Chapter 87 I'm Not Alive Anymore
After pouring the water, he stood in the crowd and watched his brother having fun.
It's obvious that this woman did it on purpose. My third brother hates women like this the most.
Xia Xing'er saw her second brother also standing in the crowd and watching her third brother make fun of him, so she secretly moved over and stood next to her second brother.
The brother and sister smiled at each other, then turned their gaze to Wang Yue lying on the ground.
Wang Yue had been helped up by Wang Da and Wang Er who had chased after her. Zheng, who was following closely behind, looked at Wang Yue's face which was bruised like a pig's head from the fall and wished she could faint on the spot.
After falling like this, how can I enter the Wang family tomorrow?
Although Mr. Wang is already quite old, he still insists on marrying a young and beautiful woman. A woman with an ugly appearance is definitely not acceptable.
That was a betrothal gift of fifty taels of silver. I felt so heartbroken just thinking about missing out on such a huge sum of money that I couldn't breathe.
She glared at Wang Yue fiercely, thinking that he was born to nemesis her.
She then looked at Xia Qingyu. Apart from his aura, she could see that the fabric he was wearing was something that ordinary people couldn't afford.
Then she came up with a plan and said to Xia Qingyu confidently: "My dear, my beautiful daughter has fallen like this because of you. You must take responsibility!"
When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned. Even the people in Liuxi Village were shocked by her shameless words. They knew that Zheng was a shameless person, but they didn't expect her to be so shameless.
How could Zheng say that? It was clearly Wang Yue who fell down, so how could she blame it on someone else?
Jiujiu excitedly screamed in Xia Xing'er's mind: "Ah, Xing'er, your third brother is going to be relied on by this family. Look at the way that woman looks at your third brother, it's almost tearing my hair."
"Xing'er, hurry up and ask your third brother to beat them up so hard that their parents won't recognize them."
"Xing'er, you are so mean. Instead of going up to help your third brother, you are just standing here watching the fun."
"Xing'er, do you think your third brother can leave this family of vampires behind?"
Xia Xing'er rolled her eyes and asked instead of answering, "That's my third brother, what do you think?"
Because it was dark, no one saw the flying stone and everyone thought that Wang Yue fell down by herself.
Even Wang Yue thought she had fallen down.
Although all her attention was on Wang Da and Wang Er who were chasing after her, as well as Xia Qingyu who was her lifeline.
But it didn't stop her from guessing Zheng's thoughts.
She now has only two options. The first is to admit that she fell accidentally and help clear the suspicion of the young man in front of her.
She could also avoid the fate of being sent to the Wang family because of her disfigurement, but what about the future? Would she be sold to the Zhang family or the Li family?
The second is to follow Zheng's words and rely on the young man in front of her. From then on, she can get away from this family of vampires and live the life she has always dreamed of.
In an instant she knew which path she should choose. She wanted to follow the handsome man in front of her.
She looked at Xia Qingyu with resentment in her eyes and said slowly: "Sir..."
If her face wasn't so swollen like a pig's head and her voice wasn't a little lisp, I might have felt a little sorry for her.
However, the expression on her face now is really eye-catching and hard to look at.
Xia Qingyu was so angry at their shameless words that she laughed. She said sarcastically, "If you want to blackmail someone, you should do it in a more convincing way. I was at least two meters away from you, if not five meters. She fell down and she could blame me. Ask the people around here if they believe it or not!"
"According to what you said, I am lying on the ground now. Can I say that I was frightened by your ugly appearance?"
Wang Yue did not back down because of what Xia Qingyu said. Instead, she felt that he was more attractive and liked him more.
The look in her eyes as she looked at Xia Qingyu became increasingly passionate, and she wished she could throw herself into his arms right away.
"Sir, I am Wang Yue, sixteen years old. My mother and her friends want to sell me to a sixty-year-old man. Please save my life and don't let them take me back."
Wang Yue was crying and sobbing, her head banging on the ground, blood oozing from her forehead, and she looked extremely miserable.
The people around who were watching the fun all felt a little sympathy for her.
Some even began to speak up for Wang Yue: "Zheng, Wang Yue is your biological daughter. Mr. Wang is so old, how could you bear to send her to be abused by others?"
