Chapter 256 The Wrongly Accused Scoundrel

The villagers' chatter was like a slap in the face to the Zhao family.

"Do you have anything else to say?" The village chief stared at the Zhao family with a serious face.

Knowing that playing the victim wouldn't work, Mrs. Zhao stopped pretending to be pitiful. She brushed the dirt off her body and stood up from the ground.

"Humph! It's all because of his own incompetence. He can't give birth to a son, and he can't work. He got sick at a young age. Does this whole family have to starve to death just to treat this sick child?" Old Mrs. Zhao had a look of indifference on her face.

"Hou Xiaoyan! Listen to what you are saying. Is this human language? That's your son!" The village chief could no longer bear it and started to curse at Old Mrs. Zhao.

Seeing that the fire could not burn him, Chen Dongren hurriedly pulled Sizhu and asked him to take him to find Taoer and Meier.

"Village chief, you are in charge of everything, but you have no right to interfere in my own family affairs. That baby came out of my belly, so I can do whatever I want with it!" Old Mrs. Chen looked indifferent.

The village chief's nose was almost crooked with anger, this ignorant woman!

"Zhao Tiansheng! Do you think so too?"

Knowing that the old woman couldn't make sense, the village chief turned his attention to Old Man Zhao.

"I...I...our family in the village naturally has to listen to the village chief, but this is also a family matter, I'm afraid the village chief can't do anything about it."

Old man Zhao was timid, but the words he said were as sound as a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.

"Okay, okay." The village chief was almost laughing out of anger.

"Since you said I have no say in your family affairs, I won't talk about your family affairs. I will now tell you about how you broke into their home, beat them up, and smashed the house."

"Isn't this still our own family matter?" Old Mrs. Zhao sneered.

"Hey~ You are wrong. Duan Minniang is the current head of this family. This is not your family. You insisted on separating them at the beginning.

"Last time the village was hit by a disaster, the county asked us to re-count the land deeds and land titles of each household, and we found that the four daughters of Duan Min's family did not have household certificates. At that time, the police came to your house to ask about it. It was you who said that you had separated, so the police counted them and gave them separate households. Now you are completely two families."

"Humph! Who are you trying to scare? Duan Minniang is just a woman. How can she be the head of the household?" Old Mrs. Zhao still didn't believe it.

"Ignorant woman! Daye has allowed women to set up their own households ten years ago." The village chief waved his sleeves and didn't bother to look at the unreasonable old lady Zhao.

what?

"impossible!"

"Aunt, what do you know when you spend all your time in the village? The village chief is right. Ten years ago, a decree was issued to allow women to set up their own households. Now even households with only female members are allowed." said a man who had received a few years of education.

Those doing business outside also echoed: "That's right, nowadays there are many women who have set up their own businesses, and there are also many women doing business on the street."

"That's right. Your family is lazy and gluttonous. No one in school or running a business outside, so naturally you don't know the world today."

This is really heartbreaking.

Old Mrs. Zhao almost collapsed to the ground.

It's over! It's all over!

The reason why they drove the mother and the other four out was that they thought the three girls were too young to do any work and would just eat for free if they stayed at home. They thought they would give some of the land they didn't like to Duan Minniang and let her raise the three girls. When the time came for them to get married, they would come out in the name of grandparents to get the betrothal gifts and kick Duan Minniang out completely.

Because they still believe that women cannot set up their own households, they are not worried about any mistakes. They also think that Duan Min's three daughters are still firmly under their control, and they have come to make trouble many times over the years.

Unexpectedly, due to the flood in Niulan River, people had already moved out.

Oh my God!

The Zhao family was speechless for a moment.

After being stunned for a long while, Mrs. Zhao came to her senses and said, "Humph! So what? Even if the family is divided, I am still their grandmother and I can still beat and scold them. There can't be a law that says a grandmother can't beat her granddaughter!"

"You..." The village chief was almost fainted by her shameless appearance.

But even though Old Mrs. Zhao was a bad person, what she said was true. Even if the matter was brought to the county government, the Zhao family would not be punished for beating them.

Seeing that the village chief didn't say anything, Old Mrs. Zhao became proud again.

"Village Chief, this is true, isn't it? Haven't you taught your grandchildren a lesson?"

"Is there anyone who teaches like you?" Old Madam Chen was not indulging her. "Look at Tao'er and Mei'er. Do they have any good flesh left on them now?"

"How badly did they get beaten? They are so young and yet they know how to pretend to be sick. If they have the guts, let them go to the county government office and sue me! I wonder if they dare to take off their clothes in public and let the county magistrate see where I beat them."

Old Mrs. Zhao was very proud. She had just deliberately targeted the places that could not be exposed. She didn't believe that these damn girls would dare to take off their clothes in public.

"You! You are shameless! Hou Xiaoyan, you are not worthy of being a human being!" Old Mrs. Chen was so angry that she cursed.

Old Mrs. Zhao didn't care about her at all. She just stood there calmly, looking like "what can you do to me?"

"Okay, Tao'er and the others are your granddaughters, then what about my two grandsons?" Old Master Chen asked, pointing at Dashu and Erhe.

He finally realized that it was impossible to reason with the Zhao family.

Only then did everyone notice the big tree and two rivers standing nearby.

Although they were grown men, how could they get away with it at the hands of two strong men, Zhao Yuanxi and Zhao Yuannan? They were in as miserable a state as possible.

His clothes were torn to tatters, his hair was torn like a mess, and his face was covered with bruises.

"They rushed in and beat us, otherwise would we fight them?" Zhao Yuanxi said nonchalantly.

"That's right, they asked for it." Old Mrs. Zhao looked at Dashu and Erhe with disdain.

Old Master Chen ignored them and turned to the villagers who were watching outside: "Fellow villagers, you came before us just now, you should have seen what happened clearly. I would like to ask you to help me recall whether they were the first to hit my two boys or our boys?"

"It was the Zhao family who took action first!" Wang Bixia stood up. She was one of the first wave of people to arrive and saw everything clearly.

"Wang Bixia, it's you again!" Old Mrs. Zhao wanted to tear Wang Bixia's mouth apart.

"What's the matter? I'm just telling the truth. Everyone saw it, right?"

Wang Bixia ignored Old Lady Zhao. At the beginning, when Old Lady Zhao scolded her, she didn't feel satisfied when she talked back. Now that she had another chance, how could she not add insult to injury?

In fact, Zhao Yuanxi didn't lie.

Erhe rushed in and saw Taoer and Meier being beaten. He lost all his rationality and rushed forward to rescue his two sisters. Zhao Yuanxi and Zhao Yuannan did not take action and went forward to stop them. However, Erhe's fist had already hit them in the face, so they started fighting.

But she didn't care who started it first. She only knew that the Zhao family was too hateful and she had to teach them a lesson.

Seeing Wang Bixia being so sure, the people who had just witnessed the process began to doubt their memories. Could it be that it was really the Zhao family who took action first?

Soon everyone started blaming the two Zhao brothers.

Zhao Yuanxi and Zhao Yuannan didn't expect that they would be wrongly accused after being scoundrels in the village for so many years. They were so angry that they wanted to hit Wang Bixia, but were stopped by the villagers.

Now the charge of assault has been completely confirmed.
