The control group in the chronological text of Chapter 193 (9)
"What? Wang Laizi is missing?"
Upon hearing the news, Su Yu's expression changed drastically, and she immediately stood up.
Wang Ma's heart tightened.
He immediately stepped forward and grabbed her hand.
"Su Yu! You've seen my son, haven't you? Tell me! Where is he?!"
Su Yu felt a sharp pain in her wrist as the old woman squeezed it. Her mind went blank, and she shook her head repeatedly.
"I...I didn't."
Grandpa Su also stood up with a frown and pulled Su Yu away from the old woman's hand.
“Li Xiuying! My granddaughter has already said she hasn’t seen your son. Why are you still holding onto him? She’s a little girl and she’d run away as fast as she could if she saw your son.”
That makes sense.
The captain nodded repeatedly after hearing this.
Wang Laizi's mother naturally objected, her face darkening as she shouted, "You were the one who came to my house before my son left! You owe me an explanation!"
Su Yu was completely dumbfounded.
What... what's going on?
She did see Wang Laizi following her during the day, and initially thought he had some ulterior motive towards Su Hui, but then he didn't show up again.
Strange!
That's really strange!
However, having lived two lives, she knew that such things were hard to explain, and she couldn't say that she had seen it.
So she gritted her teeth.
"I really didn't see it. I was carrying someone on my back, how could I see that far? If you don't believe me, you can ask Su Hui."
She pointed to her cousin next to her.
Old Mrs. Wang was startled and stepped forward to grab Su Hui's hand.
Changqing reached out from the side and stopped her. "Speak your mind, don't resort to violence," he said calmly.
Although the young man wasn't very strong, he was very tall, and his long shadow loomed over him under the kerosene lamp, causing Wang Laizi's mother to shrink back involuntarily.
Su Hui felt relieved.
"I was completely unconscious at that time and didn't know anything."
She peeked out from behind Changqing and spoke softly.
Several educated youths looked at each other with strange expressions.
Wan Zhiqing's behavior is a bit strange.
He's always been someone who doesn't care about things that don't concern him, and he wouldn't even help the female educated youth with their work. But now, he's actually standing up for a village girl.
Grandpa Su saw this and his eyes lit up.
Wang Laizi's mother knew she wouldn't get anything out of Su Hui, so she turned her attention to Su Yu.
"You must have seen my son, right?"
While Su Yu was still hesitating, Yang Wei stepped forward and pointed out, "Miss Su, I remember you mentioned Wang Laizi during the day."
Su Yu's expression changed.
After being reminded, the others actually remembered that when a group of people went to look for Su Hui, near the haystack, Su Yu exclaimed in surprise that she had mentioned Wang Laizi.
Wang Laizi's mother's expression changed, and she stepped forward, grabbing Su Yu again.
"Speak! What happened? Where did you see my son before?!"
This time, the old woman used even more force, causing Su Yu to stumble.
Even Grandpa Su was taken aback.
It seems... Su Yu mentioned Wang Laizi's name back then.
"I, I....."
Su Yu wanted to slap herself right then and there. She was so surprised to not see Wang Laizi that she blurted out something she shouldn't have.
How do we explain this now?
She wasn't quick-witted, and for a moment, she couldn't really come up with a reason.
Su Hui's eyes flickered as she stood to the side.
Suddenly, she stepped forward, her gaze fixed on Su Yu.
"Su Yu, you deliberately took a detour and then left me there, just so that Wang Laizi would assault me, right? You even brought people with you, but you didn't see Wang Laizi, so you were surprised and let it slip, right?"
Her voice was cold, filled with suppressed anger.
Everyone was instantly surprised.
Changqing couldn't help but admire her; this girl had come up with so many ideas all at once, and her guesses were almost spot on.
Upon hearing this, Su Yu herself felt a jolt of surprise; of course, she wouldn't admit it.
"I didn't! Su Hui! You're just making baseless accusations and slandering me!"
Su Hui stepped forward, her gaze sharp. "Then tell me, why did you take a detour, and when you passed by the Wang family's gate, did Wang Laizi follow you out?"
She is thoughtful and perceptive.
My cousin has been acting strangely these past few days, showing a lot of hostility towards me. I had sensed it a long time ago. Besides making her work in the fields, she also targeted me in every aspect of my life. Why would she be so kind as to take me to the clinic?
She already found it strange.
Now that all the clues are piled up together, she's actually managing to guess some things.
Su Yu was speechless, unsure how to explain.
Wang Laizi's mother, however, became agitated and slapped her across the face. "You wretch! Where's my son? You must have seen him! Where is he?"
Snap!
With a crisp sound, Su Yu's face was slapped to the side.
Although Wang Laizi's mother was old, she had worked hard all year round and was quite strong. The slap came without warning, and Su Yu's mind went blank. She had been reborn to dominate the world, not to be slapped. She immediately got angry, broke free of his hand, and slapped Wang Laizi's mother across the face.
"You old hag! How dare you hit me!"
Su Yu screamed and pounced on it.
Wang Laizi's mother was already anxious and not known for her good temper. As an elder, she often acted arrogantly due to her age. When she was hit by a junior, her anger flared up, and she grabbed Su Yu's hair, and the two began to wrestle.
Everyone was stunned.
no.
Why did they suddenly start fighting?
Changqing pulled Su Hui back a step to make way for her.
The captain and Grandpa Su rushed forward and pulled the people apart, but they were clearly a step too slow. In just a short while, Su Yu and the old woman had several bloody marks on their faces.
"You little brat! You must have seen my son. Tell me! Where is my son?"
The old woman's face was contorted with rage as she gritted her teeth and cursed.
Su Yu was also seething with anger, and upon hearing this, she immediately retorted with a curse.
"You old hag! What do I care if your son goes missing? I'm not his mother! If you love your son so much, then keep him in your sight and don't let him out of your sight!"
"Only an old hag like you would treat him like a treasure. Your son is such trash, I would say he should have died long ago. If our village lost your son, maybe we could be awarded the title of civilized village next year!"
She went all out, making the old woman so angry that she rolled her eyes and almost fainted.
The Su family members were all stunned.
No one expected that Su Yu, who had always been honest and unassuming, would be so fierce, and that he could fight to a standstill with the village's troublesome old woman.
What no one knew was that Su Yu was also feeling very wronged at this moment.
She was finally reborn.
As a result, she encountered this kind of thing again, and the old woman even hit her, which she couldn't tolerate at all.
I am a person with great opportunities.
I will never compromise my principles again in this lifetime!
"I don't know anything! Go ahead and report it to the police if you dare!"
Finally, Su Yu left those words and went straight into her room.
Grandpa Su sighed.
"Captain, Wang Shengniang, should we report this to the police?"
Wang Laizi's mother spat fiercely, "Report it then! My son's disappearance must be related to that slut!"
The captain, on the other hand, was much more composed.
"Let's organize people to look for them first. If they don't see them in a couple of days, then we'll call the police. If we call the police every time someone doesn't come home for dinner, the police will be too busy to handle it all."
