Chapter 380 He has no real skills, but a huge temper.
Early in the morning, Cai Shitou led the men from Caijia Village to harass the Gu family. They threw a torch at them and were detained here.
The village head and clan elders arrived, but Linshui Village wouldn't release the person, saying they would wait for the woman surnamed Lin to return and deal with her.
A group of men, full of youthful vigor, would have already started a fight and decided the outcome in any other place.
Unfortunately, this is Linshui Village, which is famous for fighting pirates. The men in front of us all have blood on their hands.
Not to mention these men, even teenagers were following behind the adults, adding insult to injury.
Or perhaps it's because Linshui Village has become wealthy, with every household now eating three meals a day and basically having some meat every day.
Even families facing financial difficulties could occasionally afford to spend a few copper coins to get a meat dish with rice at the Gu family workshop's canteen. The whole family could share it and still have enough meat to eat.
Therefore, the people of Linshui Village, regardless of age or gender, all looked to be in better spirits than them.
They knew they couldn't win, so the group could only curse and grumble as they cooperated with the Linshui Village coastal defense team, squatting outside the Gu residence.
The people of Linshui Village are such scoundrels. They detained them without even providing them with shelter, forcing them all onto the open ground in front of the Gu residence.
People from Caijia Village were arrested one by one, and groups of them were arrested as well. The clan chief and the village head were also arrested.
What infuriated them the most was that Huo Shiyi was truly shameless. At mealtimes, he deliberately led the men from Linshui Village to eat steamed buns with meat filling and drink bone broth in front of them.
The men of Caijia Village were drooling with envy.
Cai Shitou was both angry and annoyed, but as soon as he muttered a few words, the two guards from the Gu family who knew kung fu immediately glared at him.
So much so that after half a day, he almost hid himself in the crowd.
Hearing that the woman surnamed Lin had returned, he didn't dare to show his face. Only when he heard someone calling his name did he crane his neck to look.
Sure enough, upon looking, they saw their mother and wife getting off the carriage of the woman surnamed Lin, who was trembling.
This was outrageous! A surge of anger welled up inside Cai Shitou and rushed to the top of his head.
He rushed towards the carriage without a second thought, cursing as he went, "You wicked woman surnamed Lin, don't go too far! I'll take responsibility for my own actions, but why did you tie up my parents and wife here?"
However, he didn't even have a chance to get to Lin Chang'er before he was grabbed by A Da and A Er again.
Cai Shitou was also desperate and roared at Lin Chang'er, "You surnamed Lin, what kind of skill is it to bully old people and women? If you have the guts, come at me."
Lin Chang'er felt pain in her ears. She picked at them, but they still buzzed. She rubbed them again.
Just then, a child's voice suddenly rang out, "Why are you cursing my aunt? It's not like my aunt kidnapped your father, mother, and wife."
Gu Xiaoman angrily retorted to Cai Shitou, then kicked her short legs and slid off Liu Zi's arms.
She ran up to Cai Shitou, raised her little foot and stomped on his foot, yelling, "You bad person, you burned our tree and you were shouting so loudly!"
“That’s right…” Zhou Yi also slid off Zhou Li’s arms, ran over, and imitated Gu Xiaoman, stepping on Cai Shitou’s foot with his chubby little feet. “Auntie, I gave your parents and wife some delicious pastries. You scolded your auntie. You’re not a good adult.”
"My mother even invited them to ride in a carriage!" Gu Xiaolu said indignantly, nestled in her uncle's arms.
At this moment, the little goldfish chimed in, "Your mother and your wife came here on their own. My mother just gave them a ride back. If you're going to curse, at least find out the facts first!"
Turning to Cai Shitou's mother and wife, she said, "He doesn't distinguish right from wrong, you two should say something too!"
The Cai family mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were both startled. They knew their husbands were impulsive, but they didn't expect them to be so reckless.
Upon hearing Little Goldfish's words, Cai's mother quickly explained, "My son, it was your mother and Xiaoshui who came here on our own. The esteemed person kindly gave us a ride. You've misunderstood her."
The villagers of Linshui Village were already very dissatisfied with Cai Shitou's actions, and now, after hearing what the children and Cai's mother said, they became even more furious and began to criticize Cai Shitou.
"Now you're saying Chang'er bullied your parents and wife, but why don't you say that throwing torches at the Gu family in front of Chang'er this morning was also bullying a woman!"
"That's right. When it's your turn, you start complaining and saying that Chang'er is too much of a bully. If you ask me, it's only because Chang'er is too kind that you still dare to bark at her doorstep."
"He came to cause trouble, set fires and committed violence. The last one who made trouble for the Gu family is probably already overgrown with weeds by now!"
Upon hearing these words, Cai's mother and Cai Shitou's wife, Wu Shui, quickly bowed to the surroundings, begging them to be more considerate.
The men of Linshui Village weren't the type to hold a grudge, and seeing that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law both looked kind and spoke the truth, they gave them face and didn't continue to criticize Cai Shitou.
Wu Shui then stepped forward and carefully looked Cai Shitou up and down, asking with concern, "Shitou, are you alright?"
Cai Shitou turned his face away, ignoring his wife, and said with some impatience, "Whether it's fighting or killing, it's my business alone. Why are you all here to cause trouble?"
Wu Shui's face stiffened. Afraid of embarrassing her husband, she dared not say that she and her mother-in-law had pooled their money to redeem him.
Instead, she walked back to her mother-in-law's side with her head down, like a child who had done something wrong. Cai's mother held her daughter-in-law's hand, patted the back of her hand, and didn't say anything. She just turned to Lin Chang'er with earnest eyes.
Lin Chang'er: "..."
Damn it, this bastard has actually gotten cocky?
That mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are both spoiled.
Lin Chang'er said, "You don't know what your parents and wife are here for, do you? Fine, I'll tell you."
She reached out to Liu Zi, who paused, then immediately realized what she meant and placed the bag of silver coins that Cai's mother and daughter-in-law had given him in both hands into her palm.
Lin Chang'er threw it on the ground, lifted the handkerchief, and exposed strings of copper coins, broken hairpins, silver bracelets, and earrings to everyone.
“Your parents and your wife emptied their savings, even taking out their dowry from the bottom of their trunks, to raise money to redeem you!”
"Do you really think that just because you're strong and have a loud voice, you can come here and show off your power by calling on twenty or thirty men?"
"I'm telling you today, whether it's fighting or talking about the law, with what you've got in your head, you can't beat me!"
After a pause, he said, "Oh, you think coming to someone's door is a sign of loyalty? You've been listening to too many stories and think that saying this makes you some kind of hero who would go to great lengths for family and friends, right?"
"Let me tell you, I've heard more of these kinds of books than you have. You're not some kind of loyal servant; you're just a complete idiot who doesn't care whether your parents or your wife live or die."
"You say you'd rather be killed or tortured than go after me? You're all useless, but you have a big temper..."
