Chapter 294 – Xiao Xiaobao Gets Beaten Up

Xiao Xiaohui frowned. He said, “Where did your family get so much money? Your family still owes my second uncle’s family more than 100,000 RMB.” At this point, he immediately thought of something and said loudly, “Oh, I get it now. Your family has money, but you’re not willing to pay the debt!”
Xiao Xiaobao immediately defended himself, “No!”
“Yes! You don’t want to clear the debt even if you have the money! Shameless!” Xiao Xiaohui shouted back.
Then, the two of them started fighting.
This naturally alerted the villagers.
The villagers were stunned when they saw a large amount of money in Xiao Xiaobao’s hands.
Xiao Chengbo immediately asked, “Xiao Xiaobao, where did you get the money? There are at least tens of thousands in your hands.”
Xiao Xiaobao was still a little afraid when facing an adult. He hugged the money tightly and said loudly and aggrievedly, “This is my family’s money. I didn’t steal it. It’s my family’s money.”
When Xiao Chengbo heard that, he was suspicious. He asked, “Your family’s money? But didn’t your father say your family has no money? Where did this money come from?”
Xiao Xiaobao said, “I got it from my family. My family has money. My Big Brother hid a lot of money.” He didn’t know how much money there was, but he knew that there was a lot of money just by looking at the stacks he found.
Xiao Chengbo felt that this wasn’t a small matter, so he immediately got someone to call Xiao Chengcai over.
However, before Xiao Chengcai arrived, the other villagers had already gathered. After all, the children were quite noisy. When they saw their own children involved, the worried parents rushed over.
When they saw Xiao Xiaobao hold so much money in his hands, they were shocked. He even said that the money belonged to his family.
When Xiao Chengcai arrived, his face was dark. He quickly walked to Xiao Xiaobao and snatched the money from his hand. Then, he raised his palm and smacked Xiao Xiaobao’s face.
Xiao Chengcai scolded sternly, “Bastard, how can you steal from the family?!” Then, he looked around. When he saw the money in the other children’s hands, his expression became even worse.
He immediately counted the money and found that it was 1,500 RMB short.
He demanded from Xiao Xiaobao, “The money is 1500 short. Where’s the money?”
Xiao Xiaobao covered his mouth and burst into tears. Xiao Chengcai said impatiently, “Stop crying and tell me or I’ll have you sleep in the cattle pen for the night.”
The cattle pen was dirty and smelly, and there were many mosquitoes and insects. Xiao Xiaobao didn’t want to stay there for an hour, much less a night.
Xiao Xiaobao immediately pointed at the children who had taken his money and said in fear, “I gave them the money. Some got fifty, some got one hundred, and so on.”
Xiao Chengcai walked toward the children with a gloomy face and said, “Give me back the money.”
When the children saw Xiao Chengcai’s terrifying expression, they were so frightened. They all wanted to cry. Their parents immediately jumped in.
Someone questioned loudly, “Xiao Chengcai, you are scaring the children.”
Someone added, “Why are you doing this to the kids? Xiao Xiaobao voluntarily gave the money to the children. No one forced him.
“Since the children now have the money, it’s theirs now. Are you actually asking for the money back from kids? Have you no shame?”
Actually, the person who said this was shameless too. Her goal was the money in her children’s hands. Of course, she wanted the money, and her children were the best excuse.
However, Xiao Chengcai stretched out his hand and didn’t say anything more. He directly said, “This money is mine. Return the money to me. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude.”
The woman thought of Xiao Chengcai’s cold-blooded and ruthless treatment of Zhang Xiaolan. She felt a little scared.
She immediately took the money from her children and threw it at Xiao Chengcai. “Take it back. It was just two hundred RMB. Do you need to act like this?”
The other parents also did the same. They returned the money to Xiao Chengcai. Xiao Chengcai quickly counted the money. It finally matched.
Some villagers immediately asked in puzzlement, “Xiao Chengcai, you clearly have money. Why haven’t you paid off your debt to Xiao Chengyang’s family?”
Xiao Chengcai coldly glanced at that person and said in a cold voice, “It’s none of your business!”
