Lin Shuyun appeared not far behind Jiang Shuixian, holding a new broom.

Her broom broke, so she went to the village chief's house to buy a new one. She stopped by to take a look, and unexpectedly overheard someone talking badly about Jiang Shuixian.

That makes sense, though. Apart from the Jiang family, who else would speak ill of her?

"Ah! Lin family, you dare to come here!"

Jiang Shuixian was caught speaking ill of Lin Shuyun in front of everyone, and her expression turned a little unpleasant. However, she had met all sorts of men and was no longer afraid of Lin Shuyun.

Compared to those wealthy gentlemen, Lin Shuyun was nothing.

"What do I have to be afraid of? Does this village belong to you?" Lin Shuyun glanced at Jiang Shuixian.

They used to look silly, and even though they were brainless, at least they looked like human beings. Now they don't even look human anymore.

Jiang Shuixian originally wanted to curse back, but then she changed her mind and started to cry pitifully.

"You sent me into that hellhole, making me cry every day. You deserve to be struck by lightning!"

"If someone as good as me were struck by lightning, then God would be truly blind. Didn't you insist on going there yourself? Did you see that this person is rich and decide to turn over a new leaf?"

Lin Shuyun knew immediately what Jiang Shuixian was up to. Just as she finished speaking, Gu Nanfeng walked out of the courtyard gate.

Looking at Gu Nanfeng, who was dressed in fine clothes and had an extraordinary air about him, Jiang Shuixian was secretly delighted. Such understated fabric must mean he was a rich man.

Her mother finally did something good. If she can get close to this master this time, she won't have to suffer at Chunfeng Tower anymore.

"My lord, I have been humiliated by this wicked woman, you must do me justice!"

Jiang Shuixian cried and rushed towards Gu Nanfeng, intending to fall at his feet and grab his leg. Men who went to Chunfeng Tower were most susceptible to this.

"I'm not an official, why should I make decisions for you? Get lost, you stink."

When Gu Nanfeng saw the woman, whose clothes were exposed and covered in cheap perfume, rushing towards him, he instinctively dodged to the side, almost kicking her in disgust.

Jiang Shuixian missed her target and almost fell face-first to the ground.

"Pfft..." Lin Shuyun burst out laughing.

This guy is pretty skilled, and he has a really sharp tongue.

Gu Nanfeng glanced at Lin Shuyun. He had already heard in the courtyard that this woman was Lin Shi.

She wasn't stunningly beautiful, but she was still quite pretty.

Would a woman like that really kill someone? Gouge out someone's eyes?

Seeing Gu Nanfeng looking at her, Lin Shuyun also looked at him, staring intently at him, which made Gu Nanfeng frown.

Just as he was about to speak, Madam Xu arrived.

"Well, you jinx, your whole family has finally returned! You wicked woman, you've ruined our family so badly, and you still dare to come back! Sir, this is my eldest daughter-in-law, Lin Shi!"

When Xu heard that Jiang Shuixian had returned, she hurriedly came to look for her. Unexpectedly, Lin Shuyun was also there, as well as Wang Laosan's daughter.

Wang Laosan's daughter hid like a fool behind a tree outside the yard, not moving an inch, and even the thick tree couldn't stop her.

Lin Shuyun saw Xu Shi frown in disgust, "You've been acting up so many times, and you still haven't behaved. I wonder who gave you the courage!"

If it weren't for Jiang Changtian's sake, she would have killed this man.

“I am your mother-in-law, how dare you speak to me like that? You saw this gentleman, this Lin Shi, too…”

"roll!"

As Xu was about to grab her arm, Lin Shuyun instantly calmed down and uttered a single word, "Get lost!" which frightened Xu so much that she stood frozen in place, too afraid to move.

Gu Nanfeng had initially had a fairly good impression of Lin Shuyun, mainly because of her good looks. But after hearing the word "get lost," his expression immediately turned disgusted.

A woman who doesn't understand filial piety can't be a good person either.

"Telling your mother-in-law to get out? You're incredibly ill-mannered! Absolutely wicked!"

He was now starting to believe Xu's story.

Regardless of whether Lin was the murderer or not, her wickedness was undeniable.

Lin Shuyun, who was originally planning to go home, turned around and looked at Gu Nanfeng after hearing this. "Who are you? What's it to you? You don't eat much but you meddle a lot. Why are you so nosy? Do you think you're some kind of righteous critic? If you're so capable, why don't you just fly to the moon!"

Although Gu Nanfeng didn't understand some of the words, he understood the mocking tone. He looked at Lin Shuyun and sneered, "Hmph, glib tongue!"

As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed Lin Shuyun.

He only needed to probe slightly to find out whether Guo San was the murderer.

Lin Shuyun stood still, but when her arm was grabbed, the broom fell to the ground. A smile appeared in her eyes, and she shouted loudly.

"Help! Someone has assaulted me in the village! Help! Husband, please come and save me!"

That incredibly loud voice almost pierced people's eardrums.

The five people, Qingfeng, Yinzhu, Tingni, Jinshe, and Moyun, who were hiding in the shadows, had been watching this courtyard.

At this moment, Tingni couldn't help but smile, "Young Madam is quite the actress. Qingfeng, do you think we should go and play the hero to save the damsel in distress?"

"You think it's your turn? Look to your right!" the golden snake sneered.

Sure enough, when Tingni looked over there, Jiang Changtian was already coming over, leaning on his cane.

Meanwhile, the villagers all came out to watch the excitement.

Gu Nanfeng's ears hurt from the sound, and in the short time he was stunned, even though so many people were watching the spectacle.

He instinctively reached to let go of Lin Shuyun's arm, but a person was already standing in front of him, with a cold and unfriendly gaze.

Jiang Changtian almost ran over when he heard the sound. His speed was so fast that it was hard to believe he was a cripple. He arrived before his cane even reached him.

"Let go! Why did you do this to my wife!"

Lin Shuyun pouted, revealing an extremely aggrieved expression, with tears welling up in her eyes.

"My lord, you've finally arrived! I was just borrowing a broom and passing by this family's house when he came out of the yard and tried to grab me, trying to drag me into the yard. I never imagined that this seemingly respectable person would be like this. I was so scared, sob sob sob...!"

Gu Nanfeng's expression changed. He had only been testing the waters, not pulling him into the courtyard.

At this moment, Gu Nanfeng didn't bother to explain. He shook off Lin Shuyun's hand and stared at Jiang Changtian with a changing expression, asking questions.

"who are you?"

"Who I am is unimportant; what matters is why you dared to bully my wife! A true man would rather die than be humiliated! I have no grudge against you!"

Jiang Changtian's eyes were filled with anger as he pulled Lin Shuyun over to protect him behind him.

Lin Shuyun showed her wrist, "Husband, look, my arm is all bruised, it hurts so much!"

A bruise appeared on his wrist, which looked quite alarming.

Seeing the expression on his face that looked like he wanted to kill Gu Nanfeng, Gu Nanfeng finally came to his senses, suppressed his emotions, and looked at Jiang Changtian and Lin Shuyun before speaking.

"What a cunning woman, twisting the truth!"

"You're so fiercely protective of such a wicked woman, even abandoning your own parents. Are you blind to her true nature?"

For a fleeting moment, he thought the person standing in front of him was General Chang Tian.

"Everyone in the village can testify to right and wrong. Who are you to criticize them? Or are you their relative who came here specifically to stand up for them? If you have a problem, come at me. Why did you assault my wife!"
