Cheng Tianhua certainly did not dare to go to the police station.
As long as it was resolved within the village, no matter how many people watched, it was still a family matter.
But once he went to the police station and it spread to others, he, the production team leader, would be finished!
Cheng Tianhua gritted his teeth in pain and backhanded Song Yulian.
With a slap, Song Yulian fell to the ground.
"Even now, you still don't regret it! What good does it do you to ruin Cheng You's reputation!"
Cheng Tao, unable to dwell on accusing Zhao Yunlin, rushed towards Song Yulian.
She stared at Cheng Tianhua in disbelief, her eyes splitting open.
She could not imagine that Cheng Tianhua, whom she had always thought doted on her, would show such a side today.
"Dad!"
Cheng Tianhua closed his eyes in pain, "You brought this upon yourselves!"
Cheng Tao stared blankly at him, then at the people around her.
The scorn and disgust in their eyes deeply pierced her.
Since when did her and Cheng You's positions swap?
Cheng You had become the one looking down from above, gazing at her from a high vantage point.
Sixth Aunt sneered, "Since you claim Cheng You had an affair with Qi Chengyan, then we'll call Qi Chengyan here for a confrontation!"
"No need to call him, I've brought him!"
The crowd parted, watching Uncle Li and Qi Chengyan walk over.
"Tianhua, you know very well where Chengyan went and whether he went up the mountain."
Cheng Tianhua was startled and trembled all over!
He suddenly remembered that he had arranged for two people from the educated youth point to go to the county town to pick up goods.
Although he hadn't named them, it was normal for Qi Chengyan to have gone.
Qi Chengyan glanced at Cheng You and saw her reddened eyes, his gaze deepening.
"I just returned from the county town. I don't know what happened yet."
Song Yulian was stunned. Impossible! She had seen him go up the mountain with her own eyes!
If Qi Chengyan had really gone to the county town, then there was only one possibility.
He and Cheng You had conspired against her!
Song Yulian's hatred surged to its peak. After living for so many years, she was actually tricked by these two juniors!
Cheng You said coldly, "Aunt Lian, do you have anything else to say now?"
Song Yulian gave a cold smile, "I have nothing to say. I admit defeat!"
Sixth Aunt was very disappointed. At first glance, she thought this woman was quite decent.
How long had she been pretending? She had already revealed her true colors.
"It seems you still don't know your mistake. You and Cheng Tao will go to the Women's Federation office for classes every day. With such character, the entire Cheng family will be ruined by you."
Cheng Tianhua looked at Sixth Aunt and pleaded, "Auntie, I will resolve this matter properly. I will educate them properly!"
If they were really sent to the Women's Federation office, their reputation would be gone!
Although their reputation was already ruined, the impact was still within controllable limits.
Sixth Aunt was about to insist, but Old Man Cheng suddenly appeared from somewhere and said, "Sixth sister-in-law, let's just forget it."
Cheng You looked over upon hearing the voice. Her grandparents lived with her third uncle.
Because the elders were extremely biased towards the third branch, Cheng Tianhua was not close to them.
Usually, besides providing them with living expenses, he had little contact with them.
For him to speak up now was already the limit.
Sixth Aunt then nodded, "Since fifth brother has spoken, I naturally have no reason to refuse. We won't send you to the Women's Federation this time, but if there's a next time, I will have Cheng Tianhua personally escort you to the police station to be locked up!"
Cheng You had no objections. At this moment, she only needed to play the role of the victim well.
Being too aggressive would be counterproductive.
As the matter concluded, Sixth Aunt said, "Everyone disperse! Cheng You, bring your younger brother to Sixth Grandma's house for dinner."
Cheng You nodded, "Okay, Sixth Grandma."
Taking Cheng Wenyu away was also to give Cheng Tianhua space to teach his wife and daughter a lesson.
Cheng You winked at Cheng Wenyu, signaling him to follow.
Everyone dispersed, the show was over.
Qi Chengyan glanced at Cheng You's retreating back and walked away.
"Hey, Brother Chengyan!" Sun Xiaowan followed him.
Cheng You, hearing the voice, turned her head and looked, her mouth drooping.
Sun Xiaowan was such a persistent nuisance!
Cheng Wenyu followed her gaze, "What are you looking at!"
Cheng You pouted, "Nothing."
She glanced at him, "I never expected you to be so capable of pretending."
These past few days, she had almost believed that Cheng Wenyu truly saw Song Yulian as his own mother.
Cheng Wenyu snorted, "In your eyes, I'm naturally worthless."
San Leng hooked his neck, "Brother, this isn't worthless. You're too smart! This brain, it's like mine!"
"Get lost, you're taking advantage of me!"
Cheng Wenyu struggled a few times.
But he didn't expect that his strength was not as great as San Leng's.
Especially when San Leng twisted his wrist, it was like he knew martial arts.
Cheng Wenyu was surprised, "You've practiced?"
"Nonsense, I'm going to be a soldier in the future!"
Sixth Aunt smiled and explained, "His second uncle was a soldier, and San Leng has been training with him since he was little."
Cheng Wenyu felt a little envious. When he got into fights, he only used brute force. No one had ever taught him anything.
Boys had a natural interest in this kind of thing. Because of this, he no longer rejected San Leng, and the two of them, with their arms around each other's shoulders, chatted animatedly.
Cheng You could not understand their interest at all.
Until San Leng said, "Brother Yan's skills are even better. I'll take you to find him next time."
"But isn't his leg injured?"
"That's true, but it doesn't affect him guiding us."
Cheng You looked at the condensed dew in her mind. The matter with Cheng Tao and Zhao Yunlin was resolved. Next, she had to focus on increasing the condensed dew.
If she and Qi Chengyan got together, she would definitely help him heal his leg.
After having dinner at Sixth Aunt's house, Cheng You and Cheng Wenyu took their leave.
Li Yulan was a bit worried and said, "Why don't you stay overnight? Wenyu and San Leng can share a room."
Cheng You smiled and declined, "Some things, we have to face sooner or later."
Sixth Aunt nodded in agreement, "That's true. Go ahead."
The siblings walked home under the moonlight. There were not many entertainment activities in the village. People basically ate dinner, took a bath, and then went to sleep.
There was nothing to do if they didn't sleep, as burning kerosene lamps was quite expensive.
"Cheng Wenyu, why did you help me?"
Cheng Wenyu grumbled in a low voice, "I'm not stupid."
He didn't have much of an impression of Jiang Qing, but Cheng You was his elder sister who had grown up with him. How could he harm Cheng You for a stepmother?
That would be ungrateful.
Moreover, what he overheard that day at the door had become a thorn in his heart.
He glanced at Cheng You, not daring to speak.
If Cheng You knew that Cheng Tao was his father's biological daughter, she would be very sad, wouldn't she? After all, she loved her mother very much.
Cheng Wenyu couldn't face this matter, but he didn't dare to reveal it.
Because he knew that if this matter was made public, Cheng Tianhua would be ruined.
That was his father, his biological father!
