Jinyi Spring

Chapter 3 Getting into trouble
It was already two quarters past noon, and the early autumn sun was still scorching.

Feng Buji leaned into Feng Chuchen's arms.

The little guy is so thin that it makes people feel sad. His face is as big as a palm and his arms are so thin that they seem like they can be broken with one hand.

Feng Chuchen just noticed that there was another green bump on the back of his head. "Who hit him?"

Banxia gritted her teeth and said, "The day before yesterday morning, the young master was playing at the door, and suddenly a small stone flew out from the woods. It must have been done by some wicked person from the old Feng family. Now they don't dare to beat him openly, nor do they dare to beat him to death. It's so disgusting.

"Aunt Wang was so angry that she ran to Li Zheng Zhao's house and cried for a long time. Li Zheng Zhao went and beat up those family members."

Feng Chuchen instructed, "Brother, don't leave the yard without someone by your side."

"Ah."

Two bowls of noodles came first. The aroma of eggs, noodles and vegetables made Feng Chuchen, who hadn't had a proper meal for several days, take a deep breath and eagerly picked up his chopsticks to eat.

Suddenly, she saw a two or three-year-old child lying on a window on the third floor of the restaurant opposite. The child looked around happily, and the next moment he fell headfirst from the window.

Feng Chuchen's first instinct was to run to pick up the child, but in an instant another person ran over and caught the child.

Feng Chuchen braked urgently, but still ran two steps due to inertia before stopping.

The man ran too fast and didn't expect a woman to suddenly run up to him. When he was trying to avoid her, he lost his balance and stepped on a small stone. His legs bent and he knelt down in front of Feng Chuchen.

Feng Chuchen was so frightened that he choked. When he coughed, the egg noodles and vegetable leaves in his mouth sprayed out and landed right on the man's nose and lips.

Feng Chuchen quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe his face, "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it..."

The man was drunk, smelling of alcohol and his face was flushed. After being rubbed twice on the face, he realized that he had not only knelt down to the dead girl in front of him, but she also spat dirty things on his face.

He was so angry that he jumped up and cursed, "Die..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, something on his lips fell into his mouth, making him so disgusted that he bent over and vomited.

The child in his arms cried out, "Mom, Mom, I'm scared..."

A woman ran out of the restaurant frantically, "My son, thank you benefactor, wuwuwu..."

Feng Chuchen slipped on his feet, turned around, picked up Feng Buji, who was still in a daze, and ran forward.

Banxia took out a handful of money from her pocket and threw it on the table, then ran away without even counting.

The two ran all the way out of the street and stopped only when they saw no one was chasing them.

Banxia panted and wondered, "Girl, why are you running?"

The original owner had a very good physical condition and his breathing was steady even though he was running so fast.

"I made that man kneel down and sprayed him in the face. Am I expecting to be scolded? I might even get beaten."

Banxia worriedly asked, "Will that person remember what the girl looks like? What if we run into him again?"

Feng Chuchen said, "There are thousands of people, it's not easy to run into one. Besides, he was drunk and looked confused, so he might not remember me. I haven't been to Beijing much recently, so he might forget me after a while."

She remembered him, with a slender figure, three-dimensional features, a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes, a golden hair crown, and martial arts skills.

That person must be from a wealthy family. The sharpness in his eyes was frightening, indicating that he had a bad temper...

Those rich young men would cause trouble even if they weren't provoked, let alone something so embarrassing.

Feng Chuchen was extremely depressed. He not only failed to accomplish any good thing, but also incurred hatred.

They bought a few cabbage buns and ate them, then hired a donkey cart to go home.

Feng Bu Ji felt hot and sleepy, and slept soundly in his sister's arms.

Feng Chuchen was thinking about something.

After Doctor Feng died, all the Feng clan members except Feng Changfu's family came to the orphan's house and demanded to take over the orphan's property. They wished Feng Buji would die of illness immediately and drive Feng Chuchen away.

