Chapter 6 The Sucker



On the other side, Han Bin and his group were still three miles away from Han Family Village.

Han Bin left with the army and never returned home. "Village chief, this place looks different than before."

"Absolutely. This is all thanks to you."

"Please don't say that. Without your support, we wouldn't have been able to win the battle."

"Ha ha……"

"Village chief, isn't that Uncle Han Gui?"

"Let me see." The village chief squinted and looked at it: "It's your Uncle Han Gui."

Han Gui is the fastest runner in Han Family Village, and people like to ask her for help when they have an emergency.

The village chief shouted, "Han Gui, whose errand are you running errands for?"

Han Gui replied as he ran, "The director told me to go and call the police."

The village chief's heart skipped a beat when he heard the call for the police: "What? Gui Xiang asked you to call the police?" The women's director of Hanjiazhuang was surnamed Wang and named Gui Xiang.

"Um."

The village chief ran over to greet him: "What happened?"

Han Gui paused to catch his breath: "Lili from Erzhu's family is getting married today, and a girl came and said that Lili stole her man. The man Lili is marrying was betrothed to her when they were children. Everyone thought she would just cry and make a fuss and that would be the end of it. But unexpectedly, she released a snake to bite people. The snake was poisonous, and Lili's arm went numb immediately. The director saw that someone was going to die, so he asked me to call the police."

Han Bin turned and ran towards Han Family Village. He kept thinking: That woman isn't Wang Xiaoman, she isn't Wang Xiaoman. She's not that stupid, she's not that stupid. Kidnapping is illegal, releasing poisonous snakes to bite someone is even more illegal. If Han Li dies, whoever released the poisonous snakes won't live either.

The village chief shouted from behind, "Don't let that person get away!"

Han Bin has long since disappeared.

Han Gui smacked his lips: "Soldiers are different, they run faster than me. Village chief, I'm off."

"Wait a minute, did Guixiang send someone to find a doctor?"

"Yes. Village chief, I'm leaving now."

"Let's go, let's go, what's all this about?"

After Han Gui left, the village chief quickened his pace. Han Zhuang hurried after him. "Village chief, can the doctor cure the poison?"

"It should be possible. I'm just afraid..." I'm afraid that by the time the doctor arrives, Lili will already be... The village chief sighed: "Let's go quickly."

"Um."

Han Bin ran all the way. When he arrived at Han Erzhu's house and saw Xiaoman, he immediately exploded: "Wang Xiaoman, are you stupid?"

Xiaoman was staring at Liu Cheng, asking him if it was appropriate for him to marry another woman if he didn't pay back the money. Hearing someone yell, she turned her head to look. Seeing it was Han Bin, she glared at him and said, "Shut up."

"you……"

Xiaoman ignored him and continued to ask Liu Cheng, "Do you think it's appropriate?"

Han Bin realized that the situation seemed different from what Han Gui had said: "Xiao Man, why are you sitting in the seat of honor?"

Xiaoman ignored him.

"Xiaoman, is he the man you're engaged to?"

Xiaoman glanced at him and said, "Shut up."

Han Bin's parents were also having a meal at Han Erzhu's house. They saw Han Bin yell at Xiaoman as soon as he came in, and now he was pestering Xiaoman with questions, as if they were afraid that Xiaoman would kick him out.

Han Bin's mother's surname was Tang, and her name was Huihui. Tang Huihui quickly came over and pulled Han Bin away.

Han Bin also wanted to find out what was going on, so he followed his mother.

After finding a place to sit down, Tang Huihui asked in a low voice, "Do you know that girl?"

"Hmm. Is Han Li alright?"

"It's alright. Let me tell you, this is what happened..."

After hearing this, Han Bin felt relieved and began to watch the show.

Over there, Han Erzhu stepped forward: "Girl, how much does he owe your family? I'll pay it for him." It's past mealtime and they still can't start the feast. This woman can afford to wait, but they can't. Today has already been humiliating enough. If Lili can't get married, it will be even more shameful. Besides, he's too ashamed to have everyone marry off their daughters twice.

