Chapter 3



Li Hehua got home, poured the water in the bucket into the water tank, and then put the bucket down. She decided not to go fetch water again, and would go at dusk when no one was around.

I cleaned the kitchen yesterday, so let’s clean the room today. The original owner’s room was like a pigsty. If she had no other choice, she wouldn’t want to stay in the room.

Li Hehua got to work right away. He filled a basin half full of water, found a rag, and began to scrub the things in the room one by one. While wiping, he put some of the messy things in order, and then threw away the useless things. After wiping, he took a broom and swept the floor carefully.

Although the room was not big, it was not easy to clean. She was so tired that she was sweating profusely, her clothes were wet, and she was gasping for breath.

But I was still very happy when I saw the much cleaner and brighter room.

Li Hehua took off all the not-so-clean sheets and pillowcases on the bed, put them in a large washing basin, moved it to the yard, poured most of the water into the basin, prepared to soak them first, and then wash them thoroughly.

Just when Li Hehua was about to find a laundry mallet, a loud noise was heard outside the house, followed by a shout: "Li Hehua, come out!"

As a result, Li Hehua didn't have to go out, as a lot of people came into the yard.

Li Hehua noticed that the woman who had just been at the well was also among this group of people, and was wiping her tears at the moment.

It's obvious that he's here to seek revenge. Haha, it looks like he's planning to be the first to file a complaint.

The leader, a man who looked to be in his twenties, came in and pointed at Li Hehua and said angrily: "Li Hehua, you dare to hit my mother, I think you are tired of living!"

Another man followed suit and shouted, "If you don't give us a satisfactory explanation today, we'll make you pay!"

Li Hehua frowned and shook the water off his hands. "How are you going to punish me? What did I do? Explain it to me clearly!"

The man who spoke first took a deep breath, "You're still asking what happened? You're such a shameless woman! You beat up my mother, and you're still asking what happened to us?!"

"Ha!" Li Hehua snorted coldly, "Which eye of yours saw me hitting your mother? Who of you saw it with your own eyes? If you saw it, come out and tell me."

The people around looked at each other in confusion, because indeed no one saw it.

The crying woman's expression froze, and she secretly wondered why Li Hehua seemed to have become smarter today. In the past, she would just throw a tantrum directly, but why did she think of asking for a witness today?

But no matter what, she will not let this bitch have an easy time today.

The woman's eyes rolled and she began to sob, grabbing her eldest son's arm and saying, "Zhu Zi, you must seek justice for your mother.

Lotus really hit me and pushed me hard. My old bones were so pitiful that I almost couldn't get up. Woo woo..."

Wu Dazhu patted his mother's hand and said, "Don't worry, mom. I will make her give you an explanation!" He turned around and glared at Li Hehua, "You bitch, you hit someone and you don't admit it, right? My mother said you hit her, what are you still trying to argue about!"

Li Hehua was not afraid at all, "What a joke! Your mother said that I hit her, so I hit her? Then where was your mother injured? Let us see it." She didn't hurt the woman at all, she wanted to see how they could say that she hit someone.

Seeing that she was in bad condition, the woman wiped her tears and cried, "You pushed me hard and threw me to the ground. Where is my injury? How can I show this injury to others? What are you thinking?"

Li Hehua felt that she had really broadened her horizons. She finally understood what shamelessness was. Well, since she was shameless, she would not be polite either.

Li Hehua simply stretched out his bloody hand, which was now even scarier due to the water, and said, "Okay, then what do you say when you hit me? You broke both of my hands? Let's settle this."

The woman's eyes shrank when she saw Li Hehua's hand. The next second she loudly retorted, "You are talking nonsense. When did I hit you? You hurt yourself!"

Li Hehua laughed and repeated Wu Dazhu's words: "You hit someone but you still don't admit it, right? I said you hit me, why are you still trying to argue?"

"You!" Everyone in the Wu family was choked by Li Hehua's words.

At this moment, someone in the crowd shouts, "Here comes Tieshan!"

The next second, a path opened up in the crowd and a man walked in from outside.

Li Hehua only took one look at the man and couldn't help but cheer in his heart. What a manly man! He was at least 1.8 meters tall, tall and strong, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, clear contours, and bronze skin that added a touch of flavor to him, full of masculinity from head to toe.

I never thought there would be such an outstanding man in this small village.

In fact, Li Hehua has a characteristic that everyone who knows her knows, that is, she is a typical face-control freak and a senior member of the Appearance Association. It’s not that she will be attracted to good-looking people, but she will simply like and appreciate them and can’t help but want to look at them twice, and then look at them again.

She doesn't know how many times her friends have complained about this problem of hers.

Now seeing the person coming, Li Hehua stared at him unconsciously until the woman's scream brought her back to her senses.

"Tieshan, you are finally here. You have to give me an explanation. Li Hehua is really too much. It is not enough that she has hurt my daughter like that. Now she is beating me, an old woman. You can't just ignore it."

Li Hehua didn't have time to think carefully about what the woman said. He only caught an important piece of information that he had just missed: this man's name is Tieshan! The woman mentioned before that she had a husband named Tieshan. Could it be him? No way, how could such a man marry a woman like the original owner? They were not a good match at first glance.

