The so-called special protection meant that two plainclothes officers would protect her, and of course, Mo Yan would be responsible for the allowance. [This is for plot purposes.]
As soon as she arrived at her doorstep, Old Man Liu rushed over with his relatives, all of them looking fierce and menacing.
When the police saw this, they were shocked and called for reinforcements. It turned into a brawl.
Mo Yan looked at them without any hurry. "What are you doing? Do you know this is illegal? You followed them to beat me up, and then it became a gang fight. This is illegal and you'll go to jail."
[Group fights will result in immediate detention. Don't ask me how I know; my brother was one of the unlucky ones who helped.]
"We don't believe it. We were just helping out. Don't you understand that the law doesn't punish everyone?"
"Yes, yes, we're just here to help."
"Sister-in-law, look at what you're doing! Why aren't you enjoying your life? What are you up to?"
"That's right, can't we just live a good life? Divorce? We'd never even dare to think about that word. A man is the pillar of the family, the breadwinner. You've already had an affair, so it's only right that we scold you a bit, isn't it?"
“We always thought you were a good wife, but look what you’ve done! If everyone were like you and got divorced so easily, how would our village survive?”
"You either apologize to Old Liu today, kneel down and say you'll never do it again, or we'll show you what the rules of our village are."
Listening to what these people were saying, Mo Yan felt a sense of irony.
"An apology is out of the question. This is a society governed by law. If you lay a finger on me, you'll be going to jail."
"So what if I'm divorced? I didn't eat or drink anything from you, what's it to you?"
If you force yourself to compromise because of other people's opinions, then don't say you're not doing well.
Since you gave up on it yourself, what does it matter if others say a few words to you? They can still help you with work or make money. Their opinions are so important to you, so why do you feel wronged?
If things really become unbearable, if you've truly made up your mind, then other people's opinions no longer matter.
Because others won't do your work, won't pay you a salary, won't give you living expenses, and certainly won't give you a future.
"Can't you understand what we're saying? We're doing this for your own good. If you're still stubborn, we'll take action."
"There are no divorced people in our village."
As they were speaking, they moved towards Mo Yan. Old Liu was the first to attack, followed by his brothers.
Mo Yan dodged and weaved, managing to avoid being hurt at all.
"What are you doing? What are you doing? Are you starting a fight?"
The police took them all away, and the kitchen knives and shovels they had were all used as evidence.
More than a dozen people were arrested. Regardless of whether they had committed any acts of violence, they were all detained and their families were notified to send them food.
More than a dozen people were arrested, which became a major event in the village. Mo Yan's lawyer used this as evidence, and a divorce a month later was inevitable.
As for those people, they all cried out that they were wronged.
“We were just there to give them courage; we didn’t lay a hand on them.”
"We really didn't do anything."
As for those who took action, they said, "We were just helping out. She went too far, bullying our Liu family. We were just trying to scare her."
The police watched as they were educated one by one.
"Is this how you try to scare people? By brandishing knives and tools?"
