What?
The adulterer has revealed himself?
Everyone turned around to look for the source of the sound and automatically made way.
After recognizing who it was, everyone's unanimous thought was: Impossible!
"Mo Qinghe, I know you're upset, but you don't have to take all the blame on yourself just to cover it up, do you?"
"Yes! How can I get justice for you if you do this?"
"Exactly! Some things can be forgiven, but some things cannot be covered up or forgiven. Doing so will only encourage arrogance! In the end, it won't just be your problem, it might affect the whole village."
"Yes! You're a victim too. If you're feeling upset, try to avoid this situation for a while. People have to be punished for their mistakes and bear the consequences. You can't do that for them. You should go back now!"
"Yeah yeah!"
A group of people felt sorry for Mo Qinghe, especially the men, who knew him all too well!
A man whose legs are crippled and who can no longer exercise his power as a man to rule the world must be incredibly frustrated. If his wife also betrays him, then he truly is the most miserable person in the world!
Upon hearing the news, the Mo family rushed to the scene at top speed!
If we don't hurry, something terrible might happen!
When they arrived at the scene, panting, Mo Qinghe said, "What's there for me to be upset about? The adulterer you're all shouting about catching is indeed me!"
Some people don't believe it, saying the cover-up is too obvious; do they really think they're blind?
How could someone who can't walk possibly be the one hugging and cuddling Su Nanxi as they walked into the grove?
If you're going to make up a story, at least make it decent!
Do you think they're idiots?!
If anyone else had said it, they would have believed it, but no one believed Mo Qinghe, not even the punctuation marks!
Mo Qinghe raised an eyebrow, "Then how can I convince you?"
Someone shouted, "Isn't it obvious? I'm not trying to discourage you, but just telling you the truth, they can leave, but you can't!"
Someone chimed in, "That's right! We're not stupid! If we want to clear her name, we need solid evidence! If you want to say that the adulterer is you, you need to provide proof. First, you need to know how to walk!"
Cao Laoliu also shouted at the top of his lungs, "Yes! I saw it all, it was a man who could walk!"
Su Nanxi looked at Mo Qinghe, a little worried. Could this person handle it?
Mo Qinghe squeezed her hand. "You'll definitely be able to do it!"
The Mo family arrived and all came over, forming a standoff with the others.
When the three children saw their parents arrive, they all ran to their parents' side.
When Zhao saw her two daughters with teary eyes, she felt heartbroken and her anger flared up. After comforting her daughters for a while, she started cursing at the people in front of her.
"Are you all a bunch of pig-brains? You believe everything someone says? I could say I saw your wives with someone in the woods! I could describe the exact location and details perfectly well! I could even tell you their clothes and shoes. Bah! Anyone who isn't blind knows what clothes and shoes someone is wearing when they go out! Who doesn't go out and wait for food at home? Your wives, right? Don't they have to go out and do chores? Don't they have to go up the mountain to collect firewood or something? Isn't it normal for them to be out in the mountains?"
Zhao was furious. She talked non-stop, firing off a barrage of words like a machine gun, showing no mercy whatsoever.
"Pah! You say you saw it with your own eyes and heard it with your own ears! Cao Laoliu, you walked around in circles, how could you still hear the sound? Your ears are really long! They can even turn corners! You talk like it's true, but you're a bachelor, and you believe everything you hear! Like a gossipy old woman, you love to talk nonsense without any basis!"
Cao Laoliu was indignant at being told this, "I saw it with my own eyes and heard it with my own ears, it's absolutely true!"
Zhao didn't believe it at all. "Absolutely true? Bah! Then tell me what sounds you heard? Could it have been birdsong?"
Cao Laoliu did hear it, so he felt wronged and wanted to get justice for himself. He immediately pushed through the crowd, squeezed to the front, and started to settle accounts with Zhao.
"Do you think I can't tell if it's birdsong? You make me sound so stupid! That's clearly the sound of lovemaking, and it's very loud! I may not have experienced it, but I've heard it before, right? I really saw it, I saw it from afar, I could see it very clearly! I didn't pay attention at the time, and I walked a while longer. Later, when I heard that sound again, I turned around and ran around! Before dark, I went to the field to water the vegetables and saw her come back, wearing the same clothes! There's no mistake!"
Upon hearing this, Su Nanxi immediately understood what was going on.
Zhao, however, didn't believe it. "Bullshit! How do you know it was that kind of thing? Maybe it's just someone falling into a ditch and getting hurt, making painful groans!"
Upon hearing this, everyone felt that it made some sense, but also seemed to make no sense at all.
Cao Laoliu was also anxious, his neck thickening. "I'm not stupid, how could I not tell the difference between the sounds! It was a woman's soft moans and a man's low breathing. It echoed in the mountains, it was very loud! I was so frightened by it that I ran for a while before I realized what was happening!"
Zhao was even angrier. Pointing at Cao Laoliu's nose, she said, "Are you blind and deaf?! Your brain is full of water! You bastard, I really want to slap you to death, to teach you a lesson for your long tongue and ruining people's reputations!"
Cao Laoliu quickly hid in the crowd; women are terrifying!
Mo Lao Er pulled Zhao Shi, who was extremely agitated, and when he couldn't stop her, he simply hugged her and gently comforted her, "Wife, don't argue with a fool. We haven't figured things out yet, and we haven't found the culprit!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao calmed down a bit, though she was still fuming.
Feeling safe and emboldened in the crowd, Cao Laoliu shouted, "How dare you curse me? I'm not blind or deaf! I'm telling the truth! It's just that you're unwilling to face reality!"
"Pah!" Zhao spat to the side. "You're deaf! The mute girl can't speak at all, so where did that moaning sound come from? And you're blind too? You ran away without seeing clearly, and then you're mistaking people for others!"
Upon hearing this, everyone exclaimed, "Oh, right!"
This is clearly problematic!
Cao Laoliu was also stunned. Yes, how could he forget that he couldn't make a sound?
"Even if I misheard, I saw it right. I really saw her hugging and kissing a man as they went into the bushes. It's true, no doubt about it. If I'm lying, may I be struck by lightning!"
That's a pretty strong oath.
The ancients held heaven, earth, and spirits in great awe and would not easily make oaths, because they believed that heaven would hear them and punish them accordingly.
Therefore, everyone believed Cao Laoliu's words, and Su Nanxi really did go into the grove with someone.
If Su Nanxi cannot prove her innocence, she may face severe punishment, most likely being drowning!
At this moment, Chen Qiuxia was the most pleased. She listened from the back of the crowd, feeling extremely happy. She was about to eliminate any future troubles!
The villagers demanded that Su Nanxi expose her lover and restore order to the village!
"Why can't I be the adulterer? I can walk too!"
