Chapter 18
Thinking about what Mrs. Wang did back then, Nan Zhi shook her body. She had some doubts that Li Zhu was not Mrs. Wang's own, and the tiger's poison would not eat its offspring. What if her own mother could do such a thing?

"Aniang, eat this, it's delicious."

Seeing Nan Zhi shaking his body, the dog thought that his mother was hungry, and stretched out his little hand to feed Nan Zhi some lard residue.

"Good boy, Mommy won't eat it. If the dog eats this piece, he won't be able to eat any more today." Nanzhi said with a smile.

"Okay, keep it for later." The dog nodded, and when he ate again, he took small bites, for fear that he would eat up today's amount in a big bite.

Fortunately, the courtyard wall is so high that Nanzhi is not afraid that they will come in, so he just let the dog stay in the room obediently, and moved all the food into the small cellar in the backyard, leaving only a bag of one hundred catties Black noodles and enough to eat for five or six days.

Tomorrow she has to take the dog back to her natal home.

With a plan in mind, Nanzhi was ready to start making dinner. Thinking about the seasonings he bought, Nanzhi felt that the corners of his mouth were already drooling.

From the day she came here, she can be said to be eating only oil and salt food every day, which is more uncomfortable than the weight loss meals she ate before. Now that the situation at home is better, she has to reward herself no matter what.

Thinking about the people outside the door again, Nanzhi still put away his thoughts of cooking with lard residue.

The smell of lard dregs is so delicious when cooked. If Mrs. Wang finds out that she has these things at home, she might have to snatch them away.

Originally, she thought that she could reward herself and the dog today, but now the situation is over. She only plans to steam a pot of dry rice and braise a potato.

Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Wang scolded for a long time outside the door, their mouths were already parched, and the weather was sweltering, and the two of them were already sweating.

Originally, not many people in the village take a bath now, and it's good that they don't sweat much on weekdays, but when they sweat, there will be a smell of rancidity.

The sky had already darkened, and Lizheng was worried that it would be unsafe in the dark, so he ordered everyone in the village to pack up their things and leave. Hundreds of households walked in a mighty manner, which looked quite spectacular.

Nanzhi's yard is close to the end of the village. When everyone came back after talking and laughing, they saw the panting Wu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

"Mrs. Wu, why don't you bring your mother-in-law to cook at home, why come to Mrs. Lin's house?"

Li Zheng looked at Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Wang's face darkening a few degrees. Neither of these two women is good, and they don't know what evil the Li family did in their previous life to marry such two women.

"Lizheng, Lizheng is back, you have to decide for us." Mrs. Wang's eyes lit up when she saw Shen Dashan bringing the villagers back, and she immediately began to cry for grievances.

"The decision? What decision?" Li Zheng looked at Mrs. Wang and sneered.

"What else do you need me, a little Lizheng, to be the master of?"

After hearing Shen Dashan's words, the people around fell silent.

Who didn't know what happened to Li Zhu back then?
Mrs. Wang went to the village next door to force a marriage, not to mention, she went to make trouble every now and then, and finally forced her daughter to death and then went to ask for compensation. At first, she was stopped by the police to stop her, but she was still confronted in front of so many people in the next village. slapped her.

Later, he threatened that Shen Dashan was not qualified to control her in this small town.

After that, rumors spread that girls in Lihua Village were not allowed to marry. People with girls in their families naturally resented Mrs. Wang, but what can they do?
Four years had passed since this incident, and everyone tacitly pretended it never happened.

Now that Shen Dashan said it in one sentence, a smart person naturally knew that Li Zheng couldn't accommodate the Li family.

Mrs. Wang also froze. She couldn't count how many people she had offended in her life. At the beginning, it was Shen Dashan who led people to stop her from asking for compensation, but the daughter she had raised for 19 years died in vain. Now, she hasn't reaped any benefits yet, how can she be willing?

Thinking that the vain money would not reach her pocket, she was too anxious to do those things.

