Lady Su's Revenge

Chapter 119 People from a Broker House Came?

“Bang!”

Suddenly, there was a bang in the courtyard, as if the courtyard door was kicked by someone. Although the old village head had lived long and had good self-restraint, he felt uneasy when he heard the sound in his son’s home.

“If you are curious about it, you may go downstairs to see what happens. I am used to staying alone and reading is fine for me. You don’t need to wait for the maps here.”

After Su Li reminded him, the old village head expressed his sorry and immediately rushed downstairs.

Walking to the first floor, the old village head saw the culprit who kicked the door. He looked slightly shocked. A small boy who was about ten years old standing in the doorway. The boy was in ragged clothes and seemed to have fought with someone before coming back.

The boy sniffed and screamed annoyedly, “Mom, the house is too stinky! Is it made by dad?”

Wang Li heard him and came out. She saw the boy and exclaimed immediately, “Ouch! My precious son, Zhuo! What did you do and why your clothes are ragged? Let me see whether you are injured or not.”

The boy was grouchy and he swung sleeves at once, which hit Wang Li’s face, and made her shouted for the pain. The boy said, “I’m fine! Let dad come out soon. He made the house too stinky. I’m going to give him a lesson!”

The old village head looked at his slovenly grandson who he had not seen for three years. He trembled with rage and couldn’t help but give Wang Li a slap.

“Slap!”

Wang Li was dull instantly. Looking at the old man, who was bullied casually in the past but now was like a raging lion, she couldn’t speak for a while.

“Whatever you do to me, that’s ok. But, how can you teach Zhuo like this?”

“You really let our Wang Family’s forefathers down!”

“I will let Dafu divorce you today!”

After Wang Li stared blankly for a moment, she finally reacted to scream with rage, “Old Cat, you dare to beat me! Damned Dafu, come out. My life is so bitter. Even your father dares to beat me. It’s rebellious!”

Wang Lizhuo also beat the old village head with her mother and he also abused, “Old Cat! You beat my mother. You beat my mother...”

Wang Dafu came out in panic and saw that his wife and her son were fighting with his father. He immediately tried to separate them. However, they didn’t listen to him. Wang Li and her son soon turn around to beat him.

Su Li watched them and shook her head repeatedly. She asked Fang Mu, Xiao Wu and others to stop them. Although she didn’t want to intermeddle their housework, the old village head was useful for her. If he couldn’t help her due to the fight, it would ruin her plan.

Fang Mu had cultivation, so, his strength was so great that he separated them who grappled with each other soon. The old village head’s lips were trembling. He panted and stared at Wang Li severely. Wang Dafu sighed as he covered his wounds with his hands.

Wang Lizhuo was bound to be injured in the fight. He didn’t feel it when he was fighting. After he was separated, he felt that his whole body ached. He cried loudly right away.

“What did I do!”

The old village head whined and went back to the room with the help of Xiaowu. The farce was over.

At dinner time, Su Li received the invitation of the Wang Family. After she went downstairs, she saw the family of three sitting at the table with a hearty meal on the table. Her eyes were lit. Then she came to sit down at the table calmly.

Wang Li affably smiled at once, “Thank you for visiting our village. These dishes are the specialties of our Dawang Village. I don’t know if you like them.”

“That’s ok, don’t treat me like that. I am also from a poor family. It doesn’t matter.”

Su Li said and picked up chopsticks. She took a piece of one specialty and ate slowly. Wang Li saw Su Li eating elegantly, so, she thought that Su Li was kidding before. She didn’t believe a poor family would teach children table manners.

Wang Lizhuo stared at Su Li. The girls of the village exposed to the weather by the river all day, so their skin was dark, and they didn’t have any good temperament. He never met such a beautiful sister like Su Li. In his eyes, Su Li’s every move was shining like a fairy in books.

“I haven’t introduced him to you. He is my son, Wang Lizhuo.”

Wang Li smiled and held one of Wang Lizhuo’s hand. “Even if he is little naughty, he is a student of the school in the town now and has learned a lot of poetry. Maybe you cannot compete with him!”

“Really? Then he must be a genius.”

Su Li faintly smiled to say and her expression didn’t change. Xiaowu and others standing by the door couldn’t help but to laugh inwardly. Wang Li dared to say anything.

At this moment, Wang Lizhuo suddenly stood up from his position and pointed at Su Li. He exclaimed to Wang Li, “Mom, I want to marry her!”

“Puff!”

Wang Dafu, who was drinking tea, was stunned immediately and he spit saliva on Wang Li’s face. Wang Li stared blankly at Wang Lizhuo who was just ten years old. Even Fang Mu and others standing outside the door couldn’t help but turn around and look into the room.

The whole room was strangely quiet.

Wang Lizhuo disgustedly looked at her mother’s face with saliva and said with dissatisfaction, “Why don’t you speak? Mom, don’t you say that you can pick off even the stars in the sky for me? You said that the females are honored if I like them. I like her. Make her marry me, will you?”

The cold sweat on Wang Li’s face flowed down instantly. She quickly covered Wang Lizhuo’s mouth and smiled obsequiously, “I’m sorry to surprise you. Zhuo is still young. Please take no offense at a child’s babble.”

Su Li slowly carried a bowl and took a sip of soup. She was still smiling but made Wang Li couldn’t stop chilling. Was this the imposing manner of a Miss from a large family?

It’s terrible!

“It is unapt to blame him.” Su Li put down the bowl and said with an indifferent tone, “But, I see too much today. It seems that your son’s upbringing needs to be improved...”

