Chapter 201:
Almost choked, arguing back and forth, all for nothing!
Old Li Tou fell to the ground and pondered for a long time, his heart sinking to the bottom, and seeing Li Sanmao with an indifferent face not far away, he suddenly became very angry!
“San Mao, kneel down!”
The scolding voice stunned everyone in the yard!
“I’m telling you to kneel down, didn’t you hear?”
“Old Li, what are you doing this time? Li Lei’s farmland was taken, what does that have to do with San Mao?”
Li Zhengxin tried to persuade him!
“Village Chief, don’t interfere in today’s matter, this is the Old Li Family’s private affair!” Old Li Tou’s face was ashen, determined to vent his anger on Li Sanmao.
“But San Mao didn’t do anything wrong!”
“In front of parents, there is no right or wrong, I’m telling him to kneel, so he kneels, unless he’s not my son!”
Luo Zhi’er pulled Li Sanmao, Li Sanmao held her hand and still knelt down.
“You unfilial son, tell me, what have you been doing out these days? How did you let your second brother’s farmland be taken and allocated to others? How did you guard the home?”
Old Li Tou drew the leather whip placed outside the window and began whipping Li Sanmao!
One strike down and his back immediately split open…
The second strike left a bloody mark on his neck…
Li Sanmao gritted his teeth, not making a single sound!
“Old Li Tou, what are you doing? Stop it!” Li Zhengxin was angry, this wasn’t just dissatisfaction with him, venting on San Mao…
“Li Zhengxin, this is my family’s private affair, I, Li Depei, am disciplining my own son, it has nothing to do with outsiders!”
He raised the whip again, wishing to beat Li Sanmao to death! “Let you stay out of it! Let you disregard the life and death of family members…”
“Stop it!”
Luo Zhi’er angrily looked at Old Li Tou and loudly stopped him!
“What? I’m disciplining my own offspring, you this outsider woman still want to interfere? This whip doesn’t have eyes, if it hits you, you deserve it! Get out of the way!”
“Haha, beat him well, beat to death those disobedient stubborn offspring at home!” Li Gui said viciously, thinking of how his leg hurt in the prison cell and Li Sanmao wouldn’t give him clothes, quilt, or medicine, he hated him!
This family cannot have anyone not putting him Li Gui first!
“Wife, you go over… don’t interfere with husband!”
“Grandpa, don’t hit father!”
Miaomiao also cried out.
Li Daqiang timidly looked at Old Li Tou, then at Li Sanmao, and said: “Dad, San Mao knows he was wrong, don’t hit him anymore!”
Old Li Tou showed no mercy, continuing to viciously swing the whip at him…
“Damn! md, I’m telling you to stop! Can’t you hear?”
Luo Zhi’er stepped forward, blocking in the middle, standing motionless, coldly looking at Old Li Tou.
Old Li Tou was stunned, “What? You… you still want to eat me alive?”
“Hmph! Stone in the latrine pit, both smelly and hard!” Luo Zhi’er raised her hand and caught the whip he swung down, regardless of his life, pulled and made him stagger!
“You this fatty, you’re crazy, you… what are you doing?”
Old Li Tou was so angry his face turned ashen! Couldn’t even steady himself… “Don’t tell me, you still want to hit your father-in-law?”
Luo Zhi’er lifted her foot and kicked him, sending him tumbling to the edge of the garden plot, head landing in the dry manure pile where she pressed the scallions…
She raised the whip and viciously swung it toward his face…
“No, San Mao’s Wife…”
“Wife, stop!”
Li Zhengxin couldn’t believe it, Old Li Tou even more so! His eyes bulged wide, only fearing when he saw she was serious!
Although this old man was truly hateful, if she really beat him down, San Mao’s Wife’s reputation would be ruined…
Of course Xiao Zhou Shi and Chen Shi were delighted to see it happen, their eyes full of expectation!
They had long been dissatisfied with Old Li Tou, and moreover, it could put the blame on Luo Zhi’er!
Amid the exclamations, Li Xi’er still retained a shred of reason, put away the whip and said gravely,
“What?”
With a cold snort,
“Remember this! Whoever hits my man, I hit them! These two strikes today, I’ll note them down for now!”
She already planned to leave the Old Li Family, no longer relying on his whims, what was there to fear?
Li Zhengxin and the others were all scared by this rebellious Luo Zhi’er!
Too unbelievable, this Luo Zhi’er used to be sullen and wooden, now actually daring to hit her father-in-law for her man?
“You… you…”
Old Li Tou rolled on the ground, head buried in the manure pile, eyes wide open half a day unable to speak… “Hmph! So what about me? It’s not only you who knows how to hit people! Looks like I and San Mao have been too good to you all!”
Bullying the weak and fearing the strong, if not resisting, he forever thinks you can be bullied at will!
Luo Zhi’er turned to Li Zhengxin and said, “Village Chief Uncle, I beg you to withdraw the matter from before when San Mao pleaded with you!”
“What?”
Li Zhengxin looked incredulously at the serious-faced Luo Zhi’er before him!
“San Mao’s Wife, do you know what you’re saying?”
“Hmph! Of course I know, since my husband humbled himself, working hard to preserve the family’s farmland without thanks, and comes back to be brutally beaten, then why bother?”
Old Li Tou listened in a fog…
“Sigh, Old Li, you’re really not acting properly, you, sigh! Do you know how much effort San Mao and San Mao’s Wife put in to preserve the family’s farmland, and what about you all? Did nothing, and when he comes back you beat him, this beating isn’t your son, it’s breaking up the family!”
“What do you mean…” Old Li Tou deeply felt something was wrong.
“San Mao went to great lengths for the family’s farmland, working hard and humbly begging me, swearing oaths and guarantees! But when you all came back, look, just as we saw, Second Wife wants to sell the farmland, and you still think he didn’t do enough and want the village to take back Li Lei and his son’s farmland… Do you know, because you all went to prison, your family’s farmland was nearly all confiscated?”
“It was San Mao, the couple mediating in between, it was on their account that we spared you all. How much this hurts their hearts! Sigh!”
Li Zhengxin explained slowly, only then did Old Li Tou understand the whole story, seeing the expressionless Li Sanmao with the bloody mark on his neck, momentarily at a loss!
“San Mao… this… Dad isn’t…”
Wanted to say he didn’t mean it, but he did mean it…
Li Sanmao sneered coldly…
His heart had long died anyway!
Luo Zhi’er looked at him, inwardly cursing, this fool, his dad told him to kneel and he knelt, even beaten like this!
“There’s one more thing, I think San Mao’s Wife hasn’t told you yet, your Bill is the beloved dog of the Young Heir of Marquis Anle’s Estate, your Miaomiao received it from someone’s favor as a guard dog… If you still want to beat or kill Bill… you wouldn’t have enough with nine heads to compensate! Bah! Bah! Can’t even think it!”
“Every villager in our Zhao Li Village wouldn’t agree! You’re opposing us all! Hmph!”
Bill is now worshipped in the village like a divine beast, who dares to beat or kill it, all they want is its favor, to be looked upon highly by the Young Heir!
“What?” Xiao Zhou Shi couldn’t believe it, glanced at skinny like bean sprouts Liuliu, scared and still hiding behind the door whimpering and trembling…
Immediately furious beyond measure.
“Useless thing, both are little girls, others can catch the Young Heir’s eye, and you just know how to cry cry cry!”
