Huo Xiao stared at the silver box with a fierce look on his face.
Zhao Laosi didn't want to fight him to the death. He hugged the silver box tightly and found a gap to slip away.
Huo Xiao was even more agitated when he saw that.
He fought without any regard for his own life. Besieged by the crowd, he paid the price of two bone-deep sword wounds on his body to quickly finish off these people and chase after them.
However, Zhao Laosi was clearly prepared this time. By the time he chased after him, Zhao Laosi had already disappeared.
Huo Xiao pursed his lips and frowned.
However, he didn't give up. He turned around and returned to the courtyard with his sword.
Those who were glad that they weren't killed by Zhao Laosi's sword had witnessed the cruelest day of their lives. They wished that they were the ones who had died.
Finally, under Huo Xiao's interrogation, they gave him an address.
Although it was only a temporary place for them to stay, Huo Xiao was like a god of death as he rushed there alone.
Not long after, a servant from the Zhao family rushed over to check on the situation.
What made his scalp go numb was the miserable state of the courtyard.
"Hiss …"
That person sucked in a breath of cold air, turned around and shouted, "Not good, there's a thief! Someone's dead! Someone come quickly! "
His excessively sharp voice also woke up the few people who had fainted from the pain.
However, what awaited them was a second interrogation from the Zhao family.
While Huo Xiao was chasing after Zhao Laosi, Lin Mengya had also rushed to the temporary courtyard with her people.
As soon as she entered the door, she saw Aunt Fang confronting someone.
The others surrounded them, and the atmosphere was chaotic and tense.
Lin Mengya asked Cai Ru to send the ginseng to the patient to save her life. She stood quietly outside the crowd.
"If I say no, it means no! She's my wife. Even if she dies, she has to give birth to my son. Otherwise, I'll divorce her! "
The man in the crowd was rude and unreasonable, and his words were even more inhumane.
Auntie Fang was also enraged. She questioned impolitely, "Are you going to disregard human life? Zhao Yanzong, do you have any conscience? Gui Lan has been married to you for five years, when has she ever enjoyed a single day of good fortune? It's fine that you usually gamble, but after drinking, you come back and vent your anger on your wife. "
"An irresponsible man like you doesn't deserve to be a father or a husband! Don't be afraid, Guiying. Even if it comes to that, we'll still protect our master. We won't let your sister die for no reason! "
When the man called Zhao Yanzong heard this, he flew into a rage.
"Go to hell! She, Zhao Guilan, was a member of my family in life, and a ghost in death. She'll do whatever I tell her to do. Let me tell you, if my son dies, I'll bury you with him! "
Auntie Fang panicked. "Then go ahead and try! Others might be afraid of you, Zhao Yanzong, but I am not! "
"Bitch, you're courting death!"
Zhao Yanzong was so angry that he was about to make a move, but Aunt Fang had a lot of helpers around her. They pulled the two of them apart.
Lin Mengya hid at the side. Although she only heard a few words, she had a general idea of the cause of the matter.
She still remembered the pregnant woman named Zhao Guilan.
With someone else.
Compared to her, Zhao Guilan was more introverted. She spoke and did things timidly, and was not good at socializing with others.
Moreover, when she was examining the pregnant women, she found that there were many old injuries on Zhao Guilan's body.
She didn't expect that these were the evidence of domestic violence.
Her eyes turned cold.
Even if this bastard was Zhao Guilan's husband, she had tried her best to protect the mother and daughter's lives.
No matter what, she would not let this bastard decide the life and death of the mother and daughter.
At this moment, the auntie who was still helping in the delivery room suddenly ran out and screamed.
"Oh no, oh no! Guilan's fetus is not in the right position. I'm afraid it's going to be a difficult delivery! "
At this moment, Zhao Guiying was already scared out of her wits. She suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the crowd. She cried and said, "Please, please save my sister! I'll do anything you want me to do. I'll repay your great kindness even if I have to work like an ox or a horse. Please save my sister! "
Compared to Zhao Guiying's panic and helplessness, Zhao Guilan's in-laws were quite cold-blooded and selfish.
The bastard man shouted impatiently toward the delivery room, "Zhao Guilan, you useless wretch! If you don't give birth to my son, I'll definitely break your legs! "
And right behind the man stood a rather mean old couple.
They didn't speak before, but now they seemed to be a little anxious and shouted toward the inside, "You've been married to our family for so many years. You should have left a child for our son. If you give birth to a good grandson for us this time, our family will still recognize you as their daughter-in-law. Otherwise, you'll be a beggar with your sister! "
Lin Mengya crossed her arms and looked coldly at the ugly faces of this family.
