The house was in a chaotic mess for a long time.

Watching Hao Renming's face change from white to red, from red to purple, and from purple to blue.

Li Yan finally agreed to let her younger brother throw his clothes to her.

Hao Renming turned around in a fluster and quickly put on his clothes.

"daughter in law..."

"Who's your wife? How dare you call me that?"

Li Yan waved her hand, and her two younger brothers immediately stepped forward.

"Take those two scoundrels to the commune; this marriage must end today!"

Hao Renming looked ashen-faced. He owed his success entirely to his father-in-law. If the marriage ended, he would be unable to make a living in Jinshui Town.

But given the current situation, Hao Renming has absolutely no hope of turning things around.

He glared fiercely at Mu Yu.

It's all her fault!

It's all because of that little bitch!

Why did she have to ask me out today of all days?!

Mu Yu was curled up in a ball, trembling.

This shouldn't be the case.

What should we do now?

She didn't want to be criticized or berated by everyone.

Soon, Hao Renming and Mu Yu were dragged out.

When she appeared in the courtyard, Huo Jiyun was stunned for a moment.

Isn't this the woman he rescued from Leishan two weeks ago who was about to commit suicide?

She was actually the woman who had an affair with Hao Renming.

Mu Yu's gaze swept across the crowd before settling on a patch of green.

Huo Jiyun!

She suddenly looked up, staring incredulously at the man who should have been lying in bed with her.

Beside him was Joan.

Qiao An looked at her with a half-smile, her eyes full of mockery.

This matter is full of strangeness and mystery.

Mu Yu knew something must have gone wrong somewhere, but only she and her second brother, Mu Zhifeng, knew about the whole thing, and there was no way she could tell a third person.

Why didn't Huo Jiyun come? Why did Hao Renming come instead?

Why was it Li Yan, not Mu Zhifeng, who came to catch them in the act of adultery?

Mu Yu had a splitting headache and couldn't make sense of anything.

At that moment, Mu Zhifeng happened to run to No. 17 Donghu Road.

Seeing the large crowd at the entrance, he stopped and carefully examined the house number.

Yes, it's No. 17 Donghu Road. What's going on here?

He pulled someone aside and asked about the situation.

Only then did they learn that it was commune secretary Hao Renming who was having an affair with a woman, and they had been caught in bed together by his wife.

Mu Zhifeng licked his lips, not daring to go any further.

A short while later, Hao Renming and Mu Yu were dragged out of the gate by their arms twisted behind their backs.

She looked up and saw Mu Zhifeng. Just as she was about to call him "Second Brother," Mu Zhifeng darted away and disappeared into the crowd.

The group marched in a grand procession toward Jinshui Town Commune.

Huo Jiyun and Qiao An followed at a distance.

"I think I understand, but I also don't seem to understand," Huo Jiyun said, scratching his head.

He excels at both fighting on the battlefield and devising attack plans.

However, Huo Jiyun was somewhat slow to react to this kind of intrigue and backstabbing.

But he realized that the whole affair involving Joanne was related to him.

"This was originally meant for me, wasn't it?" Huo Jiyun turned to ask Qiao An.

"That's right."

"Did you do it?"

"They've been together for a long time, I didn't slander Mu Yu's innocence out of thin air."

Huo Jiyun nodded. "So what does she want? To have a relationship with me?"

As Huo Jiyun said this, he carefully observed Qiao An's expression.

"I'm not a casual man."

Qiao An knew this, of course, but the juice of that stone-scented grass was probably very potent. Even if Huo Jiyun was very resilient, if he walked into that room today, he might fall into the arms of a woman.

"She wants you. Mu Yu wants her second brother, Mu Zhifeng, to catch you cheating, and then use that to blackmail you into divorcing me so you can marry her."

"What?" Huo Jiyun exclaimed in surprise.

"Are you kidding me? Is she crazy?"

"She's not crazy, she just desperately wants to leave this place. She's willing to do anything to leave Lianchi Village and stop living like this."

"But I still don't understand, how did you know their plan?"

Qiao An said matter-of-factly, "On my way home from get off work, I passed by the cowshed and overheard her talking to Mu Zhifeng about scheming against you, so I eavesdropped for a while."

"Since they've handed me a gong, I'll strike it. I'll send someone to inform Hao Renming that Mu Yu is waiting for him here, and I'll also send someone to find Li Yan and tell her that Hao Renming has invited her and her brother to meet here to discuss important matters."

"By staggering the times we agreed with them, we were able to put together this grand show today."

Huo Jiyun had to admire Qiao An's little tricks; an ordinary person might have thought Qiao An was cunning.

But he didn't think so.

It's just like a battlefield. If you know the other side is trying to trap you, are you going to pretend you don't see it?

Of course, it's best to strike first and deliver a fatal blow to the opponent.

"You seem to know her quite well. Do you know her?" Huo Jiyun noticed that Qiao An knew their names.

Qiao An's trip to Shenzhou to meet her relatives could no longer be kept secret, so she simply used this opportunity to reveal her relationship with the Mu family.

Moreover, this time they did not hide it from Huo Jiyun.

"So...you really are the Mu family's biological daughter?" Huo Jiyun's voice was very soft, so soft that only the two of them could hear it.

"Yes, but they only allowed me to go back because they wanted me to be sent to the countryside in place of Mu Yu."

"Despicable! Shameless!" Huo Jiyun clenched his fists.

The Mu family is utterly shameless. Fortunately, Qiao An is smart and quick-witted.

Huo Jiyun looked down at her, his eyes filled with indescribable heartache.

I thought my life at home was tough enough.

Unexpectedly, Joan was even worse than him.

Her adoptive parents didn't like her, which is why they married her off to an old bachelor like themselves.

Even her biological parents ignored her.

Huo Jiyun made up his mind.

As long as he is alive, no one can bully Qiao An.

The commune was in complete chaos.

Li Yan called the county party committee and told her father about it.

The county party committee leaders personally ordered Hao Renming and Mu Yu to be imprisoned.

We awaited the arrival of county leaders the following day to handle the matter personally.

The festivities are over for today.

Huo Jiyun and Qiao An rode their bicycles back to Lianchi Village.

The cold wind stung Joan's cheeks, but she was very happy.

Mu Yu, this timeless bomb, has been dealt with.

Even if she doesn't go to jail, Mu Yu will never be able to cause any trouble in Jinshui Town again.

That evening, Qiao An cooked four dishes and also washed a basin of strawberries from her space orchard.

The strawberries were as big as a palm. Joan tasted them; they were sweet and sour, bursting with juice in every bite.

The three children had never seen a strawberry before.

Huo Jiyun stared at it for a while, wondering what it was.

Joanne invited them to eat together.

"Mom! This hawthorn is so sweet and sour, it's so delicious!" Huo Ning hugged a big strawberry and ate it, his face covered in juice.

Huo Fang smiled and wiped her face, not forgetting to pinch it as she did so.

"The strawberries my second aunt brought back are called strawberries. I've seen them in comic books."

Although Huo Jiyun had spent most of his time in the Northwest, he had heard of the name "Strawberry".

One year, the brigade commander went to the capital for a meeting and said that he ate a fruit called strawberry, which was as big as an apricot, bright red, and had many seeds on the skin.

Looking at it this way, it does resemble the fruit that Joan took out.

But this strawberry is way too big!
