As long as there are neighbors, as long as your life is connected with a second person, it is impossible to be free from contradictions.
Old Zhou's family was harmonious enough, but Xiaoqian would sometimes hate his sister-in-law, Zhou Zhoulang often left the work to his brothers, and the older brothers occasionally bullied the younger ones.
Don't talk about quarrels, the brothers have all fought.
As for Qili Village, after a year, the villagers had a lot of quarrels over various things. The Qian family is a Buddha enough. The year before last, he stayed at Zhou Dalu's house and scolded him for half an hour because of Man Bao. , and went to the village chief.
And Dali Village is a big village.
There are more than 130 households in this village, which is more than double that of Qili Village.
There are more people, and of course there are more disputes.
Moreover, unlike Qili Village, which mainly has Zhou surnames, the surnames in Dali Village are very mixed. There are eight or nine surnames, and three or four of them are relatively strong.
If the surnames are different, there will be more contradictions.
The two brothers of the Jia family mentioned by Zhou Zhoulang are also well-known in Dali Village.
Because there is a big market in Dali Village, there are butcher shops and grocery stores, and there are many small businesses in it.
There is a market day every two days. Even if everyone is used to bartering and cannot directly enter the copper coins, the exchanged things can be brought to the county town to make a fortune.
And compared to other things, the food and cloth used for exchange have always been hard currency, even in some places in the county town, these two things will be exchanged for things.
Therefore, the life of the villagers in Dali Village is generally better than that of other villages.
The two brothers of the Jia family started burning charcoal seven or eight years ago. I don't know who they learned from. When they came back, they dug two kilns in the open space next to the vegetable garden and started burning charcoal.
They tried all kinds of wood, and finally found that pine wood was easier to burn, and people in the city liked it more, so they specifically aimed at pine wood for chopping.
In addition to cutting from their own mountains, they also cut down other people's mountains.
If the firewood is collected and burned at home, of course there will be no problem for each family, but it is not very happy to chop it back to burn charcoal and then sell it.
And there are rules for cutting down trees. If you cut down too much at one time, you have to replant them for others. Otherwise, if you cut down like this, will there still be trees on the mountain in a few years
Not to mention that the owner of the mountain does not agree, the head of the village and the officials of the county cannot agree either.
Therefore, the owners of the several mountains that the Jia brothers took special care of had a quarrel seven or eight years ago. It is also because of this that the Jia brothers cut down the pine trees in their own mountains almost, and only then did they set their sights on the mountains.
Zhongshan is a little far from Qili Village, and not close to Dali Village. It belongs to the junction of the two villages, and is even closer to Qili Village.
The pine wood on it is the largest and most complete among the nearby mountains.
So back then, the two brothers of the Jia family took people up to cut wood secretly, and they made a fuss after being bumped into by Zhou Dalu.
In the end, without knowing what to say, the chief of Dali Village took back the original land allocated by the two brothers of the Jia family, and redistributed the mountains to the Jia family, and then they allocated 40 acres of mountain land to Qili Village from their share. , this matter is over.
This incident was a big one back then, because Qili Village was poor and small, and the village head took the village's young men with hoes to negotiate with the head of Dali Village and the Jia brothers, and the two villages almost fought.
Back then, Zhou Zhoulang was the same age as the current Saturday Lang. Although he didn't have to go, he still followed behind to join in the fun.
So he knew too well how unpopular Jia's family was in Dali Village.
At this time, he was trying his best to provoke them. In order to publicize their evil deeds, Zhou Zhoulang even lifted up his clothes without any shame, and showed everyone his lower back.
At this time, it had been a while since he fell, and it was the time when all the marks appeared. His lower back was bruised and swollen, and some places were still purple, which looked very serious at first glance.
And the flesh next to him was white and tender. A group of aunts and daughters-in-law watched intently, feeling distressed, and pointed hard at the part of him that was not exposed.
Fang Shi was talking to her mother, when she saw this, she took two steps forward and tore off her clothes, took the opportunity to pinch him, but said concerned: "It's cold at night, what if I catch a cold? Put the clothes away quickly. "
The aunts withdrew their gazes regretfully, Zhou Zhoulang smiled and didn't think there was anything wrong. When the weather is hot, it is common for them to jump into the river to take a bath at this time.
It's just that he's married now, so he doesn't act with the single youths in the village anymore.
Everyone has seen the injuries on Zhou Lang's body, and the crusade against the two brothers of the Jia family has reached its climax. One is that many of them have conflicts with the Jia family, and the other is, who made Zhou Lang look good
Fang's mother also thought that her son-in-law was good-looking, so she was a little concerned about the fact that her son-in-law was "spotted", so when they finished talking, she invited all the people who came to visit.
Of course, she didn't say it outright, but asked her youngest daughter to take Zhou Zhoulang and Man Bao to clean up the room for the night.
After hearing this, everyone saw the sky that had completely darkened, and they all said goodbye and went home. It was indeed time to go to bed at this time.
But they just got such a gossip, and they felt that they were not sleepy, so they decided to continue talking in another place.
The Fang family's conditions are good. The most important thing is that Fang's brother-in-law has no children yet, so the rooms of the Fang sisters are empty. As long as they return to their parents' home, they will have a place to live.
The Fang family has only been married for two months, and their feelings for the family have not changed much, and they still regard their mother's family as their own, so they go into the kitchen to boil hot water for Zhou Zhoulang and Man Bao to wash.
Fang's mother slipped into the kitchen and whispered to her, mainly asking how she was doing at Lao Zhou's house.
Mother Fang also saw the little girl's actions just now, and guessed that she would not be doing too badly, otherwise she would not be able to reach out and grab Zhou Zhoulang, but she still had to talk about her, "If you want to teach him a lesson, you have to give him a lesson." Go back to the house, or let outsiders see it and embarrass him? It's not good for your mother-in-law to see it."
Fang blushed slightly, and said, "I know mother."
Fang's mother sighed in satisfaction, "This marriage is really the right choice. It's not bad to marry in Qili Village. It's close. Look, the family didn't pick you up. You can go back to your mother's house three times, unlike you. Sister, I go back once or twice a year, and leave after a while."
"Mom, you dislike me for always coming back."
"Nonsense, why do I dislike you? I wish you would come back every now and then, as long as you are not chased back by your in-laws or ran back after a fight." Fang's mother is still very comfortable when her daughter returns home, and the old Zhou's family does too. Well, every time the child goes home, he will not go home empty-handed, even if he does not bring some tofu, he will still carry two catties of beans.
For example, today, they came here with beans.
"However, I think Shiro was seriously injured just now. What did the old doctor say, is it really all right?"
