Others may not be clear about it, but Wang Guangping’s mind is as clear as a mirror.
Over the years, he was fully aware of the bad things that the brothers Wang Dalong and Wang Dahu had done in the village.
He stared at Wang Dahu and asked, "Did your brother say that if the water truck breaks down, everyone will blame Ye Lao San, and then his family will have to leave the village, so you can move back?"
Wang Dahu was still thinking that he must deny it until his death, but who knew that Wang Guangping actually guessed Wang Dalong's plan exactly.
He opened his eyes wide in surprise, looked up at Wang Guangping, and asked stupidly, "How did you know? It's the same as what my eldest brother said."
As soon as these words were spoken, the people by the river immediately became as excited as boiling water.
We have been looking for someone by the river all night, and now we are tired and sleepy. Then you tell me that the person we are looking for is the bad guy who destroyed the village waterwheel last night?
No wonder the village chief was so angry just now and said that Wang Dalong deserved to fall into the river.
Although Widow Liu knew that her youngest son was not very smart, she did not expect him to admit it so easily. She felt that something bad was going to happen.
As expected, the villagers who had been eager to help before now cast angry looks at her family.
"Everyone knows that my son Dahu has been mentally handicapped since birth. How can you believe what he says?" Widow Liu said embarrassedly.
Before she could finish her words, Wang Dahu directly interrupted her and said, "Mom, I'm not talking nonsense. That's what my brother really said last night."
Now that's good, this matter has been completely confirmed.
Widow Liu involuntarily took two steps back and hid behind Jiang.
Because at this moment the gazes of the villagers seemed to be real, making her feel as if her body was about to be pierced.
"Village chief, what should we do now?" someone asked.
"What else can I do? I'm going to Old Ye's house now and ask her third son to come over and see if this waterwheel can be repaired!"
Everyone looked at each other in surprise when they heard this. Before, everyone had doubted whether Ye Lao San could repair the waterwheel.
Even though Ye Laosan repaired the waterwheel, the Wang family members in the village actually did not feel any gratitude.
After all, in their opinion, it was Liu Quan who broke the waterwheel, and the reason why Ye Laosan stepped forward to repair the waterwheel was to help Liu Quan. The villagers didn't need to owe him a favor at all.
But now the situation is different.
The waterwheel was broken by the Wang brothers, so now we need to ask Ye Lao San to fix it...
Could Ye Lao San still be so easy to talk to? Would he ask for too much?
Seeing that no one spoke, Wang Guangping said angrily, "Don't you have any other ideas?"
His eyes swept over everyone.
Everyone he saw immediately lowered their heads.
"Then it's settled," Wang Guangping said. "I'll go find Ye Lao San right away."
He turned around and saw Widow Liu hiding behind Jiang, peeking out, and said coldly, "The cost of repairing the waterwheel this time will all be borne by Wang Dalong's family. I'll come to your house later and settle this account with you!"
After saying this, Wang Guangping left without looking back.
The other members of the Wang family were already tired and hungry, and Wang Dalong had done such a bad thing.
Who was still willing to help his family find someone here? Everyone followed Wang Guangping and left the riverside.
Widow Liu became anxious upon seeing this.
"Don't leave yet, I haven't found my dragon yet...
"My big dragon..."
Ye held her belly, her face covered with tears, and begged everyone, "Please help us, can you help us look for it again?
"My child is still young, and I'm pregnant. If anything happens to Zhengbao's father, how will we, an orphan and a widow, survive?"
Everyone had acted on this basis before, and also thought that we were all of the same race, and that we couldn’t write two characters for “king” with one stroke, so we didn’t care about anything and put finding and saving people first.
But now that he knew what Wang Dalong had done, the dissatisfaction that had been pent up in his heart could no longer be suppressed.
"We've been searching for your family all night, but your Dahu is sleeping soundly over here!"
"That's right. We've been searching all night, but your family didn't even provide us with anything to eat or even a sip of hot water.
"Whoever wants to help you can go find them, I don't care anyway."
"I still have to save my energy to carry water for the fields!"
The villagers dispersed, and soon only Widow Liu, Jiang and Wang Dahu, who still didn't know what he had done wrong, were left by the river.
At the old Ye family's side, Boss Ye had breakfast, prepared his things, and went out to hunt in the mountains.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked out of the house, I saw Wang Guangping wandering around my door. Looking at the layers of footprints on the ground, I didn't know how long he had been wandering there.
"Village chief, why are you here? What's going on?"
"Boss, I...ah, I have to trouble your third brother again!" Wang Guangping rubbed his hands awkwardly and said embarrassedly.
