Chapter 275 Still want to go for a swim?
Lan Hua sniffed, took a deep breath, and said, "I made an appointment with the girls from the village to come to the county town to sell ribbons today, but I didn't sell any this morning. Later, I heard that there are many girls traveling around here, so we thought we could try our luck here and came over."
"I had only sold two ribbons when I ran into those young masters. They blocked my way and wouldn't let me go. They said they weren't familiar with this peach grove and that if I showed them around, they would buy all the ribbons I had. I disagreed, and they tried to grope me. I couldn't even dodge them. Suddenly, my third uncle appeared and saved me. Then those guys pushed him into the water."
Shu Yu understood. It turned out that these spoiled brats, after failing to harass Lu Sanzhu, became enraged and, seeing that Lu Sanzhu was alone and not from a wealthy or powerful family, resorted to violence.
This shows that they knew Lu Sanzhu and Lan Hua had no powerful backers, so they acted recklessly.
Shu Yu nodded. "I understand. You stand at the back. I'll handle this."
As they were talking, the other people gradually emerged from the water.
Shu Yu squatted down, picked up a bamboo pole, pointed it at the group of people who were angrily coming to settle scores with her, and sneered, "What, you want to swim another lap?"
"You, you brat, you're asking for it! Do you even know who we are? How dare you lay a hand on us?"
“I don’t know who you are,” Shu Yu said in a deep voice. “I only know that you pushed my third uncle into the water and then stood guard on the shore to prevent him from getting ashore. This is murder, you are treating human life like dirt, you are murderers.”
Shu Yu spoke each word with exceptional force and conviction, completely intimidating the three young men.
The next moment, he came to his senses and immediately flew into a rage, "Disregard human life? Then you pushed all of us into the water just now, weren't you also committing murder? Aren't you a murderer too?"
“You’re right, we both pushed people into the water. So I suggest we report it to the authorities.” As soon as Shu Yu finished speaking, she saw the expressions on the faces of the people opposite her change. It seemed that Lu Sanzhu was right, and her guess was correct. “Let’s go to the government office and explain things to the upright official. Anyway, you started it. I was just in a hurry to save people and lost my sense of proportion. And what about you? You blocked people from getting ashore with bamboo poles.”
"You, you..."
The young master who had spoken earlier was so angry that he couldn't speak. The remaining two laughed angrily, "Why waste words with this brat? You guys, get her! I'm going to strip her clothes off and throw her into the water so everyone can have a good look."
Shu Yu's expression suddenly turned cold, and she abruptly swung the bamboo pole in her hand, striking him directly in the mouth.
The man instantly flew into a rage and shouted to his servants behind him, "Why aren't you going to arrest them?"
The group immediately swarmed forward, but Shu Yu was not only angry but also had a weapon in her hand. Without saying a word, she swung it at them.
Some people squatted down and picked up bamboo poles to fight her, but Shu Yu pushed them into the water again.
The thumping sounds continued, and the onlookers burst into laughter.
Anyone with eyes could see that these young masters were being dishonest, but since the other party wasn't an ordinary citizen, they didn't dare to side with Shu Yu and offend him.
Just when things were getting out of control, someone finally ran over from afar.
