Gu Changzheng trembled slightly.
Lu Huaijiao tugged at his clothes, sniffling, her eyes red-rimmed, looking like she had been badly bullied.
Even though Gu Changzheng knew perfectly well that the man was faking it.
But I still can't stop feeling heartache.
He raised his head and squinted at Li Xiaoya, who was hanging her head in the field.
"Li Xiaoya, are you saying my wife wronged you?" Gu Changzheng's voice was cold and his attitude was unpredictable. His attitude was inexplicably frightening.
"She would wrong you? Who do you think you are?"
Li Xiaoya had always secretly liked Gu Changzheng, so she felt quite wronged when Gu Changzheng asked her such a cold question.
"Brother Changzheng..."
Who are you calling Brother Long March?
Lu Huaijiao spoke first.
Her tone was extremely arrogant, and her bright almond-shaped eyes glared at Li Xiaoya: "Li Xiaoya, have you no shame? What kind of relationship do you have with my husband that you call him 'brother'?"
Li Xiaoya: ……
Lu Huaijiao is such an idiot, why doesn't she just die?
Li Xiaoya raised her head, a flash of murderous intent crossing her eyes.
"You're asking for it!"
Gu Changzheng moved his feet, wanting to go forward and settle accounts with Li Xiaoya.
He doesn't have a rule about not hitting women. Oh, no, I should say that in his eyes, the only women he considers to be Lu Huaijiao and He Meizhu are Lu Huaijiao and He Meizhu.
Everyone else, regardless of who they are, is treated equally.
"Comrade Li Xiaoya." Gu Jianhua, realizing his son's intentions, spoke up in time. He took a step in front of Gu Changzheng, blocking him, and looked at Li Xiaoya, saying, "Are you really not going to admit it? Did you hit someone?"
"I didn't hit him!"
Li Xiaoya is still being stubborn.
Lu Huaijiao sneered, "Li Xiaoya, you liar, you're saying you didn't get it? So the lump on my back is from me injecting myself?"
"Li Xiaoya, how can you be so vicious? You have the guts to hit someone, but why can't you admit it?"
Lu Huaijiao spoke up, and Gu Changzheng and Gu Jianhua both stared at Li Xiaoya.
Under Gu Changzheng's icy gaze and Gu Jianhua's imposing stare, Li Xiaoya's defenses finally crumbled! She raised her head and let out a desperate scream.
"So what if I hit you? Didn't you see that Lu Huaijiao, that stinky woman, also scratched my face?" Li Xiaoya turned her scratched face around so that Gu Changzheng and Gu Jianhua could see it.
Gu Changzheng ignored it.
Gu Jianhua did not make any statement.
It wasn't because Gu Jianhua was biased, but because the scratches on Li Xiaoya's cheeks were so shallow that they could be called scratches or cuts from corn leaves.
Li Xiaoya is a habitual liar; who knows if she's wrongly accusing Lu Huaijiao?
The father and son remained silent, but Lu Huaijiao couldn't let Li Xiaoya 'wrongly accuse' her like this. She snorted and said, "Li Xiaoya, you say I grabbed you, but if you hadn't hit me, would I have grabbed you? Did I scratch your face? I just wanted to give you a gentle warning."
"You!" Li Xiaoya was furious with Lu Huaijiao. "Lu Huaijiao, you are the most shameless and vicious woman."
Lu Huaijiao: ? ? ? ?
Is she vicious? Is she shameless?
Li Xiaoya is really good at lying through her teeth.
Lu Huaijiao didn't want to waste any more words with Li Xiaoya; her back was still hurting, and she needed to go home to apply medicine.
Li Xiaoya doesn't want to admit it, does she? She has ways to make her admit it.
“Fourth brother, let’s go report to the police and accuse Li Xiaoya, an educated youth, of assaulting people. My back injury can serve as evidence.”
Gu Changzheng hummed in agreement, then took her hand and started to leave.
Seeing that they were really leaving, Li Xiaoya cried out anxiously, "Lu Huaijiao, what do you want?" If this matter went to the police, it would affect Li Xiaoya's return to the city.
Therefore, faced with Lu Huaijiao's threats, Li Xiaoya ultimately chose to compromise.
“I’m the one who hit you, what do you want? Tell me.” Li Xiaoya pinched her nose and spoke slowly, clearly displeased.
Lu Huaijiao was waiting for Li Xiaoya to say those words.
She stopped, turned around to look at Li Xiaoya, tilted her head slightly, and smiled: "You admit it?"
Li Xiaoya: ……
Ultimately, the dispute, which was started by Li Xiaoya, ended with Li Xiaoya apologizing and paying Lu Huaijiao fifty yuan in compensation.
When Li Xiaoya heard that she had to pay fifty yuan in compensation, her hands and feet went cold.
Fifty yuan! That's fifty yuan! It would take her three or four months of work, even if she didn't eat or drink, to save up that much money. Why should Lu Huaijiao ask for fifty yuan so easily?
But she looked completely unfazed, as if fifty yuan wasn't a big deal.
Li Xiaoya was so angry that she almost ground her teeth to powder.
"What? You don't want to give it to me?" Lu Huaijiao asked with a smile.
Her meaning was clear: if Li Xiaoya paid, the matter would be over. If she wasn't willing to pay, then it wasn't over. She could go to the police if necessary, and how the higher-ups dealt with Li Xiaoya would be none of her business.
Lu Huaijiao's threat was blatant.
So Li Xiaoya was well aware of the situation, but she had no other way to deal with Lu Huaijiao.
This left Li Xiaoya feeling extremely frustrated.
In the end, she had no choice but to accept the debt. Since Li Xiaoya had no money, only work points recorded in the brigade's account, she could only use those work points to offset the debt to the brigade. She borrowed fifty yuan and gave it to Lu Huaijiao.
