Seeing that Wang Guihua was very angry, Cheng Mingyue quickly stood up and put her arm around her shoulders, saying comfortingly:
"Mom, what you said was in the past. Who would say bad things about our family behind our backs now?
The wild boar meat we gave them last time was not in vain. Besides, I've been learning medicine from my master during this period. Whenever the villagers have minor ailments like headaches and fevers, I've been helping them. How can they still have the nerve to blame me? Just relax."
Cheng Xiangdong also echoed: "That's right, mother. Now that my brother-in-law's leg has healed, who in the surrounding villages can compare to him?"
Cheng Xiangdong is now extremely satisfied with Lu Chen's brother-in-law. He even feels very proud when he mentions his brother-in-law.
Why did Cheng Xiangdong suddenly have such a big change of opinion about Lu Chen?
One was that Cheng Mingyue often mentioned Lu Chen to them, saying how smart he was, and the other was that Cheng Xiangdong discovered it himself.
One time when Cheng Xiangdong went to deliver something to Cheng Mingyue, he found Lu Chen practicing boxing in the yard. His movements were clean and neat, and his momentum was so majestic that he was immediately impressed.
He believed that with his brother-in-law's abilities, he would be able to achieve great things in the future.
Wang Guihua was completely persuaded by the two people and began to feel proud as well.
Her daughter and son-in-law are now the best people in the surrounding village. What else can she be dissatisfied with? Only pride remains.
The news that Lu Chen's leg had healed soon spread throughout the Baihe Brigade, and naturally reached Wang Cheng's ears.
Wang Cheng has been unlucky recently. Not only did he lose all the money he had won before, but he also owed a lot of foreign debts.
Last night, I came back and begged his mother for fifty dollars.
This is because the village party secretary's wife loves her youngest son and her family is well off, otherwise no family would be willing to give their son fifty yuan to gamble.
After he had the money, a lot of people gathered around Wang Cheng again, including those little gangsters from before.
"Do something for me today. If you do it well, you can spend these five dollars. If you don't, don't follow me anymore."
Wang Cheng said as he looked at Lu Chen's back as he left the village.
The hooligans looked at each other and said with a playful smile:
"Brother Cheng, if you have anything to ask, just tell us and we'll make sure it's done for you."
"That's right, that's right, Brother Cheng, if you have something to say, just tell us, we brothers will never be vague."
“…”
A few hooligans fought for five dollars and kept saying nice things as if they were free.
Wang Cheng had already seen through these people. He despised them in his heart, but he said:
"Did you see Lu Chen who just left the village? Just cripple one of his legs! I'll give you money after the job is done."
After Wang Cheng finished speaking, he walked towards the town from another road.
Perhaps the temptation of five dollars was too great, and the gangsters chased in the direction of Lu Chen without any hesitation.
The few of them followed Lu Chen at a distance until they reached a secluded place. Then they took a few quick steps to block Lu Chen's way.
Lu Chen glanced at the few people, his eyes calm.
He had already noticed them when they followed him, and he had been wanting to see what these people were trying to do, so he let them follow him without taking any action.
"What do you want to do?" Lu Chen asked in a very cold tone.
The leading thug had a middle parted hair and looked like a traitor. He laughed evilly a few times:
"Someone asked us to come over and rip off your leg. You'd better cooperate and don't make things difficult for us."
Although he had long known that these people had bad intentions, when he heard that they were going to cut off his legs, a storm suddenly appeared in Lu Chen's eyes.
The hardships and pain he experienced during the time when he was lame were like a movie, and the scenes once again appeared clearly in his mind.
Lu Chen laughed in anger: "Just a few of you bastards, you think you can break my legs?! Come on if you dare!"
After saying that, without waiting for the thugs to make a move, Lu Chen kicked the traitor to the ground.
Seeing how powerful Lu Chen was, the other thugs immediately ignored everything else and rushed forward, hoping to win by numbers, but their calculations were wrong.
Lu Chen has been practicing military boxing since he was a child, and his kung fu foundation is solid. During this period, Cheng Mingyue also explained to him the distribution of acupuncture points on the human body, which made him even more powerful. He can just hit wherever it hurts.
Soon, several thugs all lay on the ground, wailing.
"Aren't you very capable? Didn't you say you were going to break my legs? Tell me, who sent you here?!"
While Lu Chen was speaking, he grabbed the arm of a gangster and twisted it, and immediately a pig-slaughtering scream rang in his ears.
The other thugs were frightened by Lu Chen's ruthlessness and turned pale. Naturally, they didn't care about anything else and sold out Wang Cheng completely like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.
There is no reason why they are so miserable, but Wang Cheng is still living a carefree life.
They all work for him, they are brothers, and they should share the joys and sorrows.
Lu Chen frowned. He couldn't remember what grudge he had with Wang Cheng. He thought these thugs were trying to trick him, so he was even more ruthless and directly cut off the arms of several people.
Lu Chen raised a cold smile and shouted:
"You'd better tell the truth, otherwise I have plenty of ways to make you wish you were dead!"
The gang of hooligans were howling in pain and wanted to die.
"Brother, we really didn't lie to you. It was Wang Cheng who really asked us to come."
"It was Wang Cheng who asked us to break your leg, and he even said he would give us five dollars after the job was done."
The gangsters are really regretting their decision now. If they had known that Lu Chen was so powerful, they would not have rushed here to die no matter how much money he was offered.
Seeing that they didn't seem to be lying, Lu Chen thought for a moment and asked:
"I have no grudges against him in the past or recently, why would he do this to me?"
The traitor leader had drunk with Wang Cheng several times and knew some of the inside story. Without thinking, he said:
"Wang Cheng likes my sister-in-law, and after being scolded by her, he held a grudge against her. That must be the case."
In a flash, Lu Chen finally understood who the sister-in-law they were talking about was.
Wang Cheng, right? Very good! Very good!
How dare you think about his Mingyue!
Lu Chen kicked a few more people hard. When he was about to leave, he heard the ring of a bicycle bell not far away and stopped immediately.
The person who came was Li Yunsheng.
Li Yunsheng came to find Cheng Mingyue to tell her about the outcome of Gao Yiman's case, but he didn't expect to see such a scene on the way.
He listened to the miserable cries of the hooligans beside him, then looked at their arms hanging by their sides and took a deep breath.
These gangsters naturally knew Li Yunsheng and actually asked Li Yunsheng for help.
"Officer Li, save us! We are about to be beaten to death by Lu Chen."
"Officer Li, help!"
Li Yunsheng ignored them and looked at Lu Chen instead, raised an eyebrow and asked, "Did you injure these people?"
