Chapter 152 Asking Mu Yunzhao to Testify
"Wait."
Seeing Li Wenjing about to open the door, Lin Zhiyi hurriedly shouted.
"Dad, Mom, Big Sister-in-law, Second Sister-in-law, and Fang Mama, please take the children and go inside first."
Mrs. Song was worried about Lin Zhiyi, "Zhizhi, you go in too."
"Mom, I'm fine. We have weapons in our hands. Have you forgotten?"
Mrs. Song naturally understood what Lin Zhiyi was talking about.
On the way to exile, Zhizhi said that she was afraid of encountering assassins, so she gave several people some electric batons.
But Mrs. Song was still a little worried because she hadn't tried its power.
"Mom, you can go in without worry. I'll be fine with my elder and second brothers here. You being here will only distract them."
Just then, the voices of villagers outside were heard.
"Brother Lin Fu, are you at home?"
When Lin Fu heard Ma Cunzheng's voice, he was moved, "Ma Cunzheng, I'm here."
"Don't be afraid, Brother Lin. Let's work together to drive the wolves out of the village."
Ma Cunzheng was also surprised that the wolves besieged the Lin family.
Arima Village took the lead, and the other villagers echoed, "Yes, let's all work together to drive away the wolves."
Another wolf howl.
The leading male wolf seemed to be giving orders, and then several wolves kept banging on the Lin family's gate.
Zhaocai and Jinbao could no longer stay in the yard and started howling at the door, wanting to go out.
When the villagers were about to fight the wolf with their farm tools, the gate of the Lin family opened.
Zhaocai and Jinbao ran out quickly and came to the female wolf and played around non-stop.
The female wolf licked Zhaocai and Jinbao, and then there was another wolf howl. The leading male and female wolves turned around and left, and Zhaocai and Jinbao also followed the wolf pack.
Everyone in the village was stunned.
"What's going on?"
"The wolves just left so easily?"
"It seems the she-wolf came into the village looking for her cubs. When she saw that her cubs were still alive and well, she naturally left."
"Everyone says wolves are evil, but this wolf today is quite clever and didn't attack anyone easily..."
Ma Cunzheng stepped forward and said, "Brother Lin, what's going on? Why are there wolf cubs in your family?"
Lin Fu sighed and explained, "Brother Ma, I don't know who released these two wolf cubs into our yard these past few days. At first, we thought they were dogs, but after careful observation, we realized they were wolves. We were afraid of retaliation from the mother wolf, so we quickly sent them back to the mountain..."
Lin Fu told what happened at Zhaocai and Jinbao's home a few days ago.
"I don't know why they came only now. The children thought the mother wolf was dead and wanted to feed her for a few more days before sending her back to the mountain. Who would have thought that the mother wolf would come back now?"
Ma Cunzheng frowned when he heard this, "Did your family offend someone?"
"No, I haven't had any conflicts with anyone."
Lin Zhiyi said: "If we talk about conflict, there is one person."
Lin Zhiyi exaggerated the story of how Cuicui went to the county to take a carriage and was not picked up on the way back, and told it to Ma Cunzheng and the villagers.
Ma Cunzheng's face suddenly darkened, "This Cuicui, I'll go find her."
The villagers were also furious when they heard this. "So, maybe Cuicui brought the wolf cub down the mountain and deliberately framed the Lin family? She's so vicious."
"How can you be so vicious at such a young age?"
"The Lin family was so kind as to give her a ride, but she almost lost her life because of this. Isn't this the farmer and the snake?"
"That's right. People like this are a nuisance in the village..."
Seeing Ma Cun striding towards Cuicui's house, the villagers followed him.
They wanted Cuicui to give an explanation.
Otherwise, they would not dare to live in the same village with such a vicious family.
At this time, Mu Yunzhao was gloating.
The wolves are coming down the mountain, and the Lin family is in trouble.
If they take the wolf cub away, the wolf pack will tear them to pieces.
She finally got rid of the anger she had endured from Lin Zhiyi for so many days.
In order to collect herbs to pay off her debt, she went to the mountain every day. Although she did not collect any precious herbs, she collected some that were worth some money. She sold the herbs and went to the embroidery shop to pay off her debt.
After going to the embroidery shop many times to plead their case, the shop finally agreed to give her some time.
She is still doing embroidery at home, thinking that after embroidering for a while, she will go to the mountains to collect medicinal herbs. After saving up some time, she will be able to pay back the one hundred taels.
Just then, she heard a noise from next door.
She pricked up her ears and listened, and it turned out to be Cuicui's house next door.
Why did all the villagers go to Cuicui's house? Mu Yunzhao was puzzled.
But she didn't care about it and continued to do her embroidery work.
Although she didn't want to meddle in other people's business, trouble still came to her.
Cuicui came with the villagers.
Tong's voice was heard outside: "Ma Cunzheng, why are you here? Come in and talk."
"No, I came here today to ask Miss Mu some questions."
Tong saw that Ma Cunzheng was speaking in a bad tone, and secretly cursed Mu Yunzhao, wondering if he had caused trouble again.
She called out to Mu Yunzhao's room, "Zhaozhao, come out."
Mu Yunzhao's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that she was seen by the villagers when she brought the wolf cub back?
That shouldn't be the case. She observed her surroundings when she did it.
But people were waiting outside, so she had to put down her work and go out.
"Uncle Ma, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Seeing so many villagers in the Mu family's yard, Mu Yunzhao was very nervous. Even if someone saw her, she could not admit it. Otherwise, these villagers would know that she was the one who carried the wolf cub down the mountain, which would bring revenge from the wolves, and they would definitely not tolerate her.
Cuicui said, "Miss Mu, please testify for me. I went to the Lin family to settle the score with them for the last carriage incident. I was just venting my anger on you because they were too bullying."
Mu Yunzhao was shocked when she heard this. It turned out that Ma Cunzheng didn't suspect her, but suspected Cuicui.
They suspected that Cuicui brought the wolf cub down the mountain out of resentment because of the conflict she had with the Lin family last time.
Mu Yunzhao's face darkened immediately. "Cui Cui, what are you talking about? Sister Lin and I have always been good friends. Why are you venting my anger?"
Cuicui was a little confused when she heard this. "Ms. Mu, that's not what you said before. You said that Miss Lin was very vicious and bullied you a lot during your exile. You almost died on the road because of it..."
"You're talking nonsense! When did I ever say that? Sister Lin and I are close friends. We've been good friends since we were kids. How could there be a conflict?"
Tong narrowed her eyes and glanced at Mu Yunzhao, and immediately understood the reason.
Although she doesn't like this aunt, she represents their Mu family after all.
She quickly agreed, "Yes, Zhao Zhao and Miss Lin are close friends. They are as close as sisters."
Cui Cui widened her eyes in disbelief.
How come Miss Mu changes so quickly?
"Cui Cui, I wanted to tell you something last time. You clearly took the Lin family's carriage, but not only did you not say thank you, you also went to the Lin family and made a scene, and even threatened to make the Lin family's life a living hell and that they could no longer stay in the village. Do you know that? I thought you were terrible when I heard that..."
Mu Yunzhao's words were sincere. She spoke softly and gently, and it was obvious that she was a timid girl, so the villagers believed her.
“You! You!”
Cuicui felt extremely aggrieved at this time.
She couldn't utter a word in rebuttal.
Ma Cunzheng's face turned pale. "Cui Cui, do you have anything else to say? If you don't give me an explanation, just because you framed someone with the wolf cub, you can expel them from Xishui Village."
