So what if you flee from famine? Start all over again and live a good life every day
Chapter 24 Huang Cuihua does not admit
Huang Cuihua's face changed drastically. She tried to remain calm and retorted: "You are slandering me! What evidence do you have to say that I set the fire? Maybe you set the fire on yourselves and deliberately framed me."
Sui He sneered, "There is no such thing as kerosene in my house. Besides, who do you think you are? Is it worth it for me to burn my own belongings just to frame you? What do I want? Just because you are so shameless?"
"How can you talk like that? I am your elder after all. Is this how you were brought up to talk to your elders?" Huang Cuihua was furious.
"You are so funny. I am not from your Linjia Village, and you are not related to me. How can you be considered my elder? Stop flattering me." Sui He was not afraid of her at all and looked at her with a sneer.
Father Lin frowned. He walked towards Huang Cuihua and asked seriously, "Huang Cuihua, what is going on? You'd better give me an explanation."
"Village chief, don't you understand? They clearly did it themselves and are trying to frame me."
"Huang Cuihua, it wasn't you who did it, why are you so nervous?" A woman standing by stared at Huang Cuihua and said, "I remember that kerosene is not something that ordinary people can get. Have you forgotten that you used kerosene to burn down my kitchen and you even compensated me for the kitchen?"
Huang Cuihua stared at You Liangsao fiercely: "This matter has nothing to do with you, stop talking nonsense here, what's wrong with me having kerosene? How can it be proved that I was the one who released it?"
"How can it have nothing to do with you? Can't you smell the strong smell of kerosene on your fingers?" Sister Youliang pointed at her hand.
"You're talking nonsense. The kerosene was not in the bottle and didn't touch the door at all. How could there be any on my hand..." Huang Cuihua subconsciously raised her finger and put it under her nose to smell it. The next second, she reacted, her face flushed, and pointed at Youliangsao.
"You blew me up, you actually blew me up?"
"Oh, you're the one who's going to be blown up. If you didn't do it, how can you be afraid of being blown up? You're confessing yourself."
Father Lin glared at Huang Cuihua angrily, "Huang Cuihua, why don't you tell the truth?"
Huang Cuihua pursed her lips tightly, lowered her head and said nothing. Seeing Huang Cuihua like this, how could the people present not understand?
"Okay, okay, you don't want to say it, right?"
"Okay, since you don't want to say it, Lin Wu," Father Lin turned to the silent Lin Wu and said, "Our village absolutely cannot have such a daughter-in-law. I will make the decision to send her back to her parents' home."
"Everything is up to the village chief." Lin Wu stepped forward and glanced coldly at Huang Cuihua. If this woman is not taught a lesson, she will not be afraid at all.
When Huang Cuihua heard that she was going to go back to her parents' home, she finally panicked. She fell to her knees and cried for mercy, "Village chief, I was wrong. I admit that I set the fire. Please don't divorce me."
She had long lost contact with her parents, and now she didn't know where they had gone. If they were really kicked out, she didn't know where to find them. Even if she did, her parents would definitely not recognize her.
Father Lin snorted coldly: "Do you know you are wrong now? Why did you set the fire? How did the person offend you?"
"I..." Huang Cuihua stammered, her eyes wandering
"Ok?"
"I'm just angry. Why can others get a share of sweet potatoes but I don't? My family obviously got a share of sweet potatoes." Huang Cuihua was hesitant at first, but she became more and more confident as she spoke, and finally she just yelled out
"Don't you know why your family doesn't have it? Besides, I was the one who distributed the sweet potatoes. If you have a grudge, why do you go to the Chen family instead of me?" Father Lin was so angry that he laughed.
"They found the sweet potatoes with great difficulty! Why should they share them with us? But they gave us half of them in the end. Have you ever thought about why?"
"Why? Of course, they are able to survive because of our protection. If it weren't for us, they would have been killed by bandits who came from nowhere. How could they have the chance to stand here like this? These sweet potatoes should all belong to us! If they don't give them, we will just kick them out!"
"Good for you!" Father Lin was furious, "So that's what you think. I didn't expect you to say such a thing!"
Huang Cuihua lowered her head guiltily, but still said stubbornly: "Well...then I am also thinking about the people in our village..."
"For the sake of the villagers? Why do you know that?" Father Lin was so angry that his beard began to tremble. He was always calm, but this time he was really angry.
"Village chief, calm down." Sui He quickly advised, "This matter has been clarified, so let's think about how to solve it."
Father Lin took a breath, stared at the other people watching and said, "Who else thinks this way? Do you think the Chen family relies on our protection?"
"Humph," Old Man Lin snorted coldly, "I'm telling you, put away your confrontational tactics, and still think you're in Lin Village?"
"We are all the same now, all fleeing famine and becoming refugees. Since we are in the same team, we should help each other and survive together, instead of being like her, envious of others and resentful of herself!" Father Lin pointed at Huang Cuihua,
"You are so disgusted with outsiders now, but don't forget where we are going. To them, we are also outsiders. Do you want to be excluded too?"
"Village chief, we didn't mean that. We have seen everything the Chen family did along the way," a villager said.
"Yes, Village Chief, calm down, we don't think so."
Everyone echoed his opinion, and only then did Father Lin barely calm down his anger.
"Huang Cuihua, you set fire and injured people, you must be punished." Father Lin said in a deep voice, "You must apologize to the Chen family and compensate them for their losses."
Huang Cuihua was reluctant, "Village Chief, please don't make it sound so serious. I didn't hurt anyone. I just burned their backpacks. The worst that can happen is that I have to pay some money. It's not like I haven't paid before."
After saying this, Sister Youliang glared at her fiercely.
"I didn't mean it." Huang Cuihua shuddered and muttered to herself.
"You didn't do it on purpose. If you did, would we all be dead?" The village chief was furious.
"Village Chief, you know, how could I possibly harm you?" Huang Cuihua looked at Father Lin aggrievedly.
"Brother Chen, take a look at what your family has lost?" After dealing with Huang Cuihua, Father Lin walked up to Master Chen with an apologetic look on his face.
"Brother Lin, most of our food has been burned, and our clothes have also been burned. Look at this..." Master Chen looked at the burnt things and sighed helplessly: "It's still two days before the next city, and we only have a little food in Sui Sui's backpack."
Mr. Chen was glad that he had kept all the valuables with him, otherwise they would have suffered a great loss.
