Chapter 595: Chapter 599: Feeling Inadequate_1
Tan Zhengyuan still clenched his teeth while Qiao Duo’er grasped one of his fingers and pulled it back.
Soon, one finger was dislocated.
Qiao Duo’er said wickedly, "It’s okay if you don’t confess, there are still nine fingers left. After all the fingers are broken, there are still arms and thighs to be dealt with – we can take our time!"
Tan Zhengyuan was already sweating coldly from the pain, and his body began to tremble after hearing Qiao Duo’er’s words.
Was Qiao Duo’er even human? She was simply a demon!
As he cursed Qiao Duo’er, the second finger suffered a noble sacrifice.
"Help, Qiao Duo’er is trying to kill me! Save me!" Tan Zhengyuan wailed.
But the others couldn’t help but applaud; it was truly satisfying to them!
"Well done, Duo’er! This kind of behavior deserves more than death – only breaking two fingers is getting off lightly!"
"To harm one’s own daughter to such an extent, you should be burnt to death!"
Wang Clan protested, but her words were completely ignored by everyone else.
In the end, Tan Zhengyuan gave in.
"I’ll talk, I’ll tell you everything... I sold Da Ya and Er Ya to Xiao Lingchuan, all this silver was given by Xiao Lingchuan. If you want the children, go to Xiao Lingchuan, I know nothing!" 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘱𝘶𝑏.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Hu’s Clan’s eyes were bloodshot; she slapped Tan Zhengyuan across the face on both sides.
How could he utter such insanely cruel words?
"Folks, let’s tie him up and send him to the clan hall; such a heartless person doesn’t deserve to live in our village!"
A man looked disdainfully at Tan Zhengyuan.
He felt humiliated to have such a disgrace among men!
Everyone agreed with this approach, and several men had already hoisted Tan Zhengyuan up.
"Let’s go to the clan hall together. The Xiao Family is no good either. As long as they are in the village, children will continue to go missing. Let’s talk to the village chief about it!"
"What are you doing? Da Ya and Er Ya are seeds of the Old Tan Family; selling my family’s girls is none of your business!"
Wang Clan hurried to block the way, for if they took Tan Zhengyuan away, he was bound to suffer severe physical punishment.
"Sister Lan has already divorced Tan Zhengyuan, and it’s clearly written on the divorce paper that Da Ya and Er Ya are to be raised by Sister Lan. Tan Zhengyuan’s actions amount to stealing someone else’s children!"
"If she hadn’t treated Zheng Hong that way, our eldest wouldn’t have copied her. Today she’ll learn her lesson too!"
"Don’t waste any more time – let’s get this sorted so we can redeem the girl!"
So several robust women also lifted Wang Clan.
If someone lacks respect for their elders, then it’s best to deal with them all at once and save future trouble.
Surprisingly, with all this commotion, the other members of the Tan Family did not even show their faces.
Especially Little Wang Clan, she was enjoying herself at the moment.
Little Wang Clan said happily, "It would be best if they were locked up for ten or eight years; that would deal with two pests at once!"
With no mother-in-law over her and no longer worrying about her property growing legs, she suddenly felt her life was perfect!
Second Brother Tan turned over and faced the wall.
The people who were just taken away were his mother and older brother, and he really felt unsettled.
"Are you feeling sorry for them now? Haven’t you considered that ever since we split the household, our silver has been running out like water? Twenty Taels for the third branch to cure tuberculosis, and your mother still wants to give two more acres of land to the main branch. Are you stupid?"
Tan Zhengyuan said impatiently, "You’re right about everything, I’m tired now, going to sleep."
Actually, he wanted to say that all their money had recently gone to Wang Xiaofeng to buy books and ink for his scholar exams; although he only placed last, he still made a grand display of it.
But after all, that man has a title to his name; he could only silently bear it.
Who told him to be so useless?
