Chapter 61 - 61 61 Who Dares to Bully My Wife

Chapter 61: Chapter 61 Who Dares to Bully My Wife Chapter 61: Chapter 61 Who Dares to Bully My Wife “Why are you all looking at her?”

At this moment, a curious house servant was looking at Su Yunjin, sensing that despite her plain attire, her beauty was unmistakable.

He couldn’t help but wonder, “Who is this little young lady, she is indeed very lovely!”

Seeing this, Aunt Erba stepped in front of Su Yunjin and said, “Their eyes have problems, they just love to stare for no reason. Don’t mind them. If you have any questions, ask me. I’m the most well-informed person in this village!”

The house servants exchanged glances, and one of them spoke up, “Okay, then we’ll ask you, does anyone in your village have a conflict with Ma Liu?”

As soon as these words were uttered, the women all looked at Su Yunjin again.

Aunt Erba angrily said, “What are you staring at? That Ma Liu is disliked even by dogs, who doesn’t have some conflict with him?”

Upon hearing this, the women fell silent. The house servants exchanged looks, and an older-looking one said, “Is that so? But I’ve heard otherwise?”

“That little young lady belongs to the Chen Jiusi family, right? I heard that not long ago Ma Liu went to your house to collect a debt?”

The women all looked at Su Yunjin upon hearing this.

Aunt Erba still wanted to stand in front, but Su Yunjin knew that trouble was brewing and it wouldn’t be easily dismissed.

Some things she had to face herself.

“Yunjin.”

Su Yunjin stepped forward. Aunt Erba tried to stop her, but Su Yunjin just smiled and said, “It’s okay, the brothers are just here to ask some questions, they won’t make things difficult for me.”

“Gentlemen, go ahead and ask!”

The house servants exchanged glances and one asked, “Did Ma Liu come to collect a debt from your house a couple of days ago?”

“Yes, he did.”

Su Yunjin nodded.

“He didn’t make things too difficult for you, did he?”

“It was manageable.”

“Do you intensely dislike him?”

A house servant probed, and Su Yunjin said, “Hate is too strong a word, just dislike.”

“Oh, so have you ever thought about killing him?”

“Kill him? Don’t scare me like that. We wouldn’t dare kill anyone. Besides, our issue with Ma Liu was already resolved by Uncle Wu Zhong. We had no reason to kill Ma Liu!”

Su Yunjin spoke calmly.

The house servants exchanged glances, and one asked, “Where was your Chen Jiusi the night before last?”

“At home!”

“What was he doing?”

“What could a newlywed couple be doing...”

“He didn’t go out?”

“No, we didn’t even get out of bed.”

“Really?”

“Why would I lie to you?”

Su Yunjin responded one by one, her answers airtight, leaving no room for contradiction.

The house servants found no discrepancies in her story.

The house servants then questioned other women, but they too knew nothing. Everyone had a good relationship with Su Yunjin and had no reason to fabricate stories.

If she were to encounter Lu Qinsi, she might just start spouting nonsense, but right now, she’s busy pulling Chen Sanliu’s hair!

Yu Family’s house servants found nothing after making rounds of inquiries, and one cunning-looking servant glanced at Su Yunjin.

He was a trusted servant of Yu Sanliu, naturally aware of his young master’s troubles.

With a chuckle, he said to Su Yunjin, “Lady Chen, the things you’ve said are very helpful to us. These past few days, our young master has been relentless, looking everywhere for the murderer, and he always suspects that it was Chen Jiusi who did it.”

Su Yunjin remained calm upon hearing this, but her hands hidden in her sleeves were clenched tightly.

“However, we don’t believe that Chen Jiusi could have done this either, but our young master won’t believe us. So, if you have time, why don’t you come back with us and talk to our young master in person, to prevent him from being suspicious and always doubting Brother Jiu Si, don’t you agree?”

“Go back with you?”

Upon hearing this, Aunt Erba became furious, “Why should we go back with you? We won’t!”

Su Yunjin also shook her head, “Hmm, my husband is waiting for me to cook dinner at home.”

“Lady Chen, I advise you to come back with us and explain in person. Otherwise, if our young master really takes Chen Jiusi for the murderer, Yu Family’s retaliation is not something he can withstand!”

Hearing this, Su Yunjin paled!

The retaliation of the Yu Family was indeed intimidating, but Su Yunjin knew that if she went, she would be like fish on the chopping block—she couldn’t go!

So she said, “Let’s forget it then. If Mr. Yu really suspects my husband, then I’ll have Uncle Wu Zhong talk to your young master.”

“Ha, Lady Chen, this is a trivial matter, why bother Steward Wu? Just come with us.”

“Yes, Lady Chen, our young master really knows how to be considerate towards women; he won’t make things difficult for you. Just go and explain the situation.”

“Yes, and we will bring you back tonight. By then, it would be wonderful for both families to turn hostilities into peace.”

The house servants said as they closed in. Aunt Erba stepped forward to protect her, but was pushed down by a servant. These servants, accustomed to being overbearing, did not care about the villagers’ opinions.

Especially that servant eager to prove his worth, who was almost grabbing Su Yunjin’s hand.

But just as his hand was about to grab Su Yunjin’s hand, he suddenly felt a pain, and saw that at some point, a silver-plated copper hairpin had appeared in Su Yunjin’s hand, stabbing directly into the servant’s hand.

The servant withdrew his hand in pain, seeing the back of his hand had been pierced, blood flowing freely, and he shouted in anger, “You wretched woman, not knowing how to appreciate favors, huh!”

Saying so, he raised his hand to strike Su Yunjin.

Although Wu Zhong was quite intimidating, Wu Zhong belonged to the Fishing Guild and the Yu Family to the Guild Cao, natural enemies, and it was not uncommon for the two sides to fight in private.

Thus, Chen Jie, being an apprentice to Doctor Bai, also wielded some deterrent power, but as he was from the Guild Cao, the Yu Family would not hesitate to strike.

Moreover, Chen Jie was just an apprentice, not one of the Fishing Guild. Would Wu Zhong, over such a small matter, lead the Guild against the Guild Cao to a fight to the death?

Not a chance!

The servant, angered, raised his hand to slap Su Yunjin, to teach this woman a lesson.

But just as he raised his hand, before it could come down, suddenly, a person was seen sprinting from afar, taking a leap with a kick called the “Ancestor’s True Kick.”

The kick landed squarely on the servant’s chest, who gasped and fell backward, rolling over twice before collapsing.

Everyone looked and saw that Chen Jie had already positioned himself in front of Su Yunjin.

“Are you alright?”

Su Yunjin shook her head, but her hand was trembling.

Chen Jie grasped her hand, feeling its coldness.

But Su Yunjin felt the warmth from his large hand, finding comfort and reassurance.

And the servant who got kicked almost swallowed his breath in anger, but he eventually recovered, his face flushed as he roared, “Give it to her mother, attack him!”

After he finished, four servants immediately surrounded them.

Su Yunjin was startled, her pretty face turning a few shades whiter.
