As soon as the two of them arrived, the brigade leader, Zhang Guihua, Huo Changgen, and Li Xiangyun all came over.
The captain's face was very ugly; he looked extremely angry.
Yun Ningyan looked at Huo Changlan and her two daughters, and a smile crept onto her lips, which she couldn't suppress no matter how hard she tried.
Because it's just too funny!
The three women were left hanging there, screaming and shouting all night. They were too scared to sleep, so they looked very listless.
At this point, more air is being expelled than being inhaled.
She whispered, "What if they're dead?"
If he dies, Huo Junshan will be in big trouble.
Huo Junshan shook his head: "Good people don't live long, but bad people live for a thousand years."
Huo Changgen hurriedly walked to Huo Changlan's side and asked, "Changlan, are you alright? I'll put you down right away."
Huo Changlan opened her eyes, glanced at him, and then closed them again.
Huo Changgen was startled, thinking she had just passed away!
The captain shouted to his two sons, "Go and put your aunt and cousin down right now!"
Others rushed to help.
Finally, they were able to put all three of them down.
Huo Changlan's body felt very stiff. She had been tied up in one position all night, and her legs felt like they wouldn't obey her anymore.
Yao Qingqing and Yao Tingting are both young and much better off than her.
The two were put down and, after a while, were able to walk on their own.
The area where I was tied up was excruciatingly painful.
The captain asked, "Chang Lan, what happened? Do you know who did it?"
Huo Changlan angrily pointed at Huo Junshan and shouted, "Big brother! It was Huo Laosan who did it! I saw him! It was him!"
The captain's face darkened: "Chang Lan, don't make baseless accusations. You know Lao San's temper!"
When Li Xiangyun saw that Huo Changlan was actually trying to implicate her son, she immediately pointed at Huo Changlan's nose and yelled, "You, Huo Changlan, didn't you see who tied you up? You're trying to frame our third son! Where is your conscience?"
Huo Changlan was so angry that tears streamed down his face: "Big brother! I have no grudge against anyone, who would kidnap me?"
Li Xiangyun shouted, "Listen to this, all of you! These three women, mother and daughters, have lived in my house for half a year, yet they claim to have a grudge against us. Listen to this! Such heartless people!"
After she finished speaking, she grabbed Huo Changgen's ear and said, "Huo Changgen, look at how your sister is slandering your son. She can't find anyone, so she says it was the third brother who did it."
"If she were to kill someone one day, would she blame it on the third son?"
"If you dare to take even a single grain of rice from here again, get out of here!"
Yun Ningyan didn't expect her mother-in-law to react so strongly; she was too fierce!
But her words were clear, logical, and every sentence made sense, reminding everyone that Huo Changlan was a heartless person.
This instantly turned everyone's pity for Huo Changlan into hatred!
She secretly gave a thumbs up.
My mother-in-law is amazing!
Huo Changlan!
She knew that Li Xiangyun wouldn't let her off the hook for saying that.
My second brother doesn't listen to her at all anymore; this old woman has him completely under her thumb.
Huo Changgen pried Li Xiangyun's hand off: "Let go! So many people are watching! How am I supposed to save face?"
Li Xiangyun glared at him angrily, and warned him sternly, "You stand back and don't interfere!"
Huo Changgen now realizes that his sister is no longer the cute and kind little sister he knew when they were children.
It's best if I don't interfere!
Huo Changlan looked at Li Xiangyun's domineering manner. She dared to pull her second brother's ear in front of so many people. What a shrew!
She pointed at Huo Junshan again and said, "Big brother, that's the third brother. Apart from having some unpleasantness with his wife, I haven't had a falling out with anyone else."
The captain sighed and asked Huo Junshan, "Third brother, what do you say?"
Huo Junshan said speechlessly, "It wasn't me. I was at home yesterday."
"Auntie, if you're implicating me, can I also say that money went missing from my house yesterday, and that you stole it?"
Huo Changlan was so angry that he almost spat out blood.
This little brat, he actually won't admit it!
"Who else could it be but you? I bet you're here to avenge your wife by tying me to this tree."
"I only said a few words to your wife, and you retaliate like this? I'm your own aunt!"
Huo Junshan didn't answer but asked in return, "You still know you're my aunt? I thought you were a stranger!"
"Teacher Xiao's father and Ningning's father have been friends for many years. We are just closer in the village."
"You keep spreading those foul words everywhere. Do you think you can bully Ningning just because I'm not home? What have you done that your aunt should or should do?"
"While my parents and I were away from home, you went to cause trouble for Ningning and tried to steal our meat. Ningning is pregnant, how did you treat her?"
Huo Changlan!
How did this little rascal become so quick-witted!
She said to the captain, "Brother, brother, look, he still says it wasn't him, but he remembers every single thing clearly. If it wasn't him, then who else could it be?"
The captain looked at Huo Junshan, then at Huo Changlan.
He already knew that it was probably the third brother who did it.
But there was neither evidence nor witnesses.
He wouldn't say that it was the third brother who did it.
Unless someone sees it, there's nothing we can do.
This girl and her nephew, he's taking the nephew's place.
His girlfriend really went too far and should be disciplined.
So that you don't forget your own surname.
He scolded, "Alright! You have no evidence, yet you say it's the third brother's. What if the third brother says money was stolen from his house and you stole it? Would you admit it?"
