151 Break Their Legs
The head of the people was an old lady with gray hair, sharp eyes, and a domineering aura that she got from her family.
A group of yard guards followed her.
“Mom!” When Madam Zhou saw the old lady, her eyes immediately turned red, and she called out to her.
Mrs. Hu quickly walked over and held Madam Zhou’s hand. “Where is Bingyu? How is he?”
Madam Zhou sobbed and said, “He is fine. I have to thank Mrs. Xie for helping me. I almost thought my husband would…”
“Where is he? Let me see.” Mrs. Hu was very calm and did not look at the others. Then, after a pause, she said to the people she brought, “Guard the door, and don’t let anyone out for the time being.”
With that, Mrs. Hu went into the room.
Zhao Chuchu looked at Old Madam Ma, who was already shaking, took out the sunflower seeds, and started eating.
The yard was very quiet, which made the sound of eating sunflower seeds particularly loud.
Zhao Chuchu didn’t care and even asked Zhao Meilan if she wanted some.
Zhao Meilan was not interested in eating sunflower seeds.
Mrs. Hu didn’t look kind, and Zhao Meilan was worried that Mrs. Hu wanted to pick a quarrel with them.
Old Madam Ma summoned up her courage and turned to leave.
As a result, a yard guard of the Hu family stopped her. “Sorry, you can’t leave here for the time being.”
“This is my eldest son’s house. I can go wherever I want. Why did you stop me?” Old Madam Ma stared at the guard.
The yard guard smiled coldly and said, “I would advise you to be obedient. My men have always been fierce. If you are not afraid of death, then do whatever you want.”
Old Madam Ma was stunned when she heard his words.
Madam Zhu had a bad feeling, and her face turned pale.
Mrs. Hu soon came out with Madam Zhou.
Mrs. Hu stood at the door of the main room. She did not seem angry but looked really domineering, as usual.
Mrs. Hu looked at Old Madam Ma and said, “Sis, I want you to explain this.”
Old Madam Ma was frightened when she saw Mrs. Hu’s posture.
She didn’t expect the Hu family to come so soon.
“I don’t know what you are talking about. This matter has nothing to do with us. The reason your son bumped into the well edge was your daughter-in-law’s fault. We were framed!” Old Madam Ma dared not look at Mrs. Hu, but she was still full of lies.
“Sis, although we haven’t seen each other much before, your daughter-in-law’s heart is evil, and she might have some other vicious methods. Therefore, I suggest you discipline your daughter-in-law properly. If she makes any jokes, you will lose face.”
Madam Zhou’s face was livid.
But her mother-in-law was here, and she didn’t try to explain anything.
Zhao Chuchu felt that if Zhao Meilan could marry into the Hu family, it would be awesome.
At present, Mrs. Hu is much better than Old Madam Ma.
“So are you saying that my daughter-in-law wants to kill my son?”
“Yes, that’s right! Maybe you scolded her, and she harbored a grudge and took revenge on your son. I have to tell you that such a restless bitch should not be tolerated!”
“You are right. Bitches should not be tolerated.”
Mrs. Hu seemed to be calm.
“Yard guards!”
Old Madam Ma was relieved and looked at Madam Zhou with some glee.
However, Madam Zhu was pale and trembling.
She had a good relationship with Madam Zhou. Naturally, she knew that Mrs. Hu never scolded Madam Zhou. Even though Hu Yiming became a fool, Mrs. Hu never forced Madam Zhou to have another child.
Madam Zhu wanted to warn Old Madam Ma, but she heard Mrs. Hu say, “Hold down the two women of the Zhao family and beat them hard until they tell me the whole thing!”
Old Madam Ma was shocked.
She immediately realized that Mrs. Hu wanted to deal with them, so she pushed Madam Zhu forward, turned around, and tried to run.
But she was no match for those yard guards.
She was dragged back without even having taken a few steps.
At the same time, Zhao Guiqing and his brothers were also brought together.
The people brought by Mrs. Hu were divided into two groups. One group followed her, and the other went to Zhao You’s house.
Zhao Guiqing and his brothers were pushed to the ground and cried out in pain.
“What are you doing? Are you ignoring the law?” Zhao Guiqing, the beloved son of Old Madam Ma, cried out sharply.
Mrs. Hu sneered and said, “You almost killed my son. Were you ignoring the law? Beat them! Break their legs!”
“Yes.”
The yard guards came forward to hold them down and broke their legs in front of the people in Lengshui Village.
Their shrill screams rang through the sky.
The head of the Zhao clan saw this, and his face was trembling. He might have fallen to the ground if he had not been on crutches.
Finally, Niu Tongsheng stopped Mrs. Hu and said, “Mrs. Hu, we can work this out in some other way, right? It would be serious if we killed them. You are the victim, and you can let the local authorities handle this.”
The implication was that they should not make people die in Lengshui Village. He did not care about other things.
Mrs. Hu gave the village head a cold look.
Then she raised her hand to stop the yard guards.
Old Madam Ma was lying on the ground, disheveled, crying non-stop.
Mrs. Hu said that she wanted to break their legs, which was much more ruthless than Zhao Chuchu.
Mrs. Hu said with a cold face, “I only have one son and one grandson, and I will never allow anyone to humiliate them or harm them! Don’t think this is over. My son nearly lost his life here, and I want you all to taste this as well. Come on, tie them up, and take them to the county office later.”
When Old Madam Ma heard this, she cried bitterly and begged for mercy. “I know I was wrong. Please let me go. I promise I will never do this again.”
Madam Zhu also begged Madam Zhou. “I really didn’t mean to do that. Since we have a good relationship, can you please let this matter go? After all, your husband is still alive. We will die if we get arrested.”
However, Madam Zhou was expressionless.
She could not sympathize with Madam Zhu.
If Zhao Chuchu were not there, she would have become a widow.
Had Madam Zhu ever considered their relationship?
Seeing that there was no way to beg for mercy, Old Madam Ma looked at Zhao Chuchu, who was still eating sunflower seeds, and begged her. “Chuchu, your surname was once Zhao. You used to call me Grandma. Please help me beg for mercy and ask them to let us go.”
Zhao Chuchu no longer wanted her sunflower seeds after she heard what Old Madam Ma had just said.
She was about to speak, but Xie Heng’s voice came from the door. “Chuchu has already broken up with the Zhao family. She now belongs to the Xie family. Why should she do that for you?”
Everyone looked at Xie Heng, who had just walked in.
Xie Heng went up to Zhao Chuchu and looked at the sunflower seed shells on the ground in front of her with a smile.
Xie Heng said to Zhao Chuchu, “Miss Kang has come to see you with her mother. So let’s go back.”
Zhao Chuchu was puzzled. Why did they come to Lengshui Village to look for her? She thought they would return to Guangqing Province when the situation got better.
“Okay.”
Zhao Chuchu got up and dusted the sunflower seed shells off her clothes.
“Meilan, take care of this later.”
After that, Zhao Chuchu and Xie Heng left together.
Seeing that Zhao Chuchu and Xie Heng were going to leave, the yard guards turned their heads to look at Mrs. Hu.
Mrs. Hu nodded, which meant that they could leave this place now.
Old Madam Ma shouted out loud, “Chuchu, don’t go! You are their savior. They will listen to what you say!”
