Chapter 431 Mandrill
Song Zhijie was confused. He was not a worm in Xia Zhizhi's stomach, so how could he know what she was going crazy about today?
Xia Zhizhi was silent just now, not because she hadn't thought of what to say.
After all, she has always been quick to react, so nonsense just comes out of her mouth.
She just wanted to drink some hot tea, but the Song family was in a mess, and she didn't know whether the teacup was clean or not. She happened to not bring Ah Ju with her, so she could only bear it for a while.
People can't get used to things. The more they get used to them, the more embarrassed they become.
She had been spoiled for so long that when something suddenly seemed inconsiderate, she felt extremely uncomfortable, so she got upset.
Thinking about finishing her work quickly and going home for dinner, Xia Zhizhi didn't bother to talk to him any more and went straight to the point.
She picked up a sweet potato from the basket beside her and threw it at Song Zhijie's head, cursing as she hit him.
"Don't you know what you did? How dare you pretend to be ignorant? Do you know how much I have suffered because of you?"
Who can make Xia Zhizhi suffer injustice?
Song Zhijie screamed, covered his forehead which was covered with a big bump, and his eyes were filled with tears of grievance. He really didn't know!
Xia Zhizhi snorted coldly and continued, "It's because you and I were engaged. I don't know how many people laughed at me because of this. Not only did I lose face, but it's hard for me to find a partner. Not only me, but also my sister was implicated. I think over and over again, I can't let you off so easily!"
Song Zhijie originally wanted to say that he was engaged and was going to get married soon, and begged her to help him. But suddenly he remembered that the marriage he had arranged was cancelled, and he was immediately frightened and panicked. Was he going to fall into Xia Zhizhi's clutches again?
He was terrified and remorseful. If he had known earlier, he would not have ruined the marriage. After being beaten, his mind suddenly became clear and he remembered the good things about the girl.
Then she cried out in grievance: "Our two families have already called off the engagement, so it's just a man getting married a woman, and we have nothing to do with each other. How can you blame me for your problems?"
"Hmph! So what if it's all your fault? If I can't find a partner, you can forget about finding one either. If I'm being laughed at because of this, you can forget about getting away!" Xia Zhizhi laughed coldly.
Seeing Song Zhijie crying so bitterly, Old Lady Song felt extremely distressed and mustered up the courage to speak: "No matter what went wrong in our family, you have beaten me and scolded me, but let's just let it go. Why don't we just part ways and be happy!"
"I won't. If I don't live well, you won't live well either!" Xia Zhizhi was overbearing and unreasonable. After saying that, she tried to pull Song Zhijie away: "I see that it's not easy for you to find a suitable partner in your current situation. You might as well just give in to me."
When Song Zhijie saw her raising her hand, he thought she was going to hit him. He was so scared that he screamed and kept hiding behind Ma Chun.
Ma Chun felt sorry for her son, and although she was also afraid of Xia Zhizhi, the greatness of maternal love allowed her to temporarily overcome her fear of Xia Zhizhi. Like an old hen, she bravely spread her wings and protected her cubs.
Song Zhili moved the door panel aside and put it away. When he opened the curtain and entered the house, a gust of cold wind came in. The cold wind mixed with snowflakes whizzed into the house and blew out the sparks in the stove.
The Song family members huddled together in fear. Xia Zhizhi put one hand on her waist and raised the other hand. The expression on her face was extremely wanton. She vividly portrayed the image of a domineering creditor who came to collect the debt. Huang Shiren had to give her some ground whenever he saw her.
It perfectly illustrates what it means to be an unscrupulous landlord who forces good people to sell their children.
Anyway, she has only one purpose, if she can't pay, she will use her child as payment.
Xia Zhizhi was too dazzling. When Old Lady Song saw her, her eyes were completely attracted to her. She didn't even notice Song Zhili following behind her. She just thought she came alone.
When I saw Song Zhili enter the house, I thought he just happened to come home.
Old Mrs. Song suddenly had an idea and immediately stepped forward, grabbed Song Zhili's wrist and pushed him towards Xia Zhizhi.
"That marriage was originally arranged by Wang Fang, and it was originally arranged between you and Song Zhili. Since you refuse to give up, why not take him back!"
Fearing that Xia Zhizhi would be dissatisfied, Old Lady Song even praised Song Zhili against her will: "This child is not ugly, has a bright future, is good at work, is tall and strong, and can take a beating. He is really perfect for her. You can take him away. You can do whatever you want to vent your anger. We will not object!"
Song Zhili who just entered the room: ...?
Logically speaking, this was Xia Zhizhi's purpose for coming here, but she was not the type to quit when she saw something was going her way.
"That makes sense, but why should I listen to you? Besides, he's in the army. If he's trying to avoid me, can I go to the army every day to block him?"
Xia Zhizhi clearly wanted to take advantage of the situation. She ignored Old Lady Song's sales pitch, pushed through the crowd, grabbed Song Zhili by the collar, and pulled him in front of her.
The collars are tight in winter, and Xia Zhizhi was very strong. The collar dragged the weight of an adult and directly choked Song Zhijie. Soon, Song Zhijie's face turned as pale as pig liver.
Song Zhijie pulled Xia Zhizhi's hands randomly, kicked his legs on the ground, and was about to die.
Old Mrs. Song noticed Song Zhijie's expression and hurried over to save him.
Xia Zhizhi was unhappy, so she took a step back and, like a child grabbing a rag doll, she grabbed Song Zhijie by the collar and hid him behind her.
Song Zhijie's tongue was almost sticking out.
Not only did the old lady notice it, but Song Yong and Ma Chun also saw it.
At their age, they naturally couldn't afford to send their loved ones off, so they immediately went to rescue them.
Xia Zhizhi grabbed Song Zhijie's collar and jumped up and down in the house, dodging back and forth. The three men chased and blocked her, but they couldn't stop her.
Old Mrs. Song felt that Xia Zhizhi was like the mandrill she had seen when she was a child. That creature looked like a gorilla, with a very ferocious face, and sometimes would come down the mountain and run into the village to steal children.
Mandrills are vicious and cruel. When they are discovered by villagers, they will grab children by their arms, legs or necks and jump up and down on trees to avoid being tracked. After the children are killed, they will abandon the bodies and run away.
This was not the time to think about this. Seeing that Song Zhijie was about to stick out his tongue, Ma Chun, as a mother, was still very strong. She knelt down in front of Xia Zhizhi, hugged her legs and begged for mercy: "Zhijie is dying, please be merciful and let go first, and we will talk about other things later!"
Only then did Xia Zhizhi notice Song Zhijie's miserable condition. Her hand loosened, and Song Zhijie collapsed to the ground. He gasped for a while, and then began to cough violently.
It is true that good people are afraid of bad people, bad people are afraid of crazy people, and crazy people are afraid of those who don't care about their lives.
Xia Zhizhi was so crazy and had extraordinary martial arts skills, but her family background was good, so it was impossible to send her to prison easily.
The Song family knew that if they didn't give her something to appease her, even if they tricked her away today, the Song family would never have peace if she got excited again.
Old Man Song looked at Song Zhili who was standing silently beside him, sighed imperceptibly, then stood up, ready to appeal to his emotions and reason with him.
Someone has to make a sacrifice.
