Zhou Xiongfeng had not yet realized that his trial was approaching.

Qian Yue'e saw her eldest son covering his face every day, even having his meals brought into the house to eat, and hiding all day like a night owl.

She was worried.

"Son, why don't you come out all day and hide in the house? What's wrong with you?"

"Talk to Mom."

Qian Yue'e knocked on Zhou Xiongfeng's door.

"Oh, Mom, don't worry about it. I'm not feeling well. I've already asked for leave from the brigade, and the village chief has approved it."

Zhou Xiongfeng was panic-stricken. He was frightened by Zhou Ganmei's words.

He was also afraid that Xu Guoqiang would realize his mistake and cause trouble for him.

There wasn't even a mirror in the room, so I could only cover my face.

Qian Yue'e said worriedly outside the house.

"Son, I think you should stay away from Zhou Ganmei. He's not a good person. Last time, he almost got you kicked out of the village. I don't know what you two are discussing, but he always deceives you."

"You'd better not date him anymore!"

Qian Yue'e had a bad feeling.

I always feel that Zhou Xiongfeng will suffer if he follows Zhou Ganmei.

"I know, mom, I know!"

It was too late for Zhou Xiongfeng to regret now. He lay on the bed with his head covered, not saying a word.

At this time, Chen Zhide, Chen Yuan and a group of people had already arrived at Zhou Xiongfeng's door.

Zhou Ganmei stood at the back of the team.

Finally, he desperately hoped that Zhou Xiongfeng's face had healed and that Zhou Xiongfeng could find a good way to clear his suspicion.

But don't drag him into this.

"Sister Yue'e, are you home?"

The person knocking on the door was Chen Zhide.

"Oh?" Qian Yue'e opened the door and saw Chen Zhide coming with Chen Yuan, Xu Guoqiang, Chen Chaoying and a group of people.

"This is?"

"Sister Yue'e, where is Xiongfeng? Isn't he at home?"

"Yes, yes!" Qian Yue'e pointed to the inner room.

"Inside the house. He hasn't been feeling well these past couple of days and hasn't come out."

Zhou Ganmei held onto the door frame, not daring to speak, just hoping that no one noticed him.

After Qian Yue'e said this, she suddenly seemed to think of something and looked at Chen Yuan and Xu Guoqiang vigilantly.

"What do you want with him?"

"Nothing, Sister Yue'e just wants to find out something from him. He's in the inner room, right? Okay. Let's go in and take a look."

Chen Zhide brought his men into Zhou Xiongfeng's house without saying anything.

Zhou Xiongfeng has been unable to sleep or eat these days. Any disturbance makes him like a frightened bird.

The voices of Chen Zhide and his group came from the crack in the door.

Zhou Xiongfeng thought he had heard it wrong.

He lay down and looked outside through the crack of the door, and to his surprise, it was Chen Zhide who came with a group of people.

Zhou Xiongfeng was so scared that he took a few steps back, his back pressed against the wall, not knowing where to escape.

A group of people were outside the house, trying to open the door.

And he was scurrying around like a mouse.

When he wanted to get into bed and cover his face with the quilt, Chen Zhide broke in with his men.

Qian Yue'e, the old lady with bound feet, was taking small steps.

"Oh, I told you Xiongfeng is sick. You guys barged in like this and scared him."

Zhou Xiongfeng is Qian Yue'e's eldest son and is very much loved.

Chen Yuan stepped forward and pulled the quilt off Zhou Xiongfeng.

Zhou Xiongfeng covered his face with his hands and lay on the bed shivering.

He hasn't even been tried yet, and he's already been frightened like this?

"What are you doing! What are you doing?!"

Qian Yue'e pointed at Chen Yuan and shouted angrily.

"I told you Xiongfeng was sick, and you took off his blanket. You made him catch a cold and get sick, and you're going to treat him?"

Chen Yuan ignored Qian Yue'e's accusations. He grabbed Zhou Xiongfeng's wrist with both hands and pulled it hard.

