Seeing Gu Meiying so frightened and at a loss, Xiao Lian's courage grew even stronger.
He rushed forward and pulled Gu Meiying into a tight embrace.
Immediately afterwards, he used all his strength to grab Gu Meiying's body and drag her towards the door.
At the same time, Xiao Lian kept shouting.
"Dad! Come quick and lend a hand! We have to get this woman back home. Tonight, I'm going to sleep with her. Once it's a fait accompli, she'll still be one of us! If she ever dares to turn against us again, I'll beat her to a pulp!"
Standing to the side, Xiao Changsuo was genuinely surprised that his second son would be so audacious.
However, after hearing Xiao Lian's words, he couldn't help but feel a stirring in his heart and pondered to himself.
Yes, the second brother's words make sense. Now, the eldest brother, Xiao Feng, is missing, and he even eloped with Xiao Lian's wife. Who knows if they have met with misfortune or perished?
Therefore, the responsibility of continuing the family line naturally fell on the shoulders of the second son, Xiao Lian.
As I grow older and am about to enter my twilight years, if I cannot even leave behind a son or daughter, wouldn't I be ashamed before my ancestors?
Besides, since the eldest brother has been heartless and unjust in running off with the second brother's wife, what's wrong with letting the second brother use the eldest brother's wife to fill the void?
Thinking of this, Xiao Changsuo no longer hesitated and strode forward quickly. Together with Xiao Lian, the two of them each grabbed one of Gu Meiying's arms and forcibly dragged her out.
Gu Meiying retreated desperately, her face filled with terror, as if there were two ferocious wild beasts in front of her.
But how could her delicate body withstand two strong men?
She kept kicking her feet, trying to stop herself from being dragged away, but it was all in vain.
"You beasts! You two inhuman beasts! Let me go! Let me go!"
Gu Meiying screamed and cursed at the top of her lungs, her voice filled with despair and fear.
However, Xiao Changsuo and Xiao Lian acted as if they hadn't heard her at all, ignoring her cries and continuing to drag her forward relentlessly.
At this moment, Xiao Feng, who was hiding in the corner and witnessed this scene, was instantly enraged to the extreme.
He clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug deep into his palms, veins bulged on his forehead, and his eyes were wide open, as if they were about to pop out.
Finally, he could no longer bear it.
"Stop! Stop it right now! Let her go!"
Xiao Feng roared and threw the wooden stick he had been using to beat the dog and the broken bowl he used for begging onto the ground.
With a crisp sound, the stick and the broken bowl rolled a few times on the ground and then came to a stop.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Feng emerged from the corner like an enraged lion, and sprinted towards the group of people, shouting loudly as he did so.
Xiao Changsuo and Xiao Lian were nervously dragging Gu Meiying forward when they suddenly heard a sharp scream coming from not far away.
The sudden sound made them both jump, and their hands involuntarily paused for a moment.
After all, what they were doing at that moment was not a respectable business, and if they were caught by others, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Thinking of this, the two of them couldn't help but feel a little flustered and guilty.
However, when they finally saw the figure rushing towards them, their hearts, which had been hanging in suspense, instantly settled back into their stomachs.
It turned out that the visitor was a ragged, unkempt beggar!
"Damn it, where did this stinking beggar come from? Get the hell out of my way! This is none of your business!"
Xiao Lian was the first to react. He angrily cursed at the beggar, then ignored him and continued dragging Gu Meiying forward.
However, to their utter surprise, this seemingly frail beggar showed no sign of stopping.
He flew up behind Xiao Changsuo and Xiao Lian like a gust of wind, and then with a burst of strength from both hands, easily pushed them aside.
Then, the beggar nimbly reached out a hand, grabbed Gu Meiying's arm tightly, and pulled her behind him.
At the same time, he leaned forward, firmly blocking the path of Xiao Changsuo and his son, displaying a stance of never giving an inch.
Both Xiao Changsuo and his son were suddenly pushed by Xiao Feng, and their bodies involuntarily staggered backward.
Xiao Changsuo, in particular, is quite old and his legs and feet are no longer as nimble and agile as they were when he was young.
After taking several steps back, he still couldn't regain his balance and finally fell heavily onto the cold, hard ground.
"father!"
Upon seeing this, Xiao Lian cried out anxiously and rushed to Xiao Changsuo's side, reaching out his hands to help him up from the ground with great effort.
"Dad, are you alright?"
Xiao Lian held the old man's slightly thin arm tightly, his eyes scanning his entire body several times with anxious concern, trying to make sure that his father had not suffered any injury or fall due to the sudden trip.
