Cheng Xi was finally unable to endure it any longer, came out from behind Xu Sanlang, and unceremoniously kicked the youth who was teasing him. The youth then squatted on the ground and started to wail.
Cheng Xi was a little regretful now. How big of a deal was this? Moreover, she was too overestimating herself. The reason why she was able to hit them was because the teenagers were careless and did not expect her to step out and kick them. Looking at the youths who were glaring at her like a tiger ready to pounce, she wondered if she would have the chance to run if she turned around and ran.
Cheng Xi did not expect the big stupid Xu Sanlang to protect her behind him, blocking the other young men.
"Xu Sanlang, how shameless are you? You stole our brother's wife, yet you still have the face to protect us?"
Xu Sanlang did not reply, he only coldly opened his mouth and said, "Get out of the way."
The young man who was kicked by Cheng Xi, who was squatting on the ground and wailing for a long time, finally recovered. She stood up, stared at the two of them coldly, and said, "You want to let it go after kicking me? If you don't crawl under me today, I won't let you off. "
After Cheng Xi heard the arrogant words of the youth, she pursed her lips and could not help but retort in her heart, "Just because I'm a bit older, I came here today, do you really think you're a grandpa?!"
The young man's threat seemed to be completely useless against the two of them. Cheng Xi pursed her lips in disdain, but Xu Sanlang's expression did not change at all. As she spoke, he raised her head and looked at the youth blocking her path.
A few youths who were blocking the way suddenly felt a chill, and then they saw that when Xu Sanlang looked at them, his eyes were cold. The youth tried his best to raise his voice, as if he was more confident, "Can you hear me? "Do as Young Master says, or else don't think of leaving today."
However, the young man's words were in exchange for Xu Sanlang's simple and cold "step aside".
"If you refuse a toast, you will be punished. Capture these two people and hold them down." After saying that, the youths blocking the way started to approach the two of them step by step, as if they were going to capture them.
There were many people around, and they were all children. They seemed to be afraid of these young men and didn't even dare to approach them from a distance.
In the end, Xu Sanlang moved the two bundles of firewood on his back to the side, and then said to Cheng Xi who was behind him, "Stand far away."
Cheng Xi retreated back a distance obediently, she thought in her heart, should she take the chance to slip down the mountain and call for reinforcements, but who should she call for? Village Head? Or was it the Xu Family Member?
Then, Cheng Xi dispelled her thoughts, because just as she was about to do so, she realized that she did not know how to go down the mountain.
Just as Cheng Xi was thinking about all these, a wail came from the side. Cheng Xi looked over, and felt that she was overthinking it, the fighting strength of those youths in front of Xu Sanlang was simply trash.
Seeing that she did not need to worry at all, Cheng Xi also stood far away like the others, watching the show from the sidelines.
"Stop! Xu Zihao, what are you doing?"
Cheng Xi recognized the person who spoke, the one who had received the beating with the pig head face was indeed Xu Erlang, who had received the beating yesterday, but was now putting on the airs of a big brother, scolding Xu Sanlang quite nicely.
A few people stopped due to Xu Erlang's arrival and Xu Sanlang did not make any further moves either. He called out "Second Brother" and went to carry his wood.
Xu Erlang stared coldly at Xu Sanlang who was carrying the firewood in front of him, and scolded: "You sure are capable, to actually dare fight with people outside, go back and think of a way to explain this to Grandma."
Cheng Xi looked at Xu Erlang in disdain. She wanted to hide the unwillingness that had appeared in her eyes, but she was afraid that if these people did not beat him up, they would be beaten up by Xu Sanlang.
Xu Sanlang maintained his silence and ignored Xu Erlang. This made Xu Erlang even more unhappy and he continued to rebuke, "You actually chopped off this little bit of firewood so early in the morning? I'll send these back, you guys continue cutting. "
Seeing that Xu Sanlang really planned to put the firewood down, Cheng Xi couldn't help but to stand up and say, "We cut less than expected, I wonder how much firewood Second Brother chopped this morning?"
Xu Erlang did not do anything the whole morning. Hearing Cheng Xi's words, she looked at Cheng Xi gloomily, "Slut, do you have any right to speak? Shut up."
Cheng Xi squinted her eyes, she had the urge to rush up and slap Xu Erlang a few times, but she resisted.
Seeing that the few youths who were fighting with Xu Sanlang were actually standing behind Xu Erlang, Cheng Xi was sure that they were being ordered by Xu Erlang, and were obviously looking for trouble to beat Xu Sanlang up.
"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and chop firewood." Seeing the little girl behind Xu Sanlang obediently shut his mouth under his scolding, Xu Erlang became even more complacent and clamored.
Cheng Xi obediently followed Xu Sanlang up the mountain to chop firewood. As she was about to leave, he meaningfully look at the few youths and memorize their appearances in her heart. When she had the ability in the future, she would slowly take care of them.
