Chapter 104: The Horsewhip Dips in Cold Water
Liu Lizheng said this three times, but no one said anything. Even Zhou Cuihua and Zhang Xiuer, the two pickpockets, stopped talking.
Zhao Zhilan had previously thought about how to divide the four wild boars.
Liu Lizheng and Yang the Hunter definitely wouldn't want it, and the other people in the village would have no desire to take it either.
But even if there were many people in her family, they wouldn't be able to eat all four wild boars. It would be better to share them with the villagers. Even if each family only got a little, they could still have some meat and be happy.
After all, there has been a severe drought for so many years, and every family has had a hard time. Back then, everyone helped each other. Now that their family has caught a wild boar, they naturally can't just not give any of it away.
But no matter how I think about it, I still need to ask Baoya for her opinion on how to divide it specifically.
Zhao Zhilan knew very well that the four wild boars hiding in the cave together was definitely not a coincidence. It must have been caused by Baoya's good fortune.
She knew it in her heart, but she would not say it out loud.
Seeing Baoya and Yun Chenglu and other children gathered together to watch the fun, Zhao Zhilan walked over and picked up Baoya.
"Baoya, now the village head says that these four wild boars belong to our family. Do you have any ideas?" She was afraid that the child would not think of this, so she tried to ask Baoya.
Baoya blinked her big eyes that looked like purple grapes, and answered quite shrewdly: "Grandma, I want to share the pork with everyone."
Hearing her words, Zhou Cuihua and Zhang Xiuer who were sitting on the ground had their eyes brightened!
"Mrs. Zhao, look at this! Look at this! You're really not as good as Baoya, a child!" Zhou Cuihua was so excited that she ignored Chen Changshui on the ground. "My two years of raising you were really not in vain..."
However, before she could finish her words, Baoya continued, "But we won't give it to those seven people who refused to listen and insisted on going up the mountain!"
"Grandpa Lizheng and Uncle Yang were almost injured trying to find them. We can't feed them to people like them!"
Zhou Cuihua was dumbfounded. She couldn't finish the second half of the sentence and almost bit her tongue.
Zhao Zhilan laughed heartily after hearing Baoya's words and pinched her plump little tummy: "Oh, our Baoya is right! Some people, even when they're grown up, are so shameless!"
"Old lady Zhao!" Zhou Cuihua's eyes turned red with anger. She jumped up from the ground and pounced towards Zhao Zhilan.
Zhao Zhilan's eyes were bright. Seeing her rushing towards her like a mad dog, she raised her foot and kicked her in the heart, knocking her to the ground.
"Ouch!"
Zhou Cuihua fell to the ground on her back, curling up in pain. "Zhao Zhilan, you evil-hearted person! You want to kill me!"
"Liu Lizheng, look! Everyone, look! Zhao Zhilan is going to kill me!"
Zhou Cuihua covered her heart and started howling, rolling on the ground and yelling at Zhao Zhilan to pay her compensation.
Liu Lizheng simply couldn't bear to watch it. If Zhou Cuihua hadn't committed any serious mistake, he would have wanted to expel her family from Feishui Village. It was really too embarrassing for him!
When Zhao Zhilan saw her behavior, her face suddenly turned dark.
Baoya had never seen Zhou Cuihua like this, and the child didn't know whether she was real or pretending.
I asked worriedly, "Grandma, what happened to her? Is she going to die?"
Zhao Zhilan sneered, "She died? A piece of scum like that, she'd still have a long life if she could just jump around!"
"Hmm?" Baoya didn't quite understand and tilted her head to look at Zhao Zhilan.
Zhao Zhilan laughed: "Don't be afraid, Baoya, just let her roll around on her own!"
After she finished speaking, she gave a wink to Wang Cailian who was standing next to her.
Wang Cailian raised her eyebrows and immediately understood!
"Mom, I'll go right away!" She ran very fast with small steps. Mom was going to take care of the people!
Liu Lizheng was just worrying about what to do with this troublesome shrew. When he saw what Zhao Zhilan and the others were doing, the old man coughed pretentiously.
"Well, old auntie, anyway, they've already signed the document. If they cause trouble, just treat them as hooligans. I'm old and can't do anything about it! You're old too, just take it easy and don't tire yourself out."
After saying that, he stroked his beard and went into the house.
He said it very clearly, and Zhao Zhilan understood immediately that Liu Lizheng was turning a blind eye and leaving Zhou Cuihua to her to deal with, as long as no one was killed.
"Ouch! Oh my god! I can't take it anymore!"
"Everyone, come and see! That damn old woman Zhao Zhilan is beating someone up!"
Zhou Cuihua didn't know what was going on and was still rolling on the ground with great enthusiasm.
As she was rolling, a whip suddenly came down from the air and hit her on the buttocks, making her scream in pain.
“Ouch!”
But before she could react, the second and third whips came down.
Zhao Zhilan took the horsewhip that Wang Cailian brought from home, dipped it in a basin with some water, and started whipping Zhou Cuihua.
If you hit someone with a horsewhip with the right amount of force, it can cause severe pain without breaking any bones, especially if it is dipped in cold water.
"Ouch! Oh my god! It hurts so much!"
Zhou Cuihua was beaten so badly that she crawled all over the floor, still swearing, "Bah! You old hag! I...I'm going to sue you at the county government office!"
"Go ahead, that document was written by Liu Lizheng himself, and your Chen Changshui pressed his fingerprints on it!" Zhao Zhilan said, and whipped him again.
"Ahhh! You inhumane person!"
Zhou Cuihua screamed like a ghost and couldn't stay on the ground any longer. She crawled up and ran home.
But just as she was about to run, Wang Cailian kicked her back.
Zhao Zhilan whipped him again.
"Oh my god! Stop hitting me! Please stop hitting me! I was wrong, isn't that okay?!"
Zhou Cuihua's whole body and clothes were beaten to pieces. She was a grown-up woman, crying and crying, covered in dirt, and begging for mercy repeatedly.
"Do you really know you're wrong?" Zhao Zhilan whipped the whip in her hand. "Say what you mean, what's wrong?"
"Ouch! I don't want any pork anymore! You guys eat it, I'll give it all to you!"
"That originally belonged to us!" Zhao Zhilan slapped him hard.
"Oh my god! Yes, yes...it's all yours!"
"She ordered Chen Xiaojuan to trick our Baoya! She let Chen Changshui peek through the crack in the door to watch us make tofu! She even stole our river clams! I'm telling you, I'm counting every single one of them! Ten lashes for each one, and you won't be spared even one!"
This is the accumulated anger that burst out through what happened today.
Zhao Zhilan showed no mercy and beat Zhou Cuihua until she was lying on the ground in pain.
"Your parents-in-law passed away long ago, and no one taught you how to behave properly. I, an old woman, am several decades older than you, so I will take good care of you today and teach you how to behave and do things!"
Zhao Zhilan felt relieved after being whipped. She showed no mercy at all. If you were a little soft on someone like Zhou Cuihua, she would climb up the ladder with the whip.
She must be beaten so that she will remember this lesson forever!
