Protagonist:
Chai Mi
Liu Zhanggui's words left Chai Zhongxiao speechless...
File a false accusation...
Win or lose, Chai Zhongxiao had no money to hire a lawyer!
"No! This should be handled by the village!"
"No, no, no, the village doesn't have that authority. This isn't a civil dispute; it's an economic dispute. This can only be resolved by filing a false accusation. You want to cheat... want money, so I can't handle it. If you say Chai Mi broke Wang Huirong's arm and you want Chai Mi to apologize, I can help you ask about that. But you insist on money; if you want money, go file a false accusation yourself." Liu Zhanggui was very impolite: "So, since things are like this, don't come to my house to make trouble anymore. If you keep making trouble like this, I have the right to call the police."
"What the hell? You're being unreasonable and want to call the police to arrest me? Come on, arrest me then!!!" Chai Zhongxiao cursed.
By this time, Chai Mi had finally finished eating and came with Song Qiushui.
"Oh my, quite lively. What's wrong, you two tired of living, coming here to cheat people?"
Chai Mi's voice wasn't loud, but it pierced Chai Zhongxiao's roar like an ice pick.
The crowd fell silent instantly, their gazes all focused on the door.
"Chai Zhongxiao." Chai Mi called him by name directly, with no respect at all: "Had enough trouble? Performed enough? You say you want to cheat money, so cheat it, why come to someone else's house? Nothing more than using filial piety as an excuse. What era is this? This is a society ruled by law. Liu Zhanggui is right; if you have the ability, sue me. I definitely have no money, so give up on that completely."
Chai Mi said, pouting: "I have money, but I won't give it to you. Hehehe, are you angry?"
"You little slut! Who the hell are you talking to!" Chai Zhongxiao was so provoked by this attitude that he stomped his feet, "Look everyone! A beast who sees her own grandmother's arm broken and does nothing to save her! Still dares to show off!"
"Does nothing to save her?"
Chai Mi laughed: "No... Wang Huirong's arm, who broke it?! It was you! Chai Zhongxiao! It was you, this husband, in your own house, hitting your wife's arm with a stick and breaking it! Then you broke your wife's arm and came out here to cheat money! You have the nerve to talk about me. You broke your own wife's arm, figure it out yourself. Who the hell owes you anything? Your son owes you, I don't owe you. If you have the ability, go ask your son yourself."
The crowd instantly erupted!
The looks toward Chai Zhongxiao all changed.
"Damn! Didn't know! Was Wang Huirong's arm broken by Chai Zhongxiao?"
"You ask me, who do I ask? But they did fight yesterday, it was intense, but I didn't go pull a fight, I was too lazy to move."
"Look at Wang Huirong's condition, it doesn't look like a fall. A fall should shatter bones into pieces, only a hit can break it like that. Besides, look at Wang Huirong covered in injuries, this is clearly being beaten. It must be Chai Zhongxiao beating his wife, without restraint, until something happened."
"Bullshit! You're spitting blood!" Chai Zhongxiao was fierce outside but timid inside, speaking stubbornly: "She fell herself! How could I hit her? And break her arm? Is this nonsense? Can everyone believe that?"
"Fell?"
Chai Mi sneered, looking at Chai You De: "Chai You De! My good Third Uncle, you're not deaf or blind, you live in the same courtyard as the old man and old woman, tell me what you said yesterday when you came to my house? Did you say the old man broke the old woman's arm and needed to go to the hospital?"
Chai You De's legs went soft, and he almost knelt.
"I... I..."
Chai You De's face turned red from holding it in; he had indeed said that at the time, and he also felt Chai Zhongxiao was not quite normal, this cheating people was a bit too bizarre.
Mainly, Chai You De didn't want to pay money for Wang Huirong's medical treatment.
After all, it was Chai Zhongxiao who hit her.
Why should Chai Zhongxiao have a bad temper, break Wang Huirong's arm, and make others spend money to treat her?
Even biological parents wouldn't do that.
Besides, Chai You De wasn't the head of the household; he had no money at all, so even if he wanted to manage it, he couldn't.
So at that time, he just told the truth.
And Chai You De felt...
Relatively speaking, Chai Mi was more useful than Chai Zhongxiao.
Chai Mi was now successful and had money, while Chai Zhongxiao and Wang Huirong had nothing...
Poor people, and still so much trouble.
"What what!" Chai Zhongxiao roared, trying to shift the focus: "Even if I hit her, so what? My wife, I manage! It's not your turn, you Money-Losing Goods, to point fingers! Her arm being broken is a fact! You sons and grandsons should pay for the treatment! No matter what, your grandmother's arm is broken; raising you wasn't easy, now it's time for you to support us, you should manage. Otherwise, why have children in the first place? Raising sons for old age, raising sons for old age, now it's time to raise sons for old age; if you don't want to manage, that's not allowed."