She finally knew why Zhao Guilan was so timid. With such a man and in-laws, she was afraid that she had been tortured very badly in the past five years.
Zhao Guiying, who had been lying on the ground crying, glared at the three people with a pair of red eyes at this moment.
"All of you, shut up!"
She suddenly jumped up and grabbed her brother-in-law's collar with a pair of rough hands.
"If you hadn't forced Guilan to steal charcoal for you to eat, how would she have fallen?"
"You three cruel and unscrupulous people, if it wasn't for my sister who often helped you, you would have frozen to death at home by now!"
"Do you know that she starved here with her child just to save rations for you!"
"Your family is not human at all! You're the evil spirits who want to hurt my sister! "
Zhao Guiying did not care about this layer of skin, and immediately the crowd burst into an uproar.
The faces of the three people swelled to the color of pig liver.
But they didn't think that they had done anything wrong, especially the shrewd and tough old lady, who jumped up and gave Zhao Guiying a slap.
"Go to hell, you little whore! If you continue to talk nonsense and ruin my son's reputation, I'll tear your mouth apart! "
Zhao Guiying's mouth was immediately broken, but she was also forced into a corner and began to scold the old lady regardless of anything.
"Your family has even more disgusting things! My sister hasn't given birth for five years, but it's not that she can't give birth, it's that she was clearly pregnant the first two times, but your son aborted them! "
As she said that, she glared at Zhao Yanzong and that old bastard with a hateful gaze.
The old man's eyebrows jumped, and he secretly cursed, but then he saw Zhao Guiying angrily roar,
"But not only did you push all the blame onto my sister, you even wanted to trick me into giving birth to a child in your son's womb! It's not enough for you to humiliate people like this, even that old bastard wanted to pry open my door in the middle of the night! "
When these things were said, everyone was not just shocked.
It must be known that although the city they lived in was not big, because of Elder Zhao and the elder's wife's careful management, the people had always been simple and honest.
But they never thought that the neighbors who they thought were just hot-tempered were actually such a group of shameless bastards. This made them even more indignant, as if they had become one of the bastards and had been humiliated together with them.
When the old woman saw that her family's scandal was exposed, she gritted her teeth and wanted to rush forward to strangle Zhao Guiying's neck.
"Shameless slut, slut! I knew that widows like you who have lost your man are the most restless! Not only did you seduce my son, but you also seduced my old man. Today, I will personally cut off your lowly skin and flesh. Let's see what you will use to seduce a man! "
As she said that, the two of them were already fighting, and even Zhao Yanzong started to fight.
The surrounding people wanted to stop the fight, causing the whole courtyard to be in chaos again.
Aunt Fang tried hard to separate the two groups of people, but she brought limited manpower, and she couldn't use force on ordinary people, so it was very troublesome.
Seeing this, Lin Mengya stopped watching.
She gave Cai Ru a look, and the latter nodded, and with her excellent Lightness Skill, she landed in the middle of the crowd.
She carried Zhao Guiying and Zhao Yanzong together, one in each hand.
However, when it came to Zhao Yanzong, she threw him with great strength, but when it came to Zhao Guiying, she was much gentler.
Zhao Yanzong felt dizzy, and he fell on his face.
Moreover, his front teeth were knocked on the stone slab at the door. Instantly, he was in so much pain that he saw stars, and his mouth was full of the taste of blood.
Without these two people, the other side was quickly blacklisted.
The situation of the old couple of the Zhao family was not much better.
There was no lack of people in the crowd who sympathized with Zhao Guiying and her sister.
Moreover, because everyone had lived together for a period of time, they could see the character of this pair of sisters.
Therefore, taking advantage of the chaos just now, everyone stepped forward to punch and kick the three scumbags.
Now that they were separated, only the old couple of the Zhao family and their son were lying on the ground.
The old woman immediately wailed and beat her chest and stamped her feet as if she had suffered a great grievance.
However, no one sympathized with them, and everyone was spitting on their despicable behavior in their hearts.
Zhao Yanzong felt so wronged.
Just when he was about to raise his head, he was stepped on by a foot that was wearing a pair of shoes.
Cai Ru warned him coldly, as if she was familiar with the situation.
"My master is such a precious person, how can a filthy thing like you look at him? Lie down, or I'll dig your eyes out! "
Zhao Yanzong gritted his remaining teeth so hard that they almost broke.
He could only see a pair of snow-white leather boots in front of him, walking past him.
Only then did people in the courtyard notice her, and some finally recognized her.
"It's Miss Ya!"
"That's right, Miss Ya is back!"
"Sister Gui Lan can be saved!"
