Free Web NovelChapter 1366: Chapter 1361: No One Can Save You
"Because I said Wang Dali is in town, it’s just a guess!
If he’s not in town but in the mountains, and no one happens to look for him there, wouldn’t he get away with it?" Mu Shuangshuang glanced at everyone present.
"Alright, I’ll take care of it! But if Li Juhua isn’t handed over, the villagers might have objections!" Yu Liulang said.
Li Juhua really went too far this time.
And she’s angered the villagers!
Even if she doesn’t die, she’ll scrape by!
"I’ll handle this! The other bandits were only caught because I led the Yu Family Village people up the mountain, so they should give me face!
But afterward, we’ll have to listen to what the villagers say!" Mu Shuangshuang said.
Everyone listened to Mu Shuangshuang’s words.
As soon as she finished talking, Mr. Yu didn’t dwell on it anymore!
"Alright, Shuangshuang, you go ahead, the villagers will surely give you face!"
Outside the house, people were still shouting, saying things like Li Juhua should be handed over and executed.
Mu Shuangshuang got up, spoke with the Old Yu Family, and then went out.
As soon as she went out, the villagers who had been clamoring stopped cursing Mrs. Li and instead turned to Mu Shuangshuang:
"Miss Shuangshuang, why are you here?"
"Miss Shuangshuang, you were also hard-working yesterday!?"
"Miss Shuangshuang, thank you for what you did for us yesterday!"
"Miss Shuangshuang, don’t worry, we’re after Mrs. Li, we won’t trouble the Old Yu Family, and definitely won’t trouble you!"
Their attitude towards Mu Shuangshuang was really good, and it was clear they were genuinely grateful for what she did!
"Thank you all for your concern! I also know that Mrs. Li bears responsibility for this matter!
But I’m hoping you can give me a little more time, I’ll help you try to catch Wang Dali again, though I can’t guarantee success, I’ll do my best!
In the meantime, I hope you won’t cause trouble for the Old Yu Family, my grandparents are old and can’t handle the stress!
As for Li Juhua, let me handle Wang Dali first, and then we can discuss how to deal with her, is that okay?"
Mu Shuangshuang spoke softly, with a gentle demeanor.
The villagers didn’t actually want to trouble her, and after hearing her out, they relented!
"Miss Shuangshuang, with you leading us, we’re able to catch him, and now you’re volunteering to help us again, we’re very grateful!
We’re willing to give you time, we’ll hold off on Li Juhua for now and wait for you to catch him before we say more!"
Mu Shuangshuang got the expected response, but she still gratefully said to them, "Thank you all, thank you!"
"Miss Shuangshuang, there’s something we’ve wanted to say for a long time, since the Old Yu Family abandoned Mrs. Li, she shouldn’t be allowed to stay in the village! Otherwise, everything will be in chaos!"
Mu Shuangshuang understood the meaning.
There were still people holding grudges against the Old Yu Family.
They thought the family wasn’t harsh enough and so kept the troublemaker Li Juhua around!
"Actually, everyone has misunderstood! To be honest, my grandparents wanted Li to leave a long time ago, but Li has been relying on being the mother of Tiancai and Tian Mei, refusing to leave!
Sympathy given, my grandparents considered their grandchildren, and that’s why they didn’t act harshly! I believe if it were someone else, they probably would have done the same!"
Mu Shuangshuang made a fair point.
The person who spoke turned red after hearing this.
"Alright, I didn’t think it through enough! I will apologize to Mr. Yu and Mrs. Yu! It’s getting late, we should be going!"
The villagers began to leave, one by one.
Mu Shuangshuang also returned to the main room of the Old Yu Family’s house.
A group of people surrounded her, asking about the result.
Naturally, she spoke honestly, "It’s temporarily resolved, but we need to act quickly! I can only take about two days, after that I’ll have to leave Qingshan Town!"
Mu Shuangshuang had to catch up with the county escort agency’s northwest trip on the 20th.
If she missed this, she’d either have to wait another month or go alone!
"Leave Qingshan Town?" Mr. Yu picked up on the key point.
"I haven’t told everyone yet, I have to make a trip to the Northwest, which will take at least three months! I might return for the New Year, or maybe after!" Mu Shuangshuang said.
"What are you going there for?" Old Mrs. Yu was full of worry.
Yu Liulang knew, he took a deep breath and said, "Mom, Shuangshuang has her own plans, please don’t ask!
And it’s getting late, let’s eat, Shuangshuang hasn’t had lunch either!"
Let alone Mu Shuangshuang, none of the slightly worried Old Yu Family members had eaten!
Li Juhua, upon hearing about the meal, swallowed hard.
"Dad, Mom, I’m hungry too..."
"Hungry for what, you fool! Kneel there!" Yu Erlang cursed.
Mr. Yu didn’t even look at Li Juhua, as everyone headed towards the kitchen.
In the main room, there was only Mrs. Li left, along with Yu Tiancai and Mu Shuangshuang, who hadn’t left.
"Mom, be honest and wait for Grandpa and Grandma’s forgiveness, this time I won’t help you either!"
After speaking, he left!
Once Yu Tiancai left, Mu Shuangshuang spoke, "Auntie Li, don’t think that just because you weren’t dragged out today, you’re off the hook, or that it’s over!
Rest assured, your hard days are just beginning! Even if we catch Wang Dali, you probably won’t be able to stay in the village!
Because no one will keep a traitorous village-wrecking wolf around!"
As soon as Mu Shuangshuang said this, Li Juhua’s body started to tremble.
Like being run through a sieve, fear and terror finally appeared in her eyes.
But she still forced herself to act calm!
"No way, I’m Tiancai’s mother, I’m a hero of the Yu Family, Dad and Mom won’t..."
"Wake up, it doesn’t matter whose mother you are! No one can save you!"
...
After dinner, Mu Shuangshuang and Mu Dashan drove the carriage back to Er Gui Village.
Originally, they were supposed to leave after lunch, taking Wang Dali with them!
But Li Juhua messed everything up.
The Old Yu Family wanted Mu Shuangshuang to stay, but she refused.
Last night, her mother had been scared to tears by Li Juhua’s words, and if she didn’t return today, she feared another sleepless night!
Moreover, tomorrow she had to go to town to gather information.
The various intertwined matters didn’t allow her to stay with the Yu Family.
Mr. and Mrs. Yu reluctantly accompanied her to the village entrance.
They were joined by Feng Xiaohua.
Feng Xiaohua, having a child, was in a weakened state, and staying in Yu Family Village wouldn’t be safe.
Yu Liulang insisted she go with Mu Shuangshuang, saying Feng Xiaohua couldn’t return unless Wang Dali was caught.
He really worried himself sick!
By the time it was completely dark, Mu Shuangshuang and the others arrived at Er Gui Village.
When they reached the third branch’s gate and before they got off the carriage, several children had already gathered around.
Seeing Mu Shuangshuang driving, Yuanbao shouted excitedly, "Sister Shuangshuang is back! Sister Shuangshuang is back!"
"Aunt Si, Aunt Si..."
Yu Si Niang hurried out upon hearing the calls, her nose twitched at the sight of Mu Shuangshuang, and tears streamed down her face!
