Wielding a butcher's knife, a seven-year-old wicked girl supports her family and abuses her wic
Chapter 105 Denying it to the bitter end, turning the tables on everyone
"What's the panic?!"
Inside the room, Chen Yue'e, her face cold and her voice sharp but weak, shouted loudly.
She immediately gripped the kitchen knife in her hand and leaned out of the house.
Yang Chengren trembled and followed behind with a face full of fear.
Looking at Yang Cong'an and his group in the courtyard, Chen Yue'e's fierce expression suddenly froze, and then she saw that all-too-familiar face, Lin Tiangang.
"Chen, do you know your crime?!"
Taking advantage of Chen Yue'e's panicked expression, Yang Cong'an suddenly shouted, causing her to instinctively shiver.
He almost lost his grip on the kitchen knife.
"What...what wrong have I done?"
Even with Lin Tiangang present, Chen Yue'e remained defiant, gritting her teeth and shouting.
Yang Cong'an was clearly taken aback; even in this situation, she still dared to lie through her teeth, and he was instantly enraged.
"You colluded with charlatans to spread rumors and ruin your niece's reputation, attempting to use public opinion to drive her out of Yangjia Village. This act has angered both heaven and man, and you still don't know your crime?!"
Having said that, he abruptly flicked his sleeve, turned around, cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Wang Yan, and then said:
"Lord Wang, we urge you to witness this in person."
After Wang Yan nodded, Yang Cong'an waved in Lin Tiangang's direction again, and didn't forget to glance at the villagers at the gate of the courtyard behind him.
"Most of the people here today have probably been misled by your lies. Tell me now, what was the truth of that day?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Tiangang stepped forward with a bitter expression and sighed:
"To be honest, I only set up this trap because I received a reward of five hundred coins from her."
"Who would have thought that this woman would harm her own niece? If I had known, I would never have the conscience to do such a thing!"
"Well, besides..."
He couldn't continue speaking after that.
Just now, in the front yard of the Qi family, after learning about the heroic deeds Yang Xiaoman had accomplished by going up the bandit mountain alone, he was filled with regret.
If he had known that the person he had framed was such a person, he wouldn't have dared to take on this suicidal job, let alone five hundred coins, or even five taels of silver!
Five hundred coins?!
Upon hearing this, an uproar erupted at the entrance of the courtyard.
Everyone looked astonished, their faces filled with disbelief.
They stared blankly at Yang Xiaoman and Li Xiuyun in the courtyard, unable to believe it for a long time... that the old sage they had trusted so much that day was actually a charlatan!
The so-called "dragon turning over" and "black stone sealing" are all nonsense, just a scam!
"Nonsense!"
Chen Yue'e was so angry that her face turned ashen, and she suddenly raised the kitchen knife in her hand.
Lin Tiangang was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he instinctively hid behind Wang Yan.
Upon seeing this, Wang Yan's expression suddenly turned cold, and his right hand was already on the sword at his waist.
"You audacious Chen, put down the cleaver and confess your crime at once, lest you bring trouble upon yourself!"
Chen Yue'e's pupils contracted sharply. How could she possibly be a match for the yamen runners?
So, he slowly put down the kitchen knife in his hand.
Upon seeing this scene, Yang Chengren felt dizzy and saw stars.
"It's over, it's really all over now!"
His unusual reaction was naturally noticed by Yang Cong'an, who sneered repeatedly and said:
"Yang Chengren, your wife has already confessed her guilt, are you still going to resist stubbornly?"
"Speak! That day when you went up Black Wind Mountain, did you inform the bandits and help them kidnap your own niece, Yang Xiaoning?!"
Helping bandits kidnap his own niece?!
Upon hearing this, the villagers of Yangjia Village who were gathered at the gate of the courtyard gasped in shock.
They had finally come to terms with the fact that Lin Tiangang was a fraud, but upon hearing such explosive remarks, they gained a completely new understanding of the evil deeds of the couple in front of them.
"I...I've never been to Black Wind Mountain!"
Yang Chengren's lips trembled, and he waved his hands repeatedly in denial.
"snort!"
Yang Cong'an snorted coldly, knowing he was stubborn and too lazy to say more. He waved to the coachman in the short jacket and said coldly:
"Lin Dashan, step forward and identify him. Is this the employer who sent you to Black Wind Mountain?"
Upon hearing the name "Lin Dashan," Yang Chengren's face turned deathly pale.
The next second, he saw a very familiar figure cautiously peeking out from behind Wang, the yamen runner.
Before he even reached Yang Cong'an, Lin Dashan abruptly stopped, pointed at his face, and shouted excitedly:
"Yes, yes, yes... that's him!"
"Over the years, he was the only one who dared to go to the forbidden area of Black Wind Mountain. How could I forget him?"
"If it weren't for the high price, I wouldn't have taken this risk even if you killed me. I'll remember his face even if he turns to ashes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the villagers who had gathered at the gate of the courtyard erupted in uproar.
"Isn't Yang Sanlang usually the most cowardly? Why would he dare to go to Black Wind Mountain alone? This doesn't make sense!"
"What's unreasonable about it? This man is just like his wicked wife, utterly wicked. What wouldn't he do to eat the blood of his third brother's extinct family?"
"That's right! His usual cowardice is probably just an act; who knows how ruthless he might be behind the scenes!"
……
Hearing the whispers behind him, Yang Cong'an's eyes flashed, and he looked coldly at Lin Dashan, saying in a low voice:
"Now that the evidence is right here, what else do you have to say?!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Chengren's face turned pale, and he stammered:
"I...I...I..."
Seeing that he couldn't utter a single word for a long time, Chen Yue'e pursed her lips and said sternly:
"Lord Village Head, if I remember correctly, you and Xiaoman were the ones who went to town to find these two, right?"
"With only witnesses and no physical evidence, how can we be convicted? Perhaps those two have already been bribed by Xiaoman with a large sum of money!"
After saying that, she looked coldly at Wang Yan and lowered her voice, saying:
"Lord Wang, as a yamen runner, you must not be misled by these scoundrels and easily believe witnesses."
"My son Chengren may not be very capable, but he knows some officials in your county. If he has any evidence, that would be helpful..."
"If there is no evidence and only one person's opinion, it's not so easy to convict us!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Yan and Yang Cong'an's expressions changed drastically.
The former was even more unpredictable, and he could sense the subtle threat in the other party's words!
Clearly, this rural couple in front of us is not as simple as they seem.
The fact that they dared to threaten him like that clearly meant that the person behind these two was no less powerful than him!
"How dare you!"
Yang Cong'an suddenly roared, his face turning red.
"If we can't trust witnesses, are we supposed to trust you?"
"I see you're all stubborn and won't give up until you see the truth. Do you really want to stand in court and be beaten with sticks before you'll admit it?!"
Chen Yue'e scoffed and shook her head, about to say something, when Yang Xiaoman walked out with a cold face.
"Uncle Village Head, there's no need for that trouble."
"I have a better way."
