"Am I talking nonsense?"
Li Weidong sneered: "Fine, then call your cousin over now, and I'll confront him face to face."
"Confrontation?"
Wang Dahua broke out in a cold sweat again, her face turning deathly pale.
How could she dare?
She provided false information this time, which really hurt them, and they're probably furious right now.
Calling him over now would be like walking into a trap.
I'm sure I'll give myself away...
Thinking this, she forced herself to remain calm and said, "Who do you think you are? My cousin is a high-ranking official in the city. What gives you the right to order him around like that?"
"You have a point. Here's what we'll do: come to our house and call your cousin in front of everyone. If you dare, I'll believe you didn't do it..."
"Are you crazy? Why should I listen to you?"
After saying this, Wang Dahua grabbed Hu Zi and tried to leave.
But at that moment, village chief Li Baotian darted forward and blocked her path.
"His aunt, I think you'd better clarify things to avoid hurting the relationship..."
Li Baotian is no fool for being able to rise to the position of village chief.
Seeing Wang Dahua's evasive gaze and ambiguous words, and considering her character, it was clear that she was the one who did it.
"Uncle Baotian, what do you mean? You can't just side with Li Weidong because he's your grandson!" Wang Dahua said angrily.
"I don't favor anyone, and I believe the masses have discerning eyes."
After speaking, Li Baotian turned his gaze to the crowd of onlookers.
People responded immediately:
"Wang Dahua, if you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear. If you have nothing to hide, why are you running away?"
"Yeah, if you're so capable, call your cousin right now."
"Wang Dahua, the more you try to run away, the more guilty you seem. You're the one who snitched, aren't you?"
"Wang Dahua, if you dare to run away today! Don't blame the village for not tolerating you in the future!"
Hearing the accusations around her, Wang Dahua's face grew even paler.
She knew that she wouldn't be leaving until she explained things clearly today...
After a quick thought, she gritted her teeth and said, "Yes, I did it, but so what? It's because you, Li Weidong, were ungrateful first, that I retaliated."
"I'm not benevolent? How am I not benevolent?" Li Weidong sneered.
"What do you think? Our mushrooms got sick because you were jealous of us and deliberately spread it..."
"I deliberately spread it?" Li Weidong was amused by her. "What, am I the source of the virus? Can I spread it to whomever I want? Don't you even know what science is?"
"I don't care about any of that. Anyway, it's your Mr. Mushroom's disease that spread to ours... You little bastard, you not only don't compensate us, but you also make so much money."
Why should I? I refuse to accept this!
"If God is blind, then I'll personally deal with you!"
"So you reported me?" Li Weidong looked at Wang Dahua with resentment.
"Yes, I reported it, so what? This is my legal right. I did it for the Party and the country, for the legitimate rights and interests of the people. You're just speculating and profiteering, and you still think you're right?"
"Enough!!!"
Seeing Wang Dahua spouting a series of fallacies and heresies, Li Baotian was the first to lose his temper and angrily interrupted her!
"Fortunately, Weidong's losses weren't too great this time. If he had really lost 200,000, even if you sold your house, it wouldn't be enough to cover it. Today, I'm here to stand up for you. You kowtow to Weidong and apologize, and we'll call it even. Neither of you is allowed to cause trouble for the other in the future."
As the village chief, Li Baotian was naturally aware of the feud between the two families, so he acted as a peacemaker.
However, upon hearing this request, Wang Dahua jumped up like a cat with its fur standing on end.
He was furious: "Are you out of your mind, you old geezer? You want me to kowtow and apologize to a junior? Aren't you afraid he'll die young?"
"Wang Dahua, who are you calling an old bastard? You're an ungrateful traitor, and Uncle Baotian only made you kowtow, which is already giving you extra face."
"Exactly, Wang Dahua, don't think the villagers don't know about the dirty things you've done?"
"Wang Dahua, if you don't kowtow and apologize today, don't blame us for not tolerating you in Taohuayu Village!"
"Yes, if you don't apologize, get out of Peach Blossom Valley!"
"Get out of Peach Blossom Valley!!!"
The villagers' emotions were completely ignited, and they angrily denounced Wang Dahua.
Hearing the rebukes from those around her, Wang Dahua turned pale and finally realized that she had angered everyone this time.
The pressure from public opinion made her feel extremely anxious.
He pouted, as if he wanted to say something.
But she found that no matter what she said, it all sounded so weak and powerless…
Just as she was wondering what to do, Tiger suddenly knelt down on the ground.
"Uncle Yasuda, please don't blame my mother. I'll apologize on her behalf."
After saying that, he knelt down at Zhao Xiulian's feet.
"Third Aunt, we were wrong this time. I'll kowtow to you and admit my sins."
After kowtowing three times, he stood up, took Wang Dahua's hand, and left without looking back.
After the mother and son left, the crowd started talking again.
"That mother and daughter are really awful; they do nothing but harm others and cause trouble."
"That's right, making him kowtow three times is too lenient on him."
"It's only because our village chief is kind-hearted. If it were me, I would never have let him off the hook..."
After the two men walked away, Li Baotian turned to look at Li Weidong.
He said earnestly, "Weidong, I've heard about what happened between you and your aunt's family. Could you please let this go for my sake? They've already knelt down and apologized."
