The Zhang family isn't actually the poorest family in Gouzi Village.
However, it's considered to be at the bottom of the list in Gouzi Village.
Zhang Weicheng's family was not well-off, so no matter how much his elders loved him, they couldn't give him whatever he wanted.
This made Zhang Weicheng, who was studying in junior high school in the county town, feel particularly embarrassed in front of some classmates from well-off families because he was short of money.
He hated Fang Yan for refusing to lend money to his parents as much as he wished his family would become rich overnight.
Otherwise, their family would definitely be rich by now.
He could eat, drink, and have fun freely in front of his classmates, enjoying their envious glances!
Seeing the boy's ferocious expression, Fang Yan realized with shock that not lending money to the Zhang family last time had brought her such a terrifying boy.
If this incident hadn't happened, she wouldn't have known that Zhang Weicheng hated her so much.
It is said that dragons beget dragons, phoenixes beget phoenixes, and a rat's son knows how to dig holes.
That statement is absolutely correct.
Zhang Laowu only wanted to seize other people's money every day, so Da Pangdun inherited his mantle and would take everything in the family, including the people and things they had earned, as his own.
When the Zhang family came to borrow money, they kept saying that Fang Yan was now rich and they had to help her, otherwise they would be heartless.
Yes, so Zhang Weicheng also inherited this "fine tradition".
Just like how Fang Yan has never had the thought of influencing and guiding the chubby boy onto the right path since she transmigrated into the book.
At this moment, she didn't even think about reasoning with Zhang Weicheng.
Because of these two children, they were raised with all sorts of distorted values by their family.
Fang Yan is not a Bodhisattva; she cannot save these people who are already corrupt at their core.
Knowing that even if he presented Zhang Weicheng with evidence, explained the facts, and clarified why he wouldn't lend money to the Zhang family, Zhang Weicheng wouldn't listen to a single word.
Fang Yan simply didn't bother to explain a single word and went straight to his words, saying, "No matter what your reason was for injuring Qi Bei, you should at least take responsibility for this, right?"
“It was just an animal. I didn’t kill it, so why should I be responsible?” Zhang Weicheng said defiantly.
"Is this how the Zhang family behaves when they injure other people's livestock?" Fang Yan's scrutinizing gaze slowly swept across the faces of Old Man Zhang, Aunt Zhang, Zhang's son, Zhang's daughter-in-law, and Zhang Weicheng.
Zhang Weicheng always felt that there was more to her words than met the eye.
He was afraid of being scammed, so he didn't dare to accept the offer.
Aunt Zhang, who was used to being unreasonable and liked to take advantage of others, immediately said without thinking, "It's just an animal, not something precious. Otherwise, do you want to use it to extort money from our family?"
"Very good! You said it yourself."
Fang Yan didn't waste any words with her and directly ordered Qi Bei, "Qi Bei, their pigsty is over there. Go and bite their pigs. Remember, just bite them, don't kill them."
Upon receiving the order, Qibei immediately ran towards the pigpen.
The entire Zhang family, consisting of five people, jumped up, causing chaos and confusion...
"Stop that beast!"
"Fang Yan, you damned bastard! If your dog dares to bite my pig, I'll stew it right here and now!"
Aunt Zhang sat down on the ground and wailed.
Fang Yan glanced at her indifferently, "If you dare to touch Qibei again, I might as well do a good deed today and slaughter your pig on the spot so that the villagers can have some meat for the Mid-Autumn Festival!"
Gouzi Village is not wealthy. Nine out of ten households raise chickens and pigs, either to supplement their income or to occasionally improve their lives.
These days, everyone likes big, fat pigs; the bigger and fatter a pig is, the better.
That's why everyone likes to buy a piglet at the beginning of the year and raise it for a whole year.
Slaughter it at the end of the year for a bountiful harvest.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is just around the corner, and Old Zhang's pig has been raised for seven or eight months. It's not exactly fat, but it weighs at least 150 or 160 pounds.
Using the money to benefit the villagers is also a good idea.
Zhang's son rushed up to the village chief, pointed at Fang Yan, and complained, "Village chief, you saw it yourself! This crazy woman tried to get her dog to bite my pig! Village chief, you have to give us justice!"
The village chief was so angry he laughed. He pointed at his nose and started cursing, "You want justice from me now? Your son injured Qibei, and your mother said with a straight face, 'It's just an animal, not something precious. Are you trying to extort money from me?' Why didn't you stand up and speak up then?"
Now you come to me demanding justice?
In your mother's words, what? You think you can use a beast to extort money from Lao San's family?
This is what they call "lifting a stone to drop it on one's own foot."
Zhang's son was so scolded by the village chief that he didn't dare utter a sound.
Old Zhang had initially spoken up for his son, but upon hearing the village chief's words, his old face turned ashen, and he dared not utter another word.
The key point is that this whole thing was done unfairly by their family. The third brother's family was just retaliating in kind. What face do they have to ask the village chief to uphold justice for them?
Qibei is a clever dog; it understood the subtle wink Fang Yan gave it while giving it the command.
Right now, it's chasing Zhang's pig like a madman, making it squeal and howl as if someone is whipping it from behind...
Not a single person present, not even those who usually had a decent relationship with the Zhang family, stood up to speak in their defense.
When the Zhang family saw this, they realized they had handled things very unfairly, and they were too ashamed to continue crying.
The Zhang family mother-in-law and daughter-in-law wanted to pull Qibei out of the pigsty, but when they saw how fierce Qibei was, they didn't even dare to put their hands in.
"Third brother's wife, tell me, what do you want to do about this?"
Outside the door, the villagers who had gathered to watch had already started pointing and whispering about them.
If left unchecked, things will definitely get out of control.
Old Man Zhang, the only one in the Zhang family who still had some sense, finally walked up to Fang Yan and asked.
Fang Yan looked back at him and raised her voice, "You're asking me? I'd like to ask you the same thing!"
After saying that, she immediately added, "Your Zhang Weicheng first said in front of my Xiaoyu that his mother would not be tired or overworked after eating Doni. When my Xiaoyu asked him where he picked the Doni fruit, he took the opportunity to ask to touch my Qibei."
When you were petting my dog Qibei, you injured it. I brought Qibei to your house to ask for an explanation, but you said that Qibei is an animal and that you didn't kill it, so what explanation do you want?
Since this is the rule of your Zhang family, then I will follow your lead and use your own methods against you, letting Qibei avenge itself. Now you ask what you want.
Uncle Zhang, that's the kind of question I should be asking you.
