Ms.Lv of Hua Familyâs husband was the first to speak up, "What exactly happened?" Her husband was by no means a bad person; in fact, he was quite decent. However, he was a bit slow-witted and extremely hot-tempered. To put it bluntly, he was both foolish and hot-headed.
But he held upright values deep within himself.
At first, he had only heard Ms. Lv tell him that her younger sister had died, killed by the people of Yangshu Village. Upon hearing this, he couldnât just let it go.
He immediately wanted to go to Yangshu Village to make trouble, but he hadnât had the chance to go due to household matters still needing his attention.
Finally, when things at home had mostly been taken care of, he brought his siblings, children, and grandchildren along with him to Yangshu Village.
Upon arriving at the Yang Family, he didnât bother asking for any explanations. Instead, he instructed his sons and nephews to beat up Yang Daâan and Yang Xiaochuan first, since those two bastards couldnât even protect their own mother.
As for Old Yang, he didnât ask anyone to lay hands on him. However, the women he brought with him didnât have as strong moral values as their husbands. They had come with the hope of extorting a sum of money from the Yang Family. Consequently, while the men were beating up Yang Daâan and Yang Xiaochuan, the women and younger ones surrounded Old Yang, demanding compensation.
During the pushing and shoving, someone accidentally pushed Old Yang onto the ground, which was the scene Yang Chuxia walked into.
"Excuse me, sir, you donât even know what happened, and yet you come to my home seeking retribution?" Yang Chuxia glanced at him and pointed to Ms.Lv of Hua Family, "Didnât she go back to Hua Village and tell you all that Old Lady Hua was caught stealing and then thrown into the pond to drown?"
Hearing this, everyone from the Hua Family was dumbstruck.
They actually didnât know the ins and outs of the situation. Hua Village was quite far from Yangshu Village, and since this was a disgraceful affair, no one from Yangshu Village had been spreading the news. It was normal for them not to know.
"Why didnât you tell me about this?" After listening to Yang Chuxia, Ms.Lv of Hua Familyâs husband stepped forward and slapped her in the face, "You treacherous woman, you didnât tell me the whole story, making me lose face. Iâm going to kill you!"
Upon seeing the old man hitting Ms.Lv of Hua Family, Yang Chuxia immediately guessed that he must be her husband.
Then, she said, "Sir, why donât you hold your anger for a moment and let me finish the story? Itâll be worth it."
"Yang Chuxia, shut up!" Ms.Lv of Hua Family seemed to know what Yang Chuxia would say, so she immediately jumped out and spoke.
Yang Chuxia snorted coldly and said, "Shut up? The one thing I donât know how to do is to shut up."
Slapping the table, Yang Chuxia said, "Do you think I donât know why you brought so many people here? Youâre just jealous that I didnât give you those 900 wen, arenât you?"
As it turned out, Ms.Lv of Hua Family did indeed harbor resentment over this matter. In addition, she didnât dare admit to having a hand in Old Lady Huaâs death. So when she told her husband about Old Lady Hua, she hid the details, only mentioning the outcome.
But she had miscalculated that Yang Chuxia would interfere with the old houseâs affairs. Knowing that Yang Chuxia wouldnât get involved with Old Yangâs family, she dared to stir up trouble and take the opportunity to extort some money to make up for the lost 900 wen.
Yang Chuxia glanced at the old man from the Hua Family, pointing at Ms.Lv of Hua Family, she said, "Sir, you probably donât know this. Your good sisterâs capture for her affair was all thanks to this wife of yours. If it werenât for her leading the way, we wouldnât have found the place."
"Yang Chuxia..." Ms.Lv of Hua Family shouted and tried to charge forward, but she was held back by her husband.
