Chapter 2: The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada, the Oriole Waits Behind

A beam of flashlight light shone on Zhao Pozi, and the crowd was also a little surprised.

The village head looked at Zhao Pozi standing at the door of Bai Ru Qiao’s room, then at the closed door behind her, with a puzzled expression.

“What’s the situation inside? Have you caught the person?”

Team Leader Fang Hanwu walked forward, thinking that Zhao Pozi was also there to catch the thief.

Zhao Pozi’s heart skipped a beat when she heard this.

She thought these people were here to catch her son.

She immediately shouted loudly, spreading her arms to protect the door behind her. “What are you doing? Why are you breaking into my house in the middle of the night!

Are you trying to steal something? Old man, old man, wake up, there’s a thief!”

Zhao Pozi’s shrill voice was almost as loud as a whistle.

A few seconds later, they heard Zhao Gen Sheng’s panicked voice from the other room.

“What thief? Where?”

Accompanied by the sound of clattering.

Apparently, something had been knocked to the ground.

The crowd’s faces changed.

The village head angrily shouted, “Zhao Jin Qiao, what nonsense are you talking about? We are…”

Before the village head could finish, Zhao Xiao Hui rushed out.

She choked back a sob. “Mom, did my sister-in-law already…”

When everyone heard this, they knew what she meant, and their expressions immediately changed.

Zhao Pozi was also stunned when she saw her youngest daughter squeezing out of the crowd.

Didn’t this girl go to sleep? Why is she here?

At this moment, Zhao Gen Sheng had already run out.

Seeing this, Zhao Xiao Hui immediately shouted with a voice full of indignation.

“Mom, I know you want to protect our Zhao family’s reputation.

But now, my sister-in-law is having this kind of affair with a strange man.

We can’t cover it up no matter what. That man, he’s a criminal, wuwuwu.”

Zhao Gen Sheng was stunned, his head buzzing from these words.

What? His daughter-in-law is having an affair with a strange man?

He looked at the group of people confronting his wife.

He was so embarrassed that his face turned red and white, and he roared angrily as he rushed towards Zhao Sihai’s door.

“That woman dares to cheat! I knew she was restless!”

Zhao Pozi was also startled.

Seeing her husband rushing over, she instinctively wanted to dodge.

Then she remembered her son who was still in the room.

She hurriedly stopped and reached out to stop him. “Bao, her dad…”

Before she could finish, she was pushed aside by Zhao Gen Sheng, who was furious, and almost rolled down the steps.

Inside the room, Zhao Lao San’s face turned pale, and he was pacing around the room in a panic.

However, Zhao Sihai’s room was completely visible, with nowhere to hide.

“Bang, bang, bang!” Three sounds rang out in succession, and the wooden door was kicked open and fell to the ground.

Zhao Lao San screamed in fright.

His off-key voice was so loud that Zhao Gen Sheng didn’t recognize it for a moment.

He rushed over, following the sound, and saw a blurry figure.

He grabbed the person with his big hand, then cursed and beat him fiercely.

The people around heard a man’s voice from inside the room.

After realizing what was happening, they also rushed inside.

Fang Hanwu was at the front, his flashlight swaying, revealing his agitated mood.

“Stop, don’t hit him!” Zhao Pozi’s heart trembled as she heard her son’s cries.

She wanted to push through the crowd, but Zhao Xiao Hui grabbed her arm and pulled her back.

She pretended to shout, “Mom, my sister-in-law’s affair can’t be hidden today. Everyone has seen it.”

“Yes, yes, Jin Qiao, don’t make trouble. First, catch the thief.” Liu Shen helped to hold her back.

Another Zhao surname aunt said sarcastically.

“Oh, what’s the point of catching him? Bai Ru Qiao has already been slept with.

Poor Sihai, he’s not even back yet, and his wife is already someone else’s.”

At this time, the second batch of people who had heard the commotion arrived.

They came in and heard what Zhao Shen said, and they were all shocked.

What’s going on?

Bai Ru Qiao was caught cheating?

Just then, a surprised shout came from inside the room.

“Zhao Lao San? Why are you here?”

Outside, Zhao Xiao Hui, who was tightly holding onto Zhao Pozi’s arm, was trembling with excitement.

Her eyes were fixed on the room, her heart pounding.

She couldn’t wait to see Bai Ru Qiao being condemned by everyone.

At this moment, the room suddenly fell silent.

Zhao Pozi let out a roar and forcefully pushed Zhao Xiao Hui away.

She pushed through the crowd and rushed into the room.

Her agile movements and speed were completely unlike an old woman who bound her feet.

As soon as she entered, she hugged her son, who was surrounded by several people and trembling with fear.

Then, she fiercely kicked Zhao Gen Sheng, who was standing next to her with a dazed expression.

“You old fool, you dare to hit my Bao’er! If anything happens to my son, I’ll take your life!”

Everyone was stunned by her roar and came to their senses.

Then they were even more confused.

Fang Hanwu shone his light around.

But there was no sign of Bai Ru Qiao in the room.

“Where’s Bai Zhi Qing?”

The village head also reacted. “Yes, didn’t they say there was a thief who broke in? Zhao Lao San, why are you in the room? Where are your sister-in-law and nephew?”

Zhao Pozi was completely furious.

Hearing them question her son, her head buzzed, and she immediately thought of ‘Bai Ru Qiao’.

She was afraid that Bai Ru Qiao, that slut, would accuse her son of molestation, so she immediately shouted.

“This has nothing to do with my son. It’s all Bai Ru Qiao, that slut, who seduced my son. She’s the one who’s cheating…

No, she’s the one who molested my son. Village head, arrest that slut!”

The people outside couldn’t see what was happening inside.

They gasped and started to discuss.

“What’s going on? Bai Ru Qiao seduced her brother-in-law? Is it true?”

“How could it be fake? She was caught red-handed.”

“Hey, that white fox spirit, she looks so seductive. You can tell she’s not a decent woman.”

The few intellectuals who had arrived later and were squeezed at the gate were also stunned.

Liao Yu An looked at her in disbelief, then his face was filled with disappointment and anger.

He couldn’t believe that Bai Ru Qiao was this kind of woman.

If only he had known…

If only he had known, he wouldn’t have been so reserved.

Lin Qian Qian’s expression was surprisingly in sync with Zhao Xiao Hui’s.

Her face was full of excitement and malice.

“Heh, this woman, she really disgraced our intellectuals. Such a shameless woman should be dragged to the field and publicly humiliated!”

“What humiliation? So many people? What are you all doing?”

Fang Shen’s loud voice suddenly rang out, startling everyone.

They quickly turned around and were stunned.

They saw four people standing outside the gate.

Fang Chun Sheng was holding a flashlight in one hand and a backpack in the other.

Behind him were Fang Shen and her eldest daughter-in-law.

And being supported by the two women in the middle was…

They stared at her in a daze.

Liao Yu An exclaimed in surprise, “Bai Zhi Qing? How are you here? Didn’t you…”

That’s right, the one being supported was Bai Ru Qiao, who was ‘caught in bed’.

The Fang family was also confused.

Bai Ru Qiao was even more surprised and bewildered.

She looked at them in confusion, then at the chaotic scene in the courtyard, and asked in confusion.

“What’s going on? What’s happening?”

Lin Qian Qian finally came to her senses.

Her face changed, and she suddenly shouted loudly, “Bai Ru Qiao is here! Bai Ru Qiao has run out!”
