Chapter 63: The Great Opening
Fortunately, Xie Yujiao didn't have a knife in her hand at this time, otherwise she really couldn't guarantee that she could control it and not cut people. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Out of sight is pure, she simply went to the courtyard to listen to what the clan elder judged on this matter.
Fu Tang was carried into the courtyard, and the lively people also swarmed in, and the small courtyard was planted with so many herbs.
Some unconscious people stepped on the herb garden, and the poor medicinal seedlings, several of which were buried under the soles of people's feet.
Originally, the old man Qu was so troubled by the rich Tang clan for a long time, and the anger was very big, but now when he looks at it like this, the anger can't be suppressed, and finally after another medicine seedling suffers, he yells fiercely, "Whoever steps on the medicine seedling will get out!" ”
Laughing and watching the lively crowd, they were suddenly quieted down by this roar.
Old Lady Li looked at the trampled seedlings in the yard, frowned slightly, and asked Old Man Qu, "What are you planting in this yard?" There's no need to waste this yard. “
Old man Qu can ignore anyone, but he can't ignore the old lady of the Li family, and wants to help those trampled on the medicinal seedlings, but he also knows that now is not the time, so he has to explain to the clan elder in pain, "These are the herbal seedlings that were finally found from the mountains,"
"Ridiculous, isn't it good to plant some vegetables in this large yard, you old and young people in the province even have to spend money to buy a green vegetable, the money is so easy to earn?" Old Lady Li, supported by the young man, sat on a stone bench covered with straw mats.
The Qu family didn't have a few stools, so after Zhang Dequan was led into the courtyard by the rich Erya, the village chief, the clan elder, the old lady Zhang, the old man Qu and the sick Fu Shen sat around the stone table.
Old Man Qu didn't explain much, only said that his family didn't know how to take care of the land, couldn't grow vegetables, and saw that the herbs were good to survive, so he tried to plant them, and it didn't cost seeds anyway.
Old lady Li still disagreed, but she didn't say anything that was not allowed to be planted.
The others were still curious about what was grown in this yard just now, and they didn't want vegetables to look like food.
After listening to what Old Man Qu said, I realized that this was a herb. This is the first time they have heard of planting herbs in their village, and everyone is curious about these dry and unfamous dead branches and leaves.
Xie Yujiao also stood behind her grandfather, listening angrily to them identify these various herbs, her stinky little face, and her usual smile was gone.
The patriarch spoke first: "Did you send someone to ask for a doctor?" Don't tell me I haven't done anything for half a day, and I haven't even sent a doctor to ask for it."
The village chief thought that he couldn't blame me for this, and defended: "Fu Tang's family has been clamoring for her medical expenses, and refuses to let people carry her back, so he didn't have time to send someone to ask for a doctor. ”
"Ridiculous, since the person is already injured, it is important to ask a doctor first." The patriarch blew his beard and glared at the village chief.
The village chief was about to agree to appoint someone to invite Dr. Liu, when he heard the Fu Tang clan in the house hurriedly shouting, "Daddy, child."
Fu Shen walked into the house with a cane for a long time, looked at his wife on the kang, and said helplessly, "What's the matter?" The village chief was about to call for Dr. Liu. ”
"What Doctor Liu, please, please! Please come and see it! Fu Tang lay on the soft mattress, hugged the soft cotton quilt, and shouted.
"Why? Aren't you hurt? ”
"It's stupid, what matters now is to let the Qu family compensate us for the silver, with the silver, I will go home and lie down and raise it slowly, why spend that money?" Fu Tang looked like she hated iron but not steel, if it weren't for the people in the house watching the excitement, she would have jumped up and patted this man's rotten wood head. If she is really sick and stupid, I don't know if she wants to take the opportunity to ask for more silver.
"But,......" Fu Shen was very embarrassed, he was not as thick-skinned as her daughter-in-law, which made him open his mouth, and he also thought that it was important to treat the injury first.
He didn't expect that her daughter-in-law was originally planning blackmail, and the lion opened her mouth.
"It's nothing, it's going to cost medical expenses, twenty taels, not a single child!"
"The clan elder and the uncle of the Zhang family are here, isn't twenty taels too much?" Fu Shen wanted to discuss with his daughter-in-law to see if he could have a little bit, an old man in the family lived by hunting, where is the money, and he bought land and built a house if he had money, and raised an extra mouth, it would be too much to say that he would have to open his mouth for twenty taels.
Fu Tang didn't care about those, he put all the dirt on the clean bedding on the kang, and covered the quilt on his face, and said intoxicatedly, "I bit twenty taels to death, and I said that my leg was broken, my waist was broken, and there was no labor in the family in the future, and the family of four would starve to death." Twenty taels is still less. If you hear it or not, no one is missing. ”
"I'll try."
"What to try, you must let the Qu family take twenty taels, otherwise our family will rely on his family, see if he can rely on me?"
Fu Shen came out with a sad face, facing the people in the courtyard, he really didn't know how to speak.
Mrs. Li really couldn't get used to seeing Fu Shen's appearance, so she said loudly angrily: "What kind of moth is your mother-in-law making trouble again?" “
Fu Shen sat down at the stone table step by step, embarrassed to speak.
Old lady Li looked at him like this and picked up the crutches in his hand and wanted to hit him, but fortunately he reacted in time, this person looked weak and couldn't stand his crutches.
The old lady of the Zhang family opened her mouth and asked, "What's wrong?" What did your daughter-in-law say? ”
No matter how embarrassed Fu Shen was, she had to carry out her wife's orders, and she said her request head-on.
Fu Shen couldn't raise his head in shame after speaking.
The other people watching the excitement didn't hear what he said, but the people around the stone table heard it clearly.
Suddenly, everyone's faces had different expressions.
Old Mrs. Li was angry and angry, and she couldn't get out of her chest in one breath, and she couldn't get down.
Old lady Zhang was incredulous at first, but shook her head with a sigh.
The village chief looked as expected.
As for Mr. Qu, everyone can't understand it.
I saw that he faintly wanted to laugh, was he angry?
Xie Yujiao somewhat understood her grandfather's expression, presumably to clean up the rich Tang Clan.
Most of the people who heard Fu Shen speak were like the village chief, with such an expression.
There were also a small number of people, who were gloating, discussing whether the old man would pay the money, or how much he would have to take at least to send the insatiable woman in the house.
Old lady Li finally relieved her breath and yelled, "What does your daughter-in-law want to do? Why don't you look at the doctor as long as you have money? His angry cane thumped on the bluestone slab.
The young man who had been following him next to him hurriedly stepped forward and rubbed the old man's chest, gave him a good breath, and persuaded him, "Grandpa, don't be angry, you can't be angry, don't be angry." ”
"The child's mother said, I was originally a useless person, originally there was only one labor in the family, barely able to keep the family from starving, and now that she is lying down, the family really has no way to live. Twenty taels is really not much, otherwise ......" Speaking of this, Fu Shen really had no face to continue.
"How else?" Old Man Qu, who didn't say a word from beginning to end, asked.
