The Outsider Chapter 35 Gentle and Virtuous Aunt Chen

On the evening of this day, all the residents of Shili Street were in a high mood.

Zhang Kee's grocery store was crowded with people tonight, children came, old ladies and old men and grandfathers came, and even some big girls who had been staying at home for a long time, old men and old ladies who couldn't walk also came.

The five hundred Imperial Forest Army Iron Horse Jin Ge swallowed mountains and rivers and drove straight into the small Shili Street, but was scolded by Zhang Laosan, who didn't wear pants, Zhang Ze's long smile, and Aunt Ying's head-to-head scolding.

How majestic is this for the people of Shilijie who have never seen the world all year round? This is definitely enough for them to blow cowhides for a lifetime, and this will definitely make many villages within a radius of several hundred miles praise Shilijie is awesome...... Just send the light to the ancestors.

Zhang Laosan's status immediately jumped three feet and the tide rose, and he danced all night long, endlessly telling about the many strange things he had seen walking outside over the years.

Zhang Ze stood on his chair, raised his arms and blew how majestic he and Mo Xiaohe had been in the past half a month, and how they had cleaned up the city people in Ximen County who were freshly dressed and angry but did not dare to fight.

This should be put in the usual way, and no one will believe it when it is said...... But now that the royal forest army with such a big scene has been driven away by them, they only dare to camp five miles away from Shili Street and dare not take half a step, and who else is not convinced.

Today, the crowd on Shili Street was indignant, and they had fun until the middle of the night, and they left one by one.

Only Zhang Hu and his wife were depressed, and the couple tossed and turned all night and never fell asleep.

His son, Zhang, came back from Ximen County intact...... But he provoked the most powerful family in Ximen County, and lost his official position in Zhang Hu's Yamen.

Most of her life is virtuous and kind, how can Aunt Chen, who is a husband and a child, withstand such a blow.

Mrs. Chen's maiden home is not in Ximen County, but far away in Yunchang County, she is a child from a poor family, and she has never been to the county to study, but Mrs. Chen's father wrote earlier that he was a scholar, and he was a daughter when he was old, so he raised Mrs. Chen as a son.

Mrs. Chen also took this opportunity to recognize some words, read some books, and barely be able to speak a few truths.

When Aunt Chen lived to be ten years old, her father was gone, and she depended on her mother, and even her mother was gone in a few years...... She is still a big girl, and no one is in charge.

Although the folk customs of Yunchang County are also simple, they are not as simple and fierce as Ximen County, and the villagers are honest and diligent, so on the whole, Yunchang County is much richer than Ximen County, which can only eat, drink, have fun and fight.

At the very least, the road in Yunchang County is not a potholed loess road, but a flat and comfortable official road; the houses are not low-slung mud houses piled up by picking up stones on the side of the road, but are also a few tiled houses with bright and clean windows; and the villagers are not a good people who can only fight bravely and ruthlessly, but are gentle and warm-hearted good people.

In those years, Zhang Hu was already a head catcher, and he happened to be transferred to the town where Mrs. Chen was located in Yunchang County, which was close to Mrs. Chen's house.

Zhang Hu, who was seven or eight years older than Aunt Chen, saw that Aunt Chen, who was still a yellow flower girl at that time, was gentle and elegant, and she was just a big girl, and she didn't have an elder brother or father to call the shots...... Zhang Hu, who has no father or mother for a long time, is so poor that he can't afford cattle, can't afford to build a new house, and hasn't mixed with his daughter-in-law after living for more than 20 years, so he has a bad idea.

Zhang Hu ran to Aunt Chen's house when he had nothing to do in those years, carrying water and chopping firewood, raising pigs and chickens, and doing heavy and dirty work, he helped with it...... He also cheekily lied to Aunt Chen that this was ordered by the adults in the yamen to help, and also lied to Aunt Chen that his family's house was better than that of Mrs. Chen's, and his parents raised a lot of livestock and bought a lot of land, so they were more than rich.

Aunt Chen was a shy girl after all, and no good person treated her well, so when she saw that this tiger was five big and three rough and fast, and she was an official, she believed it...... So Zhang Hu deceived and deceived, and deceived Aunt Chen into the pit, and finally deceived Shili Town, which is a fierce town.

On the day of the wedding, Zhang Hu borrowed a bright house from the east family in Shili Town, a comfortable new bed from the west family, pots and pans from the south family, and a carriage from the north family...... Don't be ashamed to lie to Aunt Chen that his father and mother have relied on the good harvest in the past few years, and went to his sister who married a big businessman in Hanoi, and his sister was busy with business and couldn't come back.

But how can he have a father and mother? How can he have a sister? Zhang Hu is a single person.

