Chapter 1044: Since He Has Spirit, Then Grant His Wish
But Fu Yan Cheng didn't care what he said; he simply dragged the man to the center of the courtyard: "Second Sister-in-law has done so much for us, so naturally I must repay her in kind. It's also a good chance to see if you've been slacking off in the countryside."
The moment these words fell, he moved with swift agility to the opposite side, extending a hand in a 'please' gesture.
Seeing this stance, Fu Yanwei looked toward Fu's mother, who had poked her head out of the kitchen, with a plea for help: "Mom,..."
Before the plea could leave his lips, Fu's mother immediately shrank back into the kitchen.
Just as Fu's father had said last night, she had endured enough these past few days; since her second son wouldn't properly discipline his own wife, letting her stir up trouble in the house, he must bear the consequences.
Because Fu's father had served in the military, the children in the family had been trained since childhood, except that the fourth son had followed his father's old path.
She knew the youngest son had a measure of control and never intended to interfere; in fact, she even hoped the youngest son would teach him a lesson.
Only then did Hao Yanhong realize: "Yan Cheng, you're a soldier; isn't this bullying?"
Hearing the commotion outside, Fu's father also came out, simply watching the scene in the courtyard.
Seeing his father's expression, Fu Yanwei knew that a beating today was unavoidable.
If he didn't even have the courage to accept the challenge, his father would likely be completely disappointed in him. Turning to face his emotionless fourth brother, he said: "Then let's just spar lightly; how does that sound?"
After Fu Yan Cheng nodded lightly, he gave him no chance to dawdle and threw a fist straight at his face.
Terrified, Hao Yanhong screamed: "Stop! Are you crazy?"
At this, not only were Fu's father and Fu Yan Cheng angry, but even Fu Yanwei flew into a rage: "Shut up! You do nothing but cause trouble for me all day long."
The moment the words fell, a punch landed squarely on his face.
Fu Yan Cheng had done it on purpose, but after that first punch, all the blows landed on the body; each strike hit the flesh, yet without causing actual injury, leaving Fu Yanwei bitterly complaining in his heart.
During the fight, Hao Yanhong tried to step forward and stop them, but Guo Wenjing, standing at the kitchen door, blocked her: "It's just a spar; don't be nervous."
Without thinking, Hao Yanhong retorted: "It's not your man getting beaten, so of course you don't care. Move out of my way immediately."
Fu's father, however, shot a cold glance over: "This is a matter between brothers; stay out of it."
Hearing the Eunuch's words, Hao Yanhong was even more furious; Fu Yan Cheng was only picking a fight with her husband to stand up for his wife-in-law, and the Eunuch was clearly taking sides!
After this, everyone saw that Fu Yan Cheng was intentionally holding back against his second brother, but the more he did so, the more Fu Yanwei felt ashamed: "If you're going to fight, fight properly; what's the meaning of pulling your punches?"
Fu Yan Cheng had simply wanted to teach his second brother a lesson, so that he wouldn't know his second sister-in-law's true nature and still fail to discipline her, letting her act with impunity in the house.
Since he had such spirit, then let his wish be granted.
From then on, Fu Yan Cheng used skillful force; he couldn't injure the man, but it hurt terribly. After only a few exchanges, Fu Yanwei couldn't take it anymore and seized an opportunity to wave his hand, saying: "Stop, stop, stop."
After Fu Yan Cheng stopped, he took a bottle of Safflower Oil from his pants pocket and tossed it over: "Second Brother, your skills have declined significantly. You must train much more in the future. I don't expect great progress, but at the very least, you shouldn't regress. It seems you've slacked off quite a bit in the countryside."
Hao Yanhong's face now looked like a painter's palette. After rushing over to support Fu Yanwei, she glared at Fu Yan Cheng: "You are biological brothers; how could you strike so heavily?"
