Chapter 20 Miss Su, we need to talk
"It was this woman who tricked me into the river and beat me up!"
Wang Laizi kicked the chicken coop over and pointed at Pei Changfeng, saying, "You are her man? Let me tell you, this bitch knocked out one of my teeth. If you don't apologize, this matter will not end today!"
The village chief stood up and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? How could Madam Changfeng knock out your teeth? Wang Laizi, I'm warning you, get out of here right now! Otherwise, I'll have someone kick you out!"
"Bah, you old fool, do you think I'm afraid of you?"
After he finished speaking, several men behind Wang Laizi echoed him. This group of people were Wang Laizi's brothers. They couldn't get together normally, but liked to gather together when they wanted to cause trouble.
"Wanwan!" The village chief glared at Su Wanwan, "Did you beat him?"
"No!" Su Wanwan hid behind Pei Changfeng helplessly, hugging Pei Changfeng's arm tightly, her voice sounded like she was about to cry, "I am just a weak woman, how could I knock out all his teeth?"
"You didn't hit me?" Seeing Su Wanwan's little face, Wang Laizi laughed again, "Then you are seducing me. If you are willing to spend a few nights with us brothers, then let's forget what happened today."
"That's enough!" The village chief shouted at Wang Laizi, "You are talking nonsense!"
Wang Laizi was fearless and said, "Then why did she ask me to meet her by the river this afternoon?"
Su Wanwan almost wanted to vomit. This Wang Laizi was so disgusting.
She looked at Pei Changfeng again. Pei Changfeng would definitely not believe such words.
Wang Laizi said to Pei Changfeng: "Are you her man?"
He looked up and down, looking down on Pei Changfeng's pretty face, and sneered, "No wonder your woman wants to have sex with me."
Su Wanwan's face turned black, and she wanted to use a stick to knock out all of Wang Laizi's teeth, but was stopped by Pei Changfeng.
Pei Changfeng said calmly: "Where is the evidence?"
Wang Laizi was stunned. He didn't expect Pei Changfeng to ask him for evidence. He kicked the bench away and said, "This is the evidence!"
Su Wanwan knew that Wang Laizi and his group were not easy to deal with. If a fight really broke out, she would have to beat these bastards away even if she had to use a knife.
Pei Changfeng was tall and could completely block Su Wanwan behind him. He spoke calmly, "Those who destroy a woman's reputation without reason will be punished with thirty strokes of the cane, and those who break into a house and destroy property will be punished with twenty strokes of the cane. If you don't have evidence, then we will go to the official."
"See the official?" Wang Laizi and the others looked at each other and laughed, "Do you think I was scared?"
"Village chief, please take someone to the town to report to the police."
The village chief nodded and tried to run out, but was stopped by Wang Laizi. Seeing this, Su Wanwan stood on tiptoe and said to Pei Daniu who was watching the excitement outside the house: "Brother Daniu, please help us report to the police. I will introduce you to a wife tomorrow!"
Pei Daniu, who was named, was frightened by Su Wanwan's call of "Brother Daniu". In fact, they were all from the same village. If that scoundrel really did something, they certainly couldn't just stand by and watch him die. However, Su Wanwan said that she would introduce him to a wife...
Pei Daniu ran towards the town as fast as he could.
Seeing that someone really went to the town to report to the police, the group of people who followed Wang Laizi looked at each other in bewilderment. They were happy to bully others, but they would not be happy if they were really arrested by the government.
"My mother told me to go home for dinner."
"Uh, yes, my son called me too."
But after a while, the group of people who followed Wang Laizi to abuse his power and domineeringly scattered like birds and beasts.
Wang Laizi was the only one left. Su Wanwan came out from behind Pei Changfeng with squinted eyes and picked up the laundry stick. "Wang Laizi, what did you say about me just now?"
Wang Laizi had never been bullied like this by a little girl. He got angry and rushed over to strangle Su Wanwan, but was hit by a blunt object, almost knocking out his heart, liver and lungs.
Pei Changfeng retracted his crutches, pulled Su Wanwan's hand, and motioned her to come back.
Su Wanwan was delighted when Pei Changfeng took the initiative to hold her hand. She no longer wanted to hit Wang Laizi. She hugged Pei Changfeng's arm and waved her fist at Wang Laizi, "If it weren't for my husband's kindness, I would have beaten you to death!"
