Chapter 317 I am also a victim
Zhang Defu and Tian Caihong wanted to show off, so they naturally didn't care how hard they hit her. Matchmaker Zhang was beaten so hard that she screamed in pain. The arrogance she had when she first entered the house disappeared, and she could only beg for mercy.
Zhang Juexia reminded from the side, "Ask her who ordered this."
Matchmaker Zhang didn't want to say anything, but she couldn't stand the punches that rained down on her. "I'll tell you, I'll tell you, Mr. Liu Hong from the Xiucai Show House asked me to come."
"Let her go!"
"No, we can't let her get away with it like this!"
"That's right, Miss, your father is right. Your son-in-law has just passed the imperial examination and someone is already rushing to be his concubine. As your wife's family, if we are soft-hearted this time, we will have to bear the consequences in the future."
Matchmaker Zhang had been beaten black and blue. She recognized who was the culprit and quickly turned around to kowtow to Zhang Juexia. "Mrs. Scholar, I was wrong. I beg you to be magnanimous and let me go! I will never do such a thing again, even if you kill me."
When Ye Beixiu, Zhang Wei and Liu Qiang entered the shop, they were dazzled by the chaotic scene before them.
"Madam, what is this?"
Without waiting for Zhang Juexia to reply, Zhang Defu jumped in front of Ye Beixiu and said, "How dare you ask? I'm here to propose marriage to you."
"Propose marriage?"
Ye Beixiu looked at Zhang Juexia at a loss.
Zhang Wei and Liu Qiang were often on duty away from home, and had seen many such things. Naturally, they knew Zhang the matchmaker.
But the way he looks today is really miserable.
When Matchmaker Zhang saw Zhang Wei and Liu Qiang, she was like seeing a savior, "Two officials, please save me!"
Zhang Defu kicked Matchmaker Zhang again, "So what if the official is here? I am the father of the scholar's wife. How can I bear the thought of you bullying my daughter like this?"
Zhang Wei and Liu Qiang knew a little about Zhang Juexia's family affairs. After looking at each other, they stepped forward to stop Zhang Defu, "I say, this matter is almost over. Matchmaker Zhang has learned her lesson, so let's go easy on her!"
Zhang Defu cursed and swore, seemingly unsatisfied.
Matchmaker Zhang tugged at the corner of her savior's clothes and begged her to let her go quickly.
Zhang Wei thought for a moment and said, "It's not easy to let you go. Just tell me who asked you to do this."
"I just told you, Liu Hong asked me to come."
Matchmaker Zhang was afraid that Zhang Wei would say something wrong, so she quickly dug out a piece of silver from her pocket and said, "Sir, I beg you, this is the hard work fee Liu Hong gave me, I don't want it, I'll give it all to you, please let me go!"
They are all crazy, if they don't let me go, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave this door alive."
Zhang Wei took the silver and weighed it in his hand. "Matchmaker Zhang, I'm afraid this amount of silver isn't enough for your mission!"
Matchmaker Zhang swallowed the bitter water in her heart and could only kowtow and beg for mercy, "Sir, saving my life is the most important thing now, so please don't talk to me about money. Please, be kind and let me go!"
As soon as I leave this house, I will burn incense every day and pray to the Buddha to bless you with peace and safety."
Zhang Wei glanced at everyone and asked, "Why don't we let her go?"
Zhang Juexia said unhappily, "I don't want her to be an eyesore here anymore."
"Then hurry up and get out of here!"
Seeing that his wife looked unhappy, Ye Beixiu roared loudly, just like the calm before the storm. Matchmaker Zhang was so scared that she ran away tumbling and pissing her pants.
Tian Caihong and Zhang Defu were also trembling with fear. Tian Caihong muttered softly, "I've never seen my son-in-law so majestic before. Why do my calves feel so weak when I see him today? Why don't we go too?"
"You useless bastard, we are here to find our uncle. Now that he has shown up, how can we leave?"
Zhang Juexia heard everything the two men were muttering. She couldn't stand Zhang Defu's chameleon-like behavior and said unhappily, "Liu Hong, it's Liu Hong again. Zhang Defu, please have some sense. Stop pretending to be a good guy in front of me. Go beat Liu Hong up if you have the guts!"
Tian Caihong agreed with Zhang Juexia's words this time. After all, her own daughter was also a victim. "The eldest lady is right! I think that Liu Hong deserves to be punished."
"I'll go and settle the score with him."
Zhang Defu rushed out of the shop angrily, with Tian Caihong chasing after him.
Watching the two people leave, Zhang Juexia finally breathed a sigh of relief. She turned back and warned Li Xi, "If they come again, find a way to kick them out."
"Got it, Boss."
Zhang Juexia greeted Zhang Wei and Liu Qiang, but didn't look at Ye Beixiu. "I'm tired, so I won't accompany you anymore!"
Zhang Wei and Liu Qiang are both smart people. They had originally agreed to have dinner with Ye Beixiu, but looking at the situation, they can't have the dinner anymore.
Zhang Wei couldn't help but curse Zhang the matchmaker in his heart, saying that she had no vision. She could have chosen any other day to matchmake, but had to ruin his brothers' drinking party today.
He exchanged a few hand gestures with Liu Qiang and decided to leave. "Um, Brother Ye, I just remembered that we still have some unfinished business at the government office, so we have to get to it. Let's find some time to drink together!"
Zhang Wei and Liu Qiang quickly slipped away.
Li Xi called Ding Man, "Ding Man, I remember there are some things in the backyard warehouse that have not been registered. Come with me to take a look."
Ding Man was confused. "Boss, why don't I remember what else is in the warehouse?"
Li Xi pulled Ding Man to the backyard with a dark face.
Only Ye Beixiu and Zhang Juexia were left in the shop. Ye Beixiu quickly reached out to pull Zhang Juexia, but Zhang Juexia dodged him easily.
Ye Beixiu's hand hung in the air for a moment, "My lady, please listen to my explanation. This proposal of marriage is nonsense. Don't take it to heart."
"Why should I take it to heart? It's not like you're proposing marriage to me."
"Madam, I really don't know anything about this matter. In fact, I am also a victim."
"How can you be a victim? If you like, you can get married tomorrow. I will never stop you."
When Zhang Juexia said this, he didn't think at all. He was angry and just said nonsense.
Ye Beixiu was angry, his chest heaving as if there was an angry beast roaring inside. He said angrily, "My wife, others don't understand what kind of person I, Ye Beixiu, am, but you don't know it yet.
I have only passed the imperial examination and become a scholar now. Even if I make great contributions and become a general one day, I will not take a concubine.
In this life, no matter what, I only have one wife, and that is you."
"What if that person is a princess?"
Ye Beixiu was amused by Zhang Juexia's words, "I'm afraid your husband isn't that lucky yet!"
"you......"
Ye Beixiu took the opportunity to pull Zhang Juexia into his arms, "My dear, to be honest, ever since I married you, I have stayed away from the female rabbits in the mountains and the laying hens raised by Wanfeng.
My lady, let alone a princess, even if you are a fairy in heaven, I only have eyes for you."
