Chapter 643: I Have a Witness (5)_1
The commotion over at the old Yang Family house eventually roused the village chief, the Lizheng, and others; there was just no helping it. Although the two families did not come to blows, they argued so fiercely it was irreconcilable.
The Wang Family, despite having more people, only had Lin Yue’e capable of quarreling. She alone couldn’t out-argue Yang Anshi, and Wang Sheng and his sons didn’t dare to get physical. After all, they were to become in-laws, and throwing punches would leave no room for reconciliation.
It must be said, in this regard, the three men shared an unspoken agreement.
The Yang Family also feared the ferocity of the Wang father and sons, always leaving room for negotiation even in their arguments.
No resolution could be reached no matter how much they argued.
Yang Rusong did not hide, but he was not one to quarrel; he merely stated that he had not touched Wang Baozhu, and it would disgrace his scholarly reputation. Yet Wang Baozhu looked at him with tearful eyes, "When you laid your hands on me, why didn’t you think it was beneath a scholar then?"
The onlookers immediately murmured in sympathy.
Every time Yang Mancang heard about troubles at the old Yang mansion, his head started throbbing—this family just couldn’t keep the peace. However, he couldn’t just ignore the situation.
"What’s happened now?" Yang Mancang asked with a look of helplessness.
"Village chief, you must stand up for my Treasure Bead..." As soon as Lin Yue’e saw Yang Mancang, she burst into tears, "Otherwise, my innocent girl won’t survive this..."
As soon as Lin Yue’e spoke up, the Yang Family also raised their voices, one side accusing the other of trying to swindle them, merely because they saw their grandson became a Scholar and wanted to latch onto their family.
Another claimed that the other party had ruined an innocent girl and refused to own up after the act.
