Hearing fourth aunt's words, Chu Yang slowly stopped crying. He looked at a group of uncles, aunts and two aunts who cared about him. "Elders, my stepmother wronged me for stealing money from the family. Not only did she beat me up, but she also said she was going to find my father and drive me out of the house. Elders, I really have no way out. It's over, there's no way out!" After speaking, Chu Yang began to cry again.
Hearing the child's cry, the faces of the seven people were all very ugly.
"This Yang family is too much, isn't it? Even if Dashan was not born by her, it is also Ergen's seed? How can you say that the child stole money without evidence?" Speaking of this, the fat lady looked angry , the fat face was also flushed with anger.
"That's right, you beat the child for no reason, look, Dashan's face is swollen!" Saying that, Sanniang glanced at Chu Yang's face, her eyes blushed.
"Oh, this motherless child is pitiful!" Seeing Chu Yang who was crying so aggrieved, Aunt Six felt sympathetic.
"Dashan, why did she falsely accuse you of stealing money, Mrs. Yang?" Looking at Chu Yang, a pair - Mrs. Jia who was sitting by the side asked.
"Because she secretly took all the money from the family and used it for her eldest son Li Sheng to study in the city. In the past two years, my father always said that the money in the family was wrong. She wanted me to be a scapegoat to help her take the blame .I don’t even know where our family’s money is, how could I steal it? Besides, if I really stole the money, I would have run away with the money, how could she catch me?” said At this point, Chu Yang was even more wronged.
"Hmph, this Yang family is really shameless, let's go to my aunt's house and find your fourth uncle and your third grandpa!" After speaking, the fourth aunt stood up. A few people watching the excitement also stood up.
"Thank you, auntie!" Chu Yang thanked her again and again, then stood up and followed a group of people to the village chief's house.
———————
When Mrs. Yang took her children back from her own land and retrieved her man Zhang Ergen, just after entering the village, a villager informed them to go to the village chief's house.
When the husband and wife brought their three children to the village chief's house. I saw villagers from Taohua Village everywhere inside and outside the village chief's house, in the yard, in front of the gate, on the low walls of the east and west courtyards, and on the low barns. It was extremely lively!
I saw Zhang Ergen's family coming over. Everyone started whispering immediately.
"Master, what's the matter? Could something have happened?" Looking at the villagers who were pointing at him with eyes full of contempt and sarcasm, Yang felt a little flustered and said uncomfortably. He leaned against his man.
"Look at this, maybe something happened in the village, let's go in and have a look!" As he said, Zhang Ergen walked into the courtyard of the village chief's house with his wife and children.
I saw the Lord coming. The villagers standing in the yard consciously gave way to them, allowing them to enter the house smoothly. Walking into the outer room, seeing that there were more than 20 people standing in the kitchen of the outer room alone, including men, women, old and young, all staring at him, Zhang Ergen felt his heart pounding.
Go into the living room of the village chief's house. There were also crowds of people here, the first floor to the left was full of villagers from Taohua Village, seeing Zhang Ergen and his family walking in, the villagers consciously stepped aside. Zhang Ergen's family came inside. I saw the old patriarch sitting upright, the village chief sitting next to the patriarch, and his own son—Zhang Dashan.
"Third uncle, the village head, you are looking for me!" Walking over, Zhang Ergen bowed his head to greet the old patriarch and the village head.
"Third Uncle, the village head!" Lowering her head, Mrs. Zhang also hastily greeted. The villagers in Taoyuan Village are all surnamed Zhang, so the village head is generally held by the patriarch, and when the third uncle got old, he gave up the position of village head to his fourth son, Zhang Guangmao. Therefore, the patriarch was still the third uncle, and the village head became the twenty-seven-year-old Zhang Guangmao.
"Ergen, what's the matter with your house being so messy and smoky?" Looking at Zhang Ergen, a man in his fifties, with gray hair and gray beard, but a pair of eyes glowing, obviously not old at all, a little The old patriarch, who was not confused, spoke first.
"Third uncle, you, what are you talking about?" Glancing at the old patriarch, then at the old people standing around the room, and the women sitting on the window sill waiting to watch the excitement, Zhang Ergen Deliberately playing haha with the old patriarch.
"You don't know what I said? Don't you? Didn't she tell you that Dashan stole money at home?" The ancestor pointed at Yang with the cigarette bag in his hand.
"This, this..." Hearing the words of the old patriarch, Zhang Ergen's expression turned ugly. He originally wanted to go home and settle this matter privately, but he didn't expect to be moved to the table by the patriarch. In front of the villagers in the whole village, he felt very ashamed and ashamed.
"Yes, it's my family's misfortune that I gave birth to a rebellious son like Zhang Dashan. If he doesn't want to learn from others, he wants to steal money from the family, which makes the house restless!" At this point, Zhang Ergen's eyes seemed to be poisoned. He looked at Zhang Dashan, the son standing beside the patriarch. He has lived in Taoyuan Village for 29 years, and he has never been as embarrassed as he is today!
