Chapter 120: Filial Descendants
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When Su Ying reached the fields, she saw the 400 square yards of land that had been destroyed the night before.
She frowned and asked the bandit leader to replant the seeds they had brought.
She continued to dig fish ponds with Number One and the rest. She wanted to finish digging in a few days.
“You vicious, demonic woman! Give me back my son’s life!11
Su Ying was hard at work when she heard a wail. She raised her head for a look and saw Madam Li and her family carrying a person on a stretcher over. A large group of people followed them. They were probably attracted by Madam Li’s wail and had come to gawk and watch the drama.
Madam Li and the others lifted the board to the front of Su Ying and wailed, “You vicious woman! Not only did you dig up my family’s ancestral grave, but you also poisoned my son to death. If you don’t give me an explanation today, I’ll fight you to the death even if 1 have to give up my aged life.”
Su Ying glanced at the person lying on the bed. It was indeed one of Madam Li’s sons.
“Why don’t you tell me how 1 poisoned your son?” she said with a scornful sneer.
Madam Li pointed at Su Ying furiously, her voice filled with rage. “You deliberately poisoned the grain seeds. After we went back and ate them, my son collapsed today. It is your fault!”
“That’s right. You’re the evil woman who killed my son. Give me back my son’s life.”
“Yesterday, Madam Li and the others had a conflict with this woman Madam Su. Could it really be that she was the one who poisoned them?”
“Who knows? Anyway, it’s not illegal to kill someone here. Even if it’s true, what can Madam Li do?”
Su Ying laughed with amusement. “Even if my grain seeds were poisonous, they were planted in my own field. How did they end up in your pot? My men encountered thieves who stole our seedlings last night. So it was you guys.”
Although the Li family was exposed, they still retorted righteously, “This land belongs to everyone. Do you have a land deed? If you don’t have the land deed, what right do you have to say it’s yours?”
“By your logic, even if I plant crops here and they mature in the future, you guys can just come and steal it whenever you like because 1 don’t have a land deed?
Madam Li’s family stuck out their necks and said, “That’s right!”
As soon as they uttered these words, those who were farming here were unhappy. They had also planted crops. If everyone followed Madam Li’s reasoning after this, wouldn’t their efforts be in vain?
“Madam Li, don’t talk nonsense. We’ve already agreed that this field belongs to whoever planted it. Just because you disagree doesn’t mean you can overrule the rest of us.”
“That’s right. Stop bullshitting. If you dare to have any ideas about my crops, I’ll break all your legs.”
More and more people spoke up when it concerned their own interests.
Madam Li was also an unreasonable person, and she immediately started quarreling with them.
Alright, don’t lead us off track. WeTe not here to quarrel.”
Madam Li’s husband, Qian Wei, stopped her.
Only then did Madam Li realize that she had been led off track. She glared at Su Ying and said, ‘ Don’t try to deny it. You killed my son. If you don’t give us an explanation today, we ll come here every day to make a fuss. I’ll see how you can continue farming.”
“That’s right. You even dug up my family’s ancestral grave yesterday. How can a woman like you be so vicious?”
Su Ying stood up icily and walked over. She looked at Madam Li and the others with a chilly gaze and said, “1 11 only say this once, so everyone here better listen carefully. First, 1 took this piece of land from the Tiger Base. I’ve compensated those who worked on this piece of land in the past and asked them to move their plots elsewhere. Second, the grain seeds I planted are definitely mine. All farmers know that potato seeds with sprouts are poisonous. Last night, their family stole more than 400 square yards of potato seedlings from my field. Now that they’ve eaten them and suffered a mishap, they want me to take responsibility? They are simply having a fool’s dream. I’m already being kind by not asking you to return my seeds.”
Su Ying turned around and looked ar the grave not far away. ‘As for what you guys said about digging up your grave, now that you are standing in front of your ancestor, why don’t you go and kowtow to your ancestor? If you don’t even kowtow, how can I believe that your ancestor was buried in that grave down there?11
“That is indeed our ancestor,” Madam Li stuck out her neck and insisted.
Su Ying crossed her arms and gave a scornful sneer. “Then go and kowtow to him. I might believe you then.’
Madam Li turned back to look at Qian Wei, who gritted his teeth and said, “Kowtowing to our ancestors is what we should do anyway. Our ancestor’s spirit in heaven will definitely help us punish this evil woman.”
Qian Wei said as he walked towards the grave.
Madam Li and her two sons had no choice but to follow him.
Qian Wei knelt down in front of the grave and kowtowed three times in a solemn manner.
“Dear ancestor, you have to protect us. Yesterday, this vicious woman dug up your grave. Please don’t be angry. We will definitely seek justice for you.” Qian Wei’s sincere demeanor really made him look like a filial descendant.
Bah! Qian Wei, you despicable scum! My daughter doesn’t have such a filial son! ” Suddenly, a man dressed like a farmer rushed out of the crowd and kicked Qian Wei, who was kneeling on the ground.
The man pointed at them angrily and said, “My family’s Daya was killed by your despicable son. Now, your despicable son is dead. It is indeed retribution!”
Qian Wei got up from the ground in fury after being kicked so viciously.
“I was wondering who it was. So it is you, Li Laosan, you bumpkin. Your family’s Daya deserved to die. She knew how to seduce my son at such a young age. She deserved to be sent to serve the King of Hell at an early age!”
Li Laosan’s eyes turned bloodshot with anger when he heard this. “You shameless bastard. It was obvious that your son has evil intentions towards my daughter, and you still have the nerve to come out and lie to everyone. This is clearly the grave of my family’s daughter. Fuck your ancestors! ‘1
When everyone heard Li Laosan’s words, they curiously gathered in front of the grave to take a look. “Hey, it’s really Li Daya’s gravestone.”
“Qian Wei, you guys really acknowledged the Li family’s Daya as your ancestor. Hahahaha!”
Qian Wei didn’t knowhow to read, and neither did Madam Li. They didn’t know whose grave this was, but they had heard that Su Ying used silver to compensate quite handsomely the other farmers to move their land, so they were jealous.
Yesterday, Madam Li had come to the fields to see if she could take advantage of the situation. Then, she heard Su Ying and the others say that they seemed to have dug up someone else’s coffin.
She then hatched a scheme to come here to make a scene, saying that this was their ancestral grave. She wanted to get some benefits from Su Ying. To her chagrin, this turned out to be Li Daya’s grave mound!
Qian Wei’s family felt really unlucky at the thought of having kowtowed to a girl who died young.
He immediately turned to Su Ying and demanded compensation.
“Something happened to my son because he ate the crop in your field. 1 can’t let this matter go.”
Su Ying remained unruffled and raised her eyebrows.. “What do you guys want?”
