Since He Hua refused to speak, it was only right to use some necessary means. Jiang Chuyue stood up and was about to leave. He Hua was still hesitating, but it was obvious that she had really made up her mind and refused to give in.

Thinking that the family was already unable to make ends meet, He Hua had to wait until tomorrow to go to the main house to get food. After struggling for a while, she finally made a decision, rushed forward, and grabbed Jiang Chuyue's arm.

"I'll tell you everything, but Chu Yue, don't stop giving us food."

When people are in difficult situations, they don't care about their temper or face. He Hua never thought that life would be so difficult.

Now, although they have Jiang Chuyue's support, they can still get by if they save on food every month. However, seeing that everyone in Wanshan Village is living a better and better life, He Hua naturally wants more.

But now that she knew Jiang Chuyue was going to deprive them of their minimum living conditions, He Hua could no longer maintain her dignity as an elder.

"Second Aunt, I didn't want to make things difficult for you. As long as you cooperate with me, your monthly allowance will not be reduced." Jiang Chuyue used both soft and hard tactics. As for what He Hua was thinking and whether she appreciated the favor or not, Jiang Chuyue didn't bother to care.

"What do you want to know? I will tell you everything I know."

Seeing Jiang Chuyue retreating but still refusing to sit down, He Hua felt uneasy, fearing that Jiang Chuyue would turn around and leave again.

"This tea is what I left behind. Don't despise it. I have kept it very well." He even served the tea that he had been reluctant to drink.

Jiang Chuyue looked at He Hua's forced flattery, stepped back, and sat down. "I came here today just to ask if my second uncle is still alive?"

He Hua's hand trembled as she poured the tea, and the scalding hot tea flowed over the back of her hand, causing blisters.

Jiang Chuyue looked at her coldly. After He Hua hurriedly rinsed herself with cold water several times, she sat back in front of Jiang Chuyue with an uneasy look on her face. She forced herself to endure the burning pain on the back of her hand and poured a cup of tea for Jiang Chuyue.

Jiang Chuyue stared at the tea for a long time, finally picked it up and took a sip.

He Hua finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this. "Your second uncle is indeed still alive, but I only found out about it a while ago. I didn't mean to hide it from you, but you know that your second uncle is the head of the family."

He didn't even mention how he and Widow He tried to trick Jiang Chuyue, but they didn't expect to succeed.

"So the last time Second Aunt brought Xiaoman to see me, it was also the idea of ​​your good uncle, me?" Jiang Chuyue's eagle-like eyes looked into He Hua's timid eyes.

He Hua swallowed unconsciously and her voice became weaker. "It was your second uncle's idea. I just followed his instructions and tried to extort some money from you, but I couldn't..."

He Hua didn't know what to say next. They had plotted against Jiang Chuyue before, and now it was inevitable that she felt a little upset when she told her about it in front of Jiang Chuyue.

"Did he tell me why he wanted you to plot against me? Did he really come here just to extort money?" Jiang Chuyue didn't think this matter was so simple. If it was for money, he could have used other means instead of trying to throw dirty water on Jiang Chuyue.

He Hua immediately became anxious, "He really said that, that is, in order to shut us up and for a good reputation, you will definitely give us money, and then my child and I will have a better life, and we won't have to live under your will."

Jiang Chuyue stared at He Hua for a long time, but didn't say whether she believed it or not. She turned to ask other questions, "Is my second uncle having an affair with the widow He in the village?"

Her words were so straightforward that even He Hua, who already knew the reason, turned pale when she heard them.

It would be fine if her own husband didn't like her, but he actually had an affair with a widow in the village. Once this matter got out, who knows how many people would secretly point at He Hua and laugh at and scold her behind her back.

Seeing that He Hua's face was getting worse and worse, Jiang Chuyue's voice became softer. Although He Hua's character was not good, it was really pitiful and sad that she was deceived by the person next to her.

"Do you know when they got in touch?" But some things had to be asked. Only by asking could Jiang Chuyue find out whether Xiao Li was the real second uncle and what was wrong with this person.

He Hua's face was frozen, and she turned her head away stiffly, shaking her head. "I don't know. I don't even know when he came back. He suddenly came back with that bitch one night. After he came back, he asked me to use that method to extort some money from him, and even asked me to listen to that bitch."

She was clearly the principal wife, but she had fallen to the point of listening to Xiao Li's woman outside. He Hua felt humiliated, but it was true that Xiao Li had been good to her in the past.

It was so good that He Hua always felt that after Xiao Li figured it out, he would continue to live a good life with her.

"So, are the two of them still in contact now?" Jiang Chuyue continued to ask coldly.

He Hua turned even paler. She was silent for a long time before she said in a muffled voice, "I don't know. I went to see her two days ago, but she refused to tell me anything."

Jiang Chuyue had an idea in her mind. He Hua didn't know much, so it was obviously impossible to get any useful information from her.

"You must not let other people know that I came to see you. Otherwise, it will be a question whether my second uncle will believe you after he comes back." Jiang Chuyue stood up and was about to leave when she suddenly remembered something and reminded him.

He Hua also understood that Xiao Li really disliked Jiang Chuyue. If he knew that she had told Jiang Chuyue everything, she would definitely have a hard time.

If not for Jiang Chuyue, then for herself, He Hua would keep this secret.

However, Jiang Chuyue has been in a lukewarm mood since returning from the second room. Xiao Yihao, Mo Jingchun and the other two, who had nothing to do, took the initiative to cook and made quite a few dishes. When they served the dishes to the table, they saw Jiang Chuyue sitting in the yard. No one knew what she was thinking about and she was distracted.

After Mo Jingchun glanced at Xiao Yihao, he understood and took Liu Wu out for a walk, leaving the space to Jiang Chuyue and Xiao Yihao.

"What are you thinking about?" Xiao Yihao sat next to Jiang Chuyue.

"I'm thinking about my second uncle's matter. What's going on? Don't you find it strange?" Jiang Chuyue noticed Xiao Yihao coming over. When he sat down, she moved aside to make a seat for him.

"This matter is indeed strange, but he is too cautious. It may not be easy to find any useful clues." Xiao Yihao had heard Mo Jingchun mention this matter a long time ago.
