Chapter 78 He kicked her.

Tan Xinghua let out a howl and pounced on Wang Sanhu, crying out, "My son, my dear son, what's wrong with you?"

After asking a pointless question without thinking, Tan Xinghua, realizing what was happening, turned around and lunged at Xie Wanniang, the culprit who had harmed her son, before Wang Sanhu could even speak.

She stretched out both hands, one to pull Xie Wanniang's hair, and the other to try to scratch Xie Wanniang's cheek.

Xie Wanniang certainly wouldn't let her succeed. When Xiao Yang moved his little body, trying to protect her, she pulled the child behind her with one hand, and then swiftly raised her foot, giving Tan Xinghua a kick to the chest.

Tan Xinghua staggered back a few steps after being kicked, clutching her chest and crying out in pain.

Xie Wanniang withdrew her foot, regretting that she hadn't managed to kick the woman so hard she could fly away.

She's still not quite there; she clearly hasn't practiced enough.

She reflected on herself here and silently decided to ask Jiang Yuan for extra practice tomorrow. The villagers watching were all amazed by the girl's swift kick.

If they remembered correctly, when this girl was sneaking around trying to climb the wall, she was still a pampered young lady who could only rely on Jiang Yuan for protection. How come in just over half a year, she has evolved from a delicate young lady into someone who can easily handle strong men and peasant women?

As everyone chatted loudly, they all turned their attention to Jiang Yuan, who followed the village head through the crowd to Xie Wanniang and Xiao Yang's side.

Ignoring everyone else, Jiang Yuan quickly sized up Xie Wanniang and Xiao Yang, asking, "Were you scared? Were you hit?"

Xie Wanniang shook her head while giving him a bright smile, "Of course not."

Before she started practicing martial arts, she was no pushover, not to mention that in the past six months, she had also learned some self-defense techniques from Jiang Yuan.

Now she not only knows some basic and practical boxing, kicking, and staff techniques, but her physical fitness has also greatly improved compared to before.

Her strength, agility, endurance, flexibility, coordination, explosiveness, reaction speed, balance... in every aspect, she has reached or exceeded the average level of a normal adult.

Perhaps without drugs and hidden weapons, she cannot fight five or even ten opponents at once, but as long as she has a stick, she can beat up to three enemies to a pulp.

When Xie Wanniang's gaze met that of Wang Xiaozhi, whose face was full of guilt, she took the initiative to step forward and hug the poor woman who was about to cry.

Today is the day her husband's family is separating from their own, but her uncles, aunts, and cousins ​​from her own family came to Hao Yu's house and climbed over the wall, plotting something nefarious. This made her both angry and ashamed.

She was furious because they were so malicious, almost ruining the girl her brother admired. She was ashamed because her sisters-in-law's families were all in their village right now, and the joke her family had made would soon spread throughout the surrounding villages.

"Sister, don't be sad. It's not worth it for that kind of scum." Xie Wanniang patted her back. "Your good days are yet to come. From now on, we'll live happily every day."

Wang Xiaozhi wiped away her tears, "I'm so sorry, it's all my fault..."

Xie Wanniang took out a handkerchief and handed it to her, saying, "Don't apologize, you didn't do anything wrong."

Jiang Yuan also said, "Sister, don't get involved in this."

Xie Wanniang nodded, "That's right, just stand aside and watch how I deal with these scumbags."

Jiang Yuan added, "And me too."

Onlookers: ...Why do I feel like these two have such great chemistry?

After comforting Wang Xiaozhi, Xie Wanniang turned to look at Chen Lizheng.

“Uncle Village Head, this man climbed over the wall and entered my house today while Uncle Hao and A Yuan were away. I heard the noise and came out to see what was going on, and found him trying to sneak into the house.”

"When he saw me, he not only didn't run away, but turned around and pounced on me from the main house, trying to ruin my reputation. In order to protect myself, I grabbed a stick and beat him up."

“My neighbors, Brother Chen and Sister-in-law Xiaoyan, heard the commotion. One of them climbed over the wall to help me, and the other went out to find you to help uphold justice.”

Upon hearing this, Deng Xiaoyan immediately pointed at Wang Eryou, Tan Xinghua, and Wang Erhu, saying, "I was stopped by this family of three as soon as I came out of my house. I asked them to make way for me, but they refused. Fortunately, other people living nearby heard the commotion and ran out. After seeing them, they immediately ran to deliver the letter to you."

They didn't need to say anything more; the villagers told Chen Lizheng and the others what happened next, one after another.

Chen Lizheng felt utterly humiliated because people from other villages had come along. He glared at the Wang family with a dark expression.

"Wang Sanhu attempted to steal other people's money and forcibly take a woman's virginity. He was caught red-handed and a beating was inevitable."

"As for the three of you, you knew he harbored evil intentions, yet you not only failed to stop him, but also helped him cover for himself and obstructed my Xiaoyan. After I deal with him, I will deal with you as well."

This time is completely different from the previous situation where Lizhu only climbed over Hao Yu's wall. Although everyone knew that Lizhu and his mother had no good intentions, he had only climbed over the wall and hadn't had time to climb over into the yard.

If he shamelessly tries to justify himself by saying that he just wanted to climb over the wall for fun, Chen Lizheng and Jiang Yuan wouldn't be able to immediately accuse him of being guilty.

That's why Chen Lizheng only gave him and his mother a good scolding back then.

Now, Wang Sanhu has already run into Hao Yu's house. Moreover, after being discovered, he not only did not run away immediately, but also became lustful and tried to force Xie Wanniang to have sex with him.

Given the egregious nature of the crime and the fact that he was caught red-handed, no matter what the Wang family says next, Chen Lizheng will still deal with Wang Sanhu according to the rules. Otherwise, who knows how badly the village's atmosphere will deteriorate in the future.

When the Wang family heard Chen Lizheng directly convict them, they panicked even more. They tried to defend their actions, but Chen Lizheng didn't want to listen anymore.

He spoke up decisively before the Wang family could, saying, "If you feel that I, as the village head, have acted unfairly, I can invite all the village elders here. If you are still not satisfied, I can send you directly to the county government and ask the magistrate to make a judgment according to the law."

Upon hearing the village headman say they would be sent to the yamen (government office), the Wang family immediately shut up. They hadn't even considered asking the village elders; which of those village elders didn't have a granddaughter-to-be or a newlywed granddaughter-in-law?

Those people are practically buried to the neck; they've seen it all, and their hearts are far more ruthless than Chen's. If we really invite them over, they'll start arguing back and forth, and their whole family will definitely be severely punished.
