Chapter 51: Help!

 Chapter 51: Help!

Ruan Laoda dropped his broken pole and tried to pounce on her. Seizing the opportunity, Shu Yu swung her axe and placed it firmly against his neck.

Ruan Laoda's breathing stopped, and his eyes widened in fear.

Shu Yu said, "Try moving again and see what happens."

"What do you want to do? I am your uncle. You dare not kill me?" Ruan Laoda asked.

Shu Yu stepped on Ruan Lao Er's back as he tried to stand up, and pressed him back down to the ground. She then looked calmly but menacingly at Ruan Laoda and said, "I was just joking. I am a good person and of course, I will not kill you. But, it wouldn't be a problem to leave you with some injuries that will make you half-disabled for the rest of your life and confined to bed."

"You..." the old lady stopped crying, looking at her two sons being held down by one person, and started to panic. Especially with Shu Yu holding an axe so close to Ruan Laoda's neck that a slight movement could easily sever it.

Ruan's mother got up quickly from the ground, rushed out of the courtyard and shouted, "Help! Someone has been killed! Help!"

Lu Sanzhu was originally blocking the courtyard door and was bumped by the old lady Ruan. He almost fell down.

Mainly because he had weak legs, and Shu Yu's murderous aura was too terrifying just now.

By the time he had stabilized himself, many people who had heard the commotion had already walked over from nearby.

Lu Sanzhu quickly took two steps back and hid behind the door.

The villagers of Ruan's village followed Ruan's mother into the courtyard and were shocked to see the mess. They exclaimed, "What happened here?" They then looked at the Ruan brothers being pressed down by Shu Yu with an axe, and were even more horrified, "Who are you? What do you want?"

Shu Yu raised her head, glanced at several villagers who had come in, and said, "Who am I? My father is Lu Erbai and he is married to Ruan's family. My mother is Ruan's Shi. I am Lu's second daughter. So, now you know who I am, right?"

The villagers who had originally been fierce and threatening suddenly froze, was this the rumored Second Miss who had been found?

Shu Yu sneered, "I think you all know what the Ruan family has done to me. Now that I am here for revenge, it is a matter between our families, a personal grievance. Do you really want to interfere?"

The villagers looked at each other in confusion. It was true that this was a family matter. After all, Lu Er Bai second daughter was old lady Ruan's granddaughter.

But even so, no granddaughter should destroy her grandparent's house like this and leave her uncle paralyzed.

Someone tried to reason with her, "Lu girl, even if Ruan Pozi has done wrong to you, you have already come back, and you seem to be doing well. She is still your grandmother and an elder. You shouldn't lay your hands on her."

"Yes, let go of her and apologize to your uncle. They won't blame you," someone else added.

Shu Yu found it ridiculous. "Apologize to them? If I didn't spare them, it would have been merciful. Either don't interfere or come and try my axe."

Some people didn't like her attitude and wanted to approach her, but they were wary of the axe in her hand.

The villagers whispered among themselves in the courtyard. Ruan Pozi saw that no one was taking action and began pounding her thighs, "Quickly, save my son! We are all from Ruan Family Village, how can we allow an outsider to cause trouble in our village? What will happen to our face if this spreads?"

The people from Ruan Family Village felt that old lady Ruan was right, even if they didn't like her on ordinary days. But an outsider had entered the village and was calling for violence, and they couldn't just sit back and do nothing.
