"You bitch, where did you come from? Let me go! Is there no law in your Houshui Village? You dare to kill me?"
Everyone who came out of Bear Ridge this morning knows that if I don't return unscathed, you'll be in for a world of hurt!
Liang Damei was choked and barely managed to break free. Just as she was about to stand up, Cheng Yue pressed her down again, leaving her unable to move and making her even angrier.
They threatened her that she would never return, and she refused to believe that anyone would dare to harm her!
"Slap! Slap!" Cheng Yue grabbed Liang Damei's hair and pulled it back, then raised her right hand and swung it twice.
"Can't you speak properly? Can't you shut your mouth? If you can't, I don't mind helping you!"
The onlookers were already stunned. In their minds, Cheng Yue had always been weak. Even after the family separated and started their own business, she was still gentle and always had a smiling face. When had she ever been so ruthless?
But upon further reflection, it becomes clear that this is simply protecting one's own offspring!
If parents watch their child being bullied and remain indifferent, then that's truly incomprehensible!
Just as the village head and the others were about to step forward, they were stopped by Cheng Yue's gaze. Well, Cheng Yue is a clever girl, she might have a way.
Remembering Cheng Yue's words, Chen Ning quietly went to Zhou Xiaoyan's side.
Liang Damei was forced to look up at Cheng Yue, and shrank back in fright at the coldness in her eyes. "You, you, what right do you have to hit me?"
Cheng Yue snorted, "Why should I? Because you just insulted my daughter, because you dared to make a move on me. What, you've got a problem with me, and I can't even teach you a lesson?"
"Exactly! He insulted someone's daughter and then wanted to get into their shop. He'd never dream of such a thing!"
"You dare bully the children in our village, and you even dare to plot against our villagers! Teaching you a lesson is too lenient!"
"Pah! Shameless! You can't even discuss marriage properly, you're just greedy and eyeing other people's business! You deserve to be beaten up! Serves you right for being so ungrateful!"
Liang Damei's eyes widened. The words of the crowd outside the door made her scalp tingle. She looked Cheng Yue up and down again. Not only was her clothing and appearance different from others, but her eyes were also terrifying.
She was immediately certain that this was Cheng Yue, the owner of the shop where Zhang Shaowen worked!
Her eyes darted away as she said, "I didn't know she was your daughter. If I had known, I definitely wouldn't have scolded her..."
"Cheng Yue, right? Let's talk this out. I'm related to the village head by marriage, after all. Let me go first. This is not a good look. You can't disrespect the village head. Otherwise, how will you face people in the village after this?"
Liang Damei's eyes darted around, half flattering and half threatening.
They all live in the village, and she didn't believe that even if Cheng Yue had made a big business, she would still disregard the village head's reputation.
Qian Yulan pointed at the two despicable people and started cursing, "What kind of in-laws are you? Our proper in-laws are long gone. Even if we were married, we would never associate with you!"
“We are this brat’s family. Even if you don’t acknowledge us, we are still in-laws. Do you think your word counts?”
"Now that you've made it big, you think you can abandon us? No way!"
They've raised this lowly girl for so many years and haven't even gotten a share of her glory, and now they want to get rid of her? Is there really such a good thing?
Even after she gets married, she still has to scramble for things for her son!
Feng was so angry that her mind went blank. "It's utterly shameless! Shameless!"
"For so many years, I have done the dirtiest and most tiring work at home and eaten the least amount of thin food. Not only did my uncle and aunt beat and scold me, but my younger brother also beat me whenever he wanted!"
I am a junior, and I shouldn't be pointing out your mistakes, but for so many years, I've been working like a slave at home, and have you ever treated me like a niece? Even livestock don't work like this!
Third Aunt, you can bully me all you want! But why did you have to come and bring trouble to Grandpa Village Chief's family? And why did you have to drag outsiders into this? Are you trying to force me to my death?
The village head's family are all good people. I shouldn't have been dragged down with them. I'm unlucky and don't deserve to live. I hope to be reborn into a good family in my next life and never encounter evil spirits like you again!
Zhou Xiaoyan's voice was filled with sobs, and everyone present was moved to tears.
That's so pitiful, she must have suffered so much! Even if there were no mothers in the village who didn't love their daughters, they wouldn't do something like this.
The young girl had finally made it this far and was about to get married and escape her misery, but Liang Damei made things like this. How could she not despair?
Before everyone could react, Zhou Xiaoyan had already slammed into the wall.
Everyone was shocked. "Stop them!"
Chen Ning reacted quickly and immediately pulled, but because she was not strong enough, she was pulled down by Zhou Xiaoyan. Fortunately, Wang Chunmei was also there and pulled Zhou Xiaoyan back.
Zhou Xiaoyan screamed at the top of her lungs, "Let me die!"
Everyone rushed forward, exclaiming, "This is going to cause a death!"
"Silly girl, you're not the one who should die! Why are you so desperate!"
When everyone saw that Zhou Xiaoyan had been stopped, they breathed a sigh of relief and felt even more sorry for her.
Furthermore, this is still at the village head's house. If someone were to die, it would be difficult to explain, wouldn't it?
Cheng Yue released Liang Damei at the right moment, shook her hand, and said, "Damn, my hand is sore."
"You little brat, you dare to die? Are you trying to kill me?"
Liang Damei broke free of control, ran forward, and started cursing.
This girl came out perfectly fine, but if she goes back dead, how will she explain it?
The village head's family showed her no mercy; everyone in Houshui Village was watching.
Wang Chunmei accused, "You wicked woman! You heartless wretch, are you trying to drive the child to his death?!"
Zhou Xiaoyan shrank back, "It hurts, it hurts. I'm terrified of being beaten. I don't want to live anymore. If I go back alive, I don't know what my aunt and uncle will do. I'm really scared."
Ignoring the stares of those around him, he lifted the fabric from his arm, revealing a crisscrossing network of new and old wounds, with not a single patch of uninjured flesh.
This is still in the visible areas; in the invisible areas, it's unthinkable!
Everyone gasped in shock. "Damn it! How could someone be so vicious!"
Liang Damei said guiltily, "Whose child doesn't get a beating? Can't we hit them for being disobedient?"
Qian Yulan wiped away her tears and slapped Liang Damei twice more, saying, "This is your own niece! You're worse than animals! How will you explain this to your parents-in-law and brother-in-law when you get to the underworld!"
Liang Damei was slapped so hard she fell to the ground, her head swelling up like a pig's head. "You, you, you!"
Cheng Yue said calmly, "It's too early to explain to her parents-in-law and brother and sister-in-law. I think we should explain to the county magistrate first! Liang Damei's family abused their niece and disregarded human life. I wonder how the county magistrate will judge the case?"
Liang Damei retorted, "This is a family matter! Why would the county magistrate concern himself with this?"
"Ha! You drove your niece to the point of attempting suicide by hitting her head against a wall, and you call that a family matter? So many people witnessed it, there are plenty of witnesses. Whether it's a family matter or not, the county magistrate can make his own judgment!"
The village headman waved his hand dismissively, "Let's go see the official!"
