However, Lady Lee did not plan to get up. She just sat on the ground and cried out, "Aiyo, you've beaten him to death. Is there still no justice in the world …"
The surrounding people came over one after another, but they were all standing far away from the village to watch the commotion. No one came forward, Lady Lee and the Wu family were famous for being rude, and they were not people that should not be trifled with.
Although no one dared to step forward, some people, in order to curry favor with the, had rushed over to inform the old lady Xu Family. After all, currently, there was an Elementary Scholar who had become an official in the county office.
Lady Wu looked at Lady Lee who was acting so arrogantly on the ground and ridiculed him, "Where is the person who was beaten to death? I'll tell her family to prepare the coffin. "
Lady Lee angrily pointed at Wu Dai and scolded, "You wicked bitch, didn't you just pounce on me and beat me up?"
Lady Wu smiled and replied, "Really? I didn't hit anyone, who saw me hitting someone? "
Xu Erlang replied, "I saw it."
Cheng Xi laughed coldly, "You're her son, so of course you followed her. And here I was saying that you had beaten her up." Who didn't know how to be a rascal? So she turned right and wrong around for them to see.
Xu Erlang was so angry that he wanted to rush towards Cheng Xi, "You cheap girl, see if I'll punish you or not."
Xu Sanlang timely blocked in front of Cheng Xi, causing Xu Erlang to not dare to act rashly, but Cheng Xi continued to pour oil on the fire behind Xu Sanlang, "Look, with your attitude, you dare say that others will beat people up? "I think it's already good if you don't beat him up. You're simply asking for a thief to catch him."
Lady Lee sat on the ground and shouted, "You slut, you're talking nonsense."
Cheng Xi curled her lips, "I am spouting nonsense? Didn't you say that you beat him to death? Are you really so full of yourself? Besides, where are you hurt? Bring it out for me to see. "
When Lady Lee heard Cheng Xi's words, not only did she feel pain in his chest, she was also so angry that she couldn't even breathe, she sat on the ground and panted heavily. Thinking about the actions of Lady Wu when she beat him up, she only hammered on her chest.
Xu Erlang was infuriated to the point that he couldn't breathe anymore. In the end, he couldn't help but reach out to push Xu Sanlang away, while his other hand reached out to grab at Cheng Xi who was behind Xu Sanlang, attempting to grab him. Xu Sanlang lifted his hand to grab onto Xu Erlang's wrist, and with a exerting force, Xu Erlang cried out in pain, "Aiyo, Xu Sanlang, what are you doing?
Xu Sanlang said coldly, "Does Second Brother plan on making a move against little brother's wife?"
Xu Erlang was in so much pain that he couldn't take it anymore, he didn't care what Xu Sanlang said, "Aiyo, hurry up and release them, or else I'll make you pay."
Lady Lee saw that his own son could not get back at him either, so she scolded, "You all, just you wait, I'm going to get my Fourth Brother to arrest you all and lock you all in jail."
Cheng Xi laughed when she heard it, "Do you think that your family opened the dungeon, so you can close it just like that? Besides, why did the Fourth Uncle listen to you and lock us up? The Fourth Uncle will not pester you like this. "
Cheng Xi sneered in her heart. Did she really think that they were the only ones that would bully others? Isn't this Fourth Brother still Xu Sanlang's Fourth Uncle?
"What are you all doing? Stop it right now, you from Second Brother, stop howling, I'm not dead yet, I'm still alive, a person who lost my Xu Family. "
Everyone followed the shouting and looked over, they saw Old Madam Xu coming over with her back hunched.
When the old lady from the Xu Family opened her mouth, Lady Lee shut it obediently, she did not dare make a single sound, the old lady had already been dissatisfied with her for the past few days, she did not want to anger the old lady, if not, she would not have a good life in the future. Xu Sanlang had also let go of Xu Erlang's hand, but he was still tightly protecting Cheng Xi behind his.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Old Madam Xu was satisfied, she placed her hands behind her back, and said: "Who said anything, what exactly happened?"
