Chapter 197: 197 Direct and Effective Method

197 Direct and Effective Method

Only then did Li Yu remember what Zhou Jia had mentioned about covering up for one’s family. She was furious. Why were women the ones who had to be tortured for thousands of years? The most hateful thing was that there was such a lousy law in this damn place to help the wicked!

Li Yu thought to herself, Since I can’t punish you with the law, there will be other more direct and effective methods!

“Alright, go and call the Zou family’s patriarch here and get someone to bring the Li family’s mother and daughter over.” Scribe Tu nodded and got the magistrate officers to take Madam Li and her daughter away while he went to call the Zou family’s patriarch.

Li Yu went to the stall beside the mat. When the lady boss saw Li Yu, she begged uneasily, “Madam, please help Madam Li and her daughter. I’ve been selling bamboo artifacts here for more than a year. Madam Li was bullied by that old beast! That old woman from the Zou family is also a woman. She even helped that old thing bully her daughter-in-law. Do you think she’s still human?”

“Okay.” Li Yu agreed briefly and drove back. When she reached home, she saw Scribe Tu sitting in the main room with a gray-haired, medium-sized old man. The Li mother and daughter were standing at the door with their heads lowered. When the old man saw Li Yu enter, he hurriedly stood up and bowed. “Chief Zou, Zou Yaozong greets Madam!”

Li Yu looked at Zou Yaozong and said, “As the patriarch, don’t you know that your Zou family is heartless and disregards human relationships? Or are you pretending to be deaf and mute for the sake of your face!”

Zou Yaozong thought to himself that the county magistrate’s wife was too direct! Besides, wasn’t a person living for his face?

Li Yu saw that Zou Yaozong lowered his head and didn’t answer. She said coldly, “Why? Is Patriarch Zou disdainful of answering my words?”

Zou Yaozong cupped his hands and said, “I wouldn’t dare! I’ve also heard about Zou Zude’s family matters, but Madam Li and Zou Zude’s wife have never come to the clan to talk about it. So it’s inappropriate for the clan to ask! After all, it’s not something glorious!”

Li Yu looked at Zou Yaozong. “You didn’t know before, but now you do! How do you plan to deal with this?”

Zou Yaozong said indifferently, “Madam, after what happened this morning, I persuaded Zou Zude and his wife to let Madam Li go home, but they refused no matter what. It’s not easy for us to control them!”

“Why did I hear that the Old Woman Tong accused Madam Li of being unfaithful and seduced her father-in-law, asking you to capture Madam Li and drown them?”

Zou Yaozong spread out his hands and said disapprovingly, “Madam! Madam Li said that Zude bullied her, but there was no witness! Old Woman Tong said that Zude had never done anything to let her son and daughter-in-law down. She said that Madam Li couldn’t hold on and wanted to go out to get married. She said that she was just blindly clinging to Zude.”

Li Yu looked at Zou Yaozong and finally understood why Zou Zude was so fearless towards Madam Li. It turned out that the patriarch of the Zou Clan was not a good person either!

“The law does not stipulate that women must abide by the rules. Your Zou Corporation can let the Li family mother and daughter go!”

When Zou Yaozong saw Li Yu looking at him coldly, he cupped his hands and said, “Madam! It’s fine if Madam Li returns home, but Zou Xia is the flesh and blood of my Zou Corporation. She can’t be taken away and has to stay in the Zou family!”

Madam Li, who had been silent with her head lowered, staggered in front of Li Yu. She knelt down and kowtowed with a face full of fear. “Madam, I’m not going home. I’m not leaving.”

Zou Yaozong looked at Madam Li and said, “What an embarrassment! Get lost!”

With a bang, a teacup fell on Zou Yaozong’s head. Zou Yaozong covered his head and looked at Li Yu angrily. Li Yu pointed at him and scolded, “When did it become your turn to interrupt my question? Someone, slap his face!”

