"Yes, Mrs. Liu, you must not be impulsive."

Others did not dare to continue watching the show, for fear that Xia Mo would be injured right under their noses, and something bad might happen to him, which would be embarrassing if it got out.

Xia Mo didn't expect Liu Yingying to protect him so much, and he was deeply moved.

He nodded to Liu Yingying: "Sister Yingying, I'm fine."

Then he turned to Yu, who was being pulled apart by the two women, and said, "Why, Liu Baokun hasn't even passed the exam yet and you're already showing off your power? You'll be punished for defying and slandering our country's laws."

"You, you are slandering me! I didn't say that... everyone is listening." Yu was a bully at home, and she felt guilty when Xia Mo threatened her.

Seeing her shaky appearance, Xia Mo sighed: "Hey, grandma, please don't faint. My family has no money left."

Tch, everyone can act, Xia Mo complained inwardly.

As far as he knew, the old woman was very greedy for money and was a typical miser. The fact that Li treated Ze Ge'er like that was due to the great merit of the old woman.

Xia Mo's eyes turned, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind. He stared at Yu, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

Xia Mo glanced at the people watching the excitement, and suddenly tears welled up in his eyes. He said very sadly:

"Brother Ling spent thirty taels of silver to buy me, and he has already spent all his family's wealth. Now I just want to live a peaceful life... Why are you making trouble again! I am Brother Ling's person in life and Brother Ling's ghost in death! If you are not in good health, don't come to me again. If you suddenly get sick, my family has no money to treat you."

As Xia Mo spoke, he secretly pinched his own flesh, and his eyes suddenly turned red, with two bean-sized beads sliding down from the corners of his eyes.

"What! Thirty taels!" someone exclaimed.

It was not three taels, nor ten taels, but thirty taels. This amount of money could be said to be the entire assets of an ordinary farmer, yet Lingchuan was willing to give it.

The onlookers were shocked, and among their shock, they looked at Yu with envy and jealousy.

They all knew that Ze Ge'er was sold to Lingchuan, but they didn't know how much the Liu family received. Apart from anything else, this money was more than enough to buy out the relationship between the two parties.

Liu Yingying was also shocked. Is Brother Ling so rich? Then she thought about how the Liu family had the nerve to come and make trouble after receiving such a large sum of money. She frowned and cursed inwardly that they were so shameless.

Yu was also dumbfounded at this time. Her sarcastic and wrinkled face became extremely funny.

She could never have imagined that her good daughter-in-law, whom she was very satisfied with, would actually cheat her and embezzle ten taels of silver and only hand over twenty taels of silver!

Good, it's really good, Li, you bitch, you dare to cheat me! It seems that you are also corrupt! Wait for me, old woman, and see how I will deal with you when I go back! Yu said angrily in her heart.

Then she glared at Xia Mo again and said through gritted teeth: "He did this voluntarily. We didn't force him."

Unfortunately, no matter how hard she stared, her triangular eyes wouldn't get much bigger.

Not bragging, Xia Mo glared back, no matter how you compare, your little eyes are not bigger than mine, humph.

"Haha..." Xia Mo laughed softly, "You originally wanted to sell me to Wang Mazi, and the asking price was twenty taels. It was Brother Ling who saw me and couldn't bear it, so he bought me... When Li saw that Brother Ling was interested in buying me, she deliberately raised the price. The deed in Brother Ling's hand clearly states everything."

"Oh! Wang Mazi? Isn't that the gangster who beat two wives to death? Wasn't he thrown into jail? Is he out?" An aunt asked several questions in succession.

Liu Yingying raised her eyebrows slightly, she really couldn't imagine that Li could be so cruel. She knew what kind of person Wang Mazi was but still wanted to sell Ze Ge'er to him. This was clearly... Fortunately, there was Brother Ling, and Ze Ge'er and Liu Dazhi broke off their relationship!

After hearing what the aunt said, Xia Mo's eyes were filled with thick ink, deep and bottomless, and he stared at Yu coldly.

He originally thought that Wang Mazi was just a lazy gangster, but he didn't expect that he was actually a domestic violence man. It was obvious that Li wanted to make life difficult for Ze Ge'er.

Yu was so frightened by Xia Mo's sinister eyes that she swallowed her saliva wildly, as if she saw the evil spirit coming out from behind him. She quickly jumped up and stepped back. What did this little bastard want to do?

Unexpectedly, the onlookers also retreated, as if they were avoiding something dirty.

Yu looked at them in disbelief, only to realize that those who had thought she was right just now and supported her were now looking at her with disdain.

Xia Mo sneered. This is human nature. They can help the Liu family to blame him for his wrongdoings, but they can also be jealous of the Liu family for making a huge sum of money.

"Hey hey...Ze brother, Brother Ling is back!" Just then, Liu Yu hurried over and shouted.

"Don't worry, Ze'er. Brother Ling is back, and he will never let you be bullied." Liu Yingying said to Xia Mo with a smile, and glanced at Yu who was feeling guilty and scared.

"Yeah!" Xia Mo nodded cooperatively.

Yu, who originally wanted to take advantage of the situation, stopped howling immediately. She looked at Liu Yu, and seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, she ran away very quickly.

Those who are still waiting to watch the show: …

Xia Mo smiled and said, "Why? The actors have all left. Do you want to stay and have dinner with my husband before leaving?"

No… they don’t want to.

When they heard that Ling Chuan had returned, these people didn't dare to stay any longer and left in disgrace.

Xia Mo ignored them and smiled at Liu Yingying and Liu Yu, "Sister Yingying, Brother Yu, thank you."

Helped him again and again.

"Why are you being so polite? We are just fellow villagers."

Liu Yingying's heart was filled with tenderness, and she exuded the radiance of maternal love. "If you have any problems in the future, just tell us. There are still many people in the village who can distinguish right from wrong."

Seeing this, Xia Mo's mouth twitched, but he still replied: "Sister Yingying, Brother Yu, why don't you eat first before leaving? Your brother Ling has shot a wild rabbit and you can try my cooking skills."

Oh, he was slapped in the face again. Xia Mo sighed and hoped that Ling Chuan would not mind his self-assertion.

"No, I still have to carry the pig feed back." Liu Yingying refused with a smile.

"Me too. My mother told me to make egg custard for me tonight." Liu Yu said.

The three of them chatted for a while before Xia Mo realized that Liu Yu was lying and Ling Chuan had not come back at all. Looking at Liu Yu's look of "I'm so smart", Xia Mo smiled and really wanted to stroke his furry little head.

The two of them left without saying a word. Xia Mo touched the scar on his forehead helplessly. He should be able to go out in a day or two, right?

As the sun sets, the afterglow of the sun shines through the leaves and falls sporadically on the ground. Smoke is already rising from the small village, and a few lonely birds fly across the sky, heading home to their nests.

At this time, Lingchuan was coming back from the village chief's house. He had heard that Yu was coming to make trouble on the way, so he quickened his pace.

"Brother Ling!" Liu Yingying, who was herding ducks, called him.

"Huh?" Ling Chuan turned around.

Liu Yingying touched her black hair with an awkward smile, and seemed a little embarrassed as she said, "Just now, Ze Ge'er was bullied by Old Lady Liu and he cried." As she spoke, she glanced at Ling Chuan's expression.

Sure enough, Ling Chuan's face suddenly darkened after hearing this.
