Protagonist:

Chai Mi

Sun Yuguang hadn't even finished cursing the street before he was cursed by the old Niu family until his ears were red and his neck thick!

"You're farting!" Sun Yuguang jumped with rage, "It was that beast Niu Dianfeng who did the hitting! Don't you try to shirk it! Hurry up and pay! Medical expenses! Nutritional expenses! Not a single penny less!"

"Pay money?" Old Man Niu coldly laughed, stepping forward a step, "Pay for your mother's coffin money! My son was working fine at the grain depot, and your family's broken shoe stirred things up so the police took him away! We haven't even come to settle accounts with you yet! You still dare to come demand money? Scram! If you don't scram, don't blame me for being impolite!"

"Exactly! You don't even piss a puddle to look at your own virtue! A country girl, climbing onto our Dianfeng is your old Sun family's ancestral tomb smoking green smoke! Ungrateful thing! Hurry up and scram!"

Old Woman Niu also followed along cursing, spittle stars nearly spraying onto Sun Shengyue's face.

Sun Yuguang was cursed until his face was red and neck thick, a surge of evil fire rushing straight to his forehead, no longer caring about fear, reaching out to push Old Man Niu: "You're unreasonable! If you don't give money today, I won't leave!"

Old Man Niu didn't expect this listless old thing to dare make a move, was pushed into a stagger, and instantly flew into a rage: "Good you old coffin pulp, you dare fight me?"

He backhanded and fiercely pushed Sun Yuguang a shove.

Sun Yuguang cried "aiyo" and fell onto the cold stone slab ground, groaning in pain.

Sun Shengyue saw her father pushed down, screamed: "Dad!".

Unknown where the strength came from, she fiercely rushed over wanting to support her father, simultaneously shouting at the Niu family's old couple with a crying voice: "What right do you have to hit people!"

With this rush forward, she happened to crash into the furious Old Woman Niu.

Old Woman Niu was bumped by her into a sway, even more furious, conveniently grabbing a tree branch by the door, raining blows down on Sun Shengyue's head and face: "Little slut! You still dare bump me? Beat to death you shameless money-losing goods!"

"Ah!" The branch brought wind sound fiercely lashing onto Sun Shengyue's head, shoulders.

She only felt her head buzz with a sound, severe pain transmitting, a stream of warm liquid flowing down her temple, blurring her eyes.

Her vision went black, heaven spinning earth turning, softly she fell down.

The street's onlooking neighbors let out a burst of alarmed cries.

"Ai! Blood drawn!"

"Stop hitting! A life will be lost!"

"Hurry report to the Police Station! This old Niu family really can get their hands dirty!"

Several neighbors couldn't bear to watch, seven hands eight feet helped the Sun father and daughter to the side.

Sun Shengyue's forehead wound still gurgled blood, the person already fainted past.

Sun Yuguang holding his head-broken blood-flowing daughter, sat on the ground: "My daughter ah, can't live anymore...... Old Niu family killed someone ah......"

Not long after, someone told Chai Mi about this matter.

Chai Mi was busy as could be, but Sun Yuguang getting beaten was actually within expectations.

What kind of family is the old Niu family? Could they be easy to deal with?

And at this time, guessing Niu Dianfeng has already been taken away by the Police Station.

If before being arrested, going to demand money or whatever was still somewhat explainable, now the person is arrested, going again is just asking for a beating.

Of course, even if Chai Mi didn't instigate Sun Yuguang to go, guessing Sun Yuguang would go anyway.

Sun Yuguang came down to find Liu Zhanggui, nothing more than wanting money.

But Sun Yuguang is also like this, empty-handed, bringing a sickly crooked girl daring to go to the door and act righteous?

This isn't called righteous, this is called delivering a head a thousand miles.

Chai Mi also didn't care to meddle, afterwards just went home.

Returned home, the room was steaming with heat.

Su Wan was just putting the washed spicy vegetable bits into the big jar layer by layer, one layer spicy vegetable bits one layer coarse salt.

Just pickling pickled vegetables.

"Back? The shed all fixed up?" Su Wan asked without lifting her head.

"Mm, plastic cloth all covered, the shelf counts as sturdy." Chai Mi scooped a gourd ladle of water to wash hands, "Pickling this many pickled vegetables?"

