Zhao Susu didn't dare to think further. She didn't want to get into trouble, so she forced a smile and said a few perfunctory words, then pulled Meng Yu away quickly.

But the village was so small that such an incident happened suddenly, which was considered bombshell news. On the way to her own field, she heard a lot of gossiping women talking about it. They heard that Cao the butcher had reported it to the authorities, and now the government was sending people to arrest him.

Zhao Susu suddenly became at a loss.

"Mom, it hurts!"

When she looked down, she realized that she had unknowingly used too much force and almost broke Meng Yu's little hand.

Zhao Susu quickly squatted down to help her blow the air, and touched her head apologetically: "Ayu, it's mother's fault..."

"It's right here, sir. It's this woman who is in cahoots with the bad guys!" Butcher Cao's injured eye was wrapped in white cloth, wrapping around his hair and ears, leaving only half of his face exposed.

A group of people appeared here, including about twenty or thirty people from the village who came to watch the fun.

Zhao Susu was startled at first, then her face turned pale, she staggered, and subconsciously said: "No, it's not..."

Meng Yu also frowned.

She knew that Cao the Butcher was not a good person, but he was even more shameless than she thought. He had evil intentions and was hurt by someone, but he had no guilt in his heart and even made a false accusation.

She tightly grasped Zhao Susu's hand and said softly, "Mom, don't be afraid. I haven't done anything wrong before!"

These words made Zhao Susu stunned. Yes, she was not wrong, so what was she afraid of?

She glanced at Meng Yu. She had a daughter, and she had to take care of her daughter, not just for herself, and she couldn't let anyone bite her.

She suppressed her fear and trembled, "Sir, I am innocent. I, I didn't..."

The officials looked at Zhao Susu, who was standing there like a pitiful little white flower in the wind, and then looked at Cao the butcher with suspicion in their eyes: "You said she hurt you?"

Butcher Cao lost an eye and was filled with hatred, but he didn't know who did it. Since the incident was caused by Zhao Susu, he transferred all his hatred to Zhao Susu.

"That's her, sir!"

"Can she hurt you?"

"It's her adulterer!" Butcher Cao's one eye flashed and he said loudly.

Zhao Susu's face changed drastically: "You are talking nonsense, I don't have an adulterer!"

Meng Yu burst into tears: "Bad guy, you are not allowed to bully my mother, wuwu..."

The officers looked at each other. If it was Zhao Susu who did it, they would not believe it, but if there was an adulterer, something like this might have happened.

So, they made a decision: "Take him away. Whether he is right or not, we will know after the adults have judged him."

Zhao Susu's face was pale. The thief's bite had penetrated deep into her bones. If she was caught, even if she had not done anything wrong, she would have no way to survive if she returned to the village.

Meng Yu cried and hugged Zhao Susu's legs: "You are bad people, why don't you catch bad people, why catch my mother? After my father died, my mother only had me. I don't want my mother to die like my father, I don't want my mother to die!"

She cried miserably, and the childish voice and words could be heard clearly in everyone's ears.

When the villagers heard that the government was coming to arrest people, some of them finally couldn't stand it anymore.

"Sir, Zhao is a very honest woman. She works in the fields every day. She is not a shameless woman. Besides, she has no grudge against Cao Boping. Even if there is an adulterer, why would she attack Cao Boping?"

"Yes, sir, you can't wrongly accuse a good person. She is a woman, if she is really arrested and brought before the magistrate, how can she live her life in the future?"

"Sir, Zhao lives with us, but I haven't heard that she has an adulterer. It's pitiful that Cao Boping was injured, but we can't just frame others. Orphans and widows are also pitiful!"

"If the officer wants to ask, just ask here. We can all be witnesses. If you really bring her to the government office, it will be a bad thing. Wouldn't that force this poor woman to death?"

……

When Cao the butcher heard that these people were actually speaking for Zhao Susu, he immediately started to speak in a dirty way: "Look, so many people are speaking for her, is it because she secretly served you well that you all stand on her side?"

Zhao Susu was so angry that tears welled up in her eyes, and the angrier she got, the less she could speak.

This vicious slander also made the person who just spoke for Zhao Susu dare not say anything more.

Once it involves matters between men and women, it will be a mess.

