Just one pregnancy and four babies, but the prince actually pledged his love to her

"Auntie Wang, Wang Lai did something wrong, you can't do this."

"Get lost. I can't do this. I want that. My son has already said that it has nothing to do with him. You just don't believe it. What's wrong? You want to directly convict my son of a crime."

"Auntie Wang, Wang Lai's footprints overlap. Everyone can see it. Who else could it be but Wang Lai?"

"I don't care who he is. He's not my son. There are so many people who haven't tried yet. How do you know if there will be someone who has the same shoe print as him?"

When the village chief came here and heard what Wang Po said, he immediately turned around and said, "Everyone who hasn't tried it should go and try it, so that Wang Po won't think that she has wronged Wang Lai."

So the remaining villagers lined up to try it.

The result was naturally as everyone expected, only Wang Lai's footprints overlapped.

This made Mrs. Wang a little unsure.

But she absolutely did not believe that the waterwheel and bamboo pipe had anything to do with her son.

Even though her son was a useless person, he knew the importance of water wheels and bamboo pipes.

They were so happy to have the waterwheel and bamboo pipes that how could they be so foolish as to cause trouble?

But the shoe print test results told her that her son was the biggest suspect.

So Wang Po leaned over to Wang Lai's ear and whispered, "Son, tell me if you did it."

Wang Lai was upset. When he heard what Wang Po said, he said impatiently, "Mother, are you still my mother? How come even you don't believe me?"

"No, no, I believe you. I know it has nothing to do with you. Don't worry, I will make sure you are alright even if I risk my life."

"Why don't you go find the village chief and let me go immediately."

"Okay, okay, okay, son, just bear with it for a while. I'll go find the village chief right away."

Mrs. Wang took small steps and quickly walked up to the village chief. She lost her previous arrogance and said to him in a gentle voice, "Village chief, this matter has nothing to do with my son. Please quickly ask someone to release my son."

The village chief really didn't want to talk to Mrs. Wang, so he walked past her sideways.

Mrs. Wang reached out and grabbed the village chief's sleeve.

"Stab!"

I saw that Mrs. Wang was holding a piece of sleeve in her hand. The village chief looked at the torn clothes and his face turned as black as a pot sticker.

This was one of the few intact clothes he had, yet it was torn to pieces by Mrs. Wang in front of so many villagers.

But as the village chief, no matter how much he felt sorry for the clothes, he couldn't argue with a woman. He just ignored the sleeves and walked away.

Mrs. Wang tore the village chief's clothes and was feeling guilty, afraid that the village chief would ask her to pay for it.

She was relieved to see the village chief ignore her and leave.

But it was a little too early to relax, as the village head's wife Zhou Juan didn't want to let her go easily.

Zhou Juan has always disliked Wang Po, and a few years ago, the two of them had a few quarrels because of Liu.

Zhou Juan asked Wang Po to be nicer to Liu. As they were both women, she should not deliberately waste Liu's time and should take good care of her three granddaughters.

Mrs. Wang wouldn't listen to him at all. She deliberately made life difficult for Mrs. Liu, and did the same to her three granddaughters.

Seeing that Liu and the three girls had suffered a lot because of her, Zhou Juan never cared about the Wang family's affairs again.

But sometimes, when I met Liu's daughter, I would give her some food.

This time, Mrs. Wang tore her old man's clothes to pieces. How could Zhou Juan miss the opportunity to teach Mrs. Wang a lesson?

"Wang Lai Niang, why are you so mean? Why are you tearing my old man's clothes?"

Mrs. Wang knew that she was in the wrong and was afraid that the village chief would ask her to pay for the clothes.

Now that the village chief is gone, she is still afraid of nothing, even the village chief's wife is the same.

So Wang Pozi and Zhou Juan started to fight with each other.

The village chief had Wang Lai taken to the ancestral hall.

Wang Lai racked his brains but couldn't figure out why the shoe prints overlapped with his own.

But he knew that once he was taken to the ancestral hall, he would definitely be punished, so he kept crying out for injustice.

"Village Chief, I really didn't break the bamboo pipe of the waterwheel. It wasn't me."

But both the village chief and other villagers have already determined that the murderer is Wang Lai.

No one took Wang Lai's cry of injustice seriously. They just thought that Wang Lai was afraid of being beaten, so he refused to admit it.

"Wang Lai, if it were me, you should just admit it. The village chief will not be too harsh on you because of your good attitude in admitting your mistakes."

Wang Lai turned his head and glared at Li Nian, saying in a bad tone: "Li Nian, what are you saying here? It wasn't me who did it, so why should I admit it?"

"Okay, just treat it as me talking nonsense and meddling in other people's business."

Li Nian meant well to give Wang Lai a reminder, but he didn't expect Wang Lai to be so ungrateful and speak in such an aggressive tone. He deserved to be punished.

After a stick of incense, the village chief, Wang Lai and others arrived at the entrance of the ancestral hall.

The village chief took out the key and opened the door of the ancestral hall.

Wang Lai panicked when he saw the door of the ancestral hall was opened.

In his impression, from childhood to adulthood, except for the New Year and other festivals when the door of the ancestral hall would be opened to worship ancestors, on ordinary days, if nothing major happened, the door of the ancestral hall would be closed.

As far as I can remember, the number of times the ancestral hall doors were opened like this can be counted on one hand.

The door of the ancestral hall was opened today because of him. I guess the village chief will not let him off easily.

Thinking that he would be beaten soon, Wang Lai's legs ached and he could not even walk.

"Wang Lai, hurry up, what are you dithering for?"

"Don't think you can get away with it if you don't leave."

Soon the village chief asked someone to invite the clan elders. According to clan rules, someone like Wang Lai who had harmed the interests of the entire village should be beaten with fifty sticks.

Wang Lai was kneeling on the ground. When he heard the fifty blows, he was so frightened that he started to cry loudly.

"Village Chief, it really wasn't me. I have witnesses who can prove that I didn't come to the river last night."

Hearing this, the villagers thought that Wang Lai wanted to escape punishment.

However, Li Mengyue, who came along with him, said playfully, "Oh, who can testify for you?"

Wang Lai heard a familiar voice and looked up to see Li Mengyue.

Thinking of the village chief's attitude towards Li Mengyue, maybe he could really avoid punishment, so he couldn't wait to say: "It's Chen Mudan, she can help me testify."

Most of the villagers smiled meaningfully when they heard the name Chen Mudan.

However, there are still a few people who don’t know who Chen Mudan is.

At this time, someone in the crowd said, "Chen Mudan is the widow at the head of the village."

"Wow!"

"When did Wang Lai get involved with Chen Mudan?"

"What they are doing is against morals and brings disgrace to the village."

"Village chief, we can't let them off easily."

"Yes, we can't let it go easily."

"This adulterous couple deserves to die."

……

Wang Lai thought that with Chen Mudan's testimony, he would be safe. He never imagined that his affair with the widow would arouse public anger.

I guess the matter with the widow is more serious than the matter with the waterwheel bamboo pipe.

At this moment, Wang Lai was regretting his decision so much that his intestines turned green. If there was a pill to take to regret his decision, he would definitely buy it without hesitation.

The village chief asked someone to call Chen Mudan. Li Mengyue knew that Wang Lai was wrongly accused before the widow arrived.
