The village was bustling with activity. The three brothers of Li Dazhu's family secretly climbed over the wall into Baizhi's house in the middle of the night to release a snake, but the house collapsed. The three brothers are now more miserable than each other. The people who sent them to the hospital have not returned yet, and there is still no result.
The villagers gathered together and started discussing the matter heatedly.
"The three brothers of the Li Dazhu family have such terrible luck..."
"In my opinion, this is retribution. They deserve it. I didn't quite believe them when they said they climbed over the wall and burned my admission ticket. Now it seems like they definitely did it!"
"Does Uncle Shuanmin know about this? He and Bai Zhi left for the county town last night!"
"I don't know, can they control the collapse of their own houses?"
"Uncle Shuanmin and Baizhi are so lucky!"
At this time, another older man said:
"Alas, this is all karma, a tit-for-tat. The house collapsed, and the three brothers happened to be inside. It didn't hit Shuanmin and Baizhi, but it hit the three brothers instead. It's all karma from a long time ago..."
"Sixth Uncle, what do you mean?"
"Have you forgotten where the Shuanmin lived before? And who built that sheepfold?"
"Oh, I remember now!" Someone immediately said, "Li Dazhu's house belongs to Uncle Shuanmin. Back then, Dazhu's father couldn't support them and almost sold his children. If it weren't for Uncle Shuanmin who helped them, providing them with food and clothing, and renting them land, there might not be a Li Dazhu family in the village now! The sheepfold was built by Li Dazhu's father with his help. He said there was no work in the fields, and they wanted to repay his kindness and help build a sheepfold..."
Immediately, some young villagers sighed—
"Tsk tsk, that's really a tit-for-tat situation. Li Dazhu and his father drove Shuanmin's family out to live in the sheep pen, and then they moved into their house. As a result, the sheep pen was not built firmly, so it collapsed. They couldn't collapse on the benefactor, so they collapsed on the three evil brothers. It really is retribution!"
Immediately, the villagers nodded continuously, obviously agreeing that Li Dazhu's family had suffered retribution.
"It's better to stay away from this house in the future, so as not to be affected by the bad smell..."
While the villagers were talking, Bai Zhi and Li Shuanmin were packing up things from the collapsed house. However, they didn't have much, so they quickly gathered together what they could use.
Li Shuanmin looked at Bai Zhi and couldn't help asking, "Xiao Zhi, this collapsed house..."
Bai Zhi looked at him with an innocent look on her face: "Grandpa, it's a good thing we didn't stay in the village last night!"
"Yes, thank goodness." Li Shuanmin also looked scared.
The thought that had just arisen in my mind was also dispelled. Could Bai Zhi have influenced whether the house collapsed or not? It was all a coincidence. They were just lucky, so they didn't suffer the same misfortune!
"Oh, I don't know where we will live in the future... Before the house is built, we may have to live in the cowshed." Moreover, they have no money or food to hire someone to help build a house, even if it is just the simplest one!
Li Shuanmin sighed again.
Bai Zhi: "It's okay, there will be a place to stay."
Li Shuanmin didn't understand and just thought Bai Zhi was comforting him.
"You girl..."
Soon, the noise in the village was heard again. It seemed that the people who sent the three Li brothers to the hospital had returned.
Baizhi and the others continued to pack up their things, not caring at all.
As a result, that night, not only the captain, but also Li Dazhu's family and his three brothers came back!
——Among the three brothers, the eldest one was blind in one eye, but the wound has been bandaged.
——From now on, the second child will not be able to use great strength with his left hand, and the wound on his face will definitely leave a scar.
——The third child’s condition is even more serious. His legs are completely disabled. He can only lie in bed from now on and can never stand up again.
It would be a waste of money to stay in the hospital any longer. Li Dazhu's family didn't have much savings, and the few silver dollars they had were stolen from Li Shuanmin.
After seeing the condition of the three brothers, it was clear that they would not spend less money in the future. The hospital also suggested that they come back to recuperate, so the team leader and Li Dazhu brought people back.
