Yang Hongwei was also surprised; he hadn't expected Huang Zhong to actually kneel down. Men generally valued their reputation more than their lives. He was capable of this. To put it nicely, he was flexible; to put it bluntly, he had no boundaries. It was precisely this kind of person who could resort to all sorts of vicious tactics.
After Yang Hongwei's surprise, the smile on his face deepened. He said, "I admit my fault, but what about the kowtow?"
Huang Zhong clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, his heart filled with hatred and rage. He wanted to smash everything in front of him to pieces! He pushed Yang Hongwei to the ground, stepped on him hard, and then made him lick his shoes! He would also stuff the shoes that had been stepped on pig manure, chicken manure, cow manure, and even human feces into his mouth so that he would remember the taste forever!
Huang Zhong kowtowed once, with a thud, then kowtowed a second time, with a thud, then kowtowed a third time, with a thud, then kowtowed a third time. Judging from the sound, this kowtow was made with full sincerity.
Mrs. Du hurriedly helped Huang Zhong up, her face a mournful expression. Her precious son, whom she cherished dearly, was actually kowtowing to someone else, and kowtowing so loudly! It was more painful than having her heart and flesh cut out!
Yang Hongwei was finally satisfied and said, "Since you are sincerely admitting your mistake, I won't make a fuss about it. You should come to my house less often in the future, and Du Fang is not allowed to come to yours either. If there are any issues between relatives in the future, I will intervene. In short, you two should stay away from each other from now on. Do you understand?!"
Huang Zhong's face remained calm. He took a deep breath and said, "I understand, cousin-in-law. I will definitely keep my distance from Du Fang."
At this time, Huang Zhong did not forget to play tricks. He called Yang Hongwei his cousin-in-law and called his cousin by her name to show their closeness.
Du Fang, standing outside the door, overheard her cousin's words, feeling a pang of grief. On the one hand, she felt her cousin was being heartless and ungrateful by distancing himself from her. On the other hand, she felt that her cousin had knelt down to defend their relationship, a truly pitiful act, one that deserved no such unfair treatment. For a moment, Du Fang felt torn.
Yang Hongwei said, "Just remember what I said today. Whether Du Fang lives or dies in the future, it has nothing to do with you. She is my wife. Whether I beat her or scold her, whether I kill her or praise her, you have no right to control her. Do you understand?"
"knew."
"Then repeat what I said."
Huang Zhong repeated Yang Hongwei's words expressionlessly and without a trace of emotion. Du Fang was heartbroken. Slowly, the balance in her heart began to tilt. She no longer felt that her cousin was heartless and ungrateful, because he did all these things because of the coercion and threat of Yang Hongwei. If it weren't for Yang Hongwei, her cousin would not have said or done that!
When Huang Zhong finished speaking, Yang Hongwei was satisfied and said, "You can go back!"
There was no harmony among the relatives at all, they were just kicked out.
Huang Zhong walked to the door and looked at Du Fang deeply. Du Fang felt that he saw into her heart. She only had her cousin in her heart. If it were not for the national regulations, she would not marry Yang Hongwei. Instead, it would be a good marriage like the cousins in ancient times!
Mrs. Du, who was behind, saw Du Fang and wanted to say something, but she hardened her heart and said nothing and followed her son.
Even though she is a niece, she is not as important as a son. Even a daughter is not as important as a son.
After the mother and son left, Yang Baman asked, "Will this offend him too much?"
Yang Hongwei snorted and said, "With his cowardly appearance, what can he do to me?"
Yang Baman said meaningfully, "Don't underestimate the young man because he's poor. That boy is no ordinary person."
Yang Hongwei said, "Even if he's not simple, I'm not that simple either! Dad, don't worry about this matter. I know my limits. Just for this matter, I won't let him get ahead."
Although Yang Hongwei had no concrete evidence regarding Huang Zhong's affair with his wife, he wasn't completely unconvinced. Some things simply couldn't be uncovered without someone's intervention. This time, Yang Hongwei had simply wanted to test Huang Zhong, but he'd never expected him to back down at every turn, showing no courage at all. Even if given the chance, such a person wouldn't amount to much.
Yang Hongwei ignored his father's words and turned to the door, yelling, "Why the hell are you coming in here? You finished your tea and didn't even come in to get some water! Do you have no brains or eyes?!"
Du Fang came in with a wronged look on her face to add more water. Yang Hongwei couldn't stand her and everything she did was wrong.
"You added so much water, are you trying to make us wake up a few more times at night? You're doing the farm work for me so I can't sleep well at night?"
Du Fang was about to cry, but she didn't dare to. If she cried, Yang Hongwei would slap her in the face, saying, "Why are you crying? Do you want your parents to die soon so that you can mourn them?"
Neither Yang Baman nor Zhang stopped their son's behavior. The main reason was that they favored their son and thought it was normal for him to teach his wife a lesson. Another reason was that they felt their son was angry and had to vent it.
After adding more water, Yang Hongwei kicked Du Fang again and said, "Hurry up and pour water for your parents to wash their feet! I haven't settled your score yet!"
Du Fang went to boil water again feeling wronged.
After Huang Zhong and his mother left the Yang residence, it was pitch black outside, darker than you could see your hand in front of you. Mrs. Du finally couldn't help herself and started nagging, "That Yang Hongwei is such a bully! We came here to talk things over, not to apologize. You and Fangfang haven't done anything to offend their family, so why are they asking you to kneel down and admit your mistakes? This is so abominable! We shouldn't be relatives with people like that!"
