Lizhong, although old and less agile, was still much better off than the equally old and corpulent mber of the Hu family. Seeing her recklessly charging at him, he didn’t brace himself against her but rather stepped aside, feeling only regret that the broom he had swung hadn’t struck the face of that beast, Zhang Ming.
The mber of the Hu family wasn’t so lucky. Her brute force failing to hit its target, she fell straight toward the ground, making intimate contact with the cold, hard floor with a "thump" that made the onlookers wince with empathic pain.
"Good heavens, brawling in the street, is there no law left! This old woman only wished to bring her daughter-in-law ho for a family reunion, but that wretched scoundrel just would not allow it, wuuu, my life is so miserable——"
The mber of the Hu family simply lay on the ground, refusing to get up, weeping and lanting her grievances with a face awash in tears, which indeed looked pitiable to so extent.
The more the onlookers pointed and gossiped about her, the louder her wailing grew, and hearing so criticize Lizhong for not letting go of his daughter, her heart blossod with joy.
Lizhong watched with cold indifference as the mber of the Hu family put on a show, paying her no mind. He walked straight to the back of the crowd, pulled out the hiding Zhang Ming, and looking at the welts the broom had left on his face, felt waves of satisfaction and an urge to strike him a few more tis.
"Hurry up and take your shaless father and mother out of here, or don’t bla for beating her too! And you, you shaless wretch, since you couldn’t control your lower half and ran off to dally with a young widow, even divorcing my daughter, don’t co here now posing as a saint. I won’t fall for your act! If you dare make trouble again, I’ll take a knife to your house and butcher your whole despicable family, sparing myself from your vile disgust."
"Father-in-law, please, don’t, don’t be like this." Hearing Lizhong’s murderous words and seeing his eyes filled with lethal intent, Zhang Ming turned pale, stamring: "I, I just wanted, wanted to take Xiu Er, Xiu Er back ho."
Upon hearing this, Lizhong grew even angrier and punched Zhang Ming hard in the stomach: "Xiu Er was divorced by you and has nothing to do with the Zhang family anymore. If you dare spout nonsense again, I’ll kill you right now. I’d rather pay with my life than listen to you."
Just a mont ago, he truly had entertained thoughts of killing. If this family clung to them like a stubborn plaster, he would, for the sake of his daughter and granddaughter’s peaceful life, definitely kill them once and for all.
Struck with pain in his abdon, Zhang Ming curled up, his already pale face turning even whiter.
"Don’t think I’m joking, push too far and I’ll take your family’s lives! Get lost now, and don’t co back!"
As Lizhong spoke, he kicked him fiercely. Toward this man, controlled by his own mother and both cowardly and incompetent, Lizhong felt repulsion even to glance at him. He cursed himself for being blinded in the past to settle his daughter with such a good-for-nothing.
"Father-in-law, stop, stop hitting !"
This lesson instilled a deep-seated fear of Lizhong in Zhang Ming, who quickly wriggled free of Lizhong’s grasp and stumbled over to lift up the Hu family mber, all while Lizhong’s nacing glare followed him.
"No, I won’t leave, I want to take my daughter-in-law back, I want to take my daughter-in-law back, you unfilial son let go of , I won’t leave——"
The mber of the Hu family, her goal unachieved, was not prepared to leave willingly! She shrilly demanded Zhang Ming let her go, but Zhang Ming, thoroughly intimidated by Lizhong, mysteriously found the strength to drag her away all in one go.
