Cui Dongsheng warned Su Li again, “If you harbor a fugitive, your family won’t be able to escape!”

Su Li said calmly, “I’m a good citizen. If I meet such a person, I’ll be the first to report it to the officials and arrest myself.”

Cui Dongsheng looked at Su Li and asked, “Where’s your man?”

Su Li pursed her lips and said, “Of course he went to work. Don’t tell me we’re leaving him to eat at home? He’s not like a certain someone. It’s fine if his legs aren’t good, but his heart isn’t good either. He doesn’t work and lets his family starve to death.”

“Things that rely on women for a living are the most useless. If such a man meets me, I’ll kick him to hell.”

Su Li’s words implied something, and He Dahai’s face turned pale.

He Yuan looked at everything in front of him and felt embarrassed. He Dahai was really too much. He had spouted nonsense for no reason and now it made everyone’s faces look bad.

Su Li glanced at He Yuan, who was standing with authority at the side. She grabbed He Yuan and said, “Village Chief, you have to judge the situation well. I’m a good citizen of our village. I won’t allow Cripple He to blame me for personal grudges.”

When He Dahai heard the word “Cripple He”, his already ugly expression became even more interesting.

The corners of He Yuan’s mouth twitched awkwardly. What could he say? He only wanted to disappear immediately.

Cui Dongsheng didn’t want to listen to their nonsense. He walked up to Su Li and questioned, “Where did you hide him?”

Actually, he still believed He Dahai’s words. After all, He Dahai did not dare to lie about this unless he did not want to live anymore.

Su Li stood rooted to the ground and said with widened eyes, “Him? Who is he?

I already said that there’s no one here. Didn’t you guys search just now?”

Cui Dongsheng’s face was cold and filled with killing intent. “Don’t pretend to be ignorant. Do you believe that I’ll capture you immediately?”

Su Li looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water. “Alright, then take me away. It just so happens that I don’t have anything at home. Now, I can’t even eat. If you take me away, I don’t have to worry about having nowhere to eat.”

After saying that, Su Li sat on a stool in the courtyard, looking like she was waiting for them to take her away.

Cui Dongsheng was speechless.

He wanted to strangle this woman to death now. Other people were afraid of the officials, but she was directly rushing into them.

Cui Dongsheng didn’t think that Su Li was lying. He couldn’t tell who was right and who wasn’t.

He Dahai covered his face. He could not understand. He had clearly seen He Yufeng carry the man into the house. How did he disappear for no reason?

Su Li must have known something in advance and hid him.Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by ɴo(v)elꜰɪre.ɴet

Cui Dongsheng looked at He Dahai and asked sharply, “Didn’t you say that you saw an injured person? Where is he now?”

In order to prove that he was telling the truth, He Dahai hurriedly explained, “I saw it with my own eyes, and they even invited a doctor.”

Su Li rolled her eyes at He Dahai. “Do you think I’m stupid, or that the officials are stupid? Why don’t you take a look at my family background? Can I afford to hire a doctor?”

“Do you know how much money it costs to see a doctor? How much money does it cost to invite a doctor to do a door visit? Do you think I’m a bank owner or a God of Fortune?”

He Dahai said, “You have money…”

Others might not know, but he knew very well that Su Li had earned a lot of money from selling soap last time. Otherwise, how could she have the money to give Chen Xiang and Zhou Yu money?

“Pfft-” Su Li laughed.

Cui Dongsheng looked at Su Li and asked, “What are you laughing at?”

Su Li covered her mouth and said with a smile, “I’m laughing at his ridiculous words. If I had money, would I still live in this lousy place? If a gust of wind blew over, it would blow my small dilapidated house away. He actually said that I had money.”

Indeed, it seemed that being poor was quite useful. At the critical moment, she could still use it as a shield.

He Dahai was a little anxious. “You must have hidden him.”

Su Li turned to the side. “Then continue searching. You can dig three feet into the ground too. I won’t stop you.”

With that, Su Li picked up her teacup and began to leisurely drink her tea.

Cui Dongsheng was a little angry when he saw her like this. He really wanted to take her away.

He took a deep breath and told himself not to argue with her. She was just a farmer’s wife. She was not worth his effort.

Cui Dongsheng looked at Su Li and said, “Go and call your man back.”

Su Li sat on the stool without moving her butt. “He’s exploring the back mountain. Go by yourself. I’m not free.”

Cui Dongsheng gave his men a look, and they quickly ran towards the back of the mountain.

Soon, He Yufeng was brought back.

He Yufeng glanced at Su Li, who was sitting and drinking tea leisurely. He heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that she was fine.

Cui Dongsheng looked at Su Li and said, “We have something to ask your man. Go into the house and wait. You’re not allowed to come out without my instructions.”

Su Li didn’t move and said, “You guys talk. I won’t affect you guys by sitting her.”

“Mmhm?” The person behind Cui Dongsheng took out his saber.

He Yufeng said to Su Li, “Go in first. Nothing will happen.”

The two of them looked at each other. To outsiders, everything seemed normal. Only they understood the secret message.

Su Li stood up and pursed her lips. “So be it. What’s so great about it?”

He Yufeng shook his head. “No, I’m injured. The doctor instructed me not to use strength. Besides, I don’t have strength either.”

Cui Dongsheng narrowed his eyes. “Think about it carefully. If you really encounter someone, as long as you tell me the truth and hand them over, I can let bygones be bygones and even give you a considerable sum of silver.”

“Your wife has already told us everything, so don’t try to quibble. You went to hide someone just now.”

Cui Dongsheng’s words carried a lot of coercion and temptation.

He Yufeng stood upright in the courtyard and snorted coldly in his heart when he heard Cui Dongsheng’s question.

Trying to get information out of him?

He should go back to the mother’s womb for a few more years!

He Yufeng shook his head. “I’m telling the truth. I don’t know where you heard that the person is with us, but I’ve never seen anyone suspicious.”

Su Li pushed open the door and walked out. “Are you done? If you really suspect us, you can just arrest us and put us in jail.”

Cui Dongsheng narrowed his eyes and instructed his subordinates, “Take the village chief and start searching from door to door.”

He then looked at He Yuan and said, “If someone doesn’t cooperate, I’ll have to trouble the village chief to help me deal with it.”

He Yuan had rejected him ten thousand times in his heart, but he still had to smile and nod in agreement. Who asked the other party to have a higher status than him? He might even capture him too..
