After marrying the hunter, he became more and more abnormal

"Sister-in-law..." Xia Mo called softly, his misty eyes looking straight at her.

He really didn't expect that Qi, who had no relationship with him, would stand up to defend him time and time again, as well as Sister Yingying and the others. It would be a lie to say that he was not moved.

In his previous world, most people were cautious and self-protective. They didn't necessarily ask others for help or to step up for them. After all, no one had this obligation. But in comparison, Xia Mo felt that he had never seen such a simple and kind person.

"It's okay, don't be afraid." Qi looked at Xia Mo, who seemed to be about to cry again, and comforted her in a soft voice like a sister.

"Yeah!" Xia Mo nodded heavily, then raised his eyes and looked around, his gaze finally stopped on Liu Baolian who was hiding behind the crowd and smiling happily.

Looking at Liu Baolian who was gloating over other's misfortune, Xia Mo lowered his eyes, a dark light flashed across his eyes instantly. She actually dared to come and watch the fun, so don't blame him for being rude.

Seeing this, Qi thought that those people who were just watching the fun were making him sad, so she shouted again:

"Do you all think he's right? If it doesn't matter, then it doesn't matter if girls and boys from other villages don't want to marry into our village in the future? After all, anyone with a little sense of shame probably wouldn't want to be called a playboy by others one day for no apparent reason!"

She paused, looked at the person whose expression had changed slightly, and continued:

"This is not just a problem for the young men in our village, but also for the girls and boys in our village. Rumors are terrible. Men from other villages probably won't want to marry girls and boys who are labeled as shameless. There are also many educated people in our village. If they pass the imperial examination one day and the officials from higher levels come to visit, they will be extremely disappointed with the atmosphere in our village!"

Qi said a lot in one breath, and instantly grasped the psychology of many people, especially those who had scholars in their families. Their expressions changed again and again, and Xia Mo couldn't help but want to applaud her, but unfortunately the situation didn't allow him to do so.

"Dayong's family, you can't say that! This has nothing to do with our family." Someone made a false excuse.

Looking at the still stubborn person, Qi smiled, "Why not? One person makes a team, three people make a tiger, isn't that the truth now? If rumors are spread too many times, they will become true. Anyway, no one cares. If disaster strikes him in the future, others will have the same attitude. You will reap what you sow."

When the man heard this, he moved his mouth again and again but could not utter a word. At the same time, people next to him started talking to each other. After all, what Qi said made sense.

As for the families of the two people who were hanged, they were so angry that their chests ached when they saw the people around them turning against them, but they could do nothing but glare at Xia Mo and the others angrily.

Tsk, didn't someone say they had already gone to see the village chief? Why hasn't he come yet?

Seeing that the situation was becoming increasingly favorable to him, Xia Mo was overjoyed. He tilted his head and glanced at Ling Chuan. Seeing that he was also looking at him, he winked at him slyly.

Well, next, it should be his turn to play again.

I don't know if Ling Chuan understood the meaning in his eyes, but he raised the corners of his mouth to reveal a very faint but tolerant smile, and his dark eyes seemed to be saying "Go, I'm watching."

Xia Mo withdrew his gaze upon seeing this. Their eyes met for only a brief moment and no one noticed at all.

So, Xia Mo secretly cleared his throat, then stepped forward and expressed his gratitude to Qi: "Thank you, sister-in-law, thank you for guiding me these days."

"What's there to thank me for? What I said is the truth. Ling Chuan is not at home, but you have been with us a lot during this period, and we went to the county town together. You leave early and come back late, so how can you have time to meet others?"

When Qi spoke at the end, she deliberately raised her voice so that the people around her could hear. Ze Ge'er was with them, and they were witnesses.

Xia Mo smiled at her when he heard this, and took this friendship into his heart. Then he looked at Liu Ping and Liu Min and said quietly: "It's okay if you want to let them go. As long as you let them speak and tell me where they heard these rumors from, I will go and confront that person."

Before Liu Ping and Liu Min could speak, the two people who could not bear being hung up for too long began to shout and scream.

"I'll tell you, it was Mrs. Hu who said it first! We were washing clothes together in the river that day..." said the woman.

"It was Mrs. Hu, and that bitch down there also said it! Mrs. Hu also said that it was Mrs. Huang, the village chief's sister-in-law, who saw you and Wang Mazi together with her own eyes..." The husband also kept yelling.

"It can't be Aunt Huang!" When Xia Mo heard them say that the eyewitness was the woman who rescued him, he denied it without thinking and narrowed his eyes slightly. It couldn't be her.

"I was almost blackmailed by Wang Mazi that morning, and it was my aunt who helped me. Not only did you slander me, but you even wanted to drag my aunt into this. You are so despicable!" Xia Mo raised his eyes and glared at them angrily.

"No, it's not us who said it, it's Hu!" Receiving Ling Chuan's cold and ruthless eyes, the man immediately made amends.

"Who is Hu?" Xia Mo frowned.

"She's right there! Don't let her run away!" The two people above shook excitedly and looked in the same direction.

Because of their instructions, the small group of people moved to the side, and Ling Chuan's cold eyes easily locked onto a young woman who was about to sneak away, and then sternly said: "Try to take another step."

The woman froze when she heard that. She knew that even though she could escape the monk, she could not escape the temple. She could only turn her head stiffly under the burning gazes of the crowd.

Xia Mo looked at the quiet and beautiful young woman and found it hard to believe that the rumor came from her mouth. It was true that one cannot judge a person by his appearance. However, he did not remember when he had offended her.

"Why are you spreading rumors and slandering me? I have never had any dealings with you, let alone offending you. Why are you doing this!" Xia Mo opened his eyes wide and looked at her in disbelief.

Hu, who had become the target of everyone's attack, opened and closed his mouth, and finally sneered, "I didn't lie. Didn't you ask others to tell you when and where you met Wang Mazi? Why, now you are not telling the truth?"

Oh my god, this woman is so shameless that she even caught him talking nonsense. But is this the same nature? Xia Mo looked at Hu, who was still stubborn even when she was about to die, and rolled his eyes secretly.

"Just because he wanted to blackmail me for money, you spread rumors and slandered me. How can you...how can you be so vicious!" Xia Mo retorted, and a deep groove appeared at the corner of Ling Chuan's mouth.

"That's right, what are your intentions? Why do you want to slander Ze Ge'er like this? What good will it do you to slander him!" Qi also looked at Hu with disgust and said sternly.

Hu was stared at by their interrogative gazes. Her hands hanging by her side clenched the corners of her clothes. She bit her lip, and after a flash of her eyes, she said, "What ulterior motives can I have? I'm just telling the truth."

Anyway, Huang was not here, so no matter what he said, it could not change the fact that he had met Wang Mazi. However, she was too optimistic. As soon as she finished speaking, Huang and Liu Changgong came hurriedly.

Someone was sharp-eyed, and as soon as he saw her, he immediately shouted excitedly, "Look, everyone, Huang Shuzhen is here!"

What! Upon hearing this, Mrs. Hu suddenly looked up and stared blankly at Mrs. Huang who had squeezed through the crowd and walked in. Why was she here? Didn't she go to her mother's house?
