Chapter 56 The First Person to Pass the Buck
Huo Zhongnian choked and felt a pang in his heart.
Isn't that what he calls the villagers "silly idiots"?
How did Li Zheng know?
Could it be that...
Looking at the mocking eyes of the crowd and recalling the unusual behavior of the entire village today, Huo Zhongnian shuddered all over!
He looked at everyone hesitantly: "You, you..."
"We? We are your ancestors!" Tietou's father rushed forward and knocked him down with a punch, "Huo Zhongnian, you son of a bitch! I've been putting up with you for a while! Don't you want to fool us all? Now we are right in front of you, come and play us!"
Two streams of blood flowed from his nostrils. Huo Zhongnian covered his injured face and looked at everyone in disbelief.
Exposed!
Exposed from the beginning!
Everything that happened today was just a trap set by the entire Heihe Village for the Huo family!
He is like a clown, performing hard in front of everyone. He thinks his performance is perfect, but unexpectedly he is just a joke in the eyes of others!
In an instant, an overwhelming sense of shame surrounded Huo Zhongnian. He felt like someone had torn off his fig leaf and was running naked in the sun!
He raised his head with a crazy look!
Why?
He had clearly endured humiliation that others could not bear (emphasis here), but God still wanted to deprive him of his last bit of self-esteem and pride!
No one knows how important Heihe Village is to him!
Here, he enjoys the envy and admiration of everyone;
Here, he is a top scholar, standing out from the crowd;
Here, without anyone reminding him, he knew how talented and outstanding he was!
But now, the last piece of land in his heart has also been defiled...
He was no longer the person others looked up to, he became a liar that everyone hated!
No, he won't give up!
There must be a way to salvage it!
His sinister eyes slowly moved towards the Huo family, and finally stopped on Ye Yanlan's face.
He grinned miserably, "Bitch, you're the one who hurt me, right?!"
Ye Yanlan was frightened by his bloody face and stammered, "Husband, what did you say?"
"Ye Yanlan, you planned all this, didn't you?" Huo Zhongnian looked furious, as if he had suffered a great injustice. "You first planned this drama for the Huo family, and then tipped off the Ye family, saying it was all my idea! You made me lose face in front of everyone and I couldn't defend myself! Is that right or not?!"
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. This...
Huo Zhongnian's method of shifting the blame is simply astonishing!
Ye Yanlan was dumbfounded: "I...I didn't..."
Huo Zhongnian sneered, "Ye Yanlan, in order to get the Ye family to recognize you, you are so desperate that you don't hesitate to use underhanded tricks on me! You are a vicious woman with a heart as vicious as a snake and scorpion. I have finally seen through you..."
"Alright, Huo Zhongnian!" Ye Buwei interrupted him coldly, "Open the door and see your mother!"
Huo Zhongnian was stunned, then laughed triumphantly as if he had discovered a huge secret. "Look, fellow villagers, I was right! As soon as I mentioned that Ye Yanlan had schemed to slander me, the Ye family wouldn't let me continue! They are accomplices, they teamed up to deal with me, and I was wronged!"
Ye Buwei said calmly, "You're overthinking it. I didn't want to interrupt you, but your mother is only breathing her last. If we don't save her, it will be too late."
"What did you say?" Huo Zhongnian didn't react.
"I said, your mother accidentally kicked over a stool just now, and it has been hanging for a while."
Ye Buwei has deep internal strength and his hearing is beyond ordinary people. In addition, he is blind, so his hearing is even more acute. He heard it as soon as Old Lady Huo kicked over the stool.
He chose to speak out now, firstly, to teach Old Mrs. Huo a lesson; secondly, he didn't want the villagers to bear a debt of conscience.
If Old Mrs. Huo really died in front of everyone today, all the villagers present would probably never be able to get rid of the guilt in their hearts for the rest of their lives.
Old Mrs. Huo deserves to die, but not in this situation.
"What?!"
“He was really hung up?!”
As soon as Ye Buwei said this, not only the Huo family, but everyone else present was stunned!
"Mother!"
Huo Danian was the first to rush into the room. He grabbed Old Mrs. Huo's legs and lifted her up. The others worked together to take her down from the noose.
Old Mrs. Huo was lying on the ground, with a circle of marks on her neck and her face was purple. She looked like she was dead.
Several experienced maids came over, some beating their chests, some helping her to breathe smoothly. After a while, Old Mrs. Huo woke up.
"Uh uh—"
There was a hoarse cry in her throat and Old Lady Huo was gasping for breath. Seeing so many people surrounding her, she felt a little dizzy.
She accidentally kicked the stool away and started fighting for her life, unaware of what was happening outside.
She looked at the villagers suspiciously.
Didn't you say you weren't coming? Why are you all here again?
Do you have to wait until she is really hanging to death before you come?
What a bunch of black-hearted people!
But now that people are here, the show must go on.
Old Mrs. Huo clutched her chest and cried, "Son! Why did you bother to rescue me? I won't live in vain until Daya comes back..."
"That's enough! Are you done yet? You shameless old thing!" Luo Qiuyue walked in, holding the little girl. "Why do you think everyone doesn't come to your house? Because everyone knows what kind of shit your family is! I'm saying, can you please stop this? If it weren't for my Old Ye, you would have kicked the bucket and met your end long ago!"
Old Mrs. Huo naturally didn't believe Luo Qiuyue's words, and looked for the answer on her son's face, but found that Huo Zhongnian looked panicked and his face was covered in blood.
"Son, what's wrong with you? Who is so blind as to hit you?"
Huo Zhongnian didn't say anything.
Huo Danian stammered, "Mom, they really knew everything. They blamed my second brother for coming up with the idea to deceive them, so they beat him..."
Mrs. Huo's eyes widened, "Impossible!"
How could they possibly know!
"Mother, it's Ye. She's deceived you all!" Huo Zhongnian pulled her arm and shook it. "In order to please the Ye family, she insisted on saying that this idea was mine! Mother, do you think this matter has anything to do with me?"
Old Mrs. Huo understood instantly, "This has nothing to do with you! It was all that bitch Ye's idea! This little bitch almost killed me!"
Everyone: “…”
The Huo family's ability to confuse right and wrong is unparalleled!
"Master, Juanjuan can't stand it! They treat Juanjuan as a mere decoration. It's such an insult to snakes!"
The golden snake lying in Xiaojiu's pocket was about to jump out, but was held down by Xiaojiu.
"Snake, stay here and watch me!"
Xiaojiu was about to speak, but Tietou's father spoke first.
Tietou's father had a bad temper and was about to explode. "Again? Still acting? When you two were whispering to each other, we squatted in the corner of your house and heard it clearly! It was all planned by you, Huo Zhongnian! What does this have to do with the Ye family..."
Squatting in the corner?!
Huo Zhongnian's body swayed and he collapsed to the ground.
