After the vicious mother-in-law fought back by dressing as a soft bun, she knelt down and begged for

Chapter 526

"Why do we have to go through the back mountain? Isn't the main road leading into the village quite easy to walk on?"

Captain Li was holding a child steadily. Although he looked tall and mighty, the words he said were not very flattering.

"Because I don't want to be a flashy presence or draw attention."

"And the most important thing is that I'm afraid others will find out that I'm away and secretly bully my daughter when I'm not at home."

Lin Wanxin spoke very quickly. Captain Li was not really stupid. He just had a simple mind because he had been in the army for many years.

He joined the army when he was young and had been away from the village for many years.

He stayed away from the intrigues and twists and turns of the village, and became simple and pure.

"I see. How about we send this little girl out later, then return along the same route and leave the village again?"

"With this illusory shot, no one will know you left the village. Then no one will dare to take advantage of the opportunity to bully your daughter."

"No need. The road to the back mountain is actually closer than the road in front. Going back and forth will take quite a while. By then it will be completely dark, and you won't be able to go back."

"Didn't you say that Captain Cai's condition is critical and his life is in danger? We should not waste time."

What Lin Wanxin said made sense, and Captain Li had no way to refute it.

"It seems that my thinking was too simple. If we had known that we could walk through the back mountain, we should have entered the village from the back mountain."

"Ah! I was worried about Captain Cai's condition and didn't pay attention to this problem. I'm really sorry."

If Captain Li hadn't been holding a child in his arms, he would have been beating his chest and stamping his feet in self-blame.

"You didn't say anything nonsense to the villagers when you entered the village, did you?"

Since Captain Li mentioned this matter, Lin Wanxin couldn't help but ask another question.

The first thing Captain Li and Shen Zhenglun thought of was what they said in the village: Lin Wanxin is our sister-in-law.

When I came here, I thought it was okay to talk like this, so I just spoke without restraint.

Now that they knew the twists and turns involved, they were afraid of saying the wrong thing.

When Lin Wanxin looked at them, they immediately stopped talking.

"No, no, we are tight-lipped. How could we possibly say such nonsense in the village?"

Captain Li smiled awkwardly, with a hint of embarrassment in his smile.

Shen Zhenglun hunched his shoulders and lowered his head, only daring to look at the tips of his shoes.

They simultaneously went over what they had said in their minds, and lowered their heads as obediently as quails.

When Lin Wanxin turned around and saw their guilty looks, she knew that these two people must have talked nonsense.

"Confession will be treated leniently, resistance will be treated severely. You two better tell the truth about what you said when you entered the village."

"Tell me the truth now and I won't bother with you. If I find out later, you can handle it yourself."

Lin Wanxin glanced at them with a cold face, and the two of them looked at each other feeling guilty.

After a fierce psychological struggle, Captain Li finally chose to confess.

The main reason is that he can't hide things with his personality. If he knows he has done something wrong and doesn't tell it out loud, he won't be able to sleep at night.

"We just asked Lin Wanxin where Comrade Lin lived in the village, and we also said you were our sister-in-law, that's all."

Captain Li spoke out his thoughts in one breath and immediately felt much more relaxed.

Shen Zhenglun also nodded repeatedly and kept agreeing.

"Yes, that's all we talked about. We didn't say anything else."

"Just sister-in-law? Do you know how much damage you say that will do to my reputation?"

"After you leave, what will the villagers think of me? How will others poke me in the back?"

"Some people say I'm very charming and someone wants me right after my divorce. Some people say I've already found someone before my divorce."
