Chapter 82: Get Together

Liu Cuifang was furious when she heard Li Sanru’s words. The Lu family was counting on Lu Cheng to bring them benefits, but Li Sanru wanted to ruin Lu Cheng. How could she allow that? So Liu Cuifang pointed at Li Sanru and shouted, “You black-hearted stepmother, this is our Lu family’s territory, you have no place to speak here. You want to ruin my son’s future, no way…” Lu Zhendong also pointed at Lin Fugui and cursed, “Lin Fugui, you bastard, you’ve always lost to me in fights since you were a kid.

 I guess you’re itching for a beating again…” Then he swung his fist at Lin Fugui. Li Xiuyin saw her father-in-law attacking, rushed forward, grabbed Li Sanru’s hair, and pulled her back forcefully. Liu Cuifang went in for a double-handed attack, slapping her twice hard, then scratched her face twice. Seeing her mother being beaten, Lin Wan rushed forward to help, and Wang Lijuan couldn’t hold back anymore, rushed forward and knocked Lin Wan to the ground. Li Xiuyin let go of Li Sanru’s hair, then kicked Lin Wan twice, directly kicking her into the mud pit, then squeezed Lin Wan’s arm hard, each squeeze made Lin Wan scream. Li Xiuyin was really venting her anger this time.

She had suffered countless losses under Lin Yuexi, and her heart was filled with resentment. Finally, she had a chance to vent her anger, and she naturally wanted to let it all out. Seeing the fight break out, and his most powerful brother was knocked down by the three Lu brothers, Lin Shengli, with his small frame, was no match for the Lu family. He simply slipped away while no one was paying attention.

Lin Yuexi looked at the chaotic scene, a little dazed. She hadn’t even made a move yet, how did the fight break out? Should she go up and knock down a few more? While Lin Yuexi was thinking, Li, the village chief, came over after receiving the message from Zhao Gang. He shouted loudly, “Stop it all…” Everyone stopped their actions when they heard the village chief’s shout, but the anger in their eyes remained undiminished, and the atmosphere was tense. Lu Zhendong’s fist was still raised in the air, he glared fiercely at Lin Fugui, with a hint of unwillingness on his face, but he dared not disobey the village chief’s order, so he slowly lowered his hand.

Li Xiuyin stopped squeezing Lin Wan, but she was still cursing under her breath. She was venting all her anger on Lin Wan, treating her as Lin Yuexi! The village chief frowned, scanning the chaotic scene, his eyes revealing authority and dissatisfaction. “What are you doing? What year is it now? You’re still fighting in a group!” His voice was low and powerful, echoing in the air.

 Liu Cuifang pouted, her face full of dissatisfaction, “Village chief, you don’t know, Li Sanru and Lin Fugui are up to no good, they want to harm our Lu Cheng, how can we just watch?” The village chief snorted coldly, “What can’t be discussed properly? You have to resort to violence? He finished his sentence, then looked at the miserable state of the Lin family, and couldn’t help but gasp.

Except for Lin Shengli who ran away, the other four Lin family members were not spared. Lin Fugui lay on the ground, like a broken sack, lifeless. His eyes were bruised and swollen, almost unable to open, his lips were cracked, blood slowly flowed down his mouth, staining a small patch of his clothes red. His clothes were torn to shreds, revealing multiple bruises and abrasions on his skin, those scars were deep and shallow, making him look terrifying. Li Sanru sat slumped on the side, her hair like a messy pile of grass, scattered untidily on her face and shoulders.

 Her face, which was once passable, was now filled with terror, her cheeks were swollen high, and the clear finger marks were like branding, shocking to the eye. Her eyes were filled with anger and helplessness, tears welled up in her eyes, but she forgot to shed them because of the excessive shock. Lin Dashan huddled in a corner, his tall figure now seemed so small and fragile.

His face was covered in bruises and blood, one eye was swollen almost shut, only a slit could reveal a trace of fear. His nose was also bleeding, blood stained his upper lip and chin. His clothes were torn in several large holes, revealing the bruises on his muscles, which were the “masterpieces” of the three Lu brothers’ fists and feet.

 Lin Wan struggled in the mud pit, mud covered her whole body, her originally neat clothes became filthy. Her forehead was broken, blood mixed with mud slid down her cheeks, like a series of hideous bloodstains.

Her arms were bruised and purple, the “masterpiece” of Li Xiuyin’s madness. The village chief looked at this scene, his brows furrowed into a “川” shape, his heart filled with helplessness and anger. He took a deep breath and said loudly, “How did this happen?” He sighed in frustration! How could he handle this. Fortunately, at this moment, Zhao, the secretary of the commune, came with Chen Dapeng, the village chief of Taohua Village. When they saw this scene, they couldn’t help but look shocked.

Zhao, the secretary, his face darkened, his eyes swept over the crowd sternly, and he said loudly, “What’s going on? You’re actually fighting in broad daylight, do you have any sense of law?” His voice echoed in the air, carrying an unquestionable authority, instantly silencing the crowd who were still whispering. Chen, the village chief, quickly walked to Lin Fugui’s side, carefully examined his injuries, and frowned. “Chen Fugui, Chen Fugui, if you weren’t crazy for money, you wouldn’t have suffered this loss! Go to the village clinic and let your daughter take a look at you, don’t lose your life!”

Then he called a villager nearby to help lift Lin Fugui to the village clinic. Lin Yuexi was helpless, she was about to entrust the two babies to Lin Lijuan and go to the clinic herself. But Li Sanru, seeing someone coming to help, was like grabbing a lifeline. She “plop” knelt in front of Zhao, the secretary, and cried, “Secretary Zhao, you have to do justice for us! The Lu family, relying on their numbers, beat us up like this, how can we live?” Her cry was shrill, tears mixed with the dust on her face, making her look even more miserable.

 Zhao, the secretary, said with a solemn expression, “Li Sanru, don’t make a fuss, go to the clinic and get your wounds treated before you say anything.” Then he turned to the Lu family, his eyes full of reproach, “Lu family, what kind of grievances can’t be resolved properly, you have to use violence? This is a serious violation of the village rules and regulations!” Liu Cuifang wanted to say a few words, but under the authority of Zhao, the secretary, her voice became hesitant, “Secretary Zhao, they were the ones who came to make trouble first, we were forced to…”

Zhao, the secretary, impatiently interrupted her, “Enough! No matter what, beating people is wrong. Now, first take care of the injured, the rest of you come back to the village committee with me, and tell me the whole story.”
