Chapter 217: Being a village chief, isn't it nice?
Xue Ren walked back in anger. He had finally gotten close to Shui's father and had also struck up a conversation with Shui Yuzhen, but in the end, it was all because of that talkative matchmaker Wang, who had ruined his entire image.
That gossipy woman has been gossiping behind people's backs all the time. If I see her, I will definitely pull out her tongue and see how she can continue to talk nonsense.
As he was thinking, he heard a splash of water, which happened to pour all over Xue Ren. The water had a foul smell, which made Xue Ren furious. He shouted, "Who is it?"
He looked up and saw Matchmaker Wang upstairs. She hadn't had time to retract her head. Seeing that she was discovered, Matchmaker Wang could only smile awkwardly, "Mr. Xue, I'm sorry, I just splashed the water and didn't notice you passing by downstairs.
She really didn't notice that there was someone downstairs. She had just washed her feet and the foot cloth at the same time, and then she just splashed the water down. Anyway, her small second floor was not on the main street and usually there were not many people passing by. Whoever was splashed would have to consider himself unlucky.
Looking at the face of Matchmaker Wang, which was full of flesh and trying hard to smile, Xue Ren couldn't help himself any longer. He must teach this fat old woman a lesson today.
So he relied on the Kung Fu he had learned outside and with a lot of effort, he climbed up to the second floor of Wang the Matchmaker's house. Wang the Matchmaker was stunned by this scene. She thought she could just smile a few times and be done with it, but she didn't expect Xue Ren to climb up directly. By the time she reacted and closed the door, it was too late.
Xue Ren came up and saw that Matchmaker Wang was barefoot with a foot cloth in her hand. He naturally knew what the water that had been thrown on him was for washing. His stomach churned and he felt nauseous and angry.
"Well, you old fat woman, I was just about to settle the score with you, and you dared to throw your stinking foot washing water at me, your grandfather. I will beat you to death today!"
Xue Ren rolled up his sleeves and ran towards Matchmaker Wang, but Matchmaker Wang was frightened. Xue Ren's fist could kill people, but she reacted quickly and ran away in fear.
He shouted, "Murder! Murder! Xue Ren is crazy. I just poured water on you, and you wanted to kill someone!"
This was Wang Matchmaker's house. She was familiar with the place and ran very fast. Xue Ren chased her from behind, cursing, "I've wanted to beat you up for a long time. I let you gossip about me and say that I hurt my elder brother. If I catch you today, I will definitely smash your mouth and see if you can still talk nonsense in the future!"
As he said this, he took a big step forward.
"Sir, sir, look, they are fighting, hahahaha."
Tuan Tuan, who had been paying attention to Xue Ren, was now laughing and clapping in front of the screen. Although Matchmaker Wang was fat and looked clumsy, she was quite agile when she ran. Besides, this was in her house, so Xue Ren had missed her just now. Seeing that Matchmaker Wang was about to run downstairs, he quickly got up and chased after her.
Si Ying looked for a while and felt that it was about the same, so she went down to find someone. The spiritual energy in this world was thin, and coupled with the restrictions of the laws of nature, she could not use magic, so she had to go there in person to help them.
Si Ying took the embroidery out and headed for other women's homes.
Here, matchmaker Wang was about to run to the door. She was secretly delighted. Once she got out of the door, Xue Ren wouldn't be able to do anything to her. She would go to the government to sue Xue Ren and have him thrown into jail.
Just as her hand touched the door, a strong force came from behind and pulled her back.
Matchmaker Wang watched the wooden door getting farther and farther away from her, and the joy in her heart turned into deep fear. She was lifted up by Xue Ren and dragged back.
"Pa! Pa!" Xue Ren slapped Matchmaker Wang hard several times. In an instant, Matchmaker Wang's old face swelled up like a pig's head. Blood flowed from her face and she cried and begged for mercy.
"I told you to keep running, you old fat woman spewing shit from your mouth. Run, I'll smash your mouth and see how you can talk nonsense."
"Ah! Ah! Woohoo, I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again. Master Xue, please spare my life! My old bones can't withstand a beating. Someone might die. Ahhhh!"
Matchmaker Wang felt both pain and fear. Xue Ren was beaten by her own elder brother until he lay half dead on the bed. She was really afraid that Xue Ren would beat her to death. Her husband died early and she had no children. She was the only one at home. If she died, no one would probably know.
Xue Ren ignored her cries and pleas for mercy and just vented his anger by punching Matchmaker Wang.
"Ah! Ah! Matchmaker Wang screamed again. No matter what she said, Xue Ren would not let her go. Her eyes were swollen and she seemed to see her deceased husband in the dim light.
Just when Matchmaker Wang was in despair, the door was pushed open forcefully, and Si Ying walked in with a group of women. The group of people had come to Matchmaker Wang to see the embroidery, but when they saw this scene, they were so scared that they screamed and ran out quickly.
Xue Ren also reacted when he saw this. Being seen by so many people, he quickly stood up and prepared to run away. Suddenly, he felt a pain in his calf and fell straight to the ground.
If Mr. Shi was present, he would definitely say, yes, it was this familiar feeling. At that moment, he felt a pain in his calf and then fell straight into the pile of cow dung.
Soon, the government officials arrived and took both of them away.
Although Matchmaker Wang looked like a pig's head, fortunately Si Ying went there early and her injuries were not serious. Except for her face which was swollen like a pig's head, the other injuries on her body were minor. She was healed after being bandaged with some medicine prescribed by her relative who was a doctor.
Xue Ren was thrown into jail because he broke into a private house and beat up Wang the matchmaker.
But he was not afraid, because he did not kill Matchmaker Wang, and his brother Qin was a high-ranking official. As long as he did not kill anyone, he would be able to get him out.
Sure enough, within a few days, news came down from above that after some time, when the storm had died down, Xue Ren was released.
Si Ying naturally couldn't just watch Xue Ren being released, as that would be a waste of her time, so she started spreading some news.
Soon, the story of Xue Ren and Wang the Matchmaker spread in the town, but the version was changed, saying that Xue Ren broke into Wang the Matchmaker's house because he saw that there was no man in her family and intended to do something bad to her. Wang the Matchmaker refused to obey and was beaten black and blue. Then, when she was stripped of her clothes by Xue Ren, she was seen by a group of women who wanted to sell her embroidery, and was reluctantly bullied by Xue Ren.
In fact, when this rumor was first spread, no one believed it. Matchmaker Wang was already middle-aged and fat. Although Xue Ren drank, made trouble and beat people, he was indeed good-looking and tall.
Then some people who disliked Matchmaker Wang said that it must be Matchmaker Wang who took advantage of Xue Rensheng's tall and handsome figure and deliberately seduced him when he was drunk. After the affair, Xue Rensheng woke up, regretted it deeply, and became angry and ashamed, so he beat Matchmaker Wang.
So the story became more and more bizarre, and people would automatically fix the problematic parts in their imagination, and then the story seemed to be real. Matchmaker Wang had been gossiping about other people's families for years, and for the first time she felt the horror of spreading rumors. Wherever she went, people pointed fingers at her, and she dared not go out anymore.
The fact that she secretly helped men and women to have secret meetings under the pretext of selling embroidery was also exposed. Many married women like the original owner in the previous life were cheated by her and went to the government to sue her.
Then Matchmaker Wang was thrown into jail, and happened to become Xue Ren's neighbor.
