Ye Ziâan was very smart. He knew that since he couldnât kick everyone out at once, he couldnât break things off completely with the Ye family. There were only distant relatives in his family, no direct kin, so if he got into trouble in the future, none of them would help him. But, Ms. Hua Junior was different with her own family supporting her. If she were pushed to desperation, he alone would not be able to deal with the Hua Familyâs ruffians. Being able to recover some of his fatherâs belongings and kick out Ye Ziping today was already a good result. He would take things slowly when he got the chance in the future. In any case, he would not let Ms. Hua Junior off easily.
"No, youâre a cursed person. How can you have anything to do with Ye Familyâs belongings? When they fall into your hands, theyâll be cursed. I am your fatherâs wife, so his possessions should be guarded by me!" Ms. Hua Junior was anxious when she heard Ye Ziâan still wanted the Ye Familyâs belongings. This was unacceptable, as those lands and houses belonged to her son, why should they belong to this bastard?
"Holy crap!" Yang Chuxia couldnât help but curse, "Ms. Hua Junior, do you have any shame? Are all the women in the Hua family shameless?" Yang Chuxia couldnât hold it in any longer, and her mouth started babbling, "Iâve never met someone so shameless as you are. Those lands and houses were left by Brother Anâs father for Brother An. What right do your two burden kids have to inherit them? Damn, not to mention your burdens, just you, a widow, do you have the nerve to say others bring bad luck? You yourself took the lives of two men. How dare you say others bring bad luck? Iâm yet to see someone more cursed than you. Ye familyâs things, in your hands, are cursed. Donât make any excuses, you just want to claim those things for your son, right? In fact, I now feel that your sonâs theft charge doesnât even compare to your cursed title."
After saying this, she turned to Ye Ziâan and blinked, "Just report it to the officials. Thereâs no need for compensation or trying to drive someone out of the village. Once you report it, theyâll all be arrested. When that happens, wonât those lands and houses still be yours? As for the reputation of passing the imperial exam, when theyâre all in jail, whether itâs a good or bad reputation, isnât it all up to you to say?"
Hearing Yang Chuxiaâs words, Ms. Hua Junior was suddenly stunned.
Ye Ziâan was also stunned for a moment, before nodding in agreement, "Youâre right. Letâs file a lawsuit with the authorities, then."
Land Officer Yang exclaimed, "Brother An, think it through. Even if you donât consider the reputation, Ms. Hua Junior is still your stepmother, and Ziping is like your older brother. Filing a lawsuit against them would be like suing your elders, and youâll need to endure 30 heavy blows first."
Hearing this, Yang Chuxia rolled her eyes and thought to herself, âGrandpa Land Officer, couldnât you just pretend not to know these rules? They just wanted to scare Ms. Hua Junior, not really sue her.â
"Itâs fine, Grandpa Land Officer. I can withstand the 30 blows," Ye Ziâan said calmly. After all, he was a man and had some physical strength. Just because he had bad legs didnât mean his body was weak; he could bear this pain.
Upon hearing Land Officer Yangâs words, Ms. Hua Junior was initially quite pleased, not believing Ye Ziâan would actually sue. Those 30 heavy blows werenât easy for an ordinary person to endure.
But who would have thought that Ye Ziâan would actually agree, like it was no big deal!
Ms. Hua Juniorâs eyes widened, and she cried and cursed, "Ye Ziâan, you little bastard, youâre just unfilial, even suing your own brother!"
