Su Li looked at Wang Chunhua’s smug expression and snorted softly. Then, she took out a bowl piece from her pocket and said, “This is my family’s bowl piece. Someone saw you throw it into the river with their own eyes.”
Wang Chunhua said disdainfully, “What nonsense are you talking about? This fragment is clearly my family’s bowl. I accidentally broke it just now. I threw it into the river because I was annoyed.”
“You’re slandering me with this fragment now. Do you think we’re all fools?”
The number of onlookers gradually increased. When everyone heard that the village chief had brought Su Li and the other two to the He family, their gossipy hearts soared.
The people who were originally eating carried their bowls and went to the He family to join in the fun.
“Hey, tell me what’s going on. Why did the village chief bring Mother of Dahu and the others over?”
“That’s right. What’s going on? I didn’t have time as I was busy cooking at home just now. What happened in the village?”
A warm-hearted woman at the side said, “Aiyo, let me tell you what happened. Wang Chunhua went over and smashed He Yufeng’s pots and pans because her son was paralyzed on the bed. In the end, she even kicked the stove in his house until it was broken.”
“It’s so exaggerated. Why?” The people at the side were puzzled.
The woman pursed her lips and said, “What else could it be? He Yufeng might have become a cripple after being injured from hunting. Wang Chunhua felt that she wouldn’t be able to get her retirement money in the future, so she went over and threw a fit!”
“No way! Is He Yufeng their biological son? Even if they can’t afford to pay, they can’t smash their things!”

Everyone discussed animatedly.
Wang Chunhua put her hands on her hips and said, “What nonsense are you talking about? I didn’t do those things at all.”
Zhou Yu tugged at Su Li’s sleeve. “Look at how arrogant she is. If you have a witness, quickly take it out.”
Wang Chunhua’s arrogant appearance made people grit their teeth in hatred. They wished they could slap her face so hard she would fly away!
Su Li gave Zhou Yu a reassuring look. She looked at Wang Chunhua and said, “Not everything you say makes sense. This bowl is indeed mine because I was afraid that someone would secretly take it away. I even specially engraved the word ‘Su’ on it.”
Wang Chunhua’s voice was sharp. “If you say it’s yours, then it’s yours? You said that the words you carved are yours. Call it and see if it responds to you.” Chen Xiang stood up and said, “This bowl is indeed hers. I’ve seen it before.”
Su Li looked at Chen Xiang in surprise. Chen Xiang did not like to join in the fun. Usually, if anything happened in the village, she would stay far away. She did not expect her to stand up for her.
Chen Xiang smiled at Su Li. She had also heard that Su Li’s things had been smashed. After some thought, she decided to come over and take a look. She didn’t expect to be able to help Su Li.
Moreover, she wasn’t lying. This fragment was indeed identical to the bowl that Su Li had given her previously.
Wang Chunhua never expected that her broken bowl would coincidentally look the same as Su Li’s bowl.
Wang Chunhua spat at Chen Xiang. “This bowl clearly belongs to my family. You picked up the fragments I threw and came back to spout nonsense. Let me tell you, you’ll be struck by lightning for slandering others.”
Chen Xiang straightened her back. “I’m just telling the truth. This bowl was newly bought by Su Li. She even used this bowl to store things for me, so I won’t remember wrongly.”
Wang Chunhua and Chen Xiang each had their own opinions. The surrounding villagers did not know who to believe.
Su Li swept her gaze across the crowd. When she saw Old Zhao standing on his toes and looking in, she smiled.
Old Zhao saw Su Li’s gaze, especially her half-smile. He was inexplicably afraid.
Su Li pointed at Old Master Zhao and said, “Old Master Zhao happened to see you sneaking around and throwing things. If you don’t believe me, ask him.”
Zhou Yu looked at Old Zhao. “Old Zhao, tell me what happened.”
Old Zhao, who was watching the show, was speechless.
He only wanted to watch the show quietly. Why did he suddenly get the attention?
However, he had indeed seen it. In addition, Su Li had indeed helped him previously, so he told her what he had seen.
With Old Zhao’s evidence, Wang Chunhua’s crime was already considered to be confirmed.
Su Li crossed her arms and looked at Wang Chunhua. “The truth is right in front of you. Why aren’t you admitting it?”
Wang Chunhua was so angry that she picked up the broom and swung it back at Su Li. This time, Su Li did not dodge. She grabbed the broom and swung it hard.
She was so strong that she almost knocked Wang Chunhua over.
Wang Chunhua was furious. “Little b*tch, watch how I deal with you…”
He Yuan stood up and scolded, “Alright, stop arguing. This is your He family’s fault. Compensate He Laosan’s family with a stove and compensate them with the smashed pots and pans. Pay them in silver and let He Yufeng’s wife settle them herself.
Wang Chunhua shouted, “Why should I compensate if I didn’t smash anything?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAre you taking me for a fool?”
Some people who were watching the commotion said, “She’s still in the right? If she doesn’t compensate, we’ll drag her to the officials.”
“That’s right. If she doesn’t pay, we’ll drag her to the authorities.”
Wang Chunhua almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Why was she blamed for something she didn’t do?
She was so terribly wronged!
He Yuan didn’t want to talk to Wang Chunhua anymore. He said to Old He, “You decide for yourself. Do you want to compensate or do you want to get pulled to report to the officials?”
Old He opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, He Yuan spoke again.
“Let me make it clear to you first. If you go to jail because of this, I’m afraid our He Family Village won’t tolerate you anymore. People with bad records aren’t worthy of living in our He Family Village. We don’t want such people ruining the atmosphere in the village.”
The person at the side nodded and echoed, “That’s right. Our He Family Village can’t tolerate such a person. When the time comes, we’ll get rid of you from the genealogy.”
Wang Chunhua, who was about to shout, was completely silent. They had lived here for generations. If they were expelled, where could they go?
Besides, their assets were all here. If they were exterminated, they would have to sell their assets and move out of this place. Thinking of this, Wang Chunhua couldn’t help but shiver.
Su Li looked at He Yuan in surprise. It had to be said that the older the ginger, the spicier it was. The moment He Yuan spoke, he wanted to expel the family. Even a shrew like Wang Chunhua did not dare to make a scene.
If He Yuan didn’t mention the eradication of the family, Wang Chunhua probably wouldn’t lose money today, and the He family wouldn’t admit this matter.
When Madam Zhao and Madam Qian heard that they were going to compensate, they felt resentful. If they did not compensate, they would be reported to the officials. Moreover, there was a possibility of extermination.
“Third Sister-in-law, it’s said that even if bones are broken, tendons are still connected. Why are you so ruthless? Are you trying to force us to our deaths before you’re satisfied?”
“That’s right. We’re all family. Why do you have to do this? If we encounter any difficulties in the future, we can still help each other. If you kill all of us, you won’t even have anyone to help you..”
