Chapter 31 The Heroine Who Was Cannon Fodder by the Book-Traveling Girl 11
Su's father is the manager of a restaurant in the county town and only comes home a few times a month.
The monthly wage was one or two taels of silver. In this era when ordinary people could not save one or two taels of silver in a year, Su's father could earn one or two taels of silver a month, which made people in the village envious.
In the previous life, the original owner fell into the water, and the subsequent events occurred. Su's father did not return because the restaurant owner had sent him to another county. When he returned from the other county, he learned what had happened to his daughter and rushed back without stopping, but by then the original owner had already passed away.
Seeing that everyone had left, Su's mother pulled Su Li to the main hall.
"You damn girl, why are you so troublesome? I told you not to play with Zhou Zhaodi's daughter, but you refused to listen.
Look, I was right, wasn't I? How could someone like Zhou Zhaodi raise a good daughter? Wang Lele is just like her parents, full of evil.
Su's mother was angry at Zhou for not fighting back, and pointed her finger at Su Li's forehead. It's no wonder that she could beat Zhou so hard that she screamed.
Su Li had no choice but to quickly admit his mistake: "Mom, I was wrong. I will never play with Wang Lele again! Please stop tapping me. Look at my forehead. Has it made me red?"
When Su's mother saw it, it was true, and she could only silently retract her fingers.
"Sister, you are usually too easy to talk to. You must stop being so soft in the future. You did the right thing today. You must do the same in the future."
"Yes! Your sister-in-law is right. You should be like today. I used to worry about you, afraid that you would get bullied outside. Seeing how you hit people today, you have the style of your mother and me. I will feel relieved from now on."
Su's mother looked proud, and after she finished speaking, she looked at Su Li with satisfaction and nodded.
Su Li found it funny. Could it be that Su's mother thought that pulling people's hair and scratching their faces was something to be proud of?
Well - if you think about it carefully, it is indeed something to be proud of. After all, in this backward rural area, if you are not tough enough, those who bully the weak and fear the strong will bully you.
It's not that this place is backward and looks down on people. It's that in this era, there are hardly any literate people in the countryside, and they are relatively poor, so people tend to be petty in their lives.
"Mom, sister-in-law, don't worry. After what happened today, I understand that one should not be too weak.
In the past, I was too easy to talk to, so Wang Lele thought I was easy to bully and could plot against me at will."
Speaking of this, Su's mother still felt a pang of fear.
"Yes, Zhou Zhaodi's daughter is even more vicious than her. She wants to destroy my son! How did my son provoke her that she would harm him like this?"
As she spoke, Su's mother wiped away her tears.
Su Li: Where else could it be? She's just worried that your daughter will stand in the way of her becoming the general's wife, so she wants to prevent future trouble!
Despite all the complaints, Su Li still comforted his mother gently.
"Mom, look, I'm fine, aren't I? Wang Lele didn't get any better today. Not only did he have to pay us money.
I even beat Wang Lele so hard that he looked like a pig. I even pulled out a handful of his hair! Can you please stop crying? "
"You damn girl, if anything happens to you, what good will the money do?"
008: "Host, the original owner's family loves her so much!"
Su Li: "Indeed, if she hadn't met the vicious Wang Lele, her life would have been the same even if she hadn't married Li Tiezhu."
008: "This time-traveling girl is so abominable. She stole the original owner's official partner and even wanted to kill the original owner."
Su Li: "This is all from the past life. Now that we are here, her dream of being a government official's wife should just remain a dream!"
"You haven't told us how you got out of the water?" Su's mother suddenly remembered this question.
Mrs. Su also looked at Su Li curiously.
Su Li: I forgot that the original owner couldn’t swim.
"I've secretly tried to learn it a few times before, but this time I was probably too scared to fall into the water, so I just swam to shore."
Su Li's explanation was far-fetched. In this era, girls would not learn to swim, but Su's mother and the others chose to believe it.
At this time, Su Xing and Su Wang came back. Su Wang saw that his elder brother went to Wang's house alone, and fearing that he would suffer, he followed him.
Fortunately, he went with them, otherwise he would have suffered losses in the Wang family. Wang Dashan and his two brothers heard that his eldest brother was going to ask for money.
That's too much. He wanted to hit people as soon as he came up. Even though his elder brother looked as tall and strong as his father, he was much worse at fighting than him.
He rushed forward and pinned Wang Dashan down, beating him with punches, kicks, and even using his mother's special skill, pulling his hair. It didn't take long for Wang Dashan to admit defeat and beg for mercy.
Although he suffered some losses, it didn't matter. He won the fight and got the silver back.
The three women of the Su family saw that the two men were fine when they went out, but came back with bruises on their faces, and even the sleeves of Su Wang's clothes were missing.
"Husband, who the hell beat you up? Tell me, I'll beat his wife up."
Mrs. Su felt extremely distressed when she saw her husband's face and nose were bruised and even his hair was disheveled.
When had she ever seen her husband in such a mess? He was a man who paid the most attention to his image and always took care of his hair meticulously.
Seeing his wife ready to avenge him at any moment, Su Xing felt better. "I'm fine, don't worry."
"Big brother, second brother, were these brothers from Wang Dashan's family responsible for this fight?"
Although Su Li was asking his two brothers, he did use an affirmative tone.
"Tell me, aren't you usually very capable? You cause trouble and fight every day, but why did you get beaten like this today? You even beat up your eldest brother."
Su's mother frowned, pulled her two sons over, looked here and there, and then turned her attention to Su Wang.
"My injury is minor, but it looks a bit serious. The Wang brothers' injuries are much more serious than mine. Hehe... I even pulled out a handful of Wang Dashan's hair."
As Su Wang was talking, he winked at Su's mother, with a look of pride on his face as if he was about to praise me: I have learned the secret skills of you and your sister-in-law!
He was a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old, and he made faces at his mother to ask for praise, which made Su's mother very amused.
Su Li and Mrs. Su also found it funny. Su Xing watched his brother being criticized but said nothing.
Although I was lucky to have my younger brother so that I didn't suffer any loss today, he and a group of idle young men roam around the village and the mountains every day, and they really need a good lesson.
