Reborn 99 Days Later, Becoming a Landlady and Getting into Tsinghua and Peking Universities
Chapter 38 Protecting Weaknesses
The rice is almost ripe, and the paddy fields are a golden yellow.
With some time still left, Hua Yuansheng locked the door, put his hands behind his back, and went out to conduct his routine inspection of the fields.
Watching the ripe rice sway gracefully in the sunlight, the entire rice field seemed to be enveloped in a golden halo.
Hua Yuansheng casually picked a rice stalk and touched it with satisfaction.
Seeing its heavy, drooping head full and not shriveled, Hua Yuansheng seemed to have already sensed the joy of a bountiful harvest.
"I heard that Uncle Sheng goes out early and comes back late every day with his two granddaughters. Do you think he's made any money?"
Villager A, with his trousers rolled up and a stalk of rice dangling from his mouth, sat by the field gossiping.
A gentle breeze blows, and the rice paddies undulate like waves, with golden rice ears swaying in the wind and making a rustling sound.
Villager B squinted: "I heard they made a lot of money. But no matter how much, it can't cover the cost of school."
What do you think Uncle Sheng is after?
At his age, while others are enjoying their retirement, he still brought back two money-losing kids to support.
"Weren't his two ungrateful daughters enough to make him see clearly? Having daughters is utterly useless!"
Villager A thought about it and agreed: "What if Uncle Sheng comes to us asking for money? Should we lend it to him or not?"
"Of course not! If you borrow and return, it's easy to borrow again."
Uncle Sheng is getting old; he might be buried any day now.
"Lending him money is like throwing good money after bad, a waste of time and money," Villager B said without hesitation.
"Can……"
"You have money, lend it to me! I don't have any money to waste!"
Hua Yuansheng, who had quietly moved behind the two of them without anyone noticing, had his chest heave a few times.
I took a deep breath and closed my eyes.
He knew all too well that people could say whatever they wanted.
If you get angry with someone because of these words, you're just making things difficult for yourself.
Anyway, it's his own child, he knows what's going on.
Hua Yuansheng walked lightly, his hands behind his back, preparing to leave.
Suddenly, villager B let out a lewd laugh:
"However, Uncle Sheng's two granddaughters are quite good-looking. Especially the older one, she's very well-developed..."
If things really get really bad, spending some money on betrothal gifts is still a good idea!
Although the two girls lost their mother and their father no longer cared about them.
But for Uncle Sheng's sake, my Erhu..."
Villager A felt a lump in his throat, and a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes.
"You saying that to me is just... Uncle Sheng."
A surge of anger rushed to Hua Yuansheng's head. He turned around, grabbed Villager B by the collar, and punched him.
"Can you say that again!"
Villager B's voice trembled; he didn't dare look at Hua Yuansheng, whose eyes were glaring like a bull's, and stammered, "Uncle Sheng~"
Hua Yuansheng remained expressionless, his eyes flashing with icy coldness: "Don't call me that, I can't accept it!"
You dare to covet my peaches and pears? I advise you to give up on that idea now!
If I hear you saying these things behind my back again, don't blame me for being ruthless!
Villager B protested: "Uncle Sheng, I'm doing this for your own good. You're already so old, how many more years can you live..."
What's wrong with my Erhu? He's strong and hardworking..."
Before he could finish speaking, Hua Yuansheng threw a punch.
Villager B was punched twice in a row and could no longer endure it, struggling to fight back.
But what he never expected was that Hua Yuansheng, who was already quite old, was so strong.
He, a middle-aged man in his prime, was pinned to the ground and completely unable to move.
Villager Jia swallowed hard, seeing Hua Yuansheng so enraged for the first time.
Suddenly, a rumor I heard as a child about Hua Yuansheng killing an adult sow all by himself flashed through my mind.
He didn't dare to intervene in the fight and turned to run back into the village.
Just as Liang Yili finished cooking the crayfish, she heard a shout from outside:
"Are Peach and Pear there? Your grandpa's in a fight!"
The gourd ladle in Liang Ruotao's hand suddenly fell to the ground.
Liang Yili sprang up from the low stool with a whoosh.
They exclaimed in unison, "What?"
The visitor, breathless, exclaimed, "Your grandfather got into a fight with someone in the fields!"
While getting information from the messenger, Liang Yili and her sister ran towards the fields.
When she heard that Hua Yuansheng had gotten into a fight because of them, she paused slightly.
The next second, he started running like a gust of wind.
When they arrived, the field was already surrounded by layers of people.
The two sisters first looked Hua Yuansheng up and down, who was being protected by Hua Anshan.
After confirming that the other person was alright, he turned to look at the woman kneeling on the ground, wailing and crying loudly.
"They're bullying me! Come quick, they're bullying me!"
"It was just a couple of words, why did you have to hit me? You're just taking advantage of your surname, Hua, to bully us outsiders."
A woman's words stirred up a conflict over surnames throughout the village.
Village Chief Hua Anyan frowned.
Sure enough, the onlookers immediately began to whisper among themselves.
Liang Yili raised an eyebrow and stepped forward:
"Bullying someone? My grandfather is almost 60 years old, bullying a young man in his early 40s?"
The noisy scene suddenly fell silent.
Liang Yili smiled slightly and looked around.
He then grabbed villager B's arm with lightning speed.
With a snap, before anyone could react, villager B's arm was dislocated.
Liang Yili stared at everyone with a fierce expression:
"My grandfather is old, his bones are brittle, and he has a bad temper!"
When you're gossiping behind his back, you'd better do it behind his back!
My sister has a gentle temperament and is kind to others.
But I'm the kind of person who's protective of my own.
If I see anyone bullying my grandfather again, or someone talking behind his back, I will be furious.
I don't mind doing something to open your eyes!
As she spoke, Liang Yili gave a cold laugh: "Anyway, those who have nothing to lose are not afraid of those who have something to lose. I have no parents, so I'm not afraid of anyone!"
"If you want to try, you're welcome anytime!"
After saying that, with the woman looking shocked, he pressed the villager's arm back down.
Liang Yili looked at Villager B: "Do you have anything to say?"
Villager B looked at Liang Yili, who resembled a wolf cub with fierce eyes, and didn't dare to say a word.
He stammered, "No, I was being foolish. I won't say it again, I won't say it again."
"Okay! We have other things to do, so we'll head back now."
"Good good!"
Village chief Hua Anyan scratched his head.
As he watched the villager B bowing and scraping as Liang Yili and her two grandchildren left, he suddenly felt a little dazed.
On his way here, he had already prepared himself for a complete mess.
After all, based on past experience...
Whenever a dispute arises between two families.
In particular, one of the parties, surnamed "Hua," a prominent surname in the village, got into a dispute with people from outside the village.
That won't be resolved in less than three to five days.
In more serious cases, it can even lead to conflict over surnames.
So, this matter was resolved so simply?
Hua Anyan chuckled as he thought of Liang Yili's fierce expression.
"Pear, you were too impulsive!"
Hua Anshan, who had been holding back for a long time, couldn't help but speak.
Liang Yili raised an eyebrow: "Really?"
But I feel like the world only becomes gentle and refined when I'm ruthless enough.
"But to survive in the village, one must understand the proper social etiquette..."
"As long as I'm strong enough, I can handle all social niceties!"
"How can one sweep the world if one cannot even sweep one's own house? I can't even take care of my closest family members, so how can I talk about anything else?"
Following Liang Yili's silent and ruthless dislocation of the man's arm.
Her words once again dealt a huge blow to Liang Ruotao.
But what Liang Ruotao didn't expect was that Liang Yili would then show everyone through her actions.
Just how protective she is of her own!