The next day, Mrs. Chen watched all the furniture being moved, leaving only four walls that did not belong to her home, looking at the potholes everywhere, the houses were dilapidated and low, and the old men were all naked and picking their feet, and shed several pots of tears.

However, Aunt Chen can be regarded as the child of half of the scholarly family, although she is not as good as everyone's ladies, but she is also a small family of jade gentle and virtuous. If I wanted to replace it with another, I would have already cried, made trouble, and hanged myself.

What can Aunt Chen do? The body was given to Zhang Hu, and Zhang Ze was pregnant in the belly, can she still run?

Aunt Chen, who had read a lot of sage books from her old father and read the biography of the martyr several times, had no choice but to marry a chicken and a dog and a dog.

This silent and steady Zhang Hu, who has few words and is silent, who can see that he has so much bad water in his stomach?

Although Zhang Hu is an official, he is also a wise person who protects himself, and he has always been concerned about so many things in the village...... The people are fierce and the sectarian concept is strong, although Shili Street is afraid of him, but he also looks down on him.

Aunt Chen is not a shrewd woman in the world, but she has a good conscience, is enthusiastic, treats people sincerely, can teach her husband and children well, and do her own business well.

Mrs. Chen has always been the boudoir of Shili Street people, and she is highly respected by the men, women and children of Shili Street...... As long as it is a woman, from old to young, she likes to talk to Aunt Chen about everything.

Through his daughter-in-law, Zhang Hu got a better relationship with his neighbors.

Zhang Hu is an idle person who is content with the status quo, and after finishing the head-catching business, when he returns home, he will raise Erlang's legs, point fingers and ask Mrs. Chen to serve him tea and pour water.

Shili Street is close to Shili Town, it is a good place to do business, and the stupid people who don't want to do anything when they are full of food and drink on Shili Street don't know how to take advantage of this opportunity...... Fortunately, Aunt Chen had read books, had a bit of brains, and had articles in her heart, so she opened a grocery store on Shili Street, and her income was much more than the little dead official food that Zhang Hu had as the leader of the year to go.

With the smart and clever Aunt Chen, the conditions of Zhang Hu's family gradually improved. He built a new big house, bought a carriage, and his life was prosperous.

Aunt Chen has been accustomed to living a poor life since she was a child, and she knows the horror of poor life, so she loves her son like her life, and her husband is like life...... Although you can't do the old antiques, you can still do it, be diligent and capable, and respect your husband.

Aunt Chen does not seek to be rich and noble, and does not seek her son Zhang Zeguang to glorify her ancestors...... But it is enough to be healthy, free from disasters and diseases, and to marry a sensible and intelligent daughter-in-law.

But what is this now?

Don't Zhang Ze, this little cub doesn't listen to Mo Xiaohe's dealings...... Although Aunt Chen also pities Mo Xiaohe, who has no father and no mother, but this Mo Xiaohe's background is unknown, he has a strange sister, and the old shrimp with such a black path still wants to kill him?

Now that Zhang Hu's good identity as a head catcher is gone, Zhang Ze has provoked big people and even officers and soldiers to come. How can you live a stable diet that you have managed to take care of? Who knows what will happen in the future?

Aunt Chen sighed softly, turned around and fell into the arms of Zhang Hu, who had fallen asleep for some time, and never felt sleepy.

It was late at night, people were quiet, and a few winds came through the window, rustling the curtains and blowing into the forest sea. There were a few crows of night crows, owls cooing, and a few she-cats in heat wailing on the roof.

A dog barked in the depths of the alley.

Bang.

Two tones.

Three tones.

Slowly, the barking of dogs resounded in all directions.

It seems that the dogs of the whole village are barking.

Even the big yellow dog in the backyard of Aunt Chen's house barked nervously.

Mrs. Chen's house is a grocery store, people come and go every day, Mrs. Chen's big yellow dog is used to seeing people, and his temperament is like Mrs. Chen, very gentle, he will swing his tail and shake his head when he sees anyone, and rarely bark, but I don't know what madness happened today.

Aunt Chen was timid, her heart chuckled, and her limbs were a little weak.

Could it be that there are some thieves from other villages who are not afraid of death? Or people who walk at night with bad intentions? What's more, there are bandits who burn, kill, and loot again in Daxia, who is singing and dancing?

Shili Street, this year has killed a lot of rats who came to the village to steal chickens and dogs, is it possible that people will die again today?

Aunt Chen pricked up her ears, opened her eyes wide, and waited meticulously outside her window.

I saw a flash of fire outside the window...... Then two wires, three wires, it seems that there are 10,000 torches held in front of the window of Mrs. Chen's house, and the lights are bright for a while.

Aunt Chen's face suddenly turned pale.
