Chapter 127 Revenge and Land Seizure
"Gu Taohua, release Xu Da."

"Aren't you ashamed to sit on a man's lap as a young woman?"

Xu Da's wife, who was also Yan Pozi's niece, ran over upon hearing the news. When she saw her husband being sat on by Gu Taohua, she rolled up her sleeves and tried to pull Gu Taohua away.

Little Yan is even fatter than Gu Taohua.

During the fight in the spring, Gu Taohua was unable to perform to her full potential because she was controlled by Xiao Yanshi.

Enemies meeting are bound to be furious. Gu Taohua not only didn't get up, but also slightly raised her buttocks before sitting down hard again.

Xu Da screamed in pain, feeling like his ribs were about to break.

"Widow Tong, quickly wake Tao Hua up. Xu Da is going to die, and you won't get away with it either," Little Yan said to Tong Huaqiong.

The way she called out "widow" so naturally shows she's been doing it a lot behind people's backs.

"You and your mother-in-law keep talking about widows, today I'll make you and your mother-in-law widows together." After saying that, Gu Taohua turned around and spun around, making Xu Da furious.

"You," Little Yan reached out and grabbed Gu Taohua.

"What are you doing?" Chen Sufeng stood in front of Gu Taohua, not wanting her sister-in-law to be bullied.

"You two think you can bully my sister-in-law together? No way!" Liu Yue'e brandished a sickle and held it in front of Xiao Yanshi, sneering, "You seem to care about your husband, but he cares about you. Your husband often sneaks into Widow Chen's house in Moon Bay. If you have a problem with Widow Chen, why don't you go and confront her? Why do you keep calling my mother-in-law a widow? It's not my mother-in-law who stole your husband."

Tong Huaqiong: "."

Liu Yue'e was quite ruthless in her insults, directly exposing Xu Da's secrets. Liu Yue'e's sister lived in Moon Bay, so she knew all the gossip about Moon Bay.

He just doesn't think things through when he speaks.

Little Yan lost face in public and turned pale with anger.

Liu Yue'e wanted to make a sarcastic remark.

"Yue'e."

Liu Yue'e's mother, Zhao, stood in front of the crowd and called out her daughter's name.

Her own daughter was so naive; she could curse anyone, but why drag her own mother-in-law into it? That would be hurting both sides. She was afraid that if she didn't stop Liu Yue'e, she might say something even more outrageous.

Zhao had already sent Yaozu and Man'er to call Liu Tiechui and his son Liu Shan, fearing that Tong Huaqiong's family would be at a disadvantage against Yan Pozi's family.

After all, the Xu family was the largest family in the village, and even the village chief was a member of the Xu family.

The Liu family was also a prominent family in the village, with many descendants, and was the only surname that could rival the Xu family. Liu Tiechui was highly respected in the clan, and with him on their side, Tong Huaqiong and the others would not suffer any losses.

Soon, Liu Tiechui and his son Liu Shan arrived.

Tong Huaqiong is now not only related to the Liu family by marriage, but also Liu Shan's employer. Both morally and logically, we should help Tong Huaqiong deal with the Xu family.

Seeing Gu Jingzhe holding a sickle against Granny Yan, Gu Taohua sitting on Xu Da, and Xu Er to Xu Si not gaining any advantage against the brothers Gu Dashu and Gu Dahan, Liu Tiechui knew that his in-laws had the upper hand this time, and he was relieved.

It's wheat harvest season now, everyone's rushing to harvest, it's not the time for fighting. If they want to deal with the Xu family, they can find another opportunity.

There's no need to dwell on this any longer today.

Thinking this, Liu Tiechui stepped forward to mediate, getting both sides to put down their sickles.

“Old woman Yan, you’re mistaken if you think I’m easy to bully,” Tong Huaqiong said. “I’m giving my in-laws face by not holding it against you.”

Gu Jingzhe took the sickle, and Granny Yan almost fell on the riverbank.

"Granny Yan, stop with your act. Are you trying to scam us? Let me tell you, even if you die on the riverbank today, it has nothing to do with us." Tong Huaqiong saw through Granny Yan's intentions; she and Tong Dajiao were skilled in the same tricks.

They're all unreasonable, refusing to back down when they're right, arguing for seven points even when they're wrong, and throwing a tantrum when they lose.

