80 Liu Hua Has Evidence
Xia Wan smiled, thinking that her brother was spontaneously trying to protect his family.
“Alright, you follow me.”
The three of them walked out of the room. At this time, Liu Hua was with several men, and they were confronting Li Jin aggressively.
Li Jin’s three sons were by her side this time, and she was even more confident. Both sides were clamoring, and no one was willing to take this responsibility.
Liu Hua snorted. “My Liu Shi has already told me. Just two nights ago, your Xia Ru secretly climbed over the wall to talk to him. After that, he got this illness.
“I thought your Xia Ru had a good reputation, and I didn’t want to say it out loud. However, your family is too shameless and doesn’t dare to admit it. So, I have no choice but to say it.”
As she spoke, Liu Hua looked at Li Jin’s family with disdain.
At first, her son was still protecting Xia Ru and refused to tell her when he had come into contact with her. She didn’t expect Xia Ru to be so shameless. It was already dark, yet she still went out to meet a man in private.
Her son had always been sensible, so it must be Xia Ru’s fault.
This was the first time Li Jin found out that Xia Ru had actually gone to look for Liu Shi. She subconsciously felt that Liu Hua was lying to her. Even if it was true, Li Jin couldn’t admit it, especially now that the neighbors had come over and looked like they were watching a show. If she admitted it now, Xia Ru’s reputation would be ruined.
“Don’t lie to me. My family can testify that Xia Ru never went out at night!” Li Jin’s tone was firm.
At this moment, Liu Hua took out a candy wrapper and said to Li Jin, “You should still remember this candy wrapper, right? Your Xia Ru bought it. I know she also bought it for your family. In our entire village, only your Xia Ru bought this candy.”
Li Jin’s expression changed when she saw the candy wrapper.
In the past, she used to praise Xia Ru for being so sensible. She would hand in her salary every time and buy all kinds of candies when she went home. Even though she had bad teeth now, she still felt very happy to be able to eat candies.
However, it was different now. The candy had become evidence. Li Jin’s face darkened, and she really felt like questioning Xia Ru.
Seeing that Li Jin didn’t say anything, Liu Hua knew that she was in the wrong. She immediately started to argue, “Everyone, come and judge. Her Xia Ru seduced our Liu Shi. Our son has very high standards. Why would he like her Xia Ru? I didn’t expect that girl to have such a strange illness to the point she even harmed my son.
“We won’t look into anything else now. Just say that Li Jin’s family has to cure our son’s illness, or they have to pay us a thousand yuan right now. Only then would we let this matter go.”
Li Jin’s eyes widened. “A thousand yuan? Why don’t you just rob someone? We don’t have that much money!”
The combined income of her sons was less than a thousand yuan a month. How could she, Liu Hua, have the audacity to ask for so much?
Liu Hua didn’t care about that. Her husband injured himself while working in the field, and he still couldn’t walk. She did all the work at home and had high hopes for her son. Now that Xia Ru had caused her son to fall sick, she definitely couldn’t let this matter go.
“Your Xia Ru only earns a small amount of money a month. You have to know that our Liu Shi has found a good job. They said they’d give our Liu Shi a salary of 40 yuan a day. That’s 1200 yuan a month. Your Xia Ru has delayed our Liu Shi’s work, so I’m only asking for 1000 yuan from you. Do you think that’s too much?
“I don’t care. If you can’t come up with the money, I’ll go to Xia Ru’s workplace and make a scene. Let’s see if she can continue working then.”
Liu Hua became even prouder as she spoke, knowing for a fact that Li Jin would definitely give in for the sake of Xia Ru’s reputation.
Li Jin was completely flustered. She quickly grabbed Xia Jiang’s arm and scolded, “What’s wrong with your daughter? Did she really do such a shameless thing? Now that they’ve come to our doorstep to talk about this, what do you think we should do?”
Xia Jiang was also in disbelief. His good daughter, who had always been the pride of the family, had actually gone to look for Liu Shi?
His face darkened. “I’ll go ask her now!”
