Xiao Jinli was in the field, planting vegetables, when she suddenly heard someone shout, “No good, Uncle Wanlin has been beaten up in Li Village.”
“What?” Xiao Jinli immediately stopped what she was doing, stepped out of the greenhouse and saw the village head and other villagers rushing out of the village.
Xiao Jinli asked, “Uncle Village Chief, I just heard someone say Uncle Wanlin was beaten in Li Village. What happened?”
Xiao Wanlin, who worked for her family and was her uncle, was a close relative.
The village head frowned slightly and said, “I’m not too clear on it either, I’m rushing to check it out.”
Xiao Jinli said, “Then I’m coming too!”
The village head shook his head and said, “Jinli, we will go and check it out first. You don’t need to get involved.”
Xiao Jinli shook her head, “No, I’m worried about my uncle. I want to go and
The village head sighed lightly and said, “All right.”
Everyone got in the car, and Xiao Qingshan drove straight to Li Village.
Upon arriving at Li Village, they rushed to the scene of the incident after asking for the location.
Upon arrival, they saw a large crowd gathered, and from a distance, they could hear the argument going on there.
“Li Dayou, don’t you go too far! On what grounds do you resort to violence?” the village chief scolded loudly, “The combine harvester did not pass through your field nor damaged anything of yours, what are you raging about now?”
“Indeed. Li Dayou, you’ve been blocking the machine from passing through your field. It passed through Li Dashan’s field instead, so why are you so angry?” One of the villagers tried to mediate, “Not to mention, you attacked someone out of the blue, which is wrong.”
Li Dayou spat out defiantly, “They initially said they would pass through my field and promised to give me fifty yuan. But now they passed through other routes, causing me a loss of fifty yuan. This is their fault.”
The villagers, ‘ .
The village chief’s face turned pale with anger, he pointed at Li Dayou and yelled, “You… You’re stirring up trouble! They never agreed to give you the fifty yuan from the start. What kind of loss are you talking about?”
Li Dayou insisted, “Hmph, if I say I lost fifty, then it’s fifty. Now if they don’t compensate me, Xiao Wanlin isn’t going to leave Li Village.”
The villagers from Xiao Family Village listened to Li Dayou’s words, their anger instantly boiling over.
The village head of Xiao Family Village strode forward, and said sternly, “I’d like to see how you plan to keep Wanlin from leaving Li Village.”
Xiao Jinli immediately spotted Xiao Wanlin, who had been beaten to the point of swelling and bruising. Anger surged in her eyes, and she walked over to Xiao Wanlin and asked, “Little Uncle, how are you? Are there injuries other than your face?”
Upon seeing Xiao Jinli, Xiao Wanlin asked, “Jinli, why are you here? Don’t worry about me, I just took a couple of unexpected hits to the face.”
Xiao Qingshan, suppressing his anger, asked, “Uncle Wanlin, why did he hit you?” pointing at Li Dayou.
Xiao Wanlin did not hide anything, “Initially the machine had to pass through his field. He requested for a compensation of fifty yuan before he would let the machine pass. I did not agree. Then, it passed through someone else’s field. After I finished harvesting today’s land, I was planning to go back after a short rest. Suddenly this man rushed at me and threw me a couple of punches. He said I owed him fifty yuan and refused to let me leave.”
“Are you out of your mind!” Xiao Qingshan roared at Li Dayou in rage, “Isn’t there a better way to profit? If you’re so desperate for money, why don’t you go rob a bank?”
