"I know my boy Cheng, he can be a bit mischievous at times, but he would never do such a thing. Don't think you can just slander my child because you have more people in your family!"
The Ruanlin family head turned around and called out to Xiu Xun in the yard, "Xiu Xun, tell us what happened just now in front of Li Gang's house." Li Gang's house was where Xiu Cheng had been hiding earlier.
Xiu Xun's father, Xiu Jianhong, and his brother, Xiu Jianlin, had fallen out over the division of the family property a long time ago and hadn't interacted for many years.
Liu Mei frowned in disgust as soon as she saw Xiu Xun.
Xiu Xun didn't hide anything and recounted exactly what he had seen earlier.
