Chapter 88: Too Much Bullying
"What are you doing? Can anyone tell me what's going on?"
The village chief was eating when he was suddenly pulled down from the table. He was already unhappy, and when he saw the mess, he became even more unhappy.
Wang didn't shout and drag this person over. Wang Dachui saw Zheng trying to blackmail the guest he brought, so he wanted to call the village chief to stun Zheng.
But who would have thought that the situation would be reversed just by him calling the village chief?
Zheng was so angry that her whole body was shaking. She had never suffered such a great loss since she was born.
She took a breath, gathered her emotions, and was about to start crying and complaining about their acts of robbery, when a voice started crying even faster than hers.
"This is simply too much, too bullying."
Xia Qingyu took the initiative and began to cry: "If I knew that this is how you treat guests in Liuxi Village, I would never come. Although we are outsiders, you can't bully us like this. You are simply not giving me a way to live. God, please let me die. There is really no point in living!"
Zheng's eyes were as big as copper bells, and she looked at Xia Qingyu in disbelief.
Who is more miserable now? Her house has been smashed!
Wang Yue kept her presence low, fearing that others would notice her.
Xia Xing'er looked at her deflated expression, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.
If you want to disgust others, then let's see who is disgusting whom.
The village chief looked at the house that was smashed to pieces, and then looked at Xia Qingyu who was sitting on the ground trying to commit suicide.
He swallowed and stammered, "Sir, no matter what injustice you have suffered, you must not let it go and do anything stupid."
The village chief wanted to go forward and help him up. After all, it was not a very nice look for a grown man to sit on the ground and roll around like a shrew.
Unexpectedly, before the village chief's outstretched hand could even touch Xia Qingyu, he grabbed her thigh and said, "You are the village chief, right? You must make the decision for me. You can't favor your fellow villagers just because I'm an outsider. Your Liuxi Village makes money by attracting merchants. If you let these mother and daughter ruin your Liuxi Village's reputation, who will dare to stay overnight in your village in the future?"
Xia Qingyu pulled the village chief's pants down directly.
The village chief's face turned red, and he clamped his legs together, quickly pulling up his pants that were about to fall off, and tied them tightly with a belt.
"Sir, I know you feel wronged, but could you please take your hand off my leg?"
If you don't take it away, you will pull my pants down again. I even suspect that you did it on purpose.
His whole life's wisdom is about to be ruined by this kid. Who can he turn to for justice?
He was the village chief, but he had his pants pulled off by a bad boy. If the village chiefs of the other two villages knew about this, they would definitely laugh their heads off. He had lost all his face, so how could he go out in the future?
"I won't let go. If you don't give me justice today, I will never let go even if I die."
Xia Qingyu seemed to be in a state of enlightenment, and she was very skilled in throwing tantrums and rolling around.
"Okay, okay, I will definitely give you justice."
The village chief promised him anxiously, fearing that if he was a little late, even his pants would be pulled off.
He wanted to free his leg from Xia Qingyu's hand, but he couldn't get it out even after using all his strength. Fortunately, he was prepared, otherwise he might have lost his dignity.
"Sir, please let go first. We'll call the mother and daughter who are blackmailing you over and ask them about the situation. If it's true, don't worry, I will definitely not protect them and will drive them out of Liuxi Village."
No matter what happened, the village chief still listened to Xia Qingyu's words.
He didn't care what kind of person Zheng was in the past, but it was not acceptable since it concerned the reputation of Liuxi Village.
If the news of the villagers blackmailing others gets out and is known and spread by people from the other two villages, will they still be able to do the accommodation business in the future?
If it affected his own interests, he wouldn't care, but this time, he couldn't sit idly by.
The village chief frowned, his eyes revealing unquestionable determination.
He exerted force suddenly and finally broke free from Xia Qingyu's persistence, but his trouser legs looked a little messy due to the struggle.
He didn't bother to tidy up and strode directly towards Zheng. His hands, which were full of traces of time, were clenched into fists tightly, as if he wanted to release the anger in his heart.
"Zheng, what else do you have to say?"
The village chief's voice was deep and powerful, like a sudden thunder on a summer afternoon, shaking the hearts of everyone present.
