General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming novel Chapter 171

171 Blackmail

Compared to the peace and quiet of Su Xiao Xiao’s family, the Su family could be said to have exploded.

No one expected things to turn out like this. They had clearly planned it, but what had gone wrong?

Why did they mess it up in front of the villagers?

If not for Su Erlang being smart and taking responsibility, the Su family’s reputation would probably have been ruined.

Old Master Su sat in the central room with a livid expression.

Su Can and Su Erlang had ugly expressions.

Su Can was puzzled. “I don’t understand. Dad, didn’t you send Yuniang away? Why is she back?”

This was also something that Old Master Su could not figure out. He had personally seen Su Dalang carry her to the ferry.

That place was at least ten to twenty miles away from the village. With Su Yuniang’s strength after her confinement, she could not have walked back in the dark.

Su Jinniang walked silently toward her room.

“Stop.” Old Master Su stopped her.

Su Jinniang turned around in fear and lowered her head, not daring to look at him. “Grandpa.”

Old Master Su looked at her obvious expression and asked in a low voice, “Do you know something?”

“I…” Su Jinniang bit her lip and whispered, “Fatty Su came to look for me last night. She… she found that bag and asked if I pretended to be Sister to hide the bag at her house.”

Su Can was shocked. “Why didn’t you say so earlier!”

Su Jinniang said aggrievedly, “I was knocked unconscious by Fatty Su. When I woke up, I went to look for you, but…”

However, at the entrance of Little Su’s house, Old Master Su did not give her a chance to speak. _{freeωebnovēl.c૦m}

If he had known this news in advance, Old Master Su would have stopped Su Can and his son from slandering the Su family.

That way, things would not have ended up like this.

Knowing that he had made a huge mistake, Old Master Su closed his eyes in regret.

Su Can suddenly said, “By the way, Dad, Yuniang is back. Where’s Dalang?”

Su Dalang only arrived home at noon. He was kicked into the water by the man in black who had appeared for no reason. He drank a stomach full of ice water. When he was pulled ashore by the boatman and his wife, he almost lost half his life.

It was not that he did not know how to swim, but he could not swim at all in such thick clothes in winter.

He thought that he had suffered in the water, but his troubles had just begun.

The couple complained that he had offended someone he shouldn’t have provoked and asked him to compensate them for their boat!

How could Su Dalang have money?

The boatman and his wife refused to let him go and even threatened to arrest him to see the officials.

Su Dalang was frightened out of his wits. In the end, under the “forgiveness” of the boatman and his wife, he signed an IOU and was released by the two of them.

When Old Master Su heard this, how could he not understand that his grandson had been extorted?

That couple had done something shameful. If they really reported it to the officials, the two of them would have to spend the rest of their lives in prison!

As long as Su Dalang insisted that he did not know that person, the boatman and his wife could not do anything to him.

If it were Su Yuniang, she would not have fallen for this.

Thinking of Su Yuniang, Old Master Su felt even more stifled.

“Dalang, how much did they ask you to compensate?” Su Can asked.

Su Dalang lowered his head. “Five, five hundred taels.”

“What?” Su Can’s vision darkened and he fainted on the chair…

It was noon when Su Xiaoxiao woke up.

She stretched, feeling energetic.

It was not that she had not survived the night in the past, but no matter how long she slept, she still felt a trace of fatigue when she woke up.

She was extremely sure that multivitamins did not have such an effect. Could it be the collagen peptide from last time?
