"The third wife's mother-in-law is here, everyone, come quickly!"
When it got dark, some villagers saw Zhang quietly returning to the village and immediately shouted loudly.
After all, Hou San's collusion with bandits has spread throughout the village.
Everyone was so angry that even Hou San's family was smashed.
Naturally, I couldn’t let go when I saw Mr. Zhang.
For a moment, a crowd of people surrounded Zhang.
Zhang held her head and shivered, "It's none of my business that Hou San colluded with the bandits. Li Qi'an can testify for me. I even helped Li Qi'an!"
"Have you ever helped Li Qian? Two days ago, you went to Li Qian's house to cause trouble. Will you help him?" A villager sneered.
"She probably knew that Li Qi'an was not in the village, so she used Li Qi'an as an excuse. Don't believe it, tie her up and sink her into the river!" Some villagers shouted.
"Yes, sink into the river!"
"Can't let her go!"
After all, who wouldn’t hate colluding with bandits?
Although Hou San died, everyone's hatred did not disappear.
Moreover, Zhang's usual behavior also made them hate her to the bone.
Facing the angry villagers, Zhang was really scared.
She was even more scared than when she faced those bandits.
She also began to regret why she had to go back to the village, but where could she go if she didn't go back to the village? Moreover, Li Qian's promise to her had not yet been fulfilled.
That's why she came back.
She didn't care whether Hou San lived or died, she just wanted to get what she deserved.
But she didn't expect these villagers to hate her so much.
"stop!"
At this moment, a shout came.
It was Zhuang Xiaodie and Yun Niang who also rushed over.
"Miss Zhuang Er, you are here just in time. This is Hou San's mother-in-law. Hou San colluded with the bandits, and his mother-in-law is not much better. We are about to tie her up and sink her into the river!" A villager immediately said to Zhuang Xiaodie.
Zhuang Xiaodie glanced around the villagers.
"Your village chief didn't even come to speak, so you just want to deal with her? Why are you acting like a group of bandits? I just don't know if you all have the courage to face the bandits!"
Zhuang Xiaodie's words suddenly made many villagers' cheeks heat up.
"But I can understand you. After all, her man colluded with the bandits, and who doesn't hate the bandits? But her man is her man, and she is her. She can't act recklessly until the matter is clarified."
Zhuang Xiaodie's next words calmed the villagers' emotions and established their prestige in the hearts of the villagers.
Then Zhuang Xiaodie walked up to Mrs. Zhang, "You said you helped Li Qian, what did you help him?"
"I helped him..." Mrs. Zhang originally wanted to tell her about helping Li Qian, but after thinking about it, no one would believe her even if she told her now. Besides, she felt that the fewer people who knew about the Blind Mountain Salt Mine, the better. , so he swallowed his words again.
Seeing that she didn't say anything even though she was halfway speaking, Zhuang Xiaodie frowned.
"Okay, I won't embarrass you, but you are not allowed to leave the village from now on. When Li Qian comes back, I will ask him properly."
"Have all those bandits been killed?" Zhang asked timidly.
"Of course, as long as our banker takes action, those bandits are nothing." Zhuang Xiaodie said.
It was as if she had entered the role, everything was done by her banker, and Li Qian was just an errand boy.
Mrs. Zhang's eyes flickered quietly. Maybe others didn't know, but she knew very well that Li Qi'an had dealt with those bandits alone, and she felt even more afraid of Li Qi'an.
They said they would catch all the bandits in one fell swoop. They would catch them all in one fell swoop. It was simply terrifying!
At this time, Yun Niang came over to help Zhang, "Don't be afraid yet. When the master comes back, he will make it clear to everyone."
"Yunniang, it was my fault that I treated you and your daughter the way I did before. Please don't blame me." Madam Zhang apologized to Yunniang carefully.
Yun Niang was stunned for a moment and couldn't figure out why Mrs. Zhang would apologize to her at this time.
But we were all women. Seeing how pitiful Ms. Zhang was at this time, we immediately said, "As long as you live a good life in the future, everyone can forget about the past."
Mrs. Zhang also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The reason why she apologized to Yun Niang at this time was because she was afraid that Li Qian would settle old scores with her.
She now felt chills all over when she thought of Li Qian smiling in front of her.
With Zhuang Xiaodie's words, the villagers naturally no longer dared to kidnap Mrs. Zhang and sink her into the river.
Just when everyone was about to disperse.
"No, no, the bandits are here again!"
Suddenly a villager ran over in a panic and shouted.
Everyone also heard the sound of horse hooves.
His expression also changed.
Zhuang Xiaodie's expression suddenly changed at this time!
