A child with a broken knee pointed at Shen Jinbao's clothes and said, "That's him! He was wearing the same clothes just now!"
The child's mother pointed at Hu Cuifen and angrily said, "You heard it, it was your son who injured my son. Pay us money, pay for our medicine now."
Shen Jinbao was only thinking about the contents of the book. He turned around and looked at the child fiercely, "Get out! If you make any more noise, I'll beat you up!"
The child's mother laughed when she heard this. "Oh, Hu Cuifen, your son has admitted it himself. Hurry up and pay me for my medical expenses, or I'll go to the brigade headquarters and sue you!"
Hu Cuifen was furious. She refused to give him the money even though he had it. She sat down on the ground and started cursing. "Everyone, come and judge for me! Zhuzi's mother is trying to cheat my family out of money!"
She was the most violent person in the team, but the other party was not easy to deal with and immediately pulled her son to kneel on the ground.
"My son is so pitiful! He was beaten by Shen Jinbao, and he admitted it, but his mother is still playing dirty and refusing to admit it!"
As the two women were fighting and throwing tantrums, Chen Yinhua came out of the house with disheveled hair, "Mom, I'm starving. I feel dizzy."
She felt pain in her legs and it seemed like she had slept for a long time.
"You little bitch, you can't cook for yourself."
Chen Yinhua was busy arguing and had no time to pay attention to her. Just after she finished scolding, there was a thud behind her and Chen Yinhua fell to the ground.
Seeing this, the women who came to cause trouble for Hu Cuifen had no choice but to take their sons and run away.
Hu Cuifen ran back to the house, helped her daughter up, and called out to Shen Jinbao, "Jinbao, come and help, help your second sister up."
Shen Jinbao was looking for a book, but couldn't find it. He ran out of the bedroom in frustration and rode his bicycle to the brigade headquarters.
At this moment, it was already late, his eyesight was poor, and he was in a panic and rushed into the rice field not far from the door.
Upon hearing the noise, Hu Cuifen quickly abandoned her daughter to save her son.
When he was going out, he tripped over the threshold and fell heavily.
On the other side, Chen Tan has returned home, with a look of both joy and annoyance on his face.
The matter in the valley has come to a successful conclusion. Next, it depends on how Shang Yuantang investigates this matter.
After sending Shang Yuantang, whom she was thinking about, back to her, he did not return to the county town. Instead, he asked his subordinates to carry the wild animals picked up in the valley and the black wolfhound killed by Qin Dashun to the tea mountain farm.
The scenery of the tea mountain is really as beautiful as a fairyland. When the sun sets over the hillside, half of the sky is dyed red by the crimson glow, hanging on the green mountain top, gorgeous and ethereal.
At the foot of the tea mountain, there are several winding rivers and streams that converge into the low-lying valley in the middle, forming a long and narrow lake.
The houses on the tea farm are built on a low hillside next to the lake. They have mud walls and thatched roofs. There are five rows of houses with more than 60 rooms.
The house is so short and cramped that I can't even stand up straight after entering.
Some walls were cracked, so they were blocked with wooden boards. It was okay in the summer, but in the winter, with the cold wind howling, there was no difference between inside and outside the house.
Looking at the dilapidated house, Shang Yuantang's eyes flashed with pity.
He looked at Fang Shiliang who was receiving him and said, "Bring Lu Zhongqing and Song Muzhi here, and the others should stay away."
Fang Shiliang, who was in charge of the tea mountain's security, looked at Shang Yuantang and the others' attire and the black wolfhound, and panic flashed in his eyes.
After hearing this, he immediately sent someone to report the matter to Fang Desheng who was working in the tea forest, and then took Shang Yuantang to the dining hall next to the cafeteria.
The people in their tea mountain all eat together, which is why Qin Li works so hard to make money from breeding. He raises more than 300 people.
Shang Yuantang walked along with a cold expression, showing no emotion. Ten of his subordinates took Qin Dashun and the others away.
The rest of the people followed him here.
They released the wild animals and asked Fang Shiliang to bring the people over quickly.
Fang Shiliang still hasn't figured out their identities, and can only guess that they are not ordinary based on the badges on their clothes.
The thought that they might have discovered something in the valley made it almost impossible to hide the panic in my heart.
Soon, Fang Desheng came back, and with him came a tall and mighty middle-aged man.
The beard on his face was almost a foot long, but his facial features were broad and majestic, his eyes were deep and sharp, and his whole body exuded a domineering aura without even being angry, just like a great general guarding a region in ancient times.
Next to them was a middle-aged man with an elegant face. He looked at Shang Yuantang for a moment, his eyes showing surprise, and whispered a few words to the bearded man.
The bearded man suddenly smiled and said, "So it's my dear nephew Yuan Tang. I'm sorry for not welcoming you in person."
"Hello, Uncle Lu," Shang Yuantang saluted. "My father often told me about you. Now that you are living a comfortable life, he is also relieved."
"Haha, thank you Brother Yanci for your concern. If I have the chance in the future, I will get drunk with him for three days."
The bearded man is named Lu Zhongqing, He Weihua's father-in-law. The Yanci he mentioned is Shang Yuantang's father Shang Yanci. The two were once the gods of war in the north and south on the battlefield.
He walked forward, patted Shang Yuantang's arm, and nodded with admiration, "Yan Ci's son is truly a rare talent. He is truly remarkable."
"Thank you for the compliment, Uncle Lu. I came to the mountains today to work and encountered a group of bandits. I intercepted the wild animals they had hunted, and since it's close to you, I sent them to you as a snack."
Shang Yuantang spoke in a light tone, polite yet with a hint of warning.
Lu Zhongqing glanced at the big hole on the black wolfdog's head, a fierce look flashed in his eyes, and soon he burst into laughter.
"I haven't eaten meat for three years. I appreciate your kindness, nephew. Please come in and have a seat."
"Uncle Lu, please."
Shang Yuantang walked into the dining hall slowly after Lu Zhongqing. The elegant man following Lu Zhongqing was Song Che's father, Song Muzhi. He personally made tea for the two of them and stood by to serve them.
Shang Yuantang's men were standing in a circle outside the house. Fang Desheng asked his youngest son to take the men and keep them away, not letting anyone get close.
In the room, Lawrence Lu and Shang Yuantang exchanged a few pleasantries and briefly talked about their respective situations.
Finally, Shang Yuantang said, "Uncle Lu, I understand that life in the mountains is difficult, but we've endured such hard times before. The situation now is so much better than before. Why are you taking such a risk?"
"What do you mean, nephew?"
The moment Lu Zhongqing saw the musket wound on the black wolfhound's head, he knew that Qin Li and the others' things in the mountains were gone, and that outsiders had learned about what happened in the valley.
"We are following the law and reflecting on ourselves here. How can we take such a risk?"
Shang Yuantang did not find any physical evidence, nor did he have any definite evidence that the abnormality in the valley was related to the tea mountain.
But his intuition told him that anyone who could tame more than ten wolfhounds to guard the mountains was definitely not an ordinary citizen, and only people from the tea mountains could do it.
Since Lawrence Lu and his father were friends who respected each other, he would not make things difficult for them.
But he has only been working here for half a year. He can keep them this time, but he won't be so lucky next time.
