Divorce with three kids? I'll build a house and eat meat, driving my in-laws crazy.

Chapter 147 I can consider getting my third uncle to change his mind and take you as a concubine.
Li Ruru didn't stop her. Yinyin let go of Xiao Yishan's arm and patted Qiqi's head, saying, "Don't just stand there either."

And so, Xiao Yishan, wielding a kitchen knife, and Qiqi, with its gaping maw, charged toward Chen Jinbang.

He stood there motionless, and Li Ruru didn't dare to do anything to him.

Li Ruru is nothing but an ignorant village woman, while he is a respectable scholar who is destined to become a high-ranking official.

Would she lay a hand on him? Would she dare offend him?
Chen Jinbang saw the menacing figure and the wolf-like dog approaching him, but he remained calm, though his heart was pounding wildly.

As the person and dog drew closer, he looked anxiously at Li Ruru.

But he found that Li Ruru was patting Peipei's back to help her catch her breath, and didn't even glance at him.

He said anxiously, "Mrs. Li, if you dare to lay a finger on me, I will live in your house for the rest of my life."

I'll eat your food and drink your drinks, and I'll also go to the authorities to report you, put you in jail, and make you kneel down and apologize to me.

"I'll make you regret your actions until the day you die. I'll make you pay the price for your ignorance."

Li Ruru didn't listen to a word he said, and she wasn't afraid at all.

This isn't a peaceful era, yet people still believe that if someone hits you, you can't fight back, otherwise it will be considered mutual assault.

In this impoverished Chenjia Village, it's already a great achievement to have enough to eat.

The village doesn't care about laws; they believe the most effective law is their own fist.

The villagers of Chenjia Village are known for their fierce and aggressive nature; fights and brawls are common occurrences.

No one ever goes to the authorities for these trivial matters. If they lose a fight, they only think that their fists aren't strong enough or that they don't have enough people on their side.

Only a few scholars, like Chen Jinbang, constantly talked about reporting to the authorities.

Li Ruru didn't listen to Chen Jinbang's words, but Xiao Yishan did.

He quickly withdrew the cleaver and also grabbed Qiqi's ear.

Qiqi had to retract its gaping maw, its eyes stretched long, as it experienced the discomfort of being choked.

It whimpered twice in dissatisfaction, as if to say: How could you be like this? You're a coward, but I'm not! Let me go, I'm going to bite this bastard to death!
Chen Jinbang was so scared he almost peed his pants. His voice was trembling as he spoke, "You jinx, I knew you wouldn't dare to make a move, you coward!"

Xiao Yishan stopped not because he was afraid of him, but because he was afraid that if he really hurt this bastard, he would blame his godmother.

Given the shamelessness of the Chen family, they might end up moving in with the whole family to live with their godmother.

Seeing the two men on the verge of exchanging blows, Qiqi felt she should do something.

It jumped up and bit Chen Jinbang's hand.

what--

Chen Jinbang winced in pain, pulled his hand back and raised it above his head, the broken umbrella fell to the ground, and he was completely exposed to the rain.

Xiao Yishan didn't use an umbrella. He took two steps closer to Chen Jinbang and said, "If you curse me one more time, see if I dare to make a move. Anyway, I'm just a worthless life, and I don't mind dragging you down to hell with me."

He patted Chen Jinbang on the shoulder and said with a sinister smile, "At least we'll have each other on the road to the underworld."

Xiao Yishan was orphaned and had no children, so he was fearless.

People like him are considered key targets for surveillance by the government because they have no weaknesses that can be exploited.

Naturally, they are not afraid of anything.

Chen Jinbang looked at the pair of sinister eyes in front of him, eyes that seemed to want to devour him, and his legs trembled uncontrollably.

He remembered that his two younger brothers used to gang up on Xiao Yishan and even called him a coward.

If bullied, they won't fight back; they'll just walk away silently like a block of wood.

But the person in front of him was like a malevolent star from hell, exuding a fierce aura that wouldn't tolerate him uttering a single disrespectful word.

"Who wants to keep you company?"

Chen Jinbang pushed him away and took a few steps back in fear.

Xiao Yishan didn't want to live anymore because his life was already over; he had no family and no future. But he was different; he had a bright future, a loving family, and his life was precious.

Seeing her eldest cousin run outside with a pale face, Chen Huaidi sneered, "Tch, I thought you were so capable."

They didn't get a single penny before being kicked out.

Chen Jinbang didn't have time to argue with her and wanted to turn around and leave, but he found that his feet were cold.

Looking down, I realized that one of my shoes had disappeared sometime during the day.

"Where are my shoes?" He opened his mouth, only to see Qiqi happily chewing on his shoes.

"You damn dog, give me back my shoes!" Chen Jinbang roared.

Qiqi looked up at him, her amber eyes filled with disdain: Your shoes? Do you have any proof? Come and get them if you dare!

Chen Jinbang was neither capable nor dared to go and take it.

Li Ruru got up to close the door when Peipei suddenly started coughing violently.

She helped her daughter sit down and said with heartache, "Don't get agitated, I'm fine, we're all fine."

The two Chen siblings were like clowns, posing no threat to her whatsoever.

Peipei coughed a few times and said, "Mom, they insulted you, why didn't you talk back?"

Li Ruru was taken aback, then smiled and said, "I don't think it's necessary."

Peipei felt a pang of sadness. Her mother was willing to defy everyone and everything for them, afraid that they would suffer even the slightest grievance.

But when it comes to myself, I feel it's unnecessary and I don't get angry.

Mother is really... she's going to cry herself to death.

Li Ruru, unaware of Peipei's thoughts, earnestly explained, "If a dog bites me, I can always bite back, right?"

She used to hate evil, but now she has earned a lot of money, has a lovely family, is surrounded by love every day, and enjoys admiring gazes from everyone.

Without realizing it, her heart softened.

Of course, this softness also carries a sharp edge; her family is both her armor and her Achilles' heel, something that cannot be trampled upon.

Peipei stubbornly replied, "Why not? If a dog bites you, you should not only bite back, but bite back harder and more fiercely."

Li Ruru stared at Peipei, recalling the first time she met her.

When she was brought here by the slave trader, her eyes were timid, and she didn't even dare to look people in the eye.

Now, she has become assertive and has an air of arrogance, like a pampered young lady who grew up surrounded by love.

Li Ruru had only ever seen this kind of temperament in Bai Lu.

She touched Peipei's face and said, "You're right, but your health is the most important thing right now."

The matter of slapping Chen Jinbang and Chen Huaidi in the face can be put on hold for now.

Li Ruru didn't want to argue with the Chen siblings today, but they insisted on seeking attention.

Chen Huaidi stood at the door and shouted, "Third Aunt, Second Cousin is just coughing, she's not going to die, don't worry about her, hurry up and get me some food."

"If I don't eat something soon, I'll starve to death."

Seeing that Xiao Yishan and the dog were both quite far away, Chen Jinbang was no longer afraid.

He shouted, "At worst, Peipei will die of illness. If a little girl dies, we can save some food. You should be secretly happy."

"If you don't give me money, you're robbing me of my bright future; you're a sinner of Chenjia Village."

Chen Huaidi continued, "If my second cousin dies, my third aunt can just take me in as her daughter. I promise to take good care of you in the future and make sure you have a hot meal to eat in your old age."

Chen Jinbang: "You've earned so much money, but you don't have a son, so all your hard work is for nothing. If you apologize to me and give me all the money, I might consider getting my third uncle to change his mind and take you as a concubine."
