"Daughter, Mom has come to see you!"

Meanwhile, at Widow Zhao's house, a middle-aged woman led two young men and swaggered into the courtyard.

Upon hearing the voice, Widow Zhao visibly trembled, looked up, and timidly spoke.

"You're not my mother! I've told you, we have nothing to do with each other anymore. Can your family please stop bothering me?"

"Don't make it sound so serious. I told you, we're family, blood is thicker than water. You killed my son, so naturally you have to pay for it!"

The middle-aged woman sneered, "So he is the widow Zhao's mother."

"We had an agreement: if you killed my son, you'd marry my younger son!"

"As the saying goes, 'Don't let the good stuff go to outsiders;' we can't let it benefit them for nothing!"

"You're shameless!" Zhao the widow said through gritted teeth, her whole body trembling with anger at such a statement.

"Are you leaving or not? If you don't leave, I'm calling for help! Then how will you face anyone standing here when they come?"

Faced with Widow Zhao's threat, the middle-aged woman did not back down. Instead, she sneered and directly mocked her.

"You think you can threaten me? You're a widow who's lost all her family. What can you do to me if I bully you?"

"Those villagers will only watch the show; who will speak up for you? You expect others to uphold justice? Dream on!"

"I've tried everything, from kind words to harsh ones, but since you won't listen, I'll have to resort to force. Son, just do it. Let's make it a fait accompli today. I don't believe she won't agree!"

As the middle-aged woman spoke, she waved her hand, and the two men behind her immediately stepped forward with smiles on their faces.

The two men, one on each side, moved to surround Widow Zhao.

Widow Zhao struggled fiercely, cursing incessantly, "Get out, you bunch of bastards, get out!"

"Go ahead and curse me, the harsher you curse, the better!" A man licked his lips and said with a twisted smile.

Unexpectedly, just as he finished speaking, a roar suddenly came from outside the courtyard gate.

"Damn it, your Zhou family has no shame, huh?"

Tian Cong stormed into the courtyard, and as he spoke, he stepped forward and shoved the two men aside.

"Zhou Hao, I warned you before not to mess around. If you don't get out of here today, believe me, I'll break both your legs!"

"Oh, these days, someone still dares to speak like a widow? Don't they care about their reputation?" The middle-aged woman saw Tian Cong appear, but instead of panicking, she calmly mocked him.

Unexpectedly, although Tian Cong was shy, Qian Jiali and the others who came with him were not to be trifled with!

"The Zhou family is truly shameless. What? You're allowed to bully a widow, but no one else is allowed to speak up for her, is that it?"

"Sister, what's that saying again? 'When a person is shameless enough, they are invincible.' Aunt Zhou, no wonder you're so powerful, and no one in the village dares to mess with you. So that's why?"

"You...you two vile women, what right do you have to talk to me like that?" Being cursed to her face, Aunt Zhou went crazy and blurted out the curses without thinking!

"Snapped!"

But the next second, a crisp slap suddenly broke the solemn atmosphere.

Ye Chen flashed and appeared directly in front of Aunt Zhou, raising his hand to slap her!

"Who are you calling a slut?"

Ye Chen asked coldly, his sharp gaze sweeping across the entire room. He was here today to support Tian Cong!

Aunt Zhou is simply courting death, scolding her own woman right in front of her. Isn't that asking for a beating?

"You... Ye Chen, I'm warning you, don't think you can act arrogantly just because you have a little money. You believe me...?"

Aunt Zhou touched her cheek, and it took her a long time to react. She pointed at Ye Chen and was about to threaten him!

Ye Chen didn't tolerate Aunt Zhou at all. Seeing that she still had the strength to speak, he kicked her without saying a word.

With just one kick, Aunt Zhou was knocked to the ground.

"Stop talking the talk, show some real action if you're really capable!"

"I don't know what you're capable of, but I do know that if you don't leave, I'll teach you a lesson!"

Ye Chen rubbed his hands together, coldly looking at Aunt Zhou. As soon as he finished speaking, he made a move to step forward!

Zhou Hao, who was standing to the side, then realized what was happening and rushed forward to protect his mother behind him. At the same time, he stretched out a hand to shove Ye Chen.

But he was no match for Ye Chen at all!

"what……"

In an instant, Ye Chen seized Zhou Hao's wrist, and with a gentle twist, Zhou Hao's joint was firmly gripped by Ye Chen. A sharp pain shot through him, causing him to let out a scream!

"Stop fighting! Stop fighting! Let's go, let's go!"

Seeing that even her son couldn't gain the upper hand, Aunt Zhou finally bowed her head and begged Ye Chen for mercy repeatedly.

"Get out! I'm telling you right now, from this day forward, Zhao Xiuli is under my brother Tian Cong's protection. If you dare to cause any more trouble, I'll burn your house down!"

Seeing Zhou Hao's forehead covered in sweat and his face pale, Ye Chen finally released his grip.

Seeing the three of them huddle together and flee in panic, Ye Chen spoke up directly and uttered a harsh remark.

Aunt Zhou shuddered, turned around and glared fiercely at Zhao Xiuli, but in the end she didn't dare to say another word. She could only drag her son and leave in a hurry.

"Thank you so much, I'm so grateful to you all today!"

Seeing that she was safely out of danger, Zhao Xiuli burst into tears and immediately bowed her head to express her gratitude.

Tian Cong offered words of comfort, but dared not move at all, placing his hands on his chest, clearly showing a sense of helplessness.

"Sister Zhao, don't cry. By the way, the three of us have a question for you!"

At the crucial moment, it was Tian Xiaohui who stepped up, smiling as she walked forward, took Zhao Xiuli's hand, and led her directly into the room.

Upon seeing this, Qian Jiali and Luo Ling quickly followed.

Seeing the four women gathered together, Tian Cong couldn't help but feel uneasy, his face tense.

"Ye Chen, do you think this will work? Won't your sister-in-law and the others spread rumors?"

"I'm a little scared, what if..."

"Brother Tian Cong, I'll just ask you one question: if Widow Zhao were willing to marry you, would you be willing to marry her?" Ye Chen shook his head and interrupted.

Without hesitation, Tian Cong immediately assured him, "Of course I'm willing! If I weren't willing, I wouldn't be here today!"

"Then you can just wait here. Xiaohui is gentle, Jiali is steady, and Luoling is full of clever ideas. With the three of them helping out, they'll definitely secure your marriage today!"

Ye Chen patted Tian Cong on the shoulder and immediately comforted him. Then, the two of them simply started tidying up the yard.

Half an hour later, the messy things in the yard were arranged neatly. Tian Cong was rubbing his hands, not knowing what to do, when Tian Xiaohui finally came out.

"Brother Tian Cong, it's done!"
