Qin Fangci was reborn in Liantang Village. As soon as she opened her eyes, she heard her financially-motivated children arguing furiously over money.
Her eldest son cheered, "Mom's aw...
Chapter 178: Unkind Visitors
Xu Jiahuai was filled with hatred.
He must teach that bitch Li Yulan a lesson!
If he can't get her, he will destroy her. He has many ways to destroy a woman.
It was Li Yulan who forced him to do that. It was all Li Yulan’s fault!
Li Yulan's disappeared figure reappeared in Xu Jiahuai's sight at this moment.
Behind Li Yulan were the ferocious Yuan's Dadan and Erdan.
Xu Jiahuai's eyes gradually widened.
Li Yulan pointed her finger forward and said, "He was the one who lied to me and wanted to do bad things to me!"
Xu Jiahuai widened his eyes in horror and wanted to run.
But the pain in his lower body forced him to bend over and move back in small steps.
The beating was like a storm, making it impossible to withstand it.
Xu Jiahuai was able to fight back twice at first, but then his two hands were grabbed by Dadaner and Erdaner respectively.
Xu Jiahuai used his legs to clamp his important parts tightly, because Yuan not only beat him, but also scolded him.
"You dare to bully my sister-in-law? I will cripple you today and you won't have to suffer any more torture even when you enter the palace!"
"You bastard, you're worse than a dog. All those years of studying have gone to waste, and now you're doing something worse than a pig or a dog!"
Erdan held Xu Jiahuai's arm, and when he saw Xu Jiahuai trying to break free, he bit him with a roar.
Xu Jiahuai was in so much pain that tears started to flow from his already red eyes.
Yuan had stuffed a wooden stick in Li Yulan's hand in advance, and told her not to dirty her hands and to hit her with the stick.
Li Yulan was holding a wooden stick at this time, and when she saw Xu Jiahuai struggling and trying to hit someone, she hit him.
Xu Jiahuai was tortured so much that he had to lower his head and beg for mercy.
"I was wrong, Sister Li, I really know I was wrong. Please spare my life, Sister Li, I was just bewildered for a moment."
"Oh, you still want to treat me like a fool? You know you're wrong. My aunt has already said she won't marry you, and you still come to my house again and again. Don't you think we're easy to bully? I'm telling you, I'm not done with you for what happened today!"
Yuan refused to accept Xu Jiahuai's apology and punched him again.
Seeing that begging for mercy was of no use, Xu Jiahuai became anxious.
"I am a scholar with a good reputation, and you are just ordinary people. If you beat a scholar with a good reputation for no reason, you will be sued and beaten with a stick in the government office! If I die, the government will make you pay for my life!"
The ferocious momentum really frightened the Yuan family members.
Li Yulan dropped the wooden stick in her hand, pulled Dadaner and Erdaner back, and looked around, but there was no one.
"What are you yelling about? There's no one here. What evidence do you have to prove that we were the ones who injured you?"
Xu Jiahuai: "...Are the injuries on my body proof?"
"I said you got hurt by falling down! Second sister-in-law, right? He fell down down by himself!"
Yuan's eldest and second eldest nodded in unison, "Yes, you fell down by yourself!"
Xu Jiahuai showed his arm, "Then here's my teeth mark!"
"It was bitten by a dog!" Erdan responded immediately.
Li Yulan put her hands on her hips and said, "Xu Jiahuai, I'm telling you, how about we just let this matter go? Or how about we go into the city right now and you go and complain to the county magistrate about me! I'm telling you, I'm not afraid of you!"
The worst that could happen is they'd die together! Anyway, that bastard Xu Jiahuai shouldn't even think of bringing trouble to her family!
Yuan pushed her two sons back and said, "That's right, Dadan'er and Erdan'er, you two go back. Your aunt and I will go file a complaint. I want to ask the county magistrate, how can a scholar still be a scholar after doing such a shameless thing? The county magistrate will definitely strip him of his scholar status!"
Xu Jiahuai's face changed. Why didn't he mention this matter at the beginning? It was because Li Baisong was the county magistrate's junior brother, and the county magistrate was biased towards the Li family.
The Yuan family had been staring at Xu Jiahuai. When they saw his face change, they knew that what Yuan said was right. He had hit the snake in its most vulnerable spot, and they immediately became happy.
"Mom, we're going with you. We're witnesses. He bullied my aunt, so I bit him! The teeth marks are the evidence. He even tried to cheat our family out of money!"
Xu Jiahuai: “…”
Yuan pushed her two sons and said, "Go, go, go home quickly and be obedient. This matter is none of your business."
Dadan'er and Erdan'er straightened their chests and said, "We are the men of the family. We will not leave."
Erdan took out a small notebook from his arms. It was made by cutting rice paper and sewing it with needle and thread when Li Bosong was teaching them calligraphy. They carried it with them, along with a charcoal pencil.
"Xu Xiucai, please write a guarantee and put your fingerprints on it. We will pretend that what happened today never happened. What do you think?"
Xu Jiahuai didn't think it was very good.
He could be controlled by a little brat.
"Yulan, stop making trouble. In a few days, I'll ask a matchmaker to come to your house and marry you off in a sedan chair. How about that? A strange disease has appeared in the county. If you go there, you'll die. Your family has been arrested. Who knows, they might have contracted the disease by now. Yulan, think about it. If your family dies, I'll be your only support. How long are you going to keep making trouble with me?"
Li Yulan was so angry that her body was shaking, "You are talking nonsense!"
Yuan was also so angry that her face turned red, and Dadaner and Erdaner also clenched their fists.
The two stood up at the same time.
"We are the men of the Li family. Not to mention that my father, uncle, third uncle, and younger uncle will be safe, even if something happens to them, we are still here in the Li family. We will never let you bully our aunt!"
"Mom, we are not afraid of catching strange diseases. Let's tie him up and take him to the city to find my uncle. My uncle will definitely have a way to cure him!" Erdan said confidently.
"If we get a strange disease, we will be with Dad. At worst, we will die with Dad. We can't let him have an easy life anyway! We still have three and four brothers in our family. Big brother, even though you are stupid, you should go back with Mom. That way, we will have you to carry on the family line."
Erdan quickly arranged everything at home.
Li Yulan, Yuan Shi, and Dadan: "..."
Dadan was dissatisfied and started arguing with Erdan.
Yuan silently pulled out a rattan stick and walked forward, calling Li Yulan to help tie up Xu Jiahuai, who was beaten badly.
Xu Jiahuai wanted to shout, but his mouth was blocked.
Yuan turned around and slapped Dadan and Erdan, who were still arguing.
"You little brat, I need you to make the arrangements! Let's go and take the people back to the village chief. He must have a solution. Your grandma told us to guard the house and no one should go to the county town."
The old village chief who was about to face big trouble: "..."
I just know how to thank you.
…
Outside Guangyi County, a group of people stopped in a menacing manner.
A rider galloped forward and shouted, "Open the city gates! Jinzhou Prefecture's General Guo and Army Officer Qiu have arrived. Why don't you open the city gates quickly?"
The news was quickly delivered to Deng Wenyan.
Deng Wenyan put on his official uniform and brought people to the city gate to greet them.
"I pay my respects to General Guo and General Qiu."
The aura of ill will was so strong that it almost overflowed.
