The fire tongs struck a person, producing a chilling sound.
That was a solid hit.
But Chen Yunyun raised her head and said disdainfully, "Didn't you eat? Why did you hit me so lightly?"
Song Xiaofen frowned in surprise. This girl...?
Chen Fugui took a deep breath, clearly very angry. He raised the fire tongs high once more, the tongs making a whistling sound as they sliced through the air.
The three members of the Chen family stared at the fire tongs, which slammed into Chen Yunyun once again.
"No feeling, old man, is that all?"
That's it?
Those two short words were filled with endless sarcasm.
Especially the look in Chen Yunyun's eyes when she said those words—she didn't take Chen Fugui seriously at all.
"Dad! Can you do it? If you can't, I'll do it. Damn, this woman is disgusting!" Chen Laosan was really provoked by Chen Yunyun's nonchalant "That's it?"
He began to wonder if his father was really getting old, or if he didn't have the strength to hit people because he hadn't eaten lunch.
Chen Laosan stepped forward and took the fire tongs directly from him.
His method of beating people was different from Chen Fugui's. He brandished the fire tongs and even took a short running start, shouting as he ran, "I'll beat you to death!"
Chen Yunyun had sharp ears and heard the commotion of footsteps outside the door, thinking that someone must be coming.
She abruptly changed from her previous calm demeanor and started running across the yard, screaming shrilly, "Help! Murder!"
Song Xiaofen: ? What's wrong with this girl? Is her reaction time too slow? Is she only feeling scared now?
Chen Fugui: ? Is it really because I'm old and don't have the strength anymore? Otherwise, why didn't she scream when I hit her, but she screamed so miserably as soon as Lao San arrived?
When Chen Yunyun ran away, she deliberately ran in the direction of Song Xiaofen.
Song Xiaofen reached out and grabbed her. She worked in the fields all year round and was very strong. She restrained Chen Yunyun with one hand and used the other hand to cover Chen Yunyun's mouth. "Keep your voice down. Who are you yelling at?!"
Chen Laosan caught up, laughing viciously with the air of a tyrant. "Run? Let's see where you run to! I'll skin you alive today!"
He raised the fire tongs high, his expression ferocious.
The moment the fire tongs fell, Chen Laosan wanted to see a look of shock on Chen Yunyun's face.
However, what he saw was a cryptic smile on Chen Yunyun's lips.
Has Chen Zhaodi gone mad? They're about to hit her, and she's still laughing?!
The fire tongs that were aimed at him did not come down.
Chen Laosan was kicked away.
The newcomer said sternly, "Let's see whose skin you're going to peel off! This is Xu Family Village! Don't be so lawless!"
More than a dozen men entered through the main gate.
Some were patrol teams from the raw material plant, and others were young and strong men from the village.
Captain Zhang was standing at the very front; he was the one who kicked Chen Laosan away.
Captain Zhang used to be a hunter. He had killed wild boars and fought wild bears. The murderous aura he exuded was far beyond what the two farmers, Chen Fugui and Chen Laosan, could match!
Chen Laosan was kicked to the ground, clutching his waist and unable to move.
Chen Fugui squinted at the dozen or so burly men in the courtyard and said, "This is a family matter. Please leave."
"Family matters?"
Captain Zhang is very protective of his own. He had long treated Chen Yunyun like his own junior, but right under his nose, Chen Yunyun was bullied by some outsiders. Wasn't this a slap in the face for Zhang Shun?
"Brothers, he said this is a family matter? Do you agree?"
A dozen or so people shouted in unison, "We disagree!"
The farmers all had loud, booming voices, their shouts deafening.
Chen Fugui's face stiffened, and he fell silent.
Captain Zhang has a good eye for people; Chen Fugui is a typical example of someone who only bullies his own kind.
This kind of man is incompetent; he only stays at home beating up women who are weak and helpless. But if someone outside him really gets serious, he won't dare to utter a word.
The patrol captain also arrived. Worried about Chen Yunyun's safety, he led two men towards her.
Song Xiaofen was startled and quickly let go of Chen Yunyun. She whispered, "I didn't do anything! I didn't hit her!"
With that, Song Xiaofen left Chen Yunyun and ran over to Chen Laosan.
"Mother, it hurts so much." Chen Laosan felt that he had no feeling below his waist. "Mother, am I going to be crippled? I can't feel my legs. No, Mother, I haven't even gotten married yet!"
Old Chen burst into tears and screamed incoherently.
Song Xiaofen was timid and fearful, but the news that her beloved youngest son was going to be paralyzed made her furious.
Captain Zhang knew he had used some force; he couldn't possibly have broken the man's back.
But Song Xiaofen didn't care about any of that; she immediately started cursing.
"You're absolutely outrageous! You kicked my son and hurt him! I'm calling the police to have you arrested!"
"Old man, the third brother is crippled. You have to stand up for him! They can't just bully us outsiders because they outnumber them. Aren't you ashamed if word gets out?!"
Grandma Song cried and wailed, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
Some members of the patrol team couldn't stand it anymore and said directly, "You brought this on yourselves. Who told you to hit Director Chen first? You were hitting him on the head with those big fire tongs and iron bars. What were you trying to do?"
"Do you intend to kill someone in broad daylight?"
The old woman argued, "What nonsense are you talking about! Chen Zhaodi is my daughter, the flesh and blood of my own flesh. I am her biological mother, it is only right for me to hit her."
“She talks back to her own father and sides with outsiders. She’s been married for so long and has never been back to her parents’ home, and she doesn’t bring anything home with her.”
