Chapter 256

Xu Damao originally saw Liu Guang Fu and his brother coming over, and still thought He Yuzhu would be given a severe Household Chores this time.

Who knew Liu Shumin was so fierce, a single bench blocked the two men.

No choice, he had to go up himself, and he started to play dirty.

Liu Hai Zhong seized the opportunity and gave He Yuzhu two black eyes.

Yi Zhonghai saw Sha Zhu getting beaten and also started to help out.

He Yuzhu found the chance and threw Liu Hai Zhong to the ground several times.

In a moment, wounds began to appear continuously on both of them.

Finally they were really going at it, their strikes becoming heavier and heavier.

San Da Ye saw it was bad and went straight to the back courtyard.

Sha Zhu now also knew that Xu Damao was playing dirty.

He also started to deal with Xu Damao; clearly aiming a slap at Er Da Ye, it suddenly landed on his face.

"He Yuzhu, you dare to whip me."

He Yuzhu dodged Er Da Ye's Black Sand Palm and gave Xu Damao a fierce glare.

"Xu Damao, you little dog, you really think I don't know, you damn well messed with me."

Hearing that, Xu Damao felt a pang of guilt, still thinking it was Liu Guang Qi's doing.

Actually, he meant stirring up trouble, causing him harm.

"You're talking nonsense, when have I ever screwed you over?"

Xu Damao was stubborn.

Seeing Xu Damao deny it, He Yuzhu pointed to his own black eye.

"How did I get hurt here?"

"You damn, just wait and see how I'll Household Chores you."

Er Da Ye, because Yi Zhonghai was stirring up trouble, was inexplicably beaten several times by Sha Zhu; now hearing Sha Zhu's words, he understood what was going on.

He looked at Yi Zhonghai, his gaze also turning gloomy.

He took the chance while attacking Sha Zhu, imitated the move, and swung a slap at Yi Zhonghai's face.

Pa………

That slap was really loud.

The onlookers munching melon seeds, shouting along, telling them to stop fighting, instantly fell silent.

Er Da Ye slapped the eldest uncle.

Yi Zhonghai's face turned red with anger.

"Liu Hai Zhong, are you crazy?"

Liu Hai Zhong beat Sha Zhu while apologizing.

"Sorry, I didn't notice, Old Yi, keep your distance."

He was thinking in his heart, "Damn it, I'm feeling wronged, you think I didn't notice you pulling a black face?"

Eventually the four of them tore their faces apart, and their actions became increasingly unabashed.

In a moment, the fight between two people turned into a melee of four.

The only person who seemed to be sincerely trying to break up the fight, Yang Qing, seeing the situation, hurriedly ran away—it was too dangerous.

"You guys, stop, neighbors."

"Why bother, why bother."

Afterwards he looked around at the people.

"Hurry up and pull them apart, you're really just watching them fight to the death."

The people around, hearing Yang Qing's words, hurriedly went down, each pulling one person.

They actually thought they could pull them apart, but the result was that the few who had already gone all out could not be suppressed by them at all.

"Oh shit... why are you kicking me?"

"I'm going, He Yuzhu, where are you kicking?"

……

……

Chickens flying, dogs jumping, chaos in a heap.

At that moment Chen Hong came over, seeing the chaotic scene, she let out a loud shout.

"All of you, stop."

She is from the Jiedao, this matter cannot be ignored; even Yang Qing's attempt to break up the fight has not stopped until now.

Liu Shumin and Liu Guangtian, the two brothers, hearing Chen Hong's words, immediately ceased their standoff.

And the four who had gone all out were still tangled together.

Seeing they still wouldn't stop, Chen Hong darkened her face, took a few steps, rushed into the field, kicking and striking, and in an instant separated the four.

"Damn, Chen Hong's performance scared the people of this compound silly; Chen Hong turned out to be so formidable."

Yang Qing was startled, and hurriedly rushed over.

"Wife, how can you be so reckless? Four men— that's not so easy to pull apart. Are you hurt? Where did you get hit?"

Just a moment ago, Chen Hong with a grim face, wanting to beat someone to death, instantly broke down.

She angrily pushed Yang Qing away.

"It's fine, I wasn't hit. Alright, you step aside— trying to break up a fight only makes the fighting fiercer; you guys really have a talent for it."

The four who had been separated, their hair and clothes were already in tatters.

Xu Damao's big red underpants were all exposed.

"Sister Chen, I was breaking up the fight, and He Yuzhu hit me."

Xu Damao's hair was messy, his eye sockets bruised, his good cotton jacket had several buttons popped off, and the cotton stuffing was blown out.

He looked extremely pitiful.

Chen Hong glared at He Yuzhu.

Sha Zhu flinched at Chen Hong's glare, his eyes shrinking a bit, and he hurried to explain.

"Xu Damao was taking sides; if it weren't for him, I wouldn't have suffered such a serious injury."

Looking at Sha Zhu again, he was even worse—panda eyes, his face swollen into a pig's head.

His clothes were torn and messy, with cotton fluff flying everywhere.

Seeing this, Chen Hong felt pity and couldn't bear to blame them further.

"Then you also shouldn't be hitting people—don't we have a courtyard meeting? What matter can't be resolved there, forcing you to resort to violence?"

Liu Hai Zhong spoke up for Xu Damao.

"It was Yi Zhonghai who was taking sides; Xu Damao only followed."

"Speaking of which, Yi Zhonghai, as the eldest elder, you came to take sides—are you fit to be the eldest elder?"

Yi Zhonghai also shouted angrily.

"Whether I'm qualified or not, I know—there's no fairness in breaking up fights; if I side with you, it's unfair to you; if I side with Zhuzi, it's fair to Zhuzi."

"The root cause is that you won't listen to advice or to mediation; none of us three can pull you apart."

"You, as the second elder, got into a fight with Zhuzi—do you still think you're in the right?"

"What matter can't be brought up at the meeting, forcing you to come to blows?"

He Yuzhu pointed directly at the heart of the problem.

"Chen Hong, Liu Hai Zhong was the one who first picked the fight and also threw the first punch."

"I can't just stand there and let him hit me, can I?"

Liu Hai Zhong shouted angrily.

"If you weren't destroying my family and smearing me, would I resort to violence?"

Second Aunt also said.

"Exactly, he's been sowing discord in our family."

"He's made our family lose unity and virtue."

"We were clearly doing it for the kids' good, but in their mouths it became maltreatment, became unforgivable sins, and they blamed us as the masterminds who drove our own son away."

"Our family used to be wonderful, but he tore it apart completely, and now he's smearing us even more."

"How are we supposed to live like this?"

He Yuzhu shouted.

"Nonsense—when have I ever stirred up trouble in your family? Your family's affairs don't need outside meddling; what relation does the bright sky have with you? Everyone in the courtyard knows."

"As for the second elder, he doesn't even know where he heard that rumor, claiming I had Liu Guang Qi do the construction."

"Damn, if I were that capable, what would I be doing as a cook?"

Speaking, it tugged at the wound on the corner of his mouth, and he kept hissing.

Liu Shumin also joined in; as an onlooker, she roughly guessed the whole story.

"I think it's because Liu Guang Qi hasn't come back this year, so the second elder feels uneasy, using the rumor as an excuse to take out his anger on my Zhuzi."

"This, that—everything's just an excuse."

"Who hears a rumor and then rushes to someone's door to accuse them, refusing to stop?"

"If everyone were like the second elder, how could we live?"

"In life, who doesn't have a rumor or two?"

"If we take them all seriously, we might as well do nothing but fight every day."

Liu Shumin's words could be said to hit the nail on the head—indeed, she's well read.
