Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 859

Chapter 859: Someone They Can’t Offend!
Xiao Li nodded and said, “Father, this is Xiao Xi, your grandson.”

Then, he patted his son’s back gently and said, “Ah Xi, this is your grandfather, grandmother, and eldest maternal uncle.”

Xiao Xi looked at them curiously and said politely, “Grandpa, grandma, uncle, hello.”

When Father Liu, Mother Liu, and Liu Pan heard this, their faces were full of joy and surprise. Looking at Xiao Xi, they all had smiles on their faces. The more they looked at him, the more they liked him. What a smart baby, just like Liu Hua back then!

While the Liu family was having a reunion meal, Li Chenze was rushing to Zhang Ermu’s house. Today, his second brother is coming back with his girlfriend. He had sent a telegram asking him to come and fetch them.

Li Chenze thought that they must have brought a lot of things back, so he planned to borrow his friend’s ox cart. Of course, he did not come empty-handed and brought a large basket of food to Zhang Ermu.

Zhang Ermu’s home is located on the edge of the village, close to Yun village. Unlike other villagers, his grandparents were punished to work in the cow shed because they were landowners before. Although he and his parents are both farmers, he is often bullied by the villagers because of his blood relationship with ‘wicked people’.

Because of this, although Zhang Ermu’s help and kindness was rarely appreciated, he always tried his best to help the villagers. He just hopes that the villagers will stop harassing his family and give them a way to survive.

They even had to abandon their ancestral home, which is now the village hall, and move to a desolate place, living in an old house near a cowshed.

When Li Chenze approached Zhang Ermu’s house, he heard the sound of people arguing. Hearing the sound of something breaking, he quickened his pace and saw a group of villagers smashing things in the front yard.

Seeing this, he frowned and shouted angrily, “What are you doing?!”

After hearing his words, the villagers looked back and saw Li Chenze standing at the door, glaring at them.

Some villagers are from Yun village and do not know him. So, one of them pointed at him and asked, “Who are you? Don’t you see that we are teaching this wicked family a lesson?”

Looking at the messy yard, Li Chenze narrowed his eyes and asked, “Are you the leader of the production team? Are you a government worker? Are you a police officer? Who gave you the right to bully others like this?”

Hearing his series of questions, the villagers became unhappy and one of them retorted, “The elders of this family are landlords and they have been punished. Why can’t I discipline them? Do you know that if you protect a wicked person, you will bear the same crime and be punished like them?”

Li Chenze was amused by his words and said, “Then let me ask you, what does the wicked person have to do with this family?”

“Zhang Ermu’s grandparents are landlords, so of course his family is also a sinner,” another villager said arrogantly.

Hearing his words, Li Chenze sneered, “If they are sinners, why are they not punished by the government? Are you saying you are smarter than our leaders?”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, including Zhang Ermu. They looked at him with wide eyes, filled with mixed emotions.

Walking up to Zhang Ermu, Li Chenze added, “The leaders made it clear that only their grandparents are wicked people, and they have been undergoing reform through labor in the cowshed. As for the rest of the Zhang family, they are all farmers like us.”

“Now, everything you did was a crime. Not only did you destroy their personal belongings and invade their house, you also beat and threatened a good farming family.”

Li Chenze stood in front of Zhang Ermu and turned around to block the disdainful gazes of the villagers toward him. He looked at the villagers and said coldly, “What do you think will happen to you if I report this matter to the team leader? Will the team leader stand on your side or on the side of the law?”

After hearing his words, the villagers’ faces turned pale, and fear began to well up in their hearts. Over the years, when they came to the Zhang family’s house to grab things, or just beat the Zhang family to vent their dissatisfaction or anger, no one would stand up for them or say anything.

So, when they see someone protecting Zhang Ermu like this, they just feel like their faces were thrown to the ground, making them feel embarrassed and angry.

Looking at their expressions, Li Chenze knew what they were thinking. This is the way the world is. Even if there are laws, people will use laws and rules as justification to bully the weak. But the real reason is nothing more than their desire to feel better than others.

Before the villagers spoke or did anything, he warned them, “I advise you to think clearly before doing anything. My third brother was appreciated by the brigade secretary and received a commendation from the leader in recognition of his national contribution to the cause.”

“My family’s pig manure is used by several production teams. I believe that if my Li family reports this matter to the brigade secretary, none of you will be able to escape.”

“From today on, I will report anyone who dares to bully the Zhang family. I, Li Chenze, always do what I say. You try to bully others again and see what happens to you,” he added coldly.

When the villagers saw his smile, they suddenly trembled and chills ran down their spines. At this moment, the same thought came to everyone’s mind,’This person is serious with his words and is not someone they can offend!’
