1970s: A hot-tempered wife who accompanied a soldier to the military compound and made a fortune.

Chapter 460 Anyone who doesn't confess honestly will bear the consequences.

Liu Shuqin was terrified. She glanced at Liu Jiandong and said in a barely audible voice, "It was Liu Jiandong who contacted me, so I asked Liu Cunyi for help."

Liu Quanwen's eyes were now filled with rage: "Speak louder, and explain yourself clearly to me."

He has lost his position as accountant. If it weren't for his father's old connections, he would probably have been implicated in the previous incident. He had planned to lie low for a few years and wait for things to calm down before thinking of another way.

Unexpectedly, this good-for-nothing daughter has caused this trouble again. Seeing that things are getting out of hand, in order to protect themselves, they have to take a step back. That's right, take a step back and directly and decisively expose the person behind the scenes and shift the blame.

That's why he deliberately spoke so loudly; only in this way could he minimize the impact on his daughter.

As expected of a couple, Peng Ailan quickly understood her husband's intentions: "Why are you still hiding it? Hurry up and explain yourself. Not only are you being used, but you've also harmed yourself. My poor daughter."

Liu Shuqin trembled upon hearing her husband's words. These words struck a chord with her; she had been completely taken advantage of by Liu Jiandong and had ended up losing everything.

Thinking that her life had been ruined, her eyes were filled with hatred. She pushed away Peng Ailan, who was protecting her, and without caring about her disheveled clothes, she rushed towards Liu Jiandong: "You wicked devil, I'll kill you."

Peng Ailan reached out to stop her but couldn't. Thinking of everything her daughter had suffered, she thought it would be good for her to vent. She gave Liu Quanwen a wink.

Liu Quanwen immediately understood, and took a few steps forward, seemingly trying to stop his daughter, but actually pulling on Liu Jiandong.

Liu Shuqin's near-mad output soon left Liu Jiandong's face covered in bloody welts. His previously healthy leg was also injured in the chaos, and he cried out in pain, "Secretary, Village Chief, please make this madman stop! Ah, help! He's going to kill me!"

Because of what Ge Xiulan did before, no one in the village wants to associate with her now. If it weren't for Bai Dalaba, who was always looking for trouble, running to the Liu family to call for help, Ge Xiulan wouldn't even know what had happened.

She did hear the commotion, but because of what she had done before, she was scolded wherever she went, so she rarely went near people now. It was only when Bai Dalaba ran over to call for help that she found out.

She heard her son's screams from afar, pushed through the crowd and saw him covered in blood. She roared, "Liu Quanwen, I'll fight you to the death!"

Liu Quanwen was so focused on helping his daughter that he didn't have time to be on guard and was caught red-handed by Ge Xiulan.

Ge Xiulan used all her strength, ramming directly into his waist and knocking him flat on his back. Then, without a care, she straddled Liu Quanwen, took off one of her shoes, and slapped it at Liu Quanwen's face.

Peng Ailan was no longer willing to stand up for her daughter. Instead, she grabbed Ge Xiulan's hair and tried to pull her down.

She had barely exerted any force when Liu Shangang, who had arrived from behind, grabbed her by the back of her collar and hair, and pulled her aside.

The village secretary, looking at the villagers watching the commotion, roared, "Tear them apart!"

There's not much entertainment these days. Although we wanted to see a group fight, the Party Secretary had already spoken, so everyone had to step forward and pull the people apart.

Seeing that the person who had been pulled away was still struggling and trying to fight back, the Party Secretary roared again: "If you keep making trouble, the village will not care anymore, and we will send the police to handle it."

Upon hearing the word "public security," everyone quieted down.

The old Party Secretary stared sharply at the individuals involved: "I will ask them one by one, and you will each speak one by one. Anyone who does not confess honestly will bear the consequences. You should think carefully about the consequences once this is done."

After saying that, he gave the village chief a wink.

The village chief addressed the onlookers outside the gate: "It's getting late, everyone should leave now, we all have to go to work tomorrow."

He then reached out to shoo people away.

The people were kicked out, but no one left; they were all outside discussing what had happened: "What do you think happened?"

"I'm completely confused by them." "Yeah, after all this talk, it seems like these four people are related, no, there are five people involved, including Liangzi's Cunyi."

"That's not quite right either. I heard them mention the first snow."

"What does that have to do with the first snow? They didn't get involved in their mess."

"How do you know she wasn't involved? Now is not the time to flatter."

"You cripple, what nonsense are you spouting? Who did I flatter?"

"Who else could it be but the first snow?"

You can't expect anything good to come out of a dog's mouth.

"If you can, then show me how to vomit."

"piss off."

"Then tell me, how do you know there's no mention of the first snow here?"

"Chu Xue went to Liangzi's house to look for Cunyi. We saw her go straight home and not go to the woods to the south at all."

"What if she had gone there beforehand?"

"Impossible. Don't forget that a lot of red soil was piled up in the woods to the south a few days ago. If you've been there, your feet would be covered in it. People's shoes are always clean."

At this moment, someone chimed in, "Yes, yes, I just remembered. Chu Xue was wearing a pair of white sneakers. I stared at them for a while, thinking that white sneakers must get dirty very easily."

A moment later, the office door opened, and the village chief shouted outside, "Whoever is fast enough, go and call out to Chuxue!"

Someone raised their arm: "Me, me, me, I'll go."

Just as the person turned around, they heard Chuxue's voice from not far away: "No need to go, I'm here."

Liu's mother turned around and saw her: "When did you arrive?"

Chu Xue raised the flashlight in her hand: "Since you hadn't gone back, I thought I'd come and pick you up."

The person who had raised his hand earlier shouted loudly towards the village committee: "Village chief, the first snow is here."

"Let her in."

Chu Xue patted her mother's hand: "Here, take the flashlight. I'm going in for a bit."

There wasn't a hint of guilt on their faces. After all, they really wanted to harm people. Even if Liu Jiandong and Ding Surong saw them, so what? Who would believe them?
The crowd spontaneously made way for her.

But everyone couldn't help but look at Chu Xue's feet. Indeed, she was wearing a pair of white sneakers, which were spotless, without a speck of red dirt on them.

In those days, most villagers wore cloth shoes made by the women in their families who sewed the soles and made the linings. Not everyone could own a pair of rubber-soled sneakers, so no one would have imagined that Chu Xue would have two identical pairs of white sneakers.

So when Liu Jiandong said the same thing as the outsiders, that he saw Chu Xue go to the woods in the south and that her white sneakers must have been covered in red soil, the Party Secretary then asked the village chief to come out and call people. After all, if someone really went there wearing white sneakers, not only the soles but also the uppers of the shoes would inevitably be covered in red soil.
