Never mind whether what He Tianwa’s wife said is true or not, the fact remains that He Jinwa, a re junior, shouldn’t have used such repulsive words to curse people.
What does it an to call soone a cheap woman in need of a man? Is that sothing a decent family’s child would say?
He Niu, seeing Village Chief He scolding He Jinwa, endured the pain from her beating and said, "Village chief, Jinwa is still young and didn’t an it. We’ll teach him gradually, please don’t be angry, sir."
He Niu had three sons and two daughters with Fourth Son He, but two sons didn’t survive and died young, the two daughters were sold for money, leaving only He Jinwa, who was spoiled rotten. Fearing that Village Chief He might punish him in anger, she hurriedly ca forward to diate.
Village Chief He spat at her, "Peh, you can’t even teach yourselves, and you think you can teach He Jinwa well?"
Originally, the village chief felt a bit sorry for He Jinwa being implicated by his parents, but now he couldn’t wait to beat He Jinwa to death and stopped wasting words with them. He imdiately said to He Dacang, "Bring the clan registry, remove Fourth Son He’s family from the clan."
"Yes." He Dacang imdiately went to get the registry. Fourth Son He’s wife went crazy when she saw this, throwing herself forward and pleading, "We can’t be expelled, if we’re out of the clan, how can our family live?"
"How to live?" He Dacang evaded Fourth Son He’s wife’s grasp, sneering, "Naturally you’d go back to your mother’s family, your whole family shares the sa rotten stench, you all belong together."
Better hurry back to Baihe Town, and stop plaguing Da Feng Village. We’ve had enough for how many years now, seriously enough.
Fourth Son He’s wife was stunned; she didn’t expect soone as timid as He Dacang to say such things.
He Jinseng said, "Dad, don’t waste ti talking to them, let’s expel them from the clan quickly."
Grandfather has been busy all day and night; only after driving Fourth Son He’s family away can his old self finally rest.
"He Jinseng, you son of a bitch, to hell with you, passing the student exam and now putting on airs with my mom, you really want a beating." He Jinwa flew into a rage, spewing profanities, and charged over to fight He Jinseng.
Influenced by Gu Jin’an, He Jinseng had learned so moves over the years, squatting low, then punching He Jinseng in the side, making him stumble back a few steps.
He Jinwa looked at him in shock, "You effeminate Immortal Lord, you dare to hit ?"
Effeminate? Immortal Lord?
Village Chief He was so shocked hearing these words that he almost spat blood, pointing at He Jinwa, he said, "Grab him and give that old man a good beating!"
On hearing that, He Dayuan and the others imdiately stepped forward to pin He Jinwa down, raising sticks and beating him, over a dozen blows, leaving He Jinwa bruised and battered.
But whether it was family realizing their doom or if he truly was out of control, He Jinwa not only showed no remorse but instead hurled insults at He Jinseng, using phrases like effeminate, not a man, Immortal Lord, selling himself to serve n, all very unpleasant.
Village Chief He was so furious he nearly passed out, thankfully he had taken dicine earlier; otherwise, he would have died on the spot from anger.
He Dayuan, quick to act, grabbed a rough sackcloth nearby, rolled it into a ball, and stuffed it into He Jinwa’s mouth to stop him from cursing anymore.
Then he personally took action, beating He Jinwa until he was half-dead before stopping.
Fourth Son He’s wife saw this and cried her heart out, shouting, "Doctor Dai, hurry and see to my Jinwa, he’s my only child, nothing can happen to him."
He still needs to be there to look after them in their old age.
He Dayuan sneered, "With soone like He Jinwa, even if he doesn’t die, he’d be a nace, why save him."
After saying that, he ca before Village Chief He and said, "Village Chief, calm yourself, that wretched boy can no longer curse anyone."
Village Chief He nodded and looked at He Dacang.
Fourth Son He was already beaten half to death, but seeing his family was about to be expelled, he imdiately threatened, "Stop it, if you dare expel my family, I, Fourth Son He, won’t spare you in death!"
He looked at the present He Family people and chuckled, "You all have daughters at ho; if you push to desperation, I’ll just sell your daughters to strangers or bring in so thugs to tarnish their purity, leaving them ashad for life!"
Village Chief He was so angry on hearing this he was trembling, not expecting Fourth Son He to say such things, "Beast, you beast!"
"Grandfather, don’t be angry." He Jinseng comforted Village Chief He, then looked at Fourth Son He and said, "Fourth Son He, don’t take undue advantage of the situation, you and your wife listened to He Daqian and plotted against Gu Jin’an using Mrs. Niu, and behind He Daqian there’s also a bunch of mountain bandits, do you know if this matter is taken seriously, your whole family would be accomplices, it’s colluding with mountain bandits!"
"Colluding with mountain bandits is a serious cri, He Daqian and his wife are already in jail, if you want to join them, we can send you to the governnt office right now."
He Jinseng’s words made Fourth Son He’s family turn pale.
Fourth Son He said, "You, you stop slandering us, we just wanted Niu Qiao’er and her sister to plot against Gu Jin’an, how did it beco being accomplices with mountain bandits?"
This is a capital cri.
He Jinseng, having learned quite a bit from Gu Jin’an these years, said, "Tell that to Lord County Magistrate."
Then he looked towards He Dacang and said, "Dad, have them take Fourth Son He’s family to the governnt office..."
"We’ll go, we’ll go right away, don’t send us to the governnt office!" Fourth Son He and his wife were scared, crying and begging.
Village Chief He laughed coldly, looking at them with disgust in his heart, "Rember, you all helped He Daqian, the matter of colluding with mountain bandits will be a lifelong leverage against you, after leaving Da Feng Village it’s best to behave, if you dare co back for revenge, I’ll send you to the governnt office, and have them behead you!"
Fourth Son He’s wife hurriedly said, "We dare not, we dare not, after leaving Da Feng Village we’ll live honestly, no more evil deeds."
He Dacang had already crossed out Fourth Son He’s family na from the registry, "Dad, it’s done. After paying silver to buy their house and land, they can be kicked out."
According to the rules, the clan would buy the expelled person’s house and land, letting them get money to live elsewhere and not pushing them to the brink, truly very righteous.
Fourth Son He was already scared, but for the sake of so silver, he still struggled to say, "Thirty taels... without thirty taels, we won’t sell..."
"Peh, your broken house and land dare to fetch thirty taels, you must be crazy." He Laoguo spat on Fourth Son He and said, "Twenty taels, my family will buy it; take it or leave it."
He Laoguo’s family had nurous descendants, and in recent years they had saved so money and wanted to buy so land to build houses, so that their grandsons would have a place to marry.
Village Chief He said, "Fourth Son He, don’t ask for too much, just twenty taels, that’s already generous to your family."
Then, after intimidating Fourth Son He, he inquired where the house deeds and land deeds were hidden, and He Dacang took people to search for them in his house, returning with them monts later.
