Hearing the shout, Chen Xia's back stiffened, and the farm tool in his hand loosened and fell to the ground in an instant.

Only then did she come to her senses and realize what she had just done. She actually beat her elders in front of so many people!

If this gets out, how can she get married?

Chen Xia started to panic when she thought that her actions might ruin her reputation. She turned around and looked at her mother pitifully.

Liu held her daughter-in-law's hand and walked up to the few people, panting.

She first glared at her granddaughter, then said to Chen Xia with a cold face: "Why don't you apologize to your uncle and aunt!"

Liu was also extremely upset. How could she be willing to let her precious granddaughter thank her hated illegitimate son?

But it was true that Xiao Xia wanted to beat her elder in front of so many villagers. If she got a reputation as a domineering person, how could she get married?

Chen Xia glared, "She's just a wild girl without rules, why should I give her..."

A slap hit Chen Xia's face. Liu said in a trembling voice, "How dare you be so stubborn!"

Chen Xia covered her face and looked at Liu in disbelief. Her grandmother actually beat her for this bastard?

She was so angry that her eyes turned red, she covered her face and turned around and ran home!

When Mrs. Liu saw her daughter being beaten, she was both angry and anxious.

Although she understood her mother-in-law's intention, it was her own flesh and blood after all, and she had not even touched it. But now she was slapped in the face because of the illegitimate son in front of her.

One can imagine the resentment in his heart.

She wanted to chase her daughter, but seeing her mother-in-law who was obviously very angry, she didn't dare to move an inch!

Liu clenched her trembling hands and tried to calm herself down. She forced a smile and said, "Xiao Xia is not sensible. I will ask her to apologize to you when we get back. As an elder, you should not bother with her!"

This sentence seemed to be an apology, but in fact every word revealed the intention of asking Chen Yunyou to make concessions.

Chen Yun pursed his lips and said, "I don't need her to apologize to me. I just want her to apologize to Xile and promise not to say bad things to Xile in the future!"

"Xi Le was already wronged by marrying me, and now Xiao Xia dares to ridicule her in front of me. Xi Le is also a young girl who is loved by her parents and brothers. Now that she is marrying me, does she deserve to be ridiculed by others?"

When he spoke excitedly, the corners of his eyes even turned slightly red. His frail body stood in front of Song Xile, as tall and majestic as a mountain.

He just stood there, defending his wife!

Song Xile stared at the young man as he straightened his back and sought justice for her.

In fact, she didn't care at all about the little girl's harmless sarcasm.

She was just acting, performing for the neighbors present. She was just showing weakness.

However, someone stood in front of her, blocking all humiliation for her and defending her reputation.

A warm feeling surged in my heart.

So this is what it feels like to be protected by someone. It feels so good to have someone protecting you!

She sniffed her sore nose and felt aches and pains in her heart.

Liu's tense face twitched as she tried to suppress the anger rising in her heart. "I'll go back and tell her to apologize to her aunt!"

Although Liu said this, she was filled with hatred in her heart.

Ever since this little bitch got married, she hasn't had a single happy day. She was scalded by boiling tea, forced to deliver chickens and food to her, and now she even beats her beloved granddaughter!

Even the obedient bastard in front of her dared to openly contradict her!

But no matter how unhappy she was, she could only choose to keep quiet.

She looked at the people standing in a circle and said to the couple, "Okay, you're tired after running around outside all day, go back and rest first!"

Then he changed the subject abruptly and said to the villagers who were watching: "I heard my old man say that he would replant some crops in a few days. If you are free, come and help!"

The villagers who were watching heard that there was work for them to do.

Most of the villagers expressed their willingness.

A few villagers also turned around and left.

Among them was the son of the patriarch of Chenjia Village, Chen Yunshan. After watching the farce of the Chen family, he went home with a smile on his face.

Zhao Shun from the Zhao family, after seeing Song Xile leaving, hurriedly chased after the two of them.

He handed over the basket of eggs in his hand, "Madam Third Young Master, these are sent by our old lady. Bring us some good luck!"

Then he scratched his head again in embarrassment, "Also, our old lady would like you to come and see our young lady tomorrow, is that convenient?"

Song Xile had always intended to make friends with the Zhao family, so he agreed without much thought.

Mrs. Lin had a difficult time yesterday, so logically she should have gone to see her today. However, after this farce, it is really not appropriate for her to go out today!

Otherwise it would be hard to explain her serious injury.

Whose seriously injured person has the energy to go out after seeing a doctor?

That's too eye-catching.

Because of what happened just now, Zhao Shun thought Song Xile would refuse.

After all, there were still too many eyes on her. In fact, it would be best for her to stay at home and not go out. However, her young mistress's situation was special, so he had to speak up.

Seeing that Song Xile agreed, Zhao Shun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, thinking that he must have a good talk with the old lady about what had just happened after returning.

He bowed to Song Xile again to express his gratitude, watched him enter the house, and then walked towards the Zhao family.

The two returned to their own courtyard, and Chen Yunyou closed the gate, temporarily isolating themselves from the noise outside.

"Xile, go and rest first. I'll go to the kitchen to cook!"

Song Xile, however, pulled Chen Yunyou with a gloomy expression and said, "Come into the house first. I have something to tell you!"

Chen Yunyou looked at his cold-faced wife with some trepidation. He walked into the house stiffly, and his hands hanging in his sleeves clenched into fists.

Song Xile sat down at the table, looked up at the boy with his back straight and said, "Sit down first, let's talk!"

Chen Yunyou was a little nervous. He thought his wife was unhappy about what happened today.

How could his family compare to his wife's family, where there were parents who loved her and brothers who were friendly to her.

"I'm sorry, it's my fault that you have suffered such injustice." After saying this, he lowered his head, looking ashamed to face his wife.

He was actually sensitive and was able to detect his wife's discord!

He likes her and wants to keep her, he is too lonely!

Perhaps it was God who showed mercy and sent her to him.

He didn't want his wife to become estranged from him and disappointed in him because of the dirty things happening around him.

Song Xile looked at the lost boy with his head down in surprise, unable to bear to see his awkward look.

Her originally stern face softened a little, and she said gently: "Yun You, I'm not angry because the other party scolded me or bullied me. I'm angry because you don't know how to cherish yourself!"

"If I hadn't pulled you back just now, were you really going to stand there and let Chen Xia hit you on the head?"
