The young couple from the farm fights back

Chapter 83 Jiang Li takes care of Tiedan

It was snowing heavily outside, so Jiang Li asked Aowu to go to Uncle Zhou's house last week. The little guy was born smart, and Uncle Zhou's family was now accustomed to seeing Aowu.

When Aunt Hu heard the howling cries coming from outside the courtyard gate, she immediately guessed that Jiang Li was looking for their family for something. Considering that Jiang Li was pregnant, she was afraid that something might happen to the orphan and widowed child at home. Without saying a word, the whole family took the child and went to the Zhou family courtyard.

When Uncle Zhou saw his haggard and old uncle, he was in disbelief. Then he looked at the timid little girl beside him. What else could he not understand?

I'm afraid that the sons and the grandsons in their teens in the city will be captured by the soldiers to join the army. But even so, with the ability of the boy from my uncle's family, he can't spend money to make up the numbers, and he can't let the old man and the little girl end up in such a situation.

At this point, the uncle no longer hid anything from everyone and slowly told everyone about what was going on at home.

It turned out that when the imperial court sent soldiers to draft the conscripts, his uncle's son and two-year-old grandson tried to settle the matter with money. However, they were set up by a villain behind the scenes, and no matter how much money they offered, the soldiers would take them away, leaving him, an old man, his daughter-in-law, and his little granddaughter to depend on each other.

He thought it would be fine to live like this, but he didn't expect that his daughter-in-law had an affair with him. She put drugs in his calming tea at night, took away all the valuables in the house, and even secretly sold the house in the city, abandoning his little girl and disappeared without a trace.

Soon, the house in the city was bought out, and the penniless uncle decided to take his granddaughter back to the village for shelter. After all, there was an old house in the village. Returning to Shilitun from the county town, the grandparents walked and begged for alms, which took them more than half a month.

When he returned to the village, he discovered that the old courtyard, which had once provided shelter from the elements, had collapsed into ruins. The old man had lived a life of integrity, never complaining and treating others kindly, but he never expected to encounter such a disaster in his old age.

He is an old man and he will die, but his little granddaughter may be the only flesh and blood left in his lineage. It is so dangerous for his sons and grandsons to go to the battlefield, who knows if they will be able to come back alive in the future.

Dashuan and Zhao were shocked when they heard this. They couldn't believe that the most respected elder in the clan had suffered such a disaster.

Aunt Hu even spat fiercely on the ground and angrily cursed her uncle's daughter-in-law who had an affair with him.

Uncle Zhou Er paused for a moment and wanted to say a few words of comfort to the old man, but seeing his cousin's calm and composed face, he felt that any words of comfort would be useless and would only add to the old man's sorrow.

Jiang Li looked at the expressions of Uncle Zhou Er's family, then slowly spoke, "I invited Uncle Er and Auntie here today because I wanted to discuss with them where Uncle Er and Auntie should go next. You can leave the child with us. After all, our Jing Ge'er is about the same age as the little girl, so he can have a companion."

"As the elders know, my headmaster is away now, and the villagers love to quarrel. If my second uncle and aunt can help my headmaster and me and arrange for my uncle to stay in our home, our family can provide him with a monthly allowance."

The uncle had been kind to Zhou Chunfeng's mother, Ruan. No one in the village or the clan could forget the help the uncle had given them, but their family could not.

Uncle Zhou nodded. Aunt Hu felt that Jiang Li was very thoughtful. After all, she was a woman with a young son. Although her uncle was old, in the eyes of some troublemakers, he must not be kept at home.

Uncle Zhou Er said, "I think this is a good idea. In the future, my uncle will live in our house. After all, he is the elder of our Zhou family. If our family has something to eat, he will have to eat. The Chunfeng family doesn't need to worry about this."

Aunt Hu also nodded and said, "You are pregnant now, and there are many children in your family. The little girl will come home with us."

Dashuan and Zhao had no objections at all and followed the arrangements of their elders.

