Zhang Guiying was furious when she heard this.

Although family planning is strict these days, it hasn't reached that level yet.

They're all from the same village.

Going back a few generations, they are all related by blood.

In some villages, village chiefs, in order to protect pregnant women in the village, will notify each household in advance when someone from higher authorities comes to inspect, so that the pregnant women can go back to their parents' home or go somewhere else to hide.

The fine can be imposed according to policy after the child is born.

It's rare to see someone as utterly heartless and indifferent to human life as Li Gui.

Zhang Guiying immediately gave the note to her daughter-in-law.

"Thank you, thank you!" the young woman cried as she ran away.

Zhang Guiying raised her voice and said, "Many hands make light work. Even though the others don't have birth certificates, they can still go with this girl to report him. The more people there are, the faster Li Gui will fall from power."

This statement came out.

Other villagers who had been oppressed or persecuted by Li Gui left the scene quietly.

Wu Ximei stomped her feet and chased after her.

But with her old arms and legs, she couldn't outrun the young man. By the time she ran out of the courtyard, the young wife was nowhere to be seen on the road outside the gate.

Wu Ximei slapped her thigh and burst into tears, "Old man, what are we going to do!"

"..."

Li's father's eyes reddened.

He's in big trouble.

It's all Zhang Guiying's fault!

Li's father roared, "What are you all standing there for? Don't you think my words count? Beat them up! I'll take responsibility if anything happens!"

"..."

The villagers hesitated, and no one moved.

Let's not even talk about the fact that assaulting someone is illegal.

They rushed out just now to curry favor with the village chief.

With so many people now filing formal complaints, can the village chief still hold onto his position?

A village chief who could fall from power at any moment is not worth the risk.

Mr. Li was furious.

Seeing that no one moved, he roared, "I'm not finished yet!"

As he spoke, he snatched the iron shovel from the villager's hand and slapped it at the culprit, Zhang Guiying. Zhang Guiying, quick-witted and agile, pulled Zhao Xueyi, who was standing next to her, to block the blow.

"Aww!"

Zhao Xueyi instinctively crossed his arms to block the shovel.

Both arms went numb instantly from the slaps, and he yelled in pain, "Mom! Tell the truth, did you really not pick me out of the trash can? Who uses their own son as a human shield?!"

Zhang Guiying retorted irritably, "Then what do you think I sent you here for!"

"..."

Zhao Xueyi suddenly realized.

No wonder Mom assigned tasks to Xia Zhi and Qiu Zhi, but only brought him into the hospital.

He thought this was because his mother valued his performance.

After all that effort...

He's a complete traitor.

Zhao Xueyi wanted to cry but had no tears.

Zhao Xiazhi, who was in the courtyard, was also stunned. So, her mother didn't let her and Qiuzhi enter the courtyard to protect them... Zhao Xiazhi's nose suddenly felt a little sore.

It seemed that her parents didn't care about her and Qiuzhi as much as she had imagined.

Seeing Li Yaozong circle around to Zhang Guiying's side, Zhao Xiazhi's heart jumped into her throat. "Mom, be careful!"

Zhang Guiying reacted quickly.

He spun and jumped in place, dodging Li Yaozong's sneak attack.

She sighed again, marveling at the advantages of youth, then shoved Zhao Xueyi towards her, saying, "Go beat up Li Yaozong! If you knock him down, I'll make you steamed pork with rice flour tomorrow!"

meat!

Steamed pork with rice flour!

Steamed pork with rice flour, made by Mom herself!

In a moment of impulsiveness, Zhao Xueyi yelled and started fighting with Li Yaozong.

Zhao Binghe grabbed a shovel and fought with Li Gui, Zhang Guiying grabbed Wu Ximei's hair and fought with her, and Zhao Xiazhi gritted her teeth, picked up a stick, and seized the opportunity to sneak up and hit the Li family with the stick.

Zhao Chunzhi cried her heart out, "Stop hitting me! Please stop hitting me!"

The two children were so frightened that they burst into tears.

The courtyard was in complete chaos.

The villagers inside the courtyard were hesitating whether to intervene when they heard onlookers outside shout, "The police are here! The police are here!"

The villagers were so frightened that they quickly dropped their weapons and retreated far away.

Zhang Guiying reacted the fastest.

He quickly lay down on the ground and started yelling at the top of his lungs, "Help! Police officers, please come and save us! If you don't come soon, my whole family will be beaten to death!"

Wu Ximei was so angry that she trembled all over.

Who's the one yelling for help? Who's going to be beaten to death?!

The roaring motorcycle stopped at the door.

Zhao Qiuzhi quickly jumped off the back seat, glanced at the family in the yard, and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that everyone was alright. She then immediately pointed at Li's father, who was holding an iron shovel.

"Officers, look! Li Gui still has a weapon! Luckily we arrived in time, otherwise my parents and my siblings would be dead today, sob sob sob..."

Mr. Li was stunned and subconsciously said, "It's not like I had any weapons myself. Zhao Binghe also had some iron... Zhao Binghe, where's your shovel?"

Zhao Binghe's hands were empty.

He had already thrown the shovel far away when someone shouted that the police were coming.

Zhao Binghe looked completely innocent. "What shovel? My whole family are civilized people. We're here to collect a debt, not to fight. What would I need a shovel for?"

"You, you..."

Mr. Li had never seen such a shameless person. "You must have seen the police arrive and dropped the shovel. Officers, listen to me... Zhao Binghe still had a weapon in his hand just now. If you don't believe me, ask the people in the yard."

Zhang Guiying retorted, "You're the village head of Lijia Village. Everyone in this yard except my family is from your village. You can make them say whatever you want."

"..."

Mr. Li nearly choked on his breath, pointing at Zhao Chunzhi, "Zhao Chunzhi is your daughter, let Zhao Chunzhi speak."

"Shut up! Ever since my daughter married into your family, I don't know how you've abused her. She lives like a spineless coward. Just now, she didn't dare to utter a sound when she saw her parents about to be beaten. Now that you've forced her to come out and testify, of course she's taking your side."

Zhang Guiying roared, "I'll just consider this girl as something I raised for nothing, and give her to your family, okay... Officers, I'm relieved to have you uphold justice."

The police officer entered the hospital, his face grim, and asked, "What exactly happened?"

Zhang Guiying didn't give the Li family a chance to speak at all.

He rattled off the situation in a rapid-fire manner, like a machine gun.

After saying that, she pinched her thigh, wiped away her tears, and said, "Officer, Li Gui just admitted to owing money in front of the whole village. Everyone present was a witness!"

"We've made them owe us this money for seven whole years. In those seven years, they've built a brick house, raised pigs, cattle, and sheep, but they've never mentioned paying it back."

"Nobody's rich these days. My family's money is saved for our children's future needs. Just a few days ago, my fourth child was getting married, but because my family couldn't afford the bride price, the two of them had to break up!"

"If we had no other choice, we wouldn't want to fall out with our in-laws and put our daughter in such a difficult position. We came to ask for the money back, and not only did the Li family refuse to pay, they even resorted to violence."

"Officers, you absolutely must stand up for my family!"
