Yun Ningyan knew from this scene that there was going to be a good show!
Huo Junshan looked into her bright, sparkling eyes and smiled, "Shall we go take a look together?"
"Okay, okay! Let's go!"
She pulled Huo Junshan towards the Huo family home. Huo Junshan smiled indulgently and led her back to the Huo family home.
Li Xiangyun, holding Huo Dasao's hair with one hand and Wang Cuilian with the other, grabbed a broom and started whipping Huo Dasao's buttocks as soon as they entered the Huo family's courtyard.
Wang Cuilian was so frightened that she shrank into the corner and dared not make a sound.
Sister-in-law Huo covered her bottom, crying and dodging, "Mother, Mother, please stop hitting me! I was wrong, I'll never do it again."
She had a loud voice, which attracted people who came home from work to come and laugh at her. A crowd gathered at the Huo family's door, peering inside.
"Why did Huo's wife get beaten up again?"
"Did you do something wrong again after just returning from your parents' home?"
Aunt Ma was also in the crowd. She was happiest when the Huo family got into trouble, and she couldn't wait for the Huo family to suffer. She added fuel to the fire.
"Li Xiangyun is abusing her daughter-in-law again. If she were my daughter-in-law, I would treat her like royalty every day. It's so hard to find a wife these days. Li Xiangyun torments her every day."
Li Xiangyun was in the middle of a good beating. Wang Cuihong was getting out of control and had become incredibly audacious, daring to scheme against Lao San's marriage. Even if the Emperor himself came today, she was bound to get a beating.
Huo's sister-in-law stumbled and fell to the ground. Li Xiangyun pulled off her shoe and slapped her with it. Although Huo's sister-in-law was a scoundrel, she didn't dare to fight back against her mother-in-law.
In this day and age, it's okay for a mother-in-law to hit her daughter-in-law, but as long as she doesn't want a divorce, she shouldn't even think about fighting back.
Sister-in-law Huo cried and wailed, and finally clung to Li Xiangyun's leg, refusing to let go.
Yun Ningyan's lips twitched as she watched.
Huo Junshan looked helpless. His mother was too fierce! What if she scared the little girl away?
He patted Yun Ningyan's head and comforted her, "My mother doesn't usually hit people. She only hit her this time because she was really angry. Don't be afraid."
Yun Ningyan blushed. How could he say that in front of so many people? Luckily, his voice was soft and no one heard him, otherwise it would have been difficult to explain. Besides, she hadn't agreed to marry him.
Yun Ningyan pouted and ignored him.
Li Xiangyun kicked Wang Cuihong away.
Aunt Ma outside was egging them on, saying, "Li Xiangyun, you've gone too far! This is mistreating your daughter-in-law! Wang Cuihong can report you to the Women's Federation!"
Seeing that this old hag still dared to sow discord, Li Xiangyun pointed at Granny Ma's nose and cursed, "This matter is also related to you. Did you incite my daughter-in-law? Your own son can't find a wife, so you want others to suffer too."
Aunt Ma jumped back a few steps, hopping on her feet as she cursed back, "Li Xiangyun, what does it have to do with me that you hit your daughter-in-law? You blame me just because something happened to your family? Is there no justice in this world?"
When Wang Cuilian asked me which educated youth Huo Laosan was dating, how could I not tell her? The whole brigade knows, it's not just me who knows. Even if you all know, I'm not afraid.
Upon hearing Madam Ma's thoughts, Huo Junshan's face darkened to a grim degree.
Yun Ning walked to the corner, scooped Wang Cuilian up, and threw her at Aunt Ma's feet. She sneered, "This girl, how do you know where I live? What's my name? You've caused a fight with Aunt Li's family. Do you think anyone will want you after this blows up? Forget about the Huo family!"
Wang Cuilian didn't intend for things to get this serious. She only wanted Ma Da Niang's son to ruin Yun Ningyan's reputation, but she never thought that she wouldn't be able to marry into the Huo family.