"Everyone in our village knows what kind of person Mr. Wang is. I don't believe you don't know. You are pushing your own daughter into the fire pit!"
"That's right, you're not marrying off your daughter, you're selling her for fame."
Zheng glared at the people around her and said, "Don't say such harsh words. What do you mean by selling your daughter for fame? Your family doesn't marry off your daughters, so how can marrying off your daughters be considered selling your daughter for fame when you say it?"
"What's wrong with Mr. Wang? He's rich, doesn't he? If my daughter marries him, she'll be the wife of a wealthy family, she won't have to suffer hardships anymore, and she'll be able to wear gold and silver. Your daughter wants to marry him, but Mr. Wang doesn't even look down on her!"
She snorted coldly and turned her gaze to Xia Qingyu: "My dear, my daughter could have married into the Wang family and lived happily ever after, but now, because of you, she's been disfigured and her good marriage is ruined."
"How about this, I'm a generous person. You pay me fifty taels of silver and we'll let this go. Otherwise, I'll make sure you can't leave Liuxi Village!"
Zheng was very tough and refused to listen to the advice of her fellow villagers. She was determined to get the fifty taels of silver.
Wang Yue hesitantly said, "Master, please save me and buy me from my mother. I am willing to work like a slave for you. If you don't even help me, I really can't survive. I will just run into you and die!"
“Woo…”
Since Wang Yue dared to say this, she was certain that Xia Qingyu was a kind person and would definitely save her.
Wang Yue looked at him with hope, but instead of hearing his soft voice, she only heard a sneer.
She looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man and a woman walking out of the crowd.
The woman was wearing an elegant turquoise long dress, the hem of which swayed gently in the wind, like the freshest touch of green in spring.
Her hair was as black as ink and was simply tied into a bun. A few strands of hair gently fell on her cheeks, adding a touch of casual softness to her.
Her eyebrows are like distant mountains covered with smoke, her eyes are as clear as autumn water, and there is a hint of smile on the corner of her mouth. She has the gentleness of a lady from a noble family, but also reveals a hint of imperceptible cunning.
She walked out slowly, as if walking on clouds, and every step she took exuded an aura that could not be ignored, making people unconsciously look at her sideways.
The man was tall and handsome, with a stern expression, like a demon, exuding an inviolable aura.
He walked forward step by step, and every step seemed to step on everyone's heartstrings, causing them to tremble.
His eyes were as sharp as torches. After scanning around, they finally landed on Xia Qingyu. A trace of imperceptible tenderness and respect flashed in his eyes.
Then, he gently patted Xia Qingyu's shoulder. Although the movement was light, it seemed as if it could carry a thousand-pound burden, giving him silent support and strength.
This scene made everyone present hold their breath involuntarily, as if even the air had frozen.
Wang Yue looked at the man in front of her with greed in her eyes, thinking that it would be great if she could get close to him.
Looking at the woman in front of her, she couldn't help but feel inferior.
Xia Xing'er looked at her sarcastically, and her words were even colder: "Come on, why don't you do it? Don't just talk and don't practice!"
She turned her head and smiled at Xia Qingyu, "Third brother, you can't be too kind, otherwise you will be blackmailed and taken advantage of. Since they are immoral, you have to be even more immoral than them."
"To deal with shameless people like them, you have to be even more shameless than them!"
"Lie down and cry!"
The sound is very powerful!
Xia Qingyu was frightened by her shout, and her body was more tense than her ears, and she sat down directly on the ground.
"I'm dying! What kind of world is this? I actually ran into a family like this. Did I dig up their ancestors' graves in my past life? Otherwise, how could I let such an ugly thing get entangled with me and make me responsible for her? This is a direct attempt on my life! Oh, God, all the great gods, and passing Bodhisattvas, please send down thunder to strike them to death!"
"It clearly has nothing to do with me, so why do you want me to take responsibility and not others? Is it because I'm honest and easy to bully? Why do you specifically bully an honest person like me? Oh my God, I have no way out!"
He screamed at the top of his lungs, looking extremely miserable.
She looks even more pitiful than Wang Yue.
How can a grown man cry so easily? Is he still a man?
