Chapter 1655: Chapter 1657: Stunned Everyone
When Xiaocui’s mother came over to our house to make a scene just now, he’d been in his room the whole time and hadn’t come out.
No matter what, he and Xiaocui’s mother counted as the same generation, and he’s a man while the other side is a woman; it wouldn’t be proper for him to splash around and howl like a shrew with a woman.
For this kind of thing his old wife should be the one to step up, but that woman of his is soft and timid, not of much use.
So this matter could only rely on the few children at home.
Whatever the children said or did, even if they crossed the line a bit, it wouldn’t turn into anything too serious.
Luckily, the few children in the family aren’t exactly soft either.
In fact, he knew that even if the Li Family didn’t come out, the children at home would basically be able to drive Xiaocui’s mother away.
After a while, the whole family squeezed into the room.
They all called out one after another, "Dad!"
Old Father Yang nodded, then looked at Yang Dong and said, "Fourth, these last two days, what exactly happened up in the mountain? Hurry up and tell the family."
Right now everyone’s eyes were on Yang Dong, wanting to know what had actually happened.
The whole day had been a mess, everyone busy till their heels hit the back of their heads, there really hadn’t been time to ask about the beginning and end of it all.
They’d picked up a little here and there, but it was all bits and pieces; nobody knew the specifics.
Now they’d finally found a gap in the day, enough to really get a clear picture of this matter.
So everyone just listened as Yang Dong laid out what had happened.
Starting from when he saw Yang Daniu, how he went up the mountain, how he ran into Li Chuntao, how he caught Yang Daniu and Yang Xiaocui having a secret meeting, how the two of them went to catch them in the act, and how a fake fight turned into a real one.
How Yang Xiaocui and Yang Daniu clawed at each other, and how in the end they even pulled out a knife.
How in the end Li Chuntao was hurt, and how she fell!
"That’s how it went. Yang Xiaocui pretended to faint just to force me to agree to the marriage. When Yang Daniu found out about it, he threatened Yang Xiaocui, made her give him Silver. Yang Xiaocui asking me for medicine and the Silver hairpin was all for that Yang Daniu."
"But Yang Daniu still wasn’t satisfied and kept threatening Yang Xiaocui. That’s when Yang Xiaocui’s bad intentions kicked in, and she wanted to drag Li Chuntao into the mud with her."
Speaking to this point, Yang Dong slammed a fist down on the table. "Of all people, they shouldn’t have dragged her into it."
"I was furious at the time, so I went for the kill. Li Chuntao came over to pull me back, and I wasn’t paying attention. I just flung her off like that, and it just so happened that right beside us was a cliff, so she just fell right down in front of my eyes."
"Thinking back now, this whole thing was orchestrated by Yang Xiaocui. It must have been that she wanted to get rid of Yang Daniu, that’s why she led us to that spot. Because when I woke up down below, I saw Yang Daniu. By rights he should’ve still been up on top, but he’d fallen down as well. It had to be that Yang Xiaocui pushed him, just to silence him. She must’ve been thinking that if the three of us all fell and died, no one would ever know what she’d done."
Yang Dong’s words left everyone in the room stunned; none of them had expected that something so earth-shaking could have happened up on that mountain.
And that Yang Xiaocui—everyone had thought she was just a farm girl, but who would have thought her heart was that black, vicious enough to go as far as killing to destroy the evidence.
Thinking about it now, if someone like that were married into the family, what good days could the Yang Family still have?
Who knows how she’d scheme against them behind their backs?
"So, Dad, this marriage has to be broken off. Not only broken off, I also have to seek justice for Li Chuntao, send that woman in, and make sure she gets the punishment she deserves."
