He stared at the person beside him and shook his head. "Impossible! Zhao Yi was beaten to death ten years ago. How could he possibly be Zhao Yi?"
"Brother Gousheng, I'm telling the truth. Although I don't know how he's still alive... he is my uncle!"
When Erpang saw Zhao Yi, he was just as excited as Wu Gousheng, and couldn't believe it.
However, this person had the same birthmark as his uncle, knew who he was, and was familiar with his aunt's family situation.
Aside from his deceased uncle, he couldn't imagine anyone else who looked so much like him.
“If he is Zhao Yi, then who died ten years ago?” Wu Gousheng frowned.
He glanced at "Zhao Yi" a few more times, his eyes filled with disgust. "Even if he is Zhao Yi, he must be handed over to the authorities! Ten years ago, he was flogged for stealing other people's property but didn't die. Now he should be brought to justice just the same!"
"I know, I didn't say I wouldn't send him off, but... could you please let him go back to Lotus Village? My aunt and cousin miss my uncle terribly..." Erpang pleaded.
"What good would it do to see them? Would it just cause them more trouble?" Wu Gousheng questioned.

Erpang has never been in such a predicament as he is now.
He knew that Wu Gousheng was absolutely right.
But he really couldn't bear to watch his uncle be arrested and beaten to death again.
Even if my uncle was wrong back then.
However, he had heard his parents say that his aunt was seriously ill at that time, and they had no money to buy medicine. It seemed that she was about to die!
He believed that his uncle was forced into this situation, which is why he did it.
The confrontation between Erpang and Wu Gousheng caused the person sitting in the middle to lower his head and let out a "woo-woo" sob.
Wan Qiqi watched quietly, gradually figuring out what had happened.
She tapped the table, looked up at the two people facing off, and asked, "Shouldn't you listen to what he has to say?"
