Chapter 30 Unreasonable, Want to Fight Back?
Zhang Daniu nodded. “I reported it, but those beasts closed the door and beat her. There were no witnesses. When the police found them, they denied everything, saying my grandmother fell and injured herself and wanted to extort them.”
Su Wantang was silent for a moment, then asked, “What did the police say?”
Zhang Daniu recalled the scene, “A police officer named Huang Sheng asked me a question, then told me to wait for notification.”
Su Wantang asked, “What did he ask you?”
Zhang Daniu replied, “He asked if anyone saw them beating my grandmother, if anyone could prove it was them. I said only I saw it, I could prove it.”
“Then he repeated: That means there were no witnesses. After saying that, he told me to wait for news.”
Su Wantang nodded slightly, and confidently told Zhang Daniu, “It’s very likely that this Huang Sheng is in cahoots with those people.”
Zhang Daniu’s expression became anxious, “If the police won’t help me, how can I get justice for my grandmother?”
Su Wantang’s gaze was cold, “Then we’ll get justice ourselves!”
Then, Su Wantang analyzed for Zhang Daniu, “First, stop mentioning ‘my father.’ He doesn’t deserve to be your father, don’t acknowledge him! Sun Hua and your mother are divorced, and you’ve lived with your mother since childhood. Sun Hua has no right to decide your marriage.”
Zhang Daniu looked at Su Wantang in bewilderment, “But… but he’s already sold me to the Hu Maizi family to pay off debts. The creditors are coming to our house, they’re completely unreasonable…”
Su Wantang smiled, “Then let’s be unreasonable. Do you want to fight back?”
Zhang Daniu was stunned, then nodded heavily, “Yes! I want to beat those beasts to death!”
Su Wantang stood up, brushing off the dust. She reached out and pulled Zhang Daniu up from the ground.
“Killing them is impossible, it’s illegal. Do you want to get shot? It’s not worth it for those beasts.”
Zhang Daniu’s nose soured, tears welling up in her eyes.
Su Wantang thought for a moment, reminding her, “It’s late, go home and take care of your grandmother. Ask your mother to find the divorce certificate from Sun Hua. Tomorrow afternoon at 2 o’clock, I’ll come to your house. Wait for me, I’ll take you to get revenge!”
Zhang Daniu was overjoyed, her eyes shining as she looked at Su Wantang. She hugged Su Wantang tightly.
Su Wantang wiped away her tears, “Go back quickly, don’t worry your mother and grandmother.”
Although Zhang Daniu didn’t know how Su Wantang planned to get revenge, she felt that Su Wantang was her savior. She trusted her completely!
Zhang Daniu nodded, then turned and ran towards home.
…
The next morning.
Su Wantang was awakened by the work bell. She stared blankly at the ceiling, feeling utterly dejected.
Su Jianguo’s familiar loud voice came from outside as usual: “Xiao Wan, I left your breakfast in the pot. Get up and eat it before it gets cold, I’m going out.”
Su Wantang suddenly remembered something important, she sat up quickly. She jumped out of bed, opened the door, and shouted, “Dad, wait! I forgot to tell you last night, Captain Fu said he’ll bring his parents to our house today to propose!”
The shock on Su Jianguo’s face was evident. He threw down his shovel and ran out.
While walking, he muttered, “You girl, why didn’t you tell me about such a big thing last night? We haven’t prepared anything!”
Su Wantang poked her head out of the door and curiously asked, “Guests are coming, where are you going again?”
Su Jianguo turned around and glared at Su Wantang, “I’m going to ask the captain for leave and buy some food to entertain them! If you have nothing to do, don’t be idle, go to the yard and catch a chicken, kill it and stew chicken soup.”
After washing up in a daze, Su Wantang went to the kitchen and took an egg from the pot. She slowly peeled the eggshell while wandering into the yard. She ate the egg while squatting and eyeing Su Jianguo’s chickens.
Su Jianguo actually wanted her to kill a chicken? She had never killed one before. She wanted to try.
Su Wantang quickly finished the egg. She targeted the chicken she disliked the most and lunged at it.
“Chicken, don’t run away~”
The chicken fluttered its wings and flew away, “clucking” and running around the yard! Su Wantang accidentally fell into the mud. She refused to give up, she had to catch that chicken!
…
Last night, Fu Yanci solemnly told his parents about his intention to propose to the Su family. His parents were overjoyed and immediately expressed their full support.
Early in the morning, the family was busy preparing items to bring to the Su family for the proposal.
Just as they were about to load the items onto the car and happily set off for Heping Village, Fu Yanci’s older sister, Fu Yansue, rushed back from the police station.
She was breathless, her forehead covered in sweat. As soon as she saw Fu Yanci, she anxiously shouted, “Yanci, wait! Commander Chen called, urgently summoning you back to the army!”
