After hearing Xiyue's words, Qiaohua's face instantly became uglier, and her eyes were full of panic.
Although he did not marry anyone, he would have the woman come to his home every now and then.
The treehouse is such a big place, and the neighbors live nearby, so I can only go to the creek behind it in the middle of the night, but I was bumped into by Xiyue twice.
If people knew that she was so dissolute, shameless, and had no dignity at all, she would be really shameless.
"You, you, Xiyue, don't talk nonsense, you were obviously the one who hit people first.
You, you, you, what are you talking about here?" Qiaohua was a little flustered, so she stuttered a little.
"Qiaohua, it's true of you, you are an elder of this family after all, but you actually ruined your niece's reputation like this.
And if you are so sure that Xiyue is not wearing underwear, that means you know that Xiyue’s clothes were stolen last night?!
And even the people around us didn't know about this incident. Xiyue asked me to borrow needle and thread to change my clothes this morning.
So, can it also indirectly explain that the fact that Xiyue’s underwear was stolen has something to do with you?!”
"What, Bai Ye, are you talking nonsense? How did I know that her clothes were stolen?"
"You don't know, then you say she has no clothes? Xiyue's family just left the Xi family yesterday. Her father and mother went to the royal city to treat their injuries. If the two sisters hadn't brought back two herbs from the deep forest, they would have been starving at this time.
You used to be so harsh to the second room and his family, and everyone saw it.
She only wears close-fitting clothes. If you didn't know that her clothes were maliciously stolen, why would you come back here and humiliate her in front of so many people?
Qiaohua, there is a limit to bullying people! Yesterday, Xiyue made a blood oath and used her twenty years of life to prove her innocence.
Just one night, your daughter and Fangfang went out of the city with whips to block people's houses. Do you really think no one saw it?
You family really don't know what you think, and you treat others as fools?
You'd better speak clearly. If you have wronged Xiyue, apologize to them. Otherwise, we will go to the village chief and tell him what the crime of stealing is!
Will the village chief allow people like this to stay in the village?"
Bai Ye, the woman who lent Xiyue needle and thread today, said very rudely.
After she finished speaking, many people echoed: "That's right, Qiaohua, please tell me whether Bai Ye has wronged you, and whether you are deliberately ruining the reputation of Miss Xiyue."
"Yes. Everyone heard what you just said.
Also, if it was your daughter who started the trouble, according to the rules, Xiyue’s counterattack would be self-defense, not an active attack."
"It's just that I didn't expect this couple to be so immoral. Now I can see their true colors clearly. They used to pretend to be human beings."
"I don't think Xiyue can lie. Xirong must have been unconvinced by what happened yesterday and made trouble for others, and as a result he was beaten.
And Qiaohua has always loved her delicate girl very much. I don't know why she is such a treasure.
If you want to marry into the town and become a rich lady, you may not be able to follow the old saying: ‘The heart is as high as the sky, but life is as thin as paper.’”
"."
Everyone had different opinions and did not save any face for Qiaohua. Qiaohua was very frightened. She did not expect that in just one day, the reputation of their couple had become so bad.
"I can testify that it was Xi Rong who held a whip of bitter whip, Fang Fang and He Jiao, the youngest daughter of the He family, to stop Miss Xi Yue outside the city, trying to bully her with more, but she was beaten by Xi Yue in the end.
Return."
A very deep voice sounded, and a dark-skinned and scarred Baiyi came over from the other side of the village carrying a beast on his shoulders.
At this moment, Qiaohua really wanted to go home and beat her unlucky girl to death, imitating others who blocked the road to retaliate. As a result, she was beaten badly, and she caused so many troubles again.
After all, this is the law of survival in this world. If you take the initiative to provoke others, if they fight back and die, it will only be because of your incompetence.
As long as there is enough evidence to prove that it was self-defense, you do not need to bear any responsibility.
Because life is not easy for everyone. There are many resources in the Lightless Realm, but there are also many wild beasts.
Humans are still weaker than beasts, so their range of activities is smaller.
So it's not easy to force humans to survive.
So under such a system, if there is no force value or no regulations, the yamen will spend all day doing things that are trivial and trivial for you, so you don't have to do anything else!
"It's Baiyi."
"Bai Yi, Bai Yi is a responsible person. There is no more honest person than him in the village, so since he testified for Xi Yue, it must be right."
The villagers once again agreed.
Xiyue looked at Bai Yi and didn't know what to say.
Xiyue was not unfamiliar with the way Bai Yi looked at her, but she was a little concerned because she was no longer her original self.
She hopes that people who like her in the future will really like her for who she is now, not because of her original identity.
Bai Yi was not a talkative person. He placed the prey on the edge of the creek at the outlet of the spring pool and then began to process the prey.
After all, it's almost getting dark. The stream near the village is wide, but it's easy to encounter small beasts at night, so it's not as safe as inside the village.
In particular, ground rats are used to stealing prey, and since there are so many social animals, even if they take a few mouthfuls of such a large prey, nothing will be left.
At the end of the village, many plants are planted to protect against insects, snakes and animals, so relatively speaking, this is why everyone lives in the forest, with towering trees, but there are relatively few animals such as snakes and rats.
reason.
With Baiyi's testimony, Qiaohua was forced to apologize to Xiyue in the end.
Otherwise, if she really went to the Yamen, stealing would be a serious crime, and she had a guilty conscience after all.
"Xiyue, it's my uncle who has wronged you. I apologize to you on behalf of Ronger." Qiaohua was forced by the contempt of the villagers and wanted to save some face, so she said.
"I can't bear it!" Xiyue said coldly: "I just ask you to stay away from our family and stop looking for trouble. Your family is too lazy to live by eating my father's light stone.
But now that my father is going to treat his injury, there will definitely be no light stone left, so we don’t have time to argue with you, we have to continue to live our lives.
Forget it this time, I won't be so easy to talk to again.
Everyone has a bottom line, and the clay figurine still has three points of fire, so you should take care of yourself!"
Qiaohua's face turned red with anger, and she almost ran away in the end.
But for the fact that Xiyue's underwear was stolen, most people in the village blamed the Xi family's family.
It's just that the people don't sue the officials and don't hold them accountable.
However, this made many villagers very defensive. They looked at the Xi family like thieves, making the Xixin couple and the entire Xi family even more angry and embarrassed.