Zheng's face turned pale in an instant. She wanted to explain herself, but found that she had already lost the ability to speak. She could only look at the village chief helplessly, her eyes full of fear and despair.
But she still didn't believe that the village chief would help outsiders instead of the villagers.
"Village Chief, you saw what happened to my house."
Zheng pointed with a trembling finger at the messy house, where debris was scattered and tables and chairs were overturned, as if it had just experienced a storm.
Her voice was tearful, her eyes were red, tears were welling up in her eyes, but she stubbornly refused to let them fall.
Her eyes moved back and forth between the village chief and Xia Qingyu, full of confusion and unwillingness.
"Can't you see, village chief? I don't care anyway. They smashed my house like this, so they must compensate! They were all brought here by Wang Dachui. If they don't compensate, then Wang Dachui will."
"Are you helping them bully us powerless common people just because they have money?"
The village chief heard her trying to evade the main point and shouted, "Then tell me why they smashed your house and not others."
"There are so many families in Liuxi Village, why are they targeting yours?"
This family is lazy and likes to eat. They also do some petty thefts from time to time. Since they are all members of the Wang family, he turns a blind eye to it.
"I'm just a woman, what can I do to a grown man?"
Zheng knew she was in the wrong, but could she admit it? Definitely not.
She thought that this man would be like those rich people in the past, and would definitely spend money to avoid disaster in order to calm things down. She didn't expect that he would be so tough.
She didn't expect that she would alarm the village chief, which was not the result she wanted.
When the village chief saw her like that, he knew that what the young man said was true.
He knew that he couldn't get anything out of Zheng, so he asked the villagers nearby to speak.
"Zheng wanted to marry Wang Yue to Mr. Wang, but the girl didn't want to. The mother and daughter started arguing, and Wang Yue ran out. It was dark and she couldn't see the road clearly, so she fell and got disfigured."
"Yes, that's what happened. The young man was a full five meters away from her, and they, mother and daughter, wanted him to take the blame. Isn't this just blackmail? No one would be happy about that!"
"Zheng asked for a full fifty taels of silver. That's fifty taels, not fifty copper coins. Even if Wang Yue is made of gold trim, it's not worth that much silver."
…
The villagers spoke one by one and told the whole story clearly.
Xia Xing'er didn't expect that no one in the village would speak up for their family. It shows how unpopular they are in the village.
The village chief was immediately enraged. "Okay, okay, you're such a jerk! You completely ignored my words. I've told you many times that the reputation of Liuxi Village must be prioritized. You absolutely must not defraud overnight guests, and you knowingly did it!"
"Liuxi Village is a large community. Only when the entire village is well can each of us be well. Since you don't care about the reputation and honor of Liuxi Village, then your family is no longer qualified to stay in Liuxi Village. Please move out."
The village chief usually seems to be smiling and easy to talk to, but the villagers all know that such a person is the most terrifying when he gets angry.
But then again, keeping Wang Dana's family around is a nuisance. It would be better for them if they were driven out of the village as soon as possible.
If Liuxi Village's reputation is ruined by this family, it will be too late. The villagers strongly support the village chief's decision.
"I'll have someone settle all your houses for you. Whatever is yours will be yours to take away. Whatever you can't take away will be converted into silver. And what isn't yours, don't even think about taking it away."
The village chief was determined to drive Wang Dana's family out of the village, and no matter how Zheng, Wang Da and Wang Er pleaded and promised, it was of no avail.
Seeing that the village chief was indifferent, Zheng turned to ask Wang Dachui and Zhu to help persuade the village chief.
Zhu stood in the crowd holding the child, watching Zheng begging for mercy and acting pitifully with cold eyes.
"It's no use begging us. The decision was made by the village chief. You should have thought of the consequences when you did those things. You all deserve it. Don't expect us to clean up your mess every time something goes wrong. Don't even think about it."
"Second brother, you can't be so heartless. We are your elder brother, elder sister-in-law, and nephew. Blood is thicker than water. You can't just ignore us. Please beg them for us. We brought all these people in here. If you plead, they will definitely listen. Just think of it as your elder sister-in-law begging you. Your elder sister-in-law has never begged anyone before!"
