Chapter 169 - 169 Causes
169 Causes
The Jin family’s wife, surrounded by people in front and behind, came late.
Her face darkened immediately when she saw the courtyard guards and the broken gate in the front yard.
“Where is this shrew from? How dare you make trouble in my Jin family? I’ll take her down and send her to the magistrate’s office so that the magistrate can do justice to the Jin family!”
“I also want to ask if the Jin family can do whatever they want. They were not only forcing me to come to the Jin family, but they also scolded and beat me as soon as I walked through the door. This is the way an educated family treats its guests? This is something new.”
Zhao Chuchu met Mrs. Jin’s gloomy gaze with an indifferent expression.
“You shrew, you’ve hurt my Jin family’s subordinate, and you blame us for it. You’re just being rude now.”
“Mrs. Jin, you ordered your men people to humiliate me in every way, and you confuse right and wrong!”
“You…”
Mrs. Jin was so angry that she fell backward.
Her husband was a successful candidate. Even the county magistrate was courteous around him. She was a dignified person in Yuanjiang County. No one dared to disrespect her.
But now she was scolded by a small village girl pointing at her. How was she going to just let that go?
Madam Luo was afraid that this matter would not end well, so she quietly advised Zhao Chuchu not to make too much of a fuss.
The other party was a successful candidate in the imperial examinations at the provincial level and already qualified to be an official, so it was better not to make too much trouble with them.
But in Zhao Chuchu’s dictionary, there was no such word as forbearance.
Especially after surviving in the last world for so long. Just six months after rebirth was not enough to change her temper at all. In that cannibalistic world, tolerance meant death!
The Jin family condoned their underlings to treating her like this. It wouldn’t be Zhao Chuchu if she just tolerated it and did nothing.
“I’ve always been reasonable, but when I meet someone unreasonable, I can only use my fists to talk to them! Mrs. Jin, I have no hatred for you, yet you let your subordinates humiliate me in every way.
Zhao Chuchu spat out words like ice and looked at Mrs. Jin with extra cold eyes.
“Today, the Jin family treats me like this, the Zhang family would do the same tomorrow, and then it would be the Li four family following your examples… Do I owe you guys or something? Since you are asking me for a favor, then show the attitude of someone asking for a favor, don’t be condescending! Your family has a scholar, people who do not know also think that your family has a bully, so rude and unreasonable, simply degrading.”
Mrs. Jin’s face was dark. “Bitch, shut up. Who are you to curse here? Let me tell you, the old man of our family is still a scholar. He has merit. And you? You’re just a blind scholar’s wife who thinks she’s a scholar! “”
“I’m telling you, if you don’t kneel and apologize to the Jin family in front of the neighbors today, I will definitely not let this go so easily. It would be easy to take care of a puny scholar. Zhao Chuchu, don’t think too highly of yourself just because you have good medicine skills.”
“It’s true, I can live if I don’t pass the exam, but you will die if you are sick and no one treats you!” Zhao Chuchu snickered. “Since Mrs. Jin has such a big mouth, then I also put the words here, from now on, you’d better pray that people of the Jin family will be healthy from now on. I hope you won’t need to come and beg me.”
“You dare to threaten me?”
“Just telling the truth. Can’t you stand it, Mrs. Jin? That’s not good. Many things can upset you in the future!”
“Bitch…”
Slap!
Zhao Chuchu picked up a shoe on the ground and kicked it over. It landed right on Mrs. Jin’s face.
She hated it when people called her a bitch at every turn!
The Jin family had been looking for trouble from the beginning.
Mrs. Jin covered her hot face and looked at Zhao Chuchu incredulously. “How dare you hit me?”
“It’s to remind you not to have such a dirty mouth, lest word gets out and let people know that Scholar Jin has such a wife who calls other people sluts all the time. It’s an insult to Scholar Jin.” Zhao Chuchu clasped her hands to her chest.
Mrs. Jin was furious.
“Take that little bitch down, strip her naked, and throw her out on the streets, so that people know she is a bitch who can be any man’s wife. She came to my house for a good reason to make trouble. Didn’t she want to seduce Scholar Jin? I think I know what bitches like you are up to,” she cursed.
Her dignity and manners no longer existed. She was just like a shrew.
The mothers and maids swarmed over her.
Madam Luo’s face changed dramatically.
Zhao Chuchu shielded Madam Luo behind her.
“Auntie, now do you see how rude the Jin family is? They not only forced the doctor to come over to treat them, but they also kept humiliating the doctor, and now they want to force even the doctor to die. I ask myself that I have not offended the Jin family, but now it is the Jin family that wants my life,” Zhao Chuchu said very loudly.
The aggrieved tone of her voice made her sound very pitiful.
The neighbors who heard the sound and came to watch the scene all stretched their necks to look at the door and saw the Jin family’s servants pouncing on Zhao Chuchu.
At the same time, the sound of neat and mighty footsteps came running towards the Jin family.
The people outside took a look. It was actually the people from Thousand Battalion.
And the leader on horseback was none other than General Gan.
“Stop. What are you doing?” When Gan Maosheng reached the door, he turned around, dismounted from his horse, and entered with a stern voice. “How dare people of the Jin family bully others in broad daylight?”
When Mrs. Jin saw that it was Gan Maosheng, her face changed dramatically.
But she thought highly of herself because her husband was a scholar, so she didn’t really see Gan Maosheng as an equal.
She snorted coldly. “General Gan, you’re here just in time to see how your good daughter-in-law brought a shrew to my Jin family to cause trouble. And hurt so many people in the Jin family! If you don’t give me an explanation, I’ll have to ask my husband to find someone to get justice!”
After looking at Zhao Chuchu to ensure she hadn’t suffered any losses, he looked coldly at Mrs. Jin. “Mrs. Jin, your words really don’t make sense, your subordinates are indeed bossy in my family, and I think they are even more so in the Jin family!
I would also like to ask Mr. Jin what kind of explanation I should get for the Jin family’s underlings coming to my Gan family and causing trouble. Mrs. Jin, don’t forget that Mrs. Xie is the one who is credited with quelling the plague. You are no match for the divine doctor!”
Gan Maosheng did not even give Mrs. Jin any face and just scolded her back.
There were countless scholars in the Wei Dynasty. This Jin guy was just one of them.
He was also more than fifty years old this year and had long lost the motivation to improve. He would meet friends or discuss life with his girlfriends all year round. It was impossible for him to go further!
But the divine doctor was different. Only one would appear after so many years! They were way more valuable than scholars.
As a general, Gan Maosheng felt he did not need to give the Jin family face.
Zhao Chuchu was his life-saving benefactor. No one was allowed to make Zhao Chuchu suffer in Yuanjiang County.
“Gan Maosheng, how dare you?” Mrs. Jin was furious, pointing at Gan Maosheng’s nose, and scolded, “You’re just a martial artist. You’re not even qualified to carry my husband’s shoes.”
