Chapter 174 Who is the real culprit (2)_1

Seeing that no one sympathized with them and some even wore looks of relief, Yang Mengchen raised an eyebrow—it seemed Liao Xiaofu had aroused public outrage.

"Was Liao Xiaofu often drunk?"

"Every time he came back from the town, he was totally drunk," Dai Qiangsheng answered eagerly. "He'd drink with or without reason at home too. He simply couldn't be happy without alcohol."

"Have you seen how Liao XIaofu abused his wife and son?"

"He'd strip Er Dan naked and beat him with thin rattan strips until the boy was bruised and unconscious before stopping. As for the Lady of the Liao family, aside from beating and kicking her, he'd also use hot charcoal to burn her and stab her with scissors; his methods were endless and he was like a madman."

The villagers listened and seethed with righteous indignation. While they sympathized with Fang Qin and her son, they abhorred Liao Xiaofu deeply—such a person was worse than pigs and dogs!
