Chapter 225: Chapter 226 Misfire
“The fire’s started, everyone come help put it out!” someone in the crowd shouted, and the house of the Xujia Village Captain burst into a large blaze.
Chen Yanran and Dong Wenzhong saw this and smiled, quickly running towards the Xu Family village workshop.
Upon arrival, they split up; one headed towards the food storage area, and the other towards the clothing manufacturing area.
Chen Yanran took out the key she had prepared in advance and easily unlocked the door to the food storage, her lips curled up in a pleased smile as she entered.
She had just taken out the poison and had not yet placed it inside when suddenly, all the lights in the room turned on and dozens of people stood inside, all staring at Chen Yanran.
“Chen Yanran, you have such a wicked heart, actually wanting to poison these foods.
You seem so kind and frail on the surface, but who would have thought you could be so ruthless? If these foods were poisoned, none of us could escape involvement.
You want to destroy us all,” an insightful person in the crowd angrily accused.
Chen Yanran had realized she was finished the moment the lights came on and saw so many people; her face turned pale, and she trembled uncontrollably as she collapsed to the ground.
Looking at Mrs. Xu, she charged over like a madwoman, “It was you, wasn’t it? You had everything planned all along, it was all you!”
Mrs. Xu stood among the crowd, looking at Chen Yanran who was blocked outside, her face ashen, “Chen Yanran, did you really think that your little schemes went unnoticed by us?
You instigated the Li family to set fire to our home and then conspired with Dong Wenzhong to poison and set fire to our workshop.
Was your aim to destroy the people of Xujia Village?
How can you be so venomous at such a young age? If you had any conscience at all, you wouldn’t have appeared here.
I gave you a chance, but you wasted it. Everyone, quickly tie up Chen Yanran and take her to the public security bureau tomorrow.”
When Mrs. Xu spoke, the crowd instantly pounced on Chen Yanran. Several discontented villagers slapped her hard across the face.
Especially Sun Dcao, who harbored naked hatred for Chen Yanran, not bothering to hide it in her eyes, “Chen Yanran, I always knew you were a slut, not only seducing my son, but now you even want to harm the entire village.
You vile woman, why don’t you just die, you should die along with that unborn child of yours.”
Sun Dcao looked at Chen Yanran wishing she could tear her into pieces.
“Da Cao, stop hitting her. Don’t kill someone in a fight; we could end up dealing with a death.
Even if you want revenge, you have to think about your son. If something happened to you, what would become of your son?”
Mentioning her son brought back some sanity to Sun Dcao.
The gazes directed at Sun Dcao were undeniably pitying. With the mention of Sun Dcao’s son, there was also a profound sigh.
How could a perfectly normal person suddenly become an idiot?
It was supposed to be a joyful occasion, but that incident occurred. Sun Dcao originally thought her son would return to his old self, but after the event, his mind became abnormal.

Now, Chen Yanran was lying in a wretched state on the ground, her hair disheveled, her clothes torn in several places, her face covered in scars, her gaze lost as she looked into the distance.
She couldn’t accept it. Why had Xu Ying become so clever and capable when she was clearly a fool, a fool who had nothing but beauty and the love of her family, just a silly woman in an attractive shell.
She had been manipulating Dong Wenzhong and Xu Ying, making them devotedly obedient to her. Why had all that changed?
“Chen Yanran, I’m going to kill you. It’s all your fault I got caught,” Dong Wenzhong was now on the verge of a breakdown. If he had married Xu Qingqing honestly, he could have lived a simple and quiet life.
But now, he and Chen Yanran had been caught red-handed bringing items into the workshop. If they were turned over to the police, his life would be over.
With a record, even if he could get out of jail, he probably wouldn’t be able to find a job for the rest of his life.
Half his life was destroyed just like that, Dong Wenzhong’s bloodshot eyes glaring at Chen Yanran, wishing he could flay her alive with the hatred in his gaze.
“Hahahaha, Dong Wenzhong, you’re such an idiot. If you had treasured Xu Ying and hadn’t been unfaithful, how could you have come to such an end?” Chen Yanran suddenly burst into hysterical laughter.
Then her face twisted, she cackled, pointing at everyone and cursing loudly, “You bunch of bumpkins, how dare you make me work in the fields for you, you’re all madmen, you’re beasts.
Wuuu~ You all bully me~ Where’s my baby? I want my baby~”
“Scoundrels, all of you get out.” At last, Chen Yanran lost her mind and was sent to a mental institution, with Xu Ying making sure she would never get out for the rest of her life.
Meanwhile, Dong Wenzhong was locked up for attempted murder. Although he could be released, his life was ruined.
He could not only forget about attending college, but during these politically strict times, he couldn’t find a job either.
Mrs. Xu felt a great relief when the two were arrested. She didn’t know why, but she had the sensation of having survived a great disaster.
Several arsonists from the Li family were also caught. These people begged Mr. Xu to let them go.
Mr. Xu might have been soft-hearted, but not Mrs. Xu. Her daughter had been provident indeed; they were planning to build a new house after the new year.
But after learning from Shengshun that the Li family intended to set fire to their place, her daughter had advised them to move their valuables to the Old Mansion and leave behind only things of little worth.
They just waited for the Li family to set the fire, so that afterward, they could get a new house for free. It was a very profitable deal, however you looked at it.
Mrs. Xu was now extremely happy, yet she had to pretend to be very angry: “You people talk so lightly, just a fire and our house is gone. Thank goodness we escaped; if not, we might have been killed in there.”
“That’s right, I’ve got a baby in my belly. My unborn child was almost killed by you, and you think just a few words will make us let you off? No way,” Eldest Sister-in-law Xu added her own complaints alongside Mrs. Xu.
Mrs. Xu gave her son a look, but the Eldest Son was too dim to understand. The second son got her message immediately and kneeled on the ground, bursting into tears.
“Mom, all our family’s savings were in there, now the house is gone, and so is the money… you have to compensate us for our loss, or you’re facing jail time.”
Just as Mr. Xu was about to speak, Eldest Sister-in-law Xu cried out “Aiyoo” while clutching her belly in agony, “My stomach hurts; I think I’m going into labor.”
Mrs. Xu immediately directed her husband, “Jianguo, hurry up and go borrow a car from your father. Don’t let anything happen to Eldest Son’s wife.”
Xu quickly helped his wife into the house.
After Mrs. Xu sent the men away, she looked fiercely at the captured men, “I’m telling you, there’s no forgiving this.
You all must be locked up; serve a few decades to teach you a lesson.
By the time you get out, your wives might have remarried with their own children, and you’ll come home to see your wives as someone else’s and your own children calling another man ‘dad’.
Serves you right for your wicked hearts, for not doing good.”