Tong Huaqiong was determined to follow in Granny Yan's footsteps, leaving Granny Yan with nowhere to go. Provoked by Tong Huaqiong's words, Granny Yan could no longer throw a tantrum.

"Peach Blossom, get up too," Liu Tiechui said to Gu Taohua.

“Okay, I’ll give Uncle Liu face.” Gu Taohua stood up and patted her bottom.

Xu Da felt a sense of relief wash over him.

"Old woman Yan, you really are something else. You've been bullying Tong Dajiao with your four sons since spring. You think that just because she's an orphan and a widow, you can't bully her like this!" Aunt Qin, who had come with Qin Qingyou to support Tong Huaqiong, couldn't help but speak up for her.

Her son and daughter-in-law are now working for Tong Huaqiong, so she has to support Tong Huaqiong.

The villagers' lips twitched. Granny Yan had indeed bullied Tong Dajiao in the spring, but Tong Dajiao wasn't some innocent little flower who could be bullied all the time.

Despite their thoughts, the villagers felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction seeing Granny Yan and her sons suffer a setback.

If it weren't for this family protecting their son, would Xu Si dare to grope people everywhere?

Although the villagers didn't like Tong Dajiao, her sons wouldn't do anything to bully the village girls and wives.

Compared to this, the Gu family members all appeared to have refined features.

Besides, ever since Tong Dajiao started doing business in town, she's treated the villagers much better. When villagers go to buy pastries, she'll even give them a few pieces less. Now, Gu Xiaocao and Qin Qingyou, a couple from the village, both work for her in her shop in town, and I heard their monthly wages are quite good.

Everyone in the village who wasn't looking for work would love to work at the Peach Blossom Dessert Shop.

Therefore, when Tong Huaqiong and Granny Yan's family got into a fight, most people in the village, except for the Xu family, sided with Tong Huaqiong.

Tong Huaqiong glanced at Granny Yan and her swarm of wicked bamboo. Right here, Tong Dajiao and Gu Taohua were suffering their mistreatment.

Having spent so much time with Gu Taohua, they've developed a mother-daughter relationship. If Tong Huaqiong doesn't seek justice for Tong Dajiao, she has to seek justice for Gu Taohua.

From the moment she saw Granny Yan sitting on the riverbank gossiping, she deliberately peeked out to provoke her.

Granny Yan took two extra feet of land from Tong Dajiao in the spring, and this debt cannot be ignored.

This land now belongs to Tong Huaqiong, and she cannot tolerate her land being planted with other people's crops.

"Old woman Yan, your Xu family encroached on two feet of my land in the spring, and I didn't hold it against you. Now I'm taking it back. You don't need to return it; I'll go get it myself."

Tong Huaqiong picked up the sickle from the ground, and amidst the onlookers, strode down the riverbank to the wheat field next to it, where she began to cut wheat with the sickle.

Everyone understood that Tong Huaqiong's performance today was revenge for Granny Yan's land grabbing in the spring.

“That’s my wheat,” Granny Yan called out.

"What do you mean, 'your family's wheat'? Granny Yan, we have to have a conscience. Everyone here has eyes. Can you tell whether that land is yours or my in-laws' land? Your ridges are almost piled up in the middle of my in-laws' land. You can't be so mean. If you say it's your land, we'll go measure it right now," Liu Tiechui said, his face darkening.

Liu Tiechui was quite influential in the village. As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone chimed in, saying that it was Tong Dajiao's land.

Granny Yan and the group of wicked bamboo had no choice but to swallow their anger.

Tong Huaqiong was not good at farm work, and she was not very good at harvesting wheat. She wielded a sickle quite clumsily.

Gu Jingzhe picked up a sickle and followed Gu Dahan, Chen Sufeng, and the others. Seeing Gu Jingzhe walk into the field, they also picked up sickles and rushed into the wheat field.

Today we must take back the two extra feet of land that Granny Yan occupied.

Even Man'er and Yaozu were not idle; they followed behind the adults and gathered the wheat into a pile.

Granny Yan was heartbroken and vomited blood. The wheat she planted on the extra two feet of land she had occupied in the spring, the best wheat seeds she had selected, and the wheat she had tended to with all her heart, all of it ended up going to Tong Huaqiong.

Not reconciled.
