Chapter 128 I Want All the Handsome Men in the World
Da Mei was utterly shocked when she heard about the mountain closure!
How could her mother be so bold as to commit arson and murder?
But that's something only her mother would do.
"My mother could do something like this, you must have forced her to!" Da Mei wouldn't side with outsiders. What would happen to her and her siblings if her mother lost her position as village chief?
Their shop's business largely depends on her mother's position as village chief, which ensures a steady stream of customers.
The two, Da Mei and Da Shuai, are determined to deny everything.
"That's right, it must have been you who forced him to do it!" The general spat out a mouthful of blood, but still insisted on defending his mother.
Yan Nanfei was amused by their shamelessness; it's true, birds of a feather flock together.
“Yes, yes, you’re right, we’ll force you.” Yan Nanfei took out twenty taels of silver and selected twenty strong male villagers from among the villagers.
"You keep an eye on the village chief. Don't let them take him away before we return from reporting to the authorities!" The 'them' Yan Nanfei was referring to were naturally Da Mei and Da Shuai.
The twenty male villagers nodded in agreement, looking very confident that they could complete the task.
Please, that's one tael of silver per person! They only earn half that amount in a month!
They'd be fools to refuse!
"Are you crazy?" Seeing Yan Nanfei's actions, Da Mei immediately dragged her mother away, leaving the commander behind for the time being.
After all, without her mother, their shop would be finished!
"Where do you want to take the village chief?" Twenty strong male villagers surrounded the two of them, "We won't give them any chance to get out."
Da Mei glared angrily at Yan Nanfei. Was this guy deliberately trying to kill her mother?
She glared at Yan Nanfei with intense hatred in her eyes.
Yan Nanfei merely glanced at her indifferently.
"What are you looking at?" Yan Nanfei directly quoted the laws of the dynasty: "According to the laws of our dynasty, if a bad guy is caught, he can be detained, beaten up, and then the case can be reported to the government. The yamen runners can be called back to arrest him and bring him back for trial."
Therefore, even if the bad guys die along the way, the people who catch them will not have to bear any consequences.
It must be said that this law is quite interesting.
I'm afraid of encountering people who deliberately label good people as bad, thus harming them.
When the village chief, Da Mei, and the general heard Yan Nanfei cite this law, they were all filled with despair!
This means that Yan Nanfei really won't let the village chief off the hook!
"No, no!" The village chief, whose body was in excruciating pain, was roused by a strong will to live: "Da Mei is being unreasonable, Nan Fei, don't hold it against her!"
The village chief doesn't want to die!
She hasn't spent all the money she deposited in the money shop yet!
If he dies, wouldn't all those decades of effort have been wasted?
The village chief's pleas had no effect and instead angered Yan Nanfei.
Yan Nanfei sneered, looking at the village chief with disdain: "Your daughter isn't ignorant, she's very sensible. She's even willing to twist the truth to save you!"
The village chief, despite the pain, gave Da Mei a light pat on the shoulder, seemingly forceful but actually a massage.
"You unfilial daughter, why don't you apologize to Nanfei's sister?" The village chief was very anxious and kept urging Da Mei.
Da Mei looked disgusted, but she couldn't resist her mother's urging, and besides, the village chief couldn't be allowed to get into trouble.
Just as Da Mei was about to apologize, Yan Nanfei immediately looked disgusted and said, "Shut your dog mouth!"
"First of all, I don't have a sister, and she can't possibly be my sister. Stop trying to disgust me." Yan Nanfei's face was ashen, and he felt like he was about to vomit.
Upon hearing Yan Nanfei's strong disapproval, the village chief immediately changed his tune and apologized: "Yes, yes, it was my foul mouth that caused the trouble. Nanfei, please forgive my rudeness!"
Hearing her mother so aggrieved and pleading, Da Mei wanted to stand up for the village chief.
But the village chief grabbed her hand and gestured to Da Mei with his eyes, telling her not to speak.
Yan Nanfei looked at the indignant Da Mei, a meaningful smile curving his lips.
"She's talking nonsense, shouldn't she be slapped?" Yan Nanfei's voice was calm, yet it carried a chilling undertone.
Da Mei was stunned. Before she could react, the village chief had already made his move.
"Clap clap clap..."
Several slaps landed directly on Da Mei's face, leaving her completely stunned.
The village chief acted so quickly that she had no chance to defend herself and felt a burning pain on her face.
Yan Nanfei stood aside, watching the scene with a detached, indifferent gaze, as if he were watching a play.
Da Mei's face was swollen from the beating, and the burning pain made her burst into tears instantly.
Her usually proud and arrogant face was now marred by the slap from her mother, and she couldn't swallow her anger.
"Mother, have you gone mad?!" Da Mei grabbed the village chief's collar, her eyes filled with hatred. "How could you hit me? I'm your daughter!!!"
So what if it's a daughter?
If it can't help you but instead drags you down, then it's better to not have it!
"You're my daughter. I can slap you a few times and it'll save my life. You don't want that?!"
The village chief's tone was full of threat and warning.
It was as if Da Mei wouldn't let her hit him, and she was going to teach him a lesson.
How could Da Mei stand this insult?
When they tried to resist, the village chief bluntly said, "If something happens to me, do you think your shop will still be making a fortune?"
Upon hearing this, Da Mei, who had lost her composure, instantly regained her senses!
"Yes, it's all my fault. I was so mean. Mother, hit me as hard as you want. As long as it makes Nanfei feel better, I will never fight back!"
Da Mei kept saying she wouldn't resist, but when Yan Nanfei said, "If you, village chief, could slap her a hundred times, I might consider not reporting it to the authorities."
Upon hearing this, the village chief completely disregarded Da Mei's consent and the pain in his body, and immediately began to attack with both hands.
Yan Nanfei counted the slaps, and after slapping Da Mei about twenty times, she completely broke down!
"Stop it! Stop it!" Da Mei tackled the village chief, pinning her already swaying body down. "If you hit me again, I'll kill you!"
Da Mei's face was covered in clear scratches, blood was seeping from the corner of her mouth, and her entire face was swollen.
"Snap, snap, snap, snap!"
Da Mei received several more slaps on the cheek.
"You've gone too far?" The village chief's face twisted in a grimace. "Do you know who you're talking to?"
"How dare you say you'd kill me?!"
Da Mei looks like a demon, sending chills down your spine!
"You! You're not allowed to hit me anymore!" Da Mei cried out, trying her best to stop him.
The village chief was terrified and quickly withdrew his hand, no longer daring to hit her.
However, Da Mei's hand gripped the village chief's neck tightly, as if she could kill him at any moment.
"What? Are you scared?" Da Mei stared intently at the village chief, making his scalp tingle.
