Chapter 71: Chapter 071: Kicked into the Ditch_1
Zhou Yongxian is good, but after all, there’s a generation gap. She can’t always protect Nan Fei.
In the future, the one who will really interact with Nan Fei will be her mother-in-law, Yuan Xueshan.
Never mind! Never mind!
No matter how good Huo Beijiang is, he is ultimately not meant to be with Nan Fei.
“Ahh…I’ll fight you all!”
As a fight was about to break out, Zhou Yongxian could not stand by anymore and spoke up. “Everyone, stop!” Her voice wasn’t loud, but it was powerful and impossible to ignore.
...
All the people around quietened down and turned to look at her.
Zhou Yongxian was standing straighter than usual, with a serious face and imposing aura. Yuan Xueshan was instantly sober, while Huo Jinlan was so frightened that she hid behind Yuan Xueshan.
She had long suspected that this old lady was unusual. Otherwise, why would she have so much hidden money? Moreover, she seemed even more terrifying than her father who was a principal.
“Mother…” Yuan Xueshan trembled slightly, saying incredulously, “Why are you here?”
“Hehe…” Zhou Yongxian sneered, “If I wasn’t here today, wouldn’t I have missed your wonderful performance?”
“No… not like this!” Yuan Xueshan forced a smile, tugging at her dirty and wet clothes, saying, “Mother, you’ve seen what happened to me. The Jiang family is so unreasonable. This marriage is definitely off.”
“You dare to speak, you still dare to speak.” Zhou Yongxian was livid. Losing her cool, she picked up a stick from the ground and began to wave it around, beating Yuan Xueshan.
With each strike, Yuan Xueshan dodged in an undignified manner, not daring to push her mother-in-law.
Zhou Yongxian’s stick fell indiscriminately, landing several times on Huo Jinlan who was standing beside Yuan Xueshan, who was already in a state of extreme emotion due to being splashed with dishwater.
There was a flash of malice in her eyes as she dodged, and she gritted her teeth, wishing to push Zhou Yongxian in the chaos. Ideally, she could push this damned old lady to her death, so that there would be no one to oppose her in the future.
Then her brother would belong to her alone forever.
Since Nan Fei came out with Zhou Yongxian, she knew that the situation would end soon when she realised that Granny Huo had arrived. But she didn’t expect Granny Huo to personally swing her stick to hit people. Startled, she became more cautious.
She was afraid that in the noisy pushing and shoving, an accident would happen for which no one could be responsible. So she stayed close to Zhou Yongxian, keeping an eye on Huo Jinlan.
So the malicious intent in her eyes was fully caught by her. As Huo Jinlan tried to push Zhou Yongxian, she quickly struck out her foot and kicked.
Quick, ruthless and accurate, she didn’t hesitate.
Between the house of the Jiang family and the neighbor on the left was a gutter, a common sight in rural areas. The rainwater from the yard would flow out along the gutter. In ordinary times, the water from washing vegetables and dishes was also dumped into the gutter.
Although there was no suffocating foul smell, the water in the gutter had turned black over time, mixed with filthy, rotten wastes. Huo Jinlan had been standing not far from the gutter but she was kicked unguardedly by Nan Fei straight into the gutter.
She fell in entirely on the spot.
It even splashed a lot of dirty black water everywhere.
“Ah…” Huo Jinlan screamed in hysterics. Her whole body was splashed with foul water, covered head to toe in a grimy, stinking mess.
Everyone present was stunned.
