Her gaze became evasive, and her previous arrogance vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This just shows that your daughter-in-law didn’t willingly marry your son,\" Xia Liang continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Liang’s tone suddenly grew stern. \"Then tell me, where did you get this daughter-in-law?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cold sweat beaded on Zhang Cuihua’s forehead. She grabbed her son and tried to force her way through the crowd to escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn, her son’s wife might have been bought from human traffickers.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Definitely. Who would willingly let their daughter marry an idiot?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Isn’t this illegal?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding crowd began to murmur, and some even took out their phones, ready to call the police.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, her mentally handicapped son burst into tears, wailing, \"Ma, they know you bought me a wife! Boo hoo hoo...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You idiot! Shut your mouth!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Cuihua’s eyes widened, and she slapped her son across the face without a second thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A bright red palm print appeared on his cheek. He immediately clamped his mouth shut, too afraid to say another word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I never bought a wife from any trafficker! Stop spouting such nonsense!\" Zhang Cuihua shouted at the crowd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a textbook case of protesting too much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your own idiot son confessed! Just wait to be arrested,\" a bystander sneered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a dark expression, Zhang Cuihua insisted, \"I said I didn’t buy her, and that means I didn’t!\" She pushed her way out of the crowd and disappeared around a corner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Liang watched Zhang Cuihua’s retreating figure, his gaze gradually deepening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who knows Zhang Cuihua?\" he shouted to the crowd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master Xia, I do! That Zhang Cuihua is from the next village over, Zhang Family Village,\" said a man holding a hen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master Xia, what should we do next?\" asked a shop owner who had known Xia Liang for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What should we do? Call the police, of course,\" Xia Liang said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Cuihua definitely bought that girl from human traffickers. This kind of thing must be handed over to the Protectors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Xia Liang dialed the emergency number and truthfully reported the situation to the Protectors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing it was getting late, Xia Liang took Little Liu Lian back to the villa before driving toward Zhang Family Village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He might have ignored it if he hadn’t stumbled upon it, but now that he had, his duty as a Protector compelled him to investigate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Elsewhere.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Cuihua returned to the village with her handicapped son, striding toward her home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mom, my hand hurts,\" her son pleaded, trying to pull his hand from Zhang Cuihua’s painful grip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Endure it,\" Zhang Cuihua snapped, glaring at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as she reached the entrance of her adobe house, she heard her neighbor, Old Zhao, shouting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zhang Cuihua! What’s the big idea, putting a bear trap by your window? My dog, Old Huang, got his leg broken by it!\" Old Zhao yelled, his voice trembling with anger and distress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Should’ve killed your damn dog,\" Zhang Cuihua shouted back, spitting on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your trap crippled my dog! You’re going to pay for this!\" Old Zhao insisted, refusing to back down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His dog, Old Huang, often liked to wander into Zhang Cuihua’s yard to play, and he usually didn’t mind. But just a few moments ago, he had heard a pitiful yelp. Rushing outside, he found Old Huang caught in the trap, unable to move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Cuihua ignored Old Zhao and went straight into her yard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pushing open the main gate, Zhang Cuihua walked to a side room in the courtyard. Its door and window were locked tight. In front of them, a series of steel bear traps were laid out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her deceased husband had been a hunter in the mountains, which was why their family owned these kinds of traps designed for wild animals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Son, go stand guard at the gate,\" Zhang Cuihua ordered her son.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Cuihua carefully moved the traps aside, then took out a key and unlocked the wooden door. The sound of low sobbing from within made her brow furrow. Inside, sitting on the adobe kang bed, was a pale-skinned girl with round glasses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing Zhang Cuihua enter, the girl cried out, \"Auntie, please let me go. My father is very rich; he can give you whatever you want.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I bought you with my money, so why should I let you go? My family is relying on you to carry on our bloodline,\" Zhang Cuihua said scornfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despair filled the round-spectacled girl’s face. She had just been accepted into university and had a bright future ahead of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl prayed under her breath.Please, someone, save me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No one can save you,\" Zhang Cuihua sneered, pointing a finger at the girl, her face twisted like a Demon’s. \"Don’t think I don’t know you haven’t consummated the marriage with my son. Today, even if I have to use force, I’ll make my son take you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stay here and behave.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Zhang Cuihua slammed the door shut again, leaving the despairing girl alone. Just then, her handicapped son ran in, frantic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mom, there are a bunch of Uncle Protectors at the village entrance! Are they here to catch bad guys?\" her son asked, his nose running.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Protectors...\" Zhang Cuihua’s face went white. She clenched her teeth, grabbed a nearby hoe, and ran outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Cuihua ran onto the street, screaming, \"The Protectors are arresting innocent people! Everyone, come out and help!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At Zhang Cuihua’s call, a crowd of villagers rushed out, brandishing hoes, rakes, and brooms. They were all her relatives; in fact, half of Zhang Family Village was related to her in some way.\u003C\u002Fp>",941,"2026-06-02T09:13:12.456Z",1,"novelbin.me","25c0634aa1ee6e261631b4dd2bdae83e1a2170ed93c6e2541da0b72efcce90aa","i-become-the-richest-man-with-a-monthly-salary-o-chapter-441","i-become-the-richest-man-with-a-monthly-salary-o-chapter-97",981,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-become-the-richest-man-with-a-monthly-salary-o-cover.jpg"]
