Chapter 130 A punch was thrown.
"Xia Shenggen?"
Liu's mother gritted her teeth and tentatively called out.
Brother Xia recognized Liu's mother and He's mother long ago; he would never forget the two families who had kicked him when he was down.
When Brother Xia heard Liu's mother call him, he only gave her a look.
As if receiving some kind of signal, Liu's mother rushed to Brother Xia and reached out to touch the fabric of his clothes.
Just because the Liu and He families couldn't afford it doesn't mean they hadn't seen this kind of weaving and embroidery. This kind of weaving and embroidery involves weaving the pattern directly onto the cloth while weaving, forming a subtle pattern that reveals its luster under light reflection. Although it's made of cotton thread, its value is no less than that of silk. Some of the more exquisite patterns are even several times more expensive than silk!
The fabric of the clothes that the Xia family is wearing now was bought in the prefectural city at the end of summer, and they are all handmade by Xia's mother.
Brother Xia's face darkened, and he took a step back to avoid Liu's mother's outstretched hand.
Liu's mother couldn't touch Xia's clothes, so she reached out again.
Brother Xia continued to retreat.
That is, at this moment—
"Indecent assault!"
The veil covering Xia Mo's face couldn't hide her screams at all.
Xia Mo's roar startled everyone on the street, causing them to stop and look over.
"You old woman, you're not allowed to molest my brother!" Xia Mo's finger was practically pointing at Liu's mother's nose.
Those present, surrounding Xia Mo and the others, all turned to look at Liu's mother.
With so many eyes on Liu's mother, she felt as if she were being torn apart by their gazes.
"You, you, you, don't talk nonsense!" Liu's mother retorted loudly but weakly.
"Who was that person who tried to touch my brother just now?!" Xia Mo shouted.
Liu's mother swallowed and said, "I just wanted to touch the fabric of his clothes."
"If you touch someone, you can say you wanted to touch the fabric of their clothes. But can other people say the same thing? What about the young women and men on the street?!" Xia Mo questioned loudly.
Liu's mother glared at Xia Mo, then raised her hand and slapped Xia Mo across the face.
Xia Mo didn't need to hide, or even make a move.
"Snapped--"
Brother Xia doesn't believe in the saying "don't hit women," especially women who try to bully his little sister; he'll slap them across the face.
Before Liu's mother could even reach Xia Mo, she was slapped to the side by Xia's older brother and staggered back several steps before she could regain her balance.
“You…you all…” Liu’s mother’s heart heaved violently as she glared at Xia Mo, then at Xia’s older brother.
Brother Xia looked back at Liu's mother expressionlessly.
Mother He shrank to the side, pretending she didn't exist. She told herself that it was just a few nice clothes, and the Xia family must be putting on a show of wealth, putting on a good front but actually being poor inside.
"Is this how you treat your elders?!" After holding it in for a long time, Liu's mother finally managed to utter that one sentence.
"Elder? Who do you think you are? Is your surname Xia or Mu?!" Xia's mother and father were snuggled together when they heard the commotion. Xia's mother put one hand on her hip and appeared in front of Liu's mother in the shape of a teapot.
"Shameless! Touching my eldest son! My son is handsome, but he's still my son. You, an outsider, have the nerve to act like an elder in front of my family. Heh heh," Xia's mother was now twice as confident in fighting. She raised her hand and slapped Liu's mother on the other side of her face.
"If you come any closer to my son and daughter, I'll beat you to death, you shameless woman!"
Liu's mother covered her swollen and red cheeks with her hands and looked at Brother Xia in fear.
"It's the Lantern Festival, and you want to come out and perform for everyone here? We're not going to play along!" Xia Mo mocked.
When Liu's mother finally saw her husband, son, and daughter, she immediately felt more confident.
"Help me stop them, I'm going to tear that woman apart!" Liu's mother said to Liu's father and her son.
Liu's father stood in front of Xia's father.
Liu Da and Liu Er then blocked Xia Dage and Xia Erge's way.
Liu Juan, who was previously engaged to Brother Xia, stood in front of Xia Mo.
Liu's mother thought that with her strength and fighting skills, tearing Xia's mother apart would be a piece of cake!
Of the Liu family members, only Liu Juan noticed that the Xia family remained calm and composed, without any hurry or panic.
Liu Juan glanced nervously at Brother Xia, hoping he could offer some explanation.
When Liu Juan looked at Brother Xia, her eyes were filled with admiration.
Brother Xia and Liu Juan made eye contact, but only for a moment before looking away.
He had long since lost all affection for the woman who was engaged to him but then broke off the engagement.
The young man beside Liu Juan is her current husband, Chen Chu.
Chen Chu sized up Brother Xia's figure, appearance, and clothes, his eyes swirling with jealousy that he himself was unaware of.
When Chen Chu and Brother Xia stood side by side, it was like comparing earth to heaven. Brother Xia was the heaven, making Chen Chu look like mud.
Chen Chu also stopped in front of Brother Xia, only to find that he had to look up to make eye contact with him.
Seeing that her family members had blocked Xia's father and his group, Liu's mother confidently made her move.
With a forced smile, Xia's mother invited Liu's mother closer. When Liu's mother reached out to grab her hair, Xia's mother grabbed Liu's outstretched hand and pulled hard.
Liu's mother's body lurched forward uncontrollably.
Xia's mother reached out her other hand, grabbed Liu's mother's hair (who was short), and pulled hard.
Liu's mother's hand, which was reaching for Xia's mother's hair, was caught. She was stunned for a moment, and in that brief moment, Xia's mother pulled her head.
"what--"
Liu's mother let out a painful howl.
Xia's mother released the hand that was holding Liu's mother's arm, and while still holding Liu's mother's hair with one hand, she used the other hand to slap Liu's mother's face repeatedly, left and right.
"His-"
Those watching the spectacle felt a strange sense of embarrassment at the sight of Liu's mother being beaten.
Liu's mother was so dizzy and disoriented from Xia's mother's slaps that she couldn't refute them.
When Xia's mother had smoked enough, she tossed Liu's mother's hair aside like trash.
Liu's mother was thrown a foot away and fell to the ground, dazed.
The Liu family members who witnessed this scene...
"Xia Kaoshan, aren't you going to do anything about your wife!" After his initial shock, Liu's father roared at Xia's father.
Xia's father clenched his fists so tightly they cracked. He said, "I'm not good at interfering with women's affairs, but I can discipline you."
"What?" Mr. Liu stepped back in fear.
Xia's father had already thrown a punch.
"boom--"
Liu's father was knocked flying.
Father Xia smiled as he looked at his eldest brother and second brother.
Liu Da and Liu Er realized the danger and tried to escape, but it was too late.
"Bang bang—"
Brother Xia and Brother Xia threw punches one after the other, sending Liu Da and Liu Er flying more than ten feet away.
The people around helped to block it, and it hit the onlookers before rolling to the ground.
Even though they were blocked, Liu Da and Liu Er were still groaning and rolling on the ground in pain!
The onlookers hissed.
