Zhao Youcai was completely flustered, and when he looked towards the door, he wanted to shout a question.
Did this woman practice the Lion's Roar technique? She's so short and small, how come her voice is louder than a tofu seller's?
"Mom, what are you up to now? Come home with me right now!"
The loud-voiced girl walked into the courtyard with a flushed face, quickly reached out to help the old lady up, and didn't forget to bow and apologize to the Zhao family.
"I'm really sorry, my mother sometimes doesn't think things through and has a short temper. She came without fully understanding the situation, and I'm sorry for the trouble she's caused you."
As she spoke, the rosy-faced girl pointed to her head, earnestly hoping that the Zhao family would not hold it against her.
The other person standing at the door was none other than Zhao Jianfei, the perverted college student the troublemaking old lady had accused of watching her daughter defecate in the middle of the night.
The old lady's temper flared up, and she slapped her daughter's hand away.
"How could I have given birth to such a good-for-nothing! A perfectly healthy young woman, with her bare buttocks seen by some random man, and she doesn't even dare to ask for justice. This scoundrel is even more smug now, next time he'll sneak into your house in the middle of the night to take advantage of you. Do you want to be a slut who gets pregnant out of wedlock and is talked about and cursed behind her back?"
The old lady talked for so long that she almost choked on her breath again, panting heavily like a donkey braying.
Zhao Jianfei clenched his fists in anger.
That old lady's words are really awful. She's a college graduate from a prestigious university, and she's seen far more different types of young women than this old lady.
Why doesn't she take a piss and look at herself in the mirror? What is it about her daughter that could attract his attention?
If he hadn't been wandering around town yesterday, trying to find out which leader's house his father was having dinner and drinks at, would he have taken a shortcut and discovered someone defecating in the middle of the night in the wilderness?
To be honest, he was really innocent. He didn't even see the woman's butt, and he was almost scared out of his wits by her loud voice.
Before he could even ask them for compensation for emotional distress, they turned around and tried to extort money from him.
"Old lady, can't you be reasonable? I just happened to be passing by. Why is your daughter out in the wilderness waiting to seduce some random man instead of taking a dump at home in the middle of the night?"
As Zhao Jianfei spoke, he felt more and more that he had found the right direction, and his voice grew louder.
"If you ask me, I'd say your daughter was having a secret rendezvous with some random guy late at night. She didn't see him, but instead ran into me and got startled. In her panic, she started grabbing at me."
The old lady was so angry that her face turned from a liverish color to a purple eggplant, and her outstretched arm looked as fragile and easily broken as an old tree branch in winter.
"You're such a big young man, don't you have any shame! To insult a young, unmarried woman like that!"
The familiar scene of slapping her thigh and howling reappeared, and the old lady, who had finally been pulled up, sat down on the ground again.
Unlike before, this time it wasn't just thunder without rain; tears streamed down like a string of pearls.
Zhao Youcai's courtyard once again became the focus of the entire Zhao Family Village. Anyone who didn't know better would think that a new tourist attraction had been opened in Zhao Family Village.
Zhao Youcai rubbed his temples, wondering why other people's families didn't have so many troubles.
Seeing the children standing there, not knowing what to say, Zhao Youcai could only walk helplessly to them with his hands behind his back and stand there, sighing inwardly.
Sigh, I'm still too young. Being inexperienced is a disadvantage; I can't even handle something as simple as this. I still need to practice.
Zhao Youcai looked directly at the brigade leader who had somehow appeared at his doorstep, and with a slur of his lips, he uttered only four words.
"Report it to the police."
The old woman, who was busy crying loudly, hiccuped, then suddenly stopped, her cloudy eyes darting around.
Zhao Youcai could tell from her expression that the old lady must know something inside.
The ungrateful youngest brother admitted that he saw the loud-voiced girl in the wild last night, and perhaps she really was taking a dump in the wild.
Whether they saw it or not, or how much they saw, is a matter for the two young people to decide.
How did the old lady find out? Was she attracted by the loud-voiced girl's shout? Or did she go out with her daughter and happen to witness this scene?
He didn't think the mother and daughter had planned it on purpose, after all, Zhao Jianfei wasn't the kind of person who would go for walks in the wild all the time.
Zhao Youcai said he would report it to the police, so it definitely will be reported to the police.
Zhao Jianfei never imagined that he would one day be personally taken to the police station by his own father.
My heart sank instantly.
It seems I hurt my father too much last time, otherwise how could he have watched his son be taken away with him?
Zhao Youcai had no idea that his youngest son had imagined so much, but given the current situation, it was definitely the best to let the police handle it.
Otherwise, who knows how this crazy woman would try to argue her way out of this mess.
Moreover, as long as Zhao Jianfei can explain the whole story clearly, he can walk out of the police station openly and honestly.
Upon seeing Zhao Jianfei about to be taken away, the villagers who had come to watch immediately erupted in an uproar.
"Tsk tsk tsk, a college student got taken to the police station. I told you studying was useless!"
"What a tragedy! After all these years of hard work raising him, this is the kind of thing we've produced. Even his own father couldn't stand it anymore and had to turn against his own family for the greater good."
"No wonder that old man Zhao Youcai has such good relationships with all those big shots in town. Who among us can match his level of awareness?"
"If you ask me, we've all misunderstood Zhao Youcai before. This old man is such a good person. Why did we spread rumors that he was such a scoundrel?"
"Who knows which bastard spread this rumor? Luckily, I'm discerning and didn't believe it at all!"
...
Hearing the chaotic noise around him, Zhao Youcai felt even more annoyed. What was going on every day?
They kicked his son into the ditch and then stuffed the old geezer into their pocket.
These villagers really lived up to the old saying: it's human nature to seek advantage and avoid harm.
It's likely that the team leader briefly revealed his business dealings with the farm to these people, and they were only flattering him to avoid offending him.
If you can praise him, then praise him. But what's the point of praising him while simultaneously criticizing his son?
He intended to teach his youngest son a lesson, but after all, this ungrateful wretch was still family, and it was always uncomfortable to be pointed at like that.
To be honest, if it weren't for this ungrateful brat's serious personality problems, Zhao Youcai would have already recruited him to join his business.
After all, he was an educated man, quick-witted, and had seen more of the world than the children who farmed at home.
Moreover, the social circles of college students are different from those of farm children in villages; you never know which alumnus might become a valuable connection.
Zhao Youcai was too lazy to argue with the gossipy women in the village. He just hoped that Zhao Jianfei, that ingrate, would use his rusty brain to think things through and decide what he could and couldn't do.
Zhao Youcai didn't have a moment to catch his breath. With the brigade leader standing on his left and the accountant on his right, he was dragged out.
"Now that you've taken care of your family matters, it's time to deal with the important village affairs. You're the most important person here, so you absolutely must be there."
