Chapter 191: Chapter 191: The Secret is Exposed

Sun Junyan was in quite a sorry state.

His hair was disheveled, and he was covered in blood.

This sight was a bit shocking for the ordinary folk in the small village.

But by this time, it was getting dark and everyone couldn’t see very clearly.

Tong Tiehu ordered someone to throw Sun Junyan in front of the old Qiao Family house, and he also let the two women who had been restraining the Sun Family go.

The Sun Family matron, who had been tied up for most of the day, was finally released. Ignoring trouble from Tong Tiehu, Qiao Xiaomai, and Qiao Qinghe, she let out a horrifying scream and cried as she threw herself at Sun Junyan.

At this point, her hair was in a mess, her expression fierce, on the verge of a breakdown.

“Carry him in, carry him in, don’t delay his treatment,” a slightly impatient fifty-something Dr. Wu ordered Qiao Changfu and his brothers.

Earlier, during the procession through the village, Tong Tiehu had sent for Dr. Wu to wait at the Qiao Family Old House to treat Sun Junyan as soon as possible.

As a Village Chief, even while settling personal vendettas, Tong Tiehu would always maintain a magnificent spectacle.

Upon seeing Dr. Wu, Mrs. Sun no longer had time to cry, she immediately ordered Qiao Changfu and his brothers to carry Sun Junyan into their house.

Tong Tiehu watched the scene with cold eyes, then waved his hand to disperse the crowd.

With the day turning into night, everyone had had their fill of the excitement and returned home.

Qiao Xiaomai, amidst the crowd, ignored their strange looks and walked home.

Due to his leg injury, Qiao Changshun did not participate in the procession; Qiao Dami had also gone home with him, as the procession was not suitable for children.

By the time Qiao Xiaomai got home, Qiao Changshun had already made dinner: Rice porridge, cold-dressed elm seeds, and white Steamed Buns.

After a whole day of busyness, everyone was quite tired, so they casually had their dinner and went to their rooms to sleep.

Per usual, Qiao Xiaomai poured a cup of Spiritual Spring water and recalling the events of the day, she heaved a sigh of relief, but also started to worry.

Although they had dealt with the Sun Family and humiliated Sun Junyan, the pressure from Yang Ye had not decreased.

And now, there was the mysterious Tong Family to deal with.

Tong Tiehu was just a Village Chief, the lowest-ranking official in Daqi, it seemed quite abnormal for a Village Chief to be so chummy with the county magistrate.

Then there was that inexplicable confession from Tong Sanlang today.

Listing her strengths and weaknesses finger by finger, with a sincere and serious look on his face.

Bah!

Did he really take her for the naive village girl the original body was?

There must be an unmentionable aim behind all this!

She massaged her temples, tossed the cup into her storage space, and closed her eyes to sleep.

She would face whatever came at her.

The next day was sunny and cloudless, a good day for making tofu skin. After breakfast, Qiao Changshun sat in front of the stove again, Qiao Dami was cooking soybean residue to feed the chickens, and Qiao Xiaomai put on her back basket and went up the mountain to collect firewood.

She didn’t meet anyone along the way. She remembered the three trees she had broken last time and walked towards them.

After wandering around the mountain for more than an hour, she had gathered another hundred pounds of dry firewood.

No one was around, so she effortlessly picked up the pile of firewood, which was taller than her, with one hand and prepared to go down the mountain.

Just then, she heard a somewhat familiar male voice coming from behind, “Miss Qiao, wait for a moment.”

The sudden voice startled her, and her body involuntarily trembled.

At the next moment, she realized an even worse problem: her secret of possessing superhuman strength was exposed!

What to do, what to do, what to do?

How was she to explain to Tong Sanlang that she could easily drag a hundred pounds of firewood?

While her body froze, her mind was working faster than ever.

People in ancient times were superstitious.. She didn’t want to be seen as a monster and get burnt to death!
