Da Lang, Er Lang, and Chun Hua nodded indignantly, "That's right! We must avenge this; we can't let Auntie be bullied!"
Zhao, her eyes red and silent, carried a long carrying pole and moved towards Su Dahu.
This was the first time Su Hua had ever seen such a reckless family.
He glanced down at the person in his arms and said in a very soft voice, "There's no need to go anymore. I've already avenged my sister. I broke one of Wang Pei's hands, crippled Old Man Wang, and ripped a piece of flesh from Wang Chunfu's heart."
Upon hearing this, everyone instinctively stopped moving, and the large courtyard became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
A severed hand, a cripple, flesh ripped out?
They could understand each word individually, but when put together, it all seemed like a bloody mess.
They originally intended to beat Old Wang's family half to death or burn down the house, but breaking hands, crippling people, and cutting flesh were things they never even considered.
Moreover, these seem far more effective than being beaten half to death.
One by one, they stared wide-eyed at the girl in the courtyard. Hua'er was the kind of person who would even take an injured kitten home out of pity. Could she really do something so ruthless?
After a moment of stunned silence, Su Baishi wiped away her tears and said, "Serves them right! This damned family dared to bully our Su family's daughter. It's already more than kind of us not to kill them! We'll spare their three half-dead lives to atone for Sui'er's sins."
But Hua'er, remember, don't do such dirty things alone. Let your three older brothers do it.
A man who can't even protect the women in his family is utterly useless in this life!
The three Su brothers blushed with embarrassment but nodded repeatedly.
"Mother is right!"
"We should be the ones to handle things like cutting off limbs; we can't let Hua'er's hands get dirty!"
"Third Brother is strong. Next time we have to do this kind of hard work, Hua'er must ask Third Brother to come with her..."
Before he could finish speaking, he received a hard slap on the head. "Next time?! If you can't speak properly, shut up, or I'll slap you right now."
Under Su Baishi's death stare and the threat of a slap, Su Sanhu nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, his mouth tightly shut.
Madam Qian carried a cleaned pig offal from the riverbank, and looked at the family standing at the gate of the courtyard with a puzzled expression. "What's going on? Why are you all standing outside? Oh, is my sister-in-law here? What's wrong with her? Why is she being held in Hua'er's arms, and why does she look so pale..."
"Say less." Su Erhu took the wooden basin and quickly shook his head at her.
Qian kept her mouth shut, but her eyes kept darting around, revealing a strong sense of gossip.
Su Bai ignored her completely and directly instructed Zhao Shi, "Eldest daughter-in-law, hurry up and get some new rice to cook a soft new rice porridge for Sui'er. Keep all the rice oil on top. In Sui'er's condition, I'm afraid she won't even be able to swallow the porridge."
At this point, his voice choked up again.
Zhao quickly replied, "Mother, don't worry, I'll go right away and make sure all the rice oil is cooked for Sui'er."
Su Hua glanced at the wooden basin, gently squeezed Su Bai's hand, and blinked her almond-shaped eyes, "I treated all of my sister's injuries myself. Don't you trust my medical skills? They can snatch people back from the jaws of death."
"As long as my sister rests properly for a month or two, she'll be fully recovered. Mother, please don't mind us sisters being so noisy then!"
Upon hearing this, Su Bai burst into laughter through her tears. "Sui'er never causes trouble, only you, you little rascal, have been causing a ruckus since you were little."
"Yes, yes, Mother is right." Su Hua nodded repeatedly, giving her face.
Seeing that she was in a slightly better mood, he picked up Su Sui and carried her toward the main house.
Su Dahu's eyes darkened slightly as he followed closely behind. Seeing Su Sui being placed on the bed, he immediately pulled Su Hua a few steps toward the back of the courtyard. "Hua'er, tell your older brother the truth, why was Sui'er harmed like this by the Wang family? Did Wang Chunfu do something to wrong Sui'er?"
He and Su Sui were born one after the other and played together since childhood. He knew her personality very well. She was usually very gentle and soft-hearted. In the sixteen years she was a girl in the Su family, she never argued with anyone.
Even if there were some quarrels in the Wang family, it would never have escalated to this point!
Unless something major is happening.
The most likely explanation is that something happened to Wang Chunfu. At his mother's birthday banquet last time, Wang Chunfu immediately stormed off after hearing Hua'er's diagnosis, which was extremely suspicious.
Otherwise, Hua'er wouldn't be able to break someone's arms and legs with just one move!
Su Hua raised her eyebrows slightly, looking at the man's solemn expression, a few ripples flashing in her clear almond-shaped eyes, "Big brother is indeed meticulous."
Wang Chunfu was a homosexual and spent his days frequenting the Nanfeng Pavilion. He married his sister only to silence gossip and prevent his homosexuality from being exposed.
The Wang family, wanting a son, set their sights on my sister. When I asked Young Master Xiao to follow Wang Chunfu, they happened to witness the old man Wang making an indecent advance on my sister. Unable to bear the humiliation, my sister smashed her head against a wall.
When I arrived, she was on her last breath.
Unlike her, Su Sui grew up under feudal ethics and knew about Wang Chunfu's homosexuality long ago, but she never divorced him all these years, which was undoubtedly due to considerations of her reputation.
She would protect what she cared about.
With three young children in the family, all only three or four years old, and Qian Shi being particularly cunning, she might slip up at any moment. Moreover, most villagers were prone to believing rumors, and if the story of Su Sui hitting her head against the wall because of Old Wang got out at noon, who knew what kind of rumors would spread.
Therefore, she didn't let the villagers see Su Sui's face on the carriage just now, and as for Xiao Jinhan, she also instructed him on the way back not to tell anyone.