Tiezhu walked in from outside the house. “Yes, Madam!” He slapped Zou Yaozong. After Zou Yaozong dodged, he pointed at Li Yu and said, “You’re just a woman in the backyard. You have no right to punish me.”

Li Yu looked at the Scribe Tu. “Scribe Tu, do you think I have the right to punish him for being disrespectful to me?”

Scribe Tu smiled apologetically and said, “Madam, you are the First-grade Madam Protector personally conferred by His Majesty. Of course, you have the right to deal with him!”

“Madam First-grade,” Zou Yaozong exclaimed. Li Yu looked at the terrified Zou Yaozong and instructed indifferently, “Tiezhu! Slap him 20 times as a warning to others.”

“Pa, pa…” The slaps sounded. After a while, Tiezhu bowed and said, “Madam, it’s over.”

Li Yu looked at Zou Yaozong, whose mouth was filled with blood and swollen like two sausages. She smiled faintly and said, “Take him out! I want Madam Li and her daughter to stay for a few days and talk to me!”

Zou Yaozong held his broken teeth and glared at Madam Li and her daughter before he was brought out by Tie Zhu.

Scribe Tu bowed to Li Yu and said, “Madam, those villagers are here to collect the food that the bandits snatched. I’m afraid Mr. Qian can’t handle it alone. I’ll help him!”

“Mr. Tu, go ahead.” After the scribe left, he wiped the sweat on his forehead and thought to himself, I didn’t expect Madam to be so scary when she gets angry!

Li Yu smiled at Madam Li, who was kneeling on the ground. “Get up. Don’t be afraid. Bring your daughter and stay here for a few days. I’ll think of a way!”

Madam Li looked at Li Yu’s smiling face and felt a warmth in her heart. There was a hint of life on her face as she bowed and said, “Madam, thank you. I’m not afraid anymore.”

“Xiaoyu, come in.” Li Yu looked at Madam Li and pointed at Xiaoyu. “Alright, go eat something with Xiaoyu and change your clothes.”

Xiaoyu smiled at Madam Li and said, “Come on! Let’s go eat something!”

Li Yu watched as Xiaoyu brought Madam Li and Zou Xia to the kitchen. She turned around and went to the backyard. Seeing that the courtyard was already covered with sun mats and the sun mats were filled with wheat seeds, she turned around and went out to look for Little Peach.

Little Peach and Aunt Zhang were sitting in the courtyard doing needlework. When the two of them saw Li Yu, they placed the embroidered shoes in the needlework and stood up with a smile. “Madam, are you done?”

Li Yu nodded and said to Little Peach, “Come with me. I have something to tell you!”

“Okay!” Yu Niang followed Li Yu to the central room in the backyard and sat down. Li Yu told Little Peach about Madam Li and said to her, “Go and talk to her and counsel her. Also, that daughter of hers, there will be problems if this continues!”

“Alright, I’ll go, Madam! That old thing is the worst. His eyes are red and he can’t walk when he sees women! I really want to cut him with a knife!”

Li Yu smiled and said, “Karma will come! He will suffer retribution!”

Yu Niang nodded and said, “Yes, that day will come. I’ll go and see if they’ve washed up!”

After Zou Yaozong was slapped by Li Yu, he returned home and explained to his son why he was beaten.

Zou Yaozong’s son was scared half to death. He said to Zou Yaozong, “Dad, what do you think a small clan leader like you is? How dare you contradict Madam First Grade? If she wants to mess with you, it’s as easy as squashing an ant! Are you trying to kill us? Hurry up and get Zou Zude to let that mother and daughter go.”

The more Zou Yaozong thought about it, the more afraid he became. He pointed at his swollen mouth and whimpered, “Look at your father. How can he face anyone? Why don’t you go?”

“I’m not going. You can go tomorrow! I feel disgusted when I see that old thing. I can’t wait to kill him with an axe!” Zou Yaozong’s son said in disgust.