Meng Yu was about to explode with rage. Even though she was thirteen years old now, she had a hundred ways to scold this Cao guy, but she was only three and a half years old and didn't dare to speak very fluently.

She cried and said, "You bullied my mother, you bad guy!"

As he spoke, his little body suddenly rushed towards Cao Boping like a cannonball.

Of course Cao Boping would not take this little guy seriously and stretched out his hand to stop him.

But who is Meng Yu? She is a big sister who can lead the little hooligans in the school to fight with the big hooligans in the society and always win. She is the leader of the people around her. She doesn't know much about other things, but she is very good at fighting.

She suddenly increased her speed, and then she heard Cao Boping screaming and falling to the ground, covering his vital parts. His body curled up like a shrimp and he rolled over and over on the ground like a pancake.

Meng Yu was only three and a half years old, and her height was just as high as Cao the butcher's legs. She bumped into Cao Boping with her little head, and with her great strength, she almost flattened Cao Boping's two taels of flesh.

The severe pain made him unable to utter a word. He could only scream and roll on the ground, with snot and tears flowing, looking indescribably miserable.

But Cao Boping's appearance made everyone present laugh. What bad intentions could a child have? It was just a coincidence.

The leading officer even tried to hold back his laughter and said, "Cao Boping, that's enough. How could such a young child knock you into this state?"

Now he also believed it a little. Cao Boping was a man with a face full of flesh. He said that widows had adulterers. But according to what he said when he reported to the police, he was ambushed on his way home last night. When asked why he was ambushed, he couldn't explain it. Why would others ambush him for no reason?

Seeing him still rolling on the ground with his hands on his hands, the officers thought he was just pretending. The leading officer became impatient and said, "Get up and talk properly!"

Really, who are you doing this for? How much pain can a malnourished three-year-old kid get when he bumps into someone, even if he doesn't hit the right spot?

At this moment, Cao Boping felt the pain piercing his bones, but since it was the officer who had given the order, he dared not not get up. He could only slowly crawl up with a hunched body, his waist and back hunched, and his face full of pain.

The leading officer looked at everyone and turned to Cao Boping: "How far is the place where you were ambushed yesterday from here?"

"Half, half a mile!"

"It's so far away from Zhao's home, how can you be sure it's related to this Zhao family?"

Cao Boping hesitated, then closed his eyes and made up his mind: "Last night I saw Zhao walking hurriedly there alone, so I pulled her into the bushes, but before I could do anything, I was attacked. My eyes, my shoulders, and my hands were all injured."

After hearing this, what else did the villagers not understand?

It turned out that this Cao had bad intentions. He wanted to do something bad when he saw a widow walking alone. Isn't this what she deserves? Some villagers with similar bad intentions also looked at her secretly. Although Zhao's skin was much rougher due to doing more farm work, she was indeed beautiful.

The leading officer was very angry: "What was Zhao doing at that time?"

"She, she ran away."

"Were the injuries on your body caused by Zhao?"

"no!"

"If that's not the case, why did you report Zhao to the police? Are you kidding us?"

"But the person who did it secretly must be related to Zhao!" Cao Boping said anxiously: "Sir, if he is not an adulterer, why would he help her? Then Zhao must know him."

Someone couldn't help but curse: "Can't others help others when they see injustice? You only said that you were attacked and injured, but you didn't say that you had bad intentions. Isn't she a widow? You still want to clear the name of the bad guy. You are really the thief crying thief!"

"Sir, I am really injured. It must be Zhao's adulterer who hurt me. If you arrest her and torture her severely, she will definitely confess."

The leading officer looked at Zhao Susu and asked, "What are you doing out there in the middle of the night, woman?"

"My Yu'er is sick. I went to see Doctor Zhang."

"Did you go to see Doctor Zhang after you ran away?"

"No, no, I was scared. I went home, closed the doors and windows, and didn't dare to sleep all night!"

"It must be my dad. My dad has become a god in heaven. He helped my mom fight off the bad guys!"

A crisp child's voice suddenly spoke.

The officer looked at Meng Yu, who was as thin and pale as a bean sprout, and then at Zhao Susu, who was shaking with fear and had a haggard look, and turned his head: "Catch him!"
