Li Lu thought that the footsteps would be that of the villagers who came to ask Wen Xiu for ways to earn money, but he didn't know that the people who came were not those villagers, but their village's Li Zheng, Liu Da He, and Li Zheng's brother, Liu Er Xi.

Ever since Liu Da He had taken office, the villagers had always been in favor of him and always gave him a thumbs-up when they talked about him. Normally, if someone had something urgent or difficult, he or she would lead the way to settle it. Even Wen Xiu, who had been despised by the villagers, had been helped greatly by him all these years. However, after the rumors about him and Wenxiu spread, when people spoke of him again, they believed that he had his own selfish thoughts towards Wenxiu.

In fact, that was indeed the case.

Liu Erxi had seen the "herbal medicine" on Wen Xiu's back yesterday, but those weeds were not herbal medicine at all. Even if the grass was to be carried back to the house to feed the rabbits, the rabbits would not eat it. He did not believe the rumors in the village, so he went to tell Liu Da He. The two brothers went to the mountain to find the same weed, then took it to Old Man Sun to ask and confirm that it wasn't an herb.

When the villagers found out that Wen Xiu had changed money, they all went crazy and wanted to make a fortune. If this situation was not suppressed in time, the entire Xitang Village would be in chaos.

Therefore, after the two brothers came out from Old Sun's house, they called the villagers who had entered the mountain back. Then they walked down the small path to Wen Xiu's house.

Liu Da He and Liu Erxi had originally wanted to ask Wen Xiu to go out and stop the crazy villagers, but neither of them expected that they would see Li Lu and Wen Xiu dragging each other in broad daylight.

When Liu Erxi saw Wen Xiu still holding onto Li Lu's clothes, he frowned. In his heart, he felt even more disgusted with Wen Xiu. This kind of unscrupulous woman was still entangled with her second uncle, just what did her elder brother like about her?

The four of them looked at each other and were stunned for a moment!

However, Wen Xiu quickly regained her senses and ruthlessly kicked Li Lu to the ground. Li Lu was sprawled in front of Liu Da He and his brother.

Liu Da He's face was expressionless, but his eyes became colder. He stared fixedly at Li Lu like two sharp arrows that could shoot through Li Lu's head at any moment.

"Li Zheng, I... I was just... Wenxiu and I are innocent... You have to believe me, believe me... Yours... "I don't dare …"

Li Lu stuttered as he spoke, causing people to be unable to clearly hear what he said. However, his face was one of extreme terror, as if he was a kid who was in a hurry to explain something and couldn't get up even after lying on the ground for a while.

When Wen Xiu saw him like this, she lost all the momentum she had in insulting her earlier. Her good-looking brows slightly furrowed. Since when did Liu Da He's presence make people kneel down and kowtow? However, the scene before her eyes made her have no choice but to believe that Li Lu was indeed afraid of Liu Da He.

It was true that Liu Da He was right and proper, but he did not have the power to interfere with the villagers' affairs. It was true that a rascal like Li Lu was smiling mischievously as he begged for mercy.

Was there something between the two that she did not know?

Wenxiu threw away those thoughts in her mind and composed herself. It was good that she did not know. The more she knew, the more trouble she would cause. Liu Da He's appearance was not necessarily a bad thing, at least it could restrain Li Lu from acting rashly. Although she wasn't afraid of Li Lu acting recklessly at all.

"Li Zheng, Li Lu, he …"

Where was he?

When Wen Xiu returned to her senses and wanted to learn from Li Lu, Li Lu's figure was nowhere to be seen. With a raise of his eyes, Li Lu's figure had already run far away.

Although Wen Xiu was curious as to why Li Lu ran, she did not ask. If she did not ask, Liu Dahe would not have asked for it, and he would not have taken the initiative to explain. He took a glance at the stairs on the floor and then looked at Wenxiu, saying seriously, "Wenxiu, I came with Erxi to ask you something. Are you free right now?"

Wenxiu bent down to carry the stairs and raised her eyebrows. "Rizheng, it's going to rain soon. I have to busy myself with cleaning the rooftops. If there's no hurry, wait for me to finish my work before asking?"

With that, she knocked on the door and called the tree to open it.

When Liu Da He heard this, he regretted saying all the nonsense. He clearly saw her intentions, but he was still foolish enough to ask if she had time. He really wanted to give himself a slap.

"Erxi, you go!"

Hearing that, Liu Erxi let out an "ah" sound, his face was full of unwillingness, he turned his head to the side and said: "Big brother, my woman already knew, why didn't she peel my skin off? "I won't go."

"I will explain it to him from my sister-in-law. Right now, it's more important that we get serious." Liu Da He did not buy his trick. He reached out his hand to push him, then shouted towards the courtyard, "Wen Xiu, come out and talk to us. Let Erxi clean the rooftop for you."

Originally, Wenxiu didn't want to agree, but she knew that Liu Da He must have come for the matters of the day. She helplessly descended the stairs and asked Liu Erxi to help. Before cleaning the house, he had to go to the Fang family and bring back two bundles of grass.

Liu Erxi couldn't refuse Liu Dahe, so he went to the Fang family with a dark face. Soon, he picked up a handful of dry straw and quickly climbed up to the roof.

At this time, Wenxiu had already explained everything to Liu Da He.

"Righteous Bestowal, this is really the case. I only obtained an unexpected windfall. Maybe the heavens saw that I was poor and had gone mad, so I couldn't bear to starve all three of us to death!"

After saying that, she had a look of gratitude on her face.

Liu Da He suspiciously stared at Wen Xiu. He wanted to find something suspicious from her face, but what he saw was only her beautiful appearance. He could not help but turn his face away. After some time, he said, "I don't believe what you've said!"

You don't believe me?

Believe it or not!

When she looked up, Liu Da He said, "I also don't want to care if you got your money by chance, but you have to tell everyone that those weeds are not worth much." Otherwise, the entire village would be thinking of selling the weeds for silver. If they all went up the mountain, wouldn't that just be a mess? What's more, it's dangerous inside the mountain. What if something happens? "

This was something that Wenxiu had never thought about before.

However, she couldn't back down now. Was she really going to explain that she intentionally pulled the weeds out to deceive people? If that was the case, how would the silver explain it?

What a headache!

"Wenxiu, what are you thinking about? I've been talking about this for a long time, did you really listen to her? " Liu Da He's head also hurt. Why did Wenxiu become something that he did not recognize?

Wen Xiu came back to her senses and nodded slightly. However, she immediately shook her head. "Since you are worried about them running around in the forest and your prestige is acknowledged, I will trouble you to explain. "As for the matter of me getting the silver, I'll have to trouble you to make it up."

"I …"

Liu Da He was at a loss for words. Wen Xiu had actually kicked the ball to him. How was he going to explain this?

Wenxiu did not care about how Liu Da He would explain it. In any case, her lie did not lie to Liu Da He. In any case, he was here to uncover the truth, so he would be responsible for cleaning up the mess and settle this matter.
