protect you. If you're accidentally discovered, this is the only way to survive. And they can find me, so I can know there's a problem here sooner."The little flower was afraid, but she still nodded...An Xuetang spoke halfway, then raised her hand and slapped Mrs. Lin hard.

Lin was immediately struck by her, bleeding from the corner of her mouth.

It seems An Xuetang really slapped hard.

Seeing An Xuetang like this, everyone stared in disbelief.

Even Yang Daya widened her eyes. She had played with An Xuetang for so many years, and she had never seen this side of her before.

Lin was attacked very suddenly, and everyone was taken aback for a moment.

When Yang Xiao reacted, she screamed repeatedly and immediately wanted to attack An Xue Tang.

She was no match for An Xue Tang at all. The moment she charged, An Xue Tang kicked her away with one foot.

She cried out in pain.

The villagers were all startled, and everyone kept looking at An Xuetang with curious eyes.

Dong Ge narrowed his eyes, such an An Xue Tang also surprised him.

As soon as Lin realized what was happening, she saw her beloved daughter being kicked out by An Xuetang. She immediately screamed and, protective of her child, rushed towards An Xuetang to scratch her face.

But An Xuetang dealt with her, she only needed one hand.

The moment she rushed over, Dong Ge had wanted to stop her, but An Xue Tang acted faster than he could.

I saw An Xuetang pinching Lin's neck with one hand and slapping her hard with the other.

It went back and forth ten times.

He punched her face so badly she became unrecognizable, then threw her to the ground where she landed on top of Yang Xiao.

Everyone was stunned by An Xuetang's appearance, their mouths agape in disbelief.

Li Zheng actually should have stopped An Xue Tang, but Li Zheng's wife had already pulled him back and prevented him from doing so.

In Lady Li's view, this Lin family and Yang Xiao were simply asking for trouble. They actually came to bother An Xuetang early in the morning and even splashed her with dog blood.

If it were her, she would also give the mother and daughter a pig's head face.

Lin and Yang Xiao-wa cried loudly, and Lin even started cursing in foul language.

It basically means how An Xuetang bullies people, and she even insults the village head and villagers, calling them not human beings, saying they only bully her because she's a widow, and so on.

Everyone had become immune to her words and didn't even want to pay attention to her.

An Xuetang found them too noisy, her eyes narrowed at this moment, and she didn't know where she took out a dagger, shining it before the mother and daughter:

"Will you all quiet down This knife of mine is a bit skittish. If you keep making so much noise, I can't guarantee it won't fly right into your faces."

"!!!"

An Xuetang's bloody threat scared Lin and Yang Xiao into instantly stopping their wailing.

All eyes were on An Xuetang. She stood tall and imposing before Lin Shi and Yang Xia, "You want to find trouble with me, isn't it because I haven't been giving your Ming Ge silver lately"

"I tell you, you borrowed so much money from me and haven't paid it back yet. Now you still have the nerve to come to me for a loan And want to cause trouble for me Do you really think I, An Xuetang, have no temper"

Everyone looked at each other in surprise after hearing what An Xue Tang said. Dong Ge narrowed his eyes, as if he understood An Xue Tang's next plan. He then spoke:

"That's right, your Yang Xingming borrowed so much money from my sister and never paid it back. Now he wants to cause trouble for her, doesn't he Just because she hasn't been giving you money lately"

The villagers were immediately drawn in by what An Xuetang and Dong'er said. They automatically ignored Dong'er calling An Xuetang "sister," and now they all focused on Yang Xingming borrowing money from An Xuetang.

"Anya, did Ming really lend you money" gossipy Liu Pozi chimed in from everywhere.

An Xuetang smirked, "Yes."

"You're lying!" Mrs. Lin roared, she got up and pointed at An Xuetang, "My Mingge has no dealings with you, he wouldn't lend you money."

"Is that so" An Xuetang looked at her with a half-smile. "Since you don't believe me, I can only go to the academy and confront your Yang Xingming."

"You dare!" Yang Xiao also stood up, she gritted her teeth, "You... you dare to tarnish my elder brother's reputation, I'll fight you to the death!"

To Lin and Yang Xiao, Yang Xingming was their hope, and of course they wouldn't allow his reputation to be tarnished.

Li Zheng frowned, "An Xue Tang, what you said is true Ming Ge borrowed money from you and doesn't want to return it"

Of course, he told me he was taking money when Yang Daya knew about it.

Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at Yang Daya.

Yang Daya knew she owed An Xue Tang an apology. She quickly nodded now, "Yes, yes, yes, Ah Tang did give Ming Ge'er silver. I know about this. Ah Tang embroidered many pouches to sell in order to raise silver for Ming Ge'er's tuition. All the silver she earned went to Ming Ge'er."

"How is that possible" Mrs. Lin roared, "Yang Daya, watch your words!"

When her own daughter was threatened, Lady Yang was no longer willing to stand by. She snorted coldly, “Our eldest daughter wouldn’t lie. It’s your Ming'er who wanted Ah Tang’s silver, and now he wants to deny it. I think you are nothing but bandits!”

"Tsk, you wretch!" Lin spat. "You Yang Wang shi, you're the real robber!"

Seeing that the two were about to argue, the village head quickly spoke up to stop them, "Be quiet!"

Li Zheng looked at An Xue Tang, “An Xue Tang, besides Yang Daya, what else do you have to prove that Ming Ge’er borrowed money from you”

An Xuetang narrowed her eyes, "Yang Xingming's classmates have seen me hand him his pouch with my own hands. If you really want to be more certain, I suggest going to the school and asking those people to corroborate."

"No!" shrieked Mrs. Lin, of course she couldn't let everyone go to the academy to find Ming'er, otherwise Ming'er's reputation would be ruined.

"Yang Wang snorted, "Lin Shi, I think you're afraid, aren't you"

Liu Pozi also smiled, "That's right, that's right, I think she's just too scared!"

Lin's hands clenched into fists, teeth gritted as she glared at An Xuetang. "What do you want"

An Xuetang smiled, speaking slowly, "I originally thought there was no need for you to rush to pay back the money, after all, we've met by chance. But you slandered me, smearing me with mud, after this incident, if I could still forgive you, then An Xuetang would be too spineless."

"Saying that, she looked at Dong Ge'er, "Dong Ge'er, you help me ask them for the silver back, I can't stand the smell on my body. I'm going home to wash up. They definitely owe me ten taels of silver. Help me get it back."

Ten taels

Everyone gasped in shock. That's too much, right

"Lin refused to admit it, "How could it possibly be ten taels of silver You wretched woman, you must have gone mad for money!"

An Xuetang didn't bother with her and turned to leave.would be troubled by Xiao Qin's marriage and might fall ill. So he sent a doctor back to the house.This physician, though a traveling doctor from the Jianghu, was no less skilled than the imperial ph...
