Jiang Yue replied, “First, this is not my ax. It belongs to the family. Second, your method was better than mine, so why should I blame you? Third, you know this family very well and what to do best anyways.”

Because he understood his family’s dynamic, he could solve the problem with such quick thinking.

“You’ll understand after staying here for a long time as well.” Xue Yan smiled.

Jiang Yue opened her mouth and was about to say something, but Li Hehua quickly walked over, “Xue Yan, why did you put the ax beside Jiang Yue’s feet? What if you hurt Jiang Yue? Give it to me. I’ll put it away. Don’t randomly take the ax in the future. You don’t know how scary your expression just now was.”

Li He Hua took the ax and left.

Xue Yan touched her face slowly and muttered, “Was I really that scary…?” It seemed as if he didn’t know anything about it.

“Were you really going to cut them?” Jiang Yue suddenly asked.

Xue Yan was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and forced a smile, “I don’t know,” After a long while, he added one word in a low voice, “Perhaps…”

For some reason, Jiang Yue didn’t really like the way he said it. She seemed to think that he was a gentleman and should not have blood on his hands. Yet… she didn’t say anything.

Outside the courtyard, Xue Dagui’s howls could still be heard.

In the courtyard, no one wanted to tend to him.

Xue Wufu couldn’t help but say happily, “He deserves it!”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The neighbors had already come out to take a look because of the noise, but before they even reached the entrance of Xue Dafu’s courtyard, they saw Xue Zhuzi, Zhang Meili, and Xue Dagui running out of Xue Dafu’s courtyard like cowards. Everyone was so happy that they almost laughed out loud, thinking that the three of them deserved it.

The three of them rubbed their bodies in pain. It was obvious that they had been hit hard.

For some reason, Zhang Meili’s hair was disheveled, and she looked like a crazy woman. She looked extremely miserable.

Xue Zhuzi felt that his body was the most painful because Xue Erfu actually had the intention of beating him to death.

Xue Dagui’s body was in pain as well, but he was used to being hit by his father. He didn’t care if his body hurt or not. Instead, he went to find something to stand on. He leaned on his brother’s wall and shouted, afraid that his brother would cut off all ties with him. He did not expect a broom to come flying his way. In order to avoid the broom, he slipped and fell from the mat, landing with his four limbs facing the sky.

The surrounding neighbors burst into laughter.

“What are you guys laughing at!” Zhang Meili couldn’t help but curse.

“Get lost, get lost,” Xue Zhuzi also cursed.

The neighbors didn’t even bother to pay attention to Zhang Meili and Xue Zhuzi.

Xue Dagui didn’t care if anyone laughed. He simply sat on the ground and howled to the sky over his brother’s anger.

“Those who don’t know would think that you’re wailing.” Someone said in amusement. “You’re so heartless. Your brother has always been so good to you. When you need help, he has always helped you. No matter how hard the days at home are, he’ll always find a way to help you. You, on the other hand, never cared whether his family’s days are hard or not. For so many years, you’ve been insatiable again and again. This time, you’ve finally opened your eyes.”

This person’s voice was so loud that it could be heard both in and outside the courtyard.

When Xue Yan and the others heard this, they all looked at Xue Dafu with worry in their eyes.

Xue Dafu was already fine, but he didn’t expect his neighbor to be on his side. He couldn’t help but shed two drops of tears almost instantly.