While Li Hehua was daydreaming, Zhang Tieshan was also looking at her. Seeing that she didn't seem to care at all, he clenched his fists, took a deep breath to suppress his anger, and said in a calm voice: "Aunt, I'm really sorry about this. I will teach her a lesson. You decide how to compensate her. Tell me an amount and I'll pay you back."

This made the woman's expression rise a little. She glanced at Li Hehua proudly and said to Zhang Tieshan earnestly, "You grew up under my care. How can I ask for your money? It's just that I said that this woman is really unacceptable. Otherwise, I don't know what kind of trouble she will cause you. You should divorce her quickly. You can't keep such a troublemaker."

Zhang Tieshan did not respond to the woman, but just said: "Aunt, the compensation must be paid. Do you think fifty cents is enough?" Then he took out fifty cents and handed it to the woman.

The woman looked at the money handed to her and hesitated, but Wu Dazhu pushed the money back and said, "Tieshan, we grew up together, how can I take your money? We just come here to ask for an apology. This woman in your family is really too much. Take the money back. If you give me money, you are not recognizing me as your brother."

Seeing that Wu Dazhu was determined not to take it, Zhang Tieshan didn't want to continue to argue, so he took the money back, then looked at Li Hehua fiercely, and said in a cold and heavy voice, "Why don't you apologize to your aunt quickly!"

Li Hehua's good impression of Zhang Tieshan began to decline because of this sentence. Isn't this man the husband of the original owner? Why did he conclude that she was wrong without asking any questions and asked her to apologize right away? Is there such a husband?

It seems that the original husband also disliked her.

However, this was not her fault, so she couldn't apologize.

Li Hehua's expression also turned cold, and he looked at Zhang Tieshan fearlessly, "What did I do wrong that you asked me to apologize? She said I hit her, so I hit her? Then why didn't she say anything about how she injured my hand like this? How can you be so indiscriminate!"

Before Zhang Tieshan could say anything, the woman spoke up: "You are talking nonsense. Your injury has nothing to do with me. You are slandering me! How can an old woman like me beat you? Look at your body shape, and then look at my body shape."

The people around looked at the two people and agreed with the woman's words. In addition, considering what the original owner Li Hehua had done before, everyone chose to stand on the woman's side.

"It must be Li Hehua who slandered me. She is an unreasonable person."

"Yeah, it's good enough for someone like her not to bully others. Who else can bully her?"

"This Li Hehua is really getting worse and worse..."

Li Hehua listened to the voices of the people around her and suddenly felt powerless. The original owner was such a bad person that no one was willing to stand on her side. Now no one was willing to speak for her, not even her husband.

Zhang Tieshan's expression became more and more unsightly as he listened to what the people around him said. Seeing that Li Hehua didn't seem willing to apologize at all, he became even angrier.

This woman is really capable of doing anything disgusting. He really regretted marrying her. Otherwise, his mother, his younger brother, and Shulin wouldn't have lived such a miserable life. It's all because of her! If he could, he really wanted to strangle this woman to death. Even now, she still refused to repent and was still causing trouble. Such a woman was disgusting to look at for even a second.

But now she is still his wife in name only, and what happens between them is a family matter. He doesn't want to resolve it in front of outsiders and make others laugh at him. It's better to wait until the people leave before resolving it.

Zhang Tieshan apologized to the Wu family again: "Aunt, Dazhu and Dazhuang, I'm really sorry for you. I apologize to you. I will teach her a lesson later. Just tell me what compensation you want. Just let it go for my sake this time."

Wu Dazhu grew up with Zhang Tieshan after all. Seeing him apologize like this, he didn't want to embarrass him anymore. Besides, his mother really didn't have a serious problem, so he just gave his brother some face this time. He patted Zhang Tieshan on the shoulder and said, "Tieshan, this time I'm doing this for your sake, but please don't let it happen again, otherwise we won't give anyone any face."

Zhang Tieshan patted his shoulder and thanked him silently.

Wu Dazhui left with his large family. When the people who came to watch the fun saw that all the Wu family members had left, they naturally didn't want to stay any longer, so they followed them. In a few moments, only Li Hehua and Zhang Tieshan were left in the yard.

Li Hehua didn't know how to face this man who was a stranger to her. In addition, the man seemed to be convinced that she was wrong, so she didn't want to pay attention to him. She simply turned around and went into the house to continue looking for her club.

But just as she entered the house, the man behind her followed in, sat down on the chair, and said coldly: "Li Hehua, pack up your things and leave today. My house can't accommodate a big Buddha like you."

Li Hehua paused and his heart skipped a beat.

These words clearly meant to divorce the original owner, which meant to divorce the current her.

Original owner, original owner, how did you become like this? I've only been here for two days, and you've either been scolded or beaten, and now you're getting divorced. You've caused me so much trouble, and she has to take all the blame.

If it were in modern times, Li Hehua would have nodded and agreed without hesitation. She would just divorce him. He was not her real husband anyway, and she was not willing to take over someone else's husband. But this was not modern times. This was ancient times where women were extremely unfair. If she was divorced, she didn't know what the consequences would be. After all, she didn't know whether the original owner had a mother's family. She had nowhere to go if she left this house. How could she find a place to live in the short term?

Therefore, she cannot be divorced for the time being. At least she needs to find a way to earn some money and have her own house.
