Chapter 321 Jia Family Compound
Old Mrs. He took two steps back, her eyes filled with terror.
"Hey, what are you doing? Trying to act tough?"
"Mother-in-law, this is embarrassing! You came to my house to see my daughter, not... Ah, ah, let go!"
The more she said, the angrier Song Chunxue became, and she kicked the old woman from the He family hard in the leg.
"So you do know what 'ugly' means? Was your brain covered in pig manure when you hit my daughter before?"
"You shouldn't have said that! Now that you've said it, I'll regret it for the rest of my life if I don't beat you up today!"
Old Mrs. He waved her arms in resistance, but Song Chunxue's fists were even harder, striking her forcefully.
"If you dare hit my mother, I'll fight you to the death!"
He Er grabbed a shovel and swung it at Song Chunxue's back.
"He Er, you damned bastard, you dare to hit my mother!"
Jiang Hongying's eyes instantly reddened. She picked up the manure scoop she had used that morning and hadn't put it away yet, and slammed it hard on the back of He Er's head.
He Er's wife widened her eyes, her triangular eyes turning into almond-shaped eyes, and she roared with anger.
"Jiang Hongying, you wilted cucumber, how dare you hit my man, you son of a bitch..."
She had just grabbed a handful of dirt to throw when He Chuan, who hadn't reacted yet, instinctively swept it away with his foot.
She lost her balance and fell forward, getting a mouthful of dirt in her mouth.
"You traitor, He Chuan! You're a disloyal bastard! Your mother was being beaten and you didn't even help her, you're just making things difficult for her. Have you lost your conscience?"
He Chuan felt a pang of guilt, but when he saw Hong Ying looking at him angrily, he instantly thought of the scene where his mother had hit Hong Ying and Hong Ying was crying and wanting to go back to her parents' home. He subconsciously squatted down and pretended not to see her.
Actually, being greedy for money is quite good; he even felt that he suddenly had a lot of ambition.
In the past, he would never have stood by and watched his mother be beaten, but today, he actually felt that it was only natural for his mother to be beaten.
Didn't she owe Hongying enough beatings before?
It's really strange; how come he never thought of this before?
The three children crowded around He Chuan, watching their mother and her mother beat their grandmother and second uncle and aunt until they rolled in the yellow earth. They were shocked beyond measure.
What's the difference between this and children fighting while herding sheep or donkeys?
So this is how straightforward adults are when they fight.
"Ouch, ouch, be gentle, my back is killing me!"
Old Mrs. He was pinned to the ground and beaten until she covered her head with her hands, begging for mercy repeatedly.
"Stop hitting me, stop hitting me! I was wrong, okay? Mother-in-law, please stop hitting me. It's making us a laughingstock and dragging Hongying and the child down with us."
"Pah!" Song Chunxue kicked her again. "Now you're enjoying the show? When you beat Hongying before, didn't you know her children would be laughed at? Your own mother being treated like dirt by your in-laws, do you think that's something to be proud of?"
He Er's wife and He Er were sitting on the ground. Just as they were about to get up to help, Song Chunxue kicked them back.
Hongying stood aside, wanting to help, but found that her mother was even more agile than before, and she couldn't get a hand in anything.
Song Chunxue put her hands on her hips and said, "Damn it, you've said all the nice things, what am I supposed to say?"
She said rather arrogantly, "I advise you to say less. Every time you open your mouth, I get so angry that my teeth itch. When I'm angry, I have to vent my anger. Otherwise, I've come all this way just to be humiliated by my in-laws. Wouldn't I have lived in vain?"
"You shameless bastard! The moment you open your mouth and look at your eyes, I want to stomp on your feet. If you say another word of nonsense, I'll beat you so badly you can't get out of bed today."
As she spoke, she pointed at He Er and his wife, "And you two, you've bullied Hongying quite a bit before, haven't you? Whether I beat one or three, it's still the same. Even if I cripple you both today, I'm still in the right. Who told you to treat me like an animal instead of a human being before?"
He Er's face darkened, his face and ears burned, and his thighs ached terribly. He thought to himself, "This woman looks weak, how come she's so fierce when she hits people?"
He Er's wife covered her scalp, feeling as if all her hair had been pulled out. Her calves were aching slightly, and she could only roll her eyes inwardly.
Jiang Hongying found this scene even more miraculous than a divine intervention, and couldn't help but look at He Chuan.
He Chuan stared blankly at the scene before him, wondering if others would call him a member of the He family.
Damn it, everyone says He Chuan is stupid, so he really is stupid.
How could a fool know to protect his second brother and mother? The fact that he can protect his own child is already quite impressive.
Jiang Hongying walked over, squatted down in front of He Chuan, and whispered, "Aren't you angry with my mother?"
"Then I..."
"This is the first time since I married you that I've looked at you with such admiration. I can confidently tell people I married the right person." Jiang Hongying said, her eyes red. "He Chuan, you were a real man today. I don't want a divorce anymore."
"What?" He Chuan's forehead wrinkles appeared. "You really want a divorce?"
"Yes, I've thought about it."
"But I'm already thinking of becoming a live-in son-in-law. You're making me lose face. I'm a man."
Jiang Hongying smiled more comfortably than ever before, "Yes, I know, that's why I won't get a divorce. You can become my family's live-in son-in-law. My mother seems to have quite a bit of money."
She never realized before that He Chuan looked silly when he spoke in a serious tone.
“Yes, it’s good to have money. We won’t be any more pathetic than before.” He Chuan nodded, as if trying to convince himself. “There’s nothing wrong with being a live-in son-in-law. As long as we have money to spend, that’s fine.”
The old woman from the He family sat on the ground, pointing at He Chuan and scolding, "What are you muttering about? Do you really want to become a live-in son-in-law?"
He Chuan stopped talking, put the children on the cart, and started pulling it himself.
"I'll be going now, you guys continue." He Chuan put the rope on his shoulder. "Don't keep the Taoist priest waiting."
"Hey, you heartless little beast, I..." Old Mrs. He was furious.
"That's your child, don't insult yourself like that." Song Chunxue put her hands on her hips. "Have you insulted yourself enough? If not, I'll keep hitting you."
As she spoke, she began rolling up her sleeves again.
"Alright, alright, you can go now. I won't stop you, okay? Move wherever you want, I won't stop you." Old Mrs. He's face was full of bitterness. "Consider me as someone who raised He Chuan for nothing."
Song Chunxue clapped her hands. "Alright, let's go back and start the fire ceremony. Your son is still your son, I can't take him away. Come to the city to find us when you've figured things out."
After venting her anger, she found the old woman from the He family much more agreeable, forgot about the grudge, and even wanted to invite her to join her.
"Would you like to come with us?"
"Hmph, I'm not going. I'm too ashamed to go."
Song Chunxue quickly caught up with her daughter and her family, saying, "You're busy, we still need to go back and prepare a big table of good wine and food."
"..." Old Mrs. He cursed inwardly, wondering what she had to be so busy with.
Taking advantage of everyone's inattention, He Er's wife slunk away.
She didn't want to cook for her wife at night.
The onlookers from the village went forward to watch the spectacle.
"Auntie, was the person who hit you just now Hongying's mother? How come she's so fierce?" the man asked seriously. "Is their family very rich? Are you really willing to let He Chuan become a live-in son-in-law?"
"You're something else. With such a wealthy in-law, why did you beat their daughter? You'll never be able to face He Chuan again. It'll be too embarrassing."
"Shut up and get out!"
"You really don't know what's good for you. I heard that Hongying and the others went to the Jia family compound. Such a magnificent courtyard. You really don't want to stay there?"
