Chapter 39

"Platoon Leader Zhao, thank you for sending me back."

Bai Ying opened the car door and got out, expressing her sincere gratitude.

Regardless of whether Zhao Dayong sent her back because of Shen Ao, he did help her a lot, allowing her to successfully return home before dark and avoid Chu Xianglan's worry.

Zhao Dayong waved his hand and said, "Comrade Bai, you are too polite. This is what I should do. If you are fine, then I will leave first."

"Wait," Bai Ying was about to nod when she suddenly remembered something, "I really have something to trouble you with."

"What's the matter? Just tell me!"

Zhao Dayong said frankly: "I will do whatever I can do, and I will try my best to do even if I can't do it!"

Bai Ying spoke truthfully, "I know the man who bullied me at the commune today. He's my sister-in-law's cousin. I saw him go back to her parents' home to see her cousin early this morning. He later said that my sister-in-law asked him to take me home. I suspect they conspired to do this, so I plan to ask you to take my sister-in-law to the police station as well."

Hearing this, Zhao Dayong was dumbfounded.

How can this be called a sister-in-law? She's clearly an enemy!

However, the lady is ruthless enough to kill her own relatives for the sake of justice. Most country people don't have the courage to do this.

"Row!"

Zhao Dayong agreed without hesitation. After all, the person being arrested was not his sister-in-law, so why would he hesitate to do it?

The village roads were too narrow, and the jeep was too wide, so it would be bad if it bumped into something. Zhao Dayong parked the jeep at the entrance of the village, got out, and followed Bai Ying to the Bai family's house.

At the same time, the Bai family.

Huang Xia walked on her own on the way back. She had just arrived home when she happened to meet Chu Xianglan who had just returned from Aunt Zhang's house after sewing a quilt.

Chu Xianglan looked at Huang Xia, who was sitting on the ground drinking water, and she had a bad feeling in her heart. "Old man, why are you back alone? Where is Yingzi?"

Huang Xia lied without blinking, "Mom, you don't know this, right? Yingzi and I ran into my cousin from my mother's side at the commune. Yingzi insisted on going shopping with him, so she asked me to go back first, saying that she wanted my cousin to take her home after shopping."

"No way?" Chu Xianglan was a little unconvinced.

It's not like she hasn't seen Huang Xia's cousin before. How can he be a decent person? He's clearly a second-rate person!

Her Yingzi has always been well-behaved and obedient, never playing around, how could she be involved with such a person?

Huang Xia's eyes narrowed into slits with joy. "I saw this with my own eyes, how could it be fake? Yingzi and my cousin get along very well. She said that after visiting the commune, she would stay at my cousin's house for a night. With my cousin accompanying her, you don't have to worry about it, Mom."

The more Chu Xianglan thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. She put down the things in her hands and turned to walk to the door. "No, I have to go to the commune and find Yingzi!"

Upon hearing this, Huang Xia stepped forward and grabbed Chu Xianglan, refusing to let go. "Mom, don't go! They'll be back together tomorrow. My cousin will then bring the betrothal gifts and discuss his marriage with Yingzi. That's fifty yuan! Isn't it better than my sister-in-law marrying a poor labor camp inmate?"

"What? Old man, how could you do this!"

Chu Xianglan's finger, which was pointing at Huang Xia, kept shaking.

What else doesn't she understand?

Huang Xia must have discussed this with her cousin long ago and asked her cousin to take Yingzi away before the wedding. As long as Yingzi stayed with the man for one night and did not return, Yingzi's reputation would be ruined, and she would then have no choice but to marry Huang Xia's cousin.

Chu Xianglan had never expected that the people from the older family followed Bai Ying to the commune not for the money in Bai Ying's hands, but for Bai Ying's people!

"You! You...are totally heartless!"

Chu Xianglan was so angry that she felt a black screen in front of her eyes and she staggered and was about to fall down.

"mother!"

Bai Ying had just walked to the gate of the courtyard when she saw this and quickly ran forward to support Chu Xianglan, helping her to breathe smoothly and pinching her knuckles.

It took a while for Chu Xianglan to recover.

She stared at Bai Ying beside her in a daze, and after confirming that it was not her hallucination, she raised her hands and hugged Bai Ying, crying breathlessly, "Wuwuwu... Yingzi, I'm glad you're okay, otherwise how would I live?"

Bai Ying's eyes suddenly softened, and she said softly, "Mom, I'm really fine, don't worry."

After Bai Ying's comfort, Chu Xianglan finally stopped crying.

Chu Xianglan came back to her senses and noticed that there was an extremely tall man standing next to Baiying. She wondered, "Yingzi, who is he?"