Later, she was also worried that Shen Dashan would wear small shoes to their family, but the days passed slowly and nothing happened, she just regarded it as the past.

Who knew that Shen Dashan would suddenly mention it today.

Thinking about the consequences of the matter, Mrs. Wang's face gradually turned pale, and she didn't speak again.

"Li Zheng, you can't cover up that little widow this time!" Wu Shi didn't notice the change in the surrounding atmosphere at all, her face looked like a nightshade because of excitement.

"Listen, everyone, that little widow has done a lot of harm." Mrs. Wu yelled at the people around her, and pointed to the closed door.

"It's the little widow who didn't tell us when she found something good on Dongshan Mountain. My father-in-law was caught by a snake when he went up the mountain, and he is still lying at home now! The doctor at Jishitang said that if there is no five taels of silver, there will be no cure at all. Bad legs!"

Wu Shi still pretended to be sad while talking.

Shen Dashan glanced at Mrs. Wang who stopped talking, then turned to look at Mrs. Wu who was performing hard, "Then tell me, what good things did Mrs. Lin find?"

"This..." Wu's eyes rolled. She was thinking about the chestnuts on the mountain. If everyone in the village knew about it, wouldn't she be able to pick up less?

"She found bushes of wild vegetables on the mountain! Who's life is going to be easier now? She's just following that little bastard...that dog, two people, how did they eat so much, and they don't want to tell us. If you tell us the way, my father-in-law Where would there be a snake?"

Everyone in the village followed Lizheng back, and those who followed found Lizheng stopped at Lin's door, and they all surrounded him one after another. Now that they heard Wu's words, their hearts sank.

Everyone gathered at the entrance of the village at noon today, and Li told everyone in front of everyone that Mrs. Lin took the dog to dig wild vegetables on Dongshan Mountain yesterday afternoon and accidentally discovered the chestnut forest.

All the food that can be eaten in Xishan has been picked, but no one dares to go to Dongshan.

Isn't it because people were killed by wolves on Dongshan Mountain?
Now that Lin's orphans and widows found Chestnut Forest, the first thing he did was to tell the villagers, who could say anything bad about them without conscience?

Seeing Mrs. Wu's appearance, I'm afraid that the Li family knew about the chestnut forest, and accidentally encountered a snake when they touched Dongshan in the middle of the night. Listening to Mrs. Wu's words, I am afraid that old man Li will suffer a lot.

Before Shen Dashan opened his mouth, Aunt Qin had already stepped forward, "You are funny. A few days ago, your Shitou picked up bird eggs and didn't see you giving some to Lin. When they found the wild vegetable bushes, they had to tell you." One sound."

"Which one fell down on the mountain and didn't take care of it? Your family is fine. You were bitten by a snake on the mountain and came to ask Lin for compensation. Your mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have very big faces. Did you choke on drinking water one day? Ask the well digger for money?"

The sensible aunts in the village all followed up and asked questions. It can be said that everyone in the village owed Nanzhi a favor this time, and it would be heartless to help Mrs. Wang and the others.

If it's not easy for men to speak, then their women will come.

"You, you!" Seeing everyone's fingers trembling, Wu Shi couldn't figure out why people who usually only care about their own family affairs are speaking for the widow.

Looking at the silent mother-in-law behind her again, Mrs. Wu tugged at her sleeves, "Mother! Talk to me! Last time the dog was just beaten with a stone by our family and bled a little, so the little widow You've blackmailed us a hundred coins, and now father-in-law's legs are almost lost, mother!"

Mrs. Wang seemed to have just recovered, and ignored Mrs. Wu, just looked at Shen Dashan and said awkwardly: "Li Zheng, I'll go back right away."

After hearing this, Wu's eyes almost popped out. When was her mother-in-law ever afraid?Why do you have to drag yourself away with such a good opportunity today?
"mother……"

Before Mrs. Wu could finish speaking, Mrs. Wang had already rushed back to her house in a panic. Mrs. Wu wanted to speak again, but she trembled when she saw Shen Dashan's cold eyes, and hurriedly followed into the house.
