"The village chief is from their family. He beat my son until he vomited blood."
"Village chief, you have to make the decision for me!"
A group of people barged in without even knocking on the door.
Liu was about to stand up, but her grandmother patted her hands soothingly and told her to sit down.
Grandma looked calm and composed.
"Village Chief Lin and the others came over without even knocking on the door. Is there something urgent?"
The village chief's surname was Lin, a man about fifty years old. He was the chief of the northern village, which was divided into four villages: east, west, south, and north.
"I'm sorry, old man. Please don't blame me."
"I brought them here because of the situation. Xiong Da said that his two boys were beaten, vomiting blood and dying in bed. This is a matter of life and death, so I dare not delay."
Village Chief Lin said this in a nice way. Liu Yuhan felt that this person was very smooth and neither party wanted to offend him.
Liu Yuhan was right. The Liu family was exiled to their village, and Village Chief Lin knew some of the inside story, but he was warned not to say a word and to take good care of them.
Looking at the temperament of the Liu family, they are a world apart from the ordinary farmers.
At the beginning, he respected them very much, divided the land among them, ordered the villagers to help them build stone houses, and told them how to survive on the island.
The reason why he did this was that he was wary of the unknown person's identity.
On the other hand, he also wanted to please them. Maybe they could redeem themselves from their wrongs and become prosperous again. Maybe they would see that he took good care of them and would take better care of him in the future.
But year after year, apart from a few people bringing some supplies every year, there was no other change.
It's been 16 years! He's old now, what's he still waiting for? He was a little angry, angry that he was too confident in them, angry that his ideas couldn't be realized.
In recent years, Village Chief Lin has become much colder towards them, and has even revealed their identities intentionally or unintentionally. Even when the Xiong family's kid often took the lead in bullying the Liu family's grandson, he turned a blind eye.
But today's matter has become a bit of a big deal, so let it get bigger.
In fact, where was there any talk of vomiting blood? Where was there any talk of dying? He was just fulfilling their claims and following his own heart, wanting to cause some trouble for the Liu family.
He was now increasingly fed up with their arrogance and innocence, which was so different from the temperament of the peasants themselves.
If Liu Yuhan knew what Village Chief Lin was thinking, he would definitely say in his heart, "Is this man seriously ill?"
Or maybe it's human nature to curry favor with the powerful and bully the weak and fear the strong.
"Village Chief, my two children are seriously injured and bedridden. We must ask their family to compensate us, otherwise I will have to ask the village head for justice."
"Then let's go find the head of the village. My grandson was beaten black and blue and couldn't even eat. What should we do about this? I'm also worried that my grandson has internal injuries. I want to find a doctor for him and ask you for compensation. Everyone around saw that it was the two sons of the Xiong family who bullied our Xiaozhi first, and this bullying of Xiaozhi has happened more than once." said the grandmother.
Her voice was neither fast nor slow, and it was impossible to tell her emotion.
"You're talking nonsense. It was obviously your family who bullied my two sons. If you don't compensate me, I will never let you go. At least 5... at least 10 taels of silver!" A sturdy woman shouted loudly.
"Oh? How did my Xiaozhi bully your two sons? Is it because my Xiaozhi is shorter than your two sons? Or is it because my Xiaozhi is gentle and refined and never takes the initiative to beat or scold others? Or is it because my Xiaozhi lost his mother at such a young age and no one takes care of him? Then wouldn't it be in vain for me to be a father?" Liu Zhijian said slowly.
"You...you...it was this little bitch who beat someone up. This little bitch must not die a good death. We have witnesses who can prove that she was the one who beat someone up." The strong woman pointed at Liu Yuhan and said hatefully.
Behind the strong woman stood the two boys who were watching.
The Liu family was furious when they heard him insulting Liu Yuhan like that, and Liu Shinan was so angry that he wanted to curse back at her.
Seeing so many elders present, Huo Dong didn't want to interfere in the Liu family's affairs. But when he heard the woman pointing at Liu Yuhan and calling her a little bitch, he suddenly became furious. He stood up and walked towards them.
"What do you want? Before the matter is clear, I advise you to keep your mouth shut, or you will regret it later."
When the group of people saw a young man suddenly approaching with cold eyes and an intimidating aura, they couldn't help but take two steps back.
Liu Zhiyuan walked over to Huo Dong and whispered to him, "Don't worry about this matter. It's not appropriate for you to expose it. We can handle it."
"Village Chief Lin, since both sides have their own reasons, let's not waste time and go find the village head now."
"I have a horse here, so it would be better to invite the village head over." Huo Dong said.
Liu Shinan rode a horse with Liu Hong, who was responsible for showing the way. Huo Dong followed behind on horseback, and he went to meet the village head.
Village chief Lin looked very unhappy. Things did not develop as he had imagined.
He hadn't expected so many people to be at the Liu family. Each of them had their own unique aura, and they weren't poorly dressed. He wondered if they were people of status. Had he offended anyone?!
He is now in a difficult situation and can only respond passively.
"The Xiong family, please stop arguing! Since you two families can't reconcile, then just wait for the village head to come. Now all the parties involved should go to my house and wait, and the Xiong family will carry your child over."
Except for great-grandmother, grandmother, Liu, and Liu Qing, everyone followed Village Chief Lin towards his house.
Doctor Liu followed with a medicine box. He said he was a doctor and could help with the diagnosis and treatment. The medicine box was then passed from Liu Yuhan to my uncle.
