“Well said!” Ruyi and Ah Wei turned around and saw Li Yu getting out of the carriage. It turned out that Li Yu had also come looking for them because she was worried.

Ruyi and Ah Wei bowed. “Madam, you’re here!”

Li Yu looked at Ah Wei’s tattered clothes and bruised face and frowned. “How did you train your martial arts? How did you get beaten up like this?”

Ah Wei limped to Li Yu’s side and looked pitiful. “Madam, the Tian mother and son hit me.”

Li Yu looked at his pitiful appearance and said gently, “Alright, go back and apply some medication later. Then, ask Old Master to concoct some medicine for you.”

Ah Wei bared his teeth and smiled. “Thank you, Madam. I will cultivate well in the future.”

“Alright.” Li Yu walked in front of the Tian family. “Ruyi, this family stole the corn rice from the farm, right?”

“It’s true, Madam. They stole those corn seedlings. They were afraid that we would catch them red-handed, so they fed them to the cows.” Ruyi pointed at the few corn seedlings in Ah Wei’s hand. “I snatched these back.”

Li Yu nodded and looked at the white-haired and wrinkled village chief. “You’re the village chief of the Yang family village?

The village chief of the Yang Family Village cupped his hands at Li Yu. “I’m Yang Guozhi, the village chief of the Yang Family Village. What can I do for you, Madam?”

Li Yu looked at him and asked indifferently, ‘Why are you asking me? I want to ask you, the Tian family stole the corn seedlings on my farm and even injured the people in my residence. Why did you stop us from sending them to the officials?”

Village Chief Yang glanced at Li Yu and lowered his head, thinking to himself that he heard that this Madam had an extraordinary background, but he couldn’t afford to offend the Tian family. He could only smooth things over and not offend either side.

“Madam, I know that the Tian family was unreasonable at first. Think about it, they only stole some crops. You said that the people in your residence were injured by them, but the people in your residence also injured his family! What do you think? I’ll make them compensate you for your crops. Can you be magnanimous and spare them this time?”

Li Yu looked at Village Chief Yang and sneered. “You’re quite good at making peace. Unfortunately, I won’t fall for your tricks.” Li Yu looked at Ruyi. “Ruyi, send the Tian family to the government office and sue them for stealing rare crops and gathering to hurt people after the incident. They intended to destroy the crops.”

Ruyi bowed. “Yes, Madam.”

“Madam, why do you have to do this? You don’t know that the Tian family isn’t to be trifled with. Let’s each take a step back to prevent us from fighting in the future!” Village Chief Yang said to Li Yu awkwardly.

“You’re just an old fool who can’t tell right from wrong. You’re not worthy of being the village chief. I’ll propose to the government office to remove your village chief title and choose another capable person.”

“I just want everyone to be harmonious.” Village Chief Yang was so angry that his face turned red. “You’re too domineering!”

Li Yu looked at the villagers who were whispering from afar. “Let some people swallow their anger and compromise. Is this what you mean by getting along well? Then I’ll be domineering. What are you going to do?”

“Since you didn’t listen to my advice and the matter blows up, don’t blame me. At that time, whatever you do has nothing to do with me!” Village Chief Yang turned around and left angrily.

Seeing that the situation was bad, Tian Mazi hurriedly instructed the workers, “Go back to the manor and call for help.” He ran over and blocked Ruyi. “You’re not from the government office. What right do you have to arrest people?”

Ruyi sneered. “What right do we have to arrest him? You stole and destroyed our property. You didn’t repent after being caught red-handed and even dared to gather to hurt others. You brought it on yourself.” As he spoke, he grabbed Tian Mazi. “You’re not a good person either. You have a share in beating and stealing.”

Tian Mazi struggled and shouted, “My sister is Master Tian’s concubine. If you dare to capture our Tian family, we won’t let you off!”

Seeing Tian Mazi’s arrogant appearance, Li Yu snorted. “Just a concubine’s mother dares to be so arrogant and domineering. Ruyi, send them to the government office immediately. I want to see how the Tian family won’t let me off.”

“Yes, Madam.” Ruyi and Ma Gui tied up the Tian family members who had collapsed to the ground and threw them into the carriage to be sent to the government office.

Only then did the villagers, who were standing far away, run out and say to Li Yu, “Madam, this family does all bad things. They’re domineering in the village and can hit whoever they want.”

“And that Tian Mazi is the most shameless and domineering.”

Li Yu saw that all of them looked unbearably angry, but no one dared to go up and scold the Tian family just now. They only dared to come over and complain to her after the Tian family was taken away. Was it so difficult that they were already afraid of being bullied by the Tian family and lost their courage?

Chang Gui’s mother also said, “Madam, the Tian family’s courtyard is so spacious because it occupied my family and the Yang family’s vegetable fields. The old village chief is afraid of offending the Tian family, so he only knows how to smooth things over. We don’t dare to help when we see Ah Wei being beaten up.”

Someone else said, “That’s right! Logically speaking, Ah Wei often accompanied Doctor Wen to treat us. We should have gone forward to help when Tian Zhong’s family suppressed Ah Wei, but the Tian family is too domineering. We don’t dare to cause trouble for our family. We can only watch Ah Wei be beaten up and don’t dare to go forward to stop the fight. We’ve let Ah

Wei down.”

Did they still remember that Ah Wei often accompanied Old Master to treat them? If they didn’t dare to stop the fight, shouldn’t they secretly send someone to report it? Li Yu sighed in her heart and looked at them indifferently without saying anything.

“That’s right! Who hasn’t been beaten and scolded by the Tian family? Who hasn’t suffered?”

Li Yu looked at them and said, “If any of you have been occupied by the Tian family, the Tian family has already been sent to the government office. You can follow the people in my residence to complain to the government office. They won’t dare to make things difficult for you.”

The villagers, who had been complaining just now, instantly lost their resentment. They chuckled and said, “Madam, just get someone to take them to the government office. We won’t go if you complain.”

Li Yu looked at these villagers coldly and knew that it was their instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Perhaps many times, even if they were forced to do so, not many people were willing to provoke those powerful families, let alone now that someone had stood up for them. However, such actions inevitably made one’s teeth turn cold.

At the side, Grandma Yang looked at the bruised Ah Wei with Ah Le’s heart. “Ah Wei, I’ve let you down. I didn’t dare to help when I saw you being beaten up. I’ve let you down, Ah Wei.”

Ah Wei grinned. “Granny Yang, I didn’t listen to your advice and went to provoke the Tian family. I can’t blame you.”

“Brother Ah Wei, my grandmother asked me to help you call someone,” Le whispered from behind.

Ah Wei glanced at Grandma Yang, who was glaring at Le, and patted him with a smile. “Thank you, Le!”

Li Yu glanced at the villagers and suddenly felt a little disinterested. She

shouted at Ah Wei, “Let’s go..”
