Wang Dahu and Wang Erhu also showed guilty expressions.
To hide their guilt, they glared at Ye Qingshan with anger.
"What nonsense are you talking about, you little brat!"
"How dare you slander my sister's innocence? Are you looking for death?"
Seeing the two strong men in front of him, Ye Qingshan was frightened back to his original form.
His body trembled unconsciously.
"What are you doing? Are you going to hit me?"
"This is Qingshi Village, not your Dawang Village, and am I wrong?"
"Has Wang Zhaodi done any work since she married me?"
"Has she stayed in my house for more than three days?"
Ye Qingshan's words made Wang Zhaodi and her brother and sister's faces darken even more.
Seeing the two brothers about to fight, Ye Qingshan ran behind Wang Dajiao and said
, "Mom, run! Or you'll get beaten!"
It must be said that Ye Qingshan was as filial as ever, protecting his own mother.
Wang Dajiao had just thought her son had changed, but she didn't expect his toughness to last more than five seconds.
"Brother, this bastard is slandering my innocence, teach him a lesson!"
"Mom, run! Why are you still standing there?"
But by now, Wang Dajiao's legs were numb with fear and she couldn't move at all.
Ye Qingshan had wanted to run away by himself, but when he saw that Wang Dajiao didn't run away, he couldn't abandon her.
After all, she was his own mother.
"Little beast, kneel down on the ground and slap my sister in the face to apologize. We can consider being gentler."
At this time, Wang Sangou and Wang Xiaolang also surrounded him.
"Brother, brother, why waste time talking to them? Just slap them in the face."
With four strong men coming down, Ye Qingshan couldn't run away even if he wanted to.
"Brother, brother, brother, I was wrong."
"Can you please stop hitting me?"
Ye Qingshan was regretting it so much now. If he had known earlier, he would not have confronted Wang Zhaodi in a fit of rage.
These strong men in front of him might really beat him up.
"Stop claiming relatives like that! Who's your brother?"
"Hurry up and apologize with a slap in the face! Don't fight us!"
"Da Hu, we're all family. Is there any need to be so ruthless?"
Seeing her son about to be beaten again, Wang Da Jiao finally recovered and pleaded for him.
"You old bastard, if you don't want to be beaten, just get out of here."
Hearing Wang Da Hu's words, Wang Da Jiao felt as if she had been granted amnesty, and she withdrew with a smile.
"Son, just do as they say and apologize to your wife."
"Then take a few more hits from them, and everything will be fine."
Okay, Wang Da Jiao had some maternal love, but not much.
"Mom, so many people are here today. How can I live without you kneeling to them?"
Indeed, most of Qingshi Village's eighty-plus people were working in the kiln.
Anyone with a bit of fighting ability had been called in by Aunt Huang to help.
"Wow, my house is bustling!"
Ye Ming, clutching the specially-prized Longquan sword, followed by Su Xiaorong and Aunt Huang.
"Brothers, Ye Ming is back, you guys go ahead and get busy."
Seeing Ye Qingshan's cowardly look, Wang Dahu kicked him directly and knocked him to the ground.
He also spat at him.
"Bah, get out of here!"
A hint of ruthlessness flashed in the corner of Ye Qingshan's eyes, and then he pulled Wang Dahu out of the door of Ye Ming's house.
"Are you Ye Ming?"
The four brothers of the Wang family looked at Ye Ming with displeasure. Just when they wanted to surround Ye Ming, they were stopped by the villagers of Qingshi Village.
"Don't hurt Brother Ye Ming."
Yang Xiaohui, who had been hiding in the crowd, also rushed to Ye Ming and opened her arms to protect him.
Although she was also very scared, Ye Ming gave her such a good life and saved her and her father's life.
Now is the time to repay her gratitude, and she still plucked up the courage to stand in front of Ye Ming.
"You bastards, get out of here if you don't want to die!"
"We're only looking for Ye Ming."
"I'm putting this out there. You old, weak, sick, and disabled people are nothing but us five brothers and sisters!"
