Thinking so, she waved her hand at Qiao Dami, “Daini, go and get the village chief from the Tong family.”
“Okay!” Qiao Dami stood up, put the melon seeds in his hand into the small cloth bag hanging on his body, and trudged off towards the direction of Tong family’s residence.
“This is a family affair, why bring in Village Chief Tong?!” Qiao Chang’an had been carefully watching Qiao Xiaomai’s movements, he quickly spoke up upon hearing this.
Qiao Xiaomai curved her lips into a faint smile full of coldness, “Who said this is merely a family matter? You intentionally causing father’s leg to break. According to Daqi Laws, that’s intentional harm, this incident should be taken to the County Town to see the magistrate.”
At this remark, Qiao Changkang burst into laughter, “Third brother, since you dared to do it, you should have foreseen this day. Wrongdoings will meet retribution!”
“Nonsense!” Qiao Chang’an felt panic and anger. He gritted his teeth, clenched his fist and viciously struck towards Qiao Changkang’s face, loudly saying, “Xiaomai, I am wronged in this matter. Your fourth uncle gave me plenty of wine today, he tricked me into talking nonsense when I was drunk.”
“Then he came and accused me of breaking your father’s leg. He’s obviously spouting nonsense, trying to frame me!”
“Qiao Chang’an, dare you swear to heaven! It was clearly you who intentionally loosened a tile leading to our second brother’s fall and breaking his leg. You are the murderer!” Qiao Changkang roared back defiantly.
Wu Yinfeng scoffed and joined the argument, “Qiao Chang’an, dare you swear! Would you dare to swear on the life of your son Xiaobao! If you did do it, then your son Xiaobao won’t have a good ending. If you truly didn’t, Xiaobao will be fine.”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Chang’an looked even more deflated.
He had two daughters before he had this son, whom he adores even more than the Sun Family adores Sun Junyan. At this moment, he was speechless.
While he was at a loss for words, Zhao Shufen let out a roar like a wild beast, her strength greatly increased as she tried to strangle Wu Yinfeng’s neck, “Whore, you shameless and black-hearted whore, dare you curse my son, I will strangle you to death!”
Xiaobao is also Zhao Shufen’s lifeblood. At this moment, when her son was inexplicably involved, her motherly instincts kicked in, and she seemed to have unlimited strength.
Wu Yinfeng was quickly overpowered and her face turned red from being strangled. She tried to pull Zhao Shufen’s hair while simultaneously coughing and yelling for help, “Dahuo, Dahuo, save me!”
Qiao Dahuo, thirteen years old, was her and Qiao Changkang’s eldest son. He had been scared senseless just now, but seeing his mother’s face turning red, he quickly came forward.
Qiao Xiaomai also frowned and said, “Hurry, separate them, we can’t let someone die here!”
As soon as she said this, a few onlookers stepped forward to intervene. A fight is a fight, but it can’t result in a loss of life.
Four or five people worked together and finally separated Zhao Shufen and Wu Yinfeng.
Wu Yinfeng’s neck bore two noticeable finger marks, her face was as red as a cooked shrimp, covered with many blood marks. She was bent over and coughing loudly.
Zhao Shufen was not in a better state either, her hair was dishevelled, and her neck and face were covered in blood marks. Although there were no fingerprint marks on her neck, she was being held back by three people, still struggling to lunge at Wu Yinfeng, “Whore, you should be the one struck by lightning! You’re the one who won’t die well!”
Wu Yinfeng rolled her eyes as she coughed and retorted, “It’s your man who did it. If anyone is to be struck, it’s you. If you don’t dare to swear on Xiaobao, then you’re admitting it!”
“You’re talking nonsense!” Zhao Shufen jumped up, spat viciously at Wu Yinfeng.
“Wait, stop arguing for now.” Qiao Xiaomai intervened, disrupting the heated exchange that was about to break out from Wu Yinfeng.
