Unfortunately, before she could even squeeze in, she was spotted by the people at that table.
"Oh, isn't this Wang Guilan, Zhao Youcai's former in-law? You've been released and haven't even gone home before coming over for this feast?"
"They really have a big face. If I had done something bad and ended up in jail, I would have killed myself by now. Unlike someone, whose skin is thicker than a city wall."
"Who says otherwise? They smelled rotten and still came over to eat. Fine, they'll eat, but why are they crowding our table? They must have developed a good habit in prison—they can't stand not eating other people's leftovers."
...
The commotion grew louder and louder, quickly attracting everyone's attention.
Zhao Youcai couldn't pretend he hadn't seen the old lady, so he could only walk over slowly with a stern face, staring coldly at Wang Guilan.
Wang Guilan was a little embarrassed at this moment. She hadn't expected that the people from Zhaojiagou would have such sharp eyes.
It's fair to say that Wang Guilan was unlucky.
Zhao Youcai's family was wealthy and had no shortage of meat and vegetables, so the whole village came to celebrate their wedding banquet.
This table has the fewest people, and the reason is quite simple.
Which village doesn't have a few annoying gossipy women?
When these women got together, any woman who lived a normal life and didn't gossip wouldn't want to sit with them.
These women are a combination of cunning, laziness, gluttony, and shrewdness; their meals together are more exciting than the palace intrigues of ancient times.
They were all worried that someone might sneak away their favorite dishes when they weren't looking.
Therefore, if someone suddenly joins the fray and tries to eat the dish they've been eyeing for a long time, they will naturally be attacked by everyone.
It just so happened that the two women at the table had witnessed Wang Guilan causing trouble at Zhao Youcai's house some time ago, so they directly pointed out the other party's identity.
Some people are quick-witted and immediately grasp the key point.
What's the point of staring at this table of leftovers? If we dragged out this old hag and sold her to Zhao Youcai, we could get two plates of untouched good food to take home and eat.
Seeing that she couldn't eat the food today, Wang Guilan got angry.
The moment he saw someone carrying a large tray of food out of the kitchen, he suddenly grinned and burst into laughter.
Zhao Youcai was baffled by the old woman's laughter. He frowned, thinking that this old hag was sick, and seriously so.
"Zhao Youcai, you're finished, your whole family is finished."
Zhao Youcai looked at the old fool in front of him with a face full of indescribable emotions.
Some people are shockingly stupid, so bad that everyone knows it, yet they still think they're incredibly smart. I don't know where they got the courage.
How is this any different from admitting guilt without being asked?
She's an idiot; don't get infected with her stupidity by dealing with her.
At this moment, Captain Qi put down his wine glass, got up and walked over, standing next to Zhao Youcai.
Wang Guilan was still afraid of Captain Qi, after all, he was the one who led people to take her and her son away.
But soon, the fear and dread in Wang Guilan's eyes were replaced by excitement, and her eyes shone as she looked at Captain Qi.
Wang Guilan thought to herself:
My son hasn't been discovered for so long, he must have succeeded. If this low-ranking police officer dies at Zhao Youcai's house, Zhao Youcai will definitely be arrested and imprisoned, and he'll have to pay with his life.
Everyone who makes me angry, no matter who they are, should die here. How wonderful!
Wang Guilan trembled with excitement, overwhelmed by a sense of vengeful pleasure and confidence, her voice cracking.
"Aren't the people of Zhao Family Village supposed to be very united? I wonder if you'll still be united after you've all been eaten to death, all buried in the same pit, hahahahaha!"
But before Wang Guilan could continue to get excited, something happened right before her eyes that instantly chilled her to the bone.
Sun Tiezhu and Sun Tiedan had bruises and swelling all over their faces, clearly indicating that they had been deliberately targeted.
At this moment, his arms were twisted behind his back and tied up. He staggered and was kicked in front of Wang Guilan.
"This is the first time I've ever seen someone give rat poison as a gift. What's wrong with you? You secretly bought twenty pounds of rat poison on the black market. Do you really think the people selling rat poison on the black market don't report it to the authorities?"
Everyone knows that the black market shouldn't exist, since it's a gathering place for speculation and profiteering.
But they are all human, and they know that the black market exists to make things easier for those who have tickets but can't buy anything.
How many women in families don't have enough milk after giving birth, and can't buy formula because they don't have the necessary coupons?
A perfectly healthy child died from illness caused by drinking rice cereal with little nutritional value. Who could remain completely unmoved?
Therefore, everyone turns a blind eye to the black market. Before occasional surprise inspections, they would give a heads-up to people they knew, so that they could evacuate the crowd as soon as possible.
However, there are always a few unlucky ones who get caught, after all, it's their job, and they have to report back to their superiors.
Selling rat poison isn't unusual, but the fact that all the rat poison was bought up by the same person must have been frightening for the seller.
The man wasn't afraid that the rat poison would be used for poisoning, but rather that someone might use it to commit suicide.
If the investigation into the source of the rat poison leads back to him, he will definitely have to pay with his life.
Therefore, some police officers had been secretly observing and following them, and they happened to meet at Zhao Youcai's wedding banquet.
Sun Tiezhu and Sun Tiedan both looked utterly defeated, knowing that they were doomed.
But Wang Guilan was like a mad lioness at this moment. She didn't know where she got the strength, but she rushed over and ripped away the policeman who was about to kick her son.
His eyes widened, and he glared fiercely at Zhao Youcai with red eyes.
"I've never seen such a heartless man!"
Zhao Youcai was almost laughing in anger.
Shouldn't we listen to what she's saying? This isn't the way to turn the tables.
That's definitely the logic of a madman; normal people can't understand it.
Wang Guilan reached out and tightly protected her son. "We just came to scare Zhao Youcai. Who told him to send his son-in-law to jail? Besides, you're all fine, aren't you? You're both alive and well, just a little frightened. That means my son didn't do anything wrong, he was just joking. Why are you tying him up like this and beating him!"
Zhao Youcai's icy gaze was fixed on her. "What do you mean? Does your son have to pay the price only when several people die in Zhao Family Village?"
"Then I'll beat your son half to death in front of you, then slowly stab him with a knife until he's almost bled to death, then take him to the hospital for emergency treatment to keep him alive. Then I'll tell you that no one died, and that it was just a joke, okay?"
