I Got Rich in Period Fiction-Chapter 115 Qiao Qingyu’s Persistence

Several minutes had passed, and faint cries and curses could be heard from the village.

Sun Dazhang’s face was beyond livid.

With a cold sneer, Qiao Qingyu pushed through the crowd and said to Uncle Qiao, "Uncle, let’s go to the county town."

Qiao Zhiyuan’s face also looked terrible, as he had no idea people were still speaking ill of her, considering these matters resolved long ago.

Little did he know, it had been over half a year and the first time Qingyu returned home, she was blocked at the village entrance. This was a direct affront to him, Qiao Zhiyuan.

Born in the Qiao Family Team, he had been here for more than fifty years, and to end up in such a situation, he might as well have jumped into the river.

As a man, he didn’t hold much hatred for a woman; it was mostly some gossipy old women, but today, he truly felt hatred towards these few women.

Sun Dazhang hurried over in just a few steps. Although he was a few years younger than Qiao Zhiyuan, he was also fifty-two this year. He grabbed the bicycle handlebar, his voice cracking, "Brother, Brother Qiao, please, for my sake, let’s wait. If these women show no repentance, I personally will take them to the county public security bureau."

At the same time, he angrily shouted to the militia captain behind him, "Take them all to the village entrance, these useless things, can’t even bring people along."

The militia captain, accompanied by two other militiamen, dashed towards the village.

As he ran, he felt pleased, usually noticing nothing. He always thought his own wife was aloof and a bit timid, but now he saw the benefit of that.

Getting involved with these kinds of people could bring no good.

Then, he witnessed the chaos at each household.

These old women had strong fighting spirits, just from this, he 100% believed that these people at the village entrance must have bullied Qiao Qingyu earlier.

It was truly outrageous.

It was none of their business. Initially, it was just watching the excitement and talking, but it had been over half a year and it was still not over.

Not to mention Brother Qiao, even he was incredibly angry. It was fortunate that Qiao Zhicai wasn’t in the village; if Old Qiao saw his daughter being bullied like this, he would have grabbed a kitchen knife and started slashing people.

Thus, these old women needed a lesson.

Sun Dazhang’s eyes were red with urgency, but Qiao Qingyu was not just trying to scare them.

Through this, it was apparent that the affair between her, He Xiuyu, and He Shan, as well as involving her mother, was no secret in these neighboring villages.

It had already become a topic of conversation.

So, even if they apologized to her, what use would it be?

Without accepting punishment, this matter would never end.

Qiao Qingyu stood in front of Sun Dazhang and softened her voice, "Uncle Sun, I know you have always looked after our family, and I’ve always respected you, but today’s incident absolutely cannot be overlooked. If they don’t pay the price for their words and actions, such an incident will happen again the next time I return to the Qiao Family Team. Even if they don’t speak directly, the rumors and slanders can still kill. If you think I’m reasonable, please don’t stop me."

Sun Dazhang felt a bit uncomfortable and also felt sorry for Qiao Qingyu. What would it have been like if, upon her return, the village had greeted her warmly?

But now it had turned into this mess.

The hands that held the handlebar slowly loosened.

At this moment, Sun Dazhang finally realized, Qiao Qingyu was not making empty threats. Having these people come to apologize to her, that wasn’t what she wanted at all!

Qiao Qingyu nodded to Sun Dazhang, then pulled Qiao Shengbao closer, "Take the bag back home. If Granny and Grandpa know about it, tell them the truth; if not, we’ll discuss it when we come back."

Qiao Shengbao nodded his head, then Uncle Qiao rode his bicycle and Qiao Qingyu sat on the back seat, quickly vanishing from everyone’s sight.

At that moment, Old Qiao and Granny Qiao were supporting each other, also rushing toward the entrance of the village.

The village wasn’t big but it wasn’t small either.

Such a matter, it had just been over half an hour, and it’d already spread everywhere.

At that time, the militia captain and his two subordinates were dragging the four women to the village entrance.

They were cursing all the way as they walked.

At that moment, Aunt Qiao suddenly rushed over from behind and grabbed Qiao Laos’ wife, who kept cursing obscenely, and slapped her hard twice, then she also burst into profanities.

"You foul-mouthed, rotten tongue, you’ll end up in the tongue-ripping hell when you die. What do you count for? Which elder’s seat are you taking? He Xiuyu is our family’s legitimate son-in-law, and our Qingyu’s marriage certificate is legitimate too. What about you? What were you doing when you followed Qiao Laos back then – don’t you know yourself, you rotten sock, and yet you have the face to talk about others?"

Qiao Laos’ face turned purplish, just like the eggplants in the field.

His first wife was sick and paralyzed; she hadn’t died yet when Qiao’s wife moved into his house, and as soon as his first wife passed, a banquet was immediately arranged.

That happened decades ago. Not many people knew about it. Both were grandparents now, with a bunch of grandchildren, and no one brought up the matter anymore.

But now, Aunt Qiao ruthlessly peeled off her face, naturally, Qiao’s wife, enraged by shame and being brought by militia, with Qiao Laos having slapped her, frantically sought Qiao Qingyu.

Cursing that she would definitely kill this little wretch, the village entrance was in chaos, sounding like a frying pan.

At that time, Sun Dazhang, instead, calmed down.

He stopped others, his cold gaze fixed on the three women.

Aunt Qiao, Second Aunt Li, Aunt Zhu.

Accountant Zhang’s wife also had a slap mark on her face, but she stayed quiet now.

Because Accountant Zhang had warned her, if she continued acting up, his position as accountant would be immediately stripped. Though Accountant Zhang’s wife didn’t usually throw her weight around in the village, she was respected everywhere she went. If the accountant position was taken away, she’d be nothing.

Although she was full of hatred and anger, she dared not make a sound.

Afterward, Old Qiao and Granny Qiao pulled Aunt Qiao over.

Old Qiao said, "Daughter-in-law of the eldest son, let’s not speak. The eldest son and Qingyu have gone to the police, right? Don’t worry, this is a new society; there must be a place that will hear us out. Let them curse, we won’t retort!"

Aunt Qiao glared fiercely at Qiao Laos’ wife.

What a dog thing.

People say even when hitting a dog, one should look at its master. Regardless, Qiao Qingyu was her niece, and usually, she got along well with Laos’ wife, but what was this today? They were clearly not putting her and Qiao Zhiyuan in their eyes.

Do they not realize what I am?

Qiao Laos’ wife, Zhao Daju, glowered resentfully at the group of Qiao Family members standing opposite.

The Old Qiao Family was prosperous, not a soul in the village dared to provoke them.

But Zhao Daju didn’t care at all.