Even with Wang Dahu's words, Liu Dahai and the others didn't retreat.
Ye Ming was now the God of Wealth of Qingshi Village, the breadwinner.
If it weren't for Ye Ming, who knows how many people would have starved to death.
"Everyone, I appreciate your kindness, but don't worry, they're no match for me."
Ye Ming gently patted Yang Xiaohui's shoulder.
"Xiaohui, get behind me."
Yang Xiaohui shook her head. "No, these bad guys are going to hurt you!"
"Listen to me, brother, or I won't be able to take action later."
With that, Ye Ming placed the Longquan sword on Wang Dahu.
This startled everyone.
"Ye Ming, Ye Ming actually has a sword!"
While Wang Dahu was intimidated by Ye Ming, Su Xiaorong quickly pulled Yang Xiaohui behind him, making room for Ye Ming.
"Big Brother!"
Seeing her big brother held by Ye Ming's sword, Wang Zhaodi panicked.
"Ye Ming, you're carrying weapons privately—that's a capital offense!"
"I advise you to put down your sword. We can talk things over."
It was common knowledge that carrying weapons privately was a capital offense, but the government wouldn't bother to investigate if it was just a sword.
"Hehehe, do you think I'm scared?"
"I'm not afraid to tell you, I've killed bandits with this sword."
"Even reckless men like you, I really don't take you seriously."
Ye Ming's eyes were filled with murderous intent, frightening Wang Dahu like a big cat.
"Let our big brother go, you beast!"
Wang Erhu and his three brothers tried to move forward, but Wang Dahu shouted them down.
"Don't come over here! Do you want me dead?"
"Big Brother!"
"Back off!"
Ye Ming breathed a sigh of relief at the sight of these strong men.
A reckless man is a reckless man. These are honest people. He really didn't dare to kill them.
If he did, even Cui Xian wouldn't be able to protect himself.
He'd just been trying to scare them, but he'd actually fooled them.
"Now you can tell me, why are you here at my house?"
"We're here to demand justice for my sister. You assaulted her for no reason."
"And now you're wielding a sword to assault someone. If we take you to the government, you'll get nothing."
"Why don't you each give us ten taels of silver, and we'll let this go?"
Ye Ming was amused by these idiots. This guy's life depended on him now.
And they dared to ask for money.
"Ye Ming, give us ten taels of silver each, and we'll let this go."
"And let my brother go now!"
The people of Qingshi Village were instantly enraged by Wang Zhaodi and her brother's outrageous demands.
"Ten taels each, why don't you just go and rob her!"
Ye Ming wasn't going to give them any slack.
"Don't force me to kill you. Liuzhou County is in such chaos right now. At worst, I'll just kill you all and take my wife to Liangzhou."
"Don't think I wouldn't dare!"
Ye Ming said, applying gentle pressure, and blood splattered on Wang Dahu's neck.
"Ahhh, Ye Ming, we were wrong, don't kill me!"
"Hehe, get out of here right now, or I'll kill you!"
Seeing that Ye Ming didn't seem to be joking, Wang Zhaodi and the others could only grit their teeth and swallow their anger.
"Little sisters, hurry up and leave, we don't want this money."
Although they said so, they were actually thinking about going to the county government office to report Ye Ming.
"Big brother!"
"Hey, let's go!"
When Ye Ming drove Wang Zhaodi and her siblings away, Ye Qingshan was planning how to take revenge on her.
"Mom, I have to divorce that bitch Wang Zhaodi. I've discovered that she's been cheating for a long time."
"Hehe, what are you going to do with her?"
"Last time I asked you to find someone to deal with that bitch Su Xiaorong, and now there's no news at all."
Hearing Wang Dajiao's complaints, Ye Qingshan was also very dissatisfied.
"Mom, that's because Li Wen and the others have become bandits. I saw them last time I went to Mr. Zhou's house."
"They said Mr. Zhou gave them some money to become bandits."
"The village should be built now. When the time comes, I will ask them to come down the mountain and kill Ye Ming and Wang Zhaodi!"
