Brave the world of self-cultivation with the aura of Jack Su

Chapter 102 – In the Illusion – Family Conflicts
Liu Shuan saw Liu Piaopiao walking towards him with a knife in his hand, and immediately started screaming and running away.

Liu Piaopiao stared at him closely, and chased after him with a knife in hand.

In the little boy's field of vision, he only felt that she was extremely terrifying, as if she would cut someone down in the next second.

After a period of time……

"Stop chasing me. I haven't provoked you recently, have I? Why do you still want to chop me with a knife?"

Liu Shuan touched the sweat on his forehead.

His face was flushed, and he was panting, and the panting sound was like a bellows being pulled.

Liu Piaopiao's physical strength was about the same as his.

People didn't catch up, and they tired themselves out.

"Who said I was going to kill you? I used this knife for self-defense. The weather is getting hotter and the animals on the mountain are more active recently. What if I encounter a ferocious animal? Can't I protect myself? ’ she said solemnly.

"Don't justify yourself, I don't believe it, you still wanted to kill me with a knife last time." Liu Shuan looked vigilant, taking his own life very seriously.

Liu Piaopiao let out a long sigh of relief.

"Please, if I hit you, just use your bare hands, why do you need a knife?
I came to see you today because I have something to talk to you about. "

Of course, she held the knife not only for defense, but also as a deterrent.

In such a mountain village, she has no money and no power.

If you don't have a little bit of madness, how can you suppress these little boys.

As an adult, she couldn't handle it with her current stature, even with a knife.

Then she can only start with these children and try to get back the compensation that her family deserves.

"What do you want to say, just stand there and say it. If you want to get close, just drop the knife." Liu Shuan said loudly from a distance.

Liu Piaopiao put the knife into her bag, and said with a smile: "Alright, then I'll talk about it here."

"Your family still owes our family half a tael of silver. Everyone in the village can testify. You are here. When will your family pay it back? You two days."

"Between us, I wasn't the one who made trouble in the first place. If your family can't even pay back the compensation, don't blame me for being unreasonable. After all, you and your mother have never been unreasonable, and I just retaliated with an eye."

"But don't worry, I won't do anything excessive. I just simply block your way to and from school. After all, I am a reasonable person. Even if I do it, I will definitely drag you to a place where no one is around, with my bare hands. No knife."

At this time, there were no other people on the mountain road, and the sun in the distance had already begun to set.

After the school was over, everyone from the same village as Liu Shuan had already left.

Facing the little girl who was completely different from usual alone, he still trembled a little in his heart.

The last time he was beaten, he felt a little scared, and even started to regret it.

Those pains made him see clearly that the person opposite was not easy to provoke at all.

The little girl used to look at Wen Jing and swallow her breath, it was all fake.

I just don't want to fight with them, and I don't want to be discovered by my master who is not quiet.

But now that his face has been torn apart, he will no longer endure the disguise in front of him.

"Our family's money is all with my father. It's useless for you to tell me this." He couldn't help complaining.

Liu Piaopiao rested for a while, and gained some strength.

She began to walk quickly towards the boy, and said sternly as she walked, "It's useless? When your mother came to find fault, I thought you were very cheerful and wanted to throw stones at my sister...

Anyway, they are all from your family, I don't care if it's useful or not.

You were the one who took the lead in tripping me up in the past, and yours was the only one who came to my house to seek trouble.

You said, I don't look for you for this matter, who do I look for? "

Seeing her approaching quickly, Liu Shuan was so frightened that he quickly hid away again.

"I see, I'll go back and talk!"

He was tense and his face turned pale.

On the one hand, it was indeed exhausting, and on the other hand, it was also because of being frightened.

Only then did Liu Piaopiao stop her steps.

"Even if you don't care about the account, you still have a share in the debt. I'll say it again, you have to remember it.

If I can’t get the money in one day, I will block you for one day, and if I can’t get it in two days, I will block you for two days. I hope you can get the money as soon as possible before my patience is exhausted. Otherwise, I may start from which day. Let's do it. "

"I got it! I will bring you the money as soon as possible!" Liu Shuan shouted, tears were about to come out.

