"How could that be? Where did Tian Tian go?" Wu Tiao asked, somewhat displeased.

We've already agreed on this, so why is Sweetie going back on her word?

Shen Liuliu immediately asked about the poultry in her uncle's house.

Poultry, unlike birds and other animals, are not as intelligent, so they cannot explain it clearly.

Shen Liuliu immediately instructed the surrounding birds to ask for her.

"Brother, let's go home and wait." Shen Liuliu reached out and took Wu Tiao's hand, not wanting to waste time here.

Wu Tiao always listened to his younger sister, so he turned back.

As they walked, they complained, "What's wrong with this sweetie? She made us wait in vain."

"Brother, what do you mean..."

"Hey, isn't that Shen Pengfei? Shouldn't he be at the academy by now? What's he looking at here?"

Wu Tiao suddenly pointed into the distance and started shouting.

In private, Wu Tiao never called Shen Pengfei "brother".

Shen Liuliu immediately looked in the direction Wu Tiao was pointing.

At the other end of the street, Shen Pengfei and his older brother walked back, chatting and laughing. Their excitement was evident even from this distance.

"quack."

A crow flew by, delivering a message to Shen Liuliu.

—

"I didn't expect it to be done so easily. Two hundred taels of silver! That's quite a sum!"

"Don't worry, brother. I only need 160 taels of silver. The remaining 40 taels will naturally be yours."

"Pengfei, our family has spent a lot of money on you."

"Don't worry, brother. Once I become an official, you'll definitely get your share of the benefits."

—

This is what the crow imitated the words of the Shen Pengfei brothers.

Shen Liuliu paused in her steps.

Two hundred taels of silver?

Why does that sound so familiar?

"It's all thanks to her good fortune in horoscopes... What are you five doing here?"

As they approached, the Shen brothers saw Wu Tiao and their faces fell, as if Wu Tiao owed them a lot of money.

Especially Shen Pengfei, but his gaze was fixed on Shen Liuliu.

"Liu Liu's birth chart is pretty good, isn't it?" Shen Pengfei said abruptly.

Although Wu Tiao didn't understand what they were saying, he sensed their ill intentions and immediately picked up his sister and ran away.

An'an, however, remained where she was.

"If you dare look at Liu Liu like that again, I'll gouge your eyes out!"

"Hey, you little brat, you dare threaten me? What, never been beaten before? I'm... Ouch! That hurts!"

Shen Pengfei retreated rapidly in horror, his eyes filled with terror as he looked at An'an, who had grabbed his elder brother's fingers and nearly broken his wrist!

Is this guy even human?

How old is he? How could he subdue such a tall and strong man in one go?

An An exerted a little force, and a crisp, clear sound was heard—

"Bang!"

"ah!!"

Shen Pengju let out a shrill scream, but before the two brothers could say anything, An'an suddenly sat down on the ground!

"What's wrong?"

"Pengju? What's wrong with you?"

Many villagers ran over when they heard the commotion, and felt their scalps tingle when they heard Shen Pengju's screams.

Upon seeing someone arrive, Shen Pengfei immediately shouted, "Quick, grab that kid! He broke my brother's finger!"

Dazhuang and the others turned their heads to look.

On An'an's pale face was a very clear bloody handprint! Blood was still dripping from the corner of her mouth!

Shen Pengfei: ? ? ?

Where did the handprint and blood come from?

Also appearing was Fu Linqing's mother. Fu's mother was thirty years old this year, with a well-proportioned and tall figure, and fair skin that never tanned.

He is a person who speaks out for justice and is cheerful and generous.

"An'an, are you alright? Shen Pengju and Shen Pengfei, how old are you? How could you have the nerve to beat someone's child like this?"

Fu Niangzi carefully helped An An up, and felt heartbroken looking at the child's injured state.

As a mother, I can't stand seeing this kind of thing.

"He came here to provoke us first!" Shen Pengfei quickly retorted.

If he doesn't speak up, the villagers will beat him up!

Where did this little brat come from?

Why is this so eerie?

"...It was my fault. They looked at Liu Liu with such malicious eyes, and I couldn't help but warn them, so..."

An An pursed her lips, her eyes cold as she wiped away the blood from the corner of her mouth, seemingly unconcerned about her injury.

An eight-year-old child, no matter how mature he is, is still just a child!

Despite being beaten like this, she didn't cry or make a fuss, especially the way she wiped away the blood herself, which made Fu Niangzi and the other women clutch their chests and cry out in heartache!

"That's so vicious! How could someone hit someone like that?"

"that is!"

Shen Pengju was in so much pain that he saw stars. Seeing that everyone was siding with that brat, he roared through the pain, "He broke my finger! Are you all blind?"

"If he were that capable, would you have beaten him up like this?"

Some villagers shouted indignantly.

Who is this person?!

Shen Pengju was going crazy; his hair was standing on end: "Who saw me hit him?"

"Nobody saw him break your hand."

Shen Pengju: ...

"An An? An An!"

From afar came the shouts of Shen Erming and Shen Wanli, as well as the soft, sweet voice of Liu Liu running over.

Madam Fu hurriedly called out, "Come and see! Look what Shen Pengju has done to An'an!"

Poor child!

This is outrageous!

"An An?"

Upon seeing the injury on An'an's face, Shen Erming's eyes turned bloodshot. Without saying a word, he flew over and straddled Shen Pengju, delivering a powerful punch without uttering a sound!

"Bang!"

He punched the other person right in the eye socket.

Shen Pengju felt as if his eyes were about to go blind.

"Bang!"

"puff!"

Another punch landed directly on the other man's face, causing Shen Pengju to spit out a mouthful of blood!

Everything happened so fast!

By the time everyone reacted, Shen Erming had already thrown his third punch!

"ah!"

After a scream, Shen Pengju, his face covered in blood, fainted!

The crowd quickly separated the people, and Shen Erming also got up readily.

only……

"Bad guy!"

"Oh dear, my goodness, get up quickly."

Shen Liuliu actually went up and kicked it twice, but after kicking it once, Shen Liuliu suddenly sat down on the ground, hugged her foot and started crying loudly.

"Ouch! It hurts so much and it's so hard! There's a rock inside! Ouch!" Shen Liuli cried loudly and desperately.

Shen Wanli quickly picked up his daughter, took off her little shoes, and looked at her toes.

The chubby little feet did indeed have a red patch.

"Ouch, Liu Liu, it doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt. Daddy will blow on it." Shen Wanli immediately blew on his daughter's feet and kissed them twice. "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt~"

Shen Liuliu was extremely anxious, "No, no, no, it's..."

Why doesn't Father understand?

"Uncle, did Liu Liu kick a stone?" An'an saw that the little dumpling was so anxious that she kept saying no, no, no, so she quickly came over to remind her.

Shen Wanli hadn't reacted yet.

Shen Pengfei quickly stepped in and shouted, "Everyone, please help carry my brother back. I need to hurry and get a doctor. I can't let anything happen to him."

"Wait a moment!"

Shen Erming stopped the flustered Shen Pengfei and asked with displeasure, "What is Shen Pengju carrying in his arms?"
