When the two of them finished their meal and were resting on the kang, Cheng Mingyue thought of the events in Zaohua Village and asked:
"What do you think of what I told you a few days ago?"
"Just these two days," Lu Chen said, and then his hands began to touch around dishonestly.
Cheng Mingyue slapped his hand away and glared at him:
"You are only responsible for starting fires and not putting them out. Be a human being!"
Lu Chen was stunned at first, then he grinned.
His baby is so cute.
If he hadn't wanted to give her a grand wedding, he wouldn't have been willing to endure it.
You have to know how much willpower he needs to resist tearing her apart and swallowing her.
Seeing that Cheng Mingyue had no interest in continuing, Lu Chen had to stop and lie quietly beside her.
"Do you have any clues about the person who plotted against us?" Cheng Mingyue asked again.
A sinister look suddenly flashed in Lu Chen's eyes, and the curve of his mouth became even bigger.
"There's been no news from the capital yet. Since that person is able to hide in the shadows and manipulate everything, there should be some clues left behind. All we can do now is to remain calm and wait and see."
Cheng Mingyue was so angry that her lungs hurt. She sighed deeply:
"We've already been the victim of several ambushes. Do we really have to passively take this? This is so damn frustrating!"
Cheng Mingyue also knew that this was the limitation of this era.
Nowadays, one needs a letter of introduction to go out, and Lu Chen's identity does not allow him to act high-profile at this stage, otherwise they would have already rushed to Beijing.
We will definitely be able to find the dead rat hiding in the gutter!
That night, Lu Chen went out again in the dark.
The next day at noon, news came from Zaohua Village and Baiyang Brigade.
I heard that a group of vagrants appeared out of nowhere. They were very brutal. As soon as they rushed into the village, they started shouting and killing, and broke many people's legs.
Among them were the family of Liu Maokui, the village chief of Zaohua Village, and the family of Zhou Dajun, the village chief of Baiyang Brigade, as well as a few other families who were on good terms with them.
It is said that those people often bully others in the village and are hated by everyone.
At first, when the villagers saw them being beaten, they were a little scared, and then everyone secretly hid in their beds to celebrate.
In the end, it was just the doctors in the town hospital who had to suffer. I heard that the hospital was overcrowded and the doctors and nurses had to run and stumble as they walked.
A day later, news came that Liu Maokui and Zhou Dajun were seriously injured and might not be able to stand up again, so the town reappointed two village heads.
The newly appointed village heads all had previous grudges with Liu Maokui and Zhou Dajun, some even being mortal enemies.
Their style of doing things is completely different from those two people.
The first to benefit were the people who were sent down to the countryside and the educated youth in the village. Wang Shengli also seized the opportunity to sell his house in Zaohua Village. The person who bought his house happened to be the younger brother of the new village chief.
That day, when Cheng Mingyue was sorting herbs in the clinic, Liu Jinhua sneaked in with a basket.
Liu Jinhua was so excited when she saw Cheng Mingyue:
"Mingyue, thank you from your auntie, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to sell the house so quickly!"
Cheng Mingyue pretended not to understand and asked:
"Auntie, I don't understand what you are saying. Has your house been sold?"
Liu Jinhua looked at Cheng Mingyue suspiciously, thinking to herself:
"Is it really not Mingyue's help?!"
Then Cheng Mingyue spoke again: "Aunt, I heard a group of migrant workers came down the mountain these days. It's so weird, I don't know if it's true."
Cheng Mingyue's acting skills were pretty good, at least she managed to fool Liu Jinhua.
As a result, the suspicion in Liu Jinhua's heart disappeared completely, and was replaced by her desire to spread gossip.
She approached Cheng Mingyue mysteriously and said in a low voice:
"Mingyue, you don't know, that night was so thrilling.
A group of tall and strong men, all holding weapons in their hands, rushed into Liu Maokui's house and started smashing things. They not only smashed things, but also smashed everyone they saw. Except for the women and children, everyone in the family had their legs broken.
"Everyone in the village who wanted to help was beaten up. The whole night was filled with panic, and my family of three was so scared that we hid in our beds and trembled."
Cheng Mingyue asked curiously: "Has anyone seen what they look like?"
Liu Jinhua couldn't help but sigh: "How can I see clearly? Their heads are wrapped tightly, only their eyes are exposed.
Besides, it was so dark and no one dared to go out, so who knows what they looked like.”
Cheng Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief.
Then Liu Jinhua started to ramble: "It's not just Zaohua Village that's been robbed. The Baiyang Brigade was also robbed. Hahahaha, people outside are saying those guys are like the living Justice Bao, enforcing justice on behalf of Heaven."
"Aren't they called blind migrants? Why are there people praising them?"
Cheng Mingyue widened her eyes in pretended surprise.
Liu Jinhua covered her mouth and laughed: "Of course I praise them. You don't know how many years the people of Zaohua Village have been bullied by Liu Maokui and his son. We used to dream of bringing misfortune to that bastard family. I didn't expect that God would really hear our voices."
Cheng Mingyue saw that the conversation was almost over, so she quickly changed the subject:
"Auntie, are you really going to move back to our village now?"
Liu Jinhua's smile froze on her face, then she looked sad, and then she started crying to Cheng Mingyue with tears and snot.
