Chapter 176 They really know how to distort the truth!
Gu Nan stood not far away, watching them coldly.
To be honest, if Gu Nan hadn't been on guard against Huang Yingying's tactics, he could have easily fallen for it.
No one would believe that a young educated youth sent to the countryside would use such a self-destructive method to frame a country bumpkin.
If this incident is truly committed with the perpetrator caught red-handed, it would undoubtedly be a clear-cut case of hooliganism, and no one would believe that the man is innocent.
And a female educated youth would design and do all of this.
It's something that even if you had a mouth, you couldn't explain it.
Huang Yingying's eyes were filled with tears, but she continued to pretend to be innocent.
This matter cannot be explained, it is completely inexplicable.
"I really drank too much and went to the wrong place. My clothes... I really didn't tear them myself... I..." Huang Yingying said, crying, but her words were not convincing at all.
"There was only you and an eight-year-old child in the house. Baozi was on the earthen bed covered with a quilt, and he was terrified. How could he possibly tear your clothes?"
"Besides, do you want to see how your clothes were torn?" Aunt Zhou walked up to Huang Yingying.
There's a difference between tearing clothes from the neckline downwards or from the bottom upwards.
Anyone who has done needlework can recognize it.
Baozi was already thin and weak, less than 1.2 meters tall. If he wanted to tear Huang Yingying's clothes, he would tear them from the bottom up.
Huang Yingying's clothes were clearly torn starting from the neckline and working downwards.
It's still possible to tell who's lying.
Because of the awkward location, Jiang Aiguo couldn't verify it, so he asked a few older women and young wives to come and take a look, and then everything became clear.
When all the facts were laid bare before Huang Yingying, she felt her legs go weak.
This move of his own was a complete disaster.
Then the things I was about to face... became very troublesome.
Zhao Sulan, who was watching the commotion from the sidelines, had a mocking smile on her lips.
He probably thought that Huang Yingying was really blind to have tried to use her innocence to get involved with a peasant like Gu Nan.
Besides being better looking, having a better physique, and being stronger, what else does Gu Nan have that can compare to Lu Xingguang?
Seriously, only a blind person would like Gu Nan! Yes! Su Niannian must be blind too!
Su Niannian's marriage was nowhere near as good as hers; she was the best-married girl in the village.
As Zhao Sulan thought this, she looked at Lu Xingguang with eyes full of stars.
Lu Xingguang felt the gaze directed at him and turned his head to see Zhao Sulan staring at him with a smile.
He couldn't help but shiver and turned his head away from Zhao Sulan.
When Zhao Sulan saw Lu Xingguang's reaction, she actually smiled, thinking that Lu Xingguang was just shy.
It really is... abnormal human thinking.
After several aunties, older women, and young wives examined the torn opening in Huang Yingying's clothes, they all came to the same conclusion.
"It was torn from the collar downwards."
Huang Yingying's legs went even weaker, and she collapsed to the ground.
It’s over.
It's all over.
Huang Yingying is now desperate for help, but no one can save her.
"So, are you going to explain why you did this?" Jiang Aiguo looked down at Huang Yingying, who was slumped on the ground.
"I really drank too much, and I really didn't tear my clothes myself. I had no reason to do that!"
Huang Yingying gritted her teeth and chose to protect herself over Gu Nan.
She also knew that after she said what she was about to say, there would be no possibility for her and Gu Nan to be together again.
This money tree will never have anything to do with me again.
“I am a female educated youth, beautiful and with a good figure. I have no reason to use my innocence to frame some country bumpkin. Besides, Gu Nan’s family has a bad class background and he is about to get married. I really have no reason to do this.”
"I was just drunk and went into the wrong room. Then someone ripped my clothes. That room was Gu Nan's bridal chamber. It's understandable that I mistook it for Gu Nan's."
Huang Yingying sat on the ground, tears streaming down her face.
She recounted everything with tears streaming down her face.
Gu Nan watched coldly from the side, while Li Ergou rolled his eyes when he heard Huang Yingying's words.
"A country bumpkin? From a bad family background? You used to have feelings for my brother Nan." Li Ergou said, arms crossed.
It's infuriating that someone from the countryside, with a bad class background, is being talked about like this now. Li Ergou is unhappy.
"It's all a misunderstanding! How could I possibly be interested in Gu Nan? You all misunderstood me from the beginning, which is why you thought I was framing him with my innocence... Waaah!" Huang Yingying cried sincerely.
"You..." Li Ergou was speechless. He didn't know how to refute her words.
"I'm a witness. I saw you sneaking into Gu Nan's bridal chamber with my own eyes. You don't look like you're drunk at all."
"You put out the candles in the room yourself, and you tore your clothes yourself. Do you think you can get away with this by saying that?" Aunt Zhou quickly retorted.
"Aunt Zhou, I don't usually have any interaction with you, why are you framing me like this?" Huang Yingying continued to cry.
Aunt Zhou was stunned. How could this young girl twist the truth like this? Isn't it obvious?
Is this an attempt to turn black into white?
"Why don't we call the police?" Aunt Zhou was also getting angry. If Huang Yingying continued to argue like this, this matter would probably never end.
Li Guofu looked at Jiang Aiguo, then at Huang Yingying who was lying on the ground crying.
He naturally didn't want to report it to the police; if people from other villages found out, he would lose face.
It will also affect the village's reputation, which is completely detrimental.
"Then let's report it to the police and let the professionals handle the case!" Jiang Aiguo didn't care about anything else, and he was more willing to believe that Huang Yingying was lying!
"It's not that serious, is it?" Li Guofu immediately spoke up when he saw that Jiang Aiguo also agreed to report it to the police.
If things escalate, Li Guofu feels that he, as the village chief, will definitely be implicated.
Li Guofu's background is not clean; he just wants to develop in a low-key manner and is afraid of meeting any police officers.
"Then what do you suggest we do?" Jiang Aiguo turned his head to look at Li Guofu, wanting to see how he planned to resolve the matter.
Then, Li Guofu thought for a moment and spoke.
"If you ask me, although Huang Yingying has problems, she hasn't committed any serious crimes, nor has she caused any harm to anyone. Why not let her move to the cowshed for a few months as a form of punishment?"
"There's no need to make such a big deal out of it," Li Guofu said, then felt that his idea was pretty good.
In those days, living in a cowshed was a symbol of guilt.
