When the two turned back, Hu Feng pushed them away from Hu Changlin and Zhao Lan, and stand straight in front of Hu Changlin and Zhao Lan.

Seeing that Hu Feng and Bai Zhi came back, Hu Changlin and Zhao Lan both sighed with relief. If they were here, they would be fine.

“What about our family? When did our family covering things up? You better speak less nonsense.” Xu Laosan squinted his eyes to Bai Zhi.

Bai Zhi sneered: “You two just continue covering things up. But, I say, who in this village don’t know that you and Xu Laosi’s wife had a secret relations.h.i.+p. And Xu Laosi and your wife also have a secret relations.h.i.+p?

”

When Xu Laosi heard those words, his anger immediately blew up and he grabbed his third brother’s collar: “How dare you seduce my wife?”

Xu Laosan’s eyes turn red, he lifted his foot and kicked Xu Laosi’s leg: “You son of a b.i.t.c.h, you even dare to touch this old man’s wife?”

The two brothers fight in the road. The onlookers looked at two awkwardly. The Xu family was so chaotic, how would they not know?

Bai Zhi didn’t continue looking at Xu Laosan and Xu Laosi, who were entangling themselves together. Her cold eyes swept through the villagers, who were surrounding their house: “Why are you all standing here? What does our family owe you?”

Although she was young in age, her eyes looked very sharp. They usually heard her with a sweet and soft voice. But at this time, her voice sounds very cold like ice.

“Zhi’er, although your family doesn’t owe us a thing, at this moment, if you won’t sell us rice, isn’t that a bit too much?” When Old Zhao’s voice fell, the villagers also opened their mouth: “Yes, that’s right. We all live in the same village, how can you let your village folks suffer? This is simply unethical.”

Bai Zhi has long been used to people turning black into white.

Bai Zhi louder her voice and stared at Old Zhao coldly: “Zhou Bobo, your saying, our family not selling rice, is a bit too much? Excuse me, Zhou Bobo, which rice are we not selling from you people? Are they the disaster relief from the government?”

Everyone was silenced by her words. But then, Bai Zhi continued: “Your saying that I am letting my villager folks suffer. Then let me ask you, didn’t you come in here yesterday? How many rice did you buy? And didn’t you also buy rice the day before yesterday? How many rice did you also buy at that time? Are you eating those rice or using it somewhere else?”

The villagers’ face immediately showed an embarra.s.sed expression, but Old Zhao still opened his mouth: “Yes, we bought rice for a couple of days, our family didn’t eat much, but who’s family here doesn’t have relatives from other villages? We can’t just buy rice for our family and ignore our relatives, right? Because of that, there’s nothing much left in the house, so we came again to buy some. The town is very far, and it happened that your selling rice from here. We naturally choose to support your business. After all, we live in the same village. This is not only convenient for us but also convenient for you.”

Listening to this, Bai Zhi couldn’t help but laugh: “Zhao Bobo, you think I, Bai Zhi is a fool, right? You guys bought low-priced rice from me, but sell it to other villages at a high price. Do you think I don’t know that? I sold my rice at a low-price out of kindness, I didn’t earn a single copper coin from you. You know it very clearly inside your heart. So stop trying to suck up on me, to get yourself some benefits. You just go and leave.”
