Chapter 102 The truth comes out
Lu Beiting narrowed his eyes, parted his thin lips slightly, and spoke in a cold, emotionless voice: "What does Lu Weifeng's matter have to do with me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, it was as if a layer of frost had been placed over the surrounding air.

The words Hao Dazhuang was about to say were suddenly pulled back by an invisible hand, and he swallowed them all.

His Adam's apple bobbed up and down, his expression shifting constantly. Suddenly, the scene of Lu Beiting's wedding flashed through his mind, and not a single member of Lu Weifeng's family of three was present.

So, have they really had a complete falling out?
Hao Dazhuang felt a chill run down his spine and panic in his heart; he didn't know what to do with his hands and feet.

Over the years, in this small area, everyone who sees him greets him with a smile, fawning over and flattering him.

Who would have thought he would act so rashly today? At this moment, regret overwhelms him like a surging tide.

He kept blaming himself in his heart, wishing he hadn't been so impulsive.

If they are evicted from the family compound, finding a place to live there will be a major problem.

Lu Beiting sat steadily beside Xia Zhi, naturally taking her hand and gently stroking it, silently comforting her.

Xia Zhi's tense body gradually relaxed after feeling the familiar and reassuring presence beside her.

She rested her head on Lu Beiting's broad shoulder.

She looked up and secretly glanced at Lu Beiting's profile. Marrying him didn't seem so bad after all.

Li Jianguo sat not far away, his brows slightly furrowed, his gaze fixed on the object in his hand.

After a long while, he sighed heavily and carefully put the things into his bag.

He looked up and saw the two people, each absorbed in their own emotions.

Given their current emotional instability, let's wait until things are completely resolved before making any further decisions.

Half an hour passed quietly, and then a noisy cacophony of curses suddenly broke in.

"Has Hao Liping lost her mind?"
"If you don't prepare some pig medicine in advance to prevent the pigs from dying, how can you falsely accuse someone?" An aunt shouted, her face full of anger and her voice filled with indignation.

"Exactly! They even hit someone! That's outrageous! They act without thinking. Xia Xia has never even been to our area, how could they drug her?" Another auntie chimed in, hands on her hips, filled with righteous indignation.

"She's bullying a young girl behind our backs, she's shameless! If she's so tough, come at us! Let's give her a piece of our minds!" Another man's face turned bright red, his eyes burning with anger.

"I'm so angry! Xia is such a good girl, and she's been framed like this."

Xia is a doctor. She kindly reminded us and even gave us medicine. We can't be ungrateful.

Her pig died; ultimately, it was because she didn't take care of it.

"That's utter nonsense. Xia didn't even touch the pig, yet you're saying she deliberately caused the pig to get sick."

From the crowd, Fan Yulian raised her voice and said loudly, "I remember Xia went to the city the day after she gave me the medicine. Isn't this obviously a case of framing someone?"

Five or six women walked briskly toward this side, cursing and swearing.

On the way here, Comrade Zhang Yi had already explained the whole story to them clearly.

None of them could have imagined that just because Xia kindly gave them a few packets of medicine, they would be framed like this.

Fan Yulian, who already had Xia Zhi's medicine, was now furious. Her face turned bright red with anger, and her chest heaved violently.

Xia gave her the medicine and thoughtfully reminded her that when she got back, she found the pig was acting strangely and quickly fed it the medicine.

Although one or two pigs died, without Xia's medicine, they might all have perished. How can you blame Xia for the pigs getting sick...?

Fan Yulian grew increasingly angry; she was the one who took the medicine, and Hao Liping was framing her like this.
Isn't that the same as saying she has a problem?

Why don't you say she made the pigs sick?

A group of people walked to the door, cursing and swearing. When they looked up and saw a group of soldiers standing guard, their mouths immediately shut, their faces full of awe and tension.

Zhang Yi led the group in, his posture upright, and loudly reported, "Reporting to the leader, the villagers have been brought here."

Li Jianguo stood up, a gentle smile appearing on his face, his eyes filled with concern and inquiry, and politely asked, "Ladies, what exactly is going on with this pig disease?"

No sooner had Li Jianguo finished speaking than Fan Yulian stepped forward like an arrow released from a bow, eagerly saying:

"It's like this, sir. The day before Xia was to go to the city, she noticed that the pigs at my stall were acting strangely, looking sickly, so she gave me some medicine."

Xia is a very generous girl; she gave me a lot of medicine. I thought that I wasn't the only pig farmer, so I shared some with the other pig farmers around me.

When I got back, my sick pigs looked increasingly worse, so I quickly gave them medicine, but two of them still died.

As soon as Fan Yulian finished speaking, a woman behind her suddenly widened her eyes, as if she had discovered something extraordinary, pointed at Hao Liping, and exclaimed:

"Oh, it's you! This morning you asked me if my pig was alright, and I said it was fine, and Xia gave me the medicine."

"You're not upset because you didn't get your medicine, or because your pig died, and you're just making this up, are you?"

Hao Liping was startled by the sudden accusation, her head drooping abruptly, her hands twisting the hem of her clothes as she feigned a tearful appearance.

“You can’t blame me entirely. Xia Zhi and I live in the same compound. She knew the pig was sick, so why didn’t she give me the medicine?”

Ultimately, my pig died; how could she possibly have nothing to do with it?

"Hey, girl, are you out of your mind?"

It's a favor if someone gives you medicine; it's their right not to.

"Look at you, stirring up trouble! It's a good thing I didn't give it to you, otherwise, even if the pig dies, it might bite back." An aunt pointed at Hao Liping angrily, her body trembling slightly.

Hao Liping bit her lower lip, her face turning pale and then red, and she was powerless to retaliate amidst the chorus of accusations from the crowd.

At this moment, Zhang Yi suggested, "Sir, Veterinarian Wang is here too. Let him take a look and he'll know what's going on."

Li Jianguo nodded in agreement and then arranged for someone to take Wang Kun to the pigsty to check.

Zhang Xiao, standing to the side, immediately understood that Hao Liping was deliberately fabricating a story.

She was filled with remorse, feeling as if a thousand needles were pricking her heart, and the pain in her body seemed to intensify.

She hated herself terribly for believing Hao Liping's words and letting things get so out of control.

Gu Yunshen stood to the side, his lips pressed into a straight line, his gaze fixed on Hao Liping, the disappointment in his eyes like a deep, unfathomable lake.

Only now did he realize that he had been misled by her all along, leading him to do such a wrong thing.

Not long after, Zhang Yi returned with Wang Kun.

Wang Kun walked into the room, his gaze slowly sweeping over everyone present. He cleared his throat and said, "The pig died of paratyphoid fever, not swine fever. The other two have also contracted the disease. To cure them, they need injections and medication."
