Chapter 45 – 45 Establishing Power

45 Establishing Power

The next day, early in the morning, Wei Chiyu announced that the sons of the Wang and Sun families had been kidnapped by Zhou Xiaoli.

Soon, the Sun family and the Wang family came knocking on her door.

There were also many villagers who came to watch the show.

“Little b*tch Zhou, let go of my son. Let me tell you, if anything happens to my son, I won’t let you off!”

Zhou Xiaoli stood up and opened the door after hearing the curses from outside.

As soon as the door opened, Madam Zhu and Madam Wang pounced on Zhou Xiaoli.

Zhou Xiaoli did not panic at all. She dodged to the side and raised her leg at the same time to kick the two of them.

After being hit, the two of them flew into a rage out of humiliation. They got up from the ground and were about to go forward and tear Zhou Xiaoli apart.

Zhou Xiaoli’s voice then rang out. “If you don’t want your son to die, stand still!”

The two of them were stunned. They looked over and saw their precious sons tied to a tree in the courtyard. They were beaten until their faces were all swollen and could not be seen clearly.

The two of them immediately burst into tears.

“My son!”

Zhou Xiaoli’s head hurt when she heard the ruckus. She dug her ears and said, “Alright, alright. Stop mourning. They’re not dead yet!”

As she spoke, she picked up the two basins of cold water on the ground and poured them on their heads.

The two of them immediately woke up.

When he saw Zhou Xiaoli in front of him, Wang Gou’s eyes immediately trembled in fear.

It was only because he had woken up last night and was beaten up by Zhou Xiaoli.

On the other hand, when Sun Er saw Zhou Xiaoli, he struggled and shouted. “B*tch, how dare you tie me up? Let me go, or I won’t let you off!”

Zhou Xiaoli was too lazy to waste her breath on him. She immediately lashed out with her whip. “Noisy!”

Sun Er cried out for his parents.

Seeing her son cry out in pain, Madam Wang’s heart ached. She couldn’t care less and pounced forward. However, before she could get close, she was kicked out of the courtyard by Zhou Xiaoli again.

It was a powerful kick by Zhou Xiaoli. Madam Wang lay on the ground for a long time before getting up.

Zhou Xiaoli clapped her hands and said casually, “Don’t waste your effort. You can’t best me.”

Madam Wang and Madam Zhu were indignant and wanted to pull their men forward to assist them.

However, at this moment, their man’s face darkened as they grabbed their wife. “Alright, stop causing trouble!”

After scolding his wife, the Wang family spoke first. “Miss Zhou, you kidnapped my son and got someone to inform us. You must want something. Tell me, what do you want?”

Zhou Xiaoli sighed. “Finally, someone with a brain.”

Then, she said, “You came to my house to cause trouble yesterday, causing my father to fall from the roof. He’s still unconscious right now. The doctor said that if he doesn’t wake up tonight, he’ll be dead!”

“My mother is sick in bed because of this. You have to give me an explanation for this!”

When they heard that Zhou Yu’s condition was so serious, the Wang and Sun families felt a little guilty.

It was still the Wang family who spoke first. “What do you want in exchange for my son to go free?”

Zhou Xiaoli said, “It’s very simple. Each family will give me 15 taels of silver to treat my father and mother.”

When they heard that she wanted 15 taels of silver, Madam Wang and Madam Zhu immediately refused.

“Fifteen taels, why don’t you go rob someone for it! No, not a single tael would be given!” She jumped up from the ground and shouted in a high-pitched voice.

“Let me tell you, your father fell from the roof himself. You can’t blame us for that. Why should we bear the medical fees!”

“That’s right. Your father’s fall has nothing to do with us. We haven’t even asked your family for medical fees. My son was beaten up badly by you!”

Zhou Xiaoli did not say anything and only said, “I won’t let him go without money!”

At this moment, villagers had already gathered at the doorway and were pointing at them.

Soon, Wei Chiyu arrived with the mayor.

As soon as they saw the mayor, Madam Wang and Madam Zhu immediately rushed over and started crying.

“Mayor, you must help us.”

“This little b*tch is crazy. Look at how badly she had beat my son up. If you hadn’t come, my son would have died at the hands of this little b*tch. Boohoo.”

“She even wants to extort 15 taels of silver from us. If we don’t pay, she won’t let my son off.”

…

The mayor frowned. “Alright, alright. Do you really think I don’t know what happened?!”

“Your son tried to cheat the bounty first and was punished. He didn’t repent and actually came to the Zhou family to cause trouble!”

“You caused her father to fall off the roof and he’s still unconscious. How dare you cry for justice here right now?”

Madam Wang and Madam Zhu were not convinced.

“But she also hit my son. Mayor, look, my son is still bruised and swollen!”

Sun Er immediately cooperated and cried out, looking like he was about to die then.

The mayor was still unmoved. “He deserves it! He idles around all day. Tell me, who in the neighboring villages doesn’t know that your son is a b*stard!”

“If you don’t educate your child yourselves and allow them to cause trouble, you have to thank others for teaching them a lesson! Otherwise, if they cause a huge trouble in the future, let’s see if you can handle it then!”

Seeing that the mayor was biased towards the Zhou family’s daughter, the Wang and Sun families were dumbfounded.

“Alright, it’s still unknown if her father would be dead or alive, but you’re still causing trouble here. Take out the money and bring your son back quickly.” The mayor continued.

“If anything happens to her father, you’ll be in jail!”

Upon hearing that they would be imprisoned, the Wang and Sun families were afraid.

All of them said that they were willing to pay, but they also said that their families did not have that much money.

Naturally, Zhou Xiaoli did not want to give in. In the end, it became a matter of repaying the debt with material items.

When Zhou Xiaoli removed their things away from their homes, Madam Wang and Madam Zhu were still sitting on the ground and in tears.

“Take care of your son. If he dares to provoke my family again, it won’t be as simple as a beating and using money to settle!” Zhou Xiaoli coldly said.

As she spoke, she glanced at them coldly.

The two of them were immediately frightened by the coldness in Zhou Xiaoli’s eyes and did not dare to make a sound.

After today’s performance, Zhou Xiaoli’s fierce and domineering reputation spread throughout the village.

“I really didn’t expect the young lady from the Zhou family to be so valiant even though she looks gentle and weak. She did not even blink when she was hitting them.”

“That’s right. Look at how the sons of the Wang and Sun families were beaten up. I can’t even recognize his face. She’s really ruthless!”

“This girl from the Zhou family used to be so submissive that she didn’t even dare to look up at anyone. Why does she suddenly seem like a different person?”

“Sigh, she must have been forced to do so. They do not have a man to be in charge at home, and her mother is sick and weak. She’s been bullied a lot. Even a rabbit would bite when it’s anxious!”

…

At the same time, as her reputation of being domineering spread, those in the village who thought that the Zhou family had no man in the family to stand up for them and hence could be bullied, gave up on that thought as well.

After the people in the village who were watching the commotion left, the mayor did not leave.

He waited for the villagers to leave before stepping forward to the question in his heart. “Miss Zhou, how did you know that there was a problem with my ancestral grave?”
