Some people in the distance saw that Ye Zirou was taking special care of Xiaochuan's family, and they became jealous and began to mock her.

"Oh, to have married into the royal family is truly extraordinary." Someone said sarcastically, deliberately raising his voice a few decibels, as if afraid that others couldn't hear him.

"It's a pity that he is still a prisoner like us, exiled to this remote place."

"That's right. I thought I was so great."

Another person continued, his tone full of sarcasm.

"In the end, you ended up in this desolate place just like us."

"That's right, what good people can there be when they are collaborating with the enemy and betraying their country?"

The third person added with a sneer, a hint of malice in his eyes.

"Exile is the mercy of His Majesty. He should have been beheaded long ago."

As the Ogawa family listened to these harsh words, their anger was ignited.

Brother Zhang frowned, clenched his fists, and couldn't help but retort.

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

"Nonsense? When the emperor issues an edict, who doesn't know it?" someone asked proudly.

"I advise you to have less contact with them."

The other man warned viciously, a dangerous gleam in his eyes.

"I'm afraid I'll be the scapegoat then."

"Ms. Ye is our family's savior. You are not allowed to slander her!" Mrs. Zhang retorted without showing any weakness.

"My beautiful sister is not what you said!"

Ogawa clenched his fists tightly, his face turned red, and his voice was full of indignation.

"Have we slandered them? Isn't this an obvious fact?" one of them sneered, his tone full of disdain.

Brother Zhang suddenly became so angry that his face turned blue. He rushed forward in rage and punched the man hard in the face.

"You dare to hit me!" the man roared, and then called on others to come forward.

After a while, the two sides started fighting.

Relying on their large numbers, those people surrounded Brother Zhang and beat him with fists and kicks like raindrops.

Mrs. Zhang saw this and rushed forward to stop the fight, but she couldn't stop so many people by herself.

She pushed and pulled desperately, but was soon thrown to the ground, her elbow scraped and bleeding.

Ogawa was so anxious that he burst into tears.

Seeing this, Li Mao and Wu Yong immediately rushed over and forcibly separated the people who were entangled.

"What are you doing? Are you planning a rebellion?"

Wu Yong roared, and slammed the whip in his hand on the ground, making a sharp, crisp sound.

Those people finally stopped and dispersed, only to see Brother Zhang lying on the ground with bruises and blood all over his face.

Mrs. Zhang saw Brother Zhang lying on the ground, and she rushed forward to help him up, tears streaming down her face, and she choked with sobs and said, "Husband, how are you?"

Xiaochuan also rushed over, hugged Brother Zhang tightly, and cried, "Dad, Dad~"

He patted Mrs. Zhang and Xiaochuan gently and tried his best to force a comforting smile.

"I'm fine, it's just a superficial wound, don't be afraid, Xiaochuan, Dad is fine.

Li Mao asked softly: "Are you okay?"

Brother Zhang shook his head weakly: "It's okay."

Wu Yong put away the whip, turned around and pointed at those people, his voice cold.

"If anyone dares to do that again, don't blame me for being rude!"

When those people heard this, they looked at each other, feeling a little afraid in their hearts. They all lowered their heads and dared not say anything more.

Mrs. Zhang helped Mr. Zhang aside and let him sit down and rest.

Mrs. Zhang hurriedly took out a piece of clean cloth from her arms and carefully wiped the blood off Brother Zhang's face, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.

Ogawa held his father's hand tightly, his eyes full of heartache and anger.

"Dad, how are you? Does it hurt?" Xiaochuan's voice was a little hoarse.

"Dad, it doesn't hurt. Boys need to be strong. This injury is nothing."

Brother Zhang forced a smile and tried his best to comfort her.

Mrs. Zhang wiped the wound while crying, "Those people were really too much. How could they beat me like this?"

It was then that Brother Zhang noticed that Sister Zhang's elbow was bleeding. He felt nervous and asked quickly, "Madam, how did you get hurt?"

"Those people just pushed my mother to the ground."

Ogawa choked and tears blurred his vision.

Brother Zhang's eyes were full of pity and self-blame.

"Madam, does it hurt?"

Mrs. Zhang shook her head, holding back tears and said, "My injury is nothing. Look at yourself. Why are you so impulsive?"

There was blame in her voice, but more of it was heartache and helplessness.

"They said that about their benefactor, and I couldn't help it. I'm sorry for making you and the child worry."

Brother Zhang said in a low voice, with a hint of guilt in his eyes.

"Husband, you are not wrong, they are the ones who are wrong." Mrs. Zhang said firmly.

"Yes, Daddy, you taught me that people should be upright and have the courage to stand up when encountering injustice."

Ogawa held his father's hand tightly and said firmly.

"Daddy is not wrong!"

Brother Zhang looked at his wife and son, and a warm feeling surged in his heart. He knew that although he was impulsive, he had done nothing wrong.

Only then did Ye Zirou realize that the noise just now was actually the Ogawa family being beaten.

She walked over immediately and saw Brother Zhang and Sister Zhang in a miserable state, with their clothes in disarray and bruises on their faces. She was burning with anger.

She walked quickly to Brother Zhang.

"Brother Zhang, Sister Zhang, are you okay?" Ye Zirou asked in a low voice, her tone full of concern.

Mrs. Zhang shook her head, tears streaming down her face: "Miss Ye, we are fine."

"What's going on?" Ye Zirou asked.

Ye Zirou turned her gaze to Xiaochuan, only to see that Xiaochuan's face was covered with tear marks, his eyes were red and swollen, and he looked helpless and aggrieved.

Her heart suddenly tightened, and she squatted down and gently hugged Xiaochuan.

"Xiaochuan told me what happened, and I will help you vent your anger."

"Pretty sister, they are bullying daddy and mommy. Woo woo woo~"

As soon as Xiaochuan saw Ye Zirou, the tears that had just stopped bursting out again like a flood.

Xiaochuan sobbed, his voice intermittent: "They...they beat Daddy and scolded my pretty sister...I...I'm so scared..."

Ogawa explained the whole story.

Ye Zirou said indignantly: "Those people are really going too far. We can't just let it go!"

Ye Zirou quickly stood up and was about to look for those people.

Seeing this, Mrs. Zhang hurriedly grabbed her, her eyes full of worry.

"Miss Ye, don't go. We are fine. Don't make a big deal out of it."

"Mrs. Zhang, I can't just stand by and watch them bully you like this!" Ye Zirou looked back at Mrs. Zhang.

Brother Zhang also raised his head, a trace of self-blame and helplessness flashed in his eyes.

"Miss Ye, it's okay. It's all my fault for being too impulsive."
