Chapter 274 Who allowed you to abuse lynching?
The next day, when Ruan Qingqing passed by the martial arts training ground after breakfast, she found that there was a large group of children on the ground, and there were a lot more of them than yesterday.
Could it be that all the children of Bale have come to the City Lord’s Mansion?
She suppressed her doubts and went out.
Because she was thinking about something, she did not mount the horse as soon as she went out, but walked quietly on the road holding the reins. Yue Linlang also followed quietly behind holding the horse.
"Hello, City Lord!"
"Hello, City Lord!"
"Hello, City Lord!"
She met several groups of people greeting her, and Ruan Qingqing responded with a smile and a nod.
"Caihua, you lazy woman! You smashed two plates when I asked you to cook breakfast. Do you want to die?"
Ruan Qingqing heard such a sarcastic curse when she passed a low courtyard. She just frowned in displeasure when she heard a tired voice explaining.
"Mom, I was so tired from pumping water in the fields yesterday that I hadn't recovered this morning. I accidentally slipped while carrying a plate and fell. I didn't mean to."
"What do you mean by too tired from pumping water? These days there is a water shortage in the fields. Every household is pumping water. Why are you the only one who is too tired? You smash the plates when you are asked to make breakfast. Do you still want an old woman like me to serve you? If I had known you were such a black-hearted woman, I should not have let Dashan marry you! You are really a jinx! A loser in the family!" The wife's voice came again.
"Mother, you should have some conscience when you say these things! What do you mean I want you to serve me? How can I be a jinx? Other families pump water, but they use oxen or donkeys to pull and push the water. At worst, it is the men in the family who pump water.
I am a woman who has been pushing the waterwheel all day, cooking and boiling water when I come back. I am so tired that I can't even lift my clothes in the morning, and my hands are shaking when I hold anything. But I still have to get up and make breakfast? Not only do you not help me, but you also scold me for being lazy and asking me to serve you. I am a junior and I won't argue with you. But why do I have to scold my entire family in my mother's family even though I have done all the work at home and outside? "
"You...you! Are you a rebel? How dare you talk back to me! Dashan, do you want to control your rebellious wife?"
"You bitch, what's wrong with my mother scolding you? Why do you have to go and irritate me?"
"Dashan, you damned bastard, you hit me without asking why? I'll fight you!"
"Dashan, kick her hard! This black-hearted woman is rebellious! If you don't beat her for three days, she will tear down the roof! Yes! Beat her hard! If you don't beat her, she will be scared. She doesn't know who is her boss! Yes! Beat her hard! This year will be a good harvest. At worst, if you beat her to death, I will use the food to buy you a younger woman!"
When Ruan Qingqing heard this, she could no longer suppress the anger in her heart.
She kicked open the fence door in the yard.
"Who! Who the hell comes to my house and makes trouble!" A short and fat man covered in dark clothes rushed out of the house.
Yue Linlang kicked him away. "Who gave you the courage to insult the city lord?"
"City... City Lord, my son didn't mean it." A plump white woman in her forties came out of the house immediately after hearing the noise, and knelt down in front of Ruan Qingqing, kowtowing repeatedly, "Please forgive my son for once, City Lord!"
Ruan Qingqing didn't bother to pay attention to her and walked straight into the room they came out of.
In the dark and cramped room, Ruan Qingqing took a long time to find the cauliflower curled up in a dark corner.
"Cauliflower, Cauliflower~" When Ruan Qingqing bent down and tried to wake her up, she found that there was no movement at all.
"Master, she was probably knocked unconscious." Yue Linlang reminded.
Ruan Qingqing gently picked her up and said, "Linlang, let's go to the clinic!"
"Master, let me do it!" Yue Linlang stretched out her hand.
"It's okay. It's more important to go to the clinic first. Go and pick up the two beastly mother and son outside!" After giving this order, Ruan Qingqing led people to the clinic.
"What are you going to do? We are teaching our daughter-in-law a lesson and we haven't broken any law. Why are you taking us away?" Caihua's mother-in-law said unwillingly.
"The people of Bale are all the city lord's subjects. Who allowed you to abuse lynching? Are you leaving or not?"
Yue Linlang quickly pulled out the sword from her waist and pointed it at her throat.
"Don't get excited, sir. I'll just go with you!" Caihua's mother-in-law immediately gave in.
"Take your son with you!" Yue Linlang said sternly.
"Okay! Take it with you!"
As soon as they left, the neighbors came out one after another and pointed at the mother and son.
"This Wang Po and her son are really worthless! Caihua is the one who takes care of everything at home and outside, and she often beats or scolds Caihua. Caihua is also a fool and usually keeps silent!"
"If it weren't for Mrs. Wang scolding her family, Caihua wouldn't have known how to resist!"
"What's the point of her resisting? No matter how strong a woman is, she is naturally not as strong as a man. Didn't you see how the city lord just carried her out? Her whole body was either bruised and bloody from being beaten. Alas, I don't even know if she can survive!"
"What a sin! Every time we work in the fields, Dashan always feels uncomfortable here and there and stands aside to rest. Isn't it Caihua who does most of the work? That old woman Wang goes from house to house every day and never does any housework. Even so, she is still not satisfied and instigates Dashan to beat and scold Caihua every day!"
"Yes! Look at us country women, who are as plump and white as Mrs. Wang? We really don't know how to appreciate the good life!"
Someone curled his lips and said, "If Mrs. Wang knew how to cherish, it would be like the sun rising from the west! Poor cauliflower!"
"I didn't expect the city lord would take care of this matter! I just don't know how the city lord will punish them?" someone asked curiously.
"Didn't you hear what Lord Yue next to the city lord said just now? The people in Bale are all the city lord's subjects. Who allowed you to abuse lynching?"
Someone immediately responded, "Doesn't that mean we can't punish our children too harshly in the future? What if the city lord finds out about this? We'll be punished too."
Someone sneered, "Who would kill a child? They are all flesh and blood that fell from our bellies, who would be willing to do that?"
Someone suddenly interrupted, "If it was a girl, the men at home would not spare any effort!"
Everyone fell into a strange silence.
"But this is a good thing. It is said that being a wife is hard. With the city lord's intervention, men in the family will be more cautious about beating their wives in the future."
"That's right! Some men pretend to be grandsons outside, but beat their wives and children to death at home. Such people should learn a lesson!"
"How will the city lord punish them? Why don't we go and take a look?"
"I almost finished pumping water from my field yesterday. I had nothing else to do so I went to take a look. I'll come back and show you how to do it."
“I don’t have much to do at home, so I’ll go and listen too!
