Chapter 137: Murder in broad daylight
The older uncle on the side also rushed up quickly, hugged the big man's legs tightly, and shouted at Shen Yunyu: "Master, take the young lady away quickly."
The big man was furious when he saw that his good thing was ruined by these two people. He cursed: "You old fool, you really think they are your young master and young lady!"
After saying that, he swung his fat fist and hit his uncle hard.
At this critical moment, Shen Yiran's eyes flashed, and her body moved as fast as lightning. She kicked the big man's wrist accurately, and the big man felt pain and his fist deviated from the direction.
Shen Yiran took the opportunity to stand in front of his uncle, glared at the big man, and shouted: "You evil man, how dare you commit a crime in broad daylight? Today I will teach you a lesson."
The big man was enraged and rushed towards Shen Yiran again with his fangs and claws bared. Shen Yiran was not afraid at all, and nimbly dodged the big man's attack and occasionally found the right opportunity to counterattack.
Sometimes she dodged the big man's attack, and sometimes she hit him hard in the abdomen with her elbow. Although the big man was burly, his movements were very clumsy, and he gradually lost his composure under Shen Yiran's attack.
Shen Yiran seized the opportunity and kicked the big man in the chin with a spinning kick. The big man staggered back a few steps and finally fell heavily to the ground.
I saw him covering his chin with both hands, his face twisted in pain, and howling like a pig being slaughtered.
His eyes were wide open, filled with fear and anger, and a few tears squeezed out of the corners of his eyes because of the pain. The arrogant and domineering look was gone, replaced by an ugly and embarrassed look.
His body was twisting on the ground like a badly injured fat worm, with a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth. He looked both pitiful and ridiculous, without any trace of the arrogance he had just had.
Shen Yiran looked at the miserable people on the ground, and the anger in her heart subsided a little. She yelled at them, "Get out of here! Remember to tell your Madam Lan."
The big man and several of his followers were so scared when they heard Shen Yiran's roar that they pissed and shit themselves and rushed to the door, crawling.
The big man covered his chin with one hand, his steps were unsteady, he walked from side to side, and from time to time he tripped over his own feet, then struggled to get up and continued running.
The followers were also in a panic. Some lost their hats, some dropped their shoes, but they did not dare to look back to pick them up and just fled in panic.
They looked so miserable, like a group of rats that had been beaten and were fleeing in panic.
Shen Yiran looked at their backs as they rolled out in embarrassment and clapped his hands with satisfaction.
"You must be joking. I used to be the champion of a martial arts competition! They really don't know their place. But it's good. Let her practice. She hasn't stretched her muscles for a long time." Her words were full of pride.
Shen Yunyu and her uncle beside her looked at her in disbelief. Shen Yunyu spoke first, asking cautiously, "Little sister, you...how did you become so amazing? You've only been married for two months, how come you've become a completely different person?"
The uncle also echoed, "Yes, Miss, you have changed so much. You scared me a lot just now. The Miss in my memory is not like this."
Shen Yiran was slightly startled after hearing what they said, and thought to himself, "It's over. I was so busy showing off my power that I forgot to restrain myself. Oh... I really got carried away!"
She turned around, cleared her throat, and said, "Isn't it because my son-in-law is afraid that I will be bullied that he specially teaches me martial arts?"
After that, Shen Yiran started to pick up the overturned tables and chairs one by one, then walked to the table with tea and sat down, and said to the two of them in a gentle voice: "I'm sorry, I scared you just now. Come, have a cup of tea to calm your nerves."
Shen Yiran poured a cup of tea for each of them and handed it to Shen Yunyu and his uncle respectively, with a hint of apology and comfort in his eyes.
The two did not want to reject Shen Yiran's kindness, so they picked up the teacup, took a sip and put it down again. Shen Yiran also poured herself a cup of tea and drank it all in one gulp. After the fight just now, she was really thirsty. The two looked at her drinking tea, both of them thoughtful.
At this moment, Shen Yiran finally reacted and thought to herself, "Oh no! Young ladies in ancient times would never drink tea as heartily as she does..."
She slowly put down the teacup and said awkwardly, "I'm thirsty... I'm really thirsty..." The two people beside her looked at her, just smiled slightly, and said nothing.
The atmosphere suddenly became heavy. In the end, Shen Yiran was the first to break the silence, "Old man, shouldn't you be in the same group with them? Why did you risk standing up to protect us just now?"
Shen Yunyu was also confused.
The old man sighed, his eyes gradually turned red, and he said with self-blame: "It is this old servant who has let Madam down!"
Shen Yiran was startled when he heard this and asked in confusion: "Do you know my mother?"
The old man nodded, and then looked at Shen Yunyu: "Master, don't you remember this old servant?"
After Shen Yunyu heard what the old man said, he looked at him intently. After a long while, he asked tentatively, "Are you Li... Uncle Li?"
The old man nodded vigorously, "Yes, it's the old slave."
"Uncle Li, it's really you! I haven't seen you come to the mansion since my mother left. I thought you were no longer working in the Shen Mansion."
"Master, since Madam left, the affairs of the Shen Mansion's backyard have been managed by Aunt Lan. The previous servants were either dismissed directly or sent to various shops or farms."
Shen Yiran thought that a servant in a mansion who could risk his own safety to protect her and her elder brother must be very loyal to his master.
Shen Yiran said to Uncle Li gratefully: "Uncle Li, thank you for standing up for us just now."
Uncle Li looked at Shen Yiran and said self-reproachfully, "Miss, please stop saying that. If it weren't for Madam's help, my family would have been destroyed long ago."
Uncle Li looked at Shen Yiran again, as if he had thought of something, and said happily, "Miss, your face has healed, that's great."
Uncle Li continued, “A month before you were taken back to the Shen Mansion, my maid went to the village to see you, and when she came back she said that if the eldest lady’s face could get better.
This way, she will suffer less in her husband's family. If the old woman knew that the young lady's face had recovered, she would definitely be very happy. "
As Shen Yiran listened to Uncle Li's words, a warm feeling surged in her heart and a layer of mist unconsciously formed in her eyes.
She raised her head, held back the tears in her eyes, and looked at Uncle Li again, asking, "Uncle Li, when did you enter the mansion? You just said that my mother was your savior, where did you get that from?"
"My lady, I will tell you right away." Uncle Li looked towards the door with a serious expression, as if he was recalling something distant.
Then, he slowly spoke: "Back then, I first came to the capital with my wife to seek refuge with relatives. At that time, my wife was already pregnant and was about to give birth.
Who would have thought that instead of finding my relatives, I was unlucky enough to run into a group of hooligans. They beat me up and insulted my wife. My husband and I fell into despair, and we cried out to the sky and the earth, but no one answered.
