Chapter 144 Beat My Husband to Death
Su Nuan sneered, "Then tell me what you were going to do at my house, and why did you go there so late at night?"
Er Laizi got up and said with a grim face: "I just wanted to take two pieces of firewood. It is a custom in our village to steal firewood during the New Year."
Su Nuan narrowed her eyes. Stealing firewood? Firewood... money?
She understood and sneered, "No matter what you steal, even if it's just a blade of grass, it's still stealing. Do you think everyone has the same status and no one can do anything to you if you don't follow the rules?"
Er Laizi indeed had such a mentality. He felt that the Ling family, who were once high and mighty, were now of the same status as him. Why should they be able to enjoy a life of luxury while he was left starving?
So he joined forces with several families to cause trouble. When the Ling family was tired from quarreling during the day, they would go to bed early at night, and he could go and steal some meat. Even if he couldn't find any meat, he could get the three chubby puppies out and have a good meal.
But who could have known that these three puppies were so smart, not only did they keep silent and prevent him from finding his location, but they also bit him so badly.
Thinking of this, he became furious and swung his arm to slap Su Nuan in the face.
Su Nuan took a step back, and Er Laizi fell to the ground again before he could catch himself.
He cursed obscenely: "Bitch, pay me back."
Su Nuan stepped on Er Laizi's back, and a dagger appeared in her hand. She mercilessly carved a word "steal" on Er Laizi's back.
Er Laizi screamed miserably, "Ah... I'm going to kill you..."
Su Nuan raised her foot and kicked Er Laizi hard. Er Laizi rolled on the ground for a few times and finally fainted because he could not bear it anymore.
Blood spilled on the white snow, a shocking red.
The people around were stunned by Su Nuan's ruthlessness and fell silent.
Su Nuan looked around and said, "There were five other people who came to my house yesterday to cause trouble."
"Don't think you can climb over my head and do whatever you want just because you haven't left the fifth generation."
"First, my last name isn't Ling. Second, I haven't eaten a single grain of your rice, so there's no friendship. Third, I'm the head of the Ling family now. I didn't know the rules before, but now you all follow my rules."
Someone whispered, "Isn't this a rebellion against the Tian Gang? The Ling family's old lady and mother-in-law are all here, and a new daughter-in-law is trying to take charge of the family? How can she be so confident?"
Another person said: "I think they are all afraid of this bitch. I guess this bitch not only beat the mother-in-law but also the old lady."
"Yeah, I think so too. Otherwise, why would the Ling family listen to her?"
"Yes, she must be using Ling Cang as a threat. If he doesn't obey, she will leave him."
Someone suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. It makes sense. It must be like this."
Some people were skeptical and said, "But isn't Ling Yun very powerful? How come he can't even beat a little woman? I think they are willing to listen to her."
Another person analyzed, "They're probably using Ling Cang as a threat. It's said that Ling Cang has become a living dead and hasn't woken up yet."
Everyone held the mentality that the law does not punish the masses, and the discussions were like countless flies gathering together, with all kinds of things being said.
Su Nuan automatically ignored these bad words, and with a flick of the whip in her hand, she rushed into the crowd, grabbed the collars of the five people written by the old lady and threw them next to Er Laizi.
She knew these people: her plump cousin, the round-faced old woman and her thin daughter-in-law, the third uncle of the Ling family and his son.
These five people had once caused trouble for the Ling family in the first town after leaving the capital, but no one expected them to still dare to cause trouble.
I didn't want to punish you severely last time, but now, I'm sorry, you will be skinned alive if you don't die.
The five people probably knew they were in the wrong, or they were frightened by Er Laizi's miserable condition, so they kept silent.
Su Nuan narrowed her eyes and flicked the whip. "I thought you had seen the reality clearly along the way, but now it seems I overestimated you. The exiled prisoners have arrived safely, and it wouldn't be surprising if a few of them froze to death in the winter."
The implication is that their lives are worthless, serve no purpose, and their deaths are in vain.
The fat cousin shuddered, then suddenly came to her senses and knelt on the ground, kowtowed continuously.
"Auntie, I was wrong. I shouldn't have listened to others' instigation. I was wrong..."
After saying that, she raised her hand and slapped her face, which soon became red and swollen.
Su Nuan watched coldly, and only spoke when her lips broke, "Well, admitting one's mistakes is the best way to improve. You can go now."
The fat cousin jumped up and ran very fast.
The fat woman didn't want to hit herself, so she swung her hand and slapped the daughter-in-law next to her, "Bitch, it's all because of your bad mouth. If you hadn't been so badmouthing, would I have gone with you?"
The thin woman covered her face and shook her head, "Mom, I didn't..."
Su Nuan sneered, "Don't think you can gain her mercy by giving in. If you don't protect yourself, how will you protect your child in the future?"
The thin woman's eyes shone when she heard this, and she pushed the fat woman away with force. "It's all your fault, it's all your fault that I had a miscarriage. So many people who were exiled gave birth to their children safely, but mine was the only one who lost one. It's all your fault!"
At that moment, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law rolled together, scratching their faces, pulling their hair, and biting their ears... It was so lively.
Su Nuan turned her gaze away from the two of them and looked at her third uncle, "Don't think that just because you and my husband are not within the fifth degree of kinship, he will respect you and let you have whatever you want."
"Every blade of grass and every tree in the Ling family belongs to me now. I can only give it to them if I say so. If I say no, who would dare to give it to them?"
"I still say that there is no affection between you and me. If you provoke me, I will kill you. If you respect me, I can help you."
An old lady shouted, "Su is a good person. I exchanged a broken hairpin for fish, and not only did she not despise it, but she also gave me a share of any fish she had because I had just given birth."
The old lady next to her also said: "Let's not talk about the kindness of this fish. We encountered robbers along the way. Who led the troops up the mountain to find the robbers?"
"The robbers blocked the road, who was standing on the roof to protect us? It was the Su family. You can't be ungrateful."
Su Nuan smiled slightly. This was the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who exchanged a jade hairpin for fish.
A naive voice said, "Yes, she is very kind. Knowing that my wife is pregnant, she let me get an egg a day. After I got the meat I was entitled to, she also gave me an ounce of meat to make soup for my wife to drink. This gave my wife the strength to give birth to the child."
"Whoever dares to bully the Su family, I will be the first to be unhappy. Step over... over me!"
Su Nuan smiled slightly. Fortunately, she was good at judging people and those she helped were not ungrateful.
She could see that the grateful people were speaking for her, and a strange emotion emerged in her heart, a little excited, a little happy, and a little... proud.
She had never experienced this feeling before and didn't know what it was.
She suppressed this feeling, pointed at her third uncle and asked, "Tell me, what do you want us to do?"
Third uncle burst into tears instantly, "It's what you want me to do, not what I want you to do, wuwu..."
An old man actually cried so miserably!
Su Nuan was about to speak when a group of soldiers came running towards them on horseback.
Er Laizi's wife also saw the soldiers. She rushed out and threw herself on him, wailing, "Sir, that little bitch beat my husband to death!"
