Chapter 89: A Terrible Ruckus And Chaos!
Chen Goudan had run wild since he was young, and was used to being independent. He was also smarter than average, so along the way, he thought out his plan before returning home with his younger sister.
When they got home, his eldest uncle and the entire Chen family were waiting for them.
Chen Honghua had already told her parents what had happened at the reservoir that day, how Chen Goudan had given all the fish and prawns he had caught to someone else. And it was meat too!
The brigade seldom had a chance like this all year, and he had actually given it to someone else.
He ate the food at home, but gave his meat to someone else. Such disloyalty must be punished.
On one hand, Chen Honghua’s heart ached over the fish and prawns. On the other hand, she detested Gu Qingyao. She was jealous of how well Mo Beihan treated Gu Qingyao. Now that Chen Goudan was becoming friendly with Gu Qingyao, she certainly would not let it pass!
So the moment Chen Goudan and his little sister reached home, they faced a vicious beating.
His eldest uncle, Chen Dagui, was especially brutal. He held a branch in his hand and used it to whip Chen Goudan.
“How dare you? You actually gave food to an outsider? You eat and drink in my household, but you dared to be disloyal? I’ll beat you to death!”
Frightened, Chen Goudan shielded his little sister in his arms. This was not the first time he was being beaten, but he hoped… it would be the last time!
The branch descended on his flesh, leaving a burning pain!
“Ah…”
An earth-shattering shriek caused Chen Dagui to jump in fright.
“Beast, why are you shouting? Are you trying to scare me to death?”
Chen Dagui was truly angry and he beat Chen Goudan even more viciously!
“Ah Ah…”
This time it was not Chen Goudan’s doing. Even Chen Xiaocao was screaming.
The two of them shrieked, each more pitiful than the other. Chen Dagui and his wife were frightened. But when they recovered their wits, they grew even angrier.
“Shut up. Why are you screaming! Beast, you deserve to be beaten. Shut up!”
“Ah Ah, Eldest Uncle, don’t kill me! I will never do it again! I will never eat your family’s food again. Ah ah ah…”
“Ah ah, save us! Eldest Uncle, please have mercy on my brother! Cao’er will never eat again. I’ll give my food to my younger cousin. Wu wu wu… I won’t eat anymore. Ah ah ah…”
They had cried and yelled before. They could not help but cry each time they were beaten, but later realized that the more they cried, the harder their Eldest Uncle beat them. In the end, they did not dare to cry anymore.
No matter how much it hurt, they just bore it grimly. Even if they cried, they only dared to weep softly.
But they had no such inhibitions today. They just screamed as loudly as they could. The louder the better.
The pitiful shrieks shocked the neighbors. It was not yet completely dark! Many of them were still awake. When they heard the noise, they ran out to see what was going on.
When Chen Dagui started beating them, his little son, who had just turned five, clapped his hands in delight. He clapped and shouted, “What fun, what fun!”
When he saw that his father was beating them severely, the boy also rushed forward. He wanted to join in the fun and hit them too.
Chen Goudan looked at this rotund younger cousin. Although he was a year younger than Chen Goudan’s little sister, he was much bigger. Chen Goudan thought of how the child often bullied his little sister, and also had no respect for himself, an older cousin.
He would not stoop to plotting against a child, but since this child was not afraid of this much older brother, he could guess how badly the child had bullied his younger sister.
Since they were making trouble anyway, Chen Goudan decided to do it thoroughly. So when the child rushed up to hit Chen Xiaocao, he secretly viciously pinched the child’s arm. The child immediately shrieked in pain.
“Ah…”
