Chapter 13 Pleading for Zhu

Moreover, the terrible wound on Chen Changan's head was still bleeding from time to time, his face was pale, and he looked like he was about to die soon.

Uncle Chen's third uncle immediately became angry, "You, the Liu family, are saying it nicely. My eldest son is about to lose his appearance and die. I, the Chen family, are just such a promising son. Just wait until you see the official!"

Not only Uncle Chen's third uncle was angry, but also some of the Chen clan members who were watching the excitement outside the door were also angry.

"Bah! Look at Liu Tongyin, does the expression on his face look remorseful? Isn't Uncle Liu just being sentimental?"

"Hey, you don't know, this is all family history. Didn't Liu Qiushi also have an affair with the widow back then... This Liu Tongyin is his and the widow's offspring..."

"I heard that the widow gave birth to a child and was thrown into the pond by the people of Xiayang Village. Now she still has a reputation for strict village customs. In fact, Liu Tongyin is the wife of a foreigner. Tell me, the Liu family actually has Such a shameful person is such a treasure."

"That is, even if you become an official in the future, if you are discovered by the imperial censor, shouldn't you say that you have not cultivated your personal ethics and have not been punished?"

"What are you talking about! A bunch of idiots! I am a scholar! My mother is Liu Mengshi! I am not a foreigner!"

These rumors immediately touched Liu Tongyin's sore spot. Originally, he wanted to be a quail and let his father and clan leader come forward to resolve the matter.

Anyway, he is a scholar, and he is the only scholar in the Liu family. The whole family will point their fingers at him from now on, fearing that they will not be able to protect him.

As for Zhu?

He never thought about protecting the Zhu family at all, he only valued Zhu's son Bao'er.

When the matter is revealed, the Zhu family will be submerged, and Bao'er will be brought home. Then he will marry a noble and wealthy woman to be Bao'er's mother. Everything will be perfect.

But when Chen Changan showed up like this, it was hard to tell whether the Chen family would really report it to the official. He was panicked and angry at the same time.

Why didn't you choose a bigger stone and smash this man to death?
  It's not that big of a deal if you smash him to death!
  I don't want to talk about it even more.

"Oh, you don't even recognize your own mother, that's unfilial."

"That's right, no matter what the widow is, she is still his mother. The Dameng family is not good to him, but she actually says that her own mother is the Dameng family. It's ridiculous."

Liu Tongyin was so angry that he was trembling, and his eyes suddenly turned to Chen Changan.

If Chen Changan dies, he will be the only scholar in Dading Village and the only hope of Dading Village!

When the time comes, not to mention the Liu family, even the resources of the Chen family will be tilted towards him!

Who will dare to say this then?
  Who dares to laugh at him!

Without anyone noticing, Liu Tongyin suddenly jumped in the direction of Chen Changan and grabbed Chen Changan's neck.

Screams and chaos broke out.

Chen Changan stopped pretending and took advantage of the chaos to kick Liu Tongyin's vital area before letting go of his hand on his neck.

Liu Tongyin was pulled away.

"Ahem..." Chen Changan was frightened for a while. Liu Tongyin's strength was so great that he was trying to kill him.

But in this case, he would have more reason to report to the officials to deal with Liu Tongyin.

"Originally, I thought, since we are both classmates and neighbors, if you are really in love with Mrs. Zhu, I will help you, but Brother Liu, you actually want to kill me!"

Chen Changan cupped his hands and said, "All my uncles and neighbors have seen it. When the time comes, I will report to the official and everyone will make the decision for me."

"No, no, no, nephew Chen Xian, it's this child who has been provoked. Don't report to the official. If you report to the official, he will be finished. No, the reputation of the whole village will be ruined. You still have two sisters. You don’t want them to be able to get married with such a reputation, right?”

Liu Qiushi was anxious and pulled Chen Changan to keep saying nice things.

Chen Changan's eyes darkened for a moment and he said nothing.

He knew that if things got serious, it would be bad for everyone. He could send Liu Tongyin to the Yamen, cancel his reputation as a scholar, and ruin his future. But according to Liu Tongyin's extreme temperament, I'm afraid he won't let it go, and if the time comes, the whole village and family members will be affected.

It’s just that the gain outweighs the loss.

Within a few breaths, Chen Changan had already made up his mind, but said nothing.

"Great nephew, as long as you don't report to the official position, I will make the decision and ask your Uncle Qiushi to compensate you for the land and money. Your family is not well-off. Your father died early, and your mother can't support you brothers and sisters by herself. not easy."

Patriarch Liu took the opportunity to talk to one side. Liu Qiushi was anxious. How could he still lose money?

Patriarch Liu glared at Liu Qiushi, and he wanted to slap Liu Qiushi in the bottom of his heart. When he was young, he had to worry about the troubles of Liu Qiushi's family, but now he still has to worry about Liu Qiushi's son.

This family is simply amazing!

But Liu Tongyin was a scholar after all, and it was considered an honor for the Liu family. In recent years, the family had benefited a lot from Liu Tongyin's reputation as a scholar.

Chen Changan lowered his eyes, "Uncle Liu family, I don't care about those external things, but brother Liu wants to kill me! But seeing that uncle Liu family is so old and has to work so hard, I just want to Grit your teeth and swallow.”

Then he stopped talking.

Uncle Chen San is dying of anxiety. This kid looks so aloof, why doesn't he know how to get some benefits for himself?
  It's in vain that he made such a fuss.

Obviously, Uncle Chen San also knew that Liu Tongyin could not be touched today.

"What do you think, nephew?" Patriarch Liu softened his attitude and was making comparisons in his mind. He found that comparing people to others was really irritating.

Looking at Liu Tongyin's appearance, as an elder, he has been running around for his affairs, so forget it without thanking him, but he still has a sullen face.

It’s really unbelievable!

Chen Changan raised his eyebrows, and first looked at Mrs. Zhu with a sad expression, "I thought I was in love with Mrs. Zhu, but today I found out that she only had to marry me in the first place, and even her son is not mine."

"I know how hard it is for her to run the family, and I don't want the family to sink her into the pond. Considering the past friendship, I thought it would be better to let Brother Liu accept her."

It was quiet inside and outside.

No one expected that Chen Changan would plead for Zhu, and even Zhu was surprised.

"How could I take such a woman as my concubine! Chen Chang'an, you want to harm me!" Liu Tongyin recovered from the pain, but when he heard this, he became excited again!

Zhu was stunned, "Concubine? Didn't you say before that you wanted to marry me as your wife?"

"Don't look at how many men you have slept with. Are you worthy of being the wife of a scholar?" Liu Tongyin spat.

"...Liu Laoer, you goddammit!" Zhu couldn't believe it. Liu Tongyin's sweet words before seemed to be in vain.

She is not reconciled!

Zhu rushed forward and scratched Liu Tongyin's face with one claw.

Chen Changan watched coldly from the side.

He didn't really plead for Zhu.

Mr. Zhu turned his originally harmonious family into a mess, and even abused his mother-in-law under the eyes of his brothers.

It can be seen that he is capable.

Such a capable person should be given a try by the Liu family.
