Chapter 770 - 771: Xiaxia Gets Scolded
Yang Lichun was no ordinary person, originally not getting along with Auntie Li, and now she was causing a scene. Regardless of Auntie Li’s injuries, just as Li Anshun was helping his mother up, Yang Lichun started violently shaking Auntie Li’s shoulders, shaking and questioning her at the same time.
Seeing the forceful shaking, Land Officer Yang was really afraid that she would shake the woman to death.
He quickly scolded her and had someone pull her away, but Yang Lichun’s mouth did not want to stop.
"You thieving old woman, you’re incorrigible! Even if you had your eyes on Yang Chuxia, you should have considered if she would ever look at you. You’ve been thinking about that little bit of silver all day, and you haven’t come up with much!"
"Enough, have you finished talking? That’s my mother." Li Anshun was filial, and at this moment, seeing his mother in such a state, how could he not feel heartache? Hearing Yang Lichun scolding non-stop, he became irritated.
Yang Lichun became annoyed when she heard him scold her, "If she wasn’t your mother, I would have hit her already. Why are you yelling at me? Why don’t you listen to the words she’s saying and the things she’s doing? Are these things a mother should say or do?"
"It’s still not something you can say." Li Anshun glared at her.
Seeing that the family was about to cause a scene outside again, Land Officer Yang scolded them, "What are you all arguing about? Go and ask Uncle Cai to take your mother home!"
When Yang Lichun heard that Uncle Cai was to be called, she grumbled, "Hmph, always causing trouble outside and making the family pay for medical expenses."
Ms. Li Junior kindly reminded her, "Lichun, Xiaxia has already given the medical expenses, pick them up."
Yang Lichun turned around and indeed saw two silver pieces on the ground. She hurriedly picked them up. Li Anshun wanted her to throw them away and not take the silver, but Yang Lichun refused. Yang Lichun had arrived a step too late to hear what Yang Chuxia had said, but Li Anshun had heard it all. His mother was clearly despised, how could he accept the silver with a good conscience?
Yet, at this point, Yang Lichun didn’t listen to him and made him very angry.
As Li family took their mother home, Land Officer Yang and others followed to check. According to Uncle Cai, although it looked scary, they were only superficial injuries. She had lost two teeth, but she would be fine after a while.
Hearing this, Land Officer Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Next, Land Officer Yang and his wife turned to the Yang Family, where Yang Chuxia was being detained by Ms. Wang and Yang Dachuan.
As soon as Land Officer Yang entered, his face fell.
"Look at how old you are now. When you were younger, you would often hit people, and I didn’t say much because those people really went too far. But look at you now, you’re married. How could you still not know what’s right or wrong, instructing people to hit others? I wonder if your reputation, Brother An’s, and your two younger brothers’ reputations will be affected. Brother An wants to obtain a chance at an official position, and the most important thing for people pursuing an official position is their reputation. Now, you and Brother An are family, and your actions directly affect him. Do you understand?"
Land Officer Yang was so angry, he felt suffocated. This child had been more and more spoiled.
"Grandfather, even if this incident spreads, it’s not my fault. Did you hear what she said? Were those human words?"
"Yes, her words were offensive, but you can’t just have someone hit her. You have to understand that the Yang Family is not the same as before. In the past, people would have said you were bold and fierce, which could affect your marriage prospects. But now, people will only say that the Yang Family bullies others with their power!"
