C3 Villagers Make Trouble

Zhao Yunwan couldn't bear the pain in her heart when she heard such a cordial voice.

Actually, she had always blamed her mother in her heart.

She blamed her mother for not knowing anything. She blamed her mother for thinking about her little brother. She blamed her mother for only dragging her down. She blamed her mother for always finding trouble with her …

She had too many grudges and grudges. It was the same in her previous life, to the point that she did not often think about her in the years after Shang Jing left for the capital.

After seeing her again in the capital, her sister-in-law despised her mother and even felt that it was her mother's fault.

However, if she was willing to spend some effort on her mother, perhaps everything would be different.

Zhao Yunwan stretched out her arms to hug her mother, then cried, "Mother taught her daughter how to keep her feet on the ground since she was young, and she can't do things like stealing chickens and dogs."

"Your daughter has always kept in mind her teachings and knows that she has to be upright and upright."

"Since someone accused mother of stealing, we will not take the blame. Let's go to the officials."

Zhao Yunwan helped her mother up after she finished speaking.

Seeing that the situation had escalated to such an extent that even the officials had to pay attention to it, Gao Ang panicked. He hurriedly ran over to Li Zheng and said, "Li Zheng, I didn't say that she had stolen. I only asked her one question."

"She was the one who pulled me over like a madman. I only started talking nonsense when I was angry."

"Rizheng, I don't want to see an official. She's the one who instigated all this. If you want to see an official, ask her to meet you."

Her anxious gaze swept through the familiar figures in the crowd. She looked at all the women whose eyes were glinting and their expressions were anxious. She began to recall, one by one, the grudges and curses she had once heard against Yang Cailian.

"She, she's from Zhao Qiang's house. She said that your mother is harsh, that she insults Ping Er all day long and uses Ping Er as an animal's servant."

"She, she's from Xie Xing Wang's house. She said that your mother helped her family with their work and cheated. The moment she gets on the table, she knows how to eat meat."

"…"

"And her, she belongs to Chen Shenghai's family. She said that your mother beat up her son, and she was very vicious."

It was as if all the women in the village were reciting the words one after another.

Zhao Yunwan felt that her mother couldn't even hold on.

Thinking about it, those who were chosen by the Gao family were all people who were extremely close to her mother on the surface.

It was the list of gifts that Xu Family Manor had prepared, which they and the others had taken.

Zhao Yunwan looked at the pairs of hands that subconsciously wanted to wave and heads that drooped helplessly. The corners of her mouth curled up as she quietly watched with a smile.

After Gao An's family was completely unable to continue their conversation, Zhao Yunwan supported her mother as they walked step by step towards the women whose names were called.

"Mom, take a good look. Don't say anything more."

"Knowing the nature of a fish in water, knowing the sound of a bird in mountains. "It's easy to rise and fall, but easy to overturn the hearts of small people."

"No one talks behind his back, and no one talks in front of him."

"The ones that are in debt return the money, and the ones that aren't, return the money. In the future, we won't eat any meat, so we'll just go out and sit in the carriage."

"If Ping Er gets fat again in the future, if anyone asks, you can tell them that it was you who got the swelling."

After Zhao Yunwan finished speaking, Yang Cailian rolled her eyes weakly.

Today, she finally understood what defeat was.

Ping Er, who had squeezed through the crowd, came over to Yang Cailian's side and supported her other hand. "Auntie didn't beat me up. I was just talking a bit louder. If there's anything delicious, Auntie will leave it for me."

"When my father sold me to my mother's house, I was as thin as a monkey, but I've grown much taller now. My mother even made four new sets of clothes for me."

She was a seven or eight-year-old girl. Her hair was jet-black and her skin was white and tender. How could she possibly have been abused?

Two years ago, when they were in the Zhao Family, they were in a miserable state.

Everyone subconsciously lowered their heads, knowing that some things were just a rumor.

However, now that he had tried to verify everything, he realized that nothing was right.

"You girl, what are you doing out here?"

"Didn't I tell you not to wander around? You shouldn't be worried about being coaxed into working as a laborer."

Yang Cailian said tiredly. She suddenly didn't want to continue the fight anymore.

Zhao Yunwan had already let her mother clearly see the facial expressions of these villagers. Next, it was up to her to step out and intimidate them.

"Since it started because of Gao An's suspicions that my mother was a thief, I would ask the Gao Family to stand out and explain themselves. If Gao An's suspicions are not clear, then I will bring my mother to the county city to beat up all those wrongdoers. I must have the county magistrate restore my mother's innocence."

Faang Zhiping glanced at the old Village Head with a troubled look. The old Village Head was so anxious that smoke was coming out of his throat. He quickly went up to Gao An's house and said, "You wronged Yang Cailian. Hurry up and apologize."

"If it really gets to the point where you can't escape a false accusation."

The Gao Ans were anxious and embarrassed, and their faces were filled with tears.

She glanced at Yang Cailian and said angrily, "It's all my fault. I said it randomly."

"I didn't see you wrongly when you stole the rice. I didn't expect things to turn out like this."

"I'm sorry."

Zhao Yunwan let go of her mother's wrist and slowly walked over to Gao An's house.

She condescendingly looked down at Gao An and said in a very sharp tone, "I know that you are very unhappy."

"I'm guessing that at that time, you wanted to ridicule my mother and make everyone come watch as a joke."

"The funny thing is, every time you make fun of me, the servants on top of my manor will also send a gift to greet you, afraid that my mother will take over your heads."

"If that's the case, and my servant is merciful, why not?"

After Zhao Yunwan finished speaking, she swept her cold eyes over the surrounding villagers.

Mama Zhang and Chun Lan lowered their heads in shame. They held the handkerchief in their hands with awkward expressions.

Faang Zhiping and the old elder also felt a bit uncomfortable. They looked around and found that the people who were arguing with Yang Cailian had subconsciously lowered their heads without saying a word.

Despite the fear in Gao Anji's heart, he still stubbornly said, "What ability do you have to buy a large house in the city if you have the ability? Move your family over, and don't stay here in the countryside to suffer."

Zhao Yunwan replied nonchalantly, "That's exactly what I wanted to say."

"Since you cannot tolerate my mother, then the village academy should also disperse."

Faang Zhiping looked at Zhao Yunwan's relaxed appearance and subconsciously wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.

In this five kilometers of distance, all the villages were counting on the Pingzhai Village that belonged to the Xu Academy.

If the Xu school was broken up, then there was no need for him to be like this anymore.

The Village Chief was also worried. He was a kind old man and did not know how to express himself. He could only point at the villagers and scold, "Do, do, do with all your might."

"Which family doesn't have a child? Which family doesn't want to enter the academy? Which family hasn't received the favor of the Xu Family Villa?"

"It's good now, the academy has collapsed. I said that all of you are poor, unlucky ghosts with ten lifetimes of bad luck."

After the old Village Head said this, he panted heavily, looking as if he was about to die if he didn't get a single breath.

Faang Zhiping supported the old elder and said with a defeated look on his face, "If the Xu school were to disperse, how many of you children would be able to afford to study?"
