Those who were originally just watching the spectacle, seeing this situation, quickly blocked the few people who wanted to escape, allowing Wang Fengqin to fight even more smoothly.
For a moment, the crowd was filled with pleas for mercy and various painful groans.
When the village chief and Lu Cijian arrived, this was the scene they saw, and they were completely baffled.
When they heard that the old man from the Jiang family had come looking for them with ill intentions, they rushed over to offer their help.
Unexpectedly, they saw Wang Fengqin chasing and hitting people, and the onlookers even helped to stop her.
It looked like a group of people were chasing and intercepting those people who were running around with their heads in their hands.
Li Yishi was stunned for a moment before having someone pull Wang Fengqin away.
He frowned and stared at the several people on the ground whose faces were bruised and battered, and said with displeasure, "Who are you, daring to cause trouble in Qing Shi Village? Believe me or not, I'll send you to see the officials."
Upon hearing that she was to see the magistrate, Granny Wu hurriedly squeezed out of the crowd and shouted, "Quick, quick, report to the magistrate! This woman beats her own mother-in-law and father-in-law. She is so heartless. The magistrate must send them all to jail!"
Wang Fengqin was so angry that her eyes turned red, and she was about to make a move when Jiang Yimian stopped her.
Li Yishi looked only at Jiang Yimian and asked, "Jiang girl, tell me what happened."
Jiang Yimian coldly swept her gaze over the few people on the ground who were glaring at her fiercely, and said indifferently, "I don't know these people. They came to my house to cause trouble, can't I even drive them away?"
Upon hearing this, Granny Wu was so angry that she opened her mouth to curse, but she accidentally aggravated the swollen wound on her face, and gasped before saying, "Stop talking nonsense, I am your own grandmother."
"You assaulted your elders and neglected your grandparents. If you go to the authorities, the county magistrate will definitely punish you. Just wait to be flogged."
She refused to believe that no one could handle those two bitches.
Li Yishi didn't even glance at Granny Wu, and said with displeasure, "Jiang girl said she doesn't know you. Stop making trouble and leave now, or I won't be polite to you."
Everyone was stunned by these words.
Granny Wu stood there, staring at Li Yishi in disbelief, and shouted, "You're the village chief, aren't you? Didn't you see how badly these two beat us?"
"How dare such ruthless people remain in the village? Aren't they afraid of being killed by them?"
Seeing this, Chen Guixiang quickly chimed in, "That's right, village chief, she's right."
Moreover, I just heard Jiang Yatou say that these people abandoned them to flee the famine, so they must know each other. You must not be fooled by Jiang Yatou.
She's so ruthless, even daring to beat her own elders. How can she stay in the village? They should be driven away immediately.
Li Yishi frowned even more, glared at Chen Guixiang, and then looked at the other onlookers with annoyance, saying loudly, "Did you all hear that just like Chen Guixiang?"
The group exchanged glances and remained silent.
If you didn't realize what was going on at first, you do now.
These people who claim to be Jiang Yatou's grandparents are clearly here to cause trouble because they see the Jiang family is doing well. Judging from their shrewish behavior, they are no good people.
Rather than standing with these strangers, they would rather side with Jiang Yatou.
At least Jiang Yatou has been good enough to them. Not only did she open a workshop in the village, providing jobs for many women, but she also led them to clear land and plant medicinal herbs, so that everyone could make money together.
How bad could someone like that be?
If these people hadn't left Jiang Yatou's whole family to die in the village, Jiang Yatou wouldn't have resorted to violence.
If they encountered such relatives, they would naturally act the same way.
Seeing that no one was speaking, Chen Guixiang became anxious and immediately shouted, "Why aren't you all saying anything? It was Jiang Yatou who admitted it herself. If you don't know her, how would these people know Jiang Yatou's name?"
Are these people crazy? They're all siding with that bitch Jiang Yimian.
Although Jiang Yimian was surprised by everyone's actions, she knew this was not the time to be moved. She just glanced at Chen Guixiang coldly and said indifferently, "What's wrong, Aunt Chen? Are you so excited because you know these people?"
If you know them, take them away. I don't know these people who are trying to claim kinship with me.
I'm from Qingshi Village, but these people aren't.
Li Yishi also looked at Chen Guixiang and said irritably, "If you know them, take them away. Don't let them cause trouble in front of the Jiang family's house and make a mess of things."
If you don't know them, shut up and stop making trouble.
Chen Guixiang was speechless at these words and immediately shut her mouth. She was so angry that her teeth itched, but she didn't dare to say anything more, for fear of being stalked by these crazy women.
Her family is so poor they can't even afford to eat, they can't let these people take advantage of them.
When Granny Wu and the others heard this, they were stunned for a moment before they said with dissatisfaction, "Village Chief, you can't just listen to Jiang Yimian and talk nonsense."
We're really relatives; this is our own family matter, none of your business, so please mind your own business.
They thought these people would definitely stand on their side, but who would have thought that these people had been drugged by Xiao Tizi and, seeing them beating people, they still stood on Xiao Tizi's side, which is really infuriating.
Li quickly added, "That's right, this is our own family matter, what does it have to do with you? Jiang Yimian, if you don't bring out the money today, we won't leave."
After saying that, he sat cross-legged in front of the Jiang family's gate, looking like a rogue.
Jiang Donghua followed suit, quickly sitting down to the side and shouting loudly, "Don't even think about leaving without paying us!"
Li Yishi felt a headache coming on and was hesitating about how to deal with these scoundrels when he heard a cold voice.
