Reborn as a farmer's favorite, Koi sweet wife super lucky husband
Chapter 218: The Truth Revealed
The third son of the Zhao family was eager to defend himself and interrupted, "Let's not talk about the house sale for now. Just talking about the fact that you beat up my second sister-in-law, you can't deny this, right? The injuries on my second sister-in-law's body are the best proof. My eldest sister-in-law saw it with her own eyes. There is complete evidence, and you can't get away with it."
When Lin Yu, Wu Xu and others heard this, their anxiety was beyond words.
Ran He just laughed it off: "Sister-in-law is a sister of our family, so it's natural for her to turn her elbow inward, and it's not impossible for her to give false testimony. If the three of you can squeeze money from us, everyone's pockets will be full, and you will naturally be happy to join forces to perform this drama. As for the wound, who knows if it's a drama you wrote and directed yourself in order to frame someone, or if it was your second brother who did it himself, trying to take advantage of this opportunity to make another fortune. With such behavior, who will dare to open the door to welcome guests in the future? If everyone follows suit, who will dare to easily accept outsiders into the house?"
The third son of the Zhao family was left speechless by this series of questions.
"You are using strong words to make sense!"
The third daughter-in-law of the Zhao family's face turned red and she protested loudly in excitement.
At this time, the usually silent Zhao finally spoke. She walked in front of everyone and said calmly and firmly, "Everyone has seen what kind of person I am in the village. How could I do such a thing? If I really hit someone, we will admit it. We would have asked you to apologize. But now you are biting back. We, the Zhao family, cannot let this account go."
Wu Xu looked at Zhao, and the last glimmer of hope in his heart was shattered like a bubble. He thought Zhao could distinguish right from wrong, but he was too naive and underestimated the complexity and fickleness of human nature.
Now that the face has been torn, there is no need to be polite anymore.
Wu Xu stepped forward, his tone as cold as ice: "Show your sincerity first, then discuss whether to hit someone or not. How credible are the words of a person who has lost his credibility? You are arguing here, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that you are just trying to extort some money. I'm saying this today, don't even think about getting a penny from us. If you are not satisfied, you can go to the government to appeal. The court will make its own judgment on right and wrong, whether you are in the wrong or we are at fault. If you try to resort to violence, the people of Wujiazhuang will never back down."
Wu Xu's words were powerful and every word was sonorous. They not only demonstrated his unyielding will, but also drew a clear bottom line for this storm.
Wu Xu's decisive statement was like a thunderbolt in a clear sky, shocking everyone in the Zhao family so much that they stood there in a daze for a moment. They looked at each other, with helplessness and panic in their eyes.
In this remote village, numbers and noisy quarrels are often the only way to solve problems, but today, facing the Wu family's unquestionable determination, such a strategy seems to have lost its former effectiveness.
The tacit communication between the Zhao brothers seemed to be blocked by an invisible wall, leaving only confusion and helplessness in each other's eyes.
Ran He's voice was soft but clear, like the drizzle of early spring, moistening everything silently, but with a force that could not be ignored: "The tranquility of Wujiazhuang does not welcome the disturbance of the Zhao family. Please leave immediately and do not escalate the conflict."
Her tone was calm, yet it contained an inviolable dignity.
Zhao Er's wife seemed to have found an opportunity to fight back. Her tone was sharp, mixed with impatience and unwillingness: "This place is not your private property, but the public area of the village. How can an outsider householder drive us native villagers away?"
Her eyes flickered, as if trying to find resonance among the crowd.
However, at this moment, a steady and powerful voice penetrated the crowd, like an ancient bell in the mountains, shocking everyone: "Just based on the land under your feet, every inch belongs to my Wu family."
These words seemed to come out of nowhere, causing everyone present to turn their heads and look for the source of the sound.
The crowd parted automatically, making way for a path, and a slender figure slowly walked forward. It was Wu Xu. He walked steadily to the three Zhao brothers, his figure as tall as a pine tree, his eyes calm and deep: "Where you are standing now, up to the hundred steps behind you, all belong to the Wu family's territory."
Wu Xu did not make any threatening moves, but the three Zhao brothers couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts. Their feet moved backwards uncontrollably, as if they wanted to escape from the feeling of oppression, while also trying to distance themselves from this intimidating man.
The villagers around couldn't help but look back. If what Wu Xu said was true, then the entire river bank and even the places beyond actually belonged to the Wu family's territory. This undoubtedly caused ripples in their hearts, and their astonishment was beyond words.
"How can you lie! If this is your territory, why didn't you expand the boundaries when you built it?"
The man from the third branch of the Zhao family struggled to raise questions, with a hint of unconfidence in his voice.
"Good question."
Wu Xu smiled lightly, his eyes as deep as the abyss, "Because from here to the mountains you can see, as well as the mountains on the left and right sides, all belong to my Wu family."
As soon as these words were spoken, the villagers' breathing became rapid, their eyes moved back and forth between the nearby mountains and the grand home in front of them, and they swallowed dryly unconsciously in their throats. It was obvious that they were shocked by this sudden news.
"You, you, are those things you said really yours?"
The people from the third branch of the Zhao family made an excuse with a lack of confidence.
"Why don't we ask the village chief?"
Wu Xu raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of playfulness in his words.
As soon as he said this, most of the villagers seemed to have started to believe it. After all, such a big lie could not be concealed for long. Who would be stupid enough to make up such a lie that could be easily exposed?
"Well, it's getting late, please leave as soon as possible."
As soon as the word "get out" came out, the people of the third branch of the Zhao family seemed to be hit in the chest by an invisible heavy punch, and the fear on their faces became more and more obvious. As the elder brother, Zhao Dalang barely straightened his back and said calmly: "Master Wu, even if this place was purchased by you, it is still within the boundaries of our village. You, an outsider, have no right to order us to get out. You should be the ones to get out. Our village does not allow you to exist."
Wu Xu raised his lips to a cold smile, and said icily: "If they don't want to leave, someone will make them leave."
As soon as he finished speaking, another sound came from behind, interrupting the second daughter-in-law of the Zhao family's questioning.
"I have this ability."
Everyone looked back again and saw a middle-aged man in official uniform leading a group of officers walking quickly towards them. The powerful words came from the mouth of County Magistrate Zhang who was walking in the front.
When Magistrate Zhang heard that someone dared to interfere with the affairs of the Prince of Chu's palace, how could he miss such an opportunity to curry favor with them? He made a prompt decision, summoned all the officials in the county government, and rushed to the scene.
It just so happened that the eldest son of the Zhao family was speaking wildly and looked shameless.
