Hearing Old Lady Wu scolding her, Xia Wan slapped Wu Baoping across the face again.
"You brat, let go of my son! Oh my god! You're not letting me live! You just start hitting me for no reason! I'm going to find the brigade leader!" Zhou Yanhong, the second daughter-in-law of the Wu family, tore at Xia Wan's arm, trying to free her son!
Unfortunately, with their limited strength, they couldn't pull Xia Wan away at all.
This led to them getting more and more into their insults, and Xia Wan hitting them harder and harder. In the end, Wu Zhaodi seemed to remember what Xia Wan had said before, and quickly pulled her mother and sister-in-law back.
"Stop cursing, Mother, Sister-in-law, stop cursing! Let go!"
Unfortunately, Wu Baoping's beating had already distressed the two men so much that they had no time to listen to what she had to say.
When they saw Wu Zhaodi also trying to pull them away, they assumed that Wu Zhaodi was siding with her daughter, so Old Lady Wu slapped her across the face.
"You're still siding with this little brat. Now that Baoping has been beaten, you don't even know to step in and help her."
For a moment, it was impossible to tell friend from foe, and the scene was chaotic. Even the men who had been kicked to the ground struggled to get up and tried to tear Xia Wan apart.
This time, Xia Wan didn't hold back. She lifted Wu Baoping up with force and hurled him at the group of people.
Now that's great, she's got all the points from the Wu family.
This time, when Xia Tao was about to help, Xia Wan didn't stop him.
Although the Wu family was large, Xia Wan and her brother did not suffer any losses. Xia Wan even had time to take care of her brother while she was hitting people.
The onlookers stopped just watching and started trying to break up the fight. Someone called the brigade leader, and the situation was finally brought under control!
"What's wrong now?" The captain's tone was very unpleasant; these people really knew how to cause trouble for themselves.
Hearing this, Xia Wan quickly pulled her brother back. Hitting someone is fine, but hitting someone in front of the brigade leader is a bit too much.
She could tell that the brigade leader was quite supportive of her father, perhaps because the two had some prior relationship. Therefore, she couldn't possibly hit someone in front of the brigade leader and make things difficult for him.
"Oh, Captain, you've finally arrived! We've been bullied to death..."
"Captain, I'm reporting this to the police. That brat Xia Wan beat my son for no reason. Look, she's beaten him so badly he's almost passed out."
When Grandma Wu and Zhou Yanhong saw the brigade leader, they rushed over and hugged his legs as if they were seeing a relative. The sound of their crying and shouting made it seem like they were holding a funeral.
"You two, let me go. If you have something to say, say it. You're not young anymore, what are you doing?" The captain disgustedly pulled his leg out of Old Lady Wu's grasp.
Grandma Wu didn't care. She sat down on the ground and pointed at Xia Wan, saying, "It's her! It's this brat! She hit my grandson for no reason. Look what she did to him! He's terrified. His face is all bruised like this. He'll be disfigured!"
"Captain, you have to stand up for us! My Baoping can't have been beaten like this for nothing!" Zhou Yanhong looked at her son with heartache.
She only has one son, and he's been spoiled since he was little. There's no reason for him to be beaten by this brat.
The captain glared at the two of them, then looked at Xia Wan and asked, "Tell me what happened?"
There's not a single day of peace. This afternoon, Old Xia's family was fighting, and now they're fighting with their in-laws. The brigade leader is probably worried to death.
He was already busy enough with village affairs, and now he had to deal with these people's family disputes.
“I was sleeping in my room when my cousin woke me up, saying that my maternal grandmother’s family had come to see me. But as soon as I stepped out, they said I had hit Wu Baoping.”
They all ganged up on me, and I was terrified. I couldn't just stand there and let them hit me, so I had no choice but to fight back.
Xia Wan pouted innocently as she explained. She didn't deny that she had inflicted the injuries on those people. Anyway, the onlookers outside had already seen it, so there was no point in denying it.
Even if she admits that she hit the person, it was the Wu family who attacked first, and she was only acting in self-defense. Even if the police are called, it won't be her fault.
"You're talking nonsense! Why are we here looking for you? Isn't it because you hit Baoping in the hospital?" Old Mrs. Wu got up from the ground, pointed at Xia Wan and shouted, "If you hadn't hit Baoping in the hospital, we wouldn't have bothered looking for a little brat like you."
Xia Wan smiled helplessly and looked at the captain, saying, "Uncle Captain, you really can't blame me for this. It wasn't just Wu Baoping who was injured at the hospital; my injuries were also quite serious. And I had the doctor examine my injuries at the time."
At the time, Wu… my mother even went to the police station. In the end, after the doctor examined my injuries, the police even made Wu Baoping apologize to me! If they hadn't done anything wrong, why would they apologize to me? If you don't believe me, we can go to the police station to see for ourselves.”
The captain looked at Wu Baoping, who was curled up in a ball: "Was the injury you sustained in the hospital inflicted by Wu Baoping?"
Why did he feel so disbelieving? So many people had been knocked to the ground by Xia Wan; it was obvious that this girl had unilaterally crushed them.
Moreover, Jian Guo said yesterday that this girl is not only strong but also knows some kung fu, so she doesn't look like someone who would get beaten up at all!
Xia Wan nodded seriously: "At that time, there were only two patients in the ward, Wu Baoping and my father, and the police had also investigated at the time."
Anyway, she pushed all the blame onto the police, so even if they asked her to go to the police later, she would have a valid reason, since her injuries had been examined by a doctor.
Moreover, she felt that these people wouldn't dare to go to the police.
"Wu Baoping, what do you have to say?" The captain frowned as he looked at Wu Baoping, who was still cowering, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.
Worried that her grandson might be intimidated by Xia Wan and say something wrong, Old Mrs. Wu stepped in front of him and said, "Captain, look at Baoping's injuries. What else is there to say? Xia Wan has to pay for our medical treatment! And it's not just Baoping; our whole family has been hurt by this brat."
"Everyone saw it. We haven't been able to work for a long time, and Xia Wan has to compensate us for it."
The captain scolded, "I told Wu Baoping to tell me what happened at the hospital. Did you come looking for trouble with the Xia family? Now you want me to take charge? Where were you before?"
Xia Wan stood to the side looking like a victim, a stark contrast to her fierce demeanor when she was beating someone earlier; she seemed like a completely different person.
The captain looked at Wu Baoping and said in a deep voice, "Wu Baoping, stand up and speak! Don't keep hiding behind a bunch of women."
He hates cowards like that who hide when something happens and let others stand up for them!
Wu Baoping's face flushed red, clearly very dissatisfied with what the captain had said. However, he didn't even dare to disobey Xia Wan, let alone the captain!
