Qin Lanlan gave Li Yun twenty cents and one ounce of silver.
"This money is Chen Ye's compensation. Take it to the county town and buy whatever you want."
"Mom, it doesn't take that much, twenty cents will be enough." Li Yun only took twenty cents.
"When you're out and about, it's good to have some money to protect yourself. Take this. If there's any left, you can buy some snacks for Dabao, Erbao, and Sanbao."
"Okay, thank you, mother." Li Yun took the one or two ounces of silver from Qin Lanlan's hand.
Li Yun carried a backpack and went to the village entrance. He took an ox cart to the town and then rented a horse carriage from the town to go to the county town.
Li Yun's village is called Qingshan Village, which is located in Qingzhou Prefecture, Qingshan County, Dajin State. The dynasty he is in is a fictional dynasty.
It's four miles from Qingshan Village to Dongnan Town, and sixteen miles from Qingshan Village to the county seat. It would take two hours by car (four hours in modern times).
When we arrived at the village entrance, several villagers were already waiting.
"Hey, isn't this Chen Ye's family? What a jinx, a husband-killer. Not long after arriving, she already killed Chen Ye."
The speaker was Chen Dagang's wife, from the east end of the village. She and Chen Mo's sister-in-law, Jinhua, were from the same village. They had always been close friends, and she often sided with Jinhua, bullying the honest Chen Mo couple. She was even more treacherous towards Li Yun, often ordering her grandchildren to beat up Dabao, Erbao, and Sanbao. She was a bully in the village, and many villagers disliked her.
Chen Mo's sister-in-law Jinhua and Chen Dagang's daughter-in-law Jinying are from the neighboring Jinshan Village.
Chen Mo's eldest brother was Chen Yan. He and Jin Hua had two sons and two daughters. Both daughters were married. The two sons also had families: the eldest, Chen Dagou, and the third, Chen Dasheng. Their eldest daughter-in-law, Jin Yue, was Jin Hua's cousin. The third daughter-in-law, Zhang Cuihua, was from Zhangjia Village and had three daughters with Chen Dasheng. Since they had no sons, Jin Hua left all the housework and farm work to herself. Jin Hua and Jin Yue did nothing.
Jin Yue and Chen Dagou had a son and two daughters, and the family only had one child, Jin Bo Luo. Jin Hua, Chen Yan, Jin Yue and Chen Dagou loved him so much that they would leave any delicious food for him and any fun toys that he didn't want would be given to his older sisters.
When Chen Mo's parents were alive, they also favored their eldest son.
When the family was divided, the eight good houses were given to the eldest son Chen Yan, and five acres of fertile land and five acres of wasteland were also given to Chen Yan.
Chen Mo was given one acre of fertile farmland, two acres of wasteland, and four adobe houses.
At that time, many villagers said that they were heartless, and the village chief did not agree with the division of the family.
In order to get rid of them and not live with them, Chen Mo agreed to the unequal conditions of division.
Speaking of which, when Li Yun heard Jin Ying's harsh words, his face instantly turned dark.
"If you can't speak, don't speak. No one will think you are dumb." Li Yun said loudly to Jinhua very angrily.
"Am I wrong? There are a few people in the village who say otherwise. Some even say it's even worse, saying you're a jinx, specifically one who brings bad luck to men.
The Chen Mo family is truly unlucky to have run into a jinx like you. People took you in out of kindness, and you brought death upon them. Are you going to bring death upon Chen Mo and Qin Lanlan, and the three poor children: Dabao, Erbao, and Sanbao?
You jinx, get out of Qingshan Village right now and don't bring bad luck to us."
Before Jin Ying could finish her words, she slapped Li Yun twice.
"Snap! Snap!" Two crisp sounds interrupted Jinhua's voice.
Everyone only saw Li Yunlian slap Jin Ying twice, knocking her unconscious and leaving both sides of her face red and swollen.
The burning pain brought Jin Ying back to his senses, and he rushed towards Li Yun like a madman, wanting to beat him up.
Li Yun turned sideways, raised his foot, and kicked her out, causing her to fall in the middle of the road.
"If you don't know how to speak, then don't speak. Did your mouth eat shit? You say such ugly things! What a jinx, a husband-killing star, what a little bitch. Did you grow up eating shit? Even the words you say are so smelly. Do you want me to help you wash your mouth?
Do you know what a comet is? It's a comet in the sky. If you don't know, don't use the word carelessly.
"Kehfuxing, how did Chen Ye die? Don't you all know? It was a war, and he sacrificed his life for his country so that you could live a good life. This is recognized by the court. How can you say such nonsense about a hero? Do you want us to go to Tancheng to ask the county magistrate for justice?"
When Jin Ying heard Li Yun say that he was going to seek justice from the county magistrate, she knew she was in the wrong and was afraid that the villagers would point fingers at her, so she decided to take the initiative and throw a tantrum in order to deceive the villagers.
"Someone come quickly! The broom is killing someone! The little bitch from Chen Ye's family is going to kill someone! Everyone come and see! Drive this murderer out of the village."
Jinying roared like a pig being slaughtered and rolled around on the ground.
The screams attracted many villagers, who came to see what was happening and what was causing the terrifying screams.
When the villagers arrived, they saw Jin Ying's face swollen like a pig's head and immediately wanted to vomit. It was so horrible! Then they saw her rolling on the ground like a shrew. It was too scary to look at her.
The villagers asked Jinying what happened?
Jin Ying claimed that it was Chen Hua's unlucky spirit who had beaten her so badly and even wanted to kill her. Jin Hua, the evildoer, filed a complaint first, misleading the villagers.
After hearing what Jinhua said, the villagers felt that Li Yun was vicious and began to criticize him.
"No, it was the Dagang family who called them unlucky and jinxed. They even wanted to drive them out of the village, so the Chen Ye family took action. The Dagang family's words were really too harsh. Ruining their reputation was too serious for the Chen Ye family. No one could tolerate it."