The three brothers were lying on the cart, and those who were awake all had a look of despair on their faces.
Li Laosan was still half-conscious, otherwise he would have been even crazier if he had known his situation.
As soon as they came back, Chen Guifang and Li Xiangxiang rushed towards Bai Zhi and Li Shuanmin.
"You two are such heartless people! Compensate me with my son, give me my healthy son! It's all your fault. If it weren't for you, they wouldn't be like this at all!!" Chen Guifang howled and was about to pounce, but was stopped by the villagers.
When she said this before, the villagers followed her thoughts, but after a day of fermentation, the villagers all felt that it was retribution for the three Li Dazhu brothers, and it had nothing to do with Bai Zhi and the others.
But no one spoke up for them, they just pulled them back to prevent anyone from getting hurt.
"Li Baizhi, you are so cruel!" Li Xiangxiang's eyes were swollen from crying. Her three brothers were her support, but now they are basically useless. She hated Baizhi to death.
"Li Shuanmin, Li Baizhi, you must give us an explanation!" Chen Guifang was stopped by someone. When she couldn't hit them, she gritted her teeth and cursed, "You heartless people, why don't you just die? You're a family without descendants, a disaster, a jinx, you bitch..."
Bai Zhi ignored them and looked at the captain instead: "Captain, I'm really going to call the police this time. They destroyed my house and caught me red-handed. If it weren't for them, our house might not have collapsed. They climbed over the wall in the middle of the night and we don't know what they were going to do."
Seeing what the captain was about to say, she slowly added:
"This time there is evidence, and here it is." Pointing to the collapsed house.
Chen Guifang stopped cursing and was stunned. Even Li Dazhu, who was also looking at them hatefully, was stunned.
They were clearly the ones looking to settle accounts with Baizhi and the others, but how come Baizhi ended up suing them?!
"The country is now strictly controlling public security. First they burned our admission tickets, and now they're doing this, bullying us, old and young, leaving us with no place to live. The police will definitely take care of it!" Bai Zhi was very calm, looking at the captain with a look of determination and resolve that he could see.
"Bah! You bitch, you jinx! Your house collapsed and killed my son, and now you're still..."
Bai Zhi interrupted her: "If we were at home last night, we might have been crushed to death by now. Even if they were injured, we have evidence this time, and the police will definitely interrogate them! Grandpa, let's call the police."
She turned her head and looked at Li Shuanmin.
Li Shuanmin was stunned and followed Bai Zhi for two steps in confusion.
"Wait!" Li Dazhu spoke immediately.
Chen Guifang also gritted her teeth and shouted loudly: "You can't leave!"
No matter how loud she shouted or cursed, on the way back, she had actually asked Li Xiangxiang, and the team leader also said that it was unrealistic to ask Bai Zhi and the others to pay compensation. After all, it was the three brothers who climbed over the wall in the middle of the night to do the bad thing.
If Baizhi calls the police, the police will only arrest the three brothers!
The three brothers' current situation was already bad. If they stayed with the police for another two days, even if they were released after a few days...
Li Dazhu and Chen Guifang didn't even dare to think about the consequences!
Bai Zhi and Li Shuanmin stopped.
"Baizhi, don't go to the police all the time. Our village's problems should be solved by our own village!" The captain sighed, stepped forward, and started to smooth things over again.
"What do you want?" Li Xiangxiang asked through gritted teeth.
Bai Zhi turned around and looked at them: "You've been holding my house for so long, it's time to exchange it back."
The surroundings suddenly became quiet.
Yes, the house that Li Dazhu's family lives in now belongs to Li Shuanmin's family. Other people in the village had thought about it at the time. You know, it was the most magnificent house in the village.
But Li Dazhu already lived there, so he took the initiative and occupied the house.
Other villagers who had this idea could only curse in private, because it was too late.
"Captain, is my request not excessive? This house originally belonged to us. They have occupied it for so long, it's time to return it." Bai Zhi glanced at Li Dazhu and others, then looked at the captain.
