Northeast: My Absurd Woman

Chapter 224 Why are you asking God to swear an oath?

Yang Wuni never understood the principle of not offending officials.

At this moment, his hearing returned, and he grabbed a broom and went straight over to question Hu Xianfa.

"Hey! You old woman, you're really something else, daring to be so arrogant even towards the village chief."

It seems to me that your family doesn't want to stay in this village anymore?

I'll call you an idiot, a big moron, so what if you're a dazed moron?

The fact that I, the village chief, gave you gifts is because you benefited from Miao Yu's influence.

"The dog-urine moss grows on the imperial palace, yet it can't even see what its own existence is."

Hu Xianfa was the village chief, and he couldn't stand being humiliated like this. In a fit of anger, he forgot the purpose of his visit to deliver the gift.

He threw away the two large cigarettes from under his armpit and brought his face close to Yang Wuni's broom head.

Yang Wuni is fearless of death and prefers to take action rather than make a fuss.

Seeing that Hu Xianfa had moved within his reach, he suddenly raised the broom in his hand.

They aimed a blow at Hu Xianfa's big head.

Hu Xianfa, who never expected Yang Wuni to actually strike, was slapped so hard that half of his face broke out in a red rash, and one of his eyelids swelled up instantly.

"Damn it, you old hag, you're really going to hit me?"

Hu Xianfa touched his burning face, disregarding his status, and pounced on Yang Wuni.

Zhang Changyao, who had just realized what was happening, ran a few steps, hugged Yang Wuni, and turned around.

Hu Xianfa's fist slammed into Zhang Changyao's back with a loud "thud".

Zhang Changyao leaned forward in pain, gritting his teeth to keep quiet.

"Hey! Whose rotten pumpkin got out of control and rolled into our doorstep to cause trouble?"

"If you dare to hit my child, I'll risk my life for you!"

Yang Deshan, who had just returned from Wang Fenjiang's house, broke off a tree branch from the top of the wall and ran over.

He then proceeded to slam Hu Xianfa, who was about to hit Zhang Changyao, on the head with a flurry of blows.

Hu Xianfa covered his head and looked up. He didn't recognize Yang Deshan and didn't dare to fight him.

"Uncle, don't hit him, that's our village chief."

Zhang Changyao released Yang Wuni and went to snatch the tree branch from Yang Deshan's hand.

Seeing that Yang Wuni was alone, Hu Xianfa went over to hit her again to vent his anger.

Yang Wuni happened to be looking for him too, and the two of them "hit it off" and started fighting.

Hu Xianfa intended to slap Yang Wuni, but Yang Wuni dodged and then delivered a "Slanting Dragon Claw Hand".

Five neat, clean streaks of blood appeared on the back of Hu Xianfa's hand.

"Hey! You're pretty nimble, I'll kick you to death." Hu Xianfa raised his short leg and was about to kick Yang Wuni's shin.

Yang Wuni leaped through the air, cleared the gap, and with another wave of her hand, several more bloody welts appeared on Hu Xianfa's face.

"What the hell? I refuse to believe I can't beat you up, you little wench."

Hu Xianfa became even angrier and headbutted Yang Wuni's chest.

As if seizing an opportunity, Yang Wuni casually plucked the few remaining strands of Hu Xianfa's hair into her hand.

With a forceful backward shove, Hu Xianfa was reduced to a watermelon egg, completely devoid of any vegetation.

"Oh my god! My hair!"

Seeing Yang Wuni loosen her grip and her hair fly away in the wind, Hu Xianfa stomped his feet in heartache.

"Wu Ni, that's good enough."

Village Chief Hu, you'd better hurry up and leave. My wife is a crazy person; she gets excited whenever she sees a war.

"I can keep her under control now, but if she gets carried away and starts hitting you with a knife in a minute..."

"Zhang Changyao, let go of me. I haven't had enough. Let me gouge out his eyes and stomp on them."