Wang Laizi seemed to have found some evidence and said to the people around him, "Here is the evidence. She was the one who knocked out my teeth!"
Who in Peijia Village doesn’t know that Su Wanwan is fierce?
But no matter how tough Su Wanwan is, she is still a girl. If someone comes out and says it is true, who knows what Wang Laizi will do.
The villagers looked at their noses and pretended not to hear anything.
Wang Laizi realized that the people in this village were not good people. He pouted and accepted defeat!
Wang Laizi was defeated. Pei Changfeng thanked the villagers, then closed the gate and looked at Su Wanwan who was cleaning the chicken coop. "Miss Su, can you tell me what happened today?"
She didn’t know if it was an illusion, but Su Wanwan always felt that his tone was a little cold.
She hesitated for a moment and told him everything that happened by the river today. After a while, she clenched her fists and said, "That scoundrel just had bad intentions and wanted to bully Caidie!"
After she finished speaking, she thought she would get Pei Changfeng's approval, but she saw that Pei Changfeng was just looking at her quietly, which made her feel uneasy.
"Husband? What's wrong?"
Su Wanwan blinked.
If it were an ordinary matter, Pei Changfeng would never say a word, but today's matter was not that simple.
He shook his head and said nothing.
That night, Su Wanwan came in after washing up and saw Pei Changfeng looking at the relics left by his mother. The jade pendant was gone, only a wooden box was left.
She felt sad too. As someone who had lost both her parents, she naturally knew how it felt to not be able to keep their belongings. She leaned over and asked, "Husband, are you feeling sad?"
Pei Changfeng put the wooden box down and said, "Miss Su, we need to talk."
"What are you talking about?" This was the first time Pei Changfeng spoke to her in such a serious tone. Su Wanwan felt a little flustered. "What can't we say during the day? I'm so sleepy now and want to sleep."
As she spoke, she yawned and looked at Pei Changfeng with wet eyes.
Pei Changfeng shook his head, "Let's talk about what happened today."
"Do you think I shouldn't meddle in other people's business?" Su Wanwan buried her head in the quilt. She didn't want to talk to him. She was afraid of being nagged, and even more afraid of hearing something she didn't want to hear.
"Miss Su." Pei Changfeng called again.
Su Wanwan reluctantly got her head out from under the quilt and said, "Alright, alright, go ahead and talk. I'll just listen."
She has the mentality of a child. She is afraid of being punished when she does something wrong, so she chooses to escape. However, not everything can be avoided.
"Miss Su, I don't mean to blame you. You acted bravely and saved your friend from danger. This is not wrong."
Su Wanwan's eyes lit up and she listened to him continue.
"But you shouldn't put yourself in danger," Pei Changfeng frowned, "This is not a wise move. If Wang Laizi is stronger than you and defeats you, have you ever thought about what will happen to you? If no villagers come to help today, have you ever thought about what will happen?"
"There are not so many ifs in the world..."
"Yes," Pei Changfeng pursed his lips, "Just like me, I never thought it would be like this."
Su Wanwan was stunned. Yes, did Pei Changfeng ever think that he would be betrayed by his closest relatives, tortured for such a long time, and almost lose his life?
She knew where she was wrong, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been so reckless."
"Miss Su shouldn't apologize like me. As long as you live in this world and live up to your parents' expectations, it's enough. But if your father-in-law and mother-in-law knew about this, how sad and worried would they be?"
Su Wanwan's nose was sore, "I really know I was wrong, and I will never do it again."
Pei Changfeng said nothing more, and sighed softly, "Go to sleep."
He lay down, and Su Wanwan followed suit, but she still felt uncomfortable because of what he said.
But perhaps she was indeed a bit spoiled and pretentious, and at this moment she still hoped that Pei Changfeng would say a few words to make her feel better.
"Husband..."
She called softly, but Pei Changfeng did not move.
Su Wanwan felt lost, "Are you going to treat me like this forever?"
Pei Changfeng's fingertips curled slightly.
After an unknown amount of time, he turned around and saw Su Wanwan's breathing becoming light and slow, obviously she had fallen asleep.
Pei Changfeng's gaze swept across her eyebrows, then he got dressed, stood up, and walked out into the endless night.
