I was sold when I opened my eyes! My sick and disabled husband comforts me every night after he wake

Upon hearing this, Mo Ning's heart leaped into his throat. He knew that someone must have come to cause trouble for Lan Zhi again. He desperately wanted to go out and see what was happening, and he wanted to stand in front of Lan Zhi to protect her from being bullied.

But he couldn't move his hands or his legs. He could only sit there helplessly, unable to do anything. He hated himself, hated himself so much he gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do.

Outside the gate, Lan Zhi looked at Wu Erniang and Gao Cuihua, who were standing aggressively in front of her, and gave a helpless chuckle.

"You two are just like that, mother and daughter. You keep using vulgar language, aren't you afraid of incurring divine retribution for saying so many insults?"

Wu Erniang pointed at her and walked towards her, cursing angrily:

"You shameless bitch, how dare you hit my daughter! You're shameless! Everyone come and see how shameless this woman is! My daughter went to her house as a guest, and she was afraid my daughter would see her shameful deeds, so she actually slapped my daughter! Everyone come and see!"

As she spoke, Gao Cuihua cried. Hearing her cries, villagers rushed over.

For those who live in the village year-round, such a lively event is something no one wants to miss.

Seeing that almost everyone had arrived, Wu Erniang put her hands on her hips and began to curse.

"Ling Lanzhi, you were the one who wanted the money and married that cripple. Who can you blame? Look at you these past few days, flaunting yourself everywhere, seducing men. Look at the mess you've made of the village! Young and old alike, all these old men are practically glued to you, their eyes practically glued to you. And you still have no shame, flirting with these old men. What's wrong with my daughter saying a few words to you? How dare you hit her? I've never laid a hand on her since she was a child. Who do you think you are, daring to hit my daughter?"

After hearing her words, the villagers present started pointing and whispering. Lan Zhi took a deep breath, put her hands on her hips, and retorted:

"Wu Erniang, Gao Cuihua, which of you mother and daughters saw me seducing a man? Which man did I seduce? Bring him out and let him confront me. Also, you just said that your daughter started talking to me. Who does she think she is, and what right does she have to talk to me like that? I, Ling Lanzhi, will say it one last time: if you're not afraid of divine retribution, then keep spouting nonsense!"

"I'm being punished by God? A woman like you is the one who deserves to be punished by God. You little slut, I'll beat you to death today."

"stop."

Nie Shuren's voice rang out, and Wu Erniang, who was about to attack Lan Zhi, quickly turned around. At that moment, the crowd parted to make way for him. He stepped out from the crowd, glanced at Wu Erniang and Lan Zhi respectively, and said angrily:

"What are you all yelling about? Aren't you ashamed? Do you have nothing better to do, or do you want everyone to watch the show?"

Wu Erniang glared at him, then pointed at Lan Zhi and angrily rebuked her:

“She hit my Cuihua first. You’re the village chief, how are you going to handle this? If you don’t handle it properly, I’ll report it to the authorities and have them arrest her and chop off her hand.”

"Shut up."

Nie Shuren frowned and glared at Wu Erniang with annoyance.

“There must be a reason why they beat up Cuihua. It’s outrageous for you to shout like that at their gate.”

Wu Erniang took a few heavy breaths and stared at Nie Shuren with wide eyes.

"You, Nie Shuren, you call yourself the village chief? Have you been bewitched by this little vixen and are actually speaking up for her? Everyone, come and see! My daughter has been beaten, and the village chief is scolding me without even asking what happened. Clearly, he's been blinded by this little vixen."

Hearing Wu Erniang's baseless slander, Nie Shuren's face turned ashen with anger. At this moment, Wu Juan rushed out from the crowd and launched into a tirade against Wu Erniang.

"Wu Er, you're talking nonsense. Shuren isn't that kind of person. Don't slander people. Do you think all men are as shameless as yours?"

"Who are you calling shameless? You're the shameless one! If you dare say another word about me, I'll tear your mouth apart."

Wu Juan immediately rolled up her sleeves and moved closer to Wu Erniang, still cursing angrily.

"Come on, tear it! Come on!"

Wu Erniang walked towards her without any politeness, gritting her teeth in provocation.

"Come just come, who is afraid of whom?"

The scene before her eyes left Lan Zhi feeling both amused and exasperated.

Wu Erniang originally came to settle accounts with her, so how did she end up arguing with Wu Juan?

She crossed her arms and watched the two sisters as if they were watching a spectacle.

Gao Cuihua seemed to realize something was wrong and quickly tugged at Wu Erniang.

"Mom, we're here to settle accounts with her, why are you arguing with Auntie?"

"Pah! Who's your aunt? She's nothing!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Juan quickened her pace and rushed over, engaging in a fight with Wu Erniang. Some onlookers watched the spectacle, while others stepped forward to break up the fight, and the situation briefly spiraled out of control.

Nie Shuren waved to Lan Zhi, signaling her to go back inside. She simply turned around and went back to the courtyard, closing the gate. Anyway, she didn't like watching such a commotion.

The commotion outside made Mo Ning very anxious. He kept his eyes fixed on the door, hoping that Lan Zhi would return soon.

'Squeak! '

The door opened, and when he saw Lan Zhi, he felt a sense of relief.

"Are you OK?"

He asked impatiently, but she shook her head with a relaxed expression.

"fine."

"Why is it still so noisy outside?"

"Wu Erniang and Wu Juan, two sisters, are arguing."

Why are the two sisters arguing? Can't they talk things out?

"I don't know the specifics. Maybe there's some past grudge. But I think if two sisters have a grudge that they can't resolve and it's heartbreaking, it's better for them to argue with outsiders."

As she said this, his eyes flickered a few times, then he sighed softly and nodded.

"You're right. Even between brothers and sisters, a feud can be the biggest one, one that no one can resolve."

He seemed to be thinking about his past, and his eyes dimmed slightly.

She echoed him, not understanding why.

"Yes, if it weren't for a huge grudge, why would brothers and sisters have to fight like this?"

As she said this, she glanced outside.

"There seems to be no sound outside. I need to go fetch water. Are you tired? Do you want to lie down on the bed for a while?"

He shook his head hurriedly.

"I've been lying down for five years, my bones are all limp. I didn't get enough sun, can you push me outside to sit for a while?"

Seeing that his tone was much more relaxed than before, she smiled slightly.

"That's good. If you have any requests in the future, just tell me. I will try my best to fulfill them."

She pushed him towards the door, and he cautiously asked,

"Then...when will you start treating my injuries?"

"Are you anxious?"

He nodded.

"I don't want to see you so tired, and I don't want others to bully you."
