Ancestors, I told you to seduce the villains, not to turn evil.

The woman fainted, and the village chief assigned several people to carry her back home.

If you miscarry at this time, you don't need to go to the hospital; you can just rest at home.

Xu Manman looked at the bloodstains on the ground and found them extremely jarring. She walked away uncomfortably.

Li Wu gave the woman thirty yuan, and fearing that others would bully Li Meng, he stayed by her side.

As Xu Manman was dividing the wolf meat, she saw a hand reach out from the side to take the meat from her bowl.

Xu Manman immediately slapped him across the face.

The other person cried out in pain and yelled at Xu Manman, "Why did you hit me?"

Xu Manman looked up unhappily, only to see a completely unfamiliar face.

After thinking carefully and reviewing my dreams, I finally realized who the other person was.

This is the second daughter-in-law of Fei's eldest uncle. When they took things from the Fei family, she took the most.

Xu Manman regretted that she hadn't been gentle enough with that slap.

Since the slap was lighter, Xu Manman slapped him again.

Then, with a cold face, he loudly questioned, "Meat thief, what? Didn't you get any meat at home? You want to take mine?"

Everyone who hadn't been paying attention to what was happening here immediately turned around when they heard Xu Manman's words.

Gossip is everywhere in the countryside; people love to watch the excitement, and they'll watch any kind of excitement.

Wu Hongmei was about to get angry after being slapped twice, but when dozens of eyes suddenly stared at her, she didn't dare to retaliate and forced a stiff smile.

"Third sister-in-law, what are you doing? Huainan was raised by my father-in-law. What's wrong with me taking a piece of your flesh?"

Xu Manman sneered: "A piece of meat? You're underestimating me. When Fei Huainan was sent back, he was half-dead. Your Fei family almost tore down the walls. What do you mean by a piece of meat? You just wanted to murder him for money, didn't you?"

Wu Hongmei's expression changed: "Third sister-in-law, you can't say things like that. We didn't say anything."

Xu Manman wouldn't let her off the hook: "No? Do you dare let the villagers go to your house and see if our wardrobe, dining table, bowls and chopsticks are all in your house?"

“You’ve taken everything that could be moved, and you still want to talk about the debt of gratitude for raising us? Don’t be ridiculous.”

“If you were legitimate relatives, I would naturally acknowledge you, but you almost killed my husband. From now on, our two families are enemies.”

"Get out of here now, or I'll sue you for murder for money."

"If you don't believe me, you can try it."

Wu Hongmei wanted to refute, but when she opened her mouth, she realized that what Xu Manman said was the truth.

She was so frightened that she quickly ran away. How could she not know that Fei Huainan's wife was so fierce, like a tigress?

It's so scary.

Upon seeing this, everyone looked at Xu Manman with a hint of fear in their eyes.

Aunt Lin immediately stood up and spoke up for Xu Manman: "It's Fei Zhendong's family who are dishonest. Many people saw them moving things. It's not an exaggeration to say that they were trying to kill for money."

"It's just that Huainan was lucky and survived on his own; otherwise, someone else might have been gone long ago."

"Besides, it was Fei Zhendong who publicly said he wanted to sever ties with Fei Huainan; everyone heard it."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately spoke up.

“I can testify to this. Back then, Fei Zhendong didn’t care about his nephew’s life or death at all and took all his things away.”

Everyone was talking at once, saying that the Fei family's actions were dishonest and that the villagers thought they were too ruthless.

Severing ties is acceptable, but you can't drive your own nephew to his death.

Xu Manman was quite satisfied with this; it was good to sever ties so that no one would dare to interfere in her life anymore.

She just likes a peaceful and leisurely life.

Zhao Hu had witnessed Xu Manman's eloquence before, so he wasn't surprised at all that she had managed to drive the person away with her words.

He still vividly remembered the scene when Xu Manman was so angry that she almost pointed at their minister and started cursing.

Dealing with a relative with questionable character is a piece of cake.

Everyone was chattering away when it was Xu Manman's turn to divide the meat.

Just as the village chief was about to come out and stop them, Zhao Hu said to the people distributing the meat, "Hurry up, can't you see everyone is lining up?"

Upon hearing this, the person dividing the meat sped up.

The village chief looked at the meat and bones that had already been put into Xu Manman's basin, opened his mouth, but said nothing.

Forget it, it's just a piece of meat. What's the harm in eating it? We still won't have any food in winter.

Li Wu had been keeping a close eye on Fei Huainan. Whenever Fei Huainan and Xu Manman bought grain, they would immediately arrest them and accuse them of speculation and profiteering.

As the days went by, the two of them rarely went out, let alone bought food.

Even the village chief was curious about how these two people lived their lives at home.

Xu Manman was unaware of the village chief's thoughts. After she received her share of the meat, she waited for Aunt Lin to receive her share of the wolf meat before they left together.

As she approached her doorstep, Xu Manman saw Liu Boyu standing at her door.

Liu Boyu is here again. It seems that every time there is any movement on Fei Huainan's side, Liu Boyu immediately rushes over to investigate.

This man was quick-witted; while others didn't suspect Fei Huainan at all, Liu Boyu was the first to think of Fei Huainan.

After Xu Manman and Aunt Lin parted ways, Aunt Lin gave Xu Manman a worried look and said, "If there's any problem, just call me."

Xu Manman nodded, thanked Aunt Lin for her kindness, and went home.

Li Boyu was standing at the door. When he saw Xu Manman, he immediately gave her a gentle smile.

"I heard that Huainan went up the mountain today. It seems that his legs are almost healed."

Xu Manman rolled her eyes. This person was as annoying as ever.

After she went in, she closed the door immediately and did not let Liu Boyu in.

Instead, they gave him the order to leave: "You are not welcome in our home. Please don't come again."

Seeing that Xu Manman was completely unwilling to pay attention to him, Liu Boyu quickly spoke up.

"Han Shaohua sent me. He asked me to bring you something."

Liu Boyu knew Han Shaohua's abilities, and he assumed the two were already together.

Even if they didn't end up together, they were definitely mutually attracted to each other.

Liu Boyu deliberately mentioned Han Shaohua, and Xu Manman stopped in her tracks.

She looked up at Liu Boyu.

Liu Boyu immediately took out a watch from his pocket: "Han Shaohua asked me to bring this to you."

The brand-new Plum Blossom watch, not the most premium model, is still worth over a hundred.

Xu Manman glanced at it but didn't take it.

"What are you doing at my house?"

Liu Boyu thought Xu Manman was just a simple country girl and didn't have any ulterior motives, so he smiled and spoke.

“I am a comrade-in-arms from Huainan. It’s just that you were concerned about his injuries back then. You don’t need to be so wary of me.”

"I heard that people from Huainan went up the mountain today."

Xu Manman nodded.

A hint of gloom flashed in Liu Boyu's eyes, but he quickly regained his refined demeanor: "He went hunting in the mountains?"

Xu Manman shook her head: "I went to pick persimmons."

"persimmon?"

"Yes, there is a persimmon tree on the mountain."

Liu Boyu looked into Xu Manman's eyes with a more scrutinizing gaze, then asked for the location of the persimmon tree before leaving.

Xu Manman went into the kitchen after Liu Boyu left, where Fei Huainan was kneading dough.

When he saw Xu Manman walk in, his expression softened.

"Can we have scallion pancakes today?"