"Oh my..."
After Chai Zhongxiao said this, even Song Qiushui on the side was unhappy.
Song Qiushui stepped out with an attitude of insisting on meddling: "No, are you sick in the head? You broke your own wife's arm, and still want your children to pay for it? If you beat her to death, you'd still need someone to make you a coffin board."
"Besides, Wang Huirong is your wife; you broke her arm, you don't pay for treatment, but instead bring her to pressure your son and granddaughter? Is there such a thing under heaven? Chai Zhongxiao, are you poor and crazy? No shame? You're over sixty years old, how can you be so shameless?"
Song Qiushui didn't let Chai Zhongxiao retort, pointing directly at Wang Huirong: "And you! Wang Huirong! You're not a good thing either. In this village, day after day we hear you two fighting, we're sick of hearing it. You two affect our village's harmony road. Your man broke your arm, you dare not speak. Your son Chai Youqing wanted to give you some good food with a bowl of dumplings, but your man smashed it, hit him, and drove him out of the house! You watched with your own eyes! Now you're being dragged out to be used as a tool! If you had any backbone, who should be collecting the debt?! It's Chai Zhongxiao who broke your arm! Or someone else forced by Chai Zhongxiao to have no way out?!"
Chai Mi pulled Song Qiushui behind her, afraid she would be hit by Chai Zhongxiao.
"What Song Qiushui said is right. You two old things, you really can't go on living, no shame at all. Still talking about filial piety? Our Old Chai Family's ancestors' faces have been lost by you two. Fortunately, my Lao Taye died early, otherwise you two would have made him so angry he'd dig his own hole and bury himself."
Truly can't afford to lose this person!!!
Wang Huirong was scolded until she trembled all over, ashamed and humiliated, in pain and afraid, opening her mouth only to cry "wuwu," unable to say a word.
"As for my father Chai Youqing..." Chai Mi's tone was filled with bone-deep sarcasm and determination: "He was driven out of the house by you this pair of 'good parents,' and then driven by me this 'unfilial daughter' to the ancestral hall. Since last night, he has nothing to do with the old house or our two families! His land, he farms it himself! His hunger, he bears it himself! His life or death, he shoulders it himself! If you think your son has money, go ask him for it. I don't care; as this granddaughter, you've never looked up to me anyway. Besides, without my father Chai Youqing, what are you two?"
Chai Mi said it cleanly and decisively.
Anyway, she had already driven Chai Youqing out of the house.
Without that relationship with Chai Youqing, Chai Mi was even less willing to recognize Chai Zhongxiao and Wang Huirong as grandparents.
Wang Huirong's arm was broken, wanting money for treatment? Find her man Chai Zhongxiao! Find her other two sons Chai Youfu and Chai You De!
As for Chai Youqing?
That works too.
If he has money.
Of course, if Chai Youqing sells blood to treat Wang Huirong, Chai Mi doesn't object either.
But Chai Mi wouldn't get involved.
Chai Mi wouldn't pay, nor did she have any obligation to manage this.
The crowd exploded! This information was too much! So Wang Huirong's arm was broken by Chai Zhongxiao? Chai Youqing sent dumplings but got beaten and driven away instead? Chai Mi even split from her father to live separately? Was Chai Zhongxiao bringing his wife to blackmail his son and granddaughter into dividing the household?
The wind direction changed instantly!
"Oh my god! This Chai Zhongxiao is awesome, breaking his own wife's arm! Awesome……"
"The first hero of Sanjiacun! I'm so excited I want to go back and break my wife's arm……"
"Stop bragging, if you don't let your wife beat you to death, that's already good……"
Everyone discussed heatedly.
But most were blaming Chai Zhongxiao.
"You…… you……" Chai Zhongxiao trembled all over with anger, pointing at Chai Mi, but couldn't think of a retort. The immense shame and rage and the panic of his plan going bankrupt nearly drove him mad, "Rebellious! Rebellious against heaven! Old man today……"
"Don't you dare compare. Rebel against your grandmother! Old woman has nothing to do with my father, Chai Zhongxiao, what are you?" Chai Mi looked at Chai Zhongxiao aggressively: "I'll give you one more chance. Forget the past, but if you curse me again, see if I don't beat you to death."
Song Qiushui, standing aside, also said: "Right. Beat him!"
Chai Zhongxiao was left speechless by Chai Mi, and under the scorching gazes of the crowd, had nowhere to hide.
