Chapter 167 [The Great Filial Son]
Yin Zhen wanted to help him up, but he cried out in pain, "I don't care. Now I'm injured here at your place. You have to be responsible for me and take care of me! Help me into the room and lie down. Then call a village doctor for me."
Yin Zhen's hand that was supporting Liao Cheng withdrew and she stood back, saying indignantly, "You fell while climbing the wall, why are you blaming me?"
She no longer needs to rely on Liao Cheng's wishes to live, and she has some confidence.
Liao Cheng was dumbfounded. How could the weak and easy-to-control Yin Zhen change?
Chen, who had a hot temper, immediately understood what Liao Cheng was up to when she heard what he said. She cursed him, "You have a door but you insist on climbing over the wall. You are obviously up to something and are trying to steal something."
Meanwhile, Lord Hu stood aside, trying to minimize his presence. What could he do? He could hit someone with a single misfire. Something was wrong! But he hadn't even had the spicy hot pot yet.
Jiang Lili saw through Liao Cheng's thoughts at a glance: "Isn't it because you can't live in the fishing village anymore that you want to rely on our sister Yin for a living?"
Liao Cheng didn't expect that there would be so many people in the side yard of this small village temple. He didn't check the almanac before going out today. If he had known, he would not have come here, and now he has suffered an unexpected disaster.
Being scolded by so many people and with the wound on his hand still hurting, Liao Cheng felt dizzy, but he still had the evil intention to stay.
It’s okay, I’ll just faint here. I can always blame it on Yin Zhen and get scolded. It’s worth it to blame it for the rest of my life!
At this moment, Liao Dabao took out the spare gauze that Jiang Lili had given them from his arms.
He walked to Liao Cheng's side in small steps, squatted down, held Liao Cheng's bloody hand with his soft little hands, wrapped bandages around his father's palm to stop the bleeding.
Liao Cheng felt someone bandaging his wound and when he looked up, it was his son Liao Dabao!
When so many people spat at him, his son, who was less than two years old, stood up and bandaged his wounds to stop the bleeding. Liao Cheng was deeply moved. He thought that as expected of a member of the Liao family, his son was on his side!
As long as his son's heart is with him, Liao Cheng, Yin Zhen will not be able to escape from him no matter what.
Just when Liao Cheng was secretly delighted and was about to say something sentimental to Liao Dabao like "Daddy is wrong, Daddy is here to take you home" -
Liao Cheng heard Liao Dabao say to Xin Che and Xin Cheng, "Brother Che and Brother Cheng, please carry the person into the yard first. Don't let him die in front of my house!"
"It affects Feng Shui!"
Liao Cheng's face turned pale and he felt a chill in his heart.
Heartbreaking!
Is this something his one and a half year old son could say?
After Liao Dabao finished tying up Liao Fengzhen's clothes, he stood up and waved his hands in disdain: "Come on, take it away, take it away."
A one and a half year old child is so young that he has no feelings for his father who only cares about giving birth to him but not raising him, not to mention that there is an alien soul, Liao Ji, in his body.
"Let's throw it over the hillside late at night. It will surely be picked up by a wild bear before dawn."
Liao Cheng: ???
Is it your biological child?
Xin Che and Xin Cheng carried Liao Cheng into the side yard.
The moment the door slammed shut, Liao Cheng's heart died.
Liao Cheng was placed on the ground in the courtyard, surrounded by the Zhaoping Marquis family and Yin Zhen and her son.
Seeing that no one here was on his side, Liao Cheng trembled and suddenly felt that his life was bleak, like a sheep falling into a den of wolves.
He swallowed and said, "You...are not really planning to let me die here tonight?"
"Even if I become a ghost, I won't let you go!"
"How dare you say that? If it weren't for my sister-in-law, Yin Zhen and your son would have become lonely ghosts on the street!"
Chen suddenly spat, "Didn't you abandon Yin Zhen and her son on your way to exile? What are you trying to do by showing up at my house now?"
Liao Cheng was the most stubborn person in the room. "How could I abandon you? That was just talk! When couples have a verbal argument, don't they always say harsh words like this?"
Jiang Lili fetched a pen and paper from the house and said, "Alright, let's write a letter of dismissal and severance of ties now. From now on, Yin Zhen and Liao Dabao will have nothing to do with you anymore."
She said coldly, "Luckily it's the left hand that's rotten, not the right. Oh, and there's no need to prepare ink. You can just dip your thumb in your own blood and sign."
Liao Cheng wanted to argue a few more times. He was really unwilling to accept it. It was clearly him who was beaten, and it was clearly his concubine and son.
Jiang Lili twirled the brush between her fingers. "Master Liao, choose between writing fast and dying fast!"
After saying that, he turned around and asked everyone to go to the dining table: "Come on, the food is getting cold. Fortunately, the rabbit head can still be eaten cold."
"Eat well so you have the strength to send people away!"
Liao Cheng watched as everyone left one by one. Liao Dabao was about to tear the bandage off his hand, but he weakly surrendered: "I'll write, isn't it okay for me to write?"
Liao Cheng relied on his willpower to write two letters of severance. He was so tense that he dared not let down his guard for even a moment. Judging from the aura of these villains, if he did not compromise, he would really die here today.
"Done?"
Jiang Lili took the two signed letters and gave them to her mother Yang for inspection. Liao Cheng was a civil servant in the officialdom, so he could not be careless with the letters.
After Yang said that there was no problem, Xin Cheng asked Jiang Lili what to do with Liao Cheng.
Jiang Lili cast an inquiring look at Yin Zhen.
Yin Zhen took the two letters and was finally completely free.
She held her son's hand tightly, bit her lip, and after a moment's thought, she said, "Let's put a sack around it and throw it at the village entrance. Let everyone see what happens to hooligans who climb over walls in the middle of the night!"
After Yin Zhen finished speaking, she turned around and pulled Liao Dabao back to the dining table: "Come on, let's eat first!"
At this time, Hu Junshou, who had a low sense of presence in the corner, asked weakly: "Can I also eat at the table?"
Jiang Lili glanced at him and said without pointing at the water tank: "Wash your hands before eating!"
Then he left him a set of bowls and chopsticks.
County Magistrate Hu was very happy. He washed his hands and sat down to eat.
He excitedly picked up a piece of rabbit meat and was about to taste it when he heard Jiang Lili's cold voice say, "Master Hu, logically speaking, you were the one who injured this man."
Hu sir wanted to get away with it, but Miss Jiang was too smart. He sighed and said, "I, Hu, will definitely be on this pirate ship of yours from now on."
"Hey, this isn't a pirate ship at all. It's more reliable to be on the same side with us. Look, they're eating delicious food and drinking spicy drinks!"
Jiang Lili took out a can of chili powder from her backpack and said, "Let me make it clear first. Your broken firewood pole needs to be fixed. This is my deposit."
"Okay, okay."
When Lord Hu saw the small jar, his eyes widened. He picked up the cup of coconut milk and spoke in a more serious tone: "Today, I, Hu, would like to offer a toast to everyone."
"From now on we are in the same boat."
When they were almost done eating, Jiang Lili changed the subject: "Master Hu, how did you get demoted to Haizhou?"
