Fighting Back

When the nearby folks heard Liu Xiaolan's words, the look on their faces changed instantly.

Her words hit their soft spots perfectly. After all, who doesn't want his wife to be virtuous and take good care of his own family.

Marrying a wife for many villagers is like buying a person, they need to give lots of money and gifts to be able to marry a woman to their family. If after all that investment the woman still had to keep filial piety for her own family, wouldn't they all be fools?

"What a joke, a married woman should keep filial piety?"

"Yeah, it's the first time I heard someone speak such nonsense…"

"There's something wrong with the heads of Liu family. A married woman is no longer a part of her original family, since her wedding she should follow her husband's relatives and take care of her new family…"

Liu Weixin was pissed off, after all when did he allow these peasants to talk about his family in this way? No matter what, he still attended to a college in the city, where would he be anywhere close to a level of the villagers?

He looked towards Liu Xiaolan and hate overtook his eyes.

It's all her fault, if not for her, how could he make such a mistake? Seems like that old taoist was telling the truth, this dead girl was a nemesis for sure!

Usually, Liu Weixin would think twice before making trouble in front of other villagers, but after hearing their insults rage overtook his mind and he rushed towards Liu Xiaolan.

"Stupid girl, come here and let me teach you in the place of your father." He shouted while running towards her.

Right before he was in front of Liu Xiaolan, when he already stretched his hand and was prepared to hit her, his hand was grabbed with a strong force and pushed backwards.

Mu Yuchen had a look of murder on his face.

"What the hell do you think you are?" He said word by word with a cold tone.

How dare these people treat his lady like this? Are they still his lady's blood family? What if his lady was sad because of them, or even worse, hurt?

Thinking of this, Mu Yuchen was overcome by anger and wanted to beat Liu Weixin up.

Liu Xiaolan noticed his unrest and quickly held his hand, not letting Mu Yuchen move forward anymore. "Little fool, it's fine. Just ignore him for now…"

Although Liu Xiaolan was feeling disgusted with the Liu family, and to be honest she would also enjoy seeing the sight of Liu Weixin being pummeled by her little fool, but she couldn't allow him to beat him in a public space with villagers around them.

The folks of Liuojia Village already didn't have too good of an attitude towards them.

If they now saw Mu Yuchen beating Liu Weixin up, even if it was a reasonable defence, they would still push a crime of beating their elders on her head.

Even though she didn't really want to have too many interactions with nearby villagers, she still had to live in the village for quite some time. It would be better to try and keep their lives peaceful.

But compared to what Mu Yuchen thought, Liu Xiaolan wasn't actually too sad right now. After all, she wasn't the original soul of this body and had no expectations for the Liu family. For her, it's more like looking at clowns from a sideline than looking at her family.

Not to mention that her little fool looks pretty handsome when he gets serious. Thinking of how he protected her a moment earlier, Liu Xiaolan had a bright smile on her face.

Mu Yuchen still was a little unconvinced, but when he saw the smile on Liu Xiaolan's face, he calmed down and decided to listen to his lady.

He took back Liu Xiaolan's hand and once again held it strongly. He looked towards Liu Weixin and said with a strong voice, "You stupid guy, this time I'll let you go because my lady doesn't want the trouble. But if you dare to try and trouble her again…"

Although Mu Yuchen didn't finish his words, but Liu Weixin knew what he meant. Scared, he picked himself up and run back to his family.

Shen Meijing quickly held her husband and said, "Girl Liu, we might have not treated you the best during the time you lived with us, but we still took care of you for over 10 years. How can you now let your husband beat your blood uncle?"

"This shameless girl doesn't care about filial piety, how could she care about her uncle?" Grandma Liu added in anger, but she was mostly shouting, trying to grab the attention of the villagers.

"Look, she can even hit her own uncle today, who knows if she won't attack other people with her husband in the future?" Yan Rusheng shouted.

While most villagers might not be to smart, they still understood some things.

Mu Yuchen only hit Liu Weixin because he was about to hit his own wife, so they dismissed Grandma Liu's shouts, but there are still a few folks that thought about the murderous aura that Mu Yuchen showed before and were a little scared of him.

Liu Xiaolan couldn't listen to her anymore and said, "Stop telling lies. Where have you seen me or my husband fight with anyone before? Aren't we just defending ourselves?"

"For most of the time, we just spend time in our own home and don't even come near any other villagers. Where do we beat someone up? It's more like your son Liu Weixin, he can even try to beat his own niece, wouldn't he be more dangerous?"

Liu Xiaolan smartly changed the villagers perspective and let them think about the real issue. After all, she's telling the truth. If today Liu Weixin can fight against his own niece, who says that the next time he's angry he wouldn't attack other people in the village?
