Chapter 44 He is mine
Ye Jingchen was still with his head down, working hard to carry the family's luggage. He suddenly felt his body lighten. When he looked up, he saw Wu Yuetang standing in front of him, pointing at the other members of the Ye family angrily, with her hands on her hips and cursing.
Wu Yuetang then turned around and helped Ye Jingchen move the large and small bags on his body to the ground. This scene made the Ye family very angry.
Li Xiufang, the mother of the Ye family, came out, pointed at Wu Yuetang's nose, and cursed back without mercy.
"Whose little girl are you? Why are you here to manage our business? How did I bother you by letting my son carry the luggage? Or do you have to flirt with every strong man you see? Bah, you are such a shameless bitch!"
What Li Xiufang said was particularly harsh, and she said it to a little girl who had not yet reached the age of marriage. If it were an ordinary farm girl, she would probably have been so angry that she covered her face and cried.
But the person standing in front of her now is Wu Yuetang, the Wu Yuetang who will not suffer any loss.
Wu Yuetang, who was helping Ye Jingchen unload his luggage, immediately got angry when she heard this. She ignored Ye Jingchen and rushed directly to Li Xiufang with her sleeves folded and her hands on her hips.
"You're so shameless! Look at your Ye family! The old man isn't even sixty yet, but he's already taking advantage of his age. Your eldest and youngest sons are all so fat that they're rounder than the dung balls pushed out by dung beetles. What's wrong? Are they weak and fragile? Are they terminally ill? They don't care about their lives and keep taking advantage of your second son every day. What's wrong? Isn't Ye Jingchen your son?"
"Of course!" Li Xiufang was about to say that Ye Jingchen was not his son, but immediately shut up when he realized it.
"Of course it's my son! How I discipline my child has nothing to do with a little girl like you!"
Li Xiufang straightened her chest and instantly became confident.
The farce at the Ye family attracted the attention of other villagers in Liuwan Village, who gathered around, making the already narrow mountain path blocked.
When everyone saw that a little girl who came from nowhere was facing Li Xiufang from the Ye family, they all shook their heads and sighed.
"Oh, what bad luck! This little girl is in trouble for running into the Li family of the Ye family."
"Yes, this Li has no control over her words. She says whatever she wants when she scolds people. She has scolded so many little girls to tears."
"This little girl hasn't cried yet, she's a strong-willed person. It's a pity that Li Shi hasn't exerted her strength yet."
Wu Yuetang could hear the discussions around him clearly, and a sly smile appeared on his lips.
"Since everyone's here to watch, let's all be fair. How the Ye family treats their second son is something that not only Liuwan Village but even Dayao Village and Xiaoyao Village know clearly. It's rare for their family to have such a capable son, but they don't take good care of him. Every day, he's like a vampire, eating his flesh and drinking his blood. Look at what this second son of the Ye family has become."
Ye Jingchen, who had been standing obediently behind Wu Yuetang watching the show, was suddenly pushed in front of everyone by her.
"Look at him, everyone. He had such a handsome face and such a sturdy figure, but now he's so skinny! Look at his clothes. The sleeves are either too short or his pants don't touch the ground. He's even wearing straw sandals! His whole family wears cloth shoes and clothes without patches, so why is he different?"
After listening to Wu Yuetang's words, the surrounding villagers also looked at Ye Jingchen, and discussions began to rise one after another.
"Oh, to be honest, the second son of the Ye family is indeed good-looking, very handsome, but he doesn't look like the old couple of the Ye family at all."
"Hey, I've heard that the Ye family is a place that eats people without leaving any bones. Look at what the second brother has become. If you don't know, you would think the Ye family has raised a beggar."
"Yeah, but it's strange, I don't have any memory of when this second child was born."
Ye Jingchen stood there, listening to everyone's discussions, and had some thoughts in his mind. Wu Yuetang was deliberately making a big deal out of this matter to let more people know about the Ye family's moral character and make everyone doubt whether he was the son of the Ye family.
Ye Jingchen's heart sank. Could it be that he really wasn't a descendant of the Ye family? If not, who was he?
"Ye Jingchen gets up early and goes to the mountains to hunt every day. He can buy prey and get some cold rice soup when he comes home. But if he doesn't catch any prey, not even the door will open for him, let alone leftovers. He does more work than an ox, but eats less than anyone else. The amount of work he does can't be counted by the whole family, but the amount of food he eats can be counted on one hand. This is what is called disciplining a son."
Wu Yuetang hadn't even started to exert her strength yet, but just stating the facts had already made Li Xiufang's face flush with anger. Ye Changxing, the head of the Ye family who was following behind her, was also very angry. He rushed out from behind, stretched out his hand to strangle Wu Yuetang's neck, and stopped her from continuing to speak.
But before his hand could reach Wu Yuetang, Ye Jingchen raised his hand and opened it.
"Ye Jingchen, who do you think you are! How dare you stop me?"
Ye Changxing's anger instantly shifted from Wu Yuetang to Ye Jingchen.
"Humph, aren't you ashamed yet? How much more do you want to embarrass the Ye family?"
Ye Jingchen's voice sounded chillingly. It was literally for the good of the Ye family, but his tone was indeed extremely cold.
"Okay!" An angry roar came from outside the crowd, and Ye Youcai walked in with a pipe in his hand. He was indeed the head of the family. As soon as he appeared, Li Xiufang and Ye Changxing put out their cigarettes.
Ye Youcai walked up to Wu Yuetang and stared at her for a long time with heavy eyes.
"Which village are you from? What are you doing here in our Ye family? What is your relationship with Ye Jingchen?"
He came up and asked three questions in a row, without even asking how the fight started. This old man from the Ye family is quite something.
Wu Yuetang smiled. "What do you care which village I'm from? Ye Jingchen is mine, and I have to protect him. If anyone bullies him, I'll give him back."
Ye Youcai was also a little angry. Everyone in Liuwan Village was afraid of him, but he didn't expect that a little girl from another village was not afraid of him at all.
"Bullshit! How can my second son belong to you? What nonsense are you talking about as a girl? You don't want Qingyu, but my Jingchen does!"
Seeing that Ye Youcai was about to raise his pipe to hit Wu Yuetang, Ye Jingchen immediately pulled her behind him and grabbed the pipe that was about to fall.
"Dad, I'll take her away. Let's forget about this."
His voice was firm, and Ye Youcai actually heard a hint of unwillingness in his tone.
Before the Ye family could react, Ye Jingchen dragged Wu Yuetang away. Wu Yuetang was furious. The fight wasn't over yet. When she was dragged away by Ye Jingchen, she was still making a fuss and screaming in dissatisfaction. She even spat in the direction of the Ye family in dissatisfaction.
He didn't stop until he reached a large dead tree stump in the mountains. Wu Yuetang stared at him with dissatisfaction.
"Why did you pull me away? I haven't scolded you enough! The whole family is torturing you like this, and you just endure the humiliation!"
"There's no need to make a big deal out of this."
Ye Jingchen looked down at Wu Yuetang, whose fur stood on end. She looked like a puppy guarding its food. It was really funny.
Wu Yuetang looked at his calm face, and her anger disappeared.
