Even with her injuries, she could easily defeat a few villagers, given her skill, let alone if all the people present tried to take her on. It wouldn’t take her much effort to cope with them all.

However, this was a rural village in ancient times – showing off too much would only draw attention to herself.

So, she chose the simplest and most brutal method. She picked up a stone from the corner of the courtyard and threw it at Zhao Shuhai’s head. She didn’t know that Xiao Yuchuan was going to betray her; if she did, she certainly wouldn’t help him, and might even beat him to death.

“Ah!” Zhao Shuhai screamed, clutching his bleeding head and shouting, “Who threw the stone at me?

The two men fighting on the ground stopped when they saw Zhao Shuhai’s bloody head.

“Brother, what’s wrong?” Zhao Shugen rushed over, lifted Zhao Shuhai’s hair, and saw a large bloody wound, “Who smashed my brother?” fre ewebno vel.com

The guys looked at each other and took a step back, with no one admitting to it.

“Was it you?” Zhao Shugen pointed at Ding Er.

Ding Er shook his head, “What does it have to do with me? I didn’t do anything.”

“Was it you?” He pointed to Aunt Wang, who was standing nearby.

Aunt Wang became unhappy, “Shugen, don’t make wild accusations. You fought with Chuan, why would I attack your brother? If you keep pointing fingers like this, you’ll offend people!”

“Then what are you standing so close for?”

“This place isn’t yours, why can’t I stand here?” Aunt Wang put her hands on her hips, “Good for you, Zhao Shugen, daring to falsely accuse me. See if I don’t tell my family when I go back and have the head of my family break your legs!”

Zhao Shugen felt guilty, “Stop howling! Forget it if it wasn’t you, I was just asking.” He then suspected a few more people but didn’t say anything, afraid of offending others.

Su Qingyue stood in her original place, not moving. Due to her well-known weak temperament in the village, no one suspected her of daring to throw a stone at someone.

She could tell that Zhao Shugen was looking for the person who had thrown the stone, but she wasn’t stupid enough to admit it. Injuring someone meant having to compensate them with silver taels. It wasn’t that she was afraid to admit it, but the person who was hit by the stone deserved it.

Li Gui, who was standing at the back of the crowd, saw that it was Su Qingyue who had thrown the stone. Looking at her, she was dirty and her face was full of acne scars, but her eyes were bright and clear. Just by looking into her eyes, people seemed to overlook her ugly face.

Originally, he wanted to be fair and tell the truth, but a thought crossed his mind, and he said, “Shugen, what are you still asking? No one will admit it. What are you waiting for? Hurry up and take your brother to Doctor Sun to get him bandaged, or your brother will bleed to death! ”

Zhao Shugen reluctantly helped the constantly wailing Zhao Shuhai and headed for Doctor Sun’s house, glaring at Xiao Yuchuan as they left.

“Chuan, are you still selling your wife?” Old Lady Liu didn’t forget the matter at hand. Normally, having fought over the matter, no one would still ask, but the more she looked at Su Qingyue, the more it felt like not buying her would be a mistake.

Xiao Yuchuan roared, “I told you no! Are you deaf?”

“I’ll add more money, ten taels.” Old Lady Liu hurriedly showed her ten stubby fingers.

The villagers all found this strange and some asked, “Old Lady Liu, you… ‘

“Say it again, and I’ll beat you up with your old wife!” Xiao Yuchuan angrily dragged his injured leg over, looking like he was ready to eat someone.

Old Lady Liu was so scared that she quickly ran out of the Xiao Family’s courtyard, still shouting as she left, “Seventeen taels, you won’t be losing out, there’s still profit to be made…”

“Wow…” The villagers watching the commotion were stunned and began to ask..