This is Liu Piaopiao's satisfaction.

He turned slightly sideways to make way.

"Then hurry up, I still have things to do."

Liu Shuan was already frightened.

Cautiously asked: "What is it?"

Liu Piaopiao raised her eyebrows and said coldly, "What's none of your business? Do I still need to report to you when I go for a spear?"

The weather is getting hotter and there are more fish in the river.

She happened to have a knife with her, so she could cut a branch and spear fish near the river beach.

But her sister didn't let her get close to the water, so she could only go quietly.

"Fork fish?" The boy's tone was obviously surprised.

There are also people in the village who spear fish, but they are all older people, boys in their teens.

He sometimes goes to school to see it, but he has never tried it himself.

Seeing that the boy hadn't left yet, Liu Piaopiao didn't want to waste it.

He left with the knife on his back.

Seeing her go, Liu Shuan hurried to the house.

It was getting dark, and he still had homework to finish.

It may be necessary to light oil lamps after dark. Lamp oil is very expensive. He said that it is better to write early.

With a knife on her back, Liu Piaopiao felt relieved after blocking people.

Happily went to the nearby river beach.

Before dark, she can still play for a while, it's not good to wait until it's too late.

Liu Shuan walked on the long mountain road with his bag on his back.

Not long after walking, I heard someone shouting in the distance.

He listened carefully again, only to realize that it was his mother and many other people in the village.

The middle-aged woman was walking on the road, and she couldn't stop cursing the two sisters Liu Piaopiao in her heart.

While worrying about her child, she had already figured out how to go to Liu Piaopiao's house to make trouble at that time.

Liu Shuan was surrounded by a group of people in a daze, and then began to be interrogated by the surrounding adults in various ways.

"Are you all right? Did you get hurt? Did you get cut by a knife?"

The fat woman dragged her child, looked left and right, and was really relieved when she saw that there was no blood on his body.

"Where's that little bastard Liu Piaopiao? I'll go to her to settle the score."

Once again, Liu Shuan heard his mother talk about settling accounts, and his heart was no longer eager to try.

He firmly pulled the middle-aged woman's clothes and said, "Mom, she didn't do anything to me, so don't go to her."

It's impossible for his mother and father to follow him every day.

In case that person gets angry because of this matter again, he will be the one who will be repaired at that time.

The middle-aged woman grabbed his arm and reprimanded loudly: "She threatened you with a knife, why are you still thinking about it!
This matter can't be left alone, we must make this matter clear!

Don't worry, my mother will definitely seek justice for you! "

"What kind of justice is it? Our family still owes others half a tael of silver."

Liu Shuan yelled to his mother in front of everyone: "You can't even reason with others, so you know the use of making loud noises!

If you have the ability, you pay back the money, and I don't have to be pointed at by others!

Liu Piaopiao took the knife to cut branches and spear fish, can you stop going there again, and embarrass me in public! "

If it wasn't for her mother, there wouldn't be these things.

Why can't the matter be settled simply? He really regrets it now, and just wants this matter to end quickly.

Liu Shuan couldn't help putting his complaints on his mother.

Resentment arose in my heart.

Seeing help turned into chores of onlookers.

The group of men and women surrounding the fat woman spread out a little, and stood by and kept silent.

They said, how could such a thin girl like Liu Piaopiao kill people with a knife? It turned out that she just secretly went to the river to learn how to spear fish from older children.

It was Liu Shuan and his mother, whoops, I didn't expect that there would be a dispute between mother and son over money owed.

Liu Piaopiao was injured, and the village head presided over the compensation.

This is well known in the village.

Unexpectedly, Liu Shuan's family members have not provided any compensation until now.

The fat woman was criticized by her son in front of everyone, and her face turned black, white, blue, and red.

In my heart, it was like an overturned stove, full of mixed flavors.

More of it, of course, is anger.

She pulled the little boy's arm, twisted his ear, and hit him hard.

"You little bastard, how dare you talk to me like that!"

Liu Shuan was grabbed by her, tears came out quickly, and then began to cry loudly.

