Extorting Money

Lu Jiao's face turned cold subconsciously. Xie Yunjin suffered from internal bleeding in his spleen, despite that he had forced himself to get out of bed. His spleen was severely injured, so he vomited blood.

Lu Jiao then turned to face the four little boys who stood in front of the courtyard. They all had messy hair and disheveled clothes, and all four of the little boys had wounds on their faces.

The four little boys felt wronged for no reason when they saw Lu Jiao appear, and they burst into tears with a woo.

Lu Jiao came over to the four little children, reached out and touched their heads, then turned around and walked to Xie Yunjin's side, held him in her arms and went to the east bedroom.

For no obvious reason, when Xie Yunjin saw her appear, he felt relieved. At the same time, he started to feel dizzy.

However, he insisted on looking at Lu Jiao and said, "Don't be polite to them."

Xie Yunjin knew that the current Lu Jiao was very powerful. He said this to make Lu Jiao "take care" of Widow Li's family.

Lu Jiao naturally understood what he meant, and nodded solemnly, "I know what to do. Have a good rest. Don't worry, I won't spare them."

Xie Yunjin breathed a sigh of relief and passed out as soon as she finished speaking.

When Lu Jiao looked at him, she realised that this man had been holding on for a long time, but now he really could not hold on any longer.

If she hadn't been conditioning his body with the spiritual spring water, he would have been unable to support it long ago.

But with her around, it's not a big deal.

Lu Jiao's brows furrowed, and she dripped the spiritual spring water into Xie Yunjin's mouth as quickly as she could. She dripped even more this time. Anyway, Xie Yunjin had passed out and wouldn't know that she had fed him the spiritual spring water.

Xie Yunjin's body will quickly recover if he drinks the spiritual spring water directly.

Just as Lu Jiao was feeding, outside the yard, Widow Li's screaming was heard.

"Damn fat woman, this is not the end. Come see what the four little beasts in your family have done to our eldest girl and the second girl, so your family has to lose money. If you don't lose money today, this matter is not over. We won't just let it go."

As soon as Widow Li finished speaking, Lu Jiao heard the second child's shrill cry and scolding.

"You old widow of a mourning star, don't try to swindle our family's money. Our family's money is set aside for daddy's medical treatment. It's your eldest girl who came to our house to steal things. They deserve to be beaten."

After the second child finished crying and scolding, the third child's sloppy voice rang out, "God, they'll not let us live a good life. We can't live past this day. God, take us away."

In the room, regardless of the fact that Lu Jiao was angry, the corners of her lips twitched when she heard the second child and the third child crying and scolding.

At the same time, she felt that the cries and scolding of the two children were somewhat familiar. Lu Jiao thought about it for a moment, and realized that the original owner was just like this, so the two guys must have learned this in the family.

Lu Jiao thought about it while striding out of the house.

Outside the house, Widow Li rushed towards the two little boys while scolding them.

"You little beast, you dare to scold me. See if I don't kill you two dogs. Your father is paralyzed. Your mother will not want you soon. Do you still dare yell at this old lady? Would you like to see how this old lady beats you to death?"

When the old widow finished speaking, she wanted to rush over to beat them, but was stopped by the villagers. The second grandmother's family protected the quadruplets and prevented Widow Li from hitting them.

Xie Xiaobao pointed at Widow Li angrily and started yelling, "Your family's Daniu and Erniu came over to steal things, but you still come to reason, and apart from Daniu and Erniu, who came to steal things, your family's Wang Gouyu also came to beat the four children. Your Gouyu is ten years old, and you don't think it's shameful to gang up to beat four little children, but I still despise it."

Widow Li cursed as she listened to Xie Xiaobao's words. "Who saw my Gouyu beat people? Who saw it? Who saw it, you motherfucker? I only saw my eldest girl and the second girl being beaten till they became so miserable, so their family needs to make up for our loss."

"Do you want our family to lose money?" Lu Jiao said as she walked out, looking at Widow Li.

Before Widow Li could say anything, Shen Xiu, her daughter, stretched out her hand and pulled her mother back, "Mother, go back, don't cause any trouble."

Widow Li slapped Shen Xiu's hand away and scolded, "Go away."

When she finished, she pulled out Shen Daniu and Shen Erniu, who were standing behind her.

If the quadruplets had injuries on their faces, Shen Daniu and Shen Erniu could be described as being even worse. They were wounded all over. Their faces were smeared with blood. One had a missing tooth, while the other had a broken nose. As they were being pulled by Widow Li, they couldn't even stand properly.

Lu Jiao could tell right away that it was absolutely impossible for the two girls to be beaten by her four children. The four little boys were malnourished and lacked strength. How could they possibly beat two people like this?

So it's very likely that the Shen family beat them and then planted dirt on the four children in order to extract money.

Widow Li pointed at Shen Daniu and Shen Erniu, looked at Lu Jiao, and said, "Take a look at what happened to my two children. Their faces are hurt, their teeth are missing, and their eyes are swollen. Why don't you foot the bill for their treatment?"

Lu Jiao cast a glance towards the two girls, thinking that they had bullied the four children and had ended up being beaten by the Shen family. Lu Jiao felt that they had deserved it.

She ignored Widow Shen and turned to look towards her four children. "What exactly is going on? Come on, tell me."

After listening to Lu Jiao's words, the Eldest Child immediately took a step forward and said,

"Today you asked us to keep an eye on the house, and we kept looking at the kitchen, only to find that Shen Daniu had slipped into the kitchen from our backyard. She went into the kitchen and took our pheasant and the eggs and wanted to run away, but I didn't let her run away, so she called her cousins Wang Gouyu and Shen Erniu from outside."

"Then the three of them united to beat us. We couldn't beat them, so we screamed. They were frightened, and all three of them ran away. Then their grandmother came to us in the evening and asked that we lose some money."

Although the eldest child was young, his speech was clear. As soon as he said it, the onlookers understood what had happened.

Many people also speculated about Widow Li's thoughts. Isn't it because Yunjin's wife became rich by selling wild boar meat, so Widow Li wanted to swindle others of their money? How could the four children possibly beat Shen Daniu and Shen Erniu to the point that they were so badly hurt?

It's just that Widow Li, on the other hand, was a pain to deal with. She made it clear that she intended to rob Yunjin's family of their money, and she didn't even think twice about abusing her granddaughters like this.

Many people in the crowd became worried as they looked at Lu Jiao.

Lu Jiao remembered the day the original owner died. The original owner had suspected that the quadruplets had eaten her eggs. Shen Daniu, it seems, was the one who stole the eggs the first time and then came again to steal them for the second time.

"Widow Li, where are you standing now?" Lu Jiao said in a deep voice, sneering at Widow Xie.

"Your home," Widow Li said strangely.

Lu Jiao remarked while sneering, "Let's not discuss whether our family's children injured your children. Instead, let's just talk about the fact that the three children from your family came to our house with the intent of stealing, and so they deserve to be beaten. Not to mention badly wounded, even if they were killed, they would deserve it."

"Why don't you go to the county government office and ask why shouldn't a thief who steals people's belongings and is accidentally beaten and seriously wounded be punished, and let's not ignore the fact that they were still beaten to such a state by a group of four little boys?"

Lu Jiao walked towards Widow Li as she spoke, "You all went to some other person's house to steal, and you're all shameless and want to deceive people. Haha, it's really quite beautiful to think about."
