Listening to the chatter of the villagers inside and outside the house, the old patriarch picked up the cigarette bag and knocked on the table. Immediately there was a complete silence inside and outside the house, and no one dared to speak anymore.
A glance has been said. Standing beside Zhang Dashan with his head drooping, the old patriarch's eyes swept over Zhang Ergen and landed on Yang Shi. "Mr. Yang, tell me, what's going on?"
"Third uncle, I didn't steal the money from the family. Dashan stole the money. I saw it with my own eyes. He was afraid that I would tell his father, so he wanted to frame me!" Speaking of this, Yang Shi's eyes were red with grievance.
"You keep saying that Dashan stole money, so what evidence do you have? Do you know where he hid the money? Or do you know what he did with the stolen money?" Looking at Yang, the old patriarch asked in a deep voice.
"Yes, second sister-in-law, catching thieves is dirty, and catching traitors is double. You keep saying that my son stole money, but you have to show evidence to the big guy?" Looking at Yang, the village that has been silent has also opened. mouth.
"This, this..." Hearing this, Yang opened his mouth but didn't know what to say! She spent all that money, where did she get the evidence
"I, I don't have evidence. But, Zhang Dashan has no evidence to prove that I stole the money, right?" Speaking of this, Yang looked viciously at Chu Yang who was standing aside.
"Dashan, what do you say?" Turning his head sideways, the old patriarch looked at the child standing beside him.
Hearing the old patriarch's question, Chu Yang bent down and knelt down in front of the old patriarch. "Third Grandpa, my grandpa and grandma died early. Both my uncle and my father were raised by your old Laba. Although I am not your real grandson, you watched me grow up. Even if I have a hundred guts, I wouldn't dare lie to you!"
"Yeah!" Seeing the tears rolling around his eyes, the poor child kneeling on the ground, the old patriarch nodded slightly. He also felt that a thirteen-year-old child did not have the courage to lie in front of him.
"Elders, I, Zhang Dashan, swear to you here. If there is a single sentence of what I just said is a lie, I will be hit by thunder and die!" After finishing speaking, Chu Yang's tears of grievance flowed down his eyes. down.
Looking at Zhang Dashan who was crying so aggrieved, the simple villagers fell silent again. There is a common emotion in my heart, that is: this child is too pitiful!
"Father, I think so. Tomorrow I will go to Lijia Village and ask. Didn't Dashan say that Mrs. Yang stole family money to study for Li Sheng? I will go to Lijia Village and ask the other village and Li What is the situation of Li Sheng’s second uncle, Li Sheng’s parents, can they afford money to study for Li Sheng? Just ask and you will know!” People with a lot of eyes are not easy to fool.
"Okay, since Yang's family and Dashan can't produce evidence for this matter, we can only go to Lijia Village to ask!" Nodding, the old patriarch immediately agreed to his son's proposal.
Hearing this, Yang's face turned pale. "No, you can't, you can't go!"
Seeing Mrs. Yang's appearance of not having three hundred taels of silver here, everyone immediately showed expressions of disdain and disapproval.
"Hey, didn't you say that you were wronged just now? Why, you can't hold back if you really make this move?"
"Huh, what a shame, I stole the money myself, and I still want to put the blame on my adopted son!"
"No, I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen such shameless people!"
"Hey, my mother said a long time ago that the kind of Kefu girls can't marry into the family. It seems that it's really good!"
"That's right, whoever marries this kind of woman is unlucky!"
"Yeah, I didn't expect Zhang Ergen to pick such a daughter-in-law!"
"Who says it's not!"
Hearing the scorn and ridicule from the villagers, Yang bit her lips unconsciously, blushing with embarrassment, wishing she could find a crack in the ground and slip in.
Turning around, Li Ergen looked at Yang sternly. "Is it really you?"
"Master, our child is still young, so you should let Li Sheng study first! He will respect you when he grows up!" Under Zhang Ergen's stare, Yang said awkwardly.
"You, you slut!" Unbearable, Zhang Ergen twitched his mouth. The beating made Yang staggered back a few steps before standing still.
"Second brother!" Stepping over, Zhang Dagen grabbed his younger brother. Looking at Yang who was beaten, and then at his nephew Zhang Dashan kneeling on the ground, Zhang Dagen sighed. "Okay, okay, everything is clear, Dashan, Ergen daughter-in-law, you all go home, it's fine to talk about your own family affairs when you go back!"
Hearing what the eldest brother said, Zhang Ergen looked at his son who was kneeling on the ground and did not move. "Why are you still kneeling? Go home!"
Hearing this, Chu Yang shrank back and rubbed against the old patriarch's side.
"I asked you to get up and go home, isn't it embarrassing enough?" After saying that, Zhang Ergen walked towards Chu Yang angrily.
