Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The village chief said, “Alright, please go ahead and explain what happened.”
Qin Zhenzhen found this situation strange. Hadn’t the village chief always been biased towards Qian Dashan? Why did it now appear that they might not take his side?
The village chief added, “I expect you to be truthful. I will handle this situation fairly and impartially.”
“Understood,” Qin Zhenzhen replied.
However, Ms. Lin protested, “Qin Zhenzhen hit me, and she’s also involved! She’s just as biased!”
Qin Zhenzhen quickly retorted, “That’s not relevant right now. I’m only addressing what happened before. Besides, I can swear that if I’m lying, I’ll be struck by lightning!”
“Do you dare to swear like me? If you do, then you’ll be forced to reveal the truth!” challenged Ms. Lin.
The villagers chuckled at the exchange.
Qin Zhenzhen decided not to waste any more time and proceeded to recount the events as they happened.
In the end, she also explained why she had acted the way she did, saying, “Ms. Lin had insulted our sister and Brother Shanmin, which led to him slapping her to silence her.”
“It was intentional on her part to cause the scratches on her own body.”
“Actually, even if Brother Shanmin hadn’t hit her, I would have felt compelled to teach her a lesson. Her words were incredibly hurtful, and she seemed relentless until someone shut her up.”
“She kept humiliating our sister, and I used the twig to give her two warning hits, hoping she would stop talking about it.”
Qin Zhenzhen justified her actions and the reasons behind hitting Ms. Lin.
Su Lan was deeply moved and couldn’t hold back her tears. She was grateful for the kindness and support she received from her Third Sister-in-law.
Third Sister-in-law proved to be both brave and articulate, and Su Lan considered herself lucky that her Third Brother had married her.
With such courage and eloquence, the Third Sister-in-law of the Su Family was destined for greatness.
Su Ning handed a handkerchief to Su Lan, saying, “Sister, please don’t cry. With Third Sister-in-law on our side, she will definitely teach Uncle and his family a lesson!”
Taking the handkerchief, Su Lan wiped away her tears.
“I won’t cry anymore. I will face the future bravely!” Su Lan declared with determination.
She gazed at Qian Shanmin, realizing that she should no longer harbor feelings of inferiority. She was determined to build a strong relationship with Third Sister-in-law and make her own choices.
Su Lan had liked Brother Shanmin even before they got married; it was her wish to marry him. The fact that Brother Shanmin reciprocated her feelings was a rare and cherished bond.
However, Ms. Lin interjected, pointing at Qin Zhenzhen, and accused her of twisting the truth, claiming they were siding with the “cripple.” Ms. Lin continued to provoke, insinuating that Qin Zhenzhen was about to hit her again.
Qin Zhenzhen stepped forward, but Ms. Lin quickly retreated, accusing Qin Zhenzhen of having no sense of propriety.
Qin Zhenzhen stopped and addressed Ms. Lin sternly, “You persistently call me a cripple, but do you know that it’s against the law to use such derogatory terms?”
“Brother Shanmin’s foot was injured while bravely fighting on the battlefield, defending the nation and its people. Despite his injury, he is a national hero!”
“The country has recognized his valor and awarded him with medals and grants.”
“Many soldiers at the border sacrifice their lives and shed their blood to secure our country’s stability. They deserve everyone’s respect and grat.i.tude. It’s shameful that you mock Brother Shanmin for his injury simply because he didn’t marry your niece as you wished!”
Qin Zhenzhen’s impa.s.sioned words resonated deeply with everyone present. The once lively atmosphere fell into a hushed silence as the villagers listened with respect and grat.i.tude. Their eyes turned towards Qian Shanmin, recognizing his bravery and sacrifice.
Even Qian Dashan’s family now remained silent..
