Don t Be Shy Aloof Uncle - C338
Originally, Ling Chen was only holding onto his pockets with one hand, standing beside Zhang Xiao Xiao in a defensive posture.
However, when the alcoholic’s impudent gaze was revealed, Ling Chen’s expression darkened.
Zhang Xiao Xiao squatted on the ground and asked Ling Chen in confusion.
“Keep your eyes open, or I won’t mind digging it out for you.”
His dark eyes seemed to be brewing with a tempest, and his voice also carried a terrifying aura.
After seeing Ling Chen’s methods and the extent of his viciousness, the drunkard finally became obedient.
Zhang Xiao Xiao roughly understood what happened just now from Ling Chen’s words. For this kind of thing, it would be strange if Ling Chen was not angry.
She did not pay any more attention to this matter. Instead, she said to the mother and daughter, “Don’t be afraid, he can’t hit women. Tell me, what happened to you? Maybe I can help you. ”
It was unknown if the young mother really believed in Zhang Xiao Xiao, or if she was shocked by his violent temper. This time, he finally opened his mouth obediently.
“I was sold to him. I don’t want to be married to him. He always hit me, and now he wants to sell the child for money to gamble on. ”
Zhang Xiao Xiao’s heart sank.
She had guessed this earlier, but now it was confirmed. She didn’t feel happy about her intelligence at all. All she felt was a heaviness in her heart.
The drunkard was afraid that these two foreigners would actually take his wife away, so all of his money was spent in vain. Thus, he forced himself to shout at Zhang Xiao Xiao and Ling Chen: “Don’t meddle in other people’s business, I spent money to buy her as my wife, and the child is also my child. You can’t care less what I want to do.”
In the face of his shouts, Ling Chen used his blade to calm him down.
Zhang Xiao Xiao had never thought that he would encounter such a thing once.
At this time, the thing she was most worried about was this circle, which basically did not have much interaction with the outside world. Sometimes, what people talked about was not the law, but some rules that were established by convention.
If these people all tacitly agreed to buy wives and sell children, then it would be impossible for her and Ling Chen to save this young mother and her child today.
On the other hand, if they were to forcefully do something, it was very likely that the villagers would attack them together. At that time, things would become troublesome.
Zhang Xiao Xiao looked at Ling Chen for help.
At this time, he could only see how Ling Chen would decide. If Ling Chen really didn’t want to cause him trouble, Zhang Xiao Xiao would still listen to his decision.
Ling Chen looked at her soothingly, then took out his phone and made a call.
“Hey, Zhou Cheng, come over here for a while. “I’m at the Village Head’s house right now. After I exit the door, I turn left and walk straight ahead.”
Zhang Xiao Xiao patted the young mother’s shoulder.
She said, “Don’t worry. We’ll think of a way to save you. ”
Zhang Xiao Xiao understood, if Ling Chen made this call, then he should be meddling in this matter.
Zhou Cheng came very quickly as he had ran all the way here.
When he saw the drunkard sitting on the ground like a dog, he immediately frowned.
“Mr. Ling, did he do something to offend you?”
That drunkard seemed to be very afraid of Zhou Cheng, but when he saw Zhou Cheng, he shrunk into a ball.
He explained to Zhou Cheng while trembling, “I didn’t do anything, they clearly beat me up the moment they came out.”
Zhou Cheng’s gaze landed on the mother and daughter pair who were squatting beside Zhang Xiao Xiao. They had tears and wounds on their faces.
If he still didn’t understand what was going on, then his brain would have grown up in vain.
“Why are you hitting your wife again?”
Zhou Cheng looked at the drunkard in disgust and questioned him, “I told you before, if you do this kind of thing again, I’ll send you to the police station.”
The drunk did not dare meet Zhou Cheng’s gaze. He lowered his head and looked at his dirty cloth shoes, still trying to defend himself: “I didn’t do anything. Besides, that’s my wife that I spent money on.
Ling Chen did not have the patience to listen to them.
He directly asked Zhou Cheng: “Zhou Cheng, do you know that this girl was bought back?”
“I know.”
Zhou Cheng looked at the young girl who was covered in injuries and nodded his head with a complicated expression.
Zhang Xiao Xiao asked in disbelief: “What era is this, why would such a thing happen? You actually watched him hit his wife and called the police? Then why didn’t he call the police when he bought his wife? ”
Zhou Cheng pursed his lips and said: “Miss Zhang, even the police cannot meddle in this matter. I know you guys want to help her, but I’d advise you not to. ”
Zhang Xiao Xiao asked indignantly: “We don’t care, but we’ll let this girl continue to be beaten up here? “Or are you afraid that after we manage it, you will no longer be able to buy a wife in this village? Can you tell me how many girls are sold here?”
An awkward expression appeared on Zhou Cheng’s face.
Zhou Cheng, who had always been calm and a little humble in front of Zhang Xiao Xiao and Ling Chen, suddenly looked a little angry at this moment.
“Miss Zhang, don’t speak nonsense. This is the only place for this kind of thing. ”
Perhaps it was because he was too angry, but Zhou Cheng’s voice had become a little hoarse.
With regards to his reasoning, Zhang Xiao Xiao found it hard to believe. If this was the only family, then no one would have reported this incident. Even his violence against his wife and children would have been ignored.
Just as Zhang Xiao Xiao was about to exchange a few more words with Zhou Cheng, the village chief suddenly ran over.
When the Village Chief came over and saw the situation in front of him, he slapped his thigh in anger, “Ouch, what the hell is this? Fourth Bro, why are you doing such a disgraceful thing again? ”
Zhang Xiao Xiao was already filled with anger, she directly asked the village chief.
“Village Head Uncle, are you just going to let the people in the village buy and sell?”
