The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family
Chapter 838 - 180: Ignorant_2

Chapter 838: Chapter 180: Ignorant_2

Things seemed well planned, but the moment he entered the house, a teacup came flying at him.

Fang Li was unprepared when the teacup smashed into his forehead with a thud, the pain causing him to see stars. He quickly reached up to cover it, only to feel a sticky wetness as blood began to pour down over his eyes.

"Get out! You damned scourge!" Old Scholar Fang couldn’t contain his fury as he pointed and cursed. He’d just heard about Fang Li driving out, probably to find Qinqin and stir up trouble, and beating Lady Yu, which only deepened Old Scholar Fang’s disappointment in him. Seeing Fang Li saunter back now, he acted on impulse.

Grandma Fang was also angry at his lack of achievement, but seeing him bleeding all of a sudden, she felt a pang of distress, "Eldest... You... you should quickly apologize to your father!"

Seeing Lady Yu at home, Fang Li blamed her for tattling to their parents, which was why his father hit him the moment he entered. Ignoring the pain in his head, he charged at her, eyes bulging with fury, "You wench! You dare to tattle and make things worse, I’ll kill you today!" He threw himself at her, grabbing Lady Yu by the hair, and slapped her across the face and ears.

Lady Yu was incredulous that he was still going mad and, in her grievance and anger, reached out to grab him.

"Stop hitting her! Stop! Eldest brother, please stop!" Grandma Fang saw what was happening and hurried over to pull him away.

Old Scholar Fang was so enraged his chest heaved and his ribs ached, "You beast! Go on then, hit her! Hit her if you dare! Our Fang family has no place for a scourge like you!"

Lady Ruan quickly called for Fang Fu, and it took several people to separate the frenzied Fang Li.

"Brother! Sister-in-law works so hard for this family, and she’s a woman; how can you lay a hand on her!" Fang Fu, pulling him away, couldn’t help but chide him.

With his teeth gritted in pain and consumed by resentment, Fang Li saw that everyone sided with Lady Yu and not a single person stood with him, pushing Fang Fu away in fury, "I’m hitting her? I should divorce her!"

"You brute, if you dare, then I will no longer consider you my son!" Old Scholar Fang shook with anger.

Holding his wounded head, Fang Li turned and left, "Then let that bitch just wait and see!"

"Brother! Where are you going? You have a wound on your head!" Fang Fu hurried after him.

Fang Li yanked the reins of a donkey, mounted it, and galloped out of the village.

Lady Yu, covered in blood, felt her face burning from the slaps and her ears ringing. Nearby, Grandma Fang’s words seemed to be coming from a distant place, like the toll of a bell.

Seeing her gripping her ears in confusion, blood on her face, and Fang Li bleeding as he left, Grandma Fang cried in frustration, "Good days, good life, but you have to cause a scene!"

Fang Liuyang stood by with teary red eyes, looking lost.

Lady Ruan frowned, "Sister-in-law! Did you get hurt somewhere?" She was pregnant and had been careful not to get pushed around during the scuffle.

"Er Lang! Go call the doctor!" Old Scholar Fang ordered.

Only then did Fang Liuming wipe away his tears and rushed out to fetch the doctor.

After Lady Yu cleaned herself up, she didn’t want the doctor to see her, her eyes red, "It’s just a superficial wound, nothing serious. Let the doctor go back!" Her face was marked with bruises. Living such a good life, respected in the village, and yet to fight was already a cause for shame. To have the doctor come over would be even more embarrassing!

Insisting that she was fine, she sent the doctor away again.

Fang Fu hadn’t caught up with Fang Li and came back looking helpless, "Eldest brother rode off on a donkey; I couldn’t catch him. He doesn’t have any money on him; he’ll probably see the doctor himself."

Old Scholar Fang was so angry his face turned ashen as he sat by the door fuming.

Fang Li sought out the doctor to stop the bleeding on his head, but his anger hadn’t subsided. Every thought of Lady Yu made his teeth clench in hatred. That woman! She dared to scratch his face, bringing him shame even to the neighboring villages.

Seething, Fang Li didn’t want to go home. Realizing he had no money on him, he roamed outside, unwilling to return.

Fang Zhi was out inspecting the fields when he encountered him, "Oh my! Brother Fang, what happened to your head?"

Fang Li wore a scowl and had no desire to engage with him. He looked down on Fang Zhi for being a man who lived off his wife.

Seeing him unresponsive, Fang Zhi approached with concern, "You look really pale, Brother Fang. That must be from losing too much blood! And you’re on a donkey; just be careful you don’t faint."

With that said, Fang Li felt a bit dizzy and his head throbbed, fueling his annoyance.

Fang Zhi kept at his side, showering him with flattering, concerned words.
