The village chief got a headache from Lady Li and the others when he was at the Tian Residence. Luckily, Erlang had returned at this time. The village chief seemed to have caught on to something as he actually used that piece of bird's egg skin to ask Er Lang about the truth. This caused the Jiang Clan to be quite angered.

"You stinking brat, what are you talking about? How do you know what's inside the eggshell behind your second uncle's house? That thing isn't for you to eat." Run like a madman all day, look at your dirty body. Is that egg something you can get? Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and let me in. " As the Jiang family spoke, they dragged Erlang to the east wing.

Erlang'er was already acting stubborn. In front of so many people, he knew that he was not young at all. How could he let his mother hold him by the collar?

He immediately stretched his neck and pulled the Jiang Clan's arm away. He said with a red face: "Mother, what are you doing? "Today, I climbed up the tree to get the eggs. Otherwise, my body wouldn't be so dirty. This time, it's fourth brother who found that bird nest …"

The truth was about to be revealed, and when Madame Gao heard that Erlang, a heartless person, actually mentioned the name of Silang, she was immediately enraged.

"Hey, Erlang, you can't speak carelessly. Our family's Slow River doesn't have that much ability. This is clearly your craving, so it has nothing to do with our family's Slow River after you dug out the egg on the mountain." Gao Shi said.

"Forget it, auntie. When we were dividing the eggs today, Fourth Brother also divided two big ones. I didn't have the nerve to say anything about him." Jiro remained stubborn.

This matter was getting clearer and clearer. On the Li family's side, their expressions were so dark that water could drip out of them.

"Village head, fellow villagers, I think everyone should be clear about why our house is on fire now, right? Today, my mother and I went to the town to buy needle and thread, and safely went up the mountain to dig up wild vegetables. We weren't home, but someone actually lit the fire in our house. Even though they didn't do it on purpose, someone still has to take responsibility for it. " Tian Yuqiao said resolutely.

"That's right. This time, it was clearly done by the Tian Family's Erlang and the Si Lang. These two children are really bad. Why not light a fire at the back of their house?"

"Exactly, these two kids are already so old, yet they don't know that they're having a head fever at home, even going to the bottom of other people's houses to start a fire."

A few of the women started talking at once, making Erlang'er extremely angry. He hurriedly tried to explain, "It's not like that, we really didn't burn down Wulang's house on purpose. "It's because Si Lang was worried that the egg would be taken away by the milk and then left for Fourth Uncle and Aunt. That's why we had no choice but to do it in a place with no one else …"

Wang Heng said to Mrs. Li with a sullen face, "Now that the matter is made clear, it's the eldest brother and the other three's two children. Because of greed, they actually ordered the second brother's house. How do you think we should settle this?"

"Then how else can we solve it? The two of them were both children, so it was normal for them to be greedy. If it really was in terms of theory, they couldn't be blamed. If they had to blame someone, they had to blame that damned wind. If the wind didn't blow the sparks onto the thatched cottage, the house wouldn't have been set on fire, right? "

Madame Li clearly had a face that said she didn't want to admit her debt. This made everyone present extremely furious.

The Village Chief sneered and said to Lady Li, "The children may not have set the house on fire on purpose, but the rest of you, seeing that the house is on fire, didn't even try to save the fire at the first moment. How are you going to explain this?"

"Aiya, village chief, you can't just throw all these shit at my head. I was carrying a basin into the fire. Who said I took their things? Whoever sees it, stand up for me. I'm willing to confront her face to face. "

Madame Li spoke as her old eyes were still scattering amongst the crowd. She remembered that when she went in today, no one seemed to have seen her.

The villagers here normally wouldn't mind if there was a big commotion, but once they were asked to testify, no one was normally willing to cause trouble, so when Madame Li asked this question, no one stood up.

Suddenly, a soft voice came from the crowd, "Village Head Grandpa, when the Yu Tang Family was on fire today, I was just about to go to the latrine, and then I saw her, her, and someone else. They didn't put out the fire in the first place, when it wasn't very hot. "

"Yank, are you sure you saw it?" Widow Li nervously pulled at her son. After all, she did not want to cause any trouble.

The bolt nodded heavily and said, "Mother, I'm not seeing things wrong. The fire was not big in the beginning, but Tian's grandma said to let it burn. She also told the two aunts to go in and get the food, and I saw her carrying a large bundle of blue cloth herself. "

When Lady Wang heard this, she immediately broke down in tears, broke through the crowd, and walked to Lady Li's side.

"Mother, I feel that after my boss left in the past few years, I have treated our old Tian family fairly." How can you watch my house burn and think of robbing while it's on fire? This action of yours is truly chilling to the heart. "

Tian Yuqiao pulled née Wang away and said to the village head, "Grandpa village chief, all the food that my family got when we were separated, as well as the cloth that I bought for the money from the mountain in exchange for gathering herbs, have now been taken away with milk."

Wang Heng was so angry that his beard was about to jump, and he angrily said to Madame Li, "Oh wow, you're Mrs Li Tian. Your daughter-in-law's house is on fire, yet not only did you not help, you even went into her house to take things. "And your two good grandchildren, they could burn eggs and burn other people's houses. If I don't take it seriously, I'm afraid the village head will also have his spine poked."

"Aiya, village chief, I did not take anything from her house. The heavens truly do have eyes." Madame Li still held her head up in denial.

"Whether I took it or not, we just need to get someone to go in and search." Tian Yuqiao said with a cold face.

"Ha! You little ingrate! Who lent you the guts to come search my house?" Madame Li instantly began to act rashly.

The village chief did not care about Lady Li. He directly waved his hand and called his pillar wife and Widow Li into the house for a search. Tian Yuqiao also personally went over.

The three of them rummaged through the house of the Li Clan but didn't find any cloth. They only found a few bags of grains in the kitchen.

"These bags of grains are all the same, what right do you have to say that these bags of grains belong to your family?" Tian Guihua said angrily as she came out of the west room and stopped them.
