Chapter 638 This wasn’t the end.
Su Wan stepped out from behind her husbands back and started clapping as she swept a gaze at the three villagers who took lead to 'teach' them how they need to live in the village with peace. " Very well, you three are absolutely right, I mean I hope the next time anyone sets fire on your fields, you will be just as big hearted as you are being now and don't chase the matter to the end."Her words caused a stir in the heart of the three people and the rest of the villagers before the elder of the village spoke, " Are you threatening us?"
" Oh no, not at all," said Su Wan as she spread her hands innocently. "It is you, you guys are the ones who are being a bit too much. You are, after all the ones who are sending out the message that it's okay to burn each other fields if you feel jealous over the growth of the other person's crops because even if you do something like that it's fine. As long as you cry a little, plead a little and act pitiful, the village is going to forgive you so why not? It's a lawless village where the laws of the Yamen don't mean a thing, so just do whatever you want, what's the big deal?"
Immediately the villagers whose minds were diverted on the wrong track returned to the right one, that's right if they let Xin Shi leave today then wouldn't it mean they will have to let everyone who does something wrong go? If they try to punish that person, they will just relay this incident to them saying if this was right then why was what they did wrong?
But Su Wan wasn't done, she straightened her spine and pointed at a woman in the crowd. " You, Guihua, you seemed to have some feud with Xin Shi right? What if you piss her off and then she set your fields on fire? Will you be able to let her go?"
" Of course——"
Before Guihua could reply, Xin Shi shrieked from the side. " What nonsense? I am saying that I made a mistake but that doesn't mean that I will do it again why don't you believe me huh? I won't do it again, I was just angry——"
" Angry at what?" snapped Su Wan as she turned to look at Xin Shi. " Everyone here knows that you and I don't have any feud with each other but you still set my fields on fire why? Because my interference caused your plans to ruin your brothers in law fields to fail right? What you wanted to do was wrong from the start but you still blamed me like I was the one who did something wrong, for the failure of your one criminal atrocity, you came up with another criminal plan, is it my fault? Tell me? Where exactly is my fault here?"
Xin Shi'a mouth was sewed at once because there was nothing she could say to defend herself.
When she saw that Xin Shi wasn't speaking, Su Wan turned to the crowd and said, " You see? She burned an entire plot of my field just because I interfered with her plans earlier and didn't leave the Feng brother's fields to rot, if so you don't need to do much and she will come after your fields because she got angry. Now it's up to you if you want to shelter such a criminal in the village or do you want to do the right thing and nip the bud before it blooms or else you all will be the ones who will suffer, and I am not even exaggerating in the least."
" You! Su Wan what will you get after ruining my family! How can a woman be as heartless as you?" shouted Feng Zihang but Su Wan turned a deaf ear to him, these words she has listened to a lot of times when she used to work in the night market. Even she lost count of how many businesses she shut up because they messed with her and in the end, those business owners made a ruckus just like Feng Zihang.
" Enough!" Village head Luo raised his voice as he put a stop to another row, he glared at Feng Zihang and felt his mindset get refreshed again, he thought that Feng Zihang was a little petty man but he was in the end he realised that the man was a little too sharp then he expected him to. " Your wife didn't make a mistake, Feng Zihang what she did is a crime, of course, Yamen will be called! You are lucky that no one from the Lin family was harmed in this ordeal or else this matter would have been too hard to control!"
After saying this, the Village head Luo turned to look at the Lin family and sighed, " You four, if you want to call the Yamen you can do so, no one will stop you given I am the one who is giving you permission." As he said this, he turned to glare at the villagers who spoke out of turn.
" I will go," said Lin Chen as he raised his hand. " I am fast on my feet, I will go and call them" than before anyone could say anything he rushed out of the village without looking behind.
Feng Zihang who understood that the matter was out of his control clenched his fists and glared at Su Wan from the corner he was standing in, this woman! Does she think that she will be able to escape just like that? This was just the start! If anything by calling the Yamen, she only slammed her feet on the axe because from the start he wanted this to happen anyway!
An eerie smile etched on his face but Feng Zihang suppressed it and then turned to play the role of an angry and upset husband as he shouted and screamed. Waiting for the right time to do as he was ordered.