“Yes, yes, yes. You are right.” Wang Dafu immediately stood up as he held Wang Lizhuo who struggled constantly. He severely bowed to Su Li and said, “This boy dishonored our family. I’ll seriously discipline him. I’m really sorry!”

Su Li took the towel handed over by Mammy Li and wiped her mouth. She said, “Enjoy the meal. Excuse me.”

Then, she turned to go upstairs before the couple urged her to stay, as if she was the host, not Wang Dafu.

After Xiaowu and others followed Su Li to leave, there was only three of the Wang Family in the central room.

Wang Dafu panted heavily. There was no other moment than now that he wanted to kill his son so much. He dared to flirt with even a Miss of a large family from the Qinghe Town!

“A good son taught by you!”

Wang Dafu severely patted the table and finally revealed little manliness to say, “Now we not only lose the money but also will be investigated by the Su Family. What should we do?”

“Wang Dafu!”

Wang Li loosened her hand which covered her son’s hand and pointed at Wang Dafu’s inflamed eyes. She cursed again, “Damn it. You are bolder after the Old Cat came back. Do you blame me again? I will beat you to death!”

Wang Lizhuo looked at his parents who were fighting again and felt that he was completely ignored. Thus, he was so furious and swung a bench against their back. The couple were almost beaten to fall down. They bent over on the table with full of meals.

“Ouch!”

“My waist!”

Wang Li got up from the table. There were soup and vegetables all over her body. When she turned around and saw her son holding the bench with anger, she was so angry that her organs almost entangled together.

Her eyes were crimson. She pulled Wang Lizhuo and tore off his pants. She severely whipped him and cursed, “Damn it, you little beast! You even beat your mother! I usually care about you so much, but you are ungrateful and total forget it!!”

“Howl!!”

Wang Lizhuo cried loudly. Wang Dafu got up in a dilemma. He watched the scene and his mind was in a mess. He felt so exhausted.

If working as a village head here didn’t have an official’s salary, he wouldn’t stay at home for one moment.

...

Mammy Li heard wrangles happening constantly downstairs and was too upset to sleep. She could not help but get up and talk to Su Li who was sitting in meditation, “Miss, the Wang Family was too messy. We’d better move to the inn in the town.”

Su Li opened her eyes calmly. She said, “Here is desolate. There might be no inn. Let’s talk about it later after Fang yuan and others coming back.”

Mammy Li nodded. That’s right. She did not know where Master Fang Yuan and others were sent by the Miss. Why hadn’t they returned until now?

After midnight, the Wang Family was finally tired. The first floor was gradually silent.

Nothing happened all the night.

In the next morning, before Wang Dafu got up, a villager knocked at his door. After opening the door, he saw a woman who was the most meddlesome one in the village and felt weird. How could she come to his house so many times? And she usually had nothing to do.

“Village head!” The woman said happily, “There are guests coming to our Dawang Village, too!”

“What?”

Wang Dafu was dumbfounded. He was terrified only serving Miss Su. How could he do when another came?!

“It’s not what you think!”

The woman waved her hands and said, “They are not like the Miss who is from a large family coming to have fun. The group of people are from a broker house and want to buy children.”

Wang Dafu suddenly understood and then felt weird. He asked, “What are you doing here?”

He only had a precious son, Wang Lizhuo. Although the son was little blamed, he wouldn’t sell him.

“Hey! This time is not the same. I am here to remind you with full of good intentions!” The woman said with disappointment, “The boss of the broker house coming here this time is very extraordinary. The children who were sold to the broker house before were only worth a bag of food. However, they want to buy some learnt children this time. If your son can’t pass the test, they will not buy him even if you want to sell.”

“Is it true?” Wang Dafu was surprised and he said, “There are so many conditions for the broker house to buy children now?”

“In my opinion, people of the broker house coming this time have extraordinary background. They are not cheaters definitely! They are setting up a stall at the entrance of the village. They also said that you can get money even if you don’t sell your kid, and you can just send him for their test! It is such a good thing. How couldn’t I inform you?”

The woman made Wang Dafu want to have a try with his son. How couldn’t he take advantage of that. Besides, Wang Lizhuo was beaten by her mother yesterday and didn’t to go to school today. He would rather send him to there.

The woman left after talking to him. She took money from the broker house. The more people she noticed, the more money she took. Therefore, she worked so hard.

Although Wang Dafu had decided to send Wang Lizhuo there, he still needed to discuss with Wang Li.

“It’s a good thing! Send Zhuo soon!”

As soon as Wang Li heard that they could earn money, her eyes were lit. If she didn’t take advantages without cost, she wouldn’t be herself!

After discussing it, they carried Wang Lizhuo, who was still sleeping, to the entrance of the village.

When the Wang Family left, Fang Yuan and others finally came back the Dawang Village. They passed the entrance of the village and saw a group of people around. However, they went to Su Li’s residence directly and didn’t went there.

“According to your request, we bought all versions of maps in the nearby towns!”

On the second floor, Su Li and the old village head sat on opposite sides.

Fang Yuan stood in front of them and spread these new maps. Some of them were made of cloth, and some of them were made from rice paper. So, these maps were pricey.

When the old village head saw these maps, his eyelids were trembling. How much did they cost? It seemed that Su Li was rich and would truly build a yard in the nearby mountains.

“Gee, what kind of map is it?”

Looking at maps one by one, the old village head suddenly saw a map in which the mountains were completely different from the nearby hills. He could not help but ask in surprise. Fang Yuan recalled slightly and answered easily, “If I remember correctly, it should be robbed from the bandits in the nearby mountains on the way.”