She thought for a while and decided that she didn't want to offend anyone before marrying into the Huo family, otherwise the Huo family would be even less likely to marry her.
She gritted her teeth and confessed to Aunt Ma, "Aunt Ma told me! She said you and Huo Junshan are close, and she also told me your name is Yun Ningyan. This has nothing to do with me. Aunt Ma wants to see the Huo family make a fool of themselves. She did it on purpose."
Wang Cuilian pointed at Granny Ma and said sternly.
Aunt Ma's heart trembled as she recalled the 20 eggs she had given away last time.
She immediately turned hostile, "You little bitch! Why would I tell you if you didn't ask me? You even tried to ruin Yun Zhiqing's reputation, why didn't you say that?"
"My God! How can this girl be so heartless? She doesn't even know Yun Zhiqing, yet she's going to ruin his reputation? Whoever marries her is doomed. If she's unhappy after marrying him, she might even poison him to death!"
Wang Cuilian never expected that Aunt Ma would dare to say anything, so she immediately went all out and sternly rebuked her.
"You're making baseless accusations! It's your son who has taken a liking to Yun Ningyan and wants to ruin her reputation so he can marry her into your family! I heard you and your son talking to each other with my own ears."
"You little bitch, how dare you slander my son! I'll beat you to death! You heartless bastard!"
Aunt Ma never expected that this young girl would be able to distort the truth. She took off her shoes and pounced on Wang Cuilian to hit her.
She straddled Wang Cuilian and used the sole of her shoe to slap her face repeatedly, knocking out two of her teeth and causing her to spit out a mouthful of blood.
Sister-in-law Huo was startled by this scene and didn't dare to say a word. She wanted to go up and help her cousin up, but Aunt Ma was too fierce.
Wang Cuilian didn't let her off the hook either, scratching Ma Da Niang's face until it bled.
"Stop!" The captain arrived unexpectedly and shouted angrily. The crowd dispersed automatically, and the captain entered the courtyard.
He glanced around the courtyard. Wang Cuihong was crying incessantly, her younger sister-in-law looked furious, and Aunt Ma was covered in blood, her clothes were tattered, and her hair was disheveled. She looked like a madwoman and was in a very sorry state.
There was another person lying on the ground, it was Wang Cuilian. He recognized this girl, wasn't she the one he had arranged a marriage for with the third brother? She had also been beaten so badly that she couldn't get up.
When Yun Ningyan heard that they wanted to ruin her reputation, her face darkened. Her voice was icy cold as she said sternly to the captain, "Captain, I have no grudge against them, yet they want to ruin my reputation. I'm going to report this to the police!"
The captain rubbed his forehead in exasperation; his head was buzzing the moment he saw the girl there.
"Third brother, you tell me what's going on?" He pointed at Huo Junshan while holding his pipe.
......
The captain was even more troubled after hearing what had happened.
It's not just this girl's problem; it also involves her younger brother's family. If he doesn't handle it properly, his younger brother, Changgen, will go to their house and cause trouble.
The brigade leader glared at Granny Ma, thinking, "That old woman can't even manage her own family affairs."
The captain found a stool and sat down. He asked Huo Changgen, "Changgen, this is your family matter. How do you want to handle it?"
Huo Changgen was so angry that his hands were trembling. He didn't even glance at Wang Cuihong. He regretted marrying this daughter-in-law very much. If it weren't for the two children, he would have made his eldest son divorce her long ago!
But now they dare to scheme against his son's marriage. He can't tolerate it. Without an explanation, his family will no longer want this daughter-in-law.
Huo Jianguo opened his mouth, wanting to plead for mercy, but he couldn't bring himself to say it. He couldn't understand what his wife was thinking. Just because the third brother had given meat to Yun Zhiqing a few times, she wanted to interfere between the two of them.
Huo Changgen looked at Huo Jianguo: "Eldest son, we can't afford your wife! Send her back to her parents' home! None of my four sons are married yet. If she keeps coming like this, will your brothers never get married? Do we, the Huo family, have any face left?"
