Dongzi looked up at Wang Daniu’s son and quickly lowered his head. He repeatedly shook his head and said: “No!”

Jia Dazhuang said with a proud tone: “Now, you still have something to say? The facts are all in front of you.”

Bai Zhi sneered: “Of course, I still have something to say, I haven’t even started yet. Why are you so anxious to convict me?”

Jia Dazhuang wanted to scold Bai Zhi for two to three more sentences marry, but he suddenly felt two cold eyes staring at him. He couldn’t help but had goosebumps and swallowed his words.

Bai Zhi went in front of Wang Daniu and his son: “Wang Dage, if I remember correctly, your wife’s name is Yunzi, right?”

Wang Daniu didn’t know what she was trying to do, he looked at her suspiciously before he said: “Yes, my wife’s name is Yunzi, what about it?”

Bai Zhi took out a handkerchief in her sleeve and shook it in front of Wang Daniu and his son. The embroidered name was very eye-catching: “Do you recognize this handkerchief?”

When Wang Daniu’s son saw the handkerchief, his face drastically changed.

Wang Daniu naturally recognized his wife’s handkerchief, but he was curious why Bai Zhi had this thing: “That is my wife’s thing, how come it’s in your hands?”

Bai Zhi’s eyes fell on Wang Daniu’s son: “As I said, before I enter the woods, I saw your son running out of the woods. He was in a panic and fell in the road of peanut fields.”

When she finished, she shook her head again and again and continue: “I also found some red fruits beside the handkerchief. The size is bigger than the average red fruits. It tastes very good.”

When Wang Daniu’s son heard of this, he immediately raised his face and shouted: “That is my red fruit, you return them to me.”

When his words fell, Wang Daniu and Jia Dazhuang’s face drastically changed.

Bai Zhi smiled: “So, you have been to the woods, right?”

Wang Daniu’s son was about to open his mouth, but Wang Daniu covered his mouth with his hand: “Stop talking nonsense, he didn’t go to the woods. You shouldn’t accuse people just for a few pieces of red fruits.”

None of the people present was stupid, the truth was now finally clear. The people already understood what happened, especially the three men and one woman who were forcefully stopped by Jia Dazhuang to testify. They couldn’t lift their faces in shame, but it was too late now to leave. They could only harden their scalp and regretted things inside their hearts. They really shouldn’t have done this even if they can get a benefit just like what Jia Dazhuang promised.

Jia Dazhuang said: “Bai Zhi, you trick the child with the use of food, do you still have any shame?”

Bai Zhi coldly said: “That is exactly what I want to ask you. To swindle money from me, you beat your son like this and force him to lie again and again, do you still have shame?”

Jia Dazhuang was about to argue, but at this time, someone call from outside: “Is Dazhuang there?”

Jia Dazhuang’s impatiently responded: “I am in the back room, who is it?”

Footsteps sounded from the outside, these footsteps were actually from Lu Changqing and his son who lived on the east side of the village.

Lu Changqing was the younger brother of Lu Zhangchun. The two were quite similar. But because of the long years working under the sun, his face was darker than Doctor Lu, and he seemed older than him. When in fact, he was eight years younger than Doctor Lu.

Jia Dazhuang frowned, he and Lu Changqing had never been in contact with each other. Lu Changqing obviously has no reason to look for him. Even if they meet on the road at ordinary times, he never said hello to him.

“What are you doing here?” Jia Dazhuang asked politely.

Lu Changqing looked outside and waved his hand: “What are you waiting for? Come on in!”
