Portable Space: The Peasant Princess

Chapter 342 Worse than mud

 When Gu Panxia returned to Zhoujiacun, he was riding in a carriage.

 Because she was rushing all the way, she took a nap in the car.

As soon as the carriage drove into Zhoujia Village, there was a lot of hustle and bustle coming from outside.

She frowned slightly, "Brother Xia, what happened outside?"

“Girl, something seems to have happened.”

Xia Jiu is also one of Lu Yuan's secret guards, and is usually responsible for acting as a coachman for Gu Panxia.

 “I’ll beat you to death, you stinky bitch, I’ll let you run, let you run.”

A woman's cry and a man's curse came from outside the car. Gu Panxia's eyes darkened. She opened the curtain and saw a group of people gathered in front of her. One man was holding a stick to greet the woman on the ground. The others People either gloat, stop, pity, or curse.

 “Girl, let me go and have a look.”

Xia Jiu jumped off the carriage, stepped forward in three steps and then grabbed the man's stick.

"Who are you? If you dare to interfere with my business, just stay alone, or I will beat you up too!"

Xia Jiu's eyes turned cold, and he pushed the man's arm back, causing the man to scream in pain.

 “Ouch, ouch, let go, let go!”

Xia Jiu threw his arm away and snorted coldly: "What's wrong with a man beating a helpless woman?"

The man covered his arm with one hand and said angrily: "This **** has no shame and wants to run away with another man behind my back. She is already my wife, and she still dares to run away with someone else. I deserve to beat her to death!"

Xia Jiu frowned. He looked at the trembling and sobbing woman on the ground, his eyes were calm.

"I say Zhou Daren, you are not ashamed to speak. You spend your whole day eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. You do nothing. You even beat people when you come back. If you leave me here, I don't want to live with you." There was a woman. He couldn't stand it anymore, so he said.

"It's just that this little brother doesn't know something. It's not that Xiaohua wants to escape. It's Zhou Daren who beat her when he came back drunk. She was covered with injuries from the beating. A few days ago, she was beaten so hard that her legs were lame and she lay down for a full hour. How many months will it take?”

Seeing that everyone was talking about him, Zhou Daren suddenly cursed angrily: "What's wrong with me beating her? She is my daughter-in-law. I can hit her whenever I want. What does it have to do with you?"

When Gu Panxia in the car heard this, she felt a surge of anger spreading in her chest. She hated men who beat women the most in her life. What's more, this man beat his own wife, and he was so confident. If this was the case in modern times, he would have done it long ago. There's a lawsuit.

 She opened the curtain, got out of the carriage, and walked toward the crowd step by step.

Perhaps everyone's attention was on Zhou Daren beating his wife, and no one noticed a luxurious carriage parked not far away.

At this time, seeing Gu Panxia approaching, someone noticed the existence of the carriage.

“Dear me, have you seen that girl is so handsome? She looks like a fairy.”

“Isn’t that carriage the one that often brings the Zhou family back? What is the relationship between this girl and the Zhou family?”

Some people admired, some speculated, but Gu Panxia didn't hear anything, and walked straight to the crowd to stop.

Xia Jiu retreated slightly, lowered his head and said, "Girl!"

Gu Panxia nodded. She looked coldly at Zhou Daren who was looking at her with a look of disgust. A trace of disgust flashed in her eyes. She bent down and helped up the woman who was beaten with a bruised nose and face.

 “Are you okay?”

The woman lowered her head and choked with sobs: "Thank you, girl, I'm fine!"

Gu Panxia looked at the bruises on her arms and couldn't help but frown. Women of this era were really miserable. They couldn't compare with her in terms of strength, let alone status. They were even worse than the mud on the soles of their feet.
