After Shu Xi and Ye Lin picked up Mrs. Lan at the airport, they immediately rushed back to the village.

"Grandma, are you hungry? How about we eat something on the way before going back to the village?" Shu Xi asked while driving.

Mrs. Lan said, "No need. Your mother Lin has already calculated the time. If we go back too late, she will be worried again."

Shu Xi thought that this seemed to be the case.

Mrs. Lan added: "I already had something to eat on the plane, so I'm not very hungry."

"OK then."

When the car was halfway through the drive, the tire was punctured, so Shu Xi got out of the car to change the tire herself.

Because she was afraid that Lin's mother would worry about them, she asked Ye Lin to call Lin's mother.

But no one answered Lin Ma's phone.

Shu Xi quickened her movements and said, "We have to speed up. I'm worried that something might happen to Mother Lin."

Ye Lin said, "Could it be that Aunt Lin was out cooking, so she didn't answer the call?"

Shu Xi felt that this was not impossible.

She said, "Okay, I'll call her later."

Ten minutes later, Shu Xi was driving while Ye Lin was responsible for calling Lin's mother.

Mother Lin still didn't answer the phone.

Shu Xi stepped on the accelerator and increased the speed.

Considering Mrs. Lan in the car, Shu Xi did not increase the speed to the fastest.

Mrs. Lan knew that Shuxi was worried about Lin's mother, so she said to her, "Xixi, don't worry about me, go find Xiaolin quickly."

Shu Xi glanced at Mrs. Lan in the rearview mirror and decided to speed up.

It would normally take an hour to go back halfway, but Shu Xi returned to the village in half an hour.

When Shu Xi parked the car, she found Ye Lin and Mrs. Lan each holding one of the handles, their faces looking pale.

"Are you guys okay?"

Ye Lin was the first to come back to her senses. She shook her head: "No...it's okay."

Mrs. Lan couldn't help it and started vomiting as soon as she opened the car door.

Shu Xi was about to go and care about her, but she waved her hand at Shu Xi and said, "Don't worry about me, go see Mother Lin."

Shu Xi hesitated for a moment, but still ran towards the house.

"Mother Lin..."

The house was filled with a burning smell, but Mother Lin was not there.

Shu Xi was afraid that a fire might accidentally occur later, so she quickly cooled down.

At this time, Ye Lin came in with Madam Lan. When she saw Shu Xi, she asked anxiously, "Where's Madam Lin?"

Shu Xi shook her head: "I don't know, I looked around but couldn't find her."

Shu Xi added: "She must have left suddenly while cooking. Her phone was on the stool, and everything in the pot was burnt."

Mrs. Lan frowned slightly, and a hint of worry flashed in her cloudy eyes.

"She wouldn't leave it like that. I'm worried something happened to her," said Mrs. Lan.

Shu Xi thought so too.

Just then, Jinlianpo limped over.

Seeing Shuxi, she said excitedly: "Xixi, you are back, go and save her."

Grandma Jinlian was referring to Mother Lin.

Shu Xi grabbed Jin Lian Po's hand and said, "Where's Aunt Lin? Where did she go?"

Jinlian Po said: "Those people asked her to move her son's grave under the pretext of building a road, but in fact there is no road there and the villagers will never take that road.

Those people just want to take advantage of the opportunity to make money."

If they build more roads, they can get more money. Those people have lost their conscience and are bullying others!

When Mother Lin heard about this suddenly, she rushed out to argue with those people without having time to do anything else.

Grandma Jinlian was worried about Mother Lin, but as an old woman, she really didn't have the energy to take care of these things. Those people were so cruel that they might even bully her.

So she could only keep an eye on Shuxi's situation, and inform her immediately when she saw her coming back.

Shu Xi's eyes darkened slightly, and she said to Jin Lian Po: "Thank you for coming to tell me this despite your inconvenience. You can rest here for a while, and I will bring Mother Lin back safely."

"Okay, good boy, go ahead."

Shu Xi left in a hurry without saying anything more.

When Shu Xi rushed to the grave of Lin Ma's son, Lin Ma was sitting on the ground with a pale face. Her head was scarlet and blood was flowing from her forehead, staining her eyes red.

"Mother Lin!"

Shu Xi shouted and rushed towards Lin Ma.

"Go away!"

Shu Xi roared at the villagers holding hoes.

When those people saw Shu Xi, they were stunned.

I didn't expect that her small body had such explosive power. The moment she roared, a sense of fear surged in people's hearts.

However, he soon realized that Shu Xi was just a woman.

There are so many of them, would they be afraid of a woman like her?

Someone immediately said, "Two women, get out of the way, get out of the way!"

As soon as Shu Xi came to Lin Ma's side, Lin Ma tightly grasped Shu Xi's hand and said to Shu Xi: "Xi Xi, don't worry about me, you must protect him."

Even though he had passed away, she couldn't let him have rest in peace even after death.

Shu Xi said to Lin Ma: "Don't worry, I won't let them succeed."

Shu Xi said to those people: "You'd better understand the situation. Now I am paying for you to build the road. If I make a phone call, you won't get any money!"

The man was so angry at Shu Xi that he laughed. He said, "Why do you, a woman, want to steal the limelight? You will get married in the future and won't be able to leave your name in the family tree. What are you so proud of?"

Those people thought they had succeeded, so they spoke their minds without hesitation.

Shu Xi looked at these people, sneered, and said, "So that's what you think?"

The man continued fearlessly: "It's not just me, everyone thinks so. You are just stupid, don't blame others."

It is precisely because of this that they unscrupulously brought people here to demolish the grave of Lin Ma’s son.

"You people, who bully others, will not die a good death." Mother Lin said gritting her teeth.

"You bitch, don't think you're wronged. You also hurt our brother."

The man stepped aside, and Shu Xi realized that there were several people lying on the ground. They didn't look much better than Lin Ma, with their heads broken and bleeding as well.

Mother Lin snorted coldly: "You deserve it! Who told you to dig on my son's grave!"

"This is our village's land, we can do whatever we want with it. Why do you, an outsider, have any say in this?"

Mother Lin gritted her teeth and said, "I bought this piece of land!"

"Without any evidence, who would believe it?"

The man looked at Lin Ma, with a gleam of pride in his eyes.

Looking at the determined look in these people's eyes, Shu Xi had a bad feeling in her heart.
