Sweet Rustic Love: Four Brothers’ Wife

“Absolutely disgraceful!” Du Wenjin suddenly burst out and chided her. “Zhang Yeshi, do you have any proof that I am covering up for the Ye brothers? I can bring you to the government office to be punished for such baseless slander, no matter how pregnant you are. You will be given fifty slaps as a warning to others!”

Although the village chief of a small village wasn’t a major government official, he was still a public official. How could she slander him as she pleased?

The furious Du Wenjin looked at Ye Lanlan sternly and this scared her so much she suddenly trembled and hastily apologized. “Village chief, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have said such words. Please don’t send me to the government office to be slapped…”

Du Wenjin wasn’t a petty-minded person. When he heard her apologize in fear, he no longer spoke sternly and instead said good-naturedly, “Zhang Yeshi, I will forget it since it was your first offense. I definitely won’t forgive you so easily the next time. Understood?”

“I understand, I understand.”

Liu Duo and the others saw how Ye Lanlan groveled and they felt this person was someone who would bully the weak and was scared of the strong! Of course, even if they hadn’t asked the village chief to come, they wouldn’t be afraid of Ye Lanlan kicking up a fuss.

Out of consideration for the fact that she was pregnant, Du Wenjin bent down and helped her up. “Zhang Yeshi, if you have any difficulties, you can come to find me. You don’t need to force people to lend you money and forcefully stay in their house. Moreover, do you really think the Ye brothers, your cousins, are so easy to bully?”

He did not think Ye Yang and the others were easy to bully. Ye Mo alone already had a reputation for his temper. Furthermore, Ye Yang also lived here. He only needed to stand up and people wouldn’t dare do anything to them! Although Ye Liu appeared to be very kind and was always smiling, when he became fierce, he became deadly. Ye Ling was the gentlest one of the four brothers. However, with three brothers keeping watch, who would dare to bully their family?

Moreover, even if the four brothers were set aside, he didn’t feel Liu Duo was someone who could easily be bullied either!

Ye Lanlan got up as he helped her up. There was no way she could refuse and insult the village chief when he personally helped her up, right?

She used her sleeves to wipe her tears, nodded, and said, “Village chief, I only asked them to help me because I have no other choice. Otherwise, I really don’t know what else I should do…”

She lamented everything to Du Wenjin one by one. From why she needed to separate from her family, to how urgently she needed money, and how she needed to find somewhere to stay because her grandmother-in-law wouldn’t allow her to go back.

Burly Du didn’t find her to be pitiful when he heard her. He said disdainfully, “So this made you think you have the right to make a scene by doing something so shameless as forcing others to lend you money and giving you a place to stay?”

Liu Duo and her family, on the other hand, didn’t speak out again. They would just let the village chief resolve this issue. In any case, they would definitely not lend her money or let her stay here!

Du Wenjin frowned. “Zhang Yeshi, separating from your family is a major decision. You need to consider it carefully. If your husband acknowledges his mistakes, repents, and stops going to those filthy places, it would be better if you just go on living normally. This is to avoid your child not having a father when he is born.”

“Moreover, it is normal to have minor conflicts with your in-laws. Why are you fussing over it?”

He advised her by following the principle, it would be better to tear down ten temples than to destroy a marriage.

In response, Ye Lanlan wanted to say something but Du Wenjin continued to say, “I think it would be better if we went to your house to discuss this. While we are there, we can also listen to your husband’s and grandmother’s thoughts and decisions.”

He said to Ye Yang and the others before receiving Ye Lanlan’s answer, “Ye brothers, you guys go ahead and go about with your business. If you have anything else you need to see me about in the future, you can come to find me.”

Ye Yang and the others immediately nodded in reply. They respected this village chief very much.

“Definitely. Now that that’s settled, village chief, thank you for your trouble.” Ye Liu smiled at him.
