Chapter 19: Fighting, Lin Xiuzhi is mighty

However, they did not know everything. The villagers only knew that Jiang Xingyan, the youngest son of the Jiang family, had received a letter from the army, and everyone else was just half guessing.

As a brother, Jiang Zongzheng certainly knew what was going on in his brother's family. Seeing that Lin Xiuzhi was absent-minded while working, he didn't say anything and asked the scorer to pay more attention.

"Don't rush me. The Jiang family has been busy lately. Just record your work points as usual."

The captain had spoken, so the scorer dared not say anything. He nodded obediently and agreed straightforwardly: "Okay."

For several days, Lin Xiuzhi seemed to have lost her soul, and Luo Yiping's mother looked even more proud. She walked like a big rooster, with her head held high.

In the past, the Jiang family always looked down upon her. Even though their own Yiping was so capable, everyone in the village would praise him. However, everything changed after the youngest son of the Jiang family joined the army.

People said that Lin Xiuzhi was a blessed person and that her son had a promising future and would enjoy great fortune in the future. Luo Yiping's mother secretly cursed several families.

"You are just a wallflower, clinging to someone else's power, bah."

The rumors in the village are going crazy now. There are all kinds of rumors. Some say Jiang Xingyan did not complete the mission and will not be promoted in the future. Some say Jiang Xingyan did something wrong outside and the army expelled her.

Listening to what the other old ladies said, Luo Yiping's mother took out a handful of fragrant melon seeds from her pocket and laughed as if she was listening to a joke.

Not only that, she also made up her own story. She nervously let others get closer. She whispered, "What I heard is different. I heard that the youngest son of the Jiang family is gone."

"Gone? Is that true? How come it's gone?"

Luo Yiping's mother waved her hands in disdain, "How would I know that? I just heard it from others."

As soon as she finished speaking, all the old men and women in front of her fell silent, and ran away very fast with their benches in their hands, as if there were dogs chasing them.

Luo Yiping's mother hadn't finished her words yet, and she stretched out her hands reluctantly: "Why are you running away? I haven't finished my words yet."

"What are you talking about? Let me hear it." Lin Xiuzhi popped her head out from behind her with a sinister look.

She was already worried about her son, and was prone to overthinking when she was idle at home, so she wanted to go out for a walk, but she didn't expect to encounter this.

Luo Yiping's mother paused, and took two steps back, feeling unsure: "Why do you walk so quietly?"

"What did you just say, huh?" Lin Xiuzhi suddenly attacked and scolded coldly.

Luo Yiping's mother said with disdain, "Lin Xiuzhi, Lin Xiuzhi, do you really think that no one knows about your son Jiang Xingyan? Do you think you can keep it a secret?"

"What do you mean?" Lin Xiuzhi's face was calm, but her tone was full of unkindness.

"Tsk, is something wrong with your son? You look as sullen as a donkey these past two days, just like a stepmother."

"Your son is in trouble. If you dare to curse my brother Yan, I will tear your mouth apart." Lin Xiuzhi raised her right arm and slapped her in the face.

They all came from farming backgrounds, so they were naturally very strong. After one slap, Luo Yiping's mother screamed and cursed loudly: "Lin Xiuzhi, are you f*cking crazy? Am I wrong? If nothing happened to your son, why do you have such a sad expression on your face?"

"I let you say it, I let you curse my son, I will beat you to death, beat you to death." Lin Xiuzhi just had no place to vent her anger, and saw Luo Yiping's mother hit her hand.

She was so fierce and domineering that she grabbed Luo Yiping's mother's hair and slapped her in the face.

When Pan Wenlan and Chu Sangning arrived, they found that Lin Xiuzhi did not suffer any loss. On the contrary, the person she caught was like a plucked chicken, unable to even fight back.

Jiang Zongzheng had just returned home and heard that Lin Xiuzhi and the Luo family had started fighting, so he ran over here without stopping.

"Stop, stop it, hurry up, someone pull them apart." Jiang Zongzhen's voice was loud. Those who came over to see the excitement looked at each other, and none of them could move forward.

The Jiang family is ruthless. What if I go up to them now and they get mad and slap me?

Chu Sangning grimaced as he watched the "brutal" one-sided beating happening in front of him. Aunt Lin's slap was really powerful. If she had gotten any closer, the wind would have given him a cold.

No one in the crowd moved, and Jiang Zong Zheng didn't dare to step forward. It would be inappropriate for a man like him to intervene when two old women were fighting.

When Lin Xiuzhi was tired and sweaty, she ended the fight with great satisfaction. She threw the man to the ground like trash and raised her head: "If I hear you say bad things about Brother Yan again, I will kill you."

"You dare!" Luo Yiping's mother curled up on the ground, shouting loudly.

"You dare to do it? If I hear any gossip about you again, don't blame us neighbors for being disrespectful."

Lin Xiuzhi looked around and found that anyone who had gossiped before lowered their heads out of guilt, not daring to say a word.

"Captain, you have to make the decision for me. That damn old woman Lin Xiuzhi hit me first. I don't care. You have to make the decision for me."

Old Mrs. Luo sat down on the ground, crying and insisting that Jiang Zongzheng deal with Lin Xiuzhi.

Jiang Zongzheng was not helping his relatives, and looked at Old Lady Luo with a fierce face, "Why should I make decisions for you? You will be ruined by your mouth sooner or later."

Old Mrs. Luo was still unconvinced. Her cheeks puffed up like a frog and she kept complaining in a low voice: "Everyone knows what I said. I just said it out loud."

"You keep talking." Jiang Zongzheng warned her in a muffled voice that if she continued, Lin Xiuzhi might get angry again.

"Captain, I don't care. Lin Xiuzhi hit me. Look at how she hit me. The skin on my arm is peeling off."

Old Mrs. Luo wanted Jiang Zongzhen to make the decision for her, and she didn't want to think that if it weren't for her bad mouth, she would not have been beaten up.

"Okay, okay, let's all go. There's nothing to see." Pan Wenlan signaled everyone not to gather here, as there was nothing to see.

When Lin Xiuzhi heard what Old Lady Luo said, she snorted with disdain and said, "If you want to explain, come on, I'll explain it to you." Then she was about to go up to her and have a good "argument".

Jiang Zongzheng knew the temper of his brother's wife. She was a man of her word. She would never talk when she needed to. He said to Pan Wenlan unhappily, "Go and confront your mother-in-law. If you have anything to say, talk to her nicely."

Pan Wenlan was in a dilemma and pretended to block twice. When Mrs. Luo saw Lin Xiuzhi coming over, she felt her skin tighten and her scalp was burning with pain.

She closed her eyes and shouted, "Someone, someone is killing someone, someone is bullying an orphan and a widow."

Under Pan Wenlan's persuasion and Jiang Zongzheng's persuasion, Lin Xiuzhi pointed at Mrs. Luo and said, "If you dare to curse my son again, I will kill you."

"Captain, you don't care about this?" Old Mrs. Luo widened her eyes in disbelief. Lin Xiuzhi was even threatening her.
