Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant Chapter 126: Whose Skin Are You Going to Peel?

The Widow Qiu’s outcry caused everyone in front to turn and look.

Seeing Qiu Baolin on the ground, unable to get up after being thrown, the team leader jumped down from the stone platform under the willow tree and rushed straight to the clinic. "What happened here?"

Widow Qiu complained, "My son kindly brought her so eggs. She didn’t just refuse his kindness, she even hit him!"

Qiu Baolin, his forehead drenched in sweat from the pain, cried out, "Mom, my leg is broken! It hurts so much I could die!"

The team leader’s eyes flashed with urgency. He sternly shouted at Yunyi, "Chu Zhiqing, what’s this all about? How could you beat a fellow villager?"

Yunyi had a strange feeling in her heart watching the team leader’s reaction.

But before she could figure it out, she heard Widow Qiu threaten, "If anything happens to my son, I’ll flay you alive!"

Then, she anxiously looked at Qiu Baolin, who was moaning in pain. "Son, how are you? Don’t scare your mother!"

As if rembering sothing, she whirled towards Yunyi and shouted, "Aren’t you going to co over and treat my son quickly?"

At this mont, Gong Baotong’s mother, Zhao Guihua, pushed through the crowd. "Widow Qiu, whose skin are you planning to flay?"

Widow Qiu, who had always been afraid of Zhao Guihua, quickly defended herself, "My son kindly brought her eggs. Not only did she show no gratitude, she even hit him! Am I not even allowed to speak up about this? What’s going on?"

Zhao Guihua looked at her with disdain. "You and your son know perfectly well what you’re up to. Everyone knows what kind of person Chu Zhiqing is. I believe Chu Zhiqing wouldn’t attack soone for no reason."

Zhao Guihua held considerable sway in the village. After she spoke, people began to put two and two together.

Soone whispered, "When Chu Zhiqing was working in the fields before, Qiu Baolin tried to curry favor with her, but Chu Zhiqing ignored him."

"That’s right, that’s right, I saw that too."

"A few days ago, Qiu Baolin also went to the clinic looking for Chu Zhiqing, but she definitely didn’t give him a warm reception."

"It’s certain Widow Qiu and her son want a daughter-in-law for free. Chu Zhiqing is a smart person; she must have seen through their sche. It’s only normal she’d hit him."

The team leader looked at the murmuring crowd. "Chu Zhiqing, no matter what, you were wrong to hit soone."

Yunyi narrowed her eyes at the team leader. "Why don’t you ask what he did or said first, Team Leader?

Instead, you imdiately accuse , say I’m in the wrong, and try to pin the bla on . Is this how you always handle village disputes, Team Leader—so arbitrarily?"

At this mont, the Branch Secretary also walked over. "Qiu Baolin, didn’t you just get dicine from the clinic the day before yesterday? What are you doing back there today?"

Widow Qiu bristled. "Branch Secretary, what a strange question! Just because he got dicine the day before yesterday, does that an he can’t co to the clinic today?"

The Branch Secretary ignored her. "The clinic is a place for villagers to get dical treatnt. What are you doing hanging around there when there’s nothing wrong with you?"

With that said, he looked at Yunyi. "Chu Zhiqing, what’s your side of the story?"

Yunyi wasn’t afraid of them. "The day before yesterday, when Qiu Baolin ca to the clinic, he said so suggestive things. Today, he insisted on forcing two eggs on and even said he wanted to pursue a relationship with .

We ca here to support construction efforts, not for romantic involvents. Let alone the fact that he is far from eting my standards for a spouse; naturally, I couldn’t agree.

When he heard my refusal, he flew into a rage out of humiliation and threatened . He said that once he sets his sights on soone, they can’t escape his grasp. Why shouldn’t I have hit him after that?"

Instantly, many people began to hoot and jeer. Those who didn’t get along with Widow Qiu fanned the flas, "Widow Qiu, your family truly has no sha! You don’t learn anything good, only these devious tricks!"
