Chapter 166 Fan Yaqing is a liar and a complete fraud, utterly untrustworthy.
The mute old woman has lived quietly in Chenjiatun for so many years, and no one has paid attention to her. In recent years, she has only occasionally left the village to visit her daughter.
Because she couldn't speak, she didn't interact much with the villagers. She also couldn't read, so she could only express herself through gestures, or her daughter would help her express herself.
But she wasn't deaf and mute in the usual sense; she could hear and understand others, she just couldn't express herself. When her mother first arrived at the pig farm, Tong Yuheng was puzzled because she could hear, thinking she couldn't be born deaf and mute. Now it seems there really is something wrong with her.
The mute old woman had been frequently visiting the place where the Tong family did their morning exercises lately, mainly to collect dry branches and leaves for firewood. However, she didn't approach them directly, but rather observed them intentionally or unintentionally.
Just because you observe me doesn't mean I won't observe you. Tong Yuheng began using the space to track her, and after several days, she finally discovered that the mute old woman was not mute at all; she could speak!
She discovered this when her daughter came to visit her. That night, her daughter didn't leave, and the two of them were whispering in the house, and they were actually using the Japanese language!
That confirms that they weren't hiding here because of the Tong family; perhaps monitoring their family was just a side task. So, what was it that made them stay here more than a decade ago?
The original owner didn't understand Japanese, but Tong Yuheng from the previous life did. Listening to their conversation, she finally understood why her grandfather had been kidnapped.
After the health of several elderly men in important positions improved, the enemy agents in Yan City discovered the existence of the pills. Upon closer examination, they deduced from subtle clues that Tong Anfu was the one who supplied the pills.
So they contacted the mute old woman, a hidden informant who had been working for many years, and gave her a temporary task: to provide them with information about the Tong family in order to obtain the special medicine prescription from Tong Anfu by kidnapping him.
They believed that this prescription was extremely valuable, and that the Tong family might have more than just this one type of pill.
Recently, a type of traditional Chinese medicine with no side effects has appeared in Yan City. Its main function is to enhance male virility and improve male sexual function, and it's selling very well privately. Upon closer investigation, it was discovered that a martial arts practitioner was involved, acting through a young man from the Zheng family.

They also bought some through acquaintances, but couldn't figure out the ingredients. So they set their sights on Zheng Yunqing, who was selling these pills. However, Zheng Yunqing was cunning and had connections, so they didn't dare to act rashly.
Zheng Yunqing has intricate connections with the Li and Liu families, among others. The person he contacted is elusive, but they suspect that person is also somewhat related to the Tong family.
The time that person appeared in Yan City was very close to that of Tong Yuheng. They suspected that these pills were also related to Tong Anfu, because he was helping the old man recuperate at the Liu family at that time. Perhaps he gave this medicine to Zheng Yunqing through the mysterious Dong Wuyou.
Their logical reasoning skills were quite strong; they almost guessed the truth. At the same time, they became very interested in the health-preserving pills and the aphrodisiac pills.
Because these pills had huge market potential, it was worthwhile to arrest Tong Anfu. So, after several days of observation, the mute old woman provided information that Tong Anfu could indeed produce traditional Chinese medicine pills.
Her daughter, Juying, was in charge of arranging for people to kidnap Tong Anfu directly, and even wanted to take him back to her country by sea.
This led to the battle in the woods early that morning, but they underestimated the Tong family's strength, suffering heavy losses and almost being exposed.
"Ito, you've made a huge mistake this time! You didn't even investigate and found out they had such strong fighting capabilities!" The young woman was actually her superior; the mute old woman was under her command!
"I'm sorry, Miss Juying, I only thought they were practicing ordinary military boxing. Now it seems they might be very skilled ancient martial arts practitioners!" The old woman's voice was hoarse and extremely unpleasant, probably because she rarely spoke.
"Be careful lately, don't let them find out. I won't be coming often, send me a telegram if anything happens. Also, have you found any information about those things lately?"
"There's still no news. I've checked several villages nearby, and there's nothing suspicious. Could the information be wrong?" the mute old woman asked.
"Impossible! The message Inoue sent before his death couldn't be false. His loyalty is beyond question!" the young woman said.
"Yes, I will continue the search!"
Tong Yuheng confirmed that they were hidden enemy agents and immediately asked Li Chengsong to investigate them, and also told Liu Fengyi about this information.
These two have been hiding in this area for over a decade, and their ambitions are far from small. What exactly are they looking for?
After receiving news from Tong Yuheng, Li Chengsong began a detailed investigation into the mute old woman's daughter, Lin Juying, while the mute old woman's case was handed over to Tong Yuheng.
She discovered that the woman did not look old and frail at all; in fact, she moved quickly and was not as old and weak as she appeared.
Tong Yuheng discovered that when her grandfather was not at the clinic, the mute woman actually climbed over the wall at night and searched the entire small room and a half, but naturally found nothing.
In Yan City, some news had emerged, and some enemy spies hiding among the leaders had been arrested. However, they hadn't yet figured out the enemy spies along the line with the mute old woman's daughter, and Tong Yuheng couldn't arrest her, so he continued to keep a close watch.
At this point, Fan Yaqing started causing trouble again. She personally spread rumors, trying to pair her cousin and Tong Yuheng together. She even wrote a letter to Li Chengsong, describing the matter in great detail, including the time and place of their past dates.
If Li Chengsong hadn't conducted a thorough investigation, he would have been completely fooled by her seemingly plausible rumor. But what she wrote was utter nonsense; he didn't believe a single word!
Letting her spread rumors like this isn't in Tong Yuheng's nature. Hasn't Zhou Manman started to hate her? Then let them fight even more fiercely!
Making trouble isn't Fan Yaqing's exclusive right!
Soon, Wang Li's letter severing ties with Fan Yaqing reached Zhou Manman's hands. In it, he listed the results of his investigation, proving that Fan Yaqing was a liar and a fraud, and completely untrustworthy!
Zhou Manman edited these contents and wrote a big-character poster for Fan Yaqing, which was then posted on the wall of the brigade headquarters, demanding that she be criticized and educated. In no time, gossip about Fan Yaqing spread like wildfire!
Compared to the rumors she spread about Tong Yuheng, this one was far more sensational and captivating. When Tong Yuheng was asked about this former classmate's deeds, she hesitated and deliberately refused to speak, claiming that she hadn't interacted much with her and didn't know anything about it.
Her behavior showed that she was kind-hearted, did not gossip behind people's backs, and her character was recognized by the villagers.
