General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming

42 Murderer

What? Did Fat Lass Su kill Wang Laizi?

When everyone heard this news, they were extremely shocked.

Although the Su family was domineering, they had never killed anyone. What was going on?

Su Cheng walked out of the house. “Wan! Don’t slander her! When did my daughter kill your son?”

Madam Wan pointed at Su Xiaoxiao. “I’m not talking nonsense! Your daughter killed him!”

Su Xiaoxiao walked out unhurriedly. “You said I killed him. Do you have evidence?”

Madam Wan was exceptionally agitated. “My son has no feud with anyone but you! Who else could it be?”

Su Cheng said impatiently, “When did my daughter become enemies with your son?”

Madam Wan pointed at Su Xiaoxiao and said angrily, “She kicked my son off the ox cart a few days ago!”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “Oh, yes, so what? Isn’t it too far-fetched to conclude that I’m the murderer based on this?”

Madam Wan was so excited that she panted heavily. “You said it yourself... that you don’t like my son!”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “I did say that.”

Madam Wan cried to everyone, “Everyone, listen! She admitted it! She doesn’t like my son and won’t even let my son sit on the ox cart!”

“I didn’t let your son take the ox cart because... ” Su Xiaoxiao paused.

“Because what? Tell me! You can’t say it! You don’t like my son, so you killed him! You’re so ruthless!”

Madam Wan cried until her voice was hoarse.

Everyone looked at Fatty Su differently. Just because no one died in the past didn’t mean that it would always be the case, right?

Moreover, their family was the most domineering in the entire village. Who else would be capable of killing him Fatty Su?

“She even killed someone. She’s really something!”

“Why is there such a disaster in our village?”

“Poor Wang Laizi.”

Wang Laizi was of a bad character and had bad habits. However, he was a living person after all. It was fine if he lost his life due to his own actions, but it was a little too much to be killed.

No one wanted to live in the same village as a murderer.

At this moment, another villager said, “Little Su’s family isn’t from our village, to begin with! They’re from Willow Village next door! In my opinion, apart from reporting this to the officials, we have to chase their family back to Willow Village!”

It would be best if they could get rid of these bullies!

The village chief arrived with Old Li.

The two of them listened and almost understood what was going on.

Old Li advised, “Everyone, calm down. Daya is not that kind of person! She won’t kill anyone!”

“Old Li! Why are you speaking up for Su Daya? Did she give you any benefits?”

“If she didn’t give him any benefits, why would he let his wife teach the Su family how to farm?”

“That’s right. The Li family and the Su family have been really close these few days!”

“Old Li, what benefits did she give you? This is human life! Don’t cover up for a murderer!”

When Old Li heard these words, he was furious. He pointed at those people and said, “I don’t know anything about murderers! I only know... if it weren’t for Daya that day, your New Year goods would have been snatched away by the hooligans in town!”

Old Li told them everything about Su Xiaoxiao fighting Zhang Dao.

Su Cheng said, “That’s right! The Su family offended Zhang Dao because of this matter. We even went to the medical center to fight with Zhang Dao! My hand was injured!”

Everyone looked at one another.

There were a lot of New Year goods that day. If that was really the case, they would owe Fatty Su a big favor.

Madam Wan gritted her teeth and said, “You’re in cahoots with her! Naturally, you’ll speak up for her! Other than the few of you, who else has seen that group of people in town? It’s all because of you!”

Everyone thought that it seemed to make sense.

Madam Wan continued, “What kind of person is Fatty Su? It’s already good enough that she didn’t extort money from the villagers. Would she help them? Old Li, you are dragging the entire village down with you just because you reaped a few benefits!”

Old Li was anxious. “I’m telling the truth! If I lied, let me... let me be struck by lightning and die a horrible death!”

With this oath, everyone fell silent.

Actually, they knew Old Li’s character very well. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been at ease letting Old Li buy New Year’s goods for them.

It was only because it happened suddenly and was related to Fatty Su that they had some doubts.

However, Old Li had made such a vicious oath...

Could it be that they had really wronged Fatty Su?

Madam Wan said angrily, “So, so what if she really helped you snatch back your things? It’s true that she has a grudge against my son! Old Li! You were there that day! It was your ox cart! Tell everyone yourself, did she kick my son down?”

“This...” Old Li could not deny it.

“Aunt Wan.”

Little Wu squeezed in from behind the villagers. She squeezed her sleeves and said with a pale face, “I was there that day. Daya kicked your son off the ox cart because... ”

Su Xiaoxiao interrupted her coldly. “Wu! Since when are you allowed to interfere in my matters!”

“Daya!” Little Wu looked at Su Xiaoxiao with red eyes. She understood that Su Daya did it on purpose. Su Daya stopped her from telling the truth because she was worried that her reputation would be damaged and she would be criticized in the future.

However, she could not watch Su Daya be slandered as a murderer. She did not believe that Su Daya was that kind of person.

Su Xiaoxiao walked up to Madam Wan and looked down at her in the cold wind and snow. “You know your son’s character. Many people wish they could beat him to death. Didn’t you often curse him and say that if you had known that he was so useless, you would have drowned him in the river... ”

Madam Wan berated, “I’m his mother! How can I kill my son?”

Su Xiaoxiao spread her hands. “Who knows?”

“You... ” Madam Wan fell back in anger!

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Madam Wan and said, “You keep saying that I’m the murderer. Then let me ask you, when did your son die? Who discovered him? What was the murder weapon? Who saw me kill him with their own eyes?”

Madam Wan said, “He... he was discovered by Madam Qi... that is, Chunya... at the back door of my house... his corpse is still warm!”

Su Xiaoxiao had been observing Madam Wan’s expression. Madam Wan wasn’t lying.

The village chief said, “Su Daya, where were you when it first snowed?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “I was on my way to the back mountain to pick up firewood.”

Li Zheng asked, “Did anyone testify for you?”

Su Xiaoxiao’s gaze passed the crowd and landed on Su Jinniang.

“Mother, let’s go back. There’s nothing to see,” Su Jinniang held Madam Fang’s arm and said.

“Wait!” Su Xiaoxiao said, staring at Su Jinniang. “Chief, I think I know who the murderer is.”
