After forty years of marriage, she raised several stepchildren, put them through school, bought them houses for marriage, and even helped raise their grandchildren. She served her aging and ill hus...
They glanced at Song Yinhua for a moment, then at the group of people pulling her hair and twisting her face.
Some villagers tried to speak up to stop it, but someone nearby secretly nudged them, signaling them not to interfere.
Da Zhuang's wife's family brought them here to catch them in the act of adultery, insisting that Song Yinhua was the one who was having an affair. But now Yinhua is standing here perfectly fine.
This is clearly a deliberate attempt by them to harm Yinhua.
As it turned out, Yinhua was unharmed, but no one knows who was harmed.
Someone recognized the curly hair.
"That girl has a perm, could she be Qiu Xue?" a villager watching the commotion asked in a low voice.
"How could that be? I heard Qiu Xue is Tang Su'e's goddaughter..." Before he could finish speaking, Wang Xiaowei's wife, who was exhausted from fighting, spoke up.
"Look at this bitch's face! Watch out, she might steal your men later!"
Song Qiuxue's face was turned around, facing everyone directly.
The entire Tang family was gloating, especially Tang Dafei, who was the most excited.
All the villagers stood there, stunned.
The Tang family cheered.
At this moment, Song Yinhua asked loudly, "What are you all doing making such a racket in my house?"
The villagers blocking the way instinctively moved aside. When Tang Youliang saw Song Yinhua, he immediately turned around and saw that it was Song Qiuxue on the bed. He quickly shouted, "Dafei, that's Qiuxue!"
When the Tang family members, who were gloating, saw Song Yinhua, they were all stunned and quickly looked at the bed.
Zhou Qiaoyun grabbed Song Qiuxue's hair tightly.
Song Qiuxue's face, body, arms, and legs were covered in bruises.
I don't know if it was from being hit, pinched, and kicked recently, or from sitting down last night.
Old Tang rushed over, grabbed a blanket, and covered Song Qiuxue with it, yelling at Zhou Qiaoyun, "Get your hands off her right now!"
Zhou Qiaoyun slowly released Song Qiuxue's hair and mocked, "So it's Qiuxue, huh? Girls who've lived in the provincial capital are different, they really know how to have fun! Seven or eight men serving you in one night, it really opens the eyes of us country bumpkins..."
Old Tang slapped Zhou Qiaoyun on the head.
Zhou Qiaoyun was stunned by the blow.
From the moment she married into her husband's family, no matter how much they wronged or bullied her, even if they forced her newborn daughter into their urine to drown, she would still make a huge scene and smash everything she could in the house, but her father-in-law never dared to lay a finger on her.
At most, Tang Youliang will deal with her.
This was the first time her father-in-law had hit her in public.
“Dafei’s grandpa, you hit me for Erzhuang’s girl?” Zhou Qiaoyun asked. “Dafei, you saw it all. Your grandpa hit your mother for Erzhuang’s girl. In your grandpa’s eyes, you are not as good as your sixth aunt’s Yunyun, nor are you as good as Erzhuang’s girl.”
Tang Dafei's dissatisfaction with his grandfather deepened.
He knew from a young age that his grandfather favored his cousin Yunyun, but he never expected that in his grandfather's heart, he was not as good as Song Erzhuang's daughter.
The whole family knew that Grandpa hated Song Erzhuang's family the most.
So that's why I don't like him!
Old Tang didn't bother to explain to Tang Dafei and shouted at Tang Youliang, "Youliang, quickly drive all the villagers away!"
"What's going on?" Song Yinhua asked loudly.
Several naked, unfamiliar men were still inside.
"Who are you? What are you doing in my house? What did you do to Qiu Xue?"
The group of strange men, following Tang Dafei's instructions, said, "We're her lovers. She invited us over last night..."
"Shut up, all of you!" Old Man Tang snapped.
Qiao Guilan and Song Erzhuang arrived at this time.
