At this moment, more and more people were coming to the village to fetch water, and the villagers who were looking for Su Yuniang had also rushed back. 

Everyone gathered at the entrance village and heard the conversation between Mrs. Zhou and Su Pangya, and couldn’t help but surround them. 

Upon seeing the villagers present, Mrs. Zhou suddenly gained confidence. 

She said in a loud voice, “Su Pangya, you know what you have done yourself! It’s a shame that Yuniang treated you as a doctor, trusted you, and even spent so much money to move to your house. But you are actually so greedy and shameless, you even harmed Yuniang for the sake of money!” 

“What do you mean for the sake of money?” Aunt Wu asked, “Sister Zhou, food can be eaten indiscriminately, but words cannot be spoken indiscriminately ah.” 

“I didn’t talk nonsense!” Mrs. Zhou snorted coldly, “Everyone doesn’t know, right? Yesterday Su Yuniang was taking a large sum of money to the Su family’s house! Then she disappeared at night! What do you think? What is it if it’s not Su Pangya and the others plotting to kill people for money!” 

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Oh, how did you know that she took money to my house? Did you see it?” 

Mrs. Zhou said, “Whether there is any, just search your house and we will find out!” 

Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes turned cold and said, “You dared to search my house? Surnamed Zhou, I think you are tired of living!” 

Mrs. Zhou was frightened by Su Xiaoxiao’s bully aura and took a big step back. 

She said fiercely, “you… you you…. You feel guilty, right? If you have a clear conscience, why didn’t you let us search your house? I think you are hiding Yuniang’s money! So you are afraid that we will find it out!” 

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Today, just because a person suspects me, she can search my house. Then if someone questions me again tomorrow, do I have to open the door and welcome that person in? What do you think of my Su family’s house?” 

“What happened?” 

“Lizheng!” 

*Lizheng (里正) : An official position in ancient china, mainly in charge of household registrations and tax payment. 

Lizheng came here with Old Mr. Su. 

Lizheng also spent the whole night searching and met Old Mr. Su who came down from the mountain halfway. 

The two of them were about a hundred years old in total, not like young men. They hadn’t slept a night and looked extremely haggard. 

Especially Lizheng, he was obviously ten years younger than Old Mr. Su, but he looked more tired than Old Mr. Su. 

The person who just asked was Lizheng. 

Li Xiaoyong said, “Aunt Zhou slandered Daya, saying that Daya harmed Yuniang.” 

Mrs. Zhou was furious, “What do you mean I slandered her? I told the truth! If you don’t believe it……. If you don’t believe it, you can just ask Old Mr. Su! Whether Yuniang carried a large sum of money when she left home!” 

Old Mr. Su was hesitant to speak. 

Lizheng said, “Elder brother Su, you can say it frankly.” 

Old Mr. Su said in a complicated expression, “Yuniang’s valuable items…… are indeed missing.” 

Mrs. Zhou quickly said, “Did you hear that!” 

Su Xiaoxiao chuckled and said, “Just based on this, you said that I am murdering someone for money? You guys are really so good at solving cases, why don’t you go to the court to be a magistrate?” 

“You……” Mrs. Zhou was so angry that she fell backwards. 

Su Xiaoxiao said again, “Speaking of Yuniang carrying money, I suddenly remembered something. Sanlang said that he heard Yuniang was arguing with her family, and after the argument, Yuniang left. Why wasn’t it you guys who plotted to kill Yuniang?” 

“Yuniang is from our Old Su family! How could we harm her?” 

It was Su Can. 

He and Erlang just came back from outside. 

He looked at Old Mr. Su and said, “Dad, we just went to the Zheng family and Yuniang didn’t come back to her in-laws’ house.” 

Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows lightly and said, “Then you can tell me, what are you arguing about with Yuniang?” 

“Arguing……” Su Can was about to talk about the matter of quarreling and divorce, but he stopped in time as soon as he received Old Mr. Su’s gaze.

He said, “We wanted Yuniang to return back, but she refused. She said that you want her to receive more treatment for a few more days. If she comes back early and leaves the root of her illness behind, you won’t be responsible!  We think that you were probably just scaring her. Yuniang was bewitched by you. She wouldn’t listen to us! She even took the money to pay you the medical fee with her money!” 

“I was wrong.” Su Xiaoxiao sincerely apologized. 

Everyone was stunned, she just admitted? 

Su Xiaoxiao continued, “You shouldn’t be a magistrate, you should be a storyteller.” 

At first, the villagers didn’t understand, and it took them a while to come to their senses. 

Su Pangya was mocking the Old Su family for making up stories. 

“Pfft……” 

Aunt Liu couldn’t help laughing out loud. 

Old Mr. Su glanced at her with a sullen expression . 

She quickly put away her laughter and looked solemnly into the distance. 

Su Can said, “Dad, in my opinion, it was them who harmed Yuniang.”  

The people of the Old Su family dared to slander Su Daya recklessly. In fact, they had calculated Su Daya’s temperament.