The uncle was filled with emotion and stood up and bowed to everyone: "Thank you all, old man——"

Everyone quickly stood up, and Uncle Zhou Er helped the old man sit down. "Uncle, please don't be so polite to the younger generations. We are all from the same clan. We farmers value friendship and loyalty. You can stay here with peace of mind. With our two families here, you won't have to worry."

The uncle's eyes couldn't help but turn red. He had lived a lifetime, but he had never lost his composure in front of others like this. He couldn't help but blink and take a breath.

After discussion between the two families, the cousin and the little girl followed Uncle Zhou's family out of the Zhou family compound.

There is no capable man in the Zhou family compound now, and everyone knows that the Zhou family's eldest son has made a lot of money from the yam business in the past two years. Everyone in the village is jealous, but they are all afraid that there is a big wild wolf in the compound.

That day, Jiang Li was taking a nap in the house with the two little ones. They were awakened by a burst of crying. Jing'er and An'er, who usually slept soundly, also opened their sleepy eyes.

It was the first time Jiang Li heard Aowu so angry, so he quickly got up and put on his coat, told the two boys not to get down from the kang, and opened the door to go outside to check the situation.

When Jiang Li saw the snow-covered ground in the yard with a few bloody pieces of flesh, and Ao Wu glaring fiercely at the closed gate and roaring at the outside of the door, what else did she not understand?

Aowu turned back anxiously and signaled Jiang Li to open the gate. She was also angry, so she walked forward with her belly bulging and opened the gate.

Awoo was ready to pounce, leaping out with his front paws.

After a while, a man outside cried out in pain: "Ah——!!!"

Jiang Li walked out of the yard with a cold face. Nian Aowu pounced on the man who was trying to escape from behind, opened his mouth and bit the man's hind legs, showing no sign of letting go.

Jiang Li didn't need to see the person clearly, he guessed who it was just by hearing the voice!

He glared at the fallen Tiedan in frustration: "How dare you come to my house and cause trouble again and again."

"Ah!! Let go, let go!!!" Tiedan tried his best but couldn't get rid of the howling creature that was biting his right leg.

Finally, a piece of bloody leg meat was bitten off, and the blood soaked the snow. The pain made him almost faint.

Even though it was snowing, Tiedan's screams still attracted some curious villagers, all of whom were idle aunties who had stayed at home for the winter.

They saw the scene in front of the Zhou family's courtyard from afar and were all terrified. They had long said that the wild animals kept in the Zhou family's courtyard would sooner or later harm the villagers.

Look, he's biting off a piece of someone's leg meat. Is this murder?

Several aunts and sisters looked at Jiang Li with fear and resentment, fearing that Jiang Li would go crazy one day and let wild animals bite to death the few remaining villagers in their village.

Jiang Li didn't care what the villagers thought of her now. She took a few steps forward with a cold look and stepped on Tiedan's wound.

"Ah!!!" Tiedan on the ground screamed again and glared at Jiang Li fiercely: "Jiang, I will kill you!"

Jiang Li was not afraid at all even though her belly was protruding. She raised her right hand and quickly stabbed several silver needles into the ground next to Tiedan's cheek. Tiedan was so scared that he dared not breathe and his whole body was shaking.

Jiang Li glanced at Tiedan with disgust, slightly increased the strength of his foot, and pressed on the wound.

Tiedan's face turned pale with pain, his breath was blocked in his chest, and he screamed in pain twice before fainting.

Jiang Li sneered, looking indifferently at the women not far ahead, her voice deliberately raised: "It's best that you witnessed what happened today. I won't waste time talking to people from my village here. Don't think that just because my husband is away, we Jiangs will be easy to bully. We Jiangs have always been easy to talk to and never hold grudges against anyone. However, if anyone dares to step on our heads again, don't blame me for being rude."

Several nosy aunties and sisters were frightened and curled their lips in displeasure, obviously they couldn't stand Jiang Li's rude and arrogant behavior.

Before these people could think about it, they saw Jiang Li raised his hand again.

Suddenly, two figures sneaked out from behind the Zhou family's pigpen and fell to the ground in pain.

Everyone looked over, their eyes wide in disbelief.

The people lying on the ground are Jiang's uncle and aunt. They moved out of Shilitun many years ago. What happened?