It took some time to wake up my son and daughter-in-law so they could come over together.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Qiao Guilan asked as soon as she arrived. "Did something happen to Qiu Xue?"
The villagers remained silent, but their expressions were all strange.
When Song Yinhua saw that her family had arrived, she said, "Mom and Dad, my great-uncle's family brought the whole village to catch them in the act of adultery. They found these men sleeping with Qiu Xue, and my great-uncle's family beat Qiu Xue until she was covered in bruises."
Qiao Guilan almost fainted.
The family had worked so hard to raise a child who could go to university in the provincial capital, and she was hoping to enjoy a comfortable life there in the future.
Song Erzhuang asked Old Man Tang, "Uncle, when you came to our house for the wedding last night, you said we should get along well and let bygones be bygones. Why are you causing trouble again today?"
Old Tang was speechless. The thought of his granddaughter being bullied by a group of thugs that Da Fei had hired made his heart bleed.
Song Yinhua said, "Dad, these men said that Qiu Xue invited them over last night."
Old Tang retorted angrily, "Nonsense! Qiu Xue is a virtuous and self-respecting girl, how could she do such a thing!"
"Baogen, call the authorities right away!" Song Yinhua said. "These people must have broken into the house and bullied Qiuxue last night. We can't let them get away."
Upon hearing that the authorities had been notified, several unfamiliar men grabbed their clothes and tried to flee.
Some didn't even have time to grab their clothes, running outside in just their underwear.
Song Baogen hurriedly grabbed one of the escapees, shouting, "Catch them! We can't let them get away!"
The other villagers rushed forward and captured all seven people.
Baogen said to Li Wenxiu, "Wife, hurry up and go to the convenience store to call the authorities..."
"We can't report it!" Old Tang said hurriedly.
Everyone turned to look at Old Man Tang.
Song Yinhua asked, "Qiuxue was bullied and suffered such a great injustice, why can't you report it to the authorities and have these people arrested? Uncle, you're protecting these beasts who bullied Qiuxue, did you hire them?"
Everyone in the village knew that the two families had a feud.
Tang Suxiang and her family had a history of ruining the lives of the Zhuang girls.
Song Baogen also began to suspect his old uncle. He punched the stranger and demanded to know who had sent him.
The stranger insisted that Song Qiuxue had seduced them and invited them over.
"Wife, report to the authorities immediately!" Song Baogen said to Li Wenxiu.
When the group of strangers heard that they were going to report to the authorities, some of them became frightened.
"Tang Dafei gave us the money to come!"
Once one person confessed, everyone else followed suit.
"Tang Dafei told us to come and deal with Song Yinhua. He said he would bring people to catch her in the act of adultery early this morning and ruin her so that she would never be able to hold her head up again."
“It was dark last night, and we didn’t know that the person who came in wasn’t the one we were looking for. She begged us for mercy last night, saying that she was Song Qiuxue, but we thought it was just an excuse.”
All the villagers who had been watching the commotion turned to look at Tang Dafei, which startled him greatly.
"My grandpa told me to do it." Tang Dafei directly betrayed his grandpa.
Since the master favors his cousin and Song Erzhuang's daughter, then he can't be blamed.
Zhou Qiaoyun and Tang Youliang shielded their son, fearing that he would be beaten by Song Erzhuang's family.
Enraged, Song Erzhuang roared at Old Man Tang, "Uncle, why do you always try to harm my daughter? Tell me, why? If you don't explain yourself clearly today, I...I...you...you won't leave here alive!"
"What? You want to kill me?" Old Tang snapped at Song Erzhuang. "I'm an old man, if you beat me up and cause me any harm, you'll go to jail too!"
"Uncle, what is it you're doing?" Song Erzhuang couldn't understand at all. "Our two families have no grudges against each other. You're even my elder brother's father-in-law. You used to have a good relationship with my family. Why are you always causing trouble for my family now?"
