Looking at his handsome features and the tenderness in his eyes, Jiang Tangtang felt a surge of sweetness in her heart. As if bewitched, she actually opened her mouth and drank the Chinese medicine that she hated most in her life.
Seeing the two of them being all lovey-dovey and completely ignoring her, Lu Cuilan was furious. But besides crying and accusing Lu Shiyan of being heartless and trying to morally blackmail him, she had no other options.
But Lu Shiyan wouldn't have any of her tricks, so she had no choice but to ask others for help, hoping that other villagers would help her search for her son in the mountains.
However, she doesn't get along well with the villagers, and now she has offended both the Song and Lu families, so no one is willing to help her.
She could only drag Fang Mulin along, gritting her teeth as they walked into the mountains.
The two had only been in the mountains for a short while when they were terrified by the roars of wild beasts and ran back in a panic. They then clung to Lu Shiyan again, wanting him to go into the mountains to find someone.
After the two pleaded for a while, Lu Shiyan looked at them coldly and said, "It's not impossible for me to go into the mountains to find someone. But you have to explain in front of the villagers how you harmed my son."
I demand that you not hide a single word from me. If you conceal even the slightest detail, I will not go into the mountains to help you find people.
Lu Cuilan initially tried to argue, stubbornly refusing to admit that she had harmed Lu Chenyan.
But as time went by, the wild beasts in the forest howled more and more fiercely, and Fang Mulin could no longer hold on.
He pointed at Lu Cuilan and said, "It has nothing to do with me or my Mingming. It's all because she resented you for not saving Mingming and pushed your son into the river. If you want revenge, go find her and give my son back."
Seeing that her husband completely disregarded her life and death and pushed all the blame onto her, Lu Cuilan felt that all the light in her heart had been extinguished.
She reached out and grabbed his face: "I must have been blind back then to be fooled by your appearance."
You coward, you did it but won't admit it. I only pushed someone into the river, what did you do? You threw stones into the river, what you did was a thousand times more vicious than me.”
"You're the one who bewitched me! You said you'd kill him to avoid future trouble, that's why I threw the stone. You fickle, wicked woman, if that old hag from the Jia family were good-looking, you would have run off with him long ago, wouldn't you?"
Fang Mulin was enraged when Lu Cuilan scratched off a piece of skin on his face. He pushed her down, straddled her, and started whipping her.
The two fought so fiercely that they completely lost their minds and revealed all the bad things they had done in the past.
"So what if he's old and ugly? At least he's better than you, a good-for-nothing with nothing but a pretty face. When I sleep with that old bastard, at least I bring things home, which is better than you. You even pay extra when you sleep with Zhu Sanmao's wife."
I know what you were up to. You thought I couldn't have children, so you wanted to find a fertile partner to see if other women could conceive. But it turns out Zhu Sanmao's wife also had a litter of daughters.
Lu Cuilan lay on the ground, laughing and crying at the same time, saying, "If she had given birth to a boy, you probably wouldn't have cared about my Mingming at all, would you?"
The villagers of Dawancun, who were watching the commotion from the sidelines, were all stunned.
Is this really that explosive?
Lu Cuilan had an affair with her former employer when she worked in the city. Did Fang Mulin sleep with his own sister-in-law's younger brother's wife?
This is really a mess.
Zhu Dong'e went berserk, lunging forward and grabbing Lu Cuilan, saying, "Is what you're saying true? My brother's daughters aren't his biological children, they're bastards from outside?"
Lu Cuilan said, "Whether it's true or not, just think about what your brother's daughters look like and you'll know."
Thinking of her nieces' appearances, Zhu Dong'e became furious and grabbed a stick to beat Fang Mulin.
"You don't even care about your own brother, why are you meddling in other people's business?" Fang Mulin, relying on his male advantage, was able to pin Lu Cuilan to the ground. But now, with Zhu Dong'e joining in, he suddenly found it difficult.
As he dodged, he shouted, "Your brother is a eunuch. His penis is less than an inch long. Xiuying was still a virgin a few years after marrying your brother. If I hadn't helped him, your brother would have been drowned in the spittle of the village long ago."
"You shameless bastard, you stole my sister-in-law and you still have the nerve to act all high and mighty!" Zhu Dong'e ignored Fang Mulin's words and just kept hitting him hard with a stick.
After the fight, all three of them had injuries, big and small. Lu Cuilan wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and said to Lu Shiyan, "Are you satisfied now that our family has turned into this mess? Are you willing to hand over your cousin?"
"I never hid him away." Lu Shiyan remained aloof, as if the earlier commotion had nothing to do with him.
"Where is he? Go and find him for me right now!" Lu Cuilan cried out.
Lu Shiyan stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes fixed straight ahead, and said in a calm voice, "Then he's back, isn't he?"
Everyone turned around and were surprised to find Fang Mingming carrying a gray rabbit, walking towards them.
Upon seeing her son, Lu Cuilan ran up to him crying, slapping his bottom and saying, "You brat, what have you been doing? You almost scared your mother to death!"
Fang Mingming trembled slightly with fear upon seeing her mother's disheveled appearance and blood-stained face. She didn't cry after her mother slapped her bottom, but stared blankly at her, asking, "Mother, what happened? Are you hurt?"
Ignoring her son's situation, Lu Cuilan remained furious, saying, "I'm asking you, who told you to run around like that? Didn't I tell you time and again not to run around? Why didn't you listen?"
Fang Mingming shrank back and whispered, "I know you did something to wrong Cousin Yan, so I wanted to find some nourishing food to send to him and apologize on your behalf."
When Lu Cuilan saw that her son had made such a big fuss, all because of Lu Chenyan, and that he was going to give the rabbit he was holding to the Lu family, she immediately scolded him angrily: "What do you mean you did something to wrong him? He's perfectly fine now, isn't he? What compensation do you want?"
"Just because my son isn't dead, does that mean you're innocent? You're a murderer."
Jiang Tangtang said coldly, "My son was just lucky that you didn't kill him. But who knows what kind of things someone like you might do if you stayed in the valley?"
"Exactly, who knows if she'll go crazy and try to kill us because we didn't agree to ask her for a favor?"
"Yes, yes, Village Chief Song, drive the Fang family out of the valley."
"Get them out!"
...
The villagers shouted, demanding that Village Chief Song drive the Fang family away.
Upon seeing this, the other brothers of the Fang family became anxious and said one after another, "We have already separated our family. This is the evil done by the fourth brother's family. What does it have to do with us? If you want to drive them out, drive out the fourth brother's family."
Seeing that her brothers not only did not support each other, but instead acted like mortal enemies, Old Mrs. Fang sat on the ground and burst into tears.
She kowtowed to Jiang Tangtang, Lu Shiyan, and Village Chief Song one by one, begging them to spare the fourth son's family.
