Back to the 70s: My Wife is Both Fierce and Crazy

Chapter 43 The Old Woman Who Wanted to Frame Someone

Bai Jing didn't do anything underhanded. She went into the kitchen, took a bowl, filled it with water, and then grabbed a bottle of gentian violet from the kitchen cabinet before leaving the kitchen with the water.

The two men following her didn't say a word, just stared intently at her, as if afraid that something might be wrong with her.

Bai Jing didn't take those two people seriously at all.

After they came out, the two returned to their leader and shook their heads at him.

The leader glanced at Bai Jing and saw her feeding water and applying medicine to the unconscious woman, but didn't say anything more.

Instead, they turned their attention to the old woman from the Bai family.

"Is what you're saying true? If we don't find anything, I won't be able to explain myself when I get back. Aunt Zhang, don't try to play me for a fool." The leader's voice was tinged with anger.

Old Lady Bai glanced at him, then quickly looked away.

The man in front of her was her best friend's son. She never expected her best friend to be so successful, becoming the wife of a leader.

His children are even more successful; not only do they all have jobs, but they all work in good places.

It would be a lie to say I'm not envious.

If it weren't for her special status back then, she would probably still be living in the city, instead of fleeing to this remote mountain village.

In the end, it was because I was too outstanding that I was schemed against; otherwise, things wouldn't have turned out this way.

"Don't worry, I wouldn't lie to you. Would Aunt Zhang harm you?" Granny Bai's real name is Zhang Zixue. She was originally a young lady from a wealthy family, but due to a family tragedy, she eventually gave herself to a bandit leader.

Given her cunning, she eventually became the third-in-command of the mountain stronghold, which shows that she was not a kind-hearted person.

The fact that she was able to hide by Old Man Bai's side for so many years shows that she is a person who can bend and stretch.

Of course, her identity was also cleared up.

"Be careful, don't shout, it won't be good for you if someone hears you." Xiao Hua knew that his mother had a close relationship with the person in front of him, otherwise he wouldn't have listened to her and come here.

While the financial gain is one aspect, his mother's face is another.

Xiao Hua knew his mother was mysterious, but his father told him not to ask, so naturally he wouldn't.

But she wasn't so kind to her mother's friends.

It was precisely because he didn't know the identity of his mother's friend that he was so fearless. If he had known, he probably wouldn't have dared to speak to Granny Bai like that.

Old Lady Bai raised her eyelids, glanced at Xiao Hua whose eyes were filled with disgust, and cursed inwardly.

However, he didn't say anything more.

"Don't worry, that thing is definitely at their house. Even if they don't have it, I'll make sure they do later." Granny Bai had made two preparations.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Hua glanced at his wife a few more times, thinking to himself that his mother should be more wary of such a person in the future, otherwise, if she plots against his family, his family might suffer as well.

"It's good that you know what's going on, otherwise I wouldn't be able to explain to the brothers if I made a wasted trip," Xiao Hua said calmly.

But the meaning behind his words was also very clear. Granny Bai withdrew her gaze, her heart hardening. She would definitely make this family of despicable people pay the price.

When the brigade leader and the village chief arrived, Xiao Hua's patience ran out. "You are the brigade leader and the village chief. You've come at the right time. Let's not waste any more time. You two accompany my men inside to search."

After being told by Granny Bai that they were the village chief and the brigade leader, he immediately called out to them.

The brigade leader and village chief had already inquired about the purpose of these people's visit on their way here, and they were very displeased with the Bai family.

Apart from that one time, no one in their village has ever caused such a commotion. They should handle their own affairs. Why bring these troublemakers into the village?

Now, after being thoroughly reprimanded by Xiao Hua, the two were naturally displeased.

"Alright, then let's not waste any more time. We're busy in the fields; the autumn harvest is coming soon, and we can't let the work in the fields be delayed." The village chief didn't give these people a friendly look at all. He really didn't want to deal with these people unless absolutely necessary.

When no one was watching, Granny Bai kept giving the brigade leader, who had a long face, meaningful glances.

Only after the captain nodded did she turn her gaze away and hide behind her husband.

It has to be said that she is really smart; who would have thought that the brigade leader would be related to her?

Bai Jing naturally saw the two of them as well, and upon hearing Xiao Hua's words, she also came over.

"Village Chief, Brigade Leader, thank you for your help this time. You know my family best," Bai Jing said respectfully as she stepped forward.

The village chief, of course, knew about the Bai family's affairs. He nodded slightly and said, "Don't worry, as long as your family hasn't violated any national laws or done anything to betray the country, no one can wrong you."

The brigade leader also spoke up, saying, "The village chief is right. As long as you are innocent, no one can bully the people of our village."

Despite their apparent support for Bai Jing's family, their true thoughts remain unknown.

Bai Jing was too hasty in putting her mind at ease.

"Then I'll have to trouble the village chief and the brigade leader."

After saying that, Bai Jing stepped aside and let the two of them follow the person into the house.

Everything was fine until Granny Bai suddenly shouted, which aroused Bai Jing's suspicion.

"Don't forget her cellar is right in the kitchen."

Bai Jing looked towards the sound and saw that Granny Bai was winking at the group of people who were going in. Bai Jing immediately turned around and saw the captain who had just turned away. She was startled and had some doubts in her heart.

"System, can you help me monitor these people who went in?" she hurriedly asked the system.

Xiao Jin didn't disappoint her either. "Of course! As long as you pay, there's nothing the system can't do."

"I'll spend it."

[Ding, the host has spent 1,000 yuan to monitor a group of people who entered the host's home.] Xiao Jin's voice was filled with excitement. The host has spent money, starting to spend thousands.

[Host, the perspective has been activated. Please observe carefully.]

As soon as Xiao Jin finished speaking, Bai Jing pictured her own kitchen in her mind.

Those people were probably frightened by Bai Jing's previous outburst, and they became much more careful when moving things.

The village chief and the brigade leader stood there watching them.

She thought she had guessed wrong, but when the cellar door opened and the captain asked to go down first, Bai Jing knew that the captain and Granny Bai were indeed having an affair.

Those people weren't familiar with the area either, so they were happy to have someone go down ahead of them to scout the way.

So he stepped aside to let the captain go down first.

In Bai Jing's mind, she clearly saw the captain take a cloth bag from his pocket after going down and throw it into the darkness. His body was still within the sight of the people above, and he didn't move an inch.

"There's nothing down there. Do you want to come down?" the captain asked, looking up at the men above him.

Those people didn't want to go down, after all, the captain had already gone down, and if there really was something, he wouldn't help cover it up. The crime of harboring a criminal was not something a captain could bear.

"Get down, and don't forget what the captain said." Just as the man at the front was about to speak, a man behind him spoke up.

Having no other choice, the group had to go down one by one.

One more chapter will be later. I went to a birthday party today and got back late.
