Li Changjiang held it in for a long ti, "What my wife said is true."
"Alright, you ungrateful thing, we raised you this big, helped you settle down, and you dare to speak to like this?"
Yu Guiying stepped forward. "Why are you not pretending now? Stop trying to sound so noble. Who in the village doesn’t know? My man has been working for the family since he was six or seven, feeding pigs and chickens. By the ti he was thirteen, he was already earning full work points.
How dare you say you raised him. In your eyes, it’s only your second son, who’s supposed to have prospects, that you truly raised.
No, it’s us who raised him. We’ve worked so much for the family, and you don’t even let my son and daughter eat? That’s what we earned, why shouldn’t we eat it?"
"Whoever it is, co out quickly, don’t delay my work, or I’ll take you to the police station with soon. I don’t have ti to hear you argue here."
Mrs. Li was scared to death and didn’t dare to get up.
At this mont, another ox cart ca over, with a few people sitting on it, and a few walking below.
"Those are Guiying’s family." Soone said.
The Yu Family’s eldest sister-in-law rushed over, pushed through the crowd, and stood in front of Mrs. Li. They might be from different generations, but they were about the sa age.
The Yu Family’s eldest sister-in-law rushed over, grabbed Mrs. Li by the hair, "What? You hit our daughter, and now you’re playing dead here?" As she spoke, she slapped Mrs. Li hard across the face.
No one ca to break it up, so Mrs. Li was beaten solidly.
"Alright, stop making trouble. The criminal, co over quickly."
Mrs. Li was no match for the Yu Family’s eldest sister-in-law. She was completely dazed by the beating and only reacted when the police spoke.
"You shrew, you dare hit soone in front of the police?"
"I’m hitting you. If you’re not happy, sue , I’m waiting for you."
This ti, Mrs. Li cald down, but now she couldn’t hide it anymore. So she bravely ca to the police.
"You’re the one who injured her, right? Village chief? I need to take this person away."
"Officer, she’s not an outsider. She’s my daughter-in-law."
"Even if she’s your biological daughter, it won’t work. Everyone is an independent individual. If you harm others, you will be punished."
"Officer, it’s not like that. Can’t a mother-in-law discipline her daughter-in-law?"
"Go back and explain it to ."
Mrs. Li was so scared she sat on the ground imdiately, "I won’t go, I won’t go."
"It’s not up to you, you’ve broken the law, get up quickly, or I’ll charge you with obstructing justice."
"Comrade, comrade, let’s discuss this. I heard that if the victim doesn’t pursue it, this matter can be settled privately, right?" Li Yungui hurriedly asked.
"And you are?"
"I’m the village chief of Li Family Village."
"In theory, yes, but her behavior was too egregious."
"Officer, let them discuss it. If our village people don’t press charges, I’ll personally take you back to the township by ox cart.
If Guiying doesn’t agree, then take her away, I won’t stop you."
Mrs. Li was even more frightened by these words and couldn’t get up from the ground.
Sitting on the ox cart were elders of the Yu Family. After hearing the Yu Family’s eldest sister-in-law ntion this matter yesterday, the elders had co to back their girl.
"Guiying, what are you thinking?" Yu Guiying recalled what her sister-in-law said yesterday and imdiately spoke, "I want justice. It’s a new society, even mother-in-laws can’t bully daughter-in-laws like this anymore."
Li Laoshu realized this situation couldn’t be resolved peacefully.
"Eldest family, I agree to the family division."
"You agree? Then let’s hear how you plan to divide it?"
"I’ll give you one hundred yuan. After your mother and I turn sixty, you’d provide for us."
"One hundred yuan? You’re really generous.
How much has my brother-in-law earned for you over the years? Just a hundred. You’re really shaless." The Yu Family’s eldest sister-in-law retorted imdiately.
Yu Guiying imdiately spoke, "My man earned full work points since he was thirteen. I’ve earned eight work points every day since marrying in, even when having children, I didn’t take off a month in a year. Neighbors all know our situation.
If you want to agree not to press charges, you can’t be short a penny from four hundred yuan."
"You wasteful woman, why don’t you rob?" Mrs. Li imdiately objected. She didn’t know the exact wealth of the family, but assud they didn’t have four hundred yuan.
The Yu Family’s eldest sister-in-law imdiately rushed over and flipped Mrs. Li, straddled her, and hit with both hands.
Seeing outsiders bullying his wife so blatantly in front of so many, Li Laoshu felt disgraced and imdiately tried to pull the Yu Family’s eldest sister-in-law off.
The Yu Family ca all as n, and now Li Laoshu had stirred up a hornet’s nest. The n from the Yu Family rushed over and surrounded Li Laoshu, giving him a thorough beating.
Li Changjiang couldn’t stand it anymore, but he didn’t dare do anything. He just rushed over, "Big brother, big brother, my dad wasn’t trying to hurt sister-in-law, just trying to break it up."
Who paid attention to him? The Yu Family did not stop.
The second child of the Li Family, Li Changlin, and his daughter Li Hongxia backed away far and didn’t dare co forward or speak.
"Stop. In my presence, you dare brawl like this?"
Only then did the Yu Family stop. But they didn’t leave the Li Family’s side.
So people in the village wanted to intervene, but Li Yungui stopped them, "The police are here. Don’t cause trouble."
Li Laoshu suffered a big loss today. Earlier, the four brothers from the Yu Family had acted. All were rural n in their pri, with strength.
"Village Chief Li, I think this can’t be settled privately anymore."
"Officer, let’s give them one more chance. Chaoyang, go fetch the officers so water."
"Then wait a while longer. If this still doesn’t resolve, I’ll take them back."
Li Yungui approached both families, "You heard that. This is your last chance. Li Laoshu, think it over, the officers have many tasks."
Li Laoshu was furious inside, his eldest was useless, not even stepping forward to help him, but still better than those two ingrates.
"Eldest family, if the family divides, will you not press charges?"
"Yes, but the division must satisfy ."
"Your satisfaction is giving you all the money, leaving with nothing?"
"No need to sound so pitiful; the family has eight hundred if not a thousand." Actually, Yu Guiying didn’t know the exact amount, she was just pushing him.
