She was robbed by the leader of the family and had three children.

Chapter 626 For My Wife's Sake

Huo Yisheng's eyes also swept over him, a flash of contempt in his eyes, and he said expressionlessly:

"Village Chief Xiang is the village chief of Batang'ao, managing over 4,000 people. If someone is sick, they must be treated without delay."

Xiang Jiarong's legs trembled and he could no longer stand. He immediately fell to his knees and kept saying, "I'm not sick, I'm not sick, Commander! I really am not sick!"

He had seen cruel and brutal people, but this was the first time he had encountered a ruthless superior like Huo Yisheng.

Originally, he thought that since it was now the New China, if the higher-ups wanted to teach them, they would definitely have to show sincerity!

It's not that he really doesn't understand the policies outside. He knows that there are many cases like the Eighteen Villages in the Wasteland across the country, and the authorities have always been very tolerant.

That's why he is so fearless, betting that these cadres who come to do business will not dare to do anything to him.

But I didn’t expect that the one who came would be such an evil spirit!

If he had known this, he wouldn't have resorted to such tricks!

Now when I think back on his tricks, it seems like he was mentally retarded and a clown!

In fact, if it wasn't Huo Yisheng who came, but Political Commissar Lin or anyone else, Xiang Jiarong's plan would have been more or less successful.

Because everyone is indeed not as reckless as Huo Yisheng, and everyone will be cautious and hesitate again and again.

Seeing that he was really scared and really obedient, Huo Yisheng asked, "Were those people sick?"

Xiang Jiarong kept shaking his head: "No, no, they are not sick!"

Huo Yisheng twisted his fingers and asked again, "Is anyone in the village sick?"

Xiang Jiarong immediately shook his head like a rattle: "No, no, nothing, everyone is in good health!"

Huo Yisheng sneered: "So, yesterday..."

Xiang Jiarong immediately confessed: "I was blinded by greed. It's my fault. I lied. I deliberately made everyone pretend to be sick..."

Huo Yisheng said coldly: "Reason!"

Xiang Jiarong's mind cleared up a bit at this point. "I'm just worried that after you take over Batangao, you'll fire me as the village chief."

It is better to say that they are blinded by power than to say that they refuse to be educated and do not want to obey the country's management!

After he finished speaking, the air around him became quiet.

Huo Yisheng said nothing, and it was unclear whether he believed what he said.

As time passed, Xiang Jiarong felt that the aura around him was getting colder and colder, and the pressure hanging over his head was getting heavier and heavier.

He raised his head tremblingly, wanting to see Huo Yisheng's reaction, but ended up meeting a pair of eyes as deep as a cold pond, which seemed to contain the flash of swords and knives. He was so scared that his whole body trembled and he immediately lowered his head. The last bit of luck he had was also shaken away.

Huo Yisheng then waved his finger at Zong Hui with an expressionless face, indicating that the next thing was up to her.

Zong Hui, still twirling the scalpel in his hand, walked up to Xiang Jiarong, squatted down, and placed the sharp knife against his cheek, asking:

"Who was it that sent me to Batangao thirteen years ago?"

She knew that Zhang Jinshu was the mastermind behind this, so she wanted to pull out all of Zhang Jinshu's minions.

Xiang Jiarong shuddered all over. Just as he was about to speak, Zong Hui pressed down on the surgical knife and reminded him:

"Think before you speak. I don't think you'd want to see the consequences of lying, right?"

Her expression was extremely crazy. Although she was saying very simple words, her eyes and tone were extremely crazy.

There is no doubt that if he says anything to fool her, he will be killed on the spot!

Xiang Jiarong was no fool. He understood Zong Hui's intention almost instantly. Was she seeking revenge?!

But this has nothing to do with him!

This time I really felt wronged, and quickly told him everything I knew:

"It has nothing to do with me! It's really none of my business! The person who sent you here is Shi Lao San from the town. If you have any grievances or grudges, go find him!"

Zong Hui: "Shi Lao San? I remember it."

Xiang Jiarong breathed a sigh of relief.

Zong Hui stabbed the sharp knife into his arm. It was a hot day and he was wearing few clothes, so blood immediately gushed out.

Her voice was icy: "Tell me everything you know! You're like an old ox, whipped to a halt. Sorry, I don't have a whip, but I have knives."

She pulled out the knife and gestured from the top of his head to the bottom of his feet: "I don't mind stabbing you from head to toe."

Xiang Jiarong covered his arm with one hand, finally realizing that she was really a lunatic, so he said without hesitation:

"Shi Laosan brought you here and gave us a hundred yuan. He told us to keep an eye on you and not let you leave Batangao."

"I see you're a woman, and you're pretty good-looking. There are many men in the village, but many of them can't find wives..."

"Besides, none of the girls in the village are as pretty as you. I thought it would be nice to inject some fresh blood into the village, so I agreed!"

Zong Hui listened patiently with the sharp knife in hand until he determined that he had really told everything he knew, and then he stopped.

Huo Yisheng released Xiang Jiarong and warned him:

"Starting today, two teachers will be here to teach you ideological and political lessons. Study hard. I hope you, as the village chief, can take the lead. Otherwise..."

He deliberately left his threatening words unfinished, leaving Xiang Jiarong with endless reverie.

No matter what other thoughts Xiang Jiarong had, at least at this moment, he didn't dare to confront Huo Yisheng openly.

After everyone in Batangao had left, Zong Hui looked at Huo Yisheng and made a request: "I hope Captain Huo can help me check on Shi Laosan."

Huo Yisheng: "For my wife's sake, yes."

The implication was that if Ye Shu had not promised her long ago, he would definitely not interfere in her affairs.

Zong Hui doesn't care either, she only cares about the result.

She wanted to ask about Zhang Jinshu's whereabouts again, but Huo Yisheng didn't give her the chance and turned away.

Zong Hui let out a breath and said, "Okay, it seems I have to ask Ye Shu."

Huo Yisheng was only kind and patient to Ye Shu.

Sure enough, in the evening, when the couple was alone together, Ye Shu had something to say to him again: "Where is Zhang Jinshu now? Haven't you found him yet?"

Huo Yisheng: "I found it, but the emperor is far away, and it will take a lot of effort to clean it up. Wait a while, until I bring her to the wasteland."

He held a small bunch of her hair in his hand. The ends of her hair were soft and were bent into various curves in his hands.

In Ye Shu's eyes, he felt that there was some different implication in his words.

Before she could say anything, her mouth was blocked by the man.

The man said vaguely: "Wife, I need your care now. Don't think about others, okay?"

The two of them had been together for so long that she was powerless to resist the slightest movement and could only let him do whatever he wanted.
