Chapter 60 Turns Against Each Other in an Instant
Qi Tongwei grabbed a handful of candy and gave it to the little boy who was wearing open-crotch pants.
The little boy's small hands couldn't hold many.
When the other children saw this, they all ran over, scrambling to get the candy.
"Wang Erwa, come here quickly!"
A woman shouted "Son!" and the child quickly grabbed the candy and ran away.
The woman snatched the candy from her son's hand and slapped him twice on the bottom.
"Who gave you permission to eat things given to you by strangers?"
Qi Tongwei quickly stepped forward, "Big sister, don't worry, we're college students, just out for a stroll during our summer vacation."
The term "college student" carried considerable weight in the 90s.
Immediately, the women looked at them with less wariness.
Qi Tongwei grabbed another handful of candy and gave it to the woman, saying, "Sister, try some, it's guaranteed to be sweet."
The woman accepted the candy with a embarrassed expression.
"Try them all."
Qi Tongwei quickly grabbed a handful for the other women as well.
The women all accepted the candy; as the saying goes, "He who takes a gift is bound to be grateful," and they found the unfamiliar young man much more agreeable.
Ye Xuan suddenly thought of a term: friend of women.
Zhao Donglai had to admire Qi Tongwei's ability to build relationships with people; however, the kid was also quick to turn on them.
A woman asked curiously, "Young man, what's so interesting about the countryside? I've heard that you can have anything you want in the city."
Qi Tongwei quickly tried to ingratiate himself, "Big sister, the country is encouraging everyone to go out and work to earn money these days, why don't you give it a try?"
"My husband works away from home, and we have children to take care of."
"The grandparents can take care of the child; it'll be easier for them to earn money faster."
"What's so great about the city? It's full of bad people!" a woman cursed.
Qi Tongwei laughed and said, "Big sister, there are good and bad people everywhere. We can't condemn all city dwellers with one blow."
"City people are wicked; they're full of swindlers and they even traffic women."
The woman was about to continue speaking when another woman quickly pushed her.
Qi Tongwei noticed the woman's guilty expression. "Sister, this isn't the old society anymore. Who would dare to traffic women now?"
"Young man, there's nothing much to see on this mountain. You'd better hurry down."
A young woman, seeing that Ye Xuan was pretty, kindly reminded her that there were still several bachelors in the village.
"Wu Shun's wife, why are you in such a hurry to send him away? Young man, come to my house for a drink of water and a rest."
An elderly woman said warmly:
"Thank you, ma'am. Sorry to bother you then."
"No disturbance, no disturbance. This young lady is really beautiful; is she your wife?"
"Auntie has good taste. Don't we look like a perfect match?" Qi Tongwei said with a smile.
"A perfect match, a very perfect match."
Ye Xuan clenched her embroidered fist, wanting to beat Qi Tongwei, that shameless bastard, to death.
"Help, help..."
Suddenly, a woman's cries for help came from not far away.
The woman ran while shouting for help, and a man with a stick was chasing after her.
She hadn't run far when the man kicked her to the ground, and then proceeded to beat her wildly with a stick.
The stick was a vine covered with thorns.
The woman was covered in blood, and her white T-shirt was stained red.
"I was wrong, I was wrong, please stop hitting me, please stop hitting me!"
The woman was beaten so badly that she begged for mercy.
"You brat, stop hitting him!" the old woman roared.
Before Qi Tongwei could make a move, Zhao Donglai preemptively struck first.
"Stop hitting him! Hitting someone is illegal, don't you understand? You can't hit your wife either!"
The brat ignored him and continued hitting the woman. Zhao Donglai rushed over, trying to subdue the brat.
Mangwa swung his stick, but Zhao Donglai dodged to the side and then charged forward, knocking Mangwa to the ground.
Zhao Donglai tried to grab Mangwa's hand, but Mangwa was very strong and struggled desperately, extremely angry.
"I'm going to kill you! I'm going to kill you!"
"Qi Tongwei, what are you doing? Come and help!"
Zhao Donglai was starting to feel the strain; the brute strength of that brat meant that few people in the village could control him.
Qi Tongwei had a bad feeling; he feared something bad was about to happen.
Damn it, I can't worry about that now.
We can't just stand by and watch a woman get beaten to death.
Qi Tongwei ran over and shoved Mangwa's head to the ground. Mangwa got a mouthful of mud and almost couldn't breathe.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Zhao Donglai pressed his knee against Mangwa's back, firmly controlling Mangwa's two hands.
Ye Xuan quickly ran over to help the woman who had been beaten. The woman's body was covered in bruises, a shocking sight.
The woman clung tightly to Ye Xuan's arm, as if she had grasped a lifeline.
"Please, please save me! My name is Liu Guihua, from Jinshan County, Lüzhou. I'm not his wife; he kidnapped me."
"Please, please call the police for me, you absolutely must call the police!"
At this moment, Ye Xuan was completely stunned. She thought she was mentally prepared, but reality turned out to be even more cruel.
This woman, covered in wounds, must have endured unimaginable torment.
“Young lady, don’t listen to Mangwa’s wife’s nonsense. She’s a bit mentally unstable and often beats the child for no reason, which is why Mangwa is so angry that he hits her,” the old woman argued.
Liu Guihua became agitated, shouting, "I didn't lie, I didn't lie! I'm not mentally ill, I didn't hit the child! They're in cahoots! Don't believe her!"
"Wild boy's wife, do you have any conscience at all? If I hadn't kept Wild Boy in check, you would have been beaten to death!"
The old woman had the air of someone who had suffered a great injustice, but in reality, she was an accomplice.
"You old bastard, you'll die a horrible death! You'll die a horrible death! I'll haunt you even after I'm dead!"
Liu Guihua yelled at the old woman, and her mental state did seem to be somewhat problematic.
This was all pent-up anger from a long period of time, which was suddenly released when someone listened.
She had had enough of this life and would rather die than end it all, but she gave up on suicide so many times because she thought of her elderly parents.
"You widow, I see you don't appreciate kindness. From now on, I'm not going to care about you anymore. You deserve to be beaten to death!" the old woman said angrily.
"Please, please believe me. My father's name is Liu Dagu. He plays drums at weddings and funerals."
Liu Guihua pleaded with Ye Xuan, saying she didn't want to die, she wanted to live, and she wanted to go home to see her parents.
Ye Xuan was furious. "I will definitely take you home."
These words gave Liu Guihua hope to live.
Seeing that things were not going well, the old woman winked at another woman, who quickly ran to find someone.
Mangwa continued to struggle, seemingly unafraid of breaking his hand, which made Zhao Donglai somewhat hesitant.
Qi Tongwei sensed something was wrong and made a quick decision: he ran over and helped Liu Guihua up.
Let's go.
Ye Xuan instantly understood Qi Tongwei's meaning: once the men from the village arrived, they probably wouldn't be able to leave even if they wanted to.
What do you want to do?
The old woman quickly stopped Qi Tongwei.
Qi Tongwei said with a forced smile, "Auntie, this lady is injured. We'll take her to the hospital."
"Don't leave! Help! Someone's trying to steal Mangwa's wife!"
The old woman started shouting.
Without any hesitation, Qi Tongwei pushed the old woman to the ground, picked up Liu Guihua, and ran away.
The old woman was no pushover either; she grabbed Ye Xuan's leg.
Ye Xuan tried her best but couldn't break free, so she had no choice but to ask for help.
"Qi Tongwei, save me!"