Seeing that Hu Xianfa's eyes had turned red, Zhang Changyao quickly picked up Yang Wuni and ran back to the courtyard.

When Hu Xianfa heard Yang Wuni struggling and shouting, he knew that Zhang Changyao was not lying.

He picked up the cigarette from the ground, looked at the back of his hand, touched his neck, and finally walked away dejectedly, clutching his head.

"Changyao, I've noticed that our place has been like a roadside inn lately, with all sorts of people coming in!"

Yang Deshan entered the room with a frown, looking at Zhang Changyao with a troubled expression.

"Uncle, I don't know what's going on lately. In the past, even the mice in our house didn't want to come, for fear of starving to death."

Ever since I got married, there have been inexplicably more people around.

After the family separated and moved out on their own, things became more and more lively every day.

Zhang Changyao placed Yang Wuni on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), scratching his head and grinning foolishly.

"Uncle, there's nothing to be upset about. This is what a normal family does."

Previously, Zhang Changyao's family had two old bachelors, and his father's words were notoriously offensive.

Who would want to associate with someone who picks mud out of between their toes and uses it as salt?

Things are different now that Wu Ni is here. A home is only a home when a woman is there.

Yin and Yang are in harmony, husband and wife live together in harmony, and their energy field is similar to that of other families.

People naturally don't reject such families; they treat you as one of their own.

After Liao Zhi explained everything step by step, Zhang Changyao and Yang Deshan finally understood.

"Wu Ni, when you fight, watch your back. You even dared to hit our village chief. Don't you know that a local official is more powerful than a county official?"

We're under their jurisdiction; if they want to deal with us, it's as easy as lifting a finger.

Zhang Changyao held Yang Wuni's shoulders and spoke to her softly.

"Zhang Changyao, this whole thing started because you refused their cigarettes first."

He looks down on us, calls us stupid, so why won't he let me ask him?

He was fearless, sticking his head out for me to hit, why would I keep him alive if I didn't?

Yang Wuni turned her head away, refusing to listen to Zhang Changyao's reprimand.

"Wu Ni, I don't want his cigarettes. It's because I don't want to do Miao Yu a favor."

What was supposed to be a perfectly good thing was ruined by your sweeping action.

Looks like I'll have to buy some things and visit Village Chief Hu tomorrow to get this issue resolved.

Unable to persuade Yang Wuni, Zhang Changyao had no choice but to sit on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) and ponder a solution.

"Zhang Changyao, if you dare to buy anything to see that rolling landmine, I won't let you go home."

Didn't you hear what he said about Liao Zhi when he first arrived?

He said that Liao Zhi's father had committed a sin, and the retribution was now falling on Liao Zhi.

They also said that Liao Zhi would have to atone for his father's sins for the rest of his life, and that he deserved his bad luck.

And then...and said that Miao Yu only came to our house because of you, Zhang Changyao, and told Liao Zhi not to flatter himself.

The restaurant owner in town said he saw you and Miao Yu go home together.

They said they saw you coming out of Miao Yu's house, getting dressed as you walked.

As Yang Wuni spoke, her eyes reddened and tears rolled down her cheeks.

"Though the man has no intention of loving me, I am in love; beauty is a curse that comes with its own set of troubles; the spring breeze has no intention of caressing my face, how can my heart be stirred with affection?"

Liao Zhi spoke his mind appropriately, though he dared not say it directly, fearing that Yang Wuni would be hurt if she understood.

"Liao Zhi, it's not what you think. Nothing happened between me and Miao Yu."

I swear to God, if I, Zhang Changyao, ever wrong Yang Wuni, I will…

Before Zhang Changyao could finish speaking, Yang Wuni covered her mouth.

"Zhang Changyao, you didn't mind my big belly back then, and I won't doubt you now."

Why are you asking God to swear an oath? God doesn't owe us anything, so just let Him have some peace and quiet.

I have something serious to tell you now, so listen carefully.
