Hu Dezhu hid behind Li the carpenter before daring to point at Lin Chuan and curse him.

"I'm not here to see you today, I'm here to take my niece away!"

After saying that, he suddenly turned to look at Guan Hongying and started howling at the top of his lungs.

"Guan, you widow! Let me tell you, Daya and Siya have the blood of the Hu family flowing through their veins! You've kept them all to yourself for so many years, and now Daya is already twenty and Siya is seventeen. They're long past the age to get married! You've kept them at home like slaves, what kind of heartless act is that?!"

"Other people in their twenties are already married and have kids, and even a seventeen-year-old is at least engaged! Don't think I don't know what you're up to! Today, I, as an elder, have arranged two good marriages for them!"

Hu Dezhu pointed to the carpenter next to him, whose face was full of lewdness.

"This is Brother Li, he's willing to offer twenty catties of cornmeal as a bride price to marry Daya! And that's Brother Lai, he's willing to offer fifteen catties of dried sweet potatoes to take Siya away! It's an arranged marriage, my elder brother is gone, so I, as the second uncle, have the final say! Today you two have to marry, whether you like it or not!"

Upon hearing this, the air in the courtyard seemed to freeze instantly.

Selling his niece for personal gain?

They traded Daya for twenty pounds of cornmeal to a widower who had beaten his wife to death?!

You think you can sell Four-Eyes to a lowly hoodlum with just fifteen pounds of dried sweet potatoes?!

"You're talking nonsense!!"

Even with her good temper, Guan Daya couldn't help but tremble with anger and her eyes turned red.

She clenched her fists tightly, wishing she could rush forward and tear Hu Dezhu’s ugly face to shreds!

Guan Siya was furious. She grabbed her knife and was about to rush up and chop down.

"I'll never marry your grandma! I'll chop you up today!"

But the bald-headed man opposite him sneered, and then waved his hand. Five or six thugs holding iron bars immediately stepped forward and blocked the courtyard gate.

No matter how fierce Guan Siya's temper was, she was still just a teenage girl.

Seeing this scene now, I couldn't help but feel a little scared.

She instinctively took two steps back and hid behind Lin Chuan.

Guan Siya stood behind Lin Chuan, nervously and subconsciously tugging at the hem of his clothes.

She was still quite young, and she was a little flustered at that moment.

Guan Siya lowered her head slightly, and in a corner where no one could see, the little girl's eyes were already a little red.

Noticing Guan Siya's emotions, Lin Chuan quickly reached out and patted the back of her hand to comfort her.

"Second Sister Guan, we brothers are only bringing men today, we won't cause any trouble." The bald-headed man smiled sinisterly.

"But if you insist on protecting these two girls, then the sticks in our hands don't have eyes. I heard your family just hunted a 400-pound wild boar? Perfect, use it as dowry for Daya and Siya, then we'll have done it in style!"

See you in the picture!

This group of people isn't here to arrange a marriage; they're clearly here to rob people and meat because of their numbers!

"You think you can take advantage of me?!"

Guan Hongying, who was already furious, was now even more enraged.

She swiftly drew the butcher knife, now resembling a furious lioness.

"Let's see who dares to lay a finger on my daughter today!"

Even Guan Sanya, who had been silent all along, gripped the machete on her back and stared at Hu Dezhu's neck with eyes that looked as if he were a dead man.

Seeing that a fierce and bloody battle was inevitable, Lin Chuan suddenly chuckled.

The laughter sounded particularly jarring in the tense atmosphere of the courtyard.

"Ogawa..."

Guan Daya looked at the boy who was blocking her way with some worry.

Lin Chuan raised his hand, signaling Guan Hongying and her sisters not to worry.

He himself slowly walked down the steps, his dark eyes sweeping over Hu Dezhu and Carpenter Li before finally settling on the bald man's face.

Lin Chuan's body has long since been completely transformed by the spiritual spring water.

Although he looks lean, he is full of explosive power.

Especially these days, he has been consistently exercising.

Not to mention, they're eating their fill and replenishing their supplies like crazy every day!

All of this was in an effort to make up for my small stature at the beginning!

He strode closer, and his fearless aura forced the thugs to instinctively take a half-step back.

"Hu Dezhu, you keep saying that Daya and Siya are from your Hu family, have you lost your mind from hunger? Don't you even understand the laws of the Qing Dynasty... oh no, don't you even understand the marriage law of the new China?"

Lin Chuan stood slowly and deliberately less than a meter away from Li the carpenter, his voice chillingly cold.

"Da Ya and S Ya, back then, the commune director personally approved their applications. It's written clearly in black and white on their household registration books. Their surname is Guan, and their given names are Guan Daya and Guan S Ya!!"

"They are daughters of the Guan family, and have absolutely no relation to the Hu family of Hujiagou! Besides, haven't you forgotten about them all these years?!"

"You weren't there when the child was hungry, but now you dare to come to my Guan family's compound and try to sell my Guan family's daughter? Who gave you the audacity?"

Hu Dezhu felt a pang of guilt under Lin Chuan's sharp gaze, but relying on the support of Li the carpenter and others, he stubbornly tried to argue his way out of it.

"You're talking nonsense! Blood is thicker than water! That's family ties, what's a household registration book! Brother Li, don't waste your breath on him, this kid's just a pretty face, he and his dad are both freeloaders! Let's just take him down!"

Carpenter Li had long coveted Guan Daya, especially after seeing her in person.

He couldn't help but chuckle lewdly, and then reached out his thick, bear-paw-like hand to grab Da Ya's wrist.

"Hehe, little lady, hurry back with your brother and you'll have a good time eating and drinking..."

"court death!"

Just as Li the carpenter's hand was about to touch Guan Daya, Lin Chuan's eyes suddenly sharpened!

Without even a slight movement, his right hand shot out like lightning and precisely grabbed Li the carpenter's thick wrist!

"Hey? You little brat..."

Carpenter Li tried to shake off his hand nonchalantly, but the next second, his expression changed completely!

He felt that the hand gripping his wrist was not a human hand, but a pair of pliers!

In that instant, he felt an extremely terrifying power erupt instantly!

Lin Chuan remained expressionless, his five fingers suddenly tightened, and his wrist pressed downwards! Then he twisted it!

There was a "click".

A chilling sound of bones cracking rang out crisply in the courtyard.

"Aaaaaaahh ...

Carpenter Li let out a shrill, pig-like scream. The 200-pound strong man was so hurt that his knees buckled when Lin Chuan twisted his arm with one hand!

Then, he suddenly knelt down in front of Lin Chuan with a thud. Cold sweat instantly soaked his back.

The entire room fell silent!

Everyone stared wide-eyed at the scene in disbelief.

Who would have thought that this seemingly weak and unassuming city boy would cripple Li the village's best carpenter with a single move?!

Guan Siya even forgot to raise the knife in her hand. She subconsciously opened her mouth and stared blankly at Lin Chuan's tall and upright back, her eyes filled with shock and admiration!

Is this still Lin Chuan?!

How did he become so amazing?!
