Chapter 49: Crying and Beating Up the Hooligan

After dinner, Lin Shulan, remembering that Shen Chuning had hurt her hand and wouldn’t be able to wash herself easily at home, had Shen Chuning wash and wipe herself at their place before sending her back next door.

On her first night alone at home, Shen Chuning felt a little uncomfortable.

After coming out of the space, she felt the house was empty.

She tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep, thinking that in the afternoon, the man was still pestering her, asking her for five times tonight.

But now, the man was far away from her.

Shen Chuning was feeling lost when she suddenly heard a “thump” from outside the courtyard.

It sounded like something had fallen from the wall.

She immediately became alert.

Although her heart was flustered and her hands and feet were trembling, she forced herself to calm down.

Quickly getting out of bed, she picked up the large wooden stick she kept at the door for self-defense and gripped it tightly.

She hid behind the door of the main hall.

At this moment, three knocks came from outside the main hall door, along with three long and two short cuckoo calls.

Shen Chuning’s delicate eyebrows furrowed tightly.

This was the secret signal she had agreed upon with Chen Ziyun when her mind wasn’t clear.

She didn’t expect that Chen Ziyun would dare to come to her door so soon after Brother Yubai left.

Shen Chuning took a deep breath, mustered her courage, gripped the wooden stick in her hands, and decided to seize this opportunity to teach Chen Ziyun a lesson.

“Ningning, Ningning, open the door quickly! It’s your Brother Ziyun.”

Chen Ziyun outside was clearly impatient.

He didn’t even use the secret signal, knocking on the door and whispering, “Ningning, I’ve always known your feelings for me, I was cold to you before, just to test if you were sincere to me.

I know the misunderstanding last time might have hurt you, so you married Zhou Yubai, such a rough man.

Ningning, don’t worry, even if you’ve been married once, I won’t dislike you.”

Shen Chuning listened to his words through the door panel, feeling both angry and disgusted.

She was so angry that her eyes reddened and her eye sockets felt hot.

But this didn’t affect her plan to teach Chen Ziyun a lesson.

She suddenly opened the main hall door.

By the moonlight, she saw the dark figure outside the door and swung the stick, “I’ll beat you to death, you hooligan, I’ll beat you to death, you hooligan!”

“My husband is a soldier, he just left home to defend the country, and you came to my house, you beast, I’ll beat you to death!”

Shen Chuning was naturally a crybaby.

When she got excited, her tears couldn’t stop flowing, and her voice was choked with sobs.

But her hands didn’t stop at all, ignoring the pain from her sore palms, she swung her arms, using all her strength, hitting Chen Ziyun hard with the stick.

Chen Ziyun was very confident, thinking that Shen Chuning wouldn’t refuse him.

Now that Shen Chuning’s stick fell on him, he was completely caught off guard.

He ran around the courtyard with his head in his hands.

“Ningning, Ningning, don’t hit me! I’m Chen Ziyun, Chen Ziyun…”

The commotion in Shen Chuning’s courtyard quickly alarmed the Zhou family next door and the people in the educated youth point.

Lin Shulan and Father Zhou rushed into Shen Chuning’s courtyard first.

Hearing Shen Chuning crying and scolding Chen Ziyun as a hooligan, and beating him with a stick, making him run around the courtyard,

she immediately understood what was going on.

She pushed Father Zhou, “Old man, do it, beat the hooligan who dared to climb over our daughter-in-law’s wall to death!”

Father Zhou was also angry. His son was a soldier, fighting for the country, and the educated youths from the city shamelessly harassed his daughter-in-law as soon as he left.

He picked up the dung fork by the wall and poked at Chen Ziyun.

Lin Shulan was not to be outdone, grabbing the stick from Shen Chuning’s hand, “Third son’s wife, give the stick to Mother, Mother will beat him.”

Chen Ziyun was knocked to the ground by Father Zhou with the dung fork, and Lin Shulan’s stick followed suit.

When Mr. Zhou and Mrs. Zhou came over, Lin Shulan stepped aside.

