Father Mu clearly understood what Zhu meant. He looked at her gravely and said, "Let's forget about this matter. What are you going to do?"

"Will you make this a big deal and make the villagers uneasy?"

He added, "You think I don't want to avenge my baby?"

Zhu Shi either didn't understand this or she was filled with hatred. "Just thinking about how the other party harmed the baby, I wanted to eat him alive."

"The baby is only one year old, and they've done this to her. I'm afraid they'll use more shady tactics in the future."

She couldn't even imagine the consequences if her baby was plotted against by the villagers one day.

Father Mu frowned, looking worried. "We can only be on guard against this kind of thing..."

Before he could finish his words, Liu interrupted him hastily, "Dad, we can curse at the door."

Mu Baobao looked at his aunt blankly, not understanding what she meant by the curse.

Mu Laodi and others did not understand what Liu meant.

Liu explained, "Baby has had this happen, and it's related to the villagers, so we have to give them a good scolding at the doorstep."

"First, we need to let them know that we are not to be trifled with, and what the consequences will be if we do it again."

"Secondly, we need to let the villagers know that it is some ill-intentioned people in the village who want to harm our family and our baby."

"That way, the villagers will find out."

"The villagers have always been very curious about these things."

The villagers only have so much to do every day, so whenever there is something lively, they will look around.

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhu immediately handed Mu Baobao to Mu Laodi, and then took her three daughters-in-law to the door of the house.

Started cursing.

"What a beast! We're all from the same village. I know my family has never done anything against the law, yet you're plotting against my baby! Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"

"I wish those black-hearted people would give birth to sons without buttholes, and never have any descendants!"

"This kind of beast, all the children he gave birth to were from his wife and other men, none of them were his."

The Mu family's scolding attracted the attention of many neighbors.

"From what the Mu family said, it seems that someone in our village has maliciously plotted against the Mu family?"

"I was wondering why Matchmaker Du would come to the Mu family to propose marriage out of the blue. Who in the village was jealous of the Mu family and did such a vicious thing?"

"I don't know who in the village did this. It's so vicious that they would murder a one-year-old child."

"Maybe it was done by those families who once did business with the Mu family. Those families often cursed the Mu family for being worthless."

Rumors in the village spread the fastest, especially new things.

Therefore, in less than half an hour, the news that Mu Baobao was plotted against by the villagers had spread throughout the village.

Everyone was discussing who did this.

Cheng Zishi and Doctor Deng were also discussing this matter.

"Young man from the Cheng family, what do you think about this matter?" Doctor Deng had some conspiracy theories.

He comes from a large family and is always accustomed to making things into conspiracy theories.

Cheng Zishi held the teacup and said calmly, "Doctor Deng, there's no need for conspiracy theories. This was probably done by someone in the village."

"Many people in the village envy the Mu family for their increasingly better lives and profitable business."

Doctor Deng, having seen enough darkness in human nature, expressed disgust. "Some people are always like this. They can't stand seeing others doing well."

"We have to find a way to help the baby with this matter."

He couldn't bear to see his apprentice suffer such humiliation.

Cheng Zishi had lived in the village for some time and realized that some things in the village could not be handled in the usual way.

"Doctor Deng, I will look into this matter."

He paused and added, "It's just that, in the village, our usual methods won't work."

"The villagers are very good at throwing tantrums and playing rogue."

Doctor Deng has traveled extensively for many years and knows a bit about the temperament of the villagers. "So, how do you plan to investigate?"

"This kind of thing is not easy to investigate."

Cheng Zishi was aware of this, "This matter certainly cannot be investigated immediately, but I can investigate it slowly."

"Besides, with the villagers talking about it, the person who did this must be feeling uneasy."

Doctor Deng understood his intention and said, "That's a good idea."

"It will eventually be found out, and it won't be too late to settle the accounts then."

This is what Cheng Zishi planned. There is no rush to settle the accounts, as long as the accounts can be settled, it will be fine.

"By the way, how long does Doctor Deng plan to stay here?"

Doctor Deng knew why he asked this question. "Don't worry, I'll stay here for a few more years."

"I have to wait until the baby has learned a certain skill before I can leave."

It was impossible for him to live in the village forever. After all, he was a wanderer and he had to go back to Rongdu from time to time.

Cheng Zishi nodded, indicating that he understood the reason. "I asked this, Doctor Deng, because I assumed the village chief would come to see you in a couple of days."

"The village chief approached me before and wanted me to teach the children in the village. But something happened, so I stopped teaching the children."

Doctor Deng waved his hand nonchalantly. "If the child has good manners and is likable, I wouldn't mind teaching him, but I won't accept him as a disciple."

The reason he accepted Bao Bao as his apprentice was purely a matter of chance and affinity.

Otherwise, he would not accept any more disciples.

As Cheng Zishi had expected, many villagers came to the village chief and asked him to plead with them and let Cheng Zishi and Doctor Deng teach the children in the village.

Village chief's house, front yard.

The village chief smoked his pipe and looked indifferently at the families standing before him: "You want me to help you intercede, what's your reason?"

Several families looked at each other.

"Village head, our village has finally got a teacher and a doctor. If they can teach our children, our village will surely have many useful people in the future."

"Yes, village chief, you will be proud of it then."

The village chief sneered, "How long can I live?"

Several families did not expect the village chief to say such a thing and were a little at a loss.

"Village Chief, we sincerely hope that Mr. Cheng and Doctor Deng can teach our child. Please help us to intercede for them."

"Village head, other villages envy our village for having a teacher and a doctor."

The village chief was a little impatient. "You want Mr. Cheng and Doctor Deng to teach your children. Is this how you ask them to do it?"

"Just your two mouths?"

"You guys are so shameless."

He mocked mercilessly, "Even the Mu family received Mr. Cheng's teachings because the baby saved Mr. Cheng and took care of his three meals a day."

He just looked down on the behavior of these people, who wanted to get all the benefits without paying any price.

Where in the world can such a good thing happen?

Several families laughed awkwardly, "Village Chief, isn't it the Mu family who is taking care of Mr. Cheng and Doctor Deng? There's no need for us to do anything else."
