Chapter 2
Furiously Punishing Zhang Guixiang
Li Yu placed the backpack at the door and pushed it open to enter. She saw that Zhang Guixiang was still sleeping soundly. Thinking of the innocent owner of the body, she was so angry that she grabbed Zhang Guixiang’s hair and dragged her out of bed.
Zhang Guixiang woke up from her sleep and screamed in fear, “Aiya! Who’s grabbing my hair…”
Zhang Guixiang turned around and saw that it was Li Yu. She cursed, “Li Yu, you b*tch! How dare you pull my hair? I’ll beat you to death.”
Li Yu slapped her face twice, and Zhang Guixiang’s face instantly swelled up.
Li Yu looked at her coldly. “I’ll even hit you! Continue scolding me?”
Zhang Guixiang covered her face and looked fiercely at Li Yu’s pretty face. She cursed, “B*tch, how dare you hit me? Just you wait, I’ll cut your face into pieces and let my father sell you to the brothel to be a slut for the rest of your life.”
Li Yu looked at Zhang Guixiang and thought to herself that not only did she sleep with a clear conscience after killing someone, but she was also so vicious. Since she caused the Host to lose her life, she should pay with her descendant! Li Yu bent her index finger and hit Zhang Guixiang’s uterus.
“Mother… Ah… It hurts.” Zhang Guixiang bent over and groaned as she held her stomach.
Li Yu dragged her to the ground, picked up her belt, and tied her to the chair. Then, she took out a pair of scissors from the sewing basket on the table and gestured at her face. She said sinisterly, “You still want to cut someone’s face? Then I’ll cut your face first. Tell me, where’re your savings?”
Zhang Guixiang looked up in pain and begged for mercy when she saw the scissors in Li Yu’s hand. “Xiaoyu, I beg you. Don’t cut it. The money is in the porcelain pillow.”
Li Yu went over to pick up the porcelain pillow and reached into the hole to take out a pouch. She opened it and saw that there were indeed a few pieces of silver inside. Li Yu put the silver into her pocket and returned to Zhang Guixiang with the scissors.
Zhang Guixiang’s face was swollen as she cried and begged, “Li Yu, I won’t hit you or scold you anymore. I’ll let my brother marry you…”
“Marry him?I don’t care for it.”
Li Yu took a pair of smelly socks and stuffed them into her mouth. Zhang Guixiang looked at Li Yu in horror. She couldn’t understand why Li Yu had become so terrifying after just one night.
Li Yu looked at Zhang Guixiang coldly. “You heartless thing. You beat me to death in order to climb up the social ladder. I’m going to break off the engagement with your family today. Tell that ungrateful old thing in your family that I’m waiting for him in West Mountain Village to break off the engagement! Tell him not to play any tricks. If he angers me, my surname won’t be Li if I don’t make Zhang Guisheng a peddler.”
Li Yu took the scissors, turned around, pushed open the door, picked up her backpack, and walked to the courtyard door. She opened the courtyard door and walked towards the alley.
Li Qing was waiting anxiously and kept looking around. When he saw Li Yu, he welcomed her happily. “Sister, you’re here!”
“Yes! Let’s go! Take a mule cart back to Clearwater Town at the city gate.” Li Yu looked at Li Qing and said briskly.
Li Qing went over and held Li Yu’s hand. The siblings quickly walked to the city gate. “The people from Clearwater Town are leaving! The people from Clearwater Town are leaving!” The coachman shouted to attract business.
“Ah Qing, hurry up. There’s a mule cart going to Clearwater Town.” Li Yu pulled Li Qing forward and asked the coachman, “Uncle, how much does it cost to go to Clearwater Town?”
“Five copper coins each. Are you leaving? We’ll be leaving soon.” The middle-aged driver looked at the siblings eagerly and asked.
“Let’s go.” Li Yu and his sister got into the mule cart. The driver raised his whip and started running. Li Qing grabbed Li Yu’s collar tightly and smiled happily at him. “Sister, we’re going home.”
“Yes! We’re going home.” Li Yu said to Li Qing and thought to herself that she’ll be the ancient Li Yu from now on.
Zhang Defa thought about how he didn’t see Li Yu and her brother when he woke up this morning. He thought to himself, ‘I’m not afraid of the older one, but I’m afraid of the younger one. The younger one is like his mother and is very scheming. If I keep him any longer, I’m afraid something bad will happen.’
Zhang Defa called Chen Zhaodi, who was busy greeting customers, to the small hut at the back and instructed her, “Go find Granny Wang and give Li Yu and her brother to the potter. Let her sell them separately and sell them far away in the mountains so that they can never find their way back.”
Chen Zhaodi rolled her eyes at Zhang Defa and said angrily, “Why should I give them to her for free? It’s still silver even if I sell it for three to five taels.”
