Heng Yi bought the wedding dress, so he didn’t have the need to stay in the county.
However, thinking about the children at home and Han Qiao, he went to buy pastries.
The pastries in the county town were more exquisite, sweet, and delicate than those in Ninghe Town. It had candied fruits and preserved fruits that were not available in their town. The melon seeds and peanuts were even more fragrant.
In fact, Heng Yi didn’t understand these complications. That was what the shopkeeper said, and he even let him try it.
He was a boorish old man and could not taste anything. If the shopkeeper said it was good, then it should be good.
He would buy one catty each.
…..
The shopkeeper wanted to say that this dumbo was quite rich.
He bought a few types of candied fruits, preserved fruits, and snacks.
He also wanted a beautiful wooden box that was neatly packed.
“Take care, sir. Please come again next time.” The waiter politely sent him off.
You really can’t judge a book by its cover.
He didn’t look particularly rich, but he was generous.
After getting into the carriage, White Tea asked, “Master Heng, are we going straight back to West Mountain Village? Or do you want to go to Ninghe Town?”
“Go to Ninghe Town. You can’t go back on your word!”

White Tea almost burst out laughing.
Many people thought that Heng Yi was just saying it, and even Sun Yixi didn’t take it seriously. Even when he went to the yamen to report it, the officials asked him why he only hit him and not others. Sun Yixi was rendered speechless.
He stuffed some silver into his pockets, but the official did not work after receiving the silver, nor did he patrol the grocery store.
He had called a doctor yesterday and the doctor had come to take a look. He said that it was just a normal bruise and that his bones were fine.
The pain would be gone in a few days.
What angered Sun Yixi the most was that he had lost face. He was the manager of a grocery store, but he was beaten up by a hunter on the street. He had no place to seek justice.
“Son, do you think Heng Yi will come again?” Old Mrs. Sun asked.
She regretted telling others that Heng Yi and Han Qiao were having an affair, and that people had something on her.
Moreover, it was fortunate that a few old women and daughters-in-law had heard it when he said it, so it was only possible for them to spread the news.
She could not deny it even if she wanted to.
“No…”
Before Sun Yixi could finish his sentence, someone shouted from the shop in front, “Shopkeeper Sun, is Shopkeeper Sun here?”

Sun Yixi was afraid that someone was here to buy something, so he immediately got up and went to the shop.
As soon as he arrived at the shop, he saw Heng Yi come in from outside. Without saying anything, he dragged him out, pinned him to the ground, and gave him another beating.
Heng Yi didn’t say anything. He kept punching Sun Yixi, making him scream in pain.
When Old Lady Sun and Lady Liu came out, they were stopped by people who were watching the show.
“Old Lady Sun, is Heng Yi really having an affair with the Han Family?”
“Did you catch them in bed?”
“Did you see it with your own eyes?”
How could Old Mrs. Sun respond to that?
She was simply making this up.

The onlookers saw that she didn’t say anything, and Heng Yi didn’t ask.
Usually, only those who didn’t feel guilty would be so calm.
Sun Yixi would definitely be furious.
“That’s right. Old Lady Sun, can you tell us about it?”
What did he say?
Say my ass.
After hitting Sun Yixi, Heng Yi said, “I need an explanation and justice. If you can’t explain, I don’t mind going to the yamen.”
It was said that barefoot people were not afraid of wearing shoes, and those who were arrogant were afraid of risking their lives.
Heng Yi only said a few words, but Sun Yixi, Old Lady Sun, and Lady Liu were already scared.
Madam Liu tugged at Old Lady Sun’s sleeve. “Mother, tell me.”
Did Old Lady Sun want to say it? She didn’t want to say it and didn’t dare to.
She bit her lips tightly.
His entire body was trembling.
He stared at Heng Yi.
Heng Yi snorted. “Then let’s meet at the yamen.”
“White Tea, let’s go!”
“Yes!” White Tea answered. After Heng Yi got on the carriage, he drove it to the yamen.

Old Lady Sun, Sun Yixi, and Lady Liu were dumbfounded.
The onlookers were also dumbfounded.
He went to the yamen just like that?
When Heng Yi arrived at the yamen, he directly accused Old Lady Sun of slandering him and his fiancee, Han Qiao.
Before Han Qiao and Sun Yiming separated, they only knew each other and weren’t familiar with each other.
The reason they got together was because he felt sorry for the Han family. It was also because they saw that she was an excellent woman in West Mountain Village and had a good impression of her. That was why he decided to marry her.
Heng Yi was a man of few words. Whether it was those who knew him or those who didn’t, they could all testify for him.
He went to the yamen to complain. After Old Lady Sun was taken away by the yamen, Sun Yixi rushed to the yamen in a panic.
Many people surrounded the yamen.
The Zhencheng felt that these people were really too full. They were living a good life, but they were spreading rumors and causing trouble.
“Regarding Heng Yi’s lawsuit against Sun Niu, we’ll give each of you ten strokes first!”
Ten strokes didn’t matter to Heng Yi.
However, to Old Lady Sun, it was indeed fatal.
It had been many years since she had done any heavy, rough, or tiring work.
“Sir, sir, this commoner pleads, this commoner pleads.”
“Speak!” The deputy shouted in a low voice.
Old Lady Sun trembled in fear. “It’s just this commoner’s nonsense. I couldn’t accept this Han woman divorcing my son and getting married again.”
“Besides, besides, we didn’t start this matter first. It was Old Man Heng who came and said that we could do this. He wanted to ruin their reputation first.”
“As long as their reputation is ruined, the two of them might dislike each other and break off the engagement.”
Heng Yi looked at Old Lady Sun with a dark gaze.
Heng Yi was surprised and shocked that Old Man Heng was involved.
…..
“Sir, I am not lying. It is old man Heng…”
When Sun Yixi arrived, he said the same thing as Old Lady Sun.
However, after being summoned, Old Man Heng cried out, “Sir, I’m innocent! Sir, how could I say that about Heng Yi? He is a dull and honest person. How could he have an affair with someone else? He consulted his mother and me about his marriage with the Han family. He even invited Matchmaker Wang to the Han family in West Mountain Village to propose marriage.”
All in all, Old Man Heng denied it.
Regardless of whether it was true or false, it pushed the Sun family to the forefront.
“My lord, my lord, we didn’t lie. My lord, you can ask our neighbors. Someone must have seen Old Man Heng come that day.”
Sun Yixi hurriedly said.
However, he was disappointed. No one in the neighborhood saw him.
Old man Heng was a cunning man, and he was especially careful that day, avoiding everyone.
There wasn’t much to investigate, but after Old Lady Sun and Sun Yixi’s explanation, Old Lady Sun had already established solid evidence to spread rumors about Han Qiao and Heng Yi.
Since Heng Yi had reported it to the yamen, it meant that there was a victim.
Old Lady Sun was beaten ten times, and the one that should have fallen on Heng Yi was instead beaten on Sun Yixi.
“Heng Yi, do you want compensation?”
“I don’t want any compensation. I just want her to stand on the street and explain everything clearly.”
This matter had come to an end before Han Qiao knew anything about it.
The Sun mother and son were beaten. Old Lady Sun stood at the door of the grocery store and told everyone that she was slandering Han Qiao and Heng Yi. She had evil intentions.
Her butt hurt and she was embarrassed. She had only said these words in front of a few people when Old Mrs. Sun’s eyes rolled back and she fainted.
In a carriage not far away, Heng Yi said to White Tea, “let’s go home..”
