Chapter 209 209 A Little Show of Power
"...Oh dear, you didn't see it! When I got there, Lichun was on top of Huang Zhiqing, and the way she was choking him was terrifying! By the time I stopped her, Huang Zhiqing had already passed out. Luckily, I arrived in time, otherwise, our Xiaoshanhe Village would have been embroiled in a murder case..."
Tian Jinhua was a bad person, so she was not well-liked in the village. This old woman was biased towards Huang Feiyan in her words and actions, and she wanted to teach Tian Jinhua a lesson through this incident.
Su Xiao stared coldly at Zhao Lichun, whose hands were clenched tightly at his sides, and questioned, "So, the cause was that you followed and stalked Huang Zhiqing. What were you trying to do?"
"I... I didn't mean to do anything. That road doesn't belong to her. I was just walking my own path. Why would she suspect me of following her?" Zhao Lichun's eyes flickered with a hint of evasion.
Tian Jinhua chimed in, "Yes, you have no evidence. If anyone saw it, I'll say she was shameless and seduced my son..."
"Smack!"
"ah……"
With a slap and a scream, the battle immediately began.
No one expected that the seemingly gentle and weak Su Zhiqing would actually hit someone, and... her fighting power was off the charts, truly fierce.
"Slap! Slap!" Su Xiao's main move was to catch Tian Jinhua off guard, and he grabbed her and started slapping her hard across the face.
"I'll teach you to be so foul-mouthed! Who seduced whom? Your son is such a coward, only you treat him like a treasure. You should take him out and look at him in the mirror. What kind of trash is he, daring to covet my sister!"
"Stop fighting! Stop fighting! Quickly, pull them apart!" Zhao Xi jumped up and down in a panic, directing several women to go and break up the fight.
Su Xiao was very sensible and immediately let go, obediently cooperating.
After being slapped several times until she saw stars, Tian Jinhua finally came to her senses and began to cry out, "Oh dear, this is outrageous! The educated youth beat me up!"
"Alright, stop howling. Who told you to be so foul-mouthed and not know how to keep things in check?" Zhao Xi was furious. There had been an assault in the village, and if the higher-ups investigated, the village's honor as an advanced collective this year might be in jeopardy.
Tian Jinhua was startled, and Zhao Xing quickly pulled her over and glared at her fiercely.
Zhao Xing had been hiding in the crowd watching, knowing that his family was in the wrong and dared not step forward for fear of being blamed. So he had Tian Jinhua do it. Now that he saw Tian Jinhua had been beaten, he came out, not to seek justice for her, but simply to settle the matter.
"Brother, look, my wife got a scolding too. Can't we let this matter drop now? Don't worry, I'll definitely discipline Lichun and that woman when we get home, and I promise they won't dare cause any more trouble." Zhao Xing grinned, trying to smooth things over.
Zhao Xing and Zhao Xi are still related by blood, even though they are not five degrees apart. Whenever Zhao Xing's family makes a mistake, they always try to use their connections to their advantage, which makes Zhao Xi hate them even more.
"Hmph." Zhao Xi snorted coldly, glared at him fiercely, and then turned to Su Xiao, saying, "Su Zhiqing, what do you think of this matter?"
"This isn't over yet." Su Xiao said with a stern face, showing no intention of letting the matter rest.
Just then, the people from the farm arrived and pushed their way through the crowd.
"Xiaoxiao, what's wrong? Are you alright?" Old Man Hua asked breathlessly, his white beard trembling.
"I'm fine, Master. It's Yanzi who's in trouble. Could you take a look at her and see how serious her injuries are?" When Su Xiao saw that Old Man Hua had arrived, he immediately pulled him over to check Huang Feiyan's injuries.
Seeing this, Old Man Hua disregarded everything else and began to diagnose Huang Feiyan.
