Counting the time, Xiaoyu had been pregnant for three months and it had already begun to show. Li Yu looked at Xiaoyu’s slightly protruding stomach and smiled. “Don’t hold it in. I’ll get the kitchen to make you whatever you want to eat.”

“Yes!” Xiaoyu’s face was filled with a blissful smile. “Madam, Aunt Xue and the others said that the women in the village in the past still worked in the fields with big bellies. They didn’t see much oil and meat until they gave birth. I think I’m already very lucky compared to them.”

Li Yu had always liked Xiaoyu’s personality. She was kind and knew when to advance and retreat. She smiled and praised her. “Yes! Ruyi is a lucky woman to have married a good woman like you.”

Xiaoyu blushed. “Madam, I’m telling you the truth, but you’re teasing me again.”

Li Yu replied seriously, “I’m also telling the truth. I’m really not teasing you.” After saying that, the two of them laughed.

Ah Wei returned to Tian Zhong’s courtyard and walked around to the back courtyard wall. He looked at the eucalyptus tree outside the courtyard wall and rolled his eyes. He hugged the tree trunk and climbed up. He finally saw the situation in Tian Zhong’s backyard clearly.

He spotted a loyal-looking man in his thirties or forties who might be Tian Zhong, a shrewd-looking woman, and a burly-looking young man. There were also three backpacks filled with corn seedlings in the shade. A few people were busy digging the ground and planting corn with hoes.

Ah Wei looked at the corn in the courtyard and roared angrily, “Tian Zhong, you audacious thief. How dare you steal corn from my farmstead?” Ah Wei cursed and quickly slipped down the tree and ran towards the entrance of Tian Zhong’s courtyard.

“Which dog is scolding me?” Tian Zhong roared and looked around with his wife and son. He didn’t see anyone. Tian Zhong looked at Madam Wang and her son worriedly. “Oh no, they’re here. I heard that someone in their family is a high official in the government office. Are we in trouble?!”

Madam Wang snorted indifferently and pointed at the corn seedlings. “Didn’t you hear what I said? This is a precious thing. A knot can be sold for dozens of copper coins. If we were as timid as you, we wouldn’t have our current good days, right, Kuan?”

Tian Kuan replied, “That’s right, Father. We’ll definitely listen to Mother. Back then…” Before he could finish speaking, he heard the dogs in the front courtyard barking crazily. He could vaguely hear the sound of knocking on the courtyard door.

Tian Zhong and Madam Wang nimbly carried the backpacks and instructed in a low voice, “Ah Kuan, go to the front yard and take a look. I’ll hide the backpacks in the cellar.”

Tian Kuan rolled up his sleeves and ran towards the front yard. “Hurry up. I’ll go take a look. Which dog dares to come to my house to cause trouble?”

“Tian Zhong, come out quickly, you coward. Take out the corn seedlings that you stole from my house.” Ah Wei roared and kicked the courtyard door a few more times.

The villagers surrounded him and asked Ah Wei, “Ah Wei, what was stolen by the Tian family?”

Ah Wei was eloquent. “My corn seedlings were stolen by Tian Zhong’s family. I was just in the eucalyptus tree outside his backyard when I saw their family digging the ground to plant the corn seedlings they stole.”

A villager spat. “Tsk tsk… To think they wanedt to steal from your family. Your grandfather actually cured Tian Zhong’s waist pain.”

Tian Kuan was so angry that his face turned red when he heard the discussion outside. He took off the door chain and pulled open the courtyard door. He walked out and pointed at Ah Wei as he shouted, “Dog, which eye of yours saw my family steal your corn seedlings? How dare you spout nonsense here! You’re not allowed to surround my door. Get lost!” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Everyone dispersed awkwardly. Grandma Yang stood outside the fence door and saw Tian Kuan coming out. She said to her grandson, Yang Le, “Ah Le, Ah Wei is going to suffer. Hurry up and go to the farm to get Ah Wei’s family.”

“Ah!” Le agreed and quickly ran toward Li Yu’s family. Grandma Yang stood here and looked at the Tian family worriedly.

“Pfft! You’re the dog,” Ah Wei spat at him. “Your grandfather climbed up a tree and saw it with his own eyes. The corn seedlings are still in your backyard. You, your mother, and your father were just digging the ground and planting corn seedlings in the backyard. Can you swear that’s not the case!” “Who do you think you are? If you want me to swear, I’ll swear!”

“You’re a thing! That’s true! Your entire family is thieves who steal people’s corn!”

“I’ll beat you to death,” Tian Kuan was not as eloquent as Ah Wei. He raised his fist in anger and shouted as he hit Ah Wei. Ah Wei dodged to the side and kicked him in the leg. Tian Kuan staggered a few times. When he regained his balance, he turned around and pounced on Ah Wei. He picked him up and threw him to the ground. Ah Wei grabbed Tian Kuan’s bun with one hand and inserted the fingers of the other into his nostrils. He dug hard and blood flowed from Tian Kuan’s nose.

“Ah…” Tian Kuan let go of Ah Wei with a cry of pain and grabbed his hand. Ah Wei hung from Tian Kuan’s body and grabbed Tian Kuan’s hair tightly without letting go. Tian Kuan’s scalp hurt from Ah Wei’s grip. He bent down and punched Ah Wei in the back. Ah Wei groaned in pain and grabbed Tian Kuan’s hair to pull him to the ground. He kicked Tian Kuan’s chest. Tian Kuan bent over in pain and pounced at Ah Wei. Ah Wei let go of Tian Kuan and rolled on the ground. Tian Kuan reached out and grabbed Ah Wei’s clothes. The two of them tangled and fought.

Ruyi had just arrived at the entrance of the Yang family village when he met Le. Le panted and shouted at Ruyi, “Hu… they’re fighting. Hu… Hu… Your Ah Wei and Tian Kuan are fighting.”

Ruyi thought to himself that something bad must have happened. “Where’s Ah Wei? Take me there!”

“Over there.” Ah Le pointed into the village. Ruyi hugged Ah Le and placed him on his back before rushing towards Tian Kuan’s house.

Madam Wang and Tian Zhong hid the corn seedlings and ran out of the courtyard to see Tian Kuan fighting with Ah Wei. His face was covered in blood. “How dare you hit my son? I’ll beat you to death, you damn bastard.” Madam Wang rushed over and grabbed Ah Wei’s hair. She spread her fingers and scratched Ah Wei’s face. Ah Wei dodged, but Madam Wang opened a few bloody grooves on his neck. The mother and son pressed Ah Wei down and started fighting.

Ah Le did not dare to let the Tian family find out that he had brought him here. When he reached his door, he pointed at Tian Zhong’s house and said, “Uncle, put me down. Brother Ah Wei is in front.”

Ruyi put down Ah Le and saw that the villagers were watching from afar. No one went forward to stop the fight. Ruyi quickly arrived at the entrance of the Tian family’s house and saw a woman pulling Ah Wei’s hair. A man rained his fists on Ah Wei, who was lying on the ground, beating him until he could not fight back.

Ruyi stepped forward, grabbed Tian Kuan’s shoulder, and threw him out. Tian Kuan fell to the ground with a bang, raising a cloud of dust.

Madam Wang’s wrist was grabbed at lightning speed.. It was so painful that Madam Wang let go of Ah Wei’s hair and shouted, “Murder! Outsiders came to the Yang family village to commit murder…”