"Autumn spicy vegetable bits cheap, pickle more, winter saves trouble." Su Wan straightened her waist, pounded her lower back, "Shengyue's side...... no news? Your dad went to the Police Station, don't know how it is."

"Who knows. Police took away for questioning, not that fast. My Old Aunt's husband that person...... sigh."

Su Wan sighed: "Creating karma ah...... that child is also bitter life. But words said back, that Niu family...... can really admit?"

"Admit or not admit, the Police Station must have an explanation." Chai Mi appeared not too concerned, picked up one of those bought thick biscuits bit a mouthful, "Starved to death."

Mother and daughter had a sentence no sentence speaking.

Chai Youqing cursing and grumbling returned.

"That little turtle egg Niu Dianfeng, in the Police Station refuses to admit to death! Says he fundamentally didn't use force to push Shengyue, says Shengyue herself body weak stood unsteady fell! Still reverses right and wrong, says Shengyue belly's wild seed originally wasn't his, not certain whose, fell serves right! Frames him for hitting!"

"He dares say this?"

"Isn't it! Chief Zhang questioned, he just bit this not letting go! Says Shengyue is broken shoe, deliberately cheats him! Also says...... also says Shengyue when good with him wasn't a yellow-flower virgin! This his mother's isn't farting?"

Chai Mi slowly chewed the corn cake: "Police believed?"

"Believe a fart!" Chai Youqing spat a mouthful, "Chief Zhang's face looked very ugly, saying Niu Dianfeng's attitude was terrible, but Shengyue's injury appraisal hasn't come out yet, and no eyewitness at the scene saw him lay a hand on anyone... that little brat has backing and fears nothing! He's still clamoring to sue Shengyue for false accusation! You say, isn't that infuriating! Liu Zhanggui was also furious enough to explode, slamming the table over there!"

Su Wan worried frown bitter face: "This how to handle? Shengyue that body......"

"How handle? I see that little child just owes a beating! If not in Police Station, I......"

Several people just speaking this.

Heard a burst of noisy clamoring sound from far to near. Only saw Old Liutou leaning on cane, cursing and grumbling walking in front, behind followed Chai You Fu, and three four same surname Chai clansmen, all hearing wind sound from fields or home rushed over.

"His mother's! Old Niu family counts as what thing? Move our Old Chai Family's people? Think we all died out?" Old Liutou full breath cursing.

"Liu Yeye, Second Uncle, how did you come?" Chai Mi went up to meet ask.

"How did you get here?" Lao Liutou's eyes widened. "Liu Chunren's boy ran home to tell us! Said Shengyue girl got beaten bloody by the Niu family! Yuguang that useless waste is no help at all! If our Old Chai Family doesn't step up now, how will we ever hold our heads high in the ten li eight xiang again? Do you really think our Chai Family has no one left? Hah?"

The several men behind also started clamoring:

"Right! Can't be cowards!"

"Bullying our Old Chai Family's girl, that just won't do!"

"Go! To the town! Find the Old Niu Family and have words!"

"Gotta let them know know how formidable we are!"

Chai Youqing took one look at this formation: "Go! Sixth Uncle! With your words, I've got confidence in my heart! Today we absolutely must get justice for Shengyue!"

Lao Liutou looked at Chai Youqing, then at Chai Mi: "Chai Mi, you're a sensible person, you say what to do? We'll all listen to you!"

Chai Mi felt a bit helpless in her heart.

Actually, isn't all this Sun Shengyue's own doing?

If she hadn't gone to marry while heavily pregnant, how would this kind of thing happen?

However, the scene still has to be maintained.

Her face showed no expression, she just said calmly: "Sixth Grandpa, Second Uncle, various uncles, first thank everyone for standing up for justice. We're going to see the person, not to fight. Cousin Shengyue is badly hurt, saving her is urgent. As for the Old Niu Family... when we get there, we'll see the situation. If there's reason we'll reason, but also can't let our people be beaten for nothing. Let's go."

The purpose of her words was: going is fine, reasoning works, but absolutely cannot hit people.

If people are hit, then it's not worth it.

"Fine! Chai Mi speaks correctly! See the person first!" Lao Liutou waved a hand. "With reason you can travel the world! Go!"

