Jiang Wan was discussing with Aunt Xie the opening of restaurants in the town after the New Year when she was suddenly interrupted by a harsh voice and frowned unhappily.

She was familiar with this voice. Wasn't it her second aunt Liu?

It's New Year's Day, why is she coming here to bring bad luck?

Before Jiang Wan could think about it, Liu, along with the eldest son of the Liu family and the Li family, broke into the courtyard gate aggressively.

“Jiang Wan, you have such a cruel heart!”

As soon as Liu entered the room, she began to scold without explanation: "Yan'er is your second cousin after all, how could you have the heart to frame her for the crime of kidnapping? If you still have a conscience, go to the county government and find a way to rescue Yan'er and the others!"

The eldest son of the Liu family did not recognize Jiang Wan, but the purpose of their family's visit was to find someone to get Liu Ershun out of prison. They would identify whoever the Liu family wanted to settle accounts with.

Boss Liu followed up, "Right! You look like a decent girl, but how can you be so vicious? Did my Ershun provoke you or offend you? I tell you, not only must you get our Ershun out, but you must also compensate me! Ershun must have been wronged after being in jail for so long!"

Otherwise, how can we say like father, like son?

Liu Ershun is an unreasonable scoundrel, and his father Liu Lao Da is even worse than him. He didn't even know for sure whether it was Jiang Wan who killed Liu Ershun, and he didn't find out the truth, but he started thinking about compensation.

The Li family members were not as bad as Boss Liu, but they also cheered him on. "My little Si is well-known in the village for being honest. How could he kidnap others? It must be you, a little girl, who colluded with the people in the county government and deliberately framed him!"

The three families came in a hurry, which naturally attracted many villagers who were strolling in the village.

They crowded around the door of Fourth Aunt Xie's house, each stretching their heads to look inside to see what was going on.

Some of them who couldn't find a place to sit simply lay on the wall and looked at the Liu family members with interest.

Fourth Aunt Xie was the first to rush out of the main hall, and she stood with her hands on her hips and yelled at Liu: "Liu, are you shameless? It's New Year's Day, and you have to come to my house to make trouble. I think you are not doing it well! What do you mean my niece-in-law framed your daughter? It's obviously her own evil heart that did the sinister thing of kidnapping and selling children, and you dare to turn around and put the blame on my niece-in-law. I think you are really shameless!"

As she spoke, she pouted at Boss Liu again, saying with disgust, "I don't even bother to scold that scoundrel Liu Ershun. Last time, he teamed up with Jiang Yan'er to intercept my niece's wife. I haven't come to settle the score with you yet, but you dare to come to my house to question my niece's wife and even have the nerve to ask for money. It's really disgusting!"

She scolded the Li family again, "Why are you joining in the fun? Who in the nearby villages doesn't know what kind of person Li Xiaosi is? You say my niece-in-law wronged him? Ridiculous! Even if they wronged a dog on the side of the road, they wouldn't wrongly accuse your Li Xiaosi!"

Fourth Aunt Xie was really good at talking. Her retorts stunned the three members of the Liu family.

The villagers who were watching cheered for her.

"What Fourth Aunt Xie said makes sense. Liu Ershun and Li Xiaosi are notorious scoundrels in the nearby villages. They behave themselves all the time. How can Boss Liu and the Li family have the nerve to praise them?"

"Isn't it? And Jiang Yan'er from the Jiang family, she brought Old Lady Jiang and the others to blackmail Jiang Wan last time, but she was slapped in the face. Now she dares to come to our house again. She must have not been beaten enough."

"What crime did Jiang Yan'er and the others commit? Kidnapping? My goodness, this is a serious crime. Why did they choose to be prostitutes when there were so many other things they could do? This time, they will have to spend decades in prison if they don't die."

"..."

The villagers had been well treated by Jiang Wan before.

Now almost every household in the village has a kang for heating in winter, which helps them survive the cold winter more smoothly than before.

So most of them spoke on Jiang Wan's behalf.

There were also a few sisters-in-law who were jealous of Jiang Wan's change of character and her increasingly wealthy family. They couldn't stand her violent and unruly temper and whispered, "But Jiang Yan'er is Jiang Wan's cousin. They grew up together. Even if there is no love between them, she shouldn't have sent her cousin to jail with her own hands, right?"

"That's right, you can't write two Jiang characters with one stroke. After Jiang Wan got married, she forgot about the Jiang family. Not only was she unfilial to Old Lady Jiang, she was also rude to Boss Jiang and his family. Such a cold-hearted person is really scary..."

"She married Xie Lan, who is a notorious evil star in the village. She must have learned this from Xie Lan. Why did she have to learn Xie Lan's cold face when there are so many other things to learn? From now on, we have to avoid Jiang Wan when we see her, otherwise, if we say something that makes her unhappy, she might take action..."

"It's really scary. Jiang Wan even dared to hit her grandmother. If she didn't like any of us, wouldn't she just beat her up?"

"What you said is really possible..."

Seven or eight young wives pointed at Jiang Wan and whispered to each other, afraid that Jiang Wan couldn't hear them, and their voices were very loud.

After hearing this, Xie Jing and the others in the yard stared at them with their eyes wide open, as if they were about to pounce on them and fight with them.

The young wives were frightened by the glare and restrained themselves a little, but they were still unconvinced and spoke ill of Jiang Wan.

At this time, Xie Lan walked out of the house. He walked to Jiang Wan, reached out and pressed the back of her hand, signaling her not to worry and just leave it to him.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Wan said, "I'll take care of these minions."

After saying that, she smiled at Xie Lan with a curved lip, an expression that indicated that it was a trivial matter.

Xie Lan nodded, his eyes following her without moving an inch.

Jiang Wan took two steps forward. Liu knew how powerful she was, so she subconsciously took two steps back.

Fourth Aunt Xie grabbed Jiang Wan's arm and said angrily, "Niece-in-law, stop barking with these wild dogs, let me do it!"

Jiang Wan said, "Aunt Si, don't worry, I won't argue with them, I'll just say a few words."

Aunt Xie felt relieved after hearing this, and then she let go of her hand and let her go forward.

Jiang Wan looked at Liu with a half-smile and said, "Who told you that I framed Jiang Yan'er for going to jail?"

Liu couldn't hide the truth, so she betrayed Jiang Lian'er immediately, "Lian'er said it! She said that you have always been resentful of Yan'er, so you did such a despicable thing! Jiang Wan, Yan'er hasn't bothered you since the last time, how could you bear to send her to jail? After all, you are sisters, for the sake of your second uncle, let her go this time and get her out?"

Liu was already lacking confidence when speaking at this time.

There's nothing I can do. Who made Fourth Aunt Xie so aggressive and sharp-tongued?

Besides, all the villagers were speaking for Jiang Wan, and Jiang Wan had Xie Lan by his side, so how could the Liu family afford to offend him?

So her arrogance immediately disappeared, and her tone became negotiating.

Jiang Wan sneered upon hearing this and said sarcastically, "For the sake of Second Uncle? Is Second Uncle's face so valuable?"

Liu's face turned blue with anger. Jiang Wan continued, "Why did Second Aunt ask me whether I had falsely accused Jiang Yan'er of trafficking? Jiang Yan'er had already confessed in prison that it was Jiang Lian'er who instructed her to traffic my child."