The captain frowned silently.
"Li Baizhi! What are you dreaming about?! That's our house. You should compensate us. How dare you covet our house? You are dreaming! I will fight you to the death!" Chen Guifang was so angry that her face turned pale.
She pushed away the people who were trying to stop her, picked up a stone from the ground and was about to hit Baizhi.
"Aunt Guifang, please don't mess around!"
"Chen Guifang!"
The villagers were all anxious, but Bai Zhi remained calm. She even stepped forward and said, "Go ahead and fight! It seems you really care about your son and want to go to the police station with him."
Chen Guifang's hands froze again.
She has a very loud voice and always competes with others to see who is louder and more unreasonable. But in fact, she is very afraid of death, but no one has ever threatened her with the law or the police.
Bai Zhi noticed this yesterday afternoon.
Bai Zhi looked at the captain and Li Dazhu and said, "You two make the decision now. If you don't return the house to us, then Grandpa and I will have no choice but to go to the police station and stay there tonight."
The captain frowned tightly, and Li Dazhu's eyes were also obscure and difficult to read.
This night was destined to be uneasy.
Li Dazhu's family discussed with the village cadres for a long time and finally decided to return the house to Li Shuanmin and Bai Zhi. As for Li Dazhu's family, they moved to the educated youth site to live.
The living conditions of the educated youth in their village were originally very poor, but after Gu Xinchen came, he paid someone to renovate the house, and now the house is quite nice in the village.
No one lives in that house now, and since Li Xiangxiang and Gu Xinchen have a good relationship, the team leader gave the house to them.
However, the original house must be returned to Baizhi and her family.
Chen Guifang was a little confused. Their three sons had become like this because of Li Baizhi and the others, so why did they have to give up their house?!
She won't do it.
"Why? No one can make me move out!" Chen Guifang sat down on the ground in the yard of the blue-tiled house.
Li Dazhu seemed to have aged ten years, squatting in the yard with a frown on his face, smoking.
Li Xiangxiang's eyes were also red and swollen. Seeing this, she said, "Mom, the priority for our eldest brother, second brother, and third brother is to recover from their injuries. Li Baizhi has changed. She's desperate now. If we don't move, she'll definitely go to the police station and make a scene. Now she's in the right."
After a pause, hatred flashed in her eyes. "Isn't it just a house? Let's give it to her, Mom. When my college entrance examination results come out, our family will be proud! When the time comes, I will go to Beijing to study at university and find Xinchen. He will definitely help us. When that time comes, Li Baizhi and Li Shuanmin, two incompetent farmers, we will just run them over with our feet!"
She had "seen the world" following Gu Xinchen, so naturally she looked down on the family's house. She had "foresight" and knew that she should hold back now, and once she contacted Xinchen, she would immediately retaliate.
The same goes for this house. When she gets out and moves to the city with her family, the house in the village will not be important at all.
Hearing this, Chen Guifang finally said, "My daughter, your three brothers are stupid. They have made themselves into this state. We can only rely on you to live a good life. You must avenge your three brothers in the future!"
"Don't worry, Li Baizhi will just be an ordinary village girl in the future. I will be a college student, and Brother Xinchen's family will be even more powerful. When the time comes, I will make her die a miserable death!"
"Let her kneel down and kowtow to us!"
"Yes."
"I'll also gouge out one of her eyes, break her legs and hands, and make her suffer all the pain your brother has suffered."
"Of course. After a while, crushing her will be as easy as crushing a grasshopper."
"Let her be proud for a few more days!"
…
So, Li Dazhui and his family moved out angrily.
Li Shuanmin was still a little dizzy. He thought he would have to stay in the cowshed tonight. He never expected that he could actually find their house back.
This was Baizhi’s parents’ biggest wish when they were alive!
However, this wish was never fulfilled until their death. They could only live in the sheep pen and watch the neighboring family jumping around proudly in their ancestral home.