Wang Yue was completely confused by Xia Qingyu's actions. Is this still the handsome, gentle and elegant young man standing in the crowd?
Is he possessed by a ghost?
How can I continue singing in this play?
Xia Xing'er didn't expect that her third brother had such talent, and she was very satisfied.
She turned to face Zheng, looking sad, and said, "You've really gone too far. Look at what you've done to my third brother. They say men don't cry easily, but that's only when they're heartbroken. My third brother is crying like this, he must be extremely wronged. You've hurt him both physically and mentally, so you must compensate him. If you don't pay me one hundred taels of silver today, I won't let you go."
Xia Qingyu looked at her sister's angry expression, and then looked at Wang Yue and her daughter's faces, which were like palettes, sometimes blue, sometimes white, and sometimes red. She couldn't hold back her tears and laughed out loud. It was a pity that she had such a strong patience.
There is actually such a method to deal with scoundrels. It is really useful. He has lived in vain in the past few years. It seems that he should spend more time with his sister in the future.
"Ahhhhh... I won't live anymore, wuwu... This is really too much of a bully. Oh God, please open your eyes and take a look. Why did you let me meet these two ugly monsters? How am I going to live my life from now on? It would be better if I died now. If I die, they will let me go, right? All of you get out of the way, don't stop me, I'm going to die in front of you."
People around "..."
Xia family: "..."
Who is trying to stop you? There is so much space around, just go ahead and bump into it!
As a mother, Liu Youran was full of thoughts. She really seemed to not recognize her son on the ground. Was this really her picky little son?
Are you sure it wasn't switched?
Fortunately, I am not in the capital now. Anyway, I don’t know many people there. Let him do whatever he wants, as long as he is happy.
Zheng opened her mouth, not knowing what else to say. Should she continue to let others take responsibility? She really couldn't say anything now. If she really said something, would she be drowned in the saliva of everyone?
How could he, a grown man, do this? Even a woman couldn't do what he did. He has no shame at all.
"Big brother, second brother, what are you all standing there for? Why don't you come and have a good talk with them? You let them bully our Xia family like this."
Xia Qingyun and Xia Qingfeng immediately stepped forward to stand in front of Xia Qingyu, looking at Zheng's mother and daughter viciously.
Zheng was frightened by such a look and shrank her neck. She asked tremblingly: "You...you...what do you want to do?"
Xia Xing'er smiled and said lightly, "What do you think we're doing? Of course we're asking for compensation. One hundred taels, not a single copper less. If you dare not pay, we'll smash your house today and see who's more powerful!"
Zheng's face turned pale. She couldn't understand how things turned out like this. She just wanted to extort some money, but who would have thought that these people were not easy to deal with, and she was blackmailed by them instead.
Liu Youran held a rolling pin, Zhuge Pei held a fire poker, Bai Wan'er held a shovel, Xia Chengsheng held a large spoon, and the three children also held their own small weapons. The whole family rushed into Wang Dana's house with great vigor and confidence.
"Smash it for me and show them what happens when you bully an honest person."
There was a lot of "crackling" sound and Wang Dana, who had already woken up, felt a burning pain in his throat and wanted to drink some water. Just as he was about to call for help, he saw several unfamiliar people rushing into his house angrily.
They smashed his house and he fainted from anger.
Zheng ran into the house as fast as she could and saw the mess. She was so angry that she was shaking.
"You are robbers and bandits. You are really going too far!"
A kitchen knife was pointed directly at her face, and she was completely stunned. Just when she thought she was going to die today, the kitchen knife flew past her ear and directly stuck into the wall behind her, and the hair between her ears also fell off.
Zheng's legs went limp and she fell straight down, trembling and saying, "Murder! Murder! Go find the village chief! Outsiders are going to kill people!"
Wang Da was so scared that he had already hidden far away. When he heard Zheng say this, he turned around and ran towards the village chief's house without thinking.
When the head of Liuxi Village arrived, Wang Dana's house couldn't even piece together a complete item.
The villagers were also standing outside watching the fun, and no one came forward to help.
They had no reason to want to help. They saw clearly what happened from beginning to end. The other party smashed their house with a legitimate reason. It was them who disgusted the other party first and wanted to blackmail them.
