Chapter 60: Hidden Arrow
"Back then, ordinary people rarely saw anyone from the Li family, unlike now, where even though we Li family members are here, no one comes to visit us."
Finally, Tieguai Li smiled and looked at his grandson: "Times have changed. We have to accept our fate. There are some things we can't do, and some things we encounter are already a blessing. Being able to get close to them is an even greater blessing. Alright, go wash up and go to bed. Tomorrow you must apologize to Xiao Taohua sincerely. You are a junior and cannot disrespect your elders."
Li Zhen: ...
He was still basking in the glory his grandfather had described to him, and now it's all over?
"No more?"
"Otherwise what?" Tieguai Li said irritably.
"You still haven't told us how we ended up like this."
"What do you mean, 'How did you end up like this?' Aren't you doing well now? Are you starving or thirsty?" Tieguai Li didn't like hearing this. Even a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
"No, he's just an old Chinese medicine doctor whose business is deserted. He eats and drinks ordinary food. His glory days weren't spent supporting ten or eight servants. Even if he doesn't have servants now, what about his gold, heirlooms, and antiques?"
Tieguai Li: ...
Oh!
This grandson is really no good.
Ignore him!
As he abruptly stood up from the long bench, unsurprisingly, Li Zhen on the other side fell to the ground with a thud.
"Ha!" Tieguai Li coldly and arrogantly went to wash up.
We're better off without a grandson like that!
Li Zhen scratched his head in confusion. His butt hurt a little, but what was wrong with his grandfather?
He couldn't understand it, he couldn't figure it out, oh well, he'd just take it as his grandfather apologizing to him. As for him apologizing to that girl tomorrow, he didn't hear it, he didn't hear anything. Yeah, he's Li Zhen, no way he'd apologize, impossible, that's a pipe dream.
The Yin family was unaware of the conflict between Tieguai Li and his grandson. They were carefully asking Xiao Taohua about her learning achievements for the day. Upon hearing that her results were outstanding, they couldn't help but praise Xiao Taohua's intelligence. Xiao Taohua's mouth never closed as she was praised, and she kept smiling with her eyes narrowed. She was very happy and decided in her heart that she would study even more diligently in the future!
The days passed by as the old man and the young man studied and taught, and Li Zhen remained awkward, but at least he didn't cause as much trouble as he had at the beginning. As for an apology, there was none, absolutely none.
The most talked-about topic in Xiaolin Village and Xiaowang Village recently is that Wang Yinhua has returned.
Wang Yinhua's affair caused quite a stir, and she was eventually arrested. But now, she's back, and I heard that the matter has been resolved. It wasn't Wang Yinhua who did it at all. What could a little kid like her do? She was instigated by someone else, and that person who instigated her has run away.
As for why that person did that, I heard it was because they didn't like him.
Wang Yinhua was also threatened and instigated; she was an unlucky child.
this……
"It turns out we misunderstood that child. Fortunately, the higher-ups saw through Qiu Han's misunderstanding and released the child. Otherwise, the child's life would probably have been ruined."
"That's right. That child was pitiful back then. Her biological father died, and her biological mother didn't want her. Alas, who knew that it was her biological mother who wanted to remarry and didn't want her, this burden. It must be her mother's problem."
"Really? Her own mother is that cruel?"
"That's right. Plus, Wang Yinhua was unlucky. Others instigated her, and she became an ingrate. We were wrong to blame that child."
“I even told her off back then. No, I have to go see the child and apologize to the child.”
"I'm going too."
"I'm coming too."
As they spoke, the group of women each went back and grabbed some sweet potatoes and vegetables. They didn't care what they had, but they took some from home and headed towards Xiaowang Village.
Wang Tielu naturally received the news as well. He had been quiet for a long time, but his brows were furrowed. He couldn't understand why Wang Yinhua was able to come back!
But that didn't stop Wang Tielu from feeling a sense of crisis, always feeling that Wang Yinhua's first target after returning was him.
Yes, that's right, Wang Tielu has absolutely no problem with that feeling.
If it weren't for Wang Tielu's interference, Wang Yinhua wouldn't have been arrested so quickly. So, if we're talking about who Wang Yinhua resented the most, it would be Xiao Taohua, but the second most resented person would be Wang Tielu.
What was that? Just because of Wang Tielu's words, she was sent down to a farm, where she lived a life worse than death. Now that she thinks about it, she doesn't know how she survived.
Even Xiao Taohua, whom she now resents the most, has been relegated to the back of Wang Tielu's list.
As for how Wang Tielu was exposed? Ha, the woman who returned was no longer the same as before; she was now Niohuru Wang Yinhua. Was it difficult to investigate such a matter? Not at all! Moreover, she also found out about the anonymous report; it was from Xiao Taohua's parents.
But it doesn't matter, Wang Yinhua can settle accounts with them one by one. They are all enemies, and since they are enemies, they should all be eliminated!
So, when faced with others' guilty consolation, Wang Yinhua said pitifully, "No, it's not my aunts' fault. After all, although I was instigated, I still did it, and I admit it. But I really didn't expect Wang Tielu to hate me so much. I was just a child, and Wang Tielu actually went to someone to complain about me. What did I do to offend him?"
"What Wang Tielu? What happened to Wang Tielu?"
Although they weren't from the same village, Wang Tielu was a famous figure, oh no, a famous kid.
His fame mainly stems from the fact that having a stepmother meant having a stepfather, and later the stepmother treated the child well, which provided plenty of gossip for everyone.
“Actually, Wang Tielu saw me digging the grave and even handed me a stick.”
"What?!"
"It's true. I even asked him about it, and he said he didn't like little peach blossoms. Anyway, it wasn't his doing, so he just handed me a stick!"
"this!"
"I'm sorry, Uncle and Aunt, it's all my fault. No one else is at fault! And Little Peach Blossom, I will apologize to him."
Seeing Wang Yinhua crying uncontrollably, everyone offered her words of comfort with complicated expressions.
As for Wang Tielu...
Well, he's probably driven crazy by his stepmother. You can see she's still afraid of him now.
Oh, right, is his stepmother afraid of him?
Hiss, he's probably really driven mad by the torture!
Forget it, they'd better not meddle in this kind of thing.
While thinking to themselves, everyone offered words of comfort to Wang Yinhua before bidding farewell to each other.
Wang Yinhua didn't expect anything from this group of people. When she was taken away, they all spoke to her in the most offensive way. It wasn't surprising that they were now standing aside. However, her goal was simply to drag Wang Tielu out and put him in the public eye.
Ha, she's already famous anyway, so she's not afraid of becoming even more famous. And you can forget about shooting her in the back again, you who's hiding behind the scenes!
"System, can I extract all of Wang Tielu's luck?"
The system remained silent for a long time.
"system?"
"Attention, host. Mission objective has been detected. Romantic target has been found."
"Hmm?" Wang Yinhua was wondering when the system continued, "The romanceable character is Wang Tielu. His background is omitted, and his potential value has no upper limit."
Wang Yinhua almost jumped up: "What did you say?!"