The person shut up immediately. This was a matter between Xiao Chengcai and Xiao Zhengyang’s family. Indeed, it had nothing to do with them.
However, the villagers still muttered. “Xiao Chengcai is clearly rich. But where did he get so much money from? But his riches are exposed. I wonder if Xiao Lingyu’s family will come to ask for compensation.”
The news of Xiao Chengcai’s family having 40,000 RMB quickly spread throughout the village.
When the villager heard this news, he immediately curled his lips and said, “Truly a book can’t be judged from its cover. We thought he was someone who loved his wife, but when something happened, he wanted to divorce her immediately.
“He said his family is poor, but we are the ones who are poor.
“In this village, how many families can have savings up to 40,000? But, Xiao Chengcai was still complaining that he didn’t have the money to compensate Xiao Zhengyang. But his brother found out that he had 40,000. This man is such a liar!”
“That’s right!”
“He has 40,000 RMB in his family, but he claimed that he had no money. He even divorced his wife in prison to get away from the debt. How can he be so hateful?”
“Only the dogs who don’t bark will really bite.”
Xiao Chengcai would be criticized for being heartless and cold-blooded wherever he went.
Xiao Chengcai was so angry that he tied his younger brother to a tree. He picked up a whip and lashed him. Xiao Xiaobao cried out loudly.
When the villagers heard the child’s scream, they immediately rushed into the house. When they saw Xiao Xiaobao being hung and whipped, they immediately put him down and sent people to find Xiao Chengcai’s mother.
The villager cornered Xiao Chengcai and said angrily, “Xiao Chengcai, are you trying to kill Xiao Xiaobao? He is your younger brother!”
After Xiao Xiaobao was rescued, he cried until he was out of breath. He was frightened and uneasy when he saw his big brother.
Xiao Chengcai said unhappily, “I was teaching my brother a lesson. This is my family’s business. It has nothing to do with you.”
“That’s true but is your brother not a human being?” Xiao Chengfa said with extreme anger, “See how badly you’ve whipped him! His whole body is covered in blood. Are you really going to beat him to death?”
Xiao Chengcai did not speak.
At this time, Xiao Chengcai’s mother ran in after receiving the news. When she saw her youngest son and his bleeding body, her heart immediately ached.
She hugged Xiao Xiaobao and cried, “My dear, did you suffer? Does it hurt?”
Xiao Xiaobao cried loudly, “Mother, Big Brother hit me. It was so painful. He wants to kill me. Look at my body.” Xiao Xiaobao showed the injuries on his body to his mother.
Xiao Chengcai’s mother looked at the injuries, and tears welled in her eyes. “Dear. Don’t worry. Mother will protect you.”
After saying that, Xiao Chengcai’s mother turned around and raised her palm, and smacked Xiao Chengcai’s face.
Then, Xiao Chengcai’s mother roared angrily, “Xiao Chengcai, you bastard, why did you do such a ruthless thing to your brother? Do you want to kill your brother? If that’s the case, then kill me first!”
She looked around and saw the sickle in the corner. She ran to pick up the sickle and ran back.
Xiao Chenglin saw this and was shocked. “Auntie, what are you doing with the sickle?”
Xiao Chengcai’s mother ignored him and handed the sickle to Xiao Chengcai. She said loudly, “Take it. Didn’t you want to kill your brother? Fine, then kill me first.”
Xiao Chengcai didn’t take the sickle at all. He just kept a gloomy face and didn’t say anything, but his eyes were staring at his mother.
Xiao Chenglin didn’t want to meddle in other people’s family business, but he was really afraid that lives would be lost.
He immediately went forward and snatched the sickle from Xiao Chengcai’s mother’s hand. Then, he persuaded her, “Auntie, let’s talk it out. There’s no need to involve dangerous weapons.”
Xiao Chengcai didn’t say anything, but Xiao Chengcai’s mother wasn’t willing to let him off so easily. She said, “Xiao Chengcai, let me tell you. In the future, as long as I’m around, don’t even think about touching Xiaobao!”
