Chapter 141: Being beaten to a pulp
Chapter 141: Being beaten to a pulp
After leaving the weapons shop, Xia Shengsheng took the two girls to the jewelry shop and bought some pearl headbands.
She herself did not go empty-handed either. She not only bought two beautiful hairpins, but also a pair of teardrop-shaped jade earrings.
"Mom, you are so beautiful!"
"Yes! Mom, these earrings make you look really good. I won't buy things randomly anymore. I will save my pocket money and buy you jewelry to dress you up beautifully."
Xia Shengsheng chuckled and couldn't stop smiling.
It seems that among the children, the youngest Sicheng is the sweetest and the best at speaking.
But she likes children equally regardless of whether they can speak or not.
"Okay, then I'll wait for you to buy me some jewelry and dress me up beautifully."
Ye Chao and Er Cheng looked at the few silver coins in their hands and couldn't help but sigh.
If I had known this, I wouldn’t have bought that dagger.
Yiyi and Shanshan had the same idea.
Before I could pay the money, I heard a commotion outside.
The owner of the jewelry store couldn't help but go out to watch the fun.
Xia Shengsheng quickly settled the money, handed it to the clerk, and went out to see what was going on.
"Mom, let's go closer and take a look."
Ye Chao and Er Cheng ran over together.
Xia Shengsheng quickly reminded from behind.
"Stay away and don't cause trouble!!"
I felt relieved only after hearing the answer.
"Xiao Quan, go and have a look too, what's going on? There are too many people gathered here, we can't squeeze in!"
The guy named Xiao Quan had been itching to do something, but when he heard the boss's instructions, he happily agreed and ran out as fast as he could.
Who was it that pushed him left and right to squeeze into the crowd?
The owner of the jewelry store is a woman in her early 30s.
In fact, watching the fun is not only women’s nature, it is also something that everyone likes!
Xia Shengsheng did not bring Yiyi and the others forward.
It would be bad if the two little girls were squeezed.
Sicheng stamped his feet anxiously.
He was still thinking in his heart that his two brothers were so mean. They ran away so fast without taking him with them.
I will never be friends with them again.
The guy named Xiaoquan ran out from the crowd again after a while.
But Ye Chao and Er Cheng were nowhere to be seen.
"What happened? What's happening?" The owner of the jewelry shop went inside and grabbed a handful of melon seeds. He cracked the seeds and anxiously urged Xiao Quan to see what was happening over there.
"Don't mention it, people are being sold inside!" Xiao Quan said with a sigh.
The owner of the jewelry store put down the melon seeds he was about to eat and asked.
"Selling people? Just sell them. It's not like we haven't seen people being sold before. Why are so many people gathered here?"
Xia Shengsheng was also very curious, as she often visited the city.
She had long been accustomed to the ancient practice of buying and selling servants.
Normally, even if people were being sold, they wouldn't be displayed on such a busy street.
And there wouldn't be so many onlookers gathering around.
So I stood aside with some curiosity and continued to listen to Xiaoquan.
"This is different. The people being sold seem to be a family of three. The man is lying on the ground unconscious, and there is a woman with a child. Both of them are beaten all over their bodies. They look very pitiful.
Listening to their conversation, it seemed that the man had some serious illness, and the dental clinic refused to treat him, so the woman and the child dragged the man and secretly ran away from the clinic.
She was going to the drugstore on the corner to take her man to see a doctor, but before she even got there, she was caught by the people from the dental clinic.
"They were whipping them with a whip! Their skin was torn and their flesh was ripped, but the mother and daughter didn't even make a sound. It was really pitiful to see them."
While Xiaoquan was telling the story, a louder quarrel broke out inside.
Xia Shengsheng suddenly felt something was not right. He was afraid that Ye Chao and Ercheng would suffer, so he asked Yiyi to look after his younger siblings and quickly squeezed into the crowd.
When they got closer, they heard several big men threatening Ye Chao and Er Cheng.
"You two little bastards, your hair hasn't even grown out yet! How dare you come and meddle in my business?
Get out of here and go home to drink your milk! Otherwise I will kill you two!"
Ye Chao and Er Cheng were extremely angry. They were not angry about the two people being threatened. They were angry about the two burly men beating the poor mother and daughter without caring about their lives.
The two men looked at each other, and before Xia Shengsheng could squeeze over, they had already gone up and started fighting with the two big men.
The people around quickly dispersed, fearing that they would be implicated.
The two big guys didn't react at first. They never expected that the two little bastards they looked down upon would come up and start fighting without saying a word.
"Well, if I don't teach you two little bastards a lesson today, you won't know which way the door is opening."
There was absolutely no problem with Ye Chao and Er Cheng's martial arts moves, but they just suffered a loss.
It seemed that the two big men were about to hit Ye Chao and Er Cheng.
Xia Shengsheng finally squeezed in easily after the crowd dispersed.
He quickly rushed forward and kicked the two big men in the neck with a flying kick.
The two people were hit by this force and squatted on the ground, covering their necks.
The woman who was beaten to death on the ground was protecting her child. When she saw someone coming to rescue her, she first looked at the child, and then looked at the lifeless man lying on the ground.
Only then did he look at Xia Shengsheng and her son. A weak voice sounded, and it seemed impossible to hear it if you didn't listen carefully.
"Madam, two young masters, please don't worry about it. They are powerful and they don't want to cause you any trouble."
The two people who were holding their necks in pain also stood up at this time.
He drew the knife from his waist and pointed it directly at Xia Shengsheng.
Xia Shengsheng pulled Ye Chao and Er Cheng, who were about to take action, behind him.
After the crowd dispersed, Yiyi, Shanshan and others saw the situation on Xia Shengsheng's side and hurried over.
"mother……"
Xia Shengsheng opened his arms to stop the children who were about to move forward.
One of the big men recovered and stared at Xia Shengsheng viciously.
"Don't want to live? How dare we provoke you? Do you know who our boss is? You want to stand up for us when our central bank beats up our own servants? Today I will let you know how capable you are."
The people around were also talking in low voices.
Xia Shengsheng also learned something from everyone.
The owners behind this dental practice are either officials or powerful families in Ning'an Prefecture.
It seems that they really cannot be provoked. After all, they will still have to travel in Ning'an Prefecture in the future.
Yiyi also has to come to Ning'an Prefecture to study.
Xia Shengsheng didn't have such a strong backbone, so at this moment he could only put on a smile.
"I'm so sorry, you two uncles. I thought it was some street thug just now!
It was because I was short-sighted that I didn’t recognize the two gentlemen.
Fortunately, the two gentlemen did not argue with the young lady. How strong is the young lady? She certainly could not hurt the two gentlemen.
You two gentlemen are obviously very generous, so please show some mercy and forgive us, right?"
The two big men suddenly dropped their hands that were covering their necks.
I thought what Xia Shengsheng said was right. How much strength could a woman have? If the two of them made a fuss, wouldn't it mean that they, two tall and strong men, were injured by a woman and two babies?
How shameless!
