Chapter 775: 775 Fragrant Lotus Entwined 4
Liu Xianglian didn’t feel embarrassed either, “You go in first, I should call you older sister.”
“Really?” Su Qingyue replied ambiguously.
Seeing Liu Xianglian crying so pitifully, Li Wang, the wife of the neighboring hunter Li Yibao, who was on good terms with the Old Lady of the Zhu Family and did not like Su Qingyue and was jealous of the Xiao Family’s wealth, couldn’t wait for their misfortune. Li Wang said, “Wife of the Xiao Family, Yuchuan is a man of conscience. He’s looking out for you. Don’t make it difficult for him, let him marry Liu Xianglian.”
Wang Cuihua, who was in the crowd, became angry, “Aunt Li, that’s not right. What if your husband, Li Yibao, married another woman? Would you be happy then?”
Li Wang snorted, “It’s not about whether I’m happy or not. The Li Family can’t afford to feed another person. But it’s different for the Xiao Family, they’re the village’s money master. Even if they don’t work and rent out all the fields, they won’t run out of food or money. Who wouldn’t dare to marry into the family? Besides, Su Qingyue has been in the Xiao Family for so long but she hasn’t had a child.”
“It’s only been a few months, who can guarantee having a child so quickly?” Wang Cuihua said, “It’s way too early for you to start talking about this!”
“Who do you say is jumping the gun?” Li Wang was annoyed.
Wang Cuihua was not afraid of her, “I say you are!”
Su Qingyue looked gratefully at Cuihua, “Don’t bother yourself with Li Wang. I haven’t consummated my marriage with the Xiao Family’s men. Speaking of which, I couldn’t have a child even after half a year or even a year or two.”
Upon hearing her words, everyone present was shocked.
Li Wang said incredulously, “Wife of the Xiao Family, last time you said that the thing with Li Gui was a misunderstanding, and that you hadn’t consummated your marriage yet. How come you still haven’t after all this time? Is there something wrong with you?”
“Old hag, you’re the one with the problem!” Xiao Yuchuan glared at her, “Mind your own business about the Xiao Family’s affairs.” He glanced at Liu Xianglian, “You don’t have to pretend anymore. I’ve never touched or hit you. I can’t marry you either. Don’t loiter around the Xiao Family and try to force me to marry you. There’s no chance!”
He grabbed her arm and dragged her out.
Liu Xianglian refused to leave, crying and struggling as she was dragged, “Brother Chuan, you can’t treat me this way just because of Su Qingyue. Where have your words of liking me gone when you held me that night…”
At the sound of her words, Xiao Yuchuan became furious. He let go of her arm, raised his foot, and kicked her out of the courtyard door.
Her body flew five meters before it landed.
Although he wasn’t as skilled at kicking people as his wife, he was certainly strong.
Su Qingyue watched her third brother’s kicking motion, thinking it looked so familiar.
She recalled that she had once kicked Liu Zheng in the same way.
“Ah!” Liu Xianglian screamed, falling to the ground and vomiting a pool of blood.
Liu Zheng, who was lying on the ground, saw this and quickly jumped up, “Xiao Yuchuan, I’ll fight you to the death!”
Xiao Yuchuan raised his leg again and kicked Liu Zheng, sending her flying as well.
Liu Laoshi wasn’t too bad, but his wife was too domineering, so he just let her have her way. Seeing his daughter and wife suffer, he raised his fists and tried to fight Xiao Yuchuan, but he was much older and not as strong as Yuchuan. Unable to touch a single hair on him, he was instead punched several times and thrown out of the Xiao Family’s courtyard.
The villagers just watched the commotion without anyone intervening.
Liu Xianglian, vomiting blood and watching her mother and father being beaten by Brother Chuan, knew in her heart that he really didn’t care about her at all. She cried her heart out.
