The apocalypse descended, and after enduring numerous hardships, Chu Xi lost all her loved ones, barely surviving.
Fifteen years into the apocalypse, accustomed to being low-key and cautious,...
For an enemy or foe, it is better to live miserably than to die happily, so that you can make up for the wrong things you have done to me!
So even though Shi Xiu looked miserable after being beaten on the face, the damage was actually not that serious, and Chu Xi was holding back on it on purpose.
For someone like Shi Xiu, physical blows are far less important than mental torture. The best punishment is to swell her face, which she values most, and embarrass her in front of her beloved.
Didn't you see that Chu Xi's few words, which were specifically tailored to the situation, had already made the shameless Shi Xiu feel completely disheartened...
I guess I can behave myself for a while, no worries!
Looking at Shi Xiu who had lost his fighting ability, Chu Xi glanced at everyone in the Shi family indifferently.
"What's the matter? Tell me now. Are you still waiting for me to invite you to lunch?"
Captain Shi was speechless for a moment, and Old Man Shi's gloomy face became even darker. The others also lowered their heads and remained silent.
Finally, it was Captain Shi who spoke. He first glanced at Old Man Shi. His cousin was a calculating man. He would not give in when he was right, and would make a fuss when he was wrong.
He had been shrewd and calculating all his life, not even letting his own son off the hook, but now he was in this situation, and he was being tricked into doing it himself...
They specifically summoned him here, probably to settle scores with him and get some compensation, but your family isn't in the right either. Forget it, just consider it a good cop thing. The process still needs to be followed, and we can't do anything about the outcome...
"My third daughter-in-law, look, we are all one family today. We are one family and we don't talk behind each other's backs."
"We've fought and quarreled. After all, your sister-in-law is still young and her temper is not mature enough. You should also be understanding."
"Here's my advice. Look at how badly your sister-in-law got hit in the face. It's probably going to cost a lot of money. Your mother-in-law fainted from anger again... And your old house was robbed a while ago..."
Thinking of this, Captain Shi was also drunk. What happened to the old Shi family? It seemed that since Shi Peng separated from them, they had not had a good life. There were ghosts and thieves, and the whole family was still restless...
Wouldn't you want to live without Shi Peng's allowances? You're still plotting against Shi Peng's wife all day long.
"Let's just pity them and help them. Let's cover their medical expenses first. They're probably so poor they can barely make ends meet..."
Chu Xi wanted to laugh when she saw Captain Shi's helpless and sympathetic eyes. He was also an old fox.
I was dragged here to uphold justice, but I also understood the situation, so I could only speak from an emotional perspective. After all, on the surface, they were still a family...
"First of all, we've split up, and everyone knows that. We've also never stopped receiving our monthly pension payments..."
"Secondly, Shi Xiu has slandered my reputation for no reason. No one would tolerate this, right? If he really does nothing, there must be something fishy going on..."
"Besides, if a son is not well educated, it is the fault of his father. Shi Xiu is such a grown-up girl, yet she shamelessly pesters Liao Zhiqing."
"I won't say any more about that. Justice is in the hearts of the people. Today, just because Liao Zhiqing stopped outside my courtyard wall for a while, she dared to say all sorts of things, saying she had a guilty conscience and was having an affair. Is that something a family member could say? So they never considered me a family member, so I won't think about those nonsense anymore..."
"Besides, my money didn't just come from the wind. It was earned by my husband working so hard outside. It's only natural for me and my child to use it, but it's being used by people with ulterior motives. I feel sick!"
"Besides, Shi Xiu was able to get up easily by himself, so his injuries are probably not serious. He just looks scary..."
"And don't even think about getting a penny from me. You might get it but not be able to spend it..." When these words came out, everyone in the Shi family was stunned.
"What? Can you still kill someone?" Shi Jianjun muttered, but as soon as he said that, his wife, who had just recovered, covered his mouth, leaving only a few sobs...
Old Man Shi, who was about to speak, was shocked when he heard this. His initial guesses became more certain, and all his thoughts disappeared. He just wanted to leave here as soon as possible...
Captain Shi had never met a young wife as talkative as Chu Xi. Most people would be intimidated by her. After all, in this era of collective labor and work points, the captain's voice was still very high, so many villagers feared and respected the captain.
Captain Shi was speechless after hearing these words. He really couldn't respond. Besides, this time, they were right. He turned around to look at the Shi family members who had remained silent, especially Old Man Shi, who was wondering what he was thinking. He just walked away...
"You two should discuss your own family matters among yourselves. I can't interfere..."
Only a few people were left looking at each other, and Chu Xi just smiled at these clown-like people.
Everyone looked at each other, and finally Old Man Shi put aside his pride and walked out first.
"Help your little sister and leave quickly!"
For a moment, Old Man Shi felt like he had lost both his wife and his army. Not only did he not get the money, he also lost all his face and dignity...
In this way, the Shi family members supported each other and walked back home in a mess. Many onlookers only felt that the old man Shi's already hunched back was even more bent...
