i Lan's ulterior motives and next moves were. Fang Jinxiu had a hunch that Hu Ai Lan bringing her children to the door was more than just wanting a place to eat and survive.This woman's scheming is de...Fang Jinxiu let out two snorts of laughter, “Is that so”
She pulled Dong’er away from her side, “Did Hu Ailan tell you before she left that the child was innocent and asked you to keep Dong’er”
Zong Bai was stunned, "Sister-in-law, how did you know Did you hear it outside just now"
Fan Jinshu said angrily, "I didn't hear it, but I guess what she wants to do."
"Let her go, did she say where she was going"
The two brothers were just about to shake their heads, then something crossed their minds and their expressions changed.
"Oh no, is Hu Ai-lan planning to move into the village" Zong Bai rushed out to see where she had gone.
Zong Yu must have sensed the change, and immediately said, "I'll go find Uncle Wang."
Fang Jinshui pulled him back.
"What use is it for you to go find Uncle Wang now."
"Before, we could casually throw Chunlan away because she was brought back by us in the first place. Plus, that girl acted recklessly and angered everyone, so no one in the village questioned us. Instead, they felt relieved."
But Hu Ailan's situation was completely different from Chunlan's. She had always belonged to the village of Ye, and everyone knew that both her parents and relatives had passed away. People only felt sympathy for her, not prejudice.
"Don't you remember how you were forced to agree to keep her at home back then, even almost marrying her"
It's not because Hu Ailan is weak, and people are used to sympathizing with the weak. If they drove Hu Ailan out of the village right now, Wang Village Head probably wouldn't agree either.
They had no reason at all not to let Hu Ai Lan live in the village, but deep down they knew that if she moved in, their lives would be far from peaceful.
Zhong Yu furrowed her brows tightly, and Zong Bai rushed back again.
"Oh no, sister-in-law, she really went into the village. Let's hurry and stop her!"
Fang Jinshi called to Zong Bo, "Let her go."
The two brothers turned to her in surprise.
"What are you going to do by stopping him Can you bring people back or force her out of the village"
Zong Bai was taken aback, as if nothing worked.
Fang Jinshi wore a nonchalant expression. “She went to live in the village simply to let everyone know she's back, and that she brought a child with her.”
"Let her go through the trouble, she won't get her way."
She just wants to use the villagers' mouths to pressure her, just like she pressured her mother-in-law to take her in back then, forcing her to admit their relationship with Dong'er so that she could stay openly and legitimately.
Once she stayed home as a woman of virtue, the next step would probably be to find a way to drive out her legitimate wife and then take her place.
Her biggest ace in the hole was Dong’er, but Hu AiLan wouldn’t have expected that Dong’er’s mouth would open so easily for her, spilling all of her secrets.
This contest was already decided from the start, it wasn't worth her wasting time on irrelevant people. She should spend more time thinking about how to smoothly carry out her grand plan of buying a mountain.
So many days have passed, there's been no movement from Village Chief Wang's side. Just waiting like this isn't productive either.
Zong Bai didn't understand why his sister-in-law was so calm and collected. This Hu Ai Lan clearly came to steal his older brother away, how could she not be nervous at all
This kid practically wrote his thoughts on his face, his eyes darting back and forth between her and Zongyu.
Fang Jinshu beckoned her two brothers to enter first, then called Mu and Yulian into the room.
Mu Shi was on edge. She had even driven away Hu Ailan. Would the daughter-in-law still be angry
"Jinxiu, you, you called us all over here. Is there something you want to say" she asked cautiously.
Not only Mu Shi thought this way, but others were also looking at her with nervous faces, fearing that she would speak the next second and say she wanted to leave the Mu family.
Fang Jinshi smiled helplessly and pulled Dong'er to the front, "Mother, you don't have to look at me like that. I won't get angry and want to divorce Zongyu over such a small matter."
"I called you all here because there's something important I need to tell you, and I don't want you all to be misled by Hu Ai-lan."
Mu immediately breathed a sigh of relief. As long as her daughter-in-law didn't leave, everything else could be worked out.
"What's up"
Fang Jinshi lowered her head and glanced at Dong'er, "Boy, are you going to tell me yourself or shall I tell for you"ngli suddenly smiled and raised her eyebrows."How miserably did you say that widow died"“It's definitely a hundred times worse than ending up in our hands.”"Haha, what is she doing When we find a powe...
