"Are you sure you didn't spread this flower message?"
Gu An'an took a step forward, and Li Yumei took a step back, afraid that Gu An'an would start a second round. "Don't come any closer. I didn't do it, and that's it. You can't force a confession out of me."
"Since this has nothing to do with you, why do you keep saying you've never been to her house? Unless you specifically went there to find her, you wouldn't subconsciously deny it."
Although Li Yumei was beaten badly by Liu Chunhua, everyone could still see the fear and guilt in her shrunken pupils. Now, there was nothing they couldn't understand.
"Yes! I was just about to carry firewood back to cook when she suddenly walked by and muttered about it. Everyone knows my personality; of course I had to ask her a few questions after hearing something like that. What was she called again?"
Liu Chunhua tried hard to recall, and finally managed to squeeze out a sentence, "Yes, she was trying to lure me into making a mistake. How can we let such a scheming person continue to live in our village? This time she harmed me, but what about next time? Will she harm you, will she harm the children in the family?"
Children are the root of everyone's life. When children are mentioned, everyone's mind immediately becomes focused, and they all start to agree.
"I heard that Li, the educated youth, coveted Gu and the others' things and didn't want them to live separately, which led to a conflict. Could she be doing all this today to get revenge?"
"Really? She paid to rent the room next door, so it's only right that she move out to eat and live there. It was her own fault, so how can she have the nerve to retaliate against others?"
"Who knows! Some people are just heartless and wicked. I think it's definitely a lie to say that a man came out of Gu Zhiqing's compound."
Upon hearing this, Li Yumei was furious. After this incident, her dignity had been ripped off and trampled on. Why should Gu An'an and Zhou Yue be able to escape unscathed?
And Qin Xue, if it weren't for her talking in her sleep, how could I have gone out and spread rumors, getting myself into all this trouble?
Talking in his sleep? Is it possible that it wasn't talking in his sleep at all, but rather a trap set by Qin Xue for herself?
The more Li Yumei thought about it, the more likely it seemed. She thought she was the clever one, but she didn't realize that she had already stepped into someone else's trap.
grass!
Li Yumei's mind was clearer than ever before. She had always thought she was smart, but she never expected to have fallen into someone else's trap.
"No, I didn't make this up."
Li Yumei ran into the house and pulled Qin Xue, who was hiding outside the door, out. "She told us that she saw a man running out from next door this morning."
Li Yumei had worked on the farm in Xiaowang Village for several years. Even if she liked to slack off, her strength was still far superior to Qin Xue's. Qin Xue tried to break free, but Li Yumei still dragged her out of the house.
"Brother Yuan, Brother Yuan."
Xie Yuan frowned as he watched this scene. Faced with Qin Xue's plea for help, his feet seemed to be frozen in place, and he didn't take a single step forward, let alone plead for her.
"You did it yourself, why did you call Xie Zhiqing?"
Then she looked at the village chief's wife and said, "Lin and Zhang also heard it. Qin Xue usually sleeps very late, but last night she went back to her room after dinner. As soon as we lay down, she started talking in her sleep about this very thing. I suspect she wasn't asleep at all and was deliberately telling us so that we would target Gu and Zhou."
After saying that, fearing that the villagers wouldn't believe her, she quickly added, "She came from the same place as Zhou Zhiqing and Xie Zhiqing. She liked Xie Zhiqing, but Xie Zhiqing kept pursuing Zhou Zhiqing, so she disliked Zhou Zhiqing. Yes! She wanted to ruin Zhou Zhiqing so that Xie Zhiqing could be with her."
The village chief's wife looked at Lin Qingqing and Zhang Zhaodi, and Zhang Zhaodi quickly said, "I did hear this from Qin Zhiqing."
"I was quite sleepy last night. I vaguely remember hearing Qin Zhiqing mention this, but I don't know anything else." Lin Qingqing watched the show quietly, not wanting to get involved in anything dirty.
Seeing this, Qin Xue could only continue to argue, "I did see a man's figure coming out from next door, but I really didn't mean any harm. I was just afraid that Xiaoyue would get lost, but I didn't dare to go to Xiaoyue's house to tell her. I didn't expect to talk in my sleep."
"It's my fault, it's all my fault."
As she spoke, Qin Xue started slapping herself, but the force... well, those who know, know. Even if she slapped herself a thousand times, she probably wouldn't even turn red.
Li Yumei was almost vomiting from her affected mannerisms, and without saying a word, she rushed forward and started another fight.
"Brother Yuan, help me!"
Qin Xue protected her face while pleading for help from Xie Yuan, but the more she called out to him, the darker Xie Yuan's face became.
If he had known Qin Xue was so stupid, he really wouldn't have wanted to bring her along.
Xie Yuan regretted it, but there's no going back.
Amid Qin Xue's repeated cries for help and the strange looks from the crowd, Xie Yuan could only step forward and say, "Xiao Xue probably didn't do it on purpose, stop hitting her."
Li Yumei completely ignored him, her hands still busy, and she cursed him rudely, "Why are you pretending to be a good person now? If you weren't so clingy with both of them, would that idiot Qin Xue have targeted Zhou Zhiqing? I think it's all your fault."
These words were like a slap in Xie Yuan's face. Xie Yuan's hands, which were tucked into his sleeves, clenched into fists, and his veins bulged, but his face still maintained that gentle and refined appearance.
"Xiaoxue and I have a relationship like siblings; you've misunderstood."
Zhou Yue hasn't given up yet, and now she can only continue to deny it.
At this moment, Qin Xue was truly heartbroken.
Zhou Yue, watching all this, could only sneer, while also feeling sorry for Gu An'an. If it weren't for her, Gu An'an wouldn't have suffered this undeserved disaster.
"fine."
Then she looked at the village chief's wife and said, "Auntie, the person she saw should be Uncle Lao Nian. He was worried that we would need it urgently, so he brought the wooden basin over early yesterday morning."
Before the village chief's wife could even speak, some villagers rushed to Wang Laonian's house. Wang Laonian was working on something at home when he heard that Gu An'an had suffered an undeserved misfortune because of him, so he dropped his things and ran away.
As soon as he arrived, Wang Laonian recounted what had happened: "After delivering the item, I rushed back to work. It was no more than three minutes. I never expected that delivering something could cause such trouble."
Once the matter became clear, the public's condemnation of the three individuals intensified.
At this point, Qin Xue no longer felt she was wrong; instead, she began to hate Wang Laonian, who had testified for Gu An'an.
Gu An'an remained expressionless, but the aura emanating from her instilled fear in the three of them. "Now that things are clear, let's talk about how to handle this?"