Shen Chuning then threw herself into Lin Shulan’s arms and cried, “Mother… I’m scared, woo woo woo…”

Shen Chuning was really scared.

Although she had made up her mind to teach Chen Ziyun a lesson, she was very brave when she hit him.

But she was relying on her breath.

She knew that with her little strength, if Chen Ziyun had a little courage, he could grab the stick from her hand and fight back.

Lin Shulan felt Shen Chuning trembling all over in fear.

She was heartbroken.

Glaring at Chen Ziyun, who was lying on the ground, being beaten by the eldest and second sons, she said fiercely, “Eldest son, second son, beat him, beat him to death!”

Seeing that the situation was not good, the people from the educated youth point quickly went to invite the team leader and the brigade secretary.

When Team Leader Zhou Conglin and Brigade Secretary Shen Weidong arrived, they saw that Chen Ziyun, who was lying on the ground, was already barely breathing.

“Stop, stop! Mr. Zhou, Mrs. Zhou, stop!”

Zhou Conglin quickly stopped Zhou Jiakang and Zhou Jun.

As soon as Zhou Jiakang and Zhou Jun were stopped, Father Shen and Shen Zhengxu and Shen Zhengliang arrived.

Seeing Shen Chuning crying and gasping for breath, the father and sons’ hearts almost broke.

Knowing that Chen Ziyun had climbed over the wall to harass Shen Chuning, scaring her like this, Shen’s father and sons, without saying a word, rushed forward and gave Chen Ziyun a few more kicks.

At this time, Lu Qiaoqing, standing in the educated youth group, could no longer bear it.

She suddenly rushed forward and lay on top of Chen Ziyun, shouting fiercely, “Get away, get away, Chen Ziyun is not that kind of person, Shen Chuning is slandering him, she’s slandering!

If you dare to touch him again, if he dies, you’re all murderers!”

Brigade Secretary Shen Weidong quickly stopped Shen’s father and sons.

Father Zhou stood up angrily and said, “Team Leader, Secretary, my son is a soldier, he was just urgently recalled to the army this afternoon, and tonight this educated youth climbed over the wall to harass his wife.

If you can’t handle this properly, I’ll go to the commune and find the military affairs office!”

Shen Zhengliang immediately said righteously, “My third brother is also a soldier, even if my younger sister wasn’t married to a soldier, she’s a military family member. Why should this outsider educated youth bully her again and again?”

Zhou Conglin and Shen Weidong, as the heads of the brigade, were also very troubled.

If it was someone from the brigade, they would be punished according to the rules, they would report it to the commune and handle it.

But Chen Ziyun was an educated youth, and they had to inform the educated youth office before they could handle it.

Zhou Conglin and Shen Weidong exchanged a glance, the top priority now was to appease Zhou and Shen families.

As for the educated youth side, except for Lu Qiaoqing, who was protecting Chen Ziyun and crying injustice, the other educated youths had an indifferent attitude, and some even rolled their eyes at Chen Ziyun.

It seemed that the educated youths wouldn’t make trouble for Chen Ziyun, which made things much easier.

Zhou Conglin and Shen Weidong appeased the Zhou and Shen families.

Finally, Shen Weidong said to Shen Chuning, who was still sobbing, “Ningning, your uncle and your Zhou Shu know about this, you’ve been wronged. Don’t worry, your uncle and Zhou Shu will handle this fairly and justly, and will definitely not let go of any scum, and will not let the reputation of military family members be tarnished by these scums.”

Shen Chuning sniffed her red nose and thanked Shen Weidong and Zhou Conglin.

After Shen Weidong and Zhou Conglin took Chen Ziyun away, the other villagers and educated youths who came to watch the excitement also left.

Before leaving, Wang Yumeng looked deeply at Shen Chuning.

When Chen Ziyun, that self-assured man, made that self-assured statement today, she realized that the plot in the book had changed, and Chen Ziyun, the male lead, might be finished.

But it didn’t matter, she still had a backup plan.
