"This..."
Ma Yan was momentarily at a loss for words.
"Second aunt, something bad has happened to Brother Yun Zhu. He is currently facing off with the people from the Yun Gang and Yun Shan's family at the village chief's place."
Little Hu, who stayed next door, ran into the Yun family's front door in a hurry and told them about Yun Zhu's whereabouts. This also interrupted Yun Qiao and Ma Yan's discussion about whether he should go to school.
After all, in comparison to the matter of studying, the conflict between Yun Zhu and the others was more urgent.
"Little Hu, hurry up and lead the way. We'll go over and take a look."
Yun Qiao was also anxious.
He knew that this matter was very important to Yun Zhu. He still cared a lot about his younger brother, and the matter seemed serious. He quickly urged their neighbor to lead the way.
"Yes, Brother Yun Qiao."
Little Hu agreed, and the bunch hurriedly rushed to the village chief's door.
Just as they reached the village chief's door, Ma Yan heard Yun Zhu's cries. The fight inside sounded very intense.
Ma Yan was so anxious that she forgot to knock on the door. She pushed the door open and entered the village chief's house right away.
Yun Zhu was initially crying and submitted to the rest. However, as he saw his parents, he seemed to have found his backup.
"Father, mother, save me. They want me to pay for it and I don't have any money."
Yun Zhu cried and pleaded. Seeing that Yun Lin and Ma Yan had arrived, he turned to them for help instead.
"What kind of huge mistake did our son make? Is it worth it for you adults to surround a child and torment him like this?"
Ma Yan quickly hugged Yun Zhu and shielded him behind her.
"I'm too embarrassed to even say it out loud. You should ask your son what he did."
Liu Fang's attitude remained adamant. As she spoke, she widened her eyes and looked very angry. "What did you do?" Ma Yan turned around and asked Yun Zhu.
"I... I... I wasn't..."
Yun Zhu stuttered as he struggled to find an excuse.
"He stole food from us and Yun Gang's family. I'm afraid that he is just too embarrassed to say it himself."
Yun Yang spoke in Yun Zhu's stead.
"Yun Zhu, tell me what happened!"
Ma Yan shouted at Yun Zhu. She could not believe that Yun Zhu would do such a shameless thing.
"I... I just ate some chocolate and drank some milk... 'Yun Zhu's voice became softer as he spoke.
When Yun Lin and Ma Yan saw Yun Zhu like this, they instantly knew what had happened.
"You... how could you do such a thing?"
Yun Lin was very angry. If rumors about this started to spread, how could he face his fellow villagers?
Ma Yan was also a little angry, but she still wanted to protect Yun Zhu.
Ma Yan immediately collapsed on the ground and started to cry.
"Village chief, the child did it unintentionally. You don't understand how hard life has been for us!"
The guilt-tripping and pretentious act had always been Yun Lian's strength. These two were indeed mother and daughter.
"We don't have any of the things they enjoyed, and we don't own as much as they do! Even so, they are even so stringent with us. This happened because they forced us!"
Ma Yan continued to cry.
Yun Xi sneered from the side. Only Ma Yan would be able to say such a thing. There was definitely no one else as shameless.
"Your family's lacking has nothing to do with us. This is all because your child has not been properly taught and committed theft at such a young age."
Liu Fang still remembered how Yun Zhu spoke ill of her earlier. She wanted to return the favor to Ma Yan.
"Yes, my husband and I are lacking. However, shouldn't family members help each other? If it wasn't for them showing off, this child wouldn't have done such a thing."
Ma Yan completely shifted the blame. It became the fault of others when Yun Zhu was the one who stole! It was simply unreasonable.
