The Village Girl Who Jinxes Her Husband Is Filthy Rich Chapter 346 - Witness

Chapter 346: Witness

Translator: Lonelytree 

The night was as dark as a bottomless abyss. However, at this moment, everyone was sleeping peacefully in their beds.

A small and exquisite figure quietly came to the window of a bedroom. Then, she carefully opened the window and poked a bamboo pipe through. A wisp of smoke floated out from the pipe.

After that, she left the house quietly without alerting anyone.

…

Following the rumor that Lin Mingqing might be able to stand again, the rumor that his accident might be related to Lin Laosan’s family started spreading too.

If that was the case, then Lin Laosan’s family wasn’t just a jinx. They were murderers.

“Changxing’s wife, you can’t say things without evidence!” Someone chided the woman, “otherwise, they’ll bring you to court.”

Changxing’s wife’s face turned pale, and fear and panic could be seen on her face. However, Changxing’s wife gritted her teeth and said, “I saw this with my own eyes!”

“What?”

Her words shocked all the women present.

“Changxing’s wife, what do you mean by this?” Coincidentally, the village chief’s wife came over with a wooden basin. When she heard what Changxing’s wife said, she immediately asked sternly.

Changxing’s wife s.h.i.+vered when she heard this. She was a little uneasy and afraid.

Lin Yiwei’s wife asked sternly again, “Changxing’s wife, why aren’t you saying anything? What did you see when my Qing ‘Er got into the accident?” Then, she thought about it and immediately put down the wooden basin. She came over and pulled Changxing’s wife away. “No, you have to go to my house now and explain clearly.”

Changxing’s wife staggered as Lin Yiwei’s wife pulled her. She seemed to be a little unwilling, but she was unable to resist the village chief’s wife. The other women looked at each other in dismay. No one had thought that Lin Mingqing’s accident could be related to Lin Laosan’s family.

This instantly garnered everyone’s attention. They either stopped was.h.i.+ng or gave their clothes a few quick rubs. Then, they quickly followed the two women to the village chief’s house.

“Lan ‘Er, will this really work?” Lin Yiwei asked uneasily.

Lin Yuelan said to Lin Yiwei calmly, “Grandpa village chief, we are not doing anything wrong. The main culprit is Lin Daniu. It’s just that we lost all the clues, and the evidence was almost destroyed. However, I believe there’s still a witness.” Lin Yuelan shook her head and added, “We are merely going to get her testimony.”

Zhou Xiaoliu, Changxing’s wife, was the witness at the scene.

At that time, Zhou Xiaoliu was only fifteen years old. She had just married into the Lin family Village and was unfamiliar with the people and the land. When she happened to encounter such a big incident, she panicked and was afraid, not knowing what to do.

She was afraid that if she complained and offended Lin Laosan’s family, they would take revenge on her. Back then, she had just married over, and Lin Laosan’s family was a big local family. Plus, Lin Laosan’s family might produce a scholar in the future. It would be easy for them to take revenge on her.

If she didn’t testify, the culprit would be free even though he had harmed an innocent person.

Hence, Zhou Xiaoliu spent her days in hesitation and uneasiness.

Later, when everyone unanimously pushed the blame for Lin Mingqing’s disaster on Lin Yuelan, she gradually let go of the matter and buried it deep in her heart, pretending that nothing had happened.

However, she had a nightmare last night!

She dreamed of her two-year-old child being hit by a carriage. She wanted to stop the carriage and report them to the court. She wanted them to pay the price and take revenge for her child.

However, she was just a simple woman, and there was no one to stand up for her. What frightened her the most was that the driver not only did not admit his mistake and apologize, but he even looked at her and said arrogantly, “Hmph, there is no one here to see that I hit someone. Who will believe you anyway? Do you have any witnesses? I can say that you were the one who deliberately pushed your child in front of my carriage so that you could get compensation from me. You’ve even dirtied my carriage because of it!”
