Chapter 209: Unreasonable

Baozhu and Anan in the kitchen looked at each other and tacitly slowed down their movements.

The master is very angry now, so they should try to reduce their presence as much as possible.

Jiang Wan only stood there for half a minute.

Because her mother made medicine for her to prevent and treat colds.

This time, A Niang was really angry. She used to give her candy when she took medicine, but today she gave her nothing but a sour face.

"Mother, are you tired? Let me give you a back massage."

"Are you thirsty, mother? I'll make you some honey water."

"Mother..."

In the end, Jiang Wan tried every trick in the book to make A Niang laugh but failed, and was even kicked out of the pharmacy by A Niang.

She looked at Baozhu resentfully, found a pair of scissors and started to clean the sea urchin.

Just after cutting two of them, the door was pushed open in a panic.

"Cousin!! I heard that you jumped into the sea to save someone today!"

“Tsk, tsk…”

Jiang Wan quickly winked at her cousin, saying that her mother was preparing medicinal herbs and might forget about this matter if she was distracted.

"What's wrong with you? Are you okay?"

Yin Ning pulled Jiang Wan up and looked at it carefully.

"I'm really fine. I said before that I'm a good swimmer. Have you forgotten that?"

"Okay, I'm glad you're okay. Everyone in the village is talking about how dangerous the sea water was today. I heard that a boy was swept away. I was scared."

Jiang Wan's scalp tingled. This was the only time she didn't want her cousin to stay at home longer.

"Okay, I'm glad you're okay. There are a lot of people embroidering at my house, I have to go back and watch them. I'll come find you in the evening."

"Okay, okay."

Jiang Wan took a basin filled with a few sea urchins and walked her cousin directly to the door.

"Well, I'm older than you, so I don't need you to help me get it."

Yin Ning took the basin and pinched Jiang Wan's little face, and said solemnly: "Cousin, the sea water is ruthless and sometimes even adults can't resist it. You must be very careful before going into the sea. I don't care what happens to others, I just hope you are fine."

Jiang Wan nodded obediently.

If the person who went to the sea today was her mother or cousin, she would do the same. So she understands their feelings.

But now that the sea has receded and the people have been rescued, I don’t think too much about it.

Compared to the tranquility of Jiang Wan's family, the old village chief's family was in chaos at this time.

"Give me back my son!!"

"You heartless girl, you took my son to the beach and killed him!"

The wailing from the seaside reached the village chief's house, and the curses became even more unpleasant.

People who don't understand the situation may misunderstand it.

Xiao Lan's mother really rushed to the yard and slapped the woman twice, but she was already pitiful because she had lost her son, and if she hit her again, she would be the one who was wrong.

She was so mad!

"Mother, don't listen. It's okay. I didn't hurt Jin Gui. Many people in the village saw it."

Xiaolan has recovered by now and even knows how to comfort her mother.

Seeing such a caring little girl, Xiao Lanniang couldn't help but shed tears again.

Gradually, more and more people gathered around the village chief's house. They didn't come to see the excitement, but they were just afraid that the village chief would be bullied.

Many people were talking about what happened at the beach today, and they all wanted to help Xiaolan clear the stigma.

The village chief's second daughter-in-law Liu Mengzhen was in a dilemma.

On one side is my elder sister, and on the other side is my husband's family.

It was a big deal that her sister's son was gone, and she was sad too. The next moment, her sister started to mess around in the yard.

He scolded Xiaolan, his sister-in-law, and even his parents-in-law.

Seeing her parents-in-law’s faces were so dark that ink could drip from them, she simply didn’t dare to think about what she would do after this incident.

My mother-in-law didn't like her to begin with.

"Second sister, can you please get up first? I'll go to the beach with you and we can hire a boat to look for Jin Gui. Maybe he's still alive."

"Get out of here! It's all your fault! You're also responsible for my son's death here!!"

Liu Mengjian was stunned.

How can this be blamed on her?

It was obvious that my second sister brought her here because she wanted to send her in-laws' child to study here. I had refused her several times but she wouldn't listen.

"It's all your fault! If you had agreed to let my son study earlier, this wouldn't have happened today!"

Second Sister Liu was still crying, trying her best to pin the death of her son on Lian Jiagou.

The old village chief almost fainted, and it took him a while to feel better.

"Shameless woman, I understand that you just lost your child, so I won't bother with you. But you are getting more and more aggressive. Second son's wife, let me ask you, did you invite her to come here today?"

Liu Meng shook his head repeatedly.

"I haven't invited my second sister this month."

"Humph! It's fine that you came uninvited, but you didn't listen to my granddaughter who told you several times not to go to the beach. When we went to the beach, you dragged my granddaughter to play in the deep water. So many people saw it, and you still dared to get close to my Xiaolan. You really think my family is easy to bully, don't you?"

Can Sister Liu reason? Of course not.

She would keep making trouble at the village chief's house until her husband's family came.

This matter was exposed in the Lian family. Even if the dead girl didn't pay with her life, she would squeeze some money out of this family. Otherwise, she would definitely be beaten badly when she returned home.

At that moment she began to cry again, and each cry for her son was particularly miserable.

"Big Boss, go get some strong men to tie her up."

Upon hearing this, Second Sister Liu was shocked.

"How dare you tie me up?! Why?!"

"You broke into a private house, and I am taking you to the authorities. You can also have a good talk with the magistrate about your son's case. If the magistrate finds my Xiaolan guilty, I will sell my land and house and give all my property to your family."

The old village chief was not afraid at all.

He knew that Lord Qin was the most impartial and selfless person, and that the second sister of the Liu family was being unreasonable in doing this.

Liu Erjie knew this, so she absolutely could not see the official. She immediately ran out of the yard and lay on the side of the road, still wailing.

Since it wasn't in the yard, it naturally didn't count as intrusion. The old village chief laughed in anger and glanced at the second son's wife.

At this glance, Liu Meng froze.

She knew that if she didn't handle this matter properly, her father-in-law would not be willing to speak up for her in the future, and her mother-in-law would definitely bully her even more!

Which is more important, my own sister or my husband's family?

Liu Meng made a choice immediately.

She spent ten cents to find an aunt, and the two of them carried her second sister directly to the beach.

No matter how he cursed or struggled, Liu Meng never let go.

When we got to the seaside, we rented a fishing boat to take our people aboard and set off without hesitation.

"Second sister, when a person dies, his body must be found. No matter what, it is important to find Jin Gui first."

Liu Erjie was a landlubber, and she instantly became obedient when she saw the vast ocean.

But his mouth was still busy.

"Bah! Stop pretending to be nice. You just want to see me laugh. Let me tell you, I can still have children even if my son dies. I'm not like you, a chicken that hasn't laid eggs for three years."

Liu Meng clenched her fists and really wanted to push her second sister off the boat.
