Chapter 31

Who didn’t know how to be a Scammer?

Widow Li was only a countryside woman and didn’t understand any of the words said. After she heard Lu Jiao speak, she simply extended her neck long and screamed, “Children play around all the time. What do you mean they stole? Your kids hurt my grandchildren so you need to pay up.”

Just then, her son, Shen Xiaoshan jumped to his feet, “Pay up! Your four children are boys. My children are girls. Your boys are stronger. Pay up!”

Many people from the crowd judged Shen Xiaoshan at this point.

Shen Xiaoshan was Widow Li’s son and was very spoiled growing up. He never worked and got by through cheap tricks and scams. Many people hated him.

Lu Jiao snickered and stared at Widow Li. Then, slowly, her gaze landed on Shen Xiaoshan, and the curl on her lips deepened.

“The fault of the children is the fault of their father. Shen Daniu and Shen Erniu learned to steal at such a young age all thanks to you. Your daughters hit my sons and now you’re asking me for money? Come, come, let me give you money.”

Then, she extended her hand and pulled on Shen Xiaoshan’s collar.

She stomped her foot towards Shen Xiaoshan’s knee, which caused him to kneel. Then, she pressed into Shen Xiaoshan and started to hit him.

Everyone in the yard was stunned. Widow Li was the first to react. She screamed and grabbed onto Lu Jiao’s hair. Lu Jiao slapped her and shoved her away. Widow Li then fell to the ground.

Lu Jiao raised her hand and continued to hit Shen Xiaoshan, “Your daughters are little so I cannot hit them. But that doesn’t mean I cannot hit their father. Hehe, you hit my sons and have the audacity to come over here to scam me? Just look at how capable you are. Come, come, you want money? Let me disable you then we can talk money.”

Lu Jiao continued to strike and aimed her fists at all the most painful points on Shen Xiaoshan’s body.

She was a medical doctor and knew which spots would cause the most pain and wouldn’t leave a scar.

Shen Xiaoshan started to cry then. As he cried, he cursed, “Damn you fat b!tch! Let me go! Ahhh, it hurts, let me go!”

Widow Li cursed and wanted to rush over. However, the aggressive way Lu Jiao acted scared her.

She turned her head and saw her daughter Shen Xiu and pushed her forward, “Are you a dead woman? Go stop her! Do you want your brother dead?”

Shen Xiu didn’t dare to go up there. Right now, Lu Jiao’s behavior terrified her. Her chubby cheeks quivered with every violent movement and the way she slammed her fat fists made her look like a yaksha. When she shoved Widow Li, Widow Li practically flew away. If Shen Xiu went over there right now, she would be hit.

Shen Xiu could only stand on the side and howl, “Lu Jiao, let go of my brother. Hitting people is illegal.”

Lu Jiao ignored her and continued to beat him. At this point, Shen Xiaoshan was rolling around in pain and shrieked uncomfortably. In the end, he started to beg.

“Fat b!tch, stop hitting me. I won’t ask for money anymore. I won’t. Let me go!”

Outside the yard, the Village Leader, Xie Fugui came over. Terrified that someone might die today, he shouted, “Yunijn’s wife, stop!”

Lu Jiao respected the Village Leader and therefore stopped. She then picked up Shen Xiaoshan like he was a dead dog.

Shen Xiaoshan’s entire body was in pain. His pale face produced much tears and sobs and he appeared extremely tired.

But the arrival of the Village Leader made him want to curse again. Just then, unexpectedly, Lu Jiao reached into her sleeves and pulled out a small blade and held it against his neck.

“Pay up.”

Who didn’t know how to be a scammer? Let’s go. Let’s all scam each other. Let’s see who ends up with more money.

Inside the yard, everyone watched in a daze and nobody dared to move. All they could think about was how terrifying Yunjin’s wife was.

Everyone stared at Lu Jiao and thought that compared to now, the old Lu Jiao wasn’t considered scary.

Shen Xiaoshen instantly started to cry out of fear. As he cried, he begged, “Yunjin’s wife, put down the knife. I don’t want the money anymore. I don’t.”

The Village Leader raised his head and asked Lu Jiao, “Yunjin’s wife, what’s the meaning of this?”

Lu Jiao raised her head and said, “His children stole from my home today and hurt my children. Afterward, she came to my door asking for money. Yunjin was worried and managed to struggle his way out of bed. His condition had worsened as a result. This means all the money I spent on his medicine has gone to waste.”

“He’s now unconscious and it’s not clear how he’s doing. So I cannot just let go of what happened here today. The Shen family can pay up, or they can go to the judge with me to see how the judge will rule this situation.”

Widow Li trembled at the thought of going before a judge. However, she didn’t want to pay anything so she screamed, “You hurt my son like this and you want money? We are not going to pay.”

Lu Jiao waved around the surgery blade in her hand and coldly laughed, “You’re not paying up? Then let’s go to the judge. You claim my quadruplets hurt your Shen Daniu and Shen Erniu? I’m sure the judge can tell right away whether or not my children hurt yours.”

Widow Li’s face turned white. She glanced at her granddaughters then at the four little beans. Only now did she realize the position she was in.

However, she refused to pay up so with a thump, she sat onto the ground and screamed, “You hit my son and you ask us for money? We have no money to give you. Oh my god, heavens, how can someone be like this? I might as well die.”

Lu Jiao ignored her. Today, she planned to make it clear to every villager here that she was not someone to be taken advantage of.

Lu Jiao snickered and said, “No money? Then let’s go to the judge. You said I hit your son? Then let’s let the judge see if your son is injured.”

At those words, Widow Li stood up and walked to Shen Xiaoshan.

Shen Xiaoshan started to cry, “Mom, it hurts. My entire body hurts. Everything is swollen.”

Widow Li started to check out her son but did not see any flesh injuries.

She couldn’t believe this and continued to search. In the end, she found nothing.

Lu Jiao chuckled, “I’m a woman who just saw her husband vomit blood and her own children get hurt. Out of fury, I hit him a few times. How could he be swollen all over?”

Widow Li was in a daze. The villagers were also stunned.

Shen Xiaoshan continued to shriek in pain.

Village Leader Xie Fugui narrowed his eyes at Lu Jiao. She has changed. She was so different from before and was now so capable. The Village Leader didn’t need to think too hard to realize what Lu Jiao intended.

She didn’t really want to fight the Shen family or go to a judge. She simply wanted to use the Shen family as a case study so the villagers know not to mess with her.

Xie Fugui exclaimed silently how strategic and tactful this woman was. Though Xie Yunjin is now disabled, his family will continue to do well. He must make peace with this woman. After all, he didn’t want today’s fight to alert the judge.

Xie Fugui made his decision and said to Widow Li, “You need to pay Yunjin’s family.”

Widow Li would never accept this and wailed, “No! We have no money. She hurts my son and then asks for money? We have none!”
