Chapter 430: Hit Her Again, Bad Old Woman
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The ten or so people looked at Old Madam Zheng who was screaming and discussed in low voices.
A woman gloated. “This old woman is really evil. Last time, she slapped my
Erdan and two of his teeth fell out. He bled a lot and I cried out in anger.”
An old man beside him advised, “Let’s not provoke them. It’s easier for these people to crush us than an ant.”
The man beside him nodded. “That’s right! Let’s just watch them fight. Dogs bite each other. Officials are all bad people.”
“Mother, I’ll go take a look.” A child wanted to run over to watch the commotion.
The woman grabbed the child and patted him. “Don’t go over and cause trouble for the family.”
After Ji Xiang hit the old woman, he returned to check on Little Loach’s injuries. Zhou Jia, Li Yu, and Mr. Wen rushed over when they heard the news. When the children saw Li Yu and Zhou Jia, they cried in grievance and fear.
After Ji Xiang walked over, he pointed at the old woman who had collapsed to the ground and reported to the two of them, “Master, Madam, when I arrived, Young Master was holding a wooden stick and was about to fight that old woman. After I went up and exchanged two moves with her, the old woman said that she was from Earl Jianning’s Estate. Her martial arts skills are not bad, so how could the little stutterer withstand her kick? If I hadn’t arrived, Young Master would have suffered.”
Zhou Jia said angrily, “Do you think you can bully the weak just because you’re from Earl Jianning’s Estate? Capture that old woman. I’m going back to the capital to complain!”
“Yes.” Ji Xiang agreed and walked towards the old woman.
Mr. Wen lowered his head to check on Little Loach’s injuries, whose breathing was unstable. He lifted his clothes and saw a large black and blue footprint on Little Loach’s chest. He said angrily, “How could she be so cruel as to attack a child?”
Zhou Jia looked at Little Loach’s chest and said worriedly, “Sir, Little Loach might have suffered internal injuries!”
Mr. Wen nodded. “Fortunately, his sternum isn’t broken. Perhaps his bones are cracked. Hurry up and carry him back so I can perform acupuncture on him.” Zhou Jia picked up Little Loach and ran back.
Yangyang leaned against Li Yu aggrievedly. “Mother, they said that we’re bumpkins. They said that I’m a dog from a bumpkin family pretending to be Young Master.”
Li Yu patted his back to comfort him and wiped the sweat off his face. “Don’t be angry. This is what Mother told you. We have to use our strength to teach the rules to a family with low morals and no upbringing.”
Yangyang looked up at Li Yu. “We fought them and walked back. This old woman caught up and grabbed Brother Stutterer. We went up to help. Brother Loach pushed me away and he was kicked away by the old woman. We can’t beat this old woman.”
Little Stutterer cried and pointed at the old woman. “That old woman.”
Maizi cried, “Little Loach’s face is yellow.”
Li Yu rubbed their hair one by one and said warmly, “I understand. Go back and wash up. Eat your food first. Cultivate well in the future and don’t be lazy.” “Yes, Madam.” The three of them sobbed.
At this moment, the woman also came with two guards. Seeing that Old
Madam Zheng’s hands had been twisted by Ji Xiang and her legs were twisted
unnaturally, the woman saw Li Yu’s cold gaze beside Ji Xiang and thought to herself that she had provoked someone she shouldn’t have.
The woman stopped the two guards who were rubbing their fists and wanting to snatch Old Madam Zheng back. She took two steps forward and bowed to Li Yu. “May I ask if Madam is the wife of the Minister of Revenue, Lord Zhou?”
“It’s me.” Li Yu looked at her, her cold eyes emitting hostility. “Go back and tell
Earl Jianning that my Zhou family is going against him.”
The woman smiled and bowed deeply. “Madam, please calm down! I..
“Who asked you to act on your own accord? Get lost.” The old lady pointed at the woman and shouted.
The little fatty also rushed over as he panted. He grabbed the old woman’s sleeve and looked at Li Yu in fear. “Grandmother, I’m afraid!”
Old Madam Jianning glanced at Li Yu and pointed at the two guards. She shouted, “Get Old Madam Zheng back. How dare a mere doctor go against my Jianning Manor.”
The little fatty was so excited that his face turned red. “Go, go, go, beat these bumpkins to death.”
Li Yu looked at the grandmother and grandchild coldly and thought of a sentence she had heard in her previous life. Whoever had a grudge against her would marry a daughter who had been raised badly. From the looks of Old Madam Zhou and the person in front of her, it was really not unreasonable.
The two guards waved their fists at Ji Xiang majestically and smiled sinisterly.
“How dare you attack Granny Zheng? You’re courting death.”
Ji Xiang sneered. “Bring it on. I promise I’ll beat the crap out of you.”
A guard shouted and punched Ji Xiang. Li Yu knew from their looks that they were not Ji Xiang’s match. She stood at the side and calmly watched them attack.
Ji Xiang punched faster than the two of them. He punched a guard in the nose and sent him flying with a palm strike. He fell into the ditch.
The other guard raised his leg and kicked Ji Xiang’s abdomen. Ji Xiang took two steps back and dodged the guard’s attack. The guard took two steps in a row and jumped up to kick Ji Xiang.
Ji Xiang dodged, grabbed the guard’s leg with his left hand, and punched his leg with his right hand. There was a scream and a crisp crack. The guard’s leg was broken by Ji Xiang.
Ji Xiang loosened his grip on his leg and the guard fell to the ground. He looked at the guard coldly as the latter wailed repeatedly.
When the old lady saw that the two guards were easily dealt with by Ji Xiang, she cursed and shouted, “Useless things. Raising you is not as useful as raising a dog.”
Li Yu slowly walked up to Old Madam Jianning and berated her, “You vicious old thing. You don’t even let a child off. You’ve lived in vain!”
“I’m the Old Madam of the Earl of Jianning Manor. How dare you be rude to me?” The Old Madam of the Earl of Jianning raised her fierce face and said.
Ji Xiang shouted, “Old woman, my Madam is a first-grade country protector.
How dare you be rude?”
“Nonsense,” Old Mrs. Jianning shouted after hearing that.
“Nonsense. Is there a need for a vicious woman like you?” Li Yu looked at her. “You still have the cheek to say that you’re the Old Madam of Jianning. Even a servant is more polite than you. You’ve lived for so long in vain. Do you understand the principle of pitying the poor and the weak?
“You’re always flaunting your seniority and bullying the common people. You don’t even let off children who are a few years old. Have you learned your manners, morals, and shame or have they been eaten by a dog?”
Old Madam Jianning had been taking advantage of her seniority for so many years and one had ever scolded her in person. Seeing that Li Yu had compared her to a servant and even called her a dog, she pointed at Li Yu with a red face.
“How dare you scold me?”
Li Yu sneered. “So what if I scold you? Put down your wretched claws. Be careful that I’ll chop them up for you.”
“You, you…” The old lady was silent for a long time. She patted her chest and made a scene. “Oh… I don’t want to live anymore. I’m already so old, but I’m being bullied by a junior. Son! Your mother can’t live anymore…”
Li Yu looked at her and rolled her eyes. “Howling won’t kill you. If you don’t want to live anymore, jump into the river! There’s no lid on the river. If you really can’t, try buying a piece of tofu!”
Seeing that she couldn’t scare Li Yu, the old lady stopped crying and looked at
Li Yu with a dark expression..