Zhu looked at her with disgust, and sighed in her heart that her expression changed so quickly. She didn't say that just now.
"Uncle, I am your nephew. You will never watch us being driven out of the village, right? If grandma knew that you didn't care about her eldest grandson, she would definitely be sad."
"Uncle, you have to help us this time. You're the only one who can help us. You loved us the most when we were little. I even want to take care of you until the end of your life."
Seeing that Zhu was indifferent, the mother and her two sons knew that she would never speak for them. They placed their last hope on Wang Dachui, the younger brother/second uncle who was the most soft-hearted.
Everyone turned their eyes to Wang Dachui. If he really asked for mercy, the village chief would definitely consider it.
After all, Wang Dachui is very popular in the village, and he will help anyone who has problems.
Xia Xing'er looked at him with interest. She actually wanted to know what choice he would make. No matter what choice he made, she would not let Wang Dana's family go. Anyone who dared to plot against her family must be prepared for revenge.
"Xing'er, what do you think Wang Dachui will choose? You humans are so hard to understand."
Xia Xing'er replied in her mind: "A high-tech product like you will never understand human emotions."
For a long time...
"Xing'er, if you were asked to choose between justice and your family, what would you choose?"
After a long soul question, Xia Xing'er also began to think: "If it were me, I would definitely choose my relatives, because my relatives are different from them."
Her relatives would not stab her in the back or lie on her and suck her blood.
"If they wanted to kill someone, I would definitely hand them a knife, and vice versa!"
After a great struggle between heaven and man, Wang Dachui also made a decision. He was heartbroken by the actions of Wang Dana's family, and he was extremely disappointed with them.
"Let's do whatever the village chief says. Everything is decided by the village chief."
Hasn't he helped them enough over the years? But what has he gotten in return?
Have they ever said a good word to him?
Upon hearing this, Zheng, Wang Da and Wang Er all collapsed to the ground, their faces pale. They knew that it was useless to say anything.
The two brothers suddenly saw Wang Yue hiding in the distance, and thought that all this was caused by her.
The two men stepped forward, grabbed Wang Yue directly, and attacked her left and right: "You bitch, it's all your fault. Can't you just stay here? Why are you running? I'll beat you to death, bitch."
"You bitch, if it weren't for you, would our family have been kicked out of Liuxi Village? Why don't you listen? Why can't you just marry him? I'll beat you to death, you bitch!"
The two brothers grabbed Wang Yue, pressed her head to the ground, and beat her up, as if she was not their sister but their enemy.
Xia Xing'er looked down on such people. They had no ability, but they treated their sister like a commodity and tried to gain benefits for them. It was really disgusting.
However, she couldn't feel any sympathy for Wang Yue. If she didn't have so many ulterior motives, she might have helped him.
She is full of calculations and it is really hard to like her. Fortunately, her third brother doesn't like this type of person, otherwise she really can't accept it.
The village chief had a few people separated, and in the end the incident ended miserably for Zheng and his group.
The village chief also asked people to take inventory of Wang Dana's belongings overnight.
While no one was paying attention, Wang Yue limped back home, took the valuables at home, and left Liuxi Village before dark.
Wang Yueguang was so busy getting on his way that he didn't notice that there were two scoundrels from the neighboring village following him.
They went straight to the edge of the woods, knocked Wang Yue unconscious and dragged her into the woods.
"Boss, this woman is too ugly. Why is her face swollen like a pig's head? I'm not interested in her just by looking at her."
"You have so many problems. It's good enough that a woman lets you have sex with her. Why not just cover her face?"
"You have to be the boss. Women are all the same anyway. Just don't look at their faces. Boss, you go first, hehe!"
"Damn, she's still a novice. I'm really going to make a killing this time."
…
After the two finished, they put on their clothes while discussing the feeling in a lewd manner.
"Boss, if Zheng knew we had sex with her daughter, would she come after us and hold us responsible?"
The person who was called boss thought that it seemed to be true.
He squatted down and took away all the valuables from Wang Yue, then asked another person to tie him up, drag him to the riverside, tie stones to him, and throw him into the river.