"No, dad, don't hit me, I was wrong, I shouldn't have told others about my mother stealing money, don't hit me, don't hit me!" Chu Yang said, before Zhang Ergen approached, he directly Climbed to a table of the Eight Immortals beside the old patriarch and lowered it.
"You, you little bastard, come out, get out!" Seeing Chu Yang who had crawled to the bottom of the table, Zhang Ergen became even more angry. He stretched out his hand to pull Chu Yang's arm, but how could Chu Yang let him pull it? He straightened his legs and arms. Shouting while avoiding Zhang Ergen's clutches. "Father, I was wrong, I don't dare anymore. Father, don't hit me, don't hit me, I won't dare again, I won't dare again!"
"You, you bastard, get out, get out!" Looking at Chu Yang who was hiding while crying and begging for mercy, Zhang Ergen was so angry that his entire face turned black. There were bulging blue veins on his forehead. I can't wait to cut off the tongue of this little beast right now.
"No, I won't go out. If I go out, you will definitely beat me. It's like this every time, mother is always right, mother is always right!" At this point, Chu Yang burst into tears.
"You, you little bastard, bastard!" Looking at Chu Yang who was crying more and more vigorously, Zhang Ergen was so angry that he was about to lift the table. Just as a pair of rough hands touched the table, he was directly slammed by the old patriarch's cigarette pouch. Knocked back hard.
"Third Uncle!" Looking at the old patriarch who blocked him, Zhang Ergen called out very depressed.
"Ergen, you are really promising! You came to my house to overturn the table?" At this point, the old patriarch stood up from the chair directly, with an impressive aura, approaching Zhang Ergen who was standing in front of him .
"Third Uncle, no, my nephew didn't intend to offend you. Rather, this little bastard, this rebellious son is too lawless, he..." Pointing at Chu Yang under the table, Zhang's angry fingers kept moving trembling.
"Lawless? Where is the lawlessness? Why didn't I see it? I only saw that you and your daughter-in-law who entered the door bullied your own child, saying that the child stole money, and then beat the child!" Speaking of this, the old patriarch He snorted coldly.
"Brother Ergen, to tell the truth from the bottom of my heart, the children in the family are disobedient. It's not a big deal for us fathers to slap and kick twice, but you can't listen to your wife and treat the children Beat it to death? A tiger’s poison doesn’t eat its children!” Looking at Zhang Ergen, the village head said helplessly.
"Me, when did I beat him to death? He doesn't do a good job on weekdays, and I just said a few words to him. When did I beat him to death?" Zhang Ergen felt very angry after being wronged innocently. He even raised his voice several times.
"Yes, yes, Ergen is not that kind of person, how could he beat the child to death?" Nodding, Zhang Dagen hurried forward to help him speak.
"If you didn't fight to the death, why would Dashan be so afraid? Are you treating all the old and young men here as blind?" Speaking of this, the old patriarch's face was also very gloomy.
"I, I..." Gritting his teeth, Zhang Ergen had a feeling that he couldn't get rid of it even if he jumped into the Yellow River. Especially after seeing all the accusations and resentful gazes, he felt even more annoyed.
"Third Uncle, don't be fooled by that little bastard. I usually say a few words about him when I am in charge of the house. I have never hit him since I entered the door. That Zhang Dashan, he is a little white-eyed wolf. Ours, wearing ours, and running out to say that we are parents, big guys, how can there be such an unfilial child?" At this point, Yang shed two tears of sadness in response to the situation. .
Hearing this, the old patriarch glanced at Yang, then turned to look at Chu Yang who was sobbing on the table. "When Dashan comes out, if you have anything to say, you can just say it. With the support of the third grandpa, what are you afraid of?"
Hearing this, Chu Yang raised his small face in grievance, and looked at the old patriarch with his eyes that were red and swollen from crying. "Third Grandpa, I can't go out. If I go out, they will kill me. They will really kill me. I can't go out, I can't go out!" Hugging his legs, Chu Yang's eyes were full of words. fear.
"You, you are talking nonsense, when did I hit you?" Zhang Ergen growled, pointing at his son who had falsely accused him.
"Woooo, Dad, I was wrong, I was wrong Dad!" Crying and begging for mercy, Chu Yang began to show off his acting skills again.
"What are you shouting for? You two stand over there!" As he spoke, the old patriarch pointed to the door.
Frowning, Zhang Ergen didn't dare to disobey, so he took Yang Shi to the door.
"Okay, Da Shan, come out. If you have anything to say, just talk to Third Grandpa!" Looking at Chu Yang under the table, the old patriarch said again.
Hearing what the old patriarch said, Chu Yang slowly crawled out from under the table. He timidly stood between the old patriarch and the village chief. From time to time, with timid and fearful eyes, he glanced at Zhang Ergen and his wife at the door, and when he touched Zhang Ergen's murderous eyes, he immediately retracted his gaze.