Hearing his words, the old patriarch turned his head to look at Chu Yang who was standing beside him. "Dashan, say what you said to me and your fourth uncle just now, in front of the big guy, in front of your father, and say it again!"
"Yes, yes!" Nodding, Chu Yang raised his eyelids and took a sneak peek. Zhang Ergen, who had a bad expression on his face, approached the old patriarch again in fear.
"Don't be afraid, baby, in front of the third grandpa, no one can turn the sky!" Speaking of this, the old patriarch squinted his eyes, and his eyes glanced coldly at Zhang Ergen and his wife.
"En, um!" Nodding his head, Chu Yang clenched his little fists. He bravely looked at his father Zhang Ergen. "Father, I didn't steal the money from the family. I didn't steal the money. Yes, yes..." At this point, Chu Yang carefully glanced at Yang.
"You unfilial son, you still dare to quibble, I saw with my own eyes..."
"Shut up!" The old patriarch knocked on the table with a cigarette bag, and the old patriarch yelled, which made Yang shiver in fright, and dared not speak any more.
Lifting his face, the old patriarch's sharp eyes fell on Yang Shi. "Mr. Yang, you have also drank water from two wells. Why, didn't your father and mother teach you the three obediences and four virtues? Didn't they teach you that women can't interrupt when men are talking?"
"I, I..." Looking at the old patriarch, Yang looked depressed.
"Stand aside, speak again when you are told to speak, and shut your mouth tightly when you are not allowed to speak. I am in my twenties, and I don't know any rules!" Speaking of this, the old patriarch His eyes are more attractive.
"Yes, yes!" Responding, Yang stood behind her man, not daring to speak out.
"Da Shan, keep talking!" Turning his head to the side, the old patriarch glanced at Chu Yang beside him, motioning for him to continue.
"Yes, Third Grandpa!" Nodding, Chu Yang brewed his emotions, and then raised his head, his immature face was full of grievances and pity, which made everyone standing aside watching the excitement show The color of sympathy.
"The uncles, aunts, uncles, and aunts who came to the third grandpa's house today, everyone knows that my mother died when I was seven years old. When I was nine years old, my father married my stepmother and came in. The stepmother brought brother Li Sheng. Since that year, I have no new clothes to wear every New Year’s Eve. I have been working with my father since I was nine years old. Because of my weak strength, I can’t work as fast as my father. I am often scolded by my father and beaten by my stepmother. Hit me when I am happy. No matter if I make a mistake or not, she will beat me. After the housework is done, I will go home to wash clothes and cook, and take my brother and sister. Once, I was cooking, and my sister ran over Playing, I didn’t stand firm and fell down. My stepmother said that I pushed my sister. She beat me severely with a wooden stick. From the age of nine to the age of thirteen, in four years, I can’t count How many times did my stepmother beat me? In order for her son Li Sheng to study in the city, the stepmother told my father that Li Sheng’s grandparents would send their children to study in the city, but Li Sheng’s grandfather was dead. Li Sheng's grandma was sick in bed and needed to be supported by Li Sheng's second uncle. The Li family had no money for Li Sheng's education. So, the stepmother stole the money from the family to support Li Sheng's education. One thing, so, my stepmother blamed me for stealing money. He was afraid that I would tell my father, so he wanted to blame me!" At the end, Chu Yang's eyes were filled with tears. Turning, a thirteen-year-old child who has no mother and has suffered all kinds of grievances and humiliation is vividly interpreted.
After hearing Chu Yang's words, everyone was silent for a while. Looking at Chu Yang again, his eyes were full of sympathy.
"Oh, it's true that if you have a stepmother, you have a stepfather!"
"Yes, yes, this motherless child is pitiful. He works every day and is beaten by his stepmother!"
"Who says it's not! Let's live a good life, otherwise, our dogs and your donkeys will be bullied by vicious women outside!"
"That's right. For my son, I have to live well!"
"My lady, I'm not a heartless person. If anyone dares to beat my son, I won't spare her!" As he spoke, a man stretched out his hand to take the child who was less than two years old in the arms of the young woman who spoke before. .
"Hmph, that's a nice word!" She gave her man a sideways glance, and the young woman glared at her man coquettishly.
Hearing the cynicism from the villagers, Zhang Ergen's expression became even uglier. He felt that he had lost all his face at this moment after living in Taohua Village for 29 years. He felt that the eyes of all men, women and children looking at him were full of contempt, contempt and hostility, as if to say, look, this is Zhang Ergen, this is a useless man who can't even manage his own wife and son.
For a moment, Zhang Ergen's old face turned red, and he felt that after today, he would definitely become the laughing stock of all the villagers in Taohua Village!
