But how could Zhao Changgui, who had been harmed by Shen Hongmei and could not do anything else, bow his head?

He touched the bruised corner of his mouth and said, "I hit my own wife, no one can give a damn!"

No matter how Zhao Guoping tried to persuade him quietly, Zhao Changgui still refused to admit his mistake to Shen Chunshu.

Seeing that he still looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water, Shen Chunshu became even more furious.

The anger in his chest made him feel stuck and unable to get out.

Being seen by so many people in Zhaojiawan getting beaten by his brother-in-law, he felt so embarrassed that he had even brought shame to his entire family.

He was so angry that he completely forgot what he had said to Wang Huilian before coming. He just wanted to save face, so he pointed at Zhao Changgui and yelled, "My daughter won't marry you anymore. I want to take her home now."

Then he angrily called Shen Limin: "Go, go to that room and carry your sister out, we will leave now."

"Okay, Dad." After hearing this, Shen Limin quickly went to the utility room.

Zhao Changgui, who had beaten Shen Hongmei half to death, suddenly stood up and blocked Shen Limin's way: "Who dares to carry away the woman I married with money?"

"You want to take her away? Fine, return the betrothal money I gave her. Otherwise, she will be a member of my Zhao family in life and a ghost of my Zhao family in death! No one can touch her."

How could Zhao Changgui allow the Shen family to take Shen Hongmei back?

Wouldn't he end up losing both his money and his life?

"You...you..." Shen Chunshu was so angry that he raised his finger and pointed at him, trembling all over, and couldn't say a word.

Seeing that he couldn't explain clearly, Shen Chunshu immediately turned the gun towards Zhao Guoping.

"I'm going to the town's Public Security Bureau to report you. I'm going to report you for taking human lives in Zhaojiawan. I'm going to report you...you're protecting each other."

Zhao Guoping, who had suffered an unexpected disaster, was almost amused by what Shen Chunshu said.

What do these two charges that Shen Chunshu made up have to do with him?

The one who beat people was Zhao Changgui, not him.

Moreover, the person was not dead, and she was the woman Zhao Changgui married in a formal ceremony. Even if she was taken away by the police, at most she would just be given a few lectures.

As for what Shen Chunshu said about officials protecting each other, that is even more unexplainable.

Ever since he came to Zhao Changgui's house, he has always spoken for the Shen family and advised Zhao Changgui.

Besides, what kind of official is Zhao Changgui?

There is no connection between him and Zhao Changgui, and it has nothing to do with officials protecting each other.

But Zhao Guoping still couldn't really let Shen Chunshu report to the town.

No matter what, the people of Zhaojiawan have been reported to the Ministry of Public Security, and when the higher-ups investigate, they will look for him, the village chief.

He will definitely not be able to escape a reprimand.

Maybe he will be singled out as an example for criticism at the end-of-year conference.

Although there may not be any substantial punishment, it is still embarrassing.

Furthermore, counting from the bottom up, he and Zhao Changgui have the same ancestor.

So for both public and private reasons, he couldn't let Chen Chunshu really cause trouble in the town.

Zhao Guoping asked the others to appease the three members of the Shen family first, while he dragged Zhao Changgui into the yard.

Facing this man who is already over 40, she pointed her finger at his head with a look of dismay: "Look at you, you are quite old, why are you trying to show off to your father-in-law?"

"I'm telling you, if they really make trouble in town, the Ministry of Public Security will definitely send people down to arrest you."

"Prison, do you think it's a place people can go to? Once you go in, you can't get out. Do you want to risk your life in there?"

Zhao Changgui is just a rough farmer. Even at his old age, he can barely read or write.

He is not afraid of fighting at all, but the idea that the people should not fight against the officials is deeply rooted in his bones.

So when he heard the village chief say he was going to take him away, he was a little scared.

But he was still a little unconvinced: "Chen Hongmei is my wife, is it illegal for me to beat my wife?"

Zhao Guoping rolled his eyes at him and said, "It's not against the law to beat a woman, but it would be against the law if you beat her to death!"

"It's fine if his parents don't pursue the matter, but if they do, you won't be able to escape no matter what you say."

"Think about yourself and your children. If you really go in, your life will be over!"

"If you really don't want to live with her anymore, then both families should sit down and have a good talk. You should ask for the money back or whatever you want. No matter what, you can't fight with your father-in-law!"

Zhao Guoping used both threats and scolding to finally calm Zhao Changgui's anger.

Zhao Changgui stood in the yard and thought for a long time. Finally, he squeezed out a word with frustration: "Pass."

In this situation, he was unwilling to let Shen Hongmei go home.

Since he married this woman, all the family money has been spent and he has lost all his face.

Now he couldn't even be a man.

Wouldn't it be too easy for her to just let her go?

What's more, Zhao Changgui was even more afraid that Shen Hongmei already knew that he was dying.

Once I divorce him, what if this matter gets out?

Thinking of the worse case scenario, if he could never get hard again in this life, he would have to let Chen Hongmei live with him as a widow for the rest of his life.

Who made her do this sin?

Seeing that Zhao Changgui still wanted to live with Shen Hongmei, Zhao Guoping patted him on the shoulder and persuaded him: "That's right, there is no couple without quarrels, go in and admit your mistake to your father-in-law, and this matter will be over."

"Take care of yourself in the future. Don't forget how Ping An's mother died. Do you still want to follow the old path?"

After saying that, seeing that Zhao Changgui did not refute, he dragged him back into the house.

Inside the room, the other people from Zhaojiawan were speaking well of Zhao Changgui to the people from the Shen family.

Although Chen Xiashu still looked angry, his tone was much better, and he could even say a few words back to the people around him.

So the atmosphere in the room was pretty good at this time.

After Zhao Guoping pulled Zhao Changgui in, he smiled and said to Shen Chunshu, "I just pulled Changgui out and gave him a good scolding. He married such a beautiful wife but didn't know how to cherish her. Is he crazy?"

"He knows he was wrong. He just promised me in the courtyard that he would treat Hongmei well in the future. I told him, your promise to me is useless. You have to tell Hongmei's father, right?"

As he spoke, he pulled Zhao Changgui to his side and pushed him, "Say it again to your father-in-law, what did you promise me just now in the yard?"

Zhao Changgui stood in front of Shen Chunshu, facing the people he had just fought with. Now he had to admit his mistake in front of so many people. He felt a little embarrassed.

When Shen Chunshu saw him standing in front of him, he was reluctant to speak, and the anger that had just subsided was about to break out again.

Zhao Guoping saw that things were not going well and immediately kicked Zhao Changgui: "Are you mute? Speak?"

"This is your father-in-law. What else can't you say? If you still want to think about it, just say it now."
