After four years of living alone after marrying far away, he went back to his parents' home and

Lan Yujuan's suspicion that there was something wrong with the tea instantly angered the other party.

"What did you say?"

"Lan Yujuan, we've had such a long-standing relationship, and we even raised such a lovely daughter together! How can you doubt me?"

Liu Zhiyuan stared intently at her and questioned her loudly.

"Even if I work away from home for long periods for the sake of this family, and because of loneliness I strayed in my relationships and went astray, you shouldn't question my character!"

"Ask yourself honestly, in all these years of knowing you, have I ever hurt you?"

"Who exactly is instigating you? Now, I sincerely apologize to you and kindly offer you a cup of hot tea, and this is how you think of me?"

Lan Yujuan rolled her eyes at the other person, turned around and continued walking out, retorting without any politeness:

"If you want to act, then act for yourself. We don't have time to appreciate it!"

Liu Zhiyuan tried everything, from gentle persuasion to force, but found she was unmoved and finally broke up with her!

"Fine, you can leave! All of you, get out of here now!"

"I'd like to see today how you few people, driving one car, will manage to leave Xiahe Village after offending the Liu family!"

As he spoke, Liu Zhiyuan finally turned his head, his gaze coldly fixed on Chen Mo beside him, his voice as icy and piercing as a knife.

"During the first month of the lunar calendar, you used the excuse of fishing at my fishpond to steal my wife away. I haven't settled that score with you yet, have I?"

"Did you two just happen to run into each other that day, or have you been hooking up for a long time? If you're a man, give me a straight answer today!"

"Back in southern Hunan, that was your territory. I was an outsider, powerless and helpless, and couldn't do anything to you!"

"But this is Xiahe Village, this is our Liu family's territory! Debts must be repaid!"

Chen Mo didn't take these words to heart, but Lan Yujuan, who was standing next to him, began to hesitate.

She knew that as long as Chen Mo was by her side, everything would be alright today.

With just one phone call from Chen Mo, the people from the neighboring Li Family Village would immediately gather and rush over to help.

But she didn't want Chen Mo to make a big fuss over her own affairs and incur so many favors.

She immediately made up her mind, turned around, and calmly said:

"That night, I left with the child by myself; it had nothing to do with him."

After speaking, she turned her head and glanced at the cups of freshly brewed tea on the table in the hall, and calmly said:

"So, if I finish this cup of tea today, we'll be even, and I can leave, right?"

Liu Zhiyuan clenched his fists tightly, his eyes flickering slightly. "Yes, that's for sure."

"I, Liu Zhiyuan, always keep my word!"

"Moreover, this is not ordinary tea, but a local specialty tea that I brought back from Africa. It has a unique flavor and is very rare."

"I wouldn't even brew this tea for an average person who wanted to drink it!"

As the group was talking at the gate, Liu Meiling, the daughter-in-law of their neighbor, suddenly came over, cracking sunflower seeds.

Liu Meiling dressed glamorously and boldly, with big wavy hair, and her neck, ears, and hands were covered with glittering gold jewelry.

Liu Meiling's gaze swept boldly over Chen Mo while she smiled meaningfully at Liu Zhiyuan.

"Brother Zhiyuan, what kind of tea did you just mention? A local specialty you specially brought back from Africa?"

"Wow, this is such a wonderful thing! I've never tasted anything like it before!"

"Perfect timing! I just finished eating a handful of sunflower seeds, and my throat is practically parched. I'm really thirsty!"

"Yujuan doesn't seem thirsty. How about this, instead of wasting it, I'll taste it for you!"

Before Liu Zhiyuan could react, Liu Meiling scurried into the living room in her high heels.

She casually picked up a cup of hot tea from the tray and gulped it down.

"Hey, don't move!"

"Was this tea brewed for you? How dare you drink it?"

Liu Zhiyuan panicked and rushed into the hall to try to stop him.

Unfortunately, Liu Meiling was indeed quite thirsty, and she drank water very quickly.

In addition, the tea had been left on the table to cool for half a day after it was brewed, so it was still a little warm, but no longer hot.

After finishing one cup, Liu Meiling still felt thirsty. After putting down the cup, she turned around and picked up two more cups. Ignoring Liu Zhiyuan's attempts to stop her, she slipped out of the hall.

"Hey, Zhiyuan, don't be so stingy!"

"You know, I've never been abroad before. I'm just curious what it tastes like!"

"Perfect timing, my mother-in-law and sister-in-law are home too, I'll take two cups back and let them have a taste."

"Anyway, you brought back more tea than just this small pinch, right?"

"At worst, you can just make two more cups, don't be stingy!"

Liu Meiling picked up the remaining two cups of "tea," avoided Liu Zhiyuan, and strode towards her home.

"Liu Meiling, stop right there!" Liu Zhiyuan panicked and chased after her to grab her.

Originally, Liu Meiling was just curious about what kind of new and exciting thing it was.

Visiting a neighbor's house for a cup of tea in the village is just a matter of boiling an extra kettle of water, and no one will mind.

But Liu Zhiyuan's reaction was too much, which directly aroused her competitive spirit. The more she was told not to drink, the more she wanted to drink!

After her wrist was grabbed, Liu Meiling not only didn't let go, but instead shouted at the top of her lungs with a grin:

"Mom, Mom! Come out quickly!"

"Zhiyuan brought back some good stuff from Africa, you and your little sister should come out and try some!"

Liu Zhiyuan tried to stop her from taking it home, but she yelled and summoned her mother-in-law and sister-in-law over.

"Hey, what's this good stuff? Let us try some!"

When it comes to taking advantage of others, the old lady next door is always incredibly fast.

As soon as Liu Meiling finished speaking, her mother-in-law came out of the house, followed by her sister-in-law, who also looked on with curiosity.

Seeing this, Lan Yujuan knew that Liu Zhiyuan would definitely not be able to get away for the time being.

So he quietly tugged at Chen Mo, and the family of three prepared to leave quietly, no longer lingering there.

The three of them walked out, while Liu Meiling's mother-in-law and sister-in-law, with smiles on their faces, went straight to the ground in front of Liu Zhiyuan's house.

"Mom, have a taste!" Liu Meiling pushed past Liu Zhiyuan and brought two cups of tea to her mother-in-law and sister-in-law.

"I heard it clearly just now. This tea was specially brought back from Africa by Zhiyuan; it's a high-quality imported product!"
