Hua Shi transmigrated, inexplicably becoming a lazy, gluttonous, and universally detested vicious older sister who routinely took pleasure in bullying her four young siblings.
Her eldest brot...
Li remained calm and composed. "Oh, then go find the man and tell him in front of me that he stole the sheep. Where are the sheep? Why didn't I see them? He couldn't have eaten them alive the moment he stole them, right?"
It was obvious that she was the one who was irrational at first, but with just a few words, she was forced to argue with her, making everything confusing.
The Li brothers stared at each other, their eyes choking with anger. "You...!"
They also didn't expect this old woman to be so unreasonable...
Li Dian took a deep breath and said calmly, "When he was stealing, we found him and naturally took the sheep back. How could we let him take it away?"
Li's face drooped. "That's because there's no evidence. It's not right to talk nonsense when there's no evidence. You can't call the person, and you don't have any evidence... Oh, right."
As Li was speaking, she didn't know what she was thinking about. Her eyes slowly fell on Hua Li, who was pretending to be a quail on the side. She pulled Hua Li over with her big hands.
She used no strength, and directly lifted up Hua Li's broken hand, and questioned,
"You beat my man without any reason and broke his hand. I don't care about anything else you do. I don't know how much silver it will cost to heal this broken hand... I estimate it will cost at least five taels of silver. You have to pay for this money, right?"
Li was thinking and speaking in a coherent manner. He turned the tables and looked at the three Li brothers who were trying to blackmail others. He sneered in his heart and had already thought of a countermeasure.
Isn't it to extort money? She can do that. With this broken hand, she has to extort a few taels of silver.
When the second brother of the Li family heard this, he was also impatient and retorted bluntly, "Why? He was the one who stole our things, so we broke his hand."
Li snorted coldly, "Stealing? Do you have evidence? Everything requires evidence. Show me the evidence."
The three Li brothers looked at each other, speechless. How could they produce any evidence? They said someone had seen them, but in fact, no one had actually seen anything. They said this on purpose, just to scare people and make them pay the money honestly.
The one who really saw the kid stealing the sheep was actually only Li Dian.
But the sheep theft was a fact, and they exaggerated it to increase their deterrent effect. They had never considered bringing any evidence for a confrontation.
When petty thefts happen in the village, the guilty thieves, frightened by a few things, will confess everything. Why would they need any evidence to support their claims?
Li looked at the three speechless people, raised her eyebrows, put one hand on her waist, and spoke more harshly.
"You can't even produce any evidence, yet you're still talking nonsense and even beating up such a young child. I don't think you're any different from hooligans. Are you bullying us orphans just because we're from a small family? Do you have any shame? Do you have any shame?"
The Li brothers were forced to take several steps back by Li.
Li Dian looked a little flustered. He really didn't expect that the Li family would be so shameless. They turned the situation around in a few moves and made it their fault.
"We're not kidding, this is the truth! Everyone saw it just now, if you don't believe me, just ask them!"
Li Dian pointed at the group of onlookers and spoke loudly.
Li looked around with a sullen face, her tone becoming gloomy. "Really? Who saw it? Did you see my grandson stealing sheep? Who saw it?"
Most of the onlookers were the Hua family's neighbors. Knowing that Li was petty and had a hot temper, they generally did not want to provoke her for fear of causing trouble.
What's more, they just came to watch the show, and they knew nothing about what the Li brothers said.
Li Dian looked at the people who were silent and looking at each other, but no one stood up to speak for him.
Mrs. Li was also getting impatient and said bluntly, "I don't care what you say. I won't admit it anyway, but you broke his hand, that's the evidence, and you admitted it yourself. If you don't compensate me with five taels of silver, I'm going to go to the village chief to seek justice."
Li was used to handling these matters and was a smart person. He could easily clear himself of the matter and even turn the tables on the Li brothers.
After all, she has a mouth, so she still has something to say when she goes to the village chief.
The eldest brother of the Li family was so blocked that he couldn't say a word, "You!"
You spent a long time not knowing how to refute.
They were clearly in the right first, so why do they have to pay compensation now that it’s her turn?
Seeing that they could not win the argument or the debate with Li, the three brothers of the Li family took a few steps back, exchanged glances, and left angrily.
Li watched them go without stopping them, and spoke slowly from behind.
"Don't think you can just leave. If you don't send the five taels of silver tomorrow, I'll go to the village chief to reason with him. I'll also invite the old patriarch to come over for you. Let's see who has something to say!"
The sound was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough for people to hear clearly.
Hua Shi looked at Li in amazement. His fighting power was off the charts. With just a few words, he was able to defeat Li…
In Li's eyes, she didn't care whether Hua Li stole the sheep or not. As long as she was in front of him, it was clear that he hadn't stolen the sheep. After all, she couldn't produce any evidence, so no one would listen to her...
