The village chief's face darkened: "Aren't you ashamed? You're spreading your own village affairs outside. Do you want everyone to laugh at our village?"

Qin Huiyin's eyes were red, and she said aggrievedly: "I know that my mother and I are from other places, but my mother has married into the village and is the same as other people in the village. If we don't get the same respect in the village, then we will make a big fuss and let everyone know how much our family has been wronged."

"Little brother..." Tang Luwu squeezed into the crowd, saw this scene, and hugged Tang Yixiao tremblingly.

Tang Yixiao's tears, which had been held back for so long, finally flowed out when he saw his dearest sister: "Sister, Tang Baoyu bullied me..."

Tang Yichen was injured in the chest. Although the stab wound was a little off, the wound was quite deep, so he couldn't do strenuous exercise. He heard about the accident and walked very slowly before rushing over.

With just one glance, he roughly guessed what had happened.

"Village chief, if you don't give me an explanation, I will file a complaint."

"Yi Chen, you just arrived and didn't you see what your stepmother and your brother did just now. Look at Baoyu's mother's injuries, and then look at Baoyu's injuries. If we really make a fuss at the county government, your family will be in vain no matter how right they are."

"That's not what I meant." Tang Yichen said calmly, "Right is right, wrong is wrong. As long as we are right, let alone taking the case to the county government, we can also file a complaint higher up."

"You..." The village chief frowned and turned to glare sharply at Li Erniu. "Baoyu Niang, tell me, what's going on?"

What a stupid woman, why would she mess with their family for no reason?

Li Taohua may seem weak, but she is not easy to mess with. So far, no woman in the village who has messed with her has ever gotten the better of her.

Not to mention that her daughter has become more and more cunning recently. She can even make something dead come alive with her eloquence, and what she says makes so much sense that it is impossible to refute her.

And Tang Yichen, the only scholar in the village, was a renowned talent. He had a high chance of passing the imperial examination, so it would be wise to befriend him.

"That bastard bullied my son." Li Erniu pointed at Tang Yi and laughed, "I only have this one son. When I saw him being bullied, of course I had to retaliate."

The village chief looked at Tang Yi and smiled again: "Why do you bully Tang Baoyu?"

Half of the boys in the village were named Heidan, Heigou, and Hei Niu, and only Li Erniu's son was named Baoyu, which shows how much she doted on this son.

Tang Yixiao hit this precious kid, how could he not fight with him to the death?

However, the elders who had watched the children grow up in the village had a clear sense of character. It was unlikely that Tang Yixiao would actively bully others.

Tang Yi glared at Tang Baoyu and said, "I was passing by here, but he brought a few people to block my way and wouldn't let me pass. He even said that I had to crawl into his crotch like I did before, so that he could vent his anger before he would let me pass."

"Bullshit, I didn't ask you to crawl into my pants today." Tang Baoyu complained, "You are lying."

"So, you admit that you let him drill through before?" Anger flashed in Tang Yichen's eyes.

Tang Baoyu was startled and hid behind Li Erniu, saying unconvincedly: "I didn't... I didn't say that... Anyway, he bit me and I almost died."

Qin Huiyin said, "My younger brother said there were more than one of them. Who are the others? My younger brother, point them out so that I can include them in the petition when I write it."

Tang Yi smiled and pointed at a few people in the crowd: "It's them, they always follow Tang Baoyu to bully me."

"What does this have to do with our Erniu? Our Erniu is very honest and would never bully anyone."

"Yes, it's impossible for my Black Stone to bully others. Was it Tang Baoyu who did it? My Black Stone just happened to be nearby, and you misunderstood?"

"If you aunts don't want your children to get into trouble, then ask them to tell the truth. Why did they bully me before, and why are you bullying me today? As long as they tell the truth about everything, I will give them a lighter sentence for their previous abetting of the evil, considering that they didn't do anything."

When the women heard that they had a chance to make amends, they hurriedly urged their children to confess everything.

Li Erniu and Tang Baoyu stared at the children. The children were afraid of Li Erniu and Tang Baoyu, but even more afraid of their parents' beatings, so they confessed everything.

When the village chief heard the whole story, he was so angry that his beard turned white.

The cause was that Tang Baoyu was unwilling to go up the mountain to chop firewood, but his mother stipulated that he must bring back firewood, and as long as he did so, she would give him money. In order to earn his mother's money, Tang Baoyu refused to work and snatched the firewood that Tang Yixiao had chopped. Tang Yixiao was weak and could not resist. Not only was his firewood stolen, but he was also humiliated.

When Tang Yixiao passed by today, Tang Baoyu was furious because he couldn't get his mother's money. Tang Yixiao's appearance only fueled the anger, leading to this chaos.

"Village Chief, this isn't the first time. My brother has been bullied by Tang Baoyu for a long time, and he's been hurt both physically and mentally," Tang Yichen said. "First, they must apologize to my brother. Of course, even if they apologize, my brother has the right not to forgive them. Second, they must cover the medical expenses. The doctor will decide how much. Third, if it happens again, we'll report it directly to the police. Also, my mother was hurt, and Tang Baoyu's mother must apologize to my mother and promise not to do it again."

"What did you say?" Li Erniu got so excited that she pulled the wound and screamed in pain. "Ouch... look at my face. Do I have to apologize to her?"

Li Taohua had someone to back her up, and having won the fight, she smoothed over her messy hair and said stiffly, "Your son bullied my son, so it's only natural for me to vent his anger. You can't beat me, that's because you're useless. From the beginning to the end, we were not wrong. It's you, the pig-like mother and son, who were wrong."

"Bitch, I'm going to fight you..." Li Erniu screamed and rushed over.

"Village chief, it seems that the Li family does not want to reconcile, so we have no choice but to report to the police." Tang Yichen's expression was indifferent and quite majestic.

"That's enough!" the village chief was furious. "Mother Baoyu, look at you, you crazy woman. Don't you think you're embarrassed enough?"

"Village Chief, my son and I have both been badly injured. We absolutely cannot afford to pay them for the medical treatment. Look at my face, my body, and my son's neck. They should be the ones paying us for the medical treatment!"

"Who's the one who started the trouble?" the village chief angrily asked. "Who told your son to start the trouble? And he let someone get into his pants. Who does he think he is?"

"Little brother, what's wrong with you?" Qin Huiyin shouted nervously, "Mom, little brother seems to be feeling unwell, quickly send him to the clinic."

Tang Yi smiled, closed his eyes, and fell backwards.

Tang Luwu quickly supported him: "Brother...Brother, I fainted."
