstairs.
Zhang Jinhua, who was in the lead, was overjoyed to see the two of them come down: "Thank goodness, thank goodness you're alright!"
"Why is Aunt Yang in such a sorry state? Should we take her to the clinic?"
People who knew them rushed forward and surrounded Aunt Yang and Xin Li.
Xinli quickly offered a brief explanation.
Zhang Jinhua breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that they were all alright.
“We’ve heard everything from Xiaohua. That Uncle Shi is really vicious. We all live on the same island, and he still managed to do something so cruel. Luckily, you were alert and didn’t eat those things, otherwise it could have caused a disaster!”
"Don't worry, the evidence is conclusive now. Uncle Shi and his men can't escape no matter what. There are so many people on our island who can testify for you. You will definitely be fine."
Aunt Yang's eyes filled with tears.
Thank you everyone.
"Thank you so much."
Zhang Jinhua touched Aunt Yang's face with heartache: "Look at what you're saying. We're all family. Are you suggesting we help those bad people?"
“Uncle Shi has done something that threatens the personal safety of the islanders this time, so I’m afraid he can’t stay on the island anymore. From now on, you don’t have to worry about being retaliated against anymore, and your family can live a good life.”
Aunt Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
She wasn't afraid of anything else, but she was worried that Uncle Shi would cause some more trouble after he went to jail.
After all, having to be on guard against retaliation every day is a kind of psychological torture.
Fortunately, Zhang Jinhua said those words, and she was finally able to put her mind at ease.
He Mingzhou soon arrived with his troops.
Are you alright?
Upon seeing Xin Li, He Mingzhou went straight to her.
Everyone else laughed when they saw this.
Some people openly teased the young couple: "This is the first time I've seen Xiao He so anxious. He's definitely a different person now that he has a wife."
"Xiao He is quite considerate now."
He Mingzhou felt a little uncomfortable upon hearing this, but he still didn't let go of Xin Li's hand.
Xin Li, eager to protect her husband, pulled He Mingzhou to her side and said, "Auntie, my Mingzhou is shy. You can say these things to me from now on. I love to hear them."
The others burst out laughing when they heard this.
"Alright, alright, we all love hearing this from Xinxin, so let's say it to her more often from now on."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
After such a horrific incident, the fact that everyone can still laugh is quite remarkable; they're all finding joy in hardship, and their attitudes are remarkably positive.
When the division commander heard about the incident, he came over in person. Seeing that the victims had been comforted and were even in a relatively calm mood, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The island had just been hit by a typhoon and torrential rain, and it was a difficult time. I never expected that such a bad person would come along and dare to poison someone else's house in broad daylight for his own personal grudge.
This was truly outrageous. The division commander was furious and demanded that the police officers at the local station conduct a thorough investigation.
This was the first time the police officers at the local station had handled a case like this.
We've lived together on the island for so many years. Although we've had occasional arguments and some lost property, chickens, or ducks, these are all minor issues. Neighborly friction is inevitable.
So no one took it too seriously.
No one expected that such a terrible thing would happen at this critical juncture when everything is in need of rebuilding.
Everyone felt sorry for him and was furious. It was fortunate that Uncle Shi and his gang were detained, otherwise they would have been riddled with rotten eggs by everyone.
"Aunt Yang, you should stay at Sister Lu's house tonight."
"The child is frightened, so we need to comfort him properly. This is not a trivial matter; it would be bad if he developed any health problems later."
Aunt Yang knew the seriousness of the matter. Xiao Hua had seen her being beaten today and must have been terrified, so she nodded in agreement.
Xin Li personally accompanied Aunt Yang to Zhang Jinhua's house to settle her in before leaving.
As soon as he stepped outside, he saw He Mingzhou waiting for him.
Xinli walked over with a smile: "Are you that worried about me?"
He Mingzhou's eyes were practically glued to her.
He Mingzhou took her hand and led her home.
"kindness."
"When I heard that someone had poisoned you with rat poison, my heart skipped a beat. I was so afraid something would happen to you."
Xin Li smiled and said, "Where is it so easy for something to go wrong?"
She has a spatial ability to protect her, and even if things get really bad, they're not stupid. Do you think they'd be foolish enough to eat those things after discovering someone poisoned them?
"Don't go out for meals anymore. Just stay home and I'll cook whatever you want to eat."
Xin Li rolled her eyes at He Mingzhou: "Is that something you should be saying?"
"You should get up where you fell down. I'd be bored to death if I stayed home all the time."
