Chapter 131 The evil ones will be punished by the evil ones
After hearing what Su Xiaoxiao said, the surrounding villagers hesitated a little.
Seeing this, Mrs. Wu panicked.
"Fellow villagers, don't listen to this little bitch's nonsense. My Xie Zhi has never hit Jiang Lanlan! She's lying. She...she just wants to help that bitch Jiang Lanlan climb up the social ladder and dump our Xie Zhi. You can't believe what she says!"
Su Xiaoxiao questioned sternly.
"Do you dare to swear to heaven that if Xie Zhi beats Lan Lan, he will be struck by lightning and die miserably, and the Xie family will be cut off forever?"
In this feudal era, continuing the family line was considered a top priority. No one would easily swear on such a thing, and this kind of thing was also the most favorable reason to prove innocence.
But Wu felt guilty and did not dare to swear anything that would let down the ancestors of the Xie family.
She avoided Su Xiaoxiao's gaze, not daring to meet hers, and hesitated for a moment before she dared to speak.
"Fellow villagers, this little bitch is so aggressive. She just wants to sow discord between us. She's so mean. Don't trust her!"
The unconvincing words also made the villagers begin to believe that Xie Zhi really beat Jiang Lanlan, and beat her severely.
Someone in the crowd whispered something.
"That day, I passed by the Xie family and saw Xie Zhi beating Jiang Lanlan. Xie Zhi hit her hard, and Jiang Lanlan cried heartbreakingly. But Wu was like nothing had happened, still grinning smugly!"
When Mrs. Wu saw that the person who was speaking was the newly married bride in the village, she immediately widened her eyes and cursed at the bride like crazy.
"What are you talking about, you little bitch! You've only been in the village for a few days, what the hell do you know?"
At first, the young wife was reluctant to meddle in other people's affairs and offend others, but when she thought that Jiang Lanlan, who was also a newlywed wife, was treated so unfairly, she couldn't stand it. She couldn't stand it and she told the truth.
She was not afraid at all when facing a heartless family like the Xie family.
"I have no grudge against you, and I'm not familiar with Jiang Lanlan. There's no need to frame you. What I said is the truth. It's just that your family is too bullying. Jiang Lanlan was so good to you, but you raised a pair of ungrateful mother and son like you."
When the villagers heard this, they were even more certain that Jiang Lanlan was abused by the Xie family.
Although they were angry that outsiders came into the village and beat their people, they were not stupid and could distinguish right from wrong.
Xie Zhi beat his wife, he deserves to be taught a lesson.
If it was their daughter being beaten like this by her new husband, they would not be able to bear it and would even want to kill Xie Zhi.
I don't want my life to be ruined like this.
They started talking and basically agreed to divorce.
Xiao Ran, lying in the rocking chair, was immersed in the praise he had just received from Su Xiaoxiao, and felt very happy.
Although he was not as good as Su Xiaoxiao described, he did help a woman who had also been beaten by her husband for years to escape from her suffering.
How did Su Xiaoxiao know about this?
Did Su Xiaoxiao investigate him?
Little did they know that Su Xiaoxiao was just speaking casually.
Based on her understanding of Xiao Ran's character, he must have done many such righteous things.
Xiao Ran seemed even more pleased as he listened to the discussions of the surrounding villagers.
He asked Xie Zhi and Wu in a slightly lazy tone.
"Is there anything else you want to say?"
Mrs. Wu was unwilling to give up and continued to ask for help from the villagers outside the yard.
"Fellow villagers, don't listen to this little bitch's nonsense. We didn't hit Jiang Lanlan..."
Xiao Ran frowned slightly, "Shut up!"
Donglai took a few steps forward, swung his arm, and slapped Wu in the face.
"Shut up!"
"Snapped!"
Mrs. Wu had never been beaten like this before. She was stunned and looked at Donglai with her hands covering her face, at a loss.
"What are you looking at! If you speak nonsense again without my young master's permission, I will beat you!"
Mrs. Wu looked at Xie Zhi, who was beaten black and blue and unable to fight back, and swallowed her saliva. Apart from crying, she dared not say anything else.
She didn't want to be beaten up by a group of strong men like Xie Zhi, that would definitely cost her life.
Seeing that Wu had shut up and Xie Zhi had stopped resisting, Xiao Ran spoke slowly.
"It's my turn to speak!"
With Donglai's help, he sat up straight, his eyes full of coldness, completely different from his lazy appearance just now.
"Xie Zhi, will you sign this divorce agreement?"
The servant who was beating Xie Zhi stopped immediately when he heard Xie Zhi speak, stood up and took a step back, exposing Xie Zhi to Xiao Ran's sight.
Xie Zhi was beaten so badly that his whole body was in pain, his mouth and nose were full of blood, and no one came to help him. His arrogance just now was swept away, and he dared not continue to insist.
"I sign! I sign!"
Wu wanted to stop her, "I can't..."
Before she could finish her words, Donglai stepped forward again and slapped Wu.
"How dare you interrupt!"
Wu immediately covered the other half of her face that was hit with her other hand, pursed her lips tightly, and dared not speak again.
Donglai rolled his eyes at her and returned to Xiao Ran.
Xiao Ran made a gesture to Donglai, and Donglai took out the divorce papers.
"Why would you have just signed it earlier? Why did you have to endure all this suffering?"
Donglai spread the divorce letter flatly on the stone table in the yard, and took out the pen and ink and placed them aside.
Two servants carried Xie Zhi and dragged him to the stone table.
"sign!"
Xie Zhi picked up the pen tremblingly and quickly signed on it.
Fortunately, he knew some words. If he couldn't write his name smoothly, he would probably be beaten again.
After signing, the servant grabbed Xie Zhi's finger, smeared some blood from the corner of his mouth, and pressed his fingerprint on the divorce agreement.
There were two copies of the divorce agreement, and Jiang Lanlan's name had already been signed. Now Xie Zhi signed and put his fingerprints on it, and the matter was settled.
A servant brought a signed divorce agreement and respectfully presented it to Xiao Ran.
Donglai took the divorce letter and showed it to Xiao Ran.
Xiao Ran looked at it and nodded with satisfaction, then made a gesture to Donglai. Donglai put away the divorce agreement and took out the dowry list of Jiang Lanlan when she got married.
"Read!"
After receiving the order, Donglai immediately read out all the details on the home improvement list in a loud and clear voice to ensure that everyone present could hear it clearly.
The villagers couldn't help but secretly smack their lips as they listened to the generous list of dowries.
His expression showed all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred.
I envy the Xie family for having such a wealthy family as the Jiang family as their in-laws.
I hate that the Xie family was born into such a blessed family but didn’t know how to appreciate it and didn’t know how to cherish such a good marriage.
After reading the dowry list, Xiao Ran continued, "You and Jiang Lanlan have divorced today, and Jiang Lanlan's dowry must be returned in full."
He then said to the servants, "Go find all of Jiang Lanlan's dowry and take it away!"
"Yes!"
Upon receiving the order, the servant immediately rushed into the house and began to search, turning the house into a mess.
Wu and Xie Zhi felt heartbroken when they heard the sounds of things being knocked over and broken from time to time.
No matter how heartbroken they were, they dared not say another word.
Su Xiaoxiao felt relieved when she saw their reactions.
The evil ones must be punished by the evil ones!
Although Xiao Ran is not a bad guy, he is a good "bad guy" today!
Xiao Ran happened to glance sideways at Su Xiaoxiao, and seeing Su Xiaoxiao's satisfied expression, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he felt an inexplicable sense of pride.
