“Who brought this bastard here, spewing filth from his mouth?” The women working in the tofu shop, including Mrs. Wen, all came over upon hearing the tantrum. None of them were empty-handed. Rolling pins, shovels, hoes, there was even a fierce one holding a shiny kitchen knife.
“Where did this runt come from, daring to make a scene at our doorstep? Do you think this is some sort of dump? Seems like we’ll need to show you some color, so you’d understand the pecking order here!”
Mrs. Wen shouted: “Go, call for help at the door, find a few men with strong physique, and tie this guy up. Whoever he belongs to, fetch them here. We need to ask who didn’t shut their door and let their dog out to bark randomly.” Upon hearing her, Zhuang Qingsui ran out to call for help.
Tong Fei’ legs trembled in fright.
He grew up in this village and knew that the villagers were very protective of their own and did not welcome outsiders. If anyone responded to Zhuang Qingsui’s calls for help and he ended up getting beaten up, no one would blame the villagers. Instead, they might criticize him for causing trouble without provocation.
Even if the pavilion chief intervened, he would probably just reprimand a few words, make someone apologize, and offer him some compensation. However, that would not alleviate the pain from his physical injuries.
Tong Fei saw what was happening clearly and understood the situation. Seeing the direction things were heading, he stopped saying anything, turned around, quickly vanished.
“He truly got away with it, that bastard.” Mrs. Wen snorted coldly, putting down her rolling pin and saying to Zhuang Qingning: “It’s not that I’m criticizing you, but with a bastard like this, if he dares to act, you should kick him out. What’s there to be afraid of? You are just too nice!”
Zhuang Qingning chuckled helplessly and finally loosened her clenched fists.
She was not weak and didn’t intend to let Tong Fei beat her up. She had already clenched her fists, which were as large as sandbags, waiting for Tong Fei to approach so she could give him a taste of her sandbag-sized fist powered by her strength and agility.
But before Tong Fei could get close, Zhuang Mingliang stepped forward to block him, followed by Mrs. Wen and others standing up for her.
She did want to fight back, but it was never her turn to take action…
Zhuang Qingning felt somewhat aggrieved, but she couldn’t express it.
Nevertheless, she managed to squeeze out a smile, “Don’t worry, aunt, I know what to do in the future…”
While she was speaking, Zhuang Qingning sensed a slight movement in the air behind her.
Glancing sideways, she saw a small stone the size of a baby’s fist flying toward her.
Without thinking, she knew it must be Tong Fei. He felt humiliated and carried a grudge. But since he was no match for her, he decided to play dirty, hoping to make her suffer.
What a pity…
Zhuang Qingning’s eyes were calm as still water. With a skillful sidestep, she extended her hand, fluidly caught the stone and in the blink of an eye was at the doorway. She threw the stone, with all her strength, at Tong Fei who was hiding and sneaking around by the wall.
Tong Fei was originally hoping to see Zhuang Qingning cry out in pain, hoping to laugh at her misfortune. When he saw that Zhuang Qingning was unharmed and had a grim look on her face, he got a scare and turned to run.
But he had barely taken two steps when he felt a heavy blow on his head. Seeing stars, he fell to the ground.