He grabbed the woman's arm and began to fall to the ground, trying to avoid her palm.

It was as if he was about to lie down on the road full of mud.

"You dare to hit me, I will go back and tell my father, I will let my father hit you!"

Upon hearing his words, the woman beat her harder.

People around began to act as peacemakers, trying to separate the mother and child.

But no matter what, the little boy and the fat woman are not forgiving.

For a while, the mountain road became dusty and smoky.

Liu Piaopiao no longer knew what happened next.

She cut a branch and stood in the middle of the beach.

The weather was getting hotter and hotter, and she had to avoid the sun at noon and afternoon.

But the water by the river is still astonishingly cold, it feels as if the cold air is going to be sent into the bones.

She only stood in the river beach for a while before returning to the shore.

It's better to wait for her to prepare better next time, otherwise, after standing in the river for a long time, I feel that my legs will not be able to move.

It just looked like it was getting dark.

She packed up her things and started walking towards home.

Although the households in Xiaoliu Village are not very close to each other, they are not far away either.

Basically, you can hear what happened to anyone's house.

If someone's family occupies a high terrain on the mountain, they can clearly see what happened to the family below.

When Liu Piaopiao walked to the entrance of the village, there was no light in the sky.

Normally, at the entrance of the village at this time, there may be a group of adults chatting, and a group of children playing hide-and-seek in the dark.

But when she went back, there was no one at the entrance of the village.

Although she felt strange in her heart, she still walked in the direction of her home. After all, it was getting late.

When she reached the center of the village, she vaguely heard women's cries and curses, as well as other noisy voices.

Out of curiosity, Liu Piaopiao ran over to have a look.

It was Liu Shuan's family who had the dispute.

A large crowd gathered around their door.

Because of his short stature, Liu Piaopiao couldn't see clearly what was going on in the yard.

She found a crooked-neck tree nearby, and it took a little effort to climb among the branches.

Only then did he pass through the crowd and see clearly what was happening in the yard.

Facing her was the arrogant woman, Liu Shuan's bloated mother, who was crying hysterically.

And there was a strong man who was physically violent to her.

Because he was too ruthless, which made the woman's screams all the more shrill.

This has attracted a lot of people, wanting to see if they can fight.

However, Liu Shuanniang's personality is somewhat unpleasant, and her popularity in the village is not very good, and most of her smiling faces are superficial.

Although the people around would stop her a little bit, none of them could completely protect her.

Women are unlikely to be able to intervene. Although they will block it out of morality, they are more worried that they will be affected.

And men will choose to watch more, and some people even have the mentality of watching a movie.

In a valley like theirs, beating a daughter-in-law is not a special thing. Basically, most village daughter-in-laws have been beaten violently.

Men who don't do anything to their daughter-in-law are really rare.

Most of them have read a little, relatively speaking, they can boast of their demeanor and don't do anything to women.

But it is only a part, and some scholars may choose to do it in private, so as not to let outsiders find out.

The man who was being violent was Liu Shuan's father.

He has been working as a porter in the town, working hard to make money.

I just came back from a market town outside. Before I came back, I drank too much wine with my co-workers.

I happened to meet someone from the same village, so I took their ox cart.

However, his ride in the ox cart was not very smooth, mainly because the people in the same village were afraid that he would vomit on the cart, so they wanted to politely refuse him.

But he drank too much again, he refused to let him go, and finally went up hard.

On the way back, the fellow villager who was driving an ox cart told him about the conflict between Liu Shuan and Liu Piaopiao, and how Liu Piaopiao was injured by his wife and was fined by the village chief.

Originally, I just wanted to chat casually on the road to pass the time.

But Liu Shuan's father may feel that he has lost face because of Liu Shuan's mother's affairs in the village.

That's why the people in the village didn't want to carry him, and they had a bad attitude towards him, and they weren't enthusiastic anymore.

After he went back, Liu Shuan complained to him again, saying how his mother beat him outside and made him ashamed.

The man couldn't get angry for a while, so he started to find fault.

There are only two ways for him to settle accounts, reprimand and violence.
