Jiang Lin had already noticed Chen Hongying's current man when she arrived in the village.

Watching him leave, for some reason her eyelids twitched a few times faster. Looking at the direction the man turned, she wondered if she was overthinking it, but that direction was also towards her grandfather's place.

Jiang Linwan looked at the patient in front of her, apologetic smile on her lips: "Excuse me, ma'am, my stomach hurts a little, I need to go to the restroom."

"It's alright, Dr. Jiang, you can go ahead. Everyone needs to use the restroom sometimes, we can't stop people from going. We'll wait for you here," the old lady said with a smile.

"Do you know where the toilet is?" Dean Chen asked, pointing to the village's public toilet.

Jiang Linwan quickly ran towards the toilet, then turned sharply and chased after the direction where Butcher Zhang had disappeared.

On the path leading to the cowshed, Zhang the butcher looked around and, seeing no one, took out an axe from his waist lining. Jiang Linwan stared at the sharp axe, her eyes instantly turning bloodshot.

Thinking of what Sun Shuyao said that day, her father's leg was broken by an axe in his previous life.

That's right. Although Lu Chengyu knew where his grandfather and the others had gone to the countryside, he was unfamiliar with the place and the people there. How could he find someone to pressure his father and the others?

That's where Chen Hongying came in.

Then her husband was the murderer who indirectly killed her whole family. Looking at Zhang the Butcher's back, Jiang Linwan's eyes surged with endless hatred. Her fingers clenched tightly, and her gaze was fixed on Zhang the Butcher.

Sensing the intense gaze behind him, Butcher Zhang instinctively turned around. Their eyes met, and he was met with a pair of cold eyes, a gaze that seemed to contain intense hatred that flashed by in an instant.

"Who are you? You're not from our village, are you? What are you doing here?" Butcher Zhang asked warily, looking at the woman's familiar face, feeling that she looked somewhat familiar.

Suddenly, something popped into his head. He quickly pulled a photo out of his pocket and saw that the woman looked exactly like the one in the photo. A hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

It's true that everything came to us effortlessly.

"You must be Jiang Linwan, that old man's granddaughter! You really do look just as beautiful as in the photos." Butcher Zhang said, slowly approaching Jiang Linwan.

Jiang Linwan didn't dodge; she just stood there.

The butcher thought the girl was terrified, and he swung his axe with an even more sinister smile. He was already ugly, and with his strong physique, an ordinary girl would probably have been scared to tears long ago.

But Jiang Linwan felt only hatred, not a trace of fear. The dagger she had bought earlier was still lying in her space.

He broke his father's leg and caused the deaths of his own brother and mother. If Zhang the Butcher gets close, she will make him pay with his life.

Seeing this from behind the bushes not far away, Xiao Zhang was anxious to go out, but was stopped by the person next to him: "If you go out now, all your efforts will be in vain."

"Not only will we fail to convict Butcher Zhang, but we'll also alert him, making it harder to catch him again later," Deputy Battalion Commander Zhang earnestly advised.

"But if that person really hurts my sister-in-law, we're finished."

"Wait a moment!" Deputy Battalion Commander Zhang said.

As Butcher Zhang got closer and closer to Jiang Linwan, Xiao Zhang was so anxious that he was about to stand up.

Suddenly a female voice rang out: "Dr. Jiang!"

Zhang the butcher was stunned for a moment. In the instant he hesitated, Jiang Linwan took out a dagger from the air and stabbed it fiercely into his chest with one hand. With the other hand, she held a silver needle and quickly stabbed it into Zhang the butcher's hand that was holding the axe.

Zhang the butcher felt a sharp pain in his chest. Looking down, he saw bright red blood soaking through his clothes. Overwhelmed with shame and anger, he raised his axe and prepared to chop at Jiang Linwan.

But his hand suddenly lost its strength. In the brief moment he paused, Jiang Linwan quickly turned to the side and was about to stab Zhang the Butcher again.

"Sister-in-law, stop!" Xiao Zhang shouted, smashing the stone in his hand towards Jiang Linwan's wrist. It wasn't very hard, but it wasn't light either.

Jiang Linwan was in so much pain that her movements slowed down, and the dagger in her hand was snatched away by Deputy Battalion Commander Zhang.

Even without the dagger, Jiang Linwan's hatred remained undiminished. She kicked Zhang the butcher hard in the groin, causing him to wince in pain and clutch his groin.

Then Jiang Linwan kicked him in the butt again. Zhang the butcher didn't react. His butt was suddenly pushed forward, and he fell forward due to inertia.

"Sister-in-law, stop hitting him. Even if it's because he wanted to bully you, you've already beaten him up, so he didn't succeed," Deputy Battalion Commander Zhang advised from the side.

Jiang Linwan beat him even harder, shouting as she did so, "I'll teach you to be a pervert to me! I'm a military wife!"

"You shameless scoundrel, taking your hooliganism out on military families!"

"Comrades, don't talk nonsense! I didn't do anything indecent to her at all."

She wanted to kill me the moment she saw me. She must be holding a grudge against her sister-in-law for marrying me, and this woman is the offspring of a capitalist…”

Deputy Battalion Commander Zhang's eyes flickered slightly upon hearing this.

The commotion quickly attracted the attention of the villagers.

"Dr. Jiang, what are you doing here?" A young woman asked, a hint of confusion in her eyes when she saw Jiang Linwan and the others.

Upon seeing Zhang the butcher covered in blood, the woman couldn't help but cry out in horror, "Ah! Murder!"

Instantly, more people were drawn to the scene, and upon seeing it, they all looked on in horror: "Soldiers, what happened? Have criminals broken into the village?"

Zhang the Butcher, his face pale from blood loss, pointed at Jiang Linwan and roared, "This woman stabbed me..."

Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Linwan blinked, and a few tears rolled down her cheeks. With red eyes and a look of horror, she looked at Butcher Zhang: "I didn't mean to, he tried to assault me."

I was so scared that I stabbed him.

"You filthy bitch, stop spouting nonsense! It's just that you resent me for marrying..." Before he could finish speaking, the woman who had spoken first stepped forward, glanced at Jiang Linwan, then straightened her back and looked at the large man, saying:

"It was indeed Uncle Zhang who flirted with this girl first. I heard Uncle Zhang say with my own ears that she was really pretty," the girl with two braids said quickly.

Butcher Zhang glared at her angrily: "Mo girl, we're from the same village, how dare you help outsiders slander me?"

After Mo Wanwan finished speaking, her eyebrows and eyes lowered slightly, and a blush rose on her cheeks because she had lied.

Jiang Linwan recognized the girl as the one who had given her medicine on the ship that day. Although she was puzzled as to why the girl had helped her, she dared not hesitate and continued, "I was about to go back after using the restroom when this uncle dragged me here."

"You're talking nonsense, you capitalist parasite, let me go."

"Don't believe what they say, they're in cahoots..." Before Butcher Zhang could finish speaking, Village Chief Shi immediately said with a cold face, "It's one thing for you to harass the women in our village all the time."

"How dare you flirt with even Dr. Jiang! Soldiers, please arrest this menace immediately!"

No one doubted Jiang Linwan's words, after all, Dr. Jiang was really good-looking, and Teacher Mo could also testify, as Teacher Mo was the most honest and would never lie.

Butcher Zhang was notorious in the village for his lechery. He was a big, burly man who looked intimidating. Although his family had plenty of meat to eat, the women who were good-looking didn't even look at him.

He was ugly and looked down on other women, which led to him being nearly thirty and still unmarried. When he finally did marry, she was a divorcee, and it was rumored that he had obtained the marriage through dishonest means.
