After being wrongly married, I stabbed my husband to death and became famous throughout the world.

Li Shu showed a somewhat helpless expression and sighed deeply.

The official glanced at Li Shu but did not respond to Li Chutian's words.

Of all the people sent up the mountain to serve their sentences, the Li family had the most troubles. They lost firewood before, and now someone has died. One thing after another, the family's father was even more interesting. First, he wanted to sell his eldest daughter, and when that failed, he came up with another plan.

But this matter of poisonous mushrooms isn't something that two officials can decide on their own.

Moreover, after hearing what the girl had just said, they realized that she had someone in the military camp. Although they didn't know whether Captain Ma cared about her life or death, they dared not gamble.

Furthermore, there's that Dr. Cheng who came a couple of days ago...

The doctor was young, but quite influential in the army. If this young girl died, and people asked about it…

If you want to ensure that you can do your job steadily, then you can't mess with people you shouldn't mess with.

So the officials quickly made their decision and said directly, "Several of us heard it clearly that day. Your eldest daughter couldn't distinguish poisonous mushrooms, so she planned to consult with Doctor Cheng. Doctor Cheng even told us on his way back that he had bought medicinal herbs from your eldest daughter. She does indeed have a habit of hoarding things and saving money. As for your youngest daughter..."

“She admitted to stealing mushrooms herself, and she even made the soup herself. This crime… isn’t something you can just pin on whoever you want.” What they said was true.

This family is a mess; the father doesn't act like a father, and the daughter doesn't act like a daughter.

But in this family, the one who had some sense and ability was the eldest daughter.

Upon hearing this, Li Chutian looked disappointed: "Sir, this brat is very cunning..."

"Hey, Mr. Li, we heard you used to work at the post station, so we're giving you some face. But don't get too cocky! The case is the government's business. We can't decide how the higher-ups decide. Besides, the dead man was a criminal. I'm sure you know that quite a few prisoners have died on this mountain. If one or two of them die... what's so strange about pursuing this?" The soldiers were getting impatient and said bluntly.

They were willing to help hire a doctor only for the money.

Moreover, given their status, there are countless ways for them to extract benefits from these criminals. By helping them run errands, they are already showing exceptional conscience.

Li Chutian's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately shut his mouth.

He also knew that among this group of people who went into the mountains, he and his wife had the most serious crimes. They had raised a son who was an accomplice to bandits. If it weren't for the many benefits he had given them, they would have suffered a lot.

The officers and soldiers said all they had to say and left with the doctor.

The father and daughter were left behind, both looking uneasy.

At this moment, Li Chutian realized something: if Li Shu continued to cause trouble, the whole family would perish in these mountains.

“Ah Li, I know you hate Zhou Shi and hate how she mistreated you all these years, but now that she’s dead, I think you can calm down. Do you really have to wait until your father also dies in the mountains before you’re satisfied?” Li Chutian changed quickly and began to patiently play the emotional card.

"So what?" Li Shu didn't argue with him, but instead wanted to see what kind of nonsense he could come up with.

“I admit that I was biased towards you before, but Ah Li, you should also think carefully about what our family has left now! If we continue to make trouble like this, what good will it do you?” Li Chutian said this sincerely.

Li Shu was, after all, his daughter.

“Now that our family has a reputation for colluding with bandits, who will respect you anymore? You are a young woman, and without a good reputation, you will be talked about behind your back for the rest of your life. If your parents are gone, who will you rely on in the future? When you leave this mountain, won’t you be humiliated to death?” Li Chutian said seriously.

He can now sense that his daughter wants everyone to suffer.

But would that be a good thing for her?!

Unless she doesn't want to live anymore!

Listening to Li Chutian's words, Li Shu felt that this man had finally calmed down a bit.

As Li Chutian said, if in the future all the elders of the Li family are gone, Li Linsheng dies, and Li Man harms his mother, and these things spread one after another, as a daughter of the Li family, she will inevitably be criticized, and may even be ostracized and suspected.

This confirms Zhou's description of the creature as a "jinx" or "broom star".

At that time, not to mention the Ma and Niu families, even if Uncle Chen's side wanted to take them in, they would have to be wary of gossip.

Li Chutian's words make a lot of sense.

However... she could not bear such an outcome.

She could go to jail or even be verbally abused, because that was the path she chose. But to let Li Chutian get through those three years peacefully? She just didn't want to suffer that humiliation.

However, at this moment, Li Shu did not refute his words.

“I know you don’t trust me. Today I can give you the land deed for ten acres of land in the eastern suburbs. I will sign and seal it and never go back on my word. With these properties, if I dare to sell you in the future, you can use the properties to redeem yourself or sell them to take revenge on me. You know that these acres of land have been passed down from our ancestors. I have always cared about these things and would never want such a thing to happen... So you can rest assured.”

“From now on, my daughter and I will put aside our past grievances.” Li Chutian explained with both reason and emotion, and after saying this, he immediately went to fetch the things.

He was unusually candid for once.

He knew in his heart that this was a last resort. He had never imagined that his daughter would be so cunning, able to turn the family upside down with just a few words.

The family has already suffered enough losses; if we continue fighting, both sides will be severely damaged.

Li Chutian also felt some regret, regretting that he had been too ruthless in the past, and also regretting that he had let her grow up to where she is now.

Li Shu accepted the land deed.

Good land is scarce in this town, and it is almost all in the hands of wealthy families, but the land that Li Chutian is offering up now is indeed one of the best plots of land belonging to the Li family.

It seems that this time, the other party didn't try anything funny with her.

"You're my own father, so don't worry, you'll never die by my hand." Li Shu's words remained carefree.

“I need you to promise that you won’t deliberately destroy the firewood I cut, that you won’t come here to cause trouble every few days, and that you won’t encourage Aman to disobey you,” Li Chutian said immediately.

“Okay.” Li Shu nodded.

“If you fail to do so, may your mother be reborn as an animal in your next life! May your uncle’s family line end!” Li Chutian quickly added.

"..." Li Shu looked at him with some surprise. These words were quite harsh, and they accurately grasped the thing that the original owner cared about most.

The only two people the original owner cared about, whether alive or dead, were these two.

“No problem,” Li Shu agreed.

Li Shu took the contract with great pleasure; how could he refuse such a benefit that was offered to him?