Thus a group of people, Lao Liutou leading, Chai Youqing clutching an iron shovel close behind, Chai You Fu and several other Chai Family men surrounding, Chai Mi walking calmly at a position slightly behind the crowd, heading toward the town in the direction of the Niu Family, mighty and imposing yet carrying a stifled anger, they set off.

On the road, Chai Youqing was still indignantly describing to Lao Liutou how Niu Dianfeng had denied everything at the Police Station.

Lao Liutou listened until his beard bristled: "Little rabbit scoundrel! He's turned the world upside down! Just wait, I'll see how I curse his Old Niu Family ancestors!"

Chai Mi frowned, but constrained by the actual situation, she also couldn't say not to go.

Chai Mi didn't really want to meddle in this muddy water, but not going wasn't an option either.

So she persuaded Lao Liutou: "Sixth Grandpa, later when we act we must have a sense of proportion. My cousin hasn't actually married, only got engaged, this matter isn't easy to handle. If she were married, then us injuring the Old Niu Family people wouldn't be a big deal, but now it won't do. In a bit, we'll vent anger for my cousin, but don't use heavy hands, just slap their big mouths..."

When the Chai Family group mighty and imposing killed their way to the Niu Family's street, from afar they saw Sun Yuguang still slumped sitting on the ground outside the Niu Family's tightly shut main gate, holding in his arms the unconscious Sun Shengyue whose forehead bloodstains had already somewhat congealed, crying with snot and tears, his mouth repeating over and over just those few sentences: "My daughter ah... Old Niu Family killed someone ah... Can't live on ah..."

Lao Liutou took one look at this scene, roared at the Niu Family main gate: "Old Niu Family! All of you get out here for me! Daring to touch our Old Chai Family's people, you've eaten bear heart leopard gall, open the door!"

The Niu old woman ran out cursing: "Yo he! Where'd this old coffin pulp come from, running to my door to wail for the dead? Bringing so many people, what do you want? Robbery?"

Chai Youqing immediately squeezed forward, pointing at the blood on Sun Shengyue's head: "What for? Look at the good deed you did! Beating my niece like this! Are you even human?"

The Niu old man at this time also squeezed to the doorway, face dark: "Fart! Who beat her? She herself didn't stand steady and crashed into the door frame! Nothing to do with us! Hurry up and take these two stars of misfortune away, don't dirty my doorway! What? Relying on numbers to blackmail people? Let me tell you, the Police Station just took my son away, our family's full of fire with nowhere to vent! You'd better be sensible and scram!"

"Scram?" Lao Liutou was so angry his beard bristled. "Beat someone and still this arrogant? I've lived this many years, never seen you such unreasonable turtle bastards!"

The Niu old woman with hands on waist cursed: "Reason? Reason with who? Reason with this knocked-up-by-a-bastard marriage-swindling broken shoe? Reason with this poor sourpuss who can't birth a son only births money-losing goods? Pah! A whole family of lowly bones! Shameless themselves yet reversing right and wrong! I see it's you ganging up to blackmail our Old Niu Family!"

Chai You Fu couldn't hold back, jumping and cursing: "You fart! Your son's the beast! Kicked the child in my niece's belly to death! That's murder! Murder, understand?"

"Murder? Haha!" The Niu old man seemed to have heard the world's funniest joke.

"That bastard in her belly, whose seed it is still unknown! Dropped it, serves her right! Saves it being born to lose face! Maybe she herself fooled around with some wild man and aborted it, blaming my son? I tell you, my son said at the Police Station, it was she herself who fell! Blackmail! You're gang blackmail!"

"Your son farts! Uncle Zhang already said his attitude was vile! Wait for the injury appraisal to come out, you'll look good!"

"Appraisal? Appraise a fart! Who knows if this blood of hers isn't self-made? Just to blackmail money! A family poor and crazy! Wanting money like crazy! My son had the rotten luck of eight lifetimes to get stained with your family's lump of stinking dog shit!"

"Old vile woman! I'll tear your mouth!" Lao Liutou hated shrews cursing in the street and not reasoning most in this life, especially cursing his Old Chai Family's people.

"Come on! Old coffin pulp! You dare move a bit try try? See if I don't take apart your few old bones!"

The Niu old woman not yielding in the least, a posture of 'if you've got the guts hit me'.

Chai Mi watched with cold eyes, opportunely inserting a sentence: "Who says my cousin blackmailed? Just now the street neighbors all watched, my cousin's head this gash, this totally can't be denied, right?"

