When everyone heard Chen Baiyi’s words, they were shocked. He was still alive? The person beside him stopped crying and pounced forward to grab Chen Baiyi. “What did you say? You said that he wasn’t dead?”

Chen Baiyi helped the person up and said seriously, “Really, he can still be saved.”

At this moment, a rough voice came from outside the crowd. “What’s wrong?”

Everyone looked at the source of the sound. It was He Xiao. When He Xiao saw that everyone was surrounding Chen Baiyi, he knew that it must have something to do with her. He walked forward and asked what had happened. Chen Baiyi quickly told him the current situation in detail, but she omitted the part with Dog Two and Chen Xinyue.

When He Xiao heard that the person on the straw mat was “dead” after eating her food, but Chen Baiyi said that he had seen him move just now, he immediately guessed what was going on. He picked up the person on the straw mat with one hand and clenched his fist. He pointed one side of his thumb at the person’s abdomen and chest while he clenched his other hand into a fist and quickly pressed it against the person’s abdomen.

After repeating this a few times, something flew out of the person’s throat. It was peanuts, an ingredient Chen Baiyi used to make pig’s head meat.

After the person spat out the peanuts, he coughed for a while and regained consciousness. Seeing that he was awake, his family member walked to He Xiao. “Thank you, thank you so much.” He was about to kneel down when He Xiao grabbed him and pulled him up.

After he regained his composure, he wiped his tears and walked to Chen Baiyi. He held Chen Baiyi’s hand. “Baiyi, our family has wronged you. Your stepmother said that the things you cooked were dirty, so she asked us to seek justice from you. That’s why we thought that it was… it was…” When the person said this, the person felt embarrassed.

When Chen Baiyi heard this, she instantly understood that Zhang Xiulan had asked them to come.

“The village chief is here,” someone shouted from the crowd.

“What’s wrong with you people? Why are you all gathered at the door of Chen Baiyi’s house? Do you all have nothing to do?” After they were reprimanded by the village chief, no one dared to continue watching the commotion. They dispersed. “What’s wrong with you two? If you blame your own negligence on the person who sold things to you, who would dare to sell things to your family?”

“With such unreasonable parents like you guys, since the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, your son won’t be that smart either. Forget about your youngest son’s internship at the village council. We’ll see about it in the future.”

“Village Chief, it’s our fault. The two of us were too muddle-headed and believed the rumors, but our son…” When the two of them heard this, their previous joy disappeared and was replaced by fear. They begged the village chief for mercy.

“Stop talking. We’ll see about it later. If there’s nothing else, go back. Don’t keep blocking other people’s door.” The village chief left after saying that.

The two of them looked at each other with regret. If they had known earlier, they would have investigated clearly first. Now, their son’s future had been ruined by them. It was all because of that despicable Zhang Xiulan that they became like this. They couldn’t let this matter go like this. They had to settle the score with Zhang Xiulan.

The two of them found Zhang Xiulan and tried to reason with her. “Zhang Xiulan, you were the one who told me that Chen Baiyi’s food was dirty and that he died after eating it. Now, it seems like you were spouting nonsense. Now, my son can’t intern in the village council anymore. His future is ruined just like that. You have to compensate us.”