Liu Cheng didn't want the Han family to help him repay the money. But... it was over thirty li from Hongqi Village, a round trip of over sixty li, which would take quite a while even on horseback. Besides, the family didn't have much money. They would have to go out and borrow money, repay Yu Xiaoman, and then carry Han Li back from Hanjiazhuang, which would definitely be dark by then. That would not only be unlucky but also shameful. "Thank you, Father, I will repay the money to you as soon as possible."

"Let's put that aside for now, how much money do you owe them?"

"I don't know. My mother knows."

Han Erzhu looked at Xiaoman and asked, "Miss, how much money does my son-in-law owe you?"

"You have no right to ask."

"You...you're the one who made us pay back the money, but now you won't say how much we owe you. Do you just want to keep us from paying back the money so you can keep clinging to my son-in-law?"

"You're overthinking it. Did you borrow money from my family?"

"No, my son-in-law lent it to me."

"Since you didn't lend it, what right do you have to ask?"

"You! Fine, I won't ask. Liu Cheng, you ask."

"Hmm. Xiaoman, how much money do I owe you?"

Xiaoman looked at her mother, who then gave her a number.

Han Liniang immediately became anxious upon hearing this: "You're lying. Going to high school doesn't cost that much..." She wanted to say that going to high school couldn't possibly cost that much money. Besides, your family only paid half.

Han Erzhu also felt something was wrong. But she thought that Xiaoman's mother wouldn't lie in front of so many people: "Shut up. Give me the money."

Xiaoman's mother: "I'm not lying. If you don't believe me, go ask your in-laws."

"What are you asking? My daughter also..." She wanted to say that her daughter had also gone to high school, but before she could finish, Han Erzhu yelled at her: "Give me the money."

Han Liniang snorted and went back into her room.

Xiaoman looked at Liu Cheng and smiled: "Good! Very good!" So the Liu family has been treating the Wang family like suckers all these years? They just take money when they're short of it.

Liu Cheng felt that Xiaoman's smile was more frightening than Xiaoman's hitting. He felt he should say something. But seeing Xiaoman's smile, he dared not speak.

Han Liniang came out of the house with the money in her hand. She wanted to throw the money to Xiaoman but was afraid Xiaoman would beat her, so she walked over with a dark face and said, "Here you go."

Xiaoman didn't answer.

"Why didn't you answer? Is it because..."

Han Erzhu understood: "Give the money to your son-in-law."

In the end, it still ended up being given to her.

"Give it to your son-in-law if I tell you to."

"Hmph!" Han Liniang gave the money to Liu Cheng.

Liu Cheng wanted to give the money to Xiaoman, but Xiaoman didn't recognize the money and didn't take it. "Mom, count it."

"Yes." Xiaoman's mother took it and counted three times: "That's right."

Xiaoman looked at Liu Cheng and said, "My family lent you money, now you return the money to my mother. As for where the money came from, it has nothing to do with us."

Only then did everyone understand why Xiaoman hadn't taken the money from Han Liniang.

Xiaoman glanced at Han Liniang: "Let the feast begin."

Everyone thought: You've already fallen out with the Han family like this, why aren't you leaving?

Han Liniang did not move.

Xiaoman looked at her and said, "You should thank me. If I hadn't taken Liu Cheng's money, our family would have been supporting Liu Cheng through high school. Now that we've made Liu Cheng pay it back, his high school education is no longer supported by our family."

Xiaoman's mother didn't understand: Why wasn't it their family who supported him? If it weren't for them, could Liu Cheng have gone to high school? "Why wasn't it..."

Xiaoman's father tugged at her: "Whatever the child says goes."

Xiaoman glanced at his father. Did he understand, or was he simply going along with her wishes?

Han Erzhu's eyes lit up: "Thank you. Let's begin the feast."

Everyone was eating when two cars pulled up in front of Han Erzhu's house. The village chief and Han Gui jumped out of the cars, shouting, "The police are here! The police are here! Did that man get away?"
