Chapter 224: Can’t Hit Men Like This
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
It was fine as long as An Jiuyue did not suffer a loss. They were really afraid she would be hurt at An Gouzi’s house. After all, she was in his territory. They did not know who would be the one to strike the other.
An Gouzi’s eyes widened.
What can I do to An her? I’m clearly the one beaten up! Look at my face! An Jiuyue gave me all these bruises. There must be bruises all over my body.
Does the Junior Officer think I can do anything to An Jiuyue? Can you not be so biased? I’m having a hard time too!
“Uncle Junior Officer, An Feng and the others said I beat An Gouzi to the point he can’t get out of bed. I was afraid something had happened, so I came to take a look. I hope people won’t report me to the county government.”!!
As she spoke, she glanced behind her.
“Uh…” An Gouzi was frightened by her gaze and took a step back.
“No, no. Don’t listen to Feng Zi and the others. I just stayed at home for a while longer. It’s not that I couldn’t get out of bed.”
He had no doubt that if he dared to say that he could not get out of bed now, An Jiuyue would really make that happen.
It was not like he had the habit of getting beaten up. He would rather chop firewood daily than be beaten up.
“Haha…” The Chief sneered.
Couldn’t get out of bed? He looks energetic though! It seems like I haven’t found someone who can cure An Gouzi.
He said coldly, “If you can’t get out of bed, you must be seriously ill. We can carry you to the straw shed.”
An Gouzi dared not refute. “I’ll chop wood. I’ll chop wood, okay?”
It’s all because I’m too unlucky that I provoked An Jiuyue! She’s a jinx no man dares to provoke!
Hmph! Her husband must have divorced her and even given up his children to her so she would leave because she is too scary!
However, he did not dare to say this out loud. An Jiuyue would kill him if he did!
“Chief, Uncle Junior Officer, I’ll be leaving if there’s nothing else. I still have a lot of things to do at home,” An Jiuyue said to them.
She automatically ignored everyone else behind them who were here to watch the show.
She finally understood that there was no need to be close to those who had nothing to do with her. Maintaining neutral terms was enough. She would exchange greetings with them if she met them, but she would not think about them otherwise.
“Yes, yes. You should go back.” The Chief nodded quickly and turned to the men behind him. “All of you are so free. If you have nothing to do, go home! Let’s go!”
Everyone began claiming they had something to do and turned to leave. Some glanced at An Jiuyue as if she had done something unforgivable.
An Clan Village’s reputation would be ruined if word got out that An Jiuyue hit a man. How could they tolerate her?
Even if she had saved them in the past, they could not delay their children’s marriage. Their children were born into good families and were different from An Jiuyue.
“Jiuyue, you can’t hit men like this next time. You’ll have to pay for it if you injure them,” one of the women could not resist lecturing An Jiuyue.
She had a few daughters at home. If no one wanted to marry them, who would she ask for betrothal gifts from in the future?
