Su Dazhi had no doubts.
However, the three steward brothers implicated Su Tong.
They all said in unison that Guan Yumei had asked Su Tong to go to Wang'ao Village specifically to notify them to come and pick up the grain.
At this moment, Guan Yumei kept her mouth tightly shut and didn't say a word—she was already caught in the middle, and if she said another wrong word, she might be doomed.
Her limited brain still hasn't figured out what just happened.
After listening to everyone's chatter, Su Dazhi felt that he roughly understood.
It turns out that Guan Yumei dared to send the three Guan brothers to haul away grain while he was away!
He happened to run into his father and four younger brothers who came to visit him (to freeload), and they tried to stop him from pulling them apart, which led to the fight.
Su Dazhi looked at Guan Yumei: "Raise your head! I'm asking you, is what Guan Yuzhu said true?"
Guan Yumei bit her lip and shook her head vigorously.
Of the three brothers who were in charge of housekeeping, the second brother, Guan Yujun, was the first to realize what was happening.
He looked at Guan Yumei: "Sister, you can't do this! You were the one who told us to go and haul the grain, and now people are accusing us of robbery. You have to say something!"
Guan Yujun now understood that this was most likely a case of Su Tong falsely conveying the imperial edict, but if he said it was Su Tong who said it, it obviously wouldn't carry enough weight, so he could only pin the blame on Guan Yumei.
As for how Guan Yumei and Su Dazhi will continue to live their lives, that's not his concern.
Guan Yuhe chimed in, "That's right, eldest sister. When you returned to Haicheng from the village the day before yesterday, didn't you say that once Su Dazhi went to work, Su Tong would come and tell us to find a vehicle to haul the grain back?"
Guan Yumei's eyes widened, feeling as if she were suffocating from hearing those words.
There was indeed a moment when she wanted her third brother to take the grain back to appease his anger.
She even planned to send the fourth son back to deliver a message.
But it was just a thought; she was pretty sure she had never said it out loud.
Because she was more afraid of Su Dazhi.
Su Dazhi was the one who provided her with food and clothing.
Moreover, even if she was slow-witted, she could already sense that Su Dazhi was starting to not want her anymore.
But her three younger brothers spoke with absolute certainty, their stories remarkably detailed and credible.
Could it be that she has lost her memory?
Su Dazhi looked at Guan Yumei again: "Is what they said true?"
Guan Yumei pursed her lips tightly.
In that instant, the entire police station fell completely silent.
Everyone was infected by the middle-aged man's anger, and the atmosphere even became somewhat solemn.
But Su Dazhi himself was completely unaware.
He only felt ashamed and angry.
If they weren't in the police station, his fists would have already been on Guan Yumei.
He was so angry that his hair stood on end, several veins bulged on his temples, and his whole face turned red. He asked again, "Is it true?!"
