Chapter 349: Chapter 337: Hard to Justify by Many Arguments

Nowadays, the transportation in Yushu Village is nothing like it was in the earlier years.

Not only did Lu Aiguo fund the construction of a spacious road, but to facilitate the comings and goings of the villagers, Lu Group also specifically contracted the bus routes from the township and county to Yushu Village, with one bus running in the morning and another in the afternoon each day.

During holidays or summer and winter breaks, when the children return to the village from all over and the place suddenly becomes bustling with people, the number of bus trips would increase accordingly.

Therefore, traveling to and from Yushu Village had become much more convenient, and more importantly, the bus fare was not expensive at all, basically just enough to cover the costs of operation.

The beneficiaries naturally were not limited to the inhabitants of Yushu Village alone; the surrounding communities benefited as well, especially Xiejia Village where the sisters of the Lu Family had married. The design of the bus route provided the utmost convenience for the villagers of these two villages.

This was beyond reproach. Aside from their feelings of envy, the villagers from the neighboring villages all thought it was only natural. Who doesn’t have relatives near and far?

Even though the Lu siblings now had their own private cars and actually didn’t use the bus service, what was wrong with them spending money and effort to favor the villagers with closer relations to their own family?

Throughout the journey, Yang Banmei had a gloomy face and didn’t utter a word, while Niu Shan and Niu Dazhuang scratched their heads, clueless about what to think.

Once they got home and closed the gate to the yard, Niu Dazhuang asked Yang Banmei with a doubtful look, "Mom, what’s going on? If you don’t clarify things, you’ll leave us all in suspense."

"Don’t ask anymore, this is not something for you to worry about. I’ll talk to your dad, and that will be enough."

On the way back, Yang Banmei had cooled down and realized after sobering up that it had been a mistake to lose her temper with Niu Shan at the door of the hospital.

Now, she regretted allowing her son to overhear the hint of what had happened.

If he knew that his father had once been cuckolded, wouldn’t that cause an uproar in the household...

Understanding this made Yang Banmei even more vexed, internally cursing herself for having married a troublemaker into the family.

"Why don’t you tell me what kind of outrageous thing I have done to anger both heaven and man? Stop avoiding our son, let’s talk. I really want to hear you explain it clearly," Niu Shan grew anxious, jumping up and shouting.

He felt increasingly that something was not right; why did it seem like his wife was speaking in riddles? Could it be what he had suspected? Glancing at his son, who was restraining his rage, he instantly knew that his son had probably also misunderstood.

"Keep your voice down! Do you really need me to spell out what you’ve done? Are you not afraid that others will overhear and cause a scene? You may be shameless, but do we all have to suffer disgrace along with you?"

Yang Banmei first nervously ran to the door, peeking out before breathing a sigh of relief and lowering her voice, "Let’s talk inside the house."

The more she acted like this, the darker the clouds on Niu Dazhuang’s face grew, and Niu Shan felt he was on the verge of exploding in anger, "What have I done to be so disgraceful?"

Once inside the house, Yang Banmei angrily whispered at Niu Shan, "Tell me, did you also have an affair with that wretch? Now she’s using that to threaten us, saying that it was because you... led her to give up all self-respect. If these words got out, what would happen then?

Now she demands that we take care of her during her confinement, with eggs three times a day, a chicken every three days; otherwise, she’ll spread these stories around the village. You could have messed around with anyone, why did you have to..."

Before she could finish her words, a loud bang was heard, and Niu Shan was already stumbling backward, toppling a long bench and falling to the ground.

The voice of Yang Banmei came to an abrupt halt as she looked over in shock, only to see her son Niu Dazhuang watching Niu Shan on the ground with rage blazing in his eyes, fists clenched, veins bulging—it was clear that he was the one who had punched Niu Shan.

Niu Shan, clutching his stomach, showed a pained expression on his face as he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Dazhuang... are you crazy, he’s your dad!" Yang Banmei cried out in fear.

"I don’t have such a dad. Did he think about that he’s my dad when he was planning on my wife?"

Niu Dazhuang roared angrily, his fists tightening and then loosening, loosening and then tightening, as if struggling with something... Then, suddenly, he crouched down with his head in his hands and started crying bitterly, "No wonder Qiuyu suddenly changed like that..."

"..."

Niu Shan managed to get up with difficulty, and furiously kicked at Yang Banmei, "I told you not to take every rumor for truth and talk nonsense when you come back. I never did it; even if I thought about it, I never did it. How can I admit to something I didn’t do?"

He was so enraged that he accidentally blurted out the unthinkable notion that he had "thought about it."

Yang Banmei, caught off guard, was kicked several times. She lost control, leaped up, and began to scuffle with him. While fighting, she didn’t forget to suppress her voice and screech, "Never did it? How does she know about the birthmark on your butt if you never did it? What are you doing showing her your ass for no reason?"

Niu Shan was completely stunned, rendered speechless for a long while and forgetting to resist as two scratches appeared on his face.

His dumbfounded look made Yang Banmei believe Chen Qiuyu’s words even more; her slight doubt disappeared, and she sat down on the ground, slapping her leg and wailing, "My fate is so miserable..."

"I really didn’t do it, I also don’t know how she knew about my... Why don’t you believe me?" Niu Shan crouched down too, his face full of bitterness as he held his head.

"...Enough, all of you. Our family has wronged Qiuyu, we’ll just do as she said," Niu Dazhuang said coldly, looking at Niu Shan with hatred for a while before standing up silently.

"Dazhuang... you believe dad, dad really didn’t..." Niu Shan suddenly stood up, his face flushed red, his voice trembling, but to Niu Dazhuang’s eyes, it was nothing but sheer guilt.

He seemed to have regained his composure, turned his head away not looking at Niu Shan, and said indifferently, "Is there any point in saying this now? Hasn’t everything come to this point? Even if I wanted her to stay, she wouldn’t be willing, and I bet even you all are sick to your stomachs, unwilling, right?

"If someone else did this, I could go to their house, fight, and even though I demolished their ancestral graves, they wouldn’t have a leg to stand on. But who would have thought you were my dad? Could I go and destroy my own family’s ancestral graves?"

Niu Dazhuang left the house without looking back.

"I really didn’t do it--"

Niu Shan stood there muttering to himself, then suddenly erupted into violence, kicking and thrashing at the tables and chairs like a rabid dog. He kept repeating neurotically, "I didn’t do it, I didn’t do it... Why don’t you believe me, why don’t you just believe me?"

Seeing him like this, Yang Banmei couldn’t help but swallow her saliva quietly, cautiously inching towards the door step by step.
