Chapter 1268 Forced Marriage
"Let's get off and walk; carriages can't get in here."
After Fei He finished speaking, he got off the carriage before Jiang Yubai. Jiang Yubai had a wound on his hand and could only support himself with one hand to get down.
Fei He stood beside the carriage, while passersby curiously glanced at them out of the corner of their eyes.
But no one dared to approach.
As soon as someone recognized Jiang Yubai, someone exclaimed in surprise:
"Jiang Dajia? Where have you been all this time? Your mother is almost dying, why are you only just coming back?"
Jiang Yu heard these words when he got off the carriage, and his hand slipped, causing him to fall off the carriage.
Having barely eaten anything for over half a month, Jiang Yubai was dizzy and disoriented from the fall, but dared not delay for even a moment.
He crawled down and grabbed the person who spoke, his eyes red with anxiety: "How is my mother? Tell me!"
The man's patched sleeves were nearly torn by Jiang Yubai. He tried to break free, but Jiang Yubai was too strong.
They could only pull him along while explaining the Jiang Yu Bai family's situation.
“You’ve been gone for so many days. You know your mother’s illness. Your sister is young and beautiful. While you’re away, countless people are thinking about her.”
The village chief's mentally challenged son goes to your house every day. Once, when he was playing around with your sister, he tore her clothes. Your mother was so anxious that she got out of bed and tried to protect your sister. The mentally challenged son pushed her, and she hit her head on the millstone. She almost died. The village chief paid for someone to take your mother to the county clinic for treatment.
Your family isn't rich, and your sister has already gotten married. If you go back now, you can still make it to the wedding.
Jiang Yubai nearly went crazy when she heard this. She hurriedly let go of the person and ran home.
Having witnessed all kinds of suffering in this world, Fei He led his people to follow.
As they traversed the rugged road, Feihe could hear the sounds of playing instruments and singing from afar.
As you get closer, all you see is festive red.
Amidst the festive atmosphere, Jiang Yubai resembled a madman on the verge of collapse, attempting to break through the wedding procession and snatch his bride from the bridal sedan chair.
He was kicked away by the wedding party.
"Where did this madman come from? Get out of here right now! You've ruined my son's wedding day, I'll kill you!"
Fei He and his men stood on a nearby hillside, watching Jiang Yubai being bullied as if he were a rag doll.
"Sir, aren't we going to help?"
Fei He wasn't lying; Jiang Yubai wasn't a simple-minded fool.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have crashed into His Majesty's carriage; he would have asked for help himself when needed.
Even if you offer him help, he might not appreciate it.
Young people have such conflicted thoughts.
Fei He watched from the hillside; the people below were too busy bullying Jiang Yubai to notice them.
Jiang Yubai was kicked around like trash, his body was covered in injuries, and there was a lot of blood on the ground.
"Big brother!"
When Jiang Yubai was in a daze, he heard his sister's voice.
As he curled up on the ground, clutching his head and struggling to protect himself, he saw through the crowd of people bullying him that his younger sister was being forced back into the bridal sedan chair by the matchmaker.
That idiot was still bullying his sister, his drool was almost dripping onto the ground.
Jiang Yubai suddenly found the strength from somewhere, grabbed someone's leg, and bit down.
The person who was bitten cried out in pain, and Jiang Yubai took the opportunity to stand up while holding onto his leg.
He pushed the man's leg and sent him crashing into a group of people.
The scene became chaotic. Jiang Yubai pushed the sedan chair all the way to it, and the person finally lost control and fell to the ground.
Jiang Yubai pulled the matchmaker away and slapped her across her painted face.
When I tried to pull the girl out, I was kicked in the back.
She stumbled and fell onto the threshold of the bridal sedan chair, and a mouthful of blood immediately welled up in her mouth.
But when he looked up and saw his sister's tear-streaked face, he swallowed the blood back down.
He forced a smile at his sister: "I'm fine, don't be afraid, I'll definitely take you home."
After saying this, Jiang Yubai dodged the second kick, pressed the foot against the sedan chair pole, and roared as he broke the foot off.
He shielded his younger sister tightly behind him, took a piece of wood from the sedan chair pole, and held it in his hand, hitting anyone who came near.
For a moment, everyone around him was stunned by his blood-soaked appearance.
No one dared to approach him.
"Damn it, I've been in Jiangjia Village for so many years, do you think I'd let a kid who hasn't even grown a beard bully me?"
Enraged, the village chief shoved someone forward and shouted angrily at everyone, "Whoever holds Jiang Yubai down today, I'll give him half a pig for Chinese New Year!"
Just moments ago, they were pushing and shoving those who were unwilling to come forward, but now they're all motivated by this half-portion of pork.
The way everyone looked at Jiang Yubai wasn't like they were looking at a person, but rather like they were looking at a butchered half of a pig.
One or two people, eager to fight, rushed forward, followed by groups of people with ferocious smiles on their faces.
Fei He stood on the hillside, able to clearly see the expressions on everyone's faces below.
Having stayed in a place like the capital for so long, Qiyang, which is still part of Jiangnan, is in such a state. Those people died too easily.
"Please save my sister!"
Fei He looked at Jiang Yubai, who was surrounded by the crowd, and was waiting for him to say this.
If they were taken one by one, Jiang Yubai might have been able to hold on for a while longer, but after being trapped in the forest for so long, he hadn't eaten a single grain of rice in over half a month.
He fought against these people with sheer willpower, but he was outnumbered.
Before Jiang Yu could finish speaking, Fei He's bodyguards, armed with swords and knives, had already rushed to his side.
The group of people who were so menacing just moments ago had almost all their hands and legs broken before they could even react.
But they were still ordinary people, and no matter how inhuman these people were, the secret guards didn't take their lives.
However, the hilts of the swords broke the legs of these people.
The group of people who had just surrounded Jiang Yubai were now lying on the ground, their bodies deformed and limp. Their faces, which had been grinning maliciously, were now filled with pain.
Who are you?
The village chief of Jiangjia Village retreated in fear while pretending to be calm as he questioned the village.
If your hands don't tremble and your legs don't shake, you might actually look somewhat presentable.
It was at this moment that Fei He leaped down from the hillside.
The summer morning breeze carried the smell of gunpowder from firecrackers, causing his dark robes to flutter. His imposing presence once he stood still made even the village chief, a shrewd man who had lived half his life, feel his legs go weak.
Before he could even speak, the black-clad guards had already forced him to kneel down by pressing his shoulders.
"Jiangjia Village forces marriages and disregards human life. Have you all had enough of living?"