Zhou Xiongfeng's calico face was revealed, and what was more obvious was that there was a piece of exposed scalp right in front of Zhou Xiongfeng's head.

Chen Yuan snorted lightly. This was what we called conclusive evidence.

Chen Chaoying squeezed in from the crowd and saw Zhou Xiongfeng's appearance.

Zhou Xiongfeng was the thief that night.

She glared at Zhou Xiongfeng and cursed him viciously.

"It's you! You're the thief that night!"

Seeing that the matter had been exposed, Zhou Xiongfeng actually felt relieved.

Qian Yue'e couldn't believe it.

"What nonsense are you talking about? How could Zhou Xiongfeng steal things? What does my family need? Why would I need to steal things from you?"

"Is it missing? You know it!"

Chen Chaoying glared at Qian Yue'e.

Qian Yue'e doted on Zhou Xiongfeng beyond measure.

How old is Zhou Xiongfeng?

Qian Yue'e still thinks Zhou Xiongfeng is a child.

Qian Yue'e refused to believe it, but the next moment Chen Chaoying found the silver bracelet that Zhou Xiongfeng had hidden under his bed.

The evidence is conclusive.

"Zhou Xiongfeng, why did you come to my house to steal things? What on earth do you want to do? You are so obsessed with my things!"

Zhou Xiongfeng covered his face and said nothing.

Qian Yue'e swayed her body and slapped Zhou Xiongfeng hard on the back of the head.

"Speak up! Why are you stealing? Your family is short of food and drink? Why are you stealing things from other people's homes? Are those things good?"

Chen Chaoying snorted.

What is Qian Yue'e talking about?

Why aren't the things in her house good?

The one who was wrong was Zhou Xiongfeng.

It's not their fault.

Zhou Xiongfeng's gaze passed over the crowd and fell on Zhou Ganmei who was standing behind.

Zhou Ganmei had a stern face.

Zhou Xiongfeng looked at Zhou Ganmei.

He was cheated by Zhou Ganmei.

Chen Yuan bent down slightly and said to Zhou Xiongfeng.

"Zhou Xiongfeng, do you have anything to say? The amount of stolen items is huge. If it is sent to the Public Security Bureau, it will definitely be a serious crime!"

"You might even have to eat peanuts. Think carefully. No one can save your life unless you confess and get leniency."

"Were you bewitched? Or were you instructed by someone?"

Zhou Ganmei felt cold all over.

He stared at Zhou Xiongfeng, hoping that Zhou Xiongfeng would not say it out loud.

But Zhou Xiongfeng was also frightened by Chen Yuan's words.

He only has one life, what can Zhou Ganmei give him?

Zhou Ganmei didn't give him anything he promised.

"It was him! He was the one who asked me to steal!"

"who is it?"

Everyone asked.

Qian Yue'e was even more concerned, and she also realized that the person who really instructed Zhou Xiongfeng was Zhou Ganmei.

Qian Yue'e rushed into the crowd and threw out Zhou Ganmei who was trying to escape.

"It's you again. You're the one who harmed my son again."

"Zhou Xiongfeng, what did you say? Did I instruct you?"

Seeing that Zhou Ganmei refused to admit it, Zhou Xiongfeng knew that Zhou Ganmei was about to sacrifice his pawns to save his chariot.

"It's you! You asked me to go to Xu Guoqiang's house to steal the key to the granary and steal things."

"Don't talk nonsense. Did I let you go, Zhou Xiongfeng? Where is the key?"

"I gave you the key a long time ago. You went to the granary with Li Gou'er that night. But that key wasn't the key to the granary. I stole the wrong one."

Zhou Xiongfeng blurted out everything he and Zhou Ganmei had conspired to do.

Zhou Ganmei was flustered and wanted to deny it.

During the dog-eat-dog fight between the two people.

Li Gou'er has lived up to Zhou Ganmei's expectations and invited Zhao Qingjian over.