This time, Cheng Xi did not stay at the side to watch Xu Sanlang chop firewood. Instead, she took the initiative to come over and help.
When she thought about how Xu Sanlang had easily dealt with a few youths by himself, and actually submitted in front of Xu Erlang, Cheng Xi felt uncomfortable in her heart, so she opened her mouth and said, "This Xu Erlang is such a hoodlum, you should beat him up badly."
Xu Sanlang paused for a while before he continued to chop wood, and replied, "If you still want to have food, don't provoke him."
Cheng Xi curled her lips and did not speak anymore. She also understood why Xu Sanlang would endure in front of Xu Erlang and Xu Family Member was extremely eccentric. Cheng Xi suddenly thought of a question and asked: "Where are your parents?"
Xu Sanlang paused for a moment before replying, "Dead."
Hearing Xu Sanlang's reply, Cheng Xi obediently shut her mouth.
There were some people that you couldn't avoid without provoking them.
When Cheng Xi followed Xu Sanlang and brought the firewood to the entrance of the Xu Family Courtyard, Cheng Xi saw the few "Great Buddha" who were blocking the entrance with a darkened face and knew that these people were going to settle their debts from yesterday. She just did not know how he was going to settle the score with them.
Cheng Xi felt that the firewood on her back was quickly pressing down until she was unable to breathe. Even if she had carried more than half of the firewood on his back with Xu Sanlang's help, she had only carried a small distance to the Xu Family Courtyard and it was pressing hard on her.
Seeing that the people blocking the door did not have any intentions of letting them in, Cheng Xi directly squatted down to unload the basket along with the firewood. Standing behind Cheng Xi, with the firewood still on her back, she called out "Grandma".
Old Madam Xu snorted, while Lady Lee looked at Cheng Xi coldly from the side, and scolded him, "Scoundrel, look at how badly you have harmed my son. Zi Xiong, tell me, how do you think you should punish them?
Xu Erlang who was at the side had a pig's head and looked at the two in front of him with a complacent expression, as he said, "I want them to kneel down and kowtow to me as they admit their wrongs."
Cheng Xi's eyes widened, how did this Xu Erlang think of a way to kneel down and kowtow in apology?
What made Cheng Xi even more speechless was that the old lady at the side actually pulled at his face and asked, "Did you not hear that? Kowtow and admit your wrongs to our Zi Xiong. "
Cheng Xi thought that Xu Sanlang would admit his wrongs in front of the Xu Family Member, he wouldn't really kneel down and kowtow, right? She would not kneel to a scumbag like Xu Erlang.
Turning her head to look at Xu Sanlang, she saw that Xu Sanlang was looking at Xu Family Member with reddened eyes. Looking at Xu Sanlang, Cheng Xi felt sympathy for him.
The two of them did not move the entire time, but Old Madam Xu was already impatient, so she opened her mouth to scold them again, "Are you deaf? I told you all to kneel down and kowtow to Zi Xiong and admit your wrongs. "
Seeing Xu Sanlang in a daze from the shock, Cheng Xi could only answer for herself, "What did we do wrong, why should we kowtow to him and admit our wrongs?"
"You still dare to talk back? Today, I will teach you a lesson." While clamoring, Old Madam Xu had already fished out a bamboo whip from the side and was holding it in her hand.
Cheng Xi looked at the thumb sized slender bamboo whip in Old Madam Xu's hands.
He quickly took the wood chopping knife from the basket on his back and pointed at the old lady who was walking towards him. Cheng Xi retreated back to Xu Sanlang's side and said, "Damned old granny, if you dare hit me today, I'll fight you to the death."
Old Madam Xu saw that Cheng Xi was trying to stake her life against her, but she did not dare to go up, and did not want to show any weakness, "Reverse it, put down the firewood blade, or else my Xu Family will divorce you."
Cheng Xi unconcernedly curled her lips, "Forget it, forget it."
If she really let her go, she could just go back to her Cheng Family first. Maybe her Cheng Family would be better when she returned, or at least her brother, who cared about her and pampered her, would still be there. As for the person who planned to sell her, she would think of a plan when she returned.
Old Madam Xu only scared her casually, how could she give up? She had given up on taking back the money and still lacked a job, which was not worth it.
But Old Madam Xu was not willing to give up, she could not do anything to this slut, and looking at her suicidal attitude, and the wound on her head, she kept reminding her that this slut dared to slam her own life into a coffin, if she really had to cut her own blade, that would be a huge loss.
Cheng Xi proudly looked at Old Madam Xu, who was fuming and blowing her beard and glaring at him. Even if you say that no matter how unreasonable a person is, he wouldn't care about his life.
At this time, Lady Lee who was helping at the side did not say anything, Xu Erlang who was standing behind his mother did not make a sound, and Lady Ma who was behind her silently stood there without making a sound.