The Feng family migrated from other places, and there were not many people in the clan. There were only a dozen households in Baima Village and Hekou Village, and there was no clan leader. Feng Taigong was already in his sixties, the oldest and most senior person in the clan, and he had the final say in clan affairs.

The ones who made the most noise when they went to Feng Chuchen's house were him and his grandson Feng Qi.

The original owner refused to hand over the property on the grounds that he had a son, Feng Buji, and said that his younger brother could manage it. Those clansmen would go to his house every now and then to make trouble, and they pushed and beat Feng Buji many times...

They wanted to stimulate Feng Buji and make him die of illness sooner.

Some people even arranged a marriage for the original owner, hoping to force her to marry them.

On July 15th, it was one month since Doctor Feng passed away, and also her forty-third birthday.

Aunt Wang and Banxia stayed at home to fend off the clansmen who came to their house, so the original owner and Feng Buji were able to escape and go up the mountain to burn paper for their aunt.

Feng Buji was in poor health, and was carried up and down the mountain by the original owner.

After burning the paper, I walked to the mountainside and met my uncle Feng Qi.

Feng Qi came up to them and said with a smile, "Are you here to visit your elder sister's grave? I just happened to be here to visit her grave as well."

The two siblings hated him the most.

Feng Chuchen ignored him and carried her brother down the mountain. As soon as she turned around, Feng Qi pushed her and the brother and sister rolled down the cliff.

The original owner subconsciously protected her brother in her arms and quickly hooked a large rock with one foot to slow down the speed and impact. After rolling down a distance, she was stopped by a large tree, but her head still hit a rock and she fainted.

Feng Buji was well protected and only suffered minor injuries. He was so scared that he cried loudly, "Sister, sister, help me..."

A few passers-by happened to see them and rescued them.

When he woke up again, Feng Chuchen had become Shui Chuchen.

Everyone thought Feng Chuchen was fine, but she was the only one who knew that the real Feng Chuchen was dead...

Shui Chuchen lay dead on the bed for three days.

In the past two days, she not only recovered from her injuries, but also couldn't accept the fact of time travel. She didn't just go back to the time before liberation, but to hundreds of years ago.

I wonder how sad my grandfather in the previous life would be.

On the third day, Shui Chuchen accepted the reality. One has to look forward. Now that he is here, he cannot keep avoiding it.

From then on, she was Feng Chuchen from Baima Village on the outskirts of the capital of the Great Yan Dynasty, not Shui Chuchen, a traditional Chinese medicine doctor in the 21st century.

She began to wonder how she should live her life and how she could live a better life.

After thinking about it for a whole day, he went to the county government office the next day to beat the drum to appeal for justice. He accused Feng Qi of murder for money and pushing Feng Chuchen and his sister off the cliff. He also accused Feng Taigong of allowing his grandson to commit murder in an attempt to kill the orphan and seize the family property.

There were witnesses who saw Feng Qi at the crime scene, and many villagers testified that Feng Taigong led his clansmen to go to Doctor Feng's house many times to make a scene.

Feng Chuchen's complaint is true.

Magistrate Li sentenced Feng Qi to twenty canes and one year in prison. Feng Taigong was sentenced to twenty canes, but because he was older, his grandson Feng Qi took the punishment.

But because Grandpa Feng was the great-uncle of Feng Chuchen and his sister, they did not die, and Feng Chuchen was sentenced to one month in prison.

According to ancient laws, if a wife sued her husband, a younger generation sued an older generation, or a servant sued his master, they would be sent to jail even if they were right, as long as the crime was not serious such as treason.

This is filial piety and the way of husbandhood.

If Feng Chuchen had only sued Feng Qi, he would not have been punished. They had already been sentenced to three terms of imprisonment.

But she was determined to drag her fifth great-uncle into it and make a big deal out of it, even if it meant going to jail. This was not only to seek justice for the deceased original owner but also to deter the clan members from touching Feng Buji again, but there was another reason as well.
