"This will make things easier for Yun Wansheng."
A hint of unease flashed across Wang Shufen's face; clearly, Yun Duo had hit the nail on the head. However, she quickly put on a dark face and tried to appear completely unashamed as she said to Yun Duo with righteous indignation, "Little brat! Don't talk nonsense! You're not a mind reader; how would you know what we're thinking?"
"Do you think I don't know you? You're just afraid that the old man will accept one of our grandsons, and that he'll leave all the family property to a grandson like Fusheng, leaving you with nothing."
"You've been talking badly about us to the old man, haven't you? You little brat, you've got a really vicious heart..."
"But what's the use? From ancient times to the present, everything in this house has been left to the children and grandchildren. You'd better not be delusional! If you're smart, you'll stop talking badly about us to the old man. Then I can get your brothers Fusheng and Wansheng to give you a bigger dowry. Otherwise, you'll be left with nothing. Look at those who buy wives—the dull, the stupid, the old, the ones with nothing at home—who else would marry you!"
Before Yun Duo could say anything after Wang Shufang said that, Gu Wu's face darkened, and he suddenly scolded, "Shut up! You old hag, can't you speak properly? Should I wash your mouth for you so you don't spout nonsense in front of a young girl?"
"Or perhaps you'd like to experience what it's like to have your jaw ripped off?"
"If you want to try, say one more word, and see if I dare to take it off for you!"
"I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, that cowardly son of yours, I, your Uncle Wu, dislocated his chin. You've been rambling on and on for so long, isn't that all you're here for?"
"Come on, come at me! See if I'll hit a woman!"
"Let me tell you, let alone something as easy as dislocating your jaw, even if I crushed the bone in your jaw so you could never fully recover, I, your Master Wu, could do it all with ease. If you don't believe me, then try saying one more word. Come on, say it. I've been waiting for you to open your mouth!"
As Gu Wu spoke, he rolled up the sleeves of his clothes, revealing the firm, muscular flesh on his arms.
People, especially those of questionable character, are more likely to bully the weak and fear the strong, and to prey on the kind and fear the wicked. Wang Shufen, a hypocrite with sweet words but bitter heart, is no exception. Although she felt resentful and even tried to express her grievances and resentment through her eyes, she was ultimately afraid.
As a result, he dared not utter another word.
However, she didn't forget to glare at Yun Duo with her sharp eyes.
What a troublemaker! Look at the kind of people she's messed with at such a young age! Let's not even talk about the county magistrate. He's not just showing respect to a little girl like her; he's showing respect to a big shot like himself.
But who is this 'Leopard Lord' in the county? Such a vicious man, who is said to have taken many lives, would actually become the protector of a little girl like her.
Leopard didn't say anything more. After all, they were far apart, and he probably wouldn't care about such trivial matters.
But now, this guy with all those bumpy muscles, who looks incredibly fierce, is protecting her?
