"Sister-in-law, don't go..." Song Ning wanted to stop Xiao Wang, but was still a step too late.

Xiao Wang rushed to Zhang Cuiju and raised her hand to let go, but Wan Baolu took the opportunity to grab her hand and refused to let go. He didn't expect that the hands of this country girl were quite tender, and he couldn't help but hold them in his hands and squeeze them.

He teased, "Hey! Why is this lady so angry?"

"You... let me go..." Xiao Wang was ashamed and angry to death because a stranger held her hand in public. She struggled hard for several times before she finally broke free. She quickly covered her face and ran back to the house crying.

The village head came over quickly, lowered his posture and apologized: "Master Wan, I am the village head of Shangtang Village. I don't know how my son has offended you. I am here to apologize to you. Now his legs have been broken by you, and he has learned his lesson. You are an important person, please show mercy and give my son a chance to live."

"That's what I mean. I'm not here to kill or burn anything." Wan Baolu waved his folding fan, looking nonchalant.

"My child's leg is injured and he needs to see a doctor. I beg you, Master Wan, to be flexible and not make things difficult for small people like us." The head of the village was afraid that the boy would continue to make things difficult for him, so he bowed deeply to him.

Wan Baolu shrugged and said, "Please go ahead. I'm just here to watch the fun."

"Thank you, Young Master Wan, thank you, Young Master Wan!" After receiving the other party's affirmative response, the village head nodded and thanked him repeatedly. As long as this gentleman did not make things difficult, everything would be easy.

Li Zai was leading a few young men to carry He Tiesheng out of the house, and Hang Shuheng followed far behind.

When he passed by Wan Baolu, he raised his eyebrows and stepped aside to make way for him. Seeing this, the village head kept thanking him: "Thank you, Master Wan. Thank you very much."

Wan Baolu enjoyed himself very much seeing these country folk bowing and nodding to him. However, when he saw Hang Shuheng at the back of the team, he was very unhappy that the man, who was obviously just a country scholar, did not take him seriously at all.

When several young men were about to lift He Tiesheng onto the carriage, Wan Baolu suddenly became malicious and stretched out his foot to trip one of them's heel. The young man was caught off guard and immediately lost his balance and fell forward.

The board he was holding slipped out of his hands and He Tiesheng fell off the board and fell heavily to the ground. His leg, which had been carefully bandaged and fixed, was injured again, causing him to scream loudly.

"what--"

"Husband..." Little Wang ran over crying and tried to help He Tiesheng up.

“Hahahahaha…Interesting, really interesting.”

Wan Baolu was very satisfied with his masterpiece and laughed unrestrainedly towards the sky.

"You, you, you..." This sudden change came, and the headman's old face turned red. He couldn't imagine that a person could be so bad. He pointed at Wan Baolu and was speechless for a while. He was so angry that he almost fell down.

"Old man, old man, don't scare me..." He Wangshi kept patting his chest to help him calm down, very anxious.

"Too bullying."

The young man who had just been tripped got up and roared, swinging his fist at Wan Baolu's face. However, before he could get close, the follower beside Wan Baolu grabbed the fist and kicked him to the ground.

Just as he was about to step forward and teach the young man a lesson, a fist came towards him. He was caught off guard and was hit hard in the face. He immediately saw stars and staggered back.

Hang Shu didn't give him time to react, he turned around and kicked him down. The other young men saw that Hang Shuheng, a scholar, was getting into a fight, so there was no reason for them to just stand by and watch.

"I've never seen such bullying before. Brothers, grab your weapons and beat him up..."

Several young men shared the same hatred for the enemy, so they swarmed over and grabbed whatever they could get their hands on, and started to greet Wan Baolu's follower.

"You guys are rebelling..."

Wan Baolu didn't expect that these peasants would dare to resist. Before he could finish his words, Hang Shuheng had already approached him, blocked him in front of the carriage, and lifted him up by the collar with one hand.

"What are you going to do? I'm telling you, if you dare to touch me, I'll make sure you don't get hurt."

Wan Baolu was born lustful, his body had long been hollowed out by sex. Without his followers, anyone could knock him down. Seeing the coldness in Hang Shuheng's eyes, he was actually a little scared. Unfortunately, he only brought one follower with him today. If these peasants got angry, he would be the one to suffer.

"If you do all the bad things, you will be punished by God. Why don't I take you away on behalf of God first?"

Hang Shuheng raised his fist and was about to strike down. The village head, who had finally recovered his breath, quickly stopped him: "Stop, Shuheng, stop now."

They could beat that follower if they wanted, he was just a servant. But if they beat the eldest young master of the Wan family, I'm afraid Shangtang Village would not have peace.

"Dad, they've bullied us right at our doorstep. They won't let us off anyway, so we might as well take advantage of the situation and beat them back." The young man who had just been tripped was He Chunsheng, the youngest son of the head of the village. He was very unconvinced when he heard his father trying to persuade them to make peace.

He picked up the stick and was about to hit Wan Baolu without hesitation. Seeing this, the village head quickly grabbed his hand to stop him.

"Stop, everyone stop..."

Then he went to persuade Hang Shuheng, and finally rescued Wan Baolu from Hang Shuheng.

"Master Wan, we have no grudges in the past or today, so why are you making things difficult for us? Today you hurt my son, and we beat up your servants, so we are even. Today we will not make things difficult for you and let you go. In the future, I hope you will not make things difficult for us in Shangtang Village again."

After Wan Baolu freed Hang Shuheng from his restraint, he began to speak harshly again, "You Shangtang Village are really great. I accept that I have fallen into your hands today. Let's wait and see, humph!"

When the conflict just happened, Zhang Cuiju was so scared that she hid in the carriage. Now that everything was fine, she came down tremblingly, "Master, are you okay? I was scared to death... Let the government arrest all these troublemakers later."
