Chapter 1732: I’ll Make Sure You Never Walk Again
Bai Yiqiao was stunned and looked at Fang Yong incredulously. She was being bullied right now. Her husband should be protecting her, but instead, he was protecting Chen Ermei.
Did the two of them have a secret relationship?
“Fang Yong, you…” Bai Yiqiao turned around and left. Since Bai Yiqiao’s rebirth, she had cherished Fang Yong, supported him, and always put him first, but this was the kind of treatment she got in return.
Fang Yong furrowed his brows and said fiercely to Li Gouzi, “If you dare continue to cause trouble, I’ll make you pay.”
“I’m not kidding. If Yiqiao gets involved in this quarrel again, there’s no way I’ll let you off.”
After he said that, Fang Yong chased after Bai Yiqiao.
“Who’s scared of you?” As soon as Fang Yong left, Li Gouzi immediately became cocky. He turned towards Ning Shu and said, “When it comes to you, I…”
Ning Shu picked up the broom and hit Li Gouzi hard. “If you say one more word, I’ll make sure you never walk again.”
During this time, Father Chen and Chen Li had come back from work. When they saw so many people surrounding their house, they rushed back in a hurry and saw Ning Shu chasing after Li Gouzi. Without a second thought, Chen Li lifted his hoe over his shoulders and swung it towards Li Gouzi. Li Gouzi was scared out of his wits and quickly ran away.
The crowd of onlookers at the door gradually dispersed. Father Chen looked at Ning Shu with a heavy expression on his face. “Look at what you’ve done. As your father, how can I not be ashamed?”
“I’ll take care of this,” Ning Shu said.
“You’ll take care of this? How will you take care of it when your reputation is already ruined?” Father Chen looked irritated. “Can’t you act with a little more self-respect? Li Gouzi didn’t come here looking for anybody else, he came looking for you.”
Ning Shu coldly said, “Then I won’t get married.”
“Is it up to you whether you’ll get married or not?” Father Chen fiercely struck the table with his pipe. “Have you considered this? Your father is already very old, do you still want me to squat in jail?”
“If you don’t get married by the time you’re seventeen, I might as well go to jail.”
Ning Shu sighed inwardly. She forgot that in ancient times if a woman was not married off by the time she turned 17, her parents were at fault. If a man did not take a wife by the time he turned 20, the woman’s parents were still guilty! This was the moral standard in a feudal society where men were worshiped, but women were neglected.
This was the cause of the severe patriarchy in ancient times. Having a daughter was basically throwing money down the drain. And if a daughter couldn’t be married off, the parents were the ones who carried the blame.
Fuck, it would be better to just destroy this kind of world.
The more Father Chen talked, the angrier he became. He raised his hand at Ning Shu to hit her, but Ning Shu dodged his hit.
“Father, don’t hit her. Li Gouzi is the one pestering Little Sister,” Chen Li defended Ning Shu. “Even if you beat her to death, it won’t make any difference.”
“She’s really a money pit. A really worrying money pit.” Father Chen continued to nag, but didn’t try to hit Ning Shu again.
After dinner, Ning Shu washed the dishes. Once she was done, Ning Shu returned to her room, sat cross-legged on the bed, and began practicing the Unsurpassable Martial Arts.
Because the air was cleaner and spiritual energy was more abundant in ancient times, Ning Shu cultivated a lot of energy within three days.
On that day, Li Gouzi showed up to cause trouble. Ning Shu planned to give Li Gouzi what he was due for. Bai Yiqiao was trying every means possible to get her involved with Li Gouzi, so Ning Shu planned to give her a taste of her own medicine.
Even if Bai Yiqiao was cautious of Chen Ermei, why did she have to scheme against Chen Ermei and tie Chen Ermei and Li Gouzi together?
It was as good as driving Chen Ermei to her death. In her past life, Bai Yiqiao was the one who broke off her own engagement. When had Chen Ermei done anything to Bai Yiqiao that would warrant this kind of treatment in their current lives?
