During a break in the beating, Song Yaozu frantically waved and shouted at the two police officers.
A villager nearby stepped forward to ask for help at just the right moment.
"Officer, my house was burgled a couple of days ago. A bag of flour was stolen from my house. Could you please help me investigate?"
He Yaoqing and Lu Qunli felt as if they had been granted a pardon. Without saying a word, they followed the villagers to the side to find out what was going on, seemingly ignoring Song Yaozu's cries for help.
Song Yaozu had already grabbed He Yaoqing's trouser leg, originally intending to cling to their legs and beg for help.
He's clinging to the police; these guys can't exactly attack the police too, can they?
However, he did not expect that his plan would fall apart. He Yaoqing actually pulled his trouser leg out of his hand, as if he had not heard his cries for help.
Song Yaozu has never felt so desperate.
He wasn't stupid; seeing that asking for help was useless, he immediately thought of giving in and begging for mercy.
Song Yaozu cautiously turned his head, forcing out an awkward smile.
"that……"
Before he could even finish speaking, Zhu Chunzhu's fist came flying at him without any mercy.
"ah--!!"
A scream rang out, and two front teeth flew out of Song Yaozu's mouth.
Song Yaozu was completely humiliated.
His head was buried in the ground, blood kept seeping from his gums, and he kept vomiting.
His mouth was filled with the metallic taste of blood, and he felt so nauseous that he almost vomited up the food he had eaten the day before.
The villagers watched with great delight, cheering continuously.
"Well done!"
"I've long disliked those three shameless scoundrels from the Song family. Today, finally someone can teach them a lesson!"
"They should be punched a few more times to teach them a lesson!"
"This kind of scoundrel deserves to be beaten to death!"
"Well done, Brother Chunzhu!"
While punching Song Yaozu, Zhu Chunzhu also turned to take care of her sister's feelings.
"Little sister, tell your brother what this bastard did to you, and I'll get revenge for you now."
"If he dares to touch you, I'll grab a knife and chop his hand off right now!"
Song Yaozu was so frightened that his hair stood on end. He desperately crawled to Zhu Chunhong's feet and kept begging.
"I was wrong, I was wrong, isn't that enough?"
"Ancestor, you are my ancestor from now on! Tell your brother to stop right now, or I'll be beaten to death!"
Song Yaozu had two teeth knocked out, and a broken molar was accidentally swallowed. He now feels a chill when he breathes in, and his mouth is full of blood.
Even the slightest movement causes severe pain in the gums, making it difficult to speak clearly and causing slurred speech.
Seeing Song Yaozu beaten black and blue, clutching his leg and begging for mercy, Zhu Chunhong finally let out the pent-up anger in her heart.
Zhu Chunhong and Xie Mingzhu exchanged a glance, and finally a smile appeared on their faces.
Xie Mingzhu was still a little worried about Zhu Chunhong, knowing that she was about to leave.
After all, that's the prevailing attitude in this village. If someone is bullied and no one can stand up for them, others will be eager to join in the bullying.
Today it's Song Yaozu, but who knows who it will be tomorrow.
Only by fighting back on the spot and venting our anger can we deter other malicious individuals from ever daring to make a move again.
Seeing his father and brother come back to support Zhu Chunhong, he instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
That's great, now she doesn't have to worry about Zhu Chunhong's situation after she leaves.
Zhu Chuanjin and Zhu Chunzhu threw countless punches, thoroughly venting Zhu Chunhong's anger. In the end, they barely managed to give Song Yaozu a moment's relief and stopped.
On the other side, Song Yongfu and He Caixia were also beaten half to death. They were immediately handcuffed by He Yaoqing and Lu Qunli, who had just returned after resolving other villagers' issues. They then called on their colleagues to temporarily keep the people under control.
Song Yaozu was arrested by the police on charges of hooliganism.
Because he had been beaten to the point of being delirious and unable to walk, he was simply dragged into the car by his clothes.
Zhou Dawei's parents, Zhou Dazhu and Cui Lanhua, carefully hid in the crowd and watched for a long time.
They had originally planned to observe the situation, wait for Song Yongfu and He Caixia to start a fight and gain the upper hand, then rush out to question Song Zhaodi about where their son had gone, and drag her home to continue working as her slaves.
But now, seeing the situation, it's not at all what they imagined.
Let alone dragging Song Zhaodi back, judging from how she's being fawned over, if they dared to lay a finger on her, their hands would probably be broken off, and they'd be arrested and thrown in jail.
The two swallowed hard, shrank back, and cautiously tried to retreat home to avoid getting burned.
However, Huang Meiling and Xie Wenyuan clearly had no intention of letting them off the hook.
Just as the Zhou couple turned around to make their escape, they heard a loud shout from behind them.
"Stop right there!"
Zhou Dazhu and his wife froze, glanced at each other, swallowed hard, forced a smile, turned back, and carefully considered their form of address.
"Dear...in-law..."
Huang Meiling's face darkened.
"Who are your in-laws!"
Are you trying to run away?
Huang Meiling narrowed her eyes.
"You all tolerated Zhou Dawei, this domestic abuser, inflicting so much real harm on my daughter. Are you just going to hide away and not address this issue?"
Are you even human?!
"Thinking you can just let it go won't be that easy!"
Zhou Dazhu and Cui Lanhua exchanged a glance, put on insincere smiles, and said—
"No...how could that be?"
"Really? Then tell me, how do you plan to make amends for the harm done to my daughter?"
Zhou Dazhu and Cui Lanhua pursed their lips.
They had just witnessed the entire ordeal the Song family had suffered, and now they dared not show any arrogance whatsoever. In fact, they were so frightened that their faces turned pale, and they shrank back like quails, carefully trying to find excuses for themselves.
“We…we didn’t mean to run away, it’s just…we felt guilty when we saw Zhao Di…yes, guilty, so we didn’t have the face to face her, that’s why we decided to go home, so as not to upset Zhao Di when she sees us.”
Huang Meiling and Xie Wenyuan clearly did not intend to accept this explanation and continued to look at them coldly.
The two were also aware that their excuses were too flimsy and untenable.
Faced with Xie Wenyuan and Huang Meiling's cold and terrifying gazes, the two were so frightened that they almost lost their souls, fearing that if they disagreed, they would also be pinned to the ground and beaten like He Caixia and her husband.
They never had the same domineering attitude as the Song couple. Now, facing Huang Meiling and Xie Wenyuan, they could already imagine how painful it would be to have their faces swollen like He Caixia and her husband's.
The two were so scared and couldn't bear the psychological pressure that they simply gave up.
