The Fat Wife of the 1980s Awakens
Chapter 90: Refusing to Show Weakness
Xu Xiaohua was lying on the ground. She couldn't help but frown when she heard this. She secretly regretted that if she had known this would happen, she wouldn't have caused trouble in the first place.
Xie Yi finally couldn't hold back his anger anymore and threw a heavy punch straight at the man's face. The wind from his fist was whistling and blood immediately spurted out from where the fist hit. The corner of the man's mouth cracked and blood dripped down his chin.
"Your whole family has teamed up to bully me, haven't you?"
The man roared angrily, rolled up his sleeves, and showed an attitude as if he was ready to compete with Xie Yi.
Seeing this, Xu Xiufang immediately opened her voice and shouted for help: "Hurry up, someone is beating me up! This person wants to take me away in the middle of the night and even physically assault me!"
As soon as she finished shouting, she pointed at the man and threatened: "If you really have the guts, don't even think about running away. I'm going to the city to call the police and see how you explain to your boss!"
The man's face suddenly changed when he heard this. He knew that Xu Xiufang even knew his background. He couldn't help but get nervous and asked in a trembling voice: "You...you dare?"
Xu Xiufang sneered and bluntly said, "Why not? Do you think you are so great just because you have someone behind you? It's nothing more than Zhou Xiaoyun sending you here. Tell her that even if a needle is lost in my house, it's Zhou Xiaoyun who is behind it. Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you hide in the city!"
The man was completely stunned when he heard this. He obviously didn't expect Xu Xiufang to directly bring up her employer, and he didn't expect that her employer's affairs would be made public like this.
This employer is so unreliable that he put himself in such an embarrassing situation.
As for whether it was Zhou Xiaoyun or Zhou Dayun, Xie Yi didn't care.
His attention was focused on the frightened children.
Since someone had frightened his babies, no matter who that person was, he had the responsibility and determination to make the other person pay the price.
The villagers held old flashlights with beams swaying in the night. They came in droves, their steps messy but hurried, accompanied by background music of noise and whispers. The tranquility of the village was instantly broken.
A trace of panic flashed across the man's brow. Seeing the crowd gathering more and more, the calculations in his mind turned rapidly like a revolving lantern - if he really fell into the hands of these angry villagers, not only would he lose face, but it would also be extremely difficult for him to make a living on this land in the future.
So, he decisively jumped onto the slightly shabby motorcycle, stepped on the accelerator hard, the exhaust pipe roared, the wheels kicked up dust, and he squeezed a way out in the dense crowd. Then, like an arrow from a bow, he disappeared into the end of the night.
Xu Xiufang stood where she was and clapped her hands gently, seeming to be quite satisfied with this sudden turn of events, with a smile of victory on her lips.
"It seems that sometimes appropriate toughness is more effective than any rhetoric."
She talked to herself, with a firm and cold look in her eyes.
She forbeared during the day not because she was afraid, but because she took into account the special season, Xie Yi was not at home, and the village was in the busy farming season, and the able-bodied men in every household would stay at home leisurely in the afternoon.
Therefore, she chose to deal with the man and wait patiently until night fell and Xie Yi returned home. Only then did she have the strength to rely on and dare to give it a try.
Faced with Xie Yi's furrowed brows and the anger that was hard to conceal in his tone, Xu Xiufang did not back down. Instead, she looked straight into her husband's eyes with an expression of displeasure.
"What can I do? I can only give him a taste of his own medicine. He is trying to trick me with bad intentions. Should I just sit there and wait for death without teaching him a lesson?"
When the villagers around saw this scene, they roughly understood what was going on between the young couple. Since it had nothing to do with them, they all went away with their heads shaking, just to watch the fun, and returned home.
On the side, Xu Xiaohua quickly pulled the three children aside, trying to use gentle words to prevent the dispute from escalating further.
However, her persuasion did not work.
In desperation, Xu Xiaohua could only take the children to dinner first, and then carefully arranged for them to take a bath after dinner. Finally, she chose to lead the children to take shelter in the room.
Disputes between couples are often just emotional releases, and there is no need for outsiders to intervene. They quarrel at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed.
Xie Yi's face was terribly gloomy, trying to intimidate his wife.
However, Xu Xiufang is no longer the submissive girl she was when she first arrived.
"Who are you showing this face to? I did nothing wrong. Facing provocation, I just took appropriate measures to respond. What's wrong with that?"
Her words were full of confidence and self-righteousness.
Hearing this, Xie Yi felt like the rage in his heart was about to burst out of his chest. He suppressed his anger and tried his best to stay rational.
"You may have the upper hand today, but what about in the future? If the other party is a desperate criminal who does things without regard for the consequences and even lurks at your doorstep, if something happens to the children, can you afford the consequences?"
In this era of information closure and weak network security awareness, any risk may approach silently. Thinking of this, Xie Yi couldn't help but feel a chill.
Xu Xiufang was actually a little nervous in her heart, but she still refused to show weakness and her tone was full of stubbornness.
"How could I possibly allow the children to come to harm as long as they were within my sight?"
However, Xie Yi's words hit the nail on the head again, "Individual power is ultimately limited, not to mention that this is the busiest time in the village. What if you do this and attract more attention, and our whole family is in danger?"
"You have to understand that some money can be earned and some cannot be earned. If an unforeseen disaster really happens, none of us can afford the consequences."
Although Xie Yi's voice was calm, every word was weighty. He continued, "We are partners. When we encounter problems, we should discuss together and develop a reasonable strategy."
……
Xie Yi talked about various principles in an endless stream like reciting scriptures. Xu Xiufang understood every point and every sentence, but at this moment, her attention had shifted to how to deal with subsequent matters. She felt annoyed by this repetitive preaching.
Now that things have happened, it is more important to look forward rather than indulge in endless arguments.
"Don't persuade me anymore. I know very well what is important and what is not."
Xu Xiufang's eyes flashed with unquestionable determination. "In the past, I chose to turn a blind eye to their little moves, just because I didn't want to stir up unnecessary waves, but this undoubtedly encouraged their arrogance. Now I have made such a clear statement, just to give them a clear signal, to let them realize that I am no longer a Wuxia Amon, it is best for them to keep to themselves."
"Although I failed to catch them today and I can't take action immediately, if there is a next time, once they dare to cross the line again, I will not show mercy. At least I will make them lose the capital for arrogance first."
