Chapter 258: Wife and Husband

Translator: Lonelytree

When Xiao Zhengyang and his wife returned to the courtyard, they saw that the courtyard was filled with people. They were confused. Shouldn’t the villagers have gone back to rest? Why were they gathered in their courtyard instead?

Before they entered the courtyard, they heard a familiar voice say loudly, “I’ve already told you. I didn’t set the fire. Why don’t you believe ? Xiao Lingyu, you have no right to hold . I want to ho now. Tell them to let go.”

Mother Xiao understood everything imdiately. They had captured the culprit.

She imdiately ran into the courtyard angrily and stopped in front of Zhang Xiaolan. She pointed at Zhang Xiaolan and asked, “Well done, Zhang Xiaolan. So, you were the one who set the fire tonight! We have no grudges against you. Why did you do this?”

Zhang Xiaolan still stubbornly refused to admit anything.

She said loudly, “I told you. I didn’t set the fire. How many tis do I have to say it before you can hear clearly? I’m telling you, you are not going to pin this on !”

Zhang Xiaolan was no longer tied, but she was forced to sit on the stool by Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhang.

Xiao Lingyu sat on her special recliner. Gong Tianhao stood beside her.

Xiao Lingyu said with a faint smile, “Auntie Zhang, why are you so nervous? I have already told you. We will wait for the police to co and launch an investigation. If you really didn’t set the fire, I’ll go to your place tomorrow to make ands and give you 10,000 RMB as compensation for ntal and reputation damage. What do you think?”

10,000 RMB? That was a lot.

The villagers were very familiar with each other. Zhang Xiaolan was a person who liked to take advantage of others. Not to ntion 10,000 RMB, even if she could only get 10 RMB, she would sit here all night!

However...

“Why would I want your money?” Zhang Xiaolan suddenly beca very strong-willed. “I’m tired. I just want to go ho and sleep!”?When she said this, her heart was bleeding. She had just rejected 10,000! However, the prerequisite for getting that money was her innocence. She knew that she was not innocent.

Instantly, the other villagers knew what was going on. Zhang Xiaolan had exposed herself. She was probably the one who set fire to Xiao Lingyu’s strawberry field.

Xiao Lingyu said coldly, “Auntie Zhang, I’m really sorry. Before the police arrive, you will have to stay here. The police will decide if you’re guilty or not.”

Zhang Xiaolan was completely at a loss. She repeatedly said, “You’re accusing and slandering . Let go!”

At this mont, a villager sneered and said, “Auntie Zhang, the police will tell if you’re innocent or not. Your words have no aning.”

Not many people present dared to speak up for Zhang Xiaolan. After all, the result was too clear. Zhang Xiaolan was most likely the culprit. Why would they help the arsonist? That was inviting trouble.

When Zhang Xiaolan noticed that none of the villagers was speaking up for her and was instead watching the show, her heart gradually sank. Her heart was so heavy that she couldn’t breathe. It amplified her heartache. She needed to escape the courtyard urgently.

Zhang Xiaolan was flustered, afraid, and guilty at the sa ti. She pointed at everyone present and said loudly, “All of you are with Xiao Lingyu. You’re blaming to please her!”

When the villagers heard this, their faces turned ugly. They knew Zhang Xiaolan was throwing around accusations because she was panicked.

“Zhang Xiaolan, you did sothing wrong, and you’re trying to bla us for it?” The village chief was furious. “How could you say that we’re in cahoots with Xiao Lingyu? If we’re really on one side, that’s because we’re on the side that’s right, and you’re on the wrong side!”

“Village chief, you’re so right!” Soone imdiately echoed.

Zhang Xiaolan was so angry, but there was nothing she could do now.

At this mont, Zhang Xiaolan’s husband, Xiao Chengcai, rushed over.

Zhang Xiaolan’s husband, Xiao Chengcai, had the sa na as Xiao Jun’s father, Xiao Chengcai. However, their personalities couldn’t be more different.

Xiao Jun’s father was very reasonable, but he married an unreasonable wife. Thankfully, he never indulged his wife. Therefore, Chen Guaihua never had the courage to do anything out of line. The only thing bad thing Chen Guaihua did was to ‘borrow’ 300 from Xiao Lingyu and refuse to return it. Xiao Chengcai had to drag his wife and his family to apologize to Xiao Lingyu.

However, this Xiao Chengcai was different. He was a wife-slave. He was cowardly before his wife. He would never say anything against his wife. When his wife did anything wrong, he would always be there to comfort and coax her.

Zhang Xiaolan was so brave today because her actions were condoned by her husband.

Xiao Chengcai was thin and tall. There was not a single bit of flesh on his cheeks. His eyes were completely sunken, and he looked listless. He looked like a skeleton.

When he arrived, he raised his hand without saying a word and directly slapped Zhang Xiaolan’s face. The slap was resounding.

This caused everyone in the courtyard to be greatly shocked.

Xiao Chengcai scolded angrily, “You bitch!”

No one expected the cowardly man to co in to directly hit his wife. He even called her a bitch. It was like the man had changed overnight.

Zhang Xiaolan was also stunned by her husband’s slap.

She touched her face and asked in disbelief, “You dare to hit ? Xiao Chengcai, you useless man, you actually dare to hit ?”

Xiao Chengcai said coldly, “Not only that, but I also want to divorce you.”

“What?” Zhang Xiaolan was shocked, but soon, she was angry. She challenged Xiao Chengcai, “Xiao Chengcai, you useless thing, you dare to divorce ? Who gave you the courage to do that?”

“You’ve done sothing immoral, so of course, I’ll have to divorce you!” Xiao Chengcai said coldly.

“Ah! I’ll kill you first!” Zhang Xiaolan suddenly stood up and rushed toward Xiao Chengcai like the wind.

This was a matter between husband and wife, so Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhang didn’t stop her.

Seeing Zhang Xiaolan rush over to hit him, Xiao Chengcai suddenly took two steps back. Then, he nimbly grabbed Zhang Xiaolan’s arm and swung his hand at her face. He growled, “Bitch, I’ve put up with you for a long ti already. You call useless every day. If I’m so useless, where do Xiao Chun and Xiao Dong co from?

“Did you cheat on ? You complained that I couldn’t earn money and give you a good life. I gave you every penny I earned, but you still belittle like this. I... I’ve had enough.”

How much Xiao Chengcai loved Zhang Xiaolan in the past was how much he hated her now. All the bullying he had suffered exploded. He retaliated without holding back.

Zhang Xiaolan was a weak woman, so she was no match for her husband. Zhang Xiaolan cried out loudly as she was smacked, “Xiao Chengcai, you useless man. You only know how to beat up a woman. Why don’t you go and beat up those who have been bullying your wife? What kind of man are you?”

When Xiao Chengcai started to kick and punch his wife, the villagers had to stop him.

Xiao Chengcai kept punching and kicking her. “You’ve been calling useless, but how useful are you? You’re so smart that you actually have the guts to commit arson! If you implicate the rest of my family, I’ll beat you to death!”

He would really kill Zhang Xiaolan if he didn’t stop.

The village chief ca over and said, “Stop, Xiao Chengcai. Are you trying to kill her?”
