Qin Zijin raised his eyebrows when he heard He Qiu's words.
What a coincidence, this number is exactly the amount that Tang Aimin compensated Tang Shen that day.
If He Qiu said that he didn't do it on purpose, no one would believe him.
Qin Zijin smiled coldly, stood in front of Tang Can, and walked to the door. "It's impossible to compensate you with money. Since you insist that I seduced Zhao He, that's fine. Can someone please help call the village chief? It's better for us to handle this matter in a fair and impartial manner."
When He Qiu heard that he was going to find the village chief, he immediately became anxious.
Everyone in the village knew that Zhao Mantang was famous for being fair and strict, without any mercy, and everything had to be done according to the rules.
If the matter is brought to his attention, will she ask for any compensation?
If things go wrong, Zhao He will be criticized every time he goes out.
"Why are you looking for the village chief? What? It's not enough that you seduced Zhao He, you also have an affair with the village chief, right? Do you really think that the village chief will always side with you?" He Qiu glared at Qin Zijin angrily. If there weren't so many people around, he would have wanted to go up and attack him.
"He Qiu! What the hell are you spewing out of your mouth?" He Qiu had just finished speaking, and before Qin Zijin could open her mouth to refute, a tall, thin woman walked out of the crowd.
The woman has high cheekbones and looks very mean.
A pair of slanted eyes were looking at He Qiu angrily at this moment.
Qin Zijin naturally recognized the person at a glance.
Zhao Mantang's daughter-in-law Huang Xiaodong.
Huang Xiaodong is tall, about 1.7 meters tall, and standing in front of He Qiu, he forms a sharp contrast.
Seeing Huang Xiaodong, He Qiu was also a little scared.
But it was only for a moment, and then he spoke again with confidence: "Is what I said wrong? This woman came to our village and seduced how many men? She was asked to work in the fields, and then she pretended to be weak and fainted to gain sympathy!"
"She's been here for so many years, and she's never done any hard work! The village chief even assigned her the easiest job. Who else in the village gets such treatment?"
"There's more than one educated youth from our village who went to the countryside, right? Who in the city isn't a young lady? She's the only one who's so proud and wants to be flattered and given to in every way!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Huang Xiaodong's expression suddenly changed, and the way he looked at Qin Zijin became different.
Zhao Mantang really takes good care of Qin Zijin's family.
The house they live in now was given to them temporarily at Zhao Mantang's request. Otherwise, Tang Can and his wife, who were kicked out of their home, would have nowhere to stay and would probably have to live in the cowshed temporarily.
Seeing that Huang Xiaodong stopped talking, He Qiu immediately realized that he had made the right bet.
Qin Zijin is very attractive and many women in the village regard her as an enemy. Huang Xiaodong doesn't say it, but he must be feeling uncomfortable in his heart.
She smiled coldly and looked at Qin Zijin, "Don't think anyone will back you up! You must have an explanation for injuring my son today! If you don't, I will never let you go!"
Qin Zijin remained unmoved and had no intention of speaking.
She had just seen that Zhao Gang had run out of the crowd, probably to find Zhao Mantang.
Miao Cuicui was still winking at her at this moment, so she naturally didn't want to say much. She waited until someone arrived and then spoke slowly.
Soon Zhao Mantang came over in a hurry.
It can be seen that he should be working at this time.
When I came, there was still a lot of mud on my body.
As soon as he came over, he hurriedly asked, "Who's causing trouble again? Huh?"
Huang Xiaodong looked at Zhao Mantang coming over and his expression suddenly became even uglier.
He Qiu's expression changed, and then he burst into tears, accusing Qin Zijin and Tang Can of their crimes while crying: "Village Chief, you are finally here, you have to take charge of our Zhao He! Qin Zijin seduced our Zhao He, and unexpectedly ran into Tang Can. She actually turned the tables and slandered our Zhao He for being a hooligan! How could our Zhao He be such a person?"
"That Tang Shen believed Qin Zijin's words without asking why, and even beat up our Zhao He! His leg is broken! We don't know if he has any internal injuries. Why is my life so miserable? I only have this one son. If anything happens to him, how am I going to live?"
He Qiu sat down on the ground crying, howling and slapping the ground.
Qin Zijin's mouth twitched when he saw this.
She now saw how shameless these people could be.
Zhao Mantang looked at He Qiu's appearance, then glanced at Zhao He, whose face was bruised and swollen, before looking at Qin Zijin and Tang Can. "You two, tell me what happened! How did you beat him up?"
"Village chief, fellow villagers, please come and give me your judgment." Seeing that most people had arrived, Qin Zijin rubbed his eyes and squeezed out a few tears.
Everyone was originally talking noisily, but now they all quieted down and looked at Qin Zijin.
Qin Zijin's face was pale and her eyes were red. The men and women present couldn't help but feel sympathy for her.
"Since I came to Shangao Village seven years ago and married Tang Can, have I ever gotten close to any male comrade in the village? Have any bad rumors been spread?" Qin Zijin spoke with a trembling voice, aggrieved.
The others looked at each other.
Apart from anything else, although Qin Zijin is good-looking, many women are wary of her, fearing that she will seduce their men.
However, after she came to Shangao Village, she rarely got close to the men in the village. She basically avoided them and would never be alone with them if she could avoid it.
This became even more so after she married Tang Shen, and she hardly ever left the house.
"Everyone, judge for yourself. If you were to choose between Zhao He and Tang Can, who would you choose? Even if Tang Can's legs aren't working properly right now, if you were to choose between the two, would you choose Zhao He?"
"I left Tang Shen alone and went to seduce him. What am I trying to achieve?"
"Everyone in the village knows Zhao He better than I do, so there's no need for me to explain."
"I originally thought that since we're all from the same village, it's better to have less trouble than more. As long as Zhao He doesn't bother me again, I'll pretend nothing happened."
"I just didn't expect them to go so far! Not only did they want to extort money from my family, they also wanted to damage my reputation! How am I going to live after being slammed with this kind of dirty water? How will my children ever face the world?"
"I hope the village chief and all the villagers will make the decision for me. Otherwise, I can only die to prove my innocence!"
Qin Zijin spoke in great sorrow, looking as if he was about to die.
