Wen Li doesn't like to meddle in other people's business. Is Liu Pan'er pitiful?

Of course she's pitiful, but if she can't stand on her own two feet, no one can help her!

Moreover, with Liu Pan'er's two daughters dying one after another, Wen Li didn't believe there was nothing fishy going on. She herself didn't feel sorry for them, so how could outsiders care?

"Why doesn't this jinx, who can't do anything right, just die?" another sarcastic voice came.

Wen Li turned her head and saw a middle-aged woman who looked about 60% like Zhang Cuicui running over. As soon as she got there, she raised her foot and kicked Liu Pan'er, who was squatting on the ground, hard.

Liu Pan'er was already feeling unwell, and the force of the impact sent her sprawling to the ground. She lay there, unable to get up, and her face grew paler and paler.

Wen Li frowned. Although she didn't like to meddle in other people's business, Liu Pan'er's expression clearly wasn't right. She stood up to go and see what was going on, but Aunt Wang stopped her.

"Don't go over there! The Zhang family are all scoundrels; they might try to extort you!"

Seeing Liu Pan'er unable to get up from the ground and only able to wriggle and hide, Wen Li finally softened. "Aunt Wang, that's a human life after all!"

Wen Li stepped forward and helped Liu Pan'er up from the ground. Liu Pan'er couldn't help but hiss. Only then did Wen Li see the exposed skin on her arm. There was almost no good flesh, and some wounds were even festering.

Wang Youlan's kick just now was quite heavy; Wen Li didn't know where to begin.

"How are you? Where does it hurt?"

Liu Pan'er's eyes reddened, and she bit her lip tightly to keep the tears from falling. Then she gently shook her head and said in a weak voice, "Don't worry about me, they'll try to extort you!"

Wen Li took the opportunity to check Liu Pan'er's pulse. The more she checked, the more serious Wen Li's expression became. Liu Pan'er's body was severely depleted, and coupled with the fact that she had not taken good care of herself after giving birth, her qi and blood were severely deficient, and she was now running a high fever.

Given her current condition, if things continue like this, she probably won't live much longer.

No wonder her complexion was so strange. She had a high fever and still wanted to fetch water. I don't know what she was thinking.

"What are you doing?" Wang Youlan saw someone dare to come out to help Liu Pan'er and immediately stepped forward to push Wen Li away.

Chen Yan also saw the wounds on Liu Pan'er's body, and her anger flared up. Just as Wang Youlan's hand was about to touch Wen Li, Chen Yan pushed her away.

"Get out of here, you beast!"

When Zhang Cuicui saw Chen Yan push her mother, she rushed forward to tear at Chen Yan, yelling, "You bitch, how dare you hit my mother?"

Chen Yan was pushed by Zhang Cuicui and almost lost her balance. She steadied herself and raised her hand to hit Zhang Cuicui.

When Wang Youlan saw her daughter being bullied, she immediately stepped forward and grabbed Chen Yan's hand. The mother and daughter worked together, and Chen Yan couldn't break free at all.

"You shrew, let me go!" Chen Yan wasn't one to back down either, grabbing Zhang Cuicui's hair and refusing to let go.

But she was alone after all, and soon found herself at a disadvantage.

Seeing that Chen Yan was about to suffer a loss, Wen Li got up, grabbed Wang Youlan's arm, and slapped her twice across the face.

Without Wang Youlan, Chen Yan, who was already tall, yanked Zhang Cuicui aside and kicked her in the stomach, causing Zhang Cuicui to fall to the ground.

Wang Youlan hadn't expected Wen Li to be so strong. Seeing that she couldn't beat her, she sat down on the ground and started wailing.

"Help! The educated youth are beating people! Is there no justice left? I don't want to live anymore!"

When people saw that a fight had broken out, they all gathered around. Some were watching the spectacle, while others advised Wang Youlan not to go too far.

However, Wang Youlan was a notorious shrew in the village. Anyone who dared to advise her would not only curse them but also spit at them.

Nobody wanted to get involved with the Zhang family, and since they couldn't reason with them, they could only stand there and watch.

Once the people in her way had all left, Wang Youlan sat on the ground again, wailing and crying, "Help! The educated youth are beating people! Help!"

Several of Wen Li's aunts who were close to her shook their heads helplessly.

"Little Pear is probably in big trouble now!" Aunt Zhang said with a worried look.

"Sigh, I was just advising her not to get involved, but she's too soft-hearted!"

Wen Li gave Wang Youlan a cold look. "If you keep howling, I'll go to the police station and report you for abusing your daughter-in-law!"

"You...you hit someone and you think you're in the right? That's my family's business, what's it to you?"

Even though Wang Youlan was fierce, she was illiterate. Most villagers were afraid of going to the police station, so she felt a little guilty when she saw Wen Li was going to report to the police.

"Look at yourself! Liu Pan'er's injuries are proof. She has a high fever, yet you made her do such heavy work. You're practically murdering her!"

Although the villagers knew that the Zhang family was abusing Liu Pan'er, none of them had ever seen the injuries on her body. The main reason was that Liu Pan'er always wore long sleeves, so no one could see them. But when the sleeves were opened, the injuries on her arms were clearly visible.

Liu Pan'er's arm was covered in bloody wounds, almost no one was in good condition. It looked like she had been scalded by hot water, and many parts of it were still bleeding, which was quite disturbing to look at.

Chen Yan felt pain just looking at her. "Pah! Your whole family are animals! Is she even human? How could you do that?"

"Who said I hit her? She lost her balance and fell!" Wang Youlan was afraid that Wen Li would really report it to the police, so she stopped crying and quickly started to argue.

Everyone could tell she was guilty.

"Everyone just saw how you abused Liu Pan'er, and the police can easily determine the cause of these injuries with a single examination. Don't try to shirk responsibility!"

"I...I...I..." Wang Youlan was a little flustered. She had been a tyrant in the village for many years, but she had never encountered someone like Wen Li who would call the police at the drop of a hat. For a moment, she didn't know what to do.

"You dare to report this to the police? Do you think everyone agrees?" Zhang Cuicui stood up, clutching her stomach, and looked at Wen Li with a smug expression.

Although the villagers also disliked the Zhang family, they would definitely disagree with reporting it to the police. After all, it would be disgraceful to talk about it once it got out, and it would also affect the village's selection of advanced brigades.

Liu Pan'er was no match for the village's honor, and for a moment everyone looked at Wen Li with hostility.

Just then, a clear female voice came from behind the crowd.

"Wen, Aunt Wang is old, don't scare her. The police station won't get involved in this kind of family matter."

Everyone turned around and saw Jiang Yue'er.

The villagers suddenly realized, "Oh right, why would the police get involved in this kind of thing?"

Wang Youlan realized that Wen Li was just trying to scare her! She immediately became smug.

"That's right, this is a family matter. You dare call the police? See if they'll even bother with you! Let me tell you, you have to pay me a hundred yuan today, or I'm not letting this go!"

Wen Li narrowed her eyes. Wasn't the hostess supposed to be beautiful and kind-hearted, as innocent as the purest jasmine flower in the mountains?

Is this what they mean by "beautiful inside and out"?

"Wen Zhiqing, you can't report this to the police!" an old man said repeatedly.

People around Wen Li also tried to persuade her not to make a big deal out of it. They even changed the way they looked at Wen Li, as if they would stop her at all costs if she dared to call the police.