"Fart your mother's fart!" The Niu old woman poked at a sore spot by Chai Mi, instantly exploded, pointing at Chai Mi's nose cursing: "Where'd this little slut come from stirring trouble here? You and that lying broken shoe are the same goods! Who saw? Who saw? If you've got ability call the witness out!"

In the crowd heads together whispering, buzzing, but no one stepped out.

The Niu old man also followed roaring: "Exactly! Empty words falsely accusing good people! You Chai Family are a bunch of bandits! Relying on numbers to bully us old couple! Neighbors, you all look! You all judge reason! Is there still king's law! They're here to beat down the door!"

Chai Youqing had long been unable to hold back, looking at niece's ghastly pale face and Old Niu Family refusing to admit it and still reversing right and wrong's shameless face, hot blood rushed straight to his forehead: "What king's law with this kind of beast! They don't admit, I'll beat until they admit!"

Speaking, one arrow step rushed up, target straight at the still clamoring Niu old man.

"Dog's! Daring to hit my dad!"

From inside the Niu Family gate immediately rushed out two young youngsters, Niu Dianfeng's two younger brothers.

The scene instantly chaotic!

"Beating people! Chai Family beating people!"

Crowd buzzing louder, some shaking heads, some curling lips, some low-voice discussing:

"Old Niu Family usually arrogant, serves them right!"

"Right, that old woman's hands so vicious, look at that girl beaten..."

"Chai Family also too angry to bear."

"Manage? How manage? This is family affair can't untangle."

"Niu Dianfeng that kid originally not good stuff."

"Hit just hit, anyway neither are fuel-efficient lamps."

But not a single person stepped out to pull apart the fight, let alone help the Niu Family.

Curses, slaps, wails, shoving, onlookers' discussions... mixed at the Niu Family doorway into a pot of scalding hot chaotic congee. Chai Family many people strong, and holding in anger, though didn't use killing moves, those big ear slaps landed solidly, beating Old Niu Head and Niu Old Woman dizzy and disoriented, faces burning hot with pain, besides howling and splashing dirty water, not a bit of strength to fight back. Those two Niu Family youngsters also surrounded by several Chai Family men, took quite a few hits, wretched beyond measure.

Chai Mi stood a bit outside the melee circle, heart feeling this scene really had a bit of absurd comedic quality.

She cleared her throat: "Ai ya ya... alright alright, almost enough! Sixth Grandpa, Dad, Second Uncle! Don't really beat out some mishap! We came to reason, not to be bandits! The Police Station should be here!"

"What doing! What doing! All of you stop! Unfilial to heaven! Street brawling, still have king's law in your eyes!"

Right at this time a person squeezed in, loudly stopping them.

Everyone turned toward the sound, only to see Niu Family Village Director Wang Xiandong rushing into the courtyard, panting. He wore a worn Zhongshan suit, his hair slicked back in a big back style, his face now a mix of anxiety and anger as he pointed at the scuffling crowd: "Old Niu! Madam Niu! Members of the Chai Family! All of you, break it up! Heard me! What does this look like!"

The Chai family stopped, and Old Niu's family stopped their wailing and struggling, merely panting heavily, clear slap marks on their faces, still spraying insults at each other across the way.

Almost at the same time, a piercing siren approached from afar and screeched to a halt at the Niu family's door.

Police Station Chief Zhang of the township police station brought two young officers, his face dark, striding into the courtyard in long steps.

"Lawless! Anyone who strikes again will all be handcuffed back to the station!"

The village chief where the Niu family lived could only make the crowd pause, but the police station chief's words, no one dared not listen.

After all, in this era, the deterrent power of the police station was real and tangible.

Chief Zhang said calmly: "The miscarriage matter, Niu Dianfeng has already admitted at the police station that it was caused by his shoving! Do you Niu family have anything else to say?"

These words were like a basin of ice water, instantly poured over the heads of the old Niu couple.

Old Man Niu and Old Woman Niu were both stunned.

"He admitted it? Impossible! My son wouldn't admit it! That tramp fell herself! She's framing him!"

The Niu family continued to refuse to admit it, arousing the Chai family's anger, who immediately cursed back: "You Niu family are the tramps, the whole family are big tramps."
