Chapter 13

Zhou Qingzhong clenched his fists. From his posture, he looked like he was about to rush over and beat Chu Qingzhi up. “Who are you calling a coward?”

“You,” Chu Qingzhi said calmly. “She’s your wife. When she’s bullied, not only do you not help her, but you also let others bully her. Are you still a man?”

For some reason, the last sentence hit Zhou Qingzhong’s sore spot. He immediately became irritable. “Chu Qingzhi, You are also someone who was abandoned by others. What right do you have to talk to me like that?”

Chu Rong immediately stood up. “Who said that no one wants Qingzhi? We’re all her family.”

Zhou Qingzhong snorted. “I’m talking about her adoptive parents. Her adoptive parents are rich in the county. When they don’t want her, they kick her out like a dog. Why is she talking to me like she is a noble?”

Chu Qingzhi’s expression became colder and colder. If the Host heard this, she would probably commit suicide again. “It doesn’t matter if I’m a dog or not, but you’re worse than a dog.”

Zhou Qingzhong glared at her. “You…”

Chu Qingzhi interrupted Zhou Qingzhong. “Me what? Is your wife to blame for not getting pregnant?”

Zhao Xiuhua could tell that Chu QIngzhi was hinting at something and quickly asked, “What do you mean?”

Chu Qingzhi said coldly, “You have to ask your son!”

Zhou Qingzhong looked like his secret was about to be exposed. He glared at Chu Qingzhi. “Don’t talk nonsense.”

Chu Qingzhi snorted. “Do you have a guilty conscience?”

Zhou Qingzhong threatened, “Chu Qingzhi, I advise you not to stay out of it. Otherwise, you won’t be helping her but harming her.”

Chu Qingzhi sneered. “Why? Do you want to kill your wife?”

Fu Haiyan was so frightened that her body trembled. She had been married to Zhou QIngzhong for two years. The first year was fine, but the second year, her body was covered in bruises. Sometimes, she couldn’t help but wonder if she would be beaten to death by this family.

Chu Qingzhi turned around and asked Fu Haiyan, “Are you still going to live with him? If you continue, you’ll never be able to get pregnant and will always live in misery.”

Fu Haiyan’s body trembled violently. She was afraid of being beaten, but she was already married. If she left, where else could she go?

Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably. “Qingzhi, I don’t know what to do.”

Zhou Qingzhong walked over fiercely and pulled Fu Haiyan over. “How vicious you are. I’ve heard of people persuading others not to get divorced, but I’ve never heard of people persuading others to get divorced.”

Fu Haiyan instinctively struggled to break free from Zhou Qingzhong. She had a feeling that if she was pulled back home, what awaited her would definitely be a good beating. She was terrified.

Zhao Xiuhua rushed over. “Chu Qingzhi, what do you mean?”

Chu Qingzhi looked up at Zhao Xiuhua, whose face was twisted with anger. “Your son is infertile, but you actually blame your daughter-in-law. You’re really crazy.”

Zhao Xiuhua’s face twisted with anger even more. “What do you mean my son is fertile?”

Just now, Zhou Qingzhong had scolded her for being a dog, so there was no need for her to show mercy. “Your son got into a fight with someone when he was young and was injured. He doesn’t have the ability to have children at all. If you want a grandson, wait until your next life.”

Zhao Xiuhua’s vision darkened. “You, you’re talking nonsense!”

Zhou Qingzhong’s expression instantly turned ferocious. He looked like he wanted to swallow Chu Qingzhi in one bite. Such a secret was exposed by Chu Qingzhi in front of everyone. It was as if he had been stripped naked and was forced to walk in the public. He was filled with hatred and anger.

Fu Haiyan lowered her head. She had been married for two years and was still a virgin, but her mother-in-law wanted her to give birth. She had been enduring such a grievance for two years.

The others looked at Zhou Qingzhong in shock.

Zhou Qingzhong was furious. He picked up a rock from the ground and threw it at Chu Qingzhi.

The rock was as big as a plate. If it hit someone, they would definitely bleed.

Chu Qingzhi wanted to move aside, but her family was still standing behind her, so she could only reach out to catch it. After she caught it, she threw it back at Zhou Qingzhong. In the end, it hit him between the eyes and knocked him back, causing him to bleed on the spot.

Everyone was stunned.

Hearing the argument, the villagers all came over to watch. Tang Jinghong was among them. He saw Chu Qingzhi catching the rock clearly.

His eyes flickered. It seemed that he was not the only one in this village who hid his ability.

Zhao Xiuhua quickly went to help Zhou Qingzhong up. At the same time, she shouted, “Chu Qingzhi, why did you hit my son? Chu Qingzhi, you’re a vicious woman. Not only did you ruin my son’s reputation, but you also hit him with a rock. You’re too uncivilized.”

Everyone found Zhao Xiuhua unreasonable. Chu Qingzhi was only self-protecting.

Chu Qingzhi mocked, “I couldn’t be bothered to ruin your son’s reputation. I just can’t stand you bullying a good girl, so I interfered.”

Zhao Xiuhua said fiercely, “Go, go and invite the village chief over. Chu Qingzhi maliciously injured my son. I can’t let this matter rest just like that.”

When the village chief heard that the two families were arguing, he came over. “Why are you arguing here?”

When Zhou Qingzhong’s father heard that something had happened at home, he rushed back from the field and entered the house with the village chief. “What are you doing?”

Zhao Xiuhua quickly exaggerated what had just happened.

The village chief said seriously. “Chu Qingzhi, how do you know that Zhou Qingzhong can’t have children?”

Chu Qingzhi replied casually, “Because I’m a doctor.”

A doctor?

Everyone immediately looked at Chu Qingzhi, their gazes filled with judgment. If Chu Qingzhi was a doctor, they could not afford to offend her. Everyone would get sick and need a doctor.