It was unknown what he was thinking, but when he heard Old Madam Xu's question, he reacted first: "Xu Erlang and his son said that they are not allowed to let us work in the county anymore, there are too many things to do at home, they are too busy, and told us to obediently stay home and work."
Ever since Xu Sanlang had gone to the County City with him, the work in the fields had all been done by the people in the Xu Family. Old Madam Xu was originally very dissatisfied with the mother and son's lazy performance in the Lady Lee, but after hearing Cheng Xi say this, the way she looked at Xu Erlang and Lady Lee became abnormally gloomy and cold.
Lady Lee saw the old lady's expression, and explained anxiously, "Mother, it's not like that, we heard that Xu Sanlang was working for Cheng Family, who would have known that the Wu family would actually hit people."
However, Cheng Xi said, "Didn't you say that you can't take care of things at home, and want us to go back and take care of things? You also said that we won't give you the money we earn, why should we not work? In any case, earning money is like stuffing ourselves into the bottomless pit of the Fourth Uncle.
After Cheng Xi finished speaking, Old Madam Xu's eyes became even colder and fierce. As for helping Cheng Family, she had been completely ignored.
Lady Lee saw the change in Old Madam Xu's expression and was so angry that her face flushed red, but she still had to carefully explain to Old Madam Xu in a hurry, "Mother, it's not like that, we were just calling Xu Sanlang to go back and work, not, we're not here to let him work for Cheng Family, but for our family to work for. Mother, it's definitely not like what Xi said, and not to mention what Fourth Uncle said either."
Cheng Xi laughed coldly, "Look, aren't you admitting it yourself? You don't want us to work in the towns to earn money, and want us to go back and do farm work."
Once Cheng Xi finished, the Old Madam Xu pointed at the Lady Lee and scolded him, "You lazy fellow, you haven't done so much work in the fields, why are you here spouting nonsense? Hurry up and do some work in the fields, otherwise don't eat at night."
Xu Erlang said in dissatisfaction, "Milk, it's not like that, it's them, they are speaking nonsense."
The Old Madam Xu glared at Xu Erlang, "Following a lazy kid like you isn't anything at all, but you did learn to be lazy. Hurry up and go work, otherwise you won't have any food to eat tonight."
Lady Lee and Xu Erlang were so angry that they puffed their beard and glared at each other, but because of Old Madam Xu, the two of them had no choice but to obediently turn around and leave to do their work.
When the Lady Lee followed Xu Erlang away, the Old Madam Xu turned to look at Xu Sanlang, "What are the two of you still doing here? Hurry back to the county city to work, if you delay anything, let's see how I'll take care of you."
Cheng Xi looked at the arrogant old lady in front of him, and rolled her eyes in disdain.
Xu Sanlang answered, "I will return to the county city tomorrow."
Old Madam Xu remembered the words Xu Sanlang said when she left in the morning, and the curses in her mouth were eventually swallowed back, she glared at the two then turned and left, as long as it didn't delay him earning money, she would be fine. As long as she helped Cheng Family with the day's work, since there was no one left to do the work at home, and thinking of the group of lazy foodies, she reckoned that she would be lazy even without looking around, so she quickened her pace to leave.
Lady Wu spat towards the back of the Old Madam Xu before she turned to Xu Sanlang and said, "You guys can go back first, in case the Xu Family Member comes again later to cause trouble."
Xu Sanlang replied, "It's fine, Aunt Wu, you can do it first, I'll send them back first."
Cheng Xi quickly replied, "We can go back ourselves, it's not like we don't know the way, you should go back to work first, and come back later to eat."
But Xu Sanlang insisted, "I'll send you guys off."
The Aunt Wu seemed to have thought of something, and replied, "Alright, let's go back, and come back after dinner."
Xu Sanlang actually nodded his head in agreement, but instead, he frowned and said, "You said that you're going back to the city tomorrow, and there's still so much work to be done in the fields."
It was only the morning, and there were already a few groups of people causing trouble. If he stayed any longer, he did not know what would happen, but they had all come back to help with the harvesting, and there were still so many jobs in the fields, so Xu Sanlang had to help out a bit less.
