Now the arrow was on the string and had to be shot, so he nodded without hesitation: "Every word that Baolin said is true."

When the village chief heard his words, deep disappointment flashed in his eyes: "Okay, I can't just listen to your one-sided words. I want to ask Ye now."

After the village chief finished speaking, he turned and looked at Xia Yanxin: "Xin girl, do you agree with what Baolin said?"

Xia Yanxin looked at the village chief: "Village chief, no, he is talking nonsense. He wants to destroy my mother's and my reputation. Village chief, since he keeps saying that we beat him, I want witnesses."

"How could there be witnesses at such a late hour, and in such a secluded cave. Who would go to that cave when they are full? And I am a victim. Can't I testify for myself?" Xia Baolin retorted.

"Of course not. If your logic is correct, then the world would be in chaos. No matter what happens, as long as the victim doesn't like someone, he will be called the murderer. What's the point of having officials? Just for show?"

Xia Yanxin's words left Xia Baolin speechless. He was at a loss for words for a moment. Even the village chief and villagers felt that what Xia Yanxin said made sense. For example, if a person dislikes someone, he may go to the police and report that his house has been robbed, and he also knows who the thief is. Then according to Xia Baolin's logic, the person who was reported is a thief regardless of whether he stole anything or not, because the victim has already come forward to testify.

Xia Baolin was so angry that his chest heaved. The look in his eyes when he looked at Xia Yanxin seemed to be filled with raging fire. However, Xia Yanxin glanced at Xia Baolin provocatively in a place where no one could see.

"Village chief, everyone is here today, and I want to ask Xia Baolin, what does he mean by maliciously slandering my mother like this?" Xia Yan looked at everyone present with a wronged look on his face and said stubbornly but aggrievedly.

"Xia Baolin, if you don't explain yourself clearly today and apologize to my mother, don't even think about leaving my house today!" Xia Yanxin's sudden rage made the people in the Xia family look at Xia Yanxin with fear.

"You bitch, stop confusing me here. The injuries on my body were caused by your mother and you. You must compensate me no matter what you say today." Xia Baolin suddenly yelled.

"Just because you speak louder doesn't mean you are right. I've told you that you have to produce evidence. Without evidence, we won't admit it." Xia Yanxin also raised his voice.

The clan leader came late with the help of others. As soon as he arrived, someone explained the whole story clearly. The clan leader pointed at Xia Baolin and was so angry that he trembled all over: "After you made such a fuss, how can the girls in Shanghe Village get married in the future, and how can the boys in Shanghe Village marry girls in the future!"

The clan leader's words made Xia Baolin's face turn green and red, but he showed no remorse. Instead, he stiffened his neck and said, "Clan leader, what you said is biased. I have been wronged. Can't I seek justice for myself?"

The clan leader's hands trembled: "It's not that I don't want you to seek justice, but I want you to seek justice in private, don't make a big deal out of it and ruin the reputation of the girls and boys in the whole village, do you understand!"

Xia Baolin tilted his head to the side and stopped looking at the clan leader. The village chief had come back to his senses at this time. He looked at Xia Baolin and shook his head: "You still don't know how to repent."

"Repent? What have I done wrong? It's obviously their fault. They did something wrong. Why do you blame it on me and make me admit my mistakes? Is this what you do to the village chief and clan leader?"

Xia Yanxin and Xia Baolin were arguing in the yard. Although the villagers in the yard felt very cold, they wiped their frozen noses with their sleeves and chose to continue watching the fun. They would watch this big melon even if it rained knives from the sky.

The clan leader was also having a headache about this matter. He was thinking about whether he should find a young and capable guy in the clan to train and take over his position. As for finding those who are highly respected, the clan leader felt for the first time that they were all elderly people with inconvenient legs and feet, and their brains were not as flexible as before. It would be better to give the position to the young people, and let the older generation like them take charge.

The more the clan leader thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was too feasible. As he thought about it, he unconsciously said what he was thinking: "Xia Baolin, you should apologize. How can you bear to let such a large group of people endure the cold wind in this winter?"

As soon as the clan leader finished speaking, he realized that he had said the wrong thing, but it was impossible for him to take back what he had said, so he cleared his throat and said again: "Xia Baolin, if you continue to make trouble like this, you will be unfilial."

The accusation of being unfilial made Xia Baolin change his expression. The current emperor ruled the world with filial piety. If the news of his unfilial behavior spread, it would be very detrimental to his future.

At this time, Xia Baolin had not yet realized that he had nothing to do with his career. He looked up at the clan leader with hatred: "Clan leader, this matter has not been made clear yet. How can you be so indiscriminate and biased towards their family?"

"I am biased? Look at this family of three, they are all old, weak, women and children. How did they beat you? Why did they beat you? Don't say that Ye coveted your beauty. Others may believe this, but I don't."

"I believe in Ye's character. She is not the kind of person you say she is." The patriarch's firm answer made Xia Baolin very angry.

Seeing his son being so angry that he couldn't speak, Xia Zhaoli stood up and said, "Patriarch, my Baolin wouldn't lie. If Baolin said that Ye seduced people, then she did seduce people."

Xia Yanxin narrowed her eyes and looked at Xia Zhaoli: "It seems that you will not stop until you have wrongly accused my mother to death today, right?"

At this time, Xia Yanxin had already developed murderous intentions towards the person that the old Xia family loved. You know, at this time, a woman's reputation is very important, especially for someone like Ye, who needs to be especially careful about the separation of men and women.

Xia Baolin didn't care about much at this time: "Unfair? It's obviously you who made me like this, and you still say that I wronged you."

"Xia Baolin, stop talking nonsense. It's obvious that you were the one who had those dirty thoughts about your aunt, and now you're slandering others! You're really shameless." A woman came out of the crowd and said loudly.

Xia Yanxin looked at the person who was speaking, and understood: "It's you? Then tell me what's going on?"