Mainly, he was truly afraid now.
Chai Mi had completely turned against him, and if Chai Mi really struck, Chai Zhongxiao thought he couldn't win.
Since he couldn't win, he could only run.
He suddenly yanked the nearly collapsing Wang Huirong, hissing fiercely but inwardly timid: "Good! Good, you Chai Mi! You wait for me! We're not finished! You De! Let's go!"
He dragged the wailing Wang Huirong, like dragging a torn sack, squeezing out of the crowd in a sorry state under the villagers' contemptuous gazes and whispers, just wanting to quickly escape this Asura field where his dignity was trampled.
Chai You De also quickly lowered his head and followed, sneaking away.
Chai Zhongxiao was very angry now.
Money, not gotten.
Anger, still suffered.
He was fierce outside but timid inside, couldn't beat Chai Mi, but he could beat Wang Huirong……
"Fucking hurry up and walk……"
Chai Zhongxiao dragged Wang Huirong, and Wang Huirong screamed in pain.
The big fellows couldn't stand it anymore:
"Isn't…… Chai Zhongxiao, what are you doing? Your wife is at least a person. You're pulling and hauling, dragging livestock?"
"Right. That Wang Huirong's arm is already broken, and you still drag her? You're afraid Wang Huirong won't die!"
"You have the ability to torment, but don't you have the ability to cure your wife's illness? Which man treats his own wife like this……"
Chai Mi listened to everyone's words and sneered in her heart: Deserved!
Chai You De also couldn't stand what everyone said, and said in a low voice: "Dad…… so many people here. You pulling my mom like this…… isn't it ugly……"
"Roll you fucking bastard! Chai You De, you also roll for me! I raised you for so many years, you turn against me here, becoming a traitor?!" Chai Zhongxiao said angrily.
Chai You De lowered his head, speechless.
He was actually quite innocent.
Mainly, even if Chai You De didn't say it, everyone actually saw it, Wang Huirong's arm was indeed broken by Chai Zhongxiao.
At that time, Chai You De went to call Chai Youqing and had bumped into others.
Lies couldn't be told.
"Dad…… Dad, slow down…… Mom she……" Chai You De followed behind, looking at his mother's pale face and twisted arm, finally couldn't help but advise in a low voice again.
"Slow down?!" Chai Zhongxiao suddenly turned back, his bloodshot eyes glaring viciously at Chai You De, spit almost spraying onto his face, "You ungrateful coward! Why didn't you speak for your father at Liu Chang Gui Jia's house just now? Now pretending to be a good person? Roll! All of you roll! All useless things!"
He was now full of anger with nowhere to vent. Failed to blackmail money, but was exposed by Chai Mi in public, losing all face, and Chai You De had also become a traitor in his eyes.
He no longer paid attention to Chai You De, but dragged Wang Huirong even harder, his steps faster and more urgent.
Wang Huirong stumbled underfoot, like a dead dog, and was dragged home.
"What a sin……" Among the watching crowd, an old man couldn't stand it anymore, shaking his head and sighing, "This isn't dragging a person, this is dragging livestock into a soup pot……"
Chai Mi didn't say anything, nodding to everyone as a signal.
Afterward, she and Song Qiushui returned to their own home.
Since they had just finished breakfast, there was nothing to do.
After chatting for a while, Song Qiushui felt a bit sleepy and went back to sleep.
Chai Mi went to the small shop to buy some things, then went to Liu Chang Gui Jia's house to look around and express some apology.
Everything was thus over.
With Chai Youqing no longer at home, Chai Mi felt comfortable even while eating.
By lunchtime, Chai Mi pulled Song Qiushui over again, mainly because she had something to ask her.
"What thing? You want me to watch the house? Eldest Sister…… you've been drinking, right? I can feed cattle? That cow would feed me instead."
Song Qiushui was still waiting for someone to feed her.
"I'm planning to let my mom take my sister to my second aunt's house for a trip, no one at home?" Chai Mi spread her hands to indicate, since her mother and the others were all gone, no one was at home.
"What about your father? Really driven away, not wanted?" Song Qiushui rolled her eyes at Chai Mi.
"Let's talk about it in a few days. I feel, hehe…… do you believe it, this time Chai Zhongxiao is finished. He has nowhere to go, can't blackmail money, and Wang Huirong's arm is also broken. You say……" Chai Mi gestured: "If it were you, you are Che Lianyun. Now you see two old fogeys occupying space at home, what would you do?"
"Throw them both into Dagou……" Song Qiushui laughed hahaha: "Just beat them both out. Close the big gate, and deal with your father like that……"
"Hiss…… you really hit the sore spot!"
