Chapter 223: Chapter 223 Two-Faced
This was a relatively more remote and underdeveloped village.
It was even farther from the town than Daye Village, and the main roads in the village had not been repaired.
The truck could only make it halfway before it couldn’t go any further.
Yue Jiandong jumped out of the truck and stretched his arms to lift his daughter down.
Chai Pengfu pointed ahead with his hand and muttered to himself, “Counting from the east, the third house, it should be over there.”
Yu Guo’an’s brows had never loosened, and he couldn’t help but sigh.
The three men, accompanied by a child, headed towards the house Chai Pengfu had learned of, and they were noticed halfway there.
In a small village, residents usually recognize each other, and a new face is easily spotted.
A farmer dressed in dark blue clothes stopped Yue Jiandong, “Who are you? What are you doing in our village?”
Before Yue Jiandong could speak, Yu Guo’an had already begun to explain, “I am here to find my brother. His name is Yu Guoqiang.”
The more isolated the village, the quicker the circulation of internal news.
The farmer, leaning on his hoe, showed a peculiar expression, “I thought you looked familiar. The brothers do look quite alike. Are you here for your brother’s wife?”
Yue Jiandong, eager to gather more information, immediately responded, “Big brother, how do you know?”
“How would I not know? That Yu Guoqiang, keeping that shameless Xiuxiu as a mistress, who in the village doesn’t know?”
Chai Pengfu passed over a cigarette.
The old farmer glanced at it and noticed it was a city cigarette, revealing a set of yellow teeth with a grin.
He took the cigarette but didn’t smoke it, tucking it behind his ear.
“Then let me explain in detail. Xiuxiu is known in the village as a loose woman. That man, although not nimble, is very generous. He even added several old hens to Xiuxiu’s house, giving both money and goods.”
“Xiuxiu is always boasting around the village square. But when the women ask her why Yu Guoqiang doesn’t marry her, her face darkens, and everyone understands. Yu Guoqiang must be married, flaunting his wealth to keep a mistress, pah!”
The old farmer spat, his face full of disdain.
Listening to this, Yue Jiandong felt furious. So the goods he frequently sent back through Yu Guoqiang were all fueling his affair?
Thinking about it was truly disgusting.
Yu Guo’an’s face showed even greater anger. He sincerely said, “Lin Xiaohong never minded that he was a son-in-law living with his wife’s parents. She always put his needs first. I didn’t expect him to do such a thing.”
Not to mention deceiving and living off Yue’s money.
Yu Guo’an was both angry and annoyed, furious with himself for having introduced such a rat to Yue Jiandong.
Although the two were brothers, they had not been close since childhood. Yu Guoqiang, because of physical impairments, had developed a resentful and eccentric character.
If it weren’t for the fact that they were brothers, with Yu Guoqiang having some education, Yu Guo’an would never have introduced him to Yue Jiandong.
Now the evidence was clear, Yu Guo’an wished he could find a hole to crawl into.
Yue Jiandong patted his shoulder, thanked the old farmer, and walked towards Xiuxiu’s house.
Seeing their angry expressions, the old farmer chuckled to himself, shouldering his hoe and heading back to the fields.
He had never liked that Yu Guoqiang, a disabled man relying on his money to play with women in their village.
Truly corrupting the morals!
At the doorstep, just as Yue Jiandong was about to knock, he suddenly heard voices from inside.
In the village, each household was separate with no soundproofing, and the voices clearly reached his ears.
Yue Jiandong immediately made a silencing gesture and quietly stood at the door to eavesdrop.
Casually covering his daughter’s ears.
