Chapter 51: The Night of the Dark Moon and the High Wind

Not long after the three Du Chaodong brothers left, everyone in the Du family heard a lot of movement in the Xiucai family.

"I don't care, whoever says to give money will give it! Anyway, I don't have a penny! The old lady was bullied and you didn't help, but now I know that I want to ask the old lady for money! Xiu Cainiang's shrill voice could be heard across a row of rooms. Then the low persuasion of the three Du Chaodong brothers came, and they were quickly stabbed back by Xiu Cainiang's loud voice. It took half an hour back and forth before stopping. It seems that Xiucai's family is making trouble for Grandma Du's medical expenses.

Grandma Du is almost sixty years old this year, which is already an absolute old man in ancient times. Even though it didn't seem to be too much of a problem, he was still pressed by the whole family to lie on the bed.

Du Niang slaughtered chickens and fish to prepare for her mother-in-law's body, while Du Dad and a litter of sons pondered how to repay Xiucai Niang a little.

The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the pomegranate trees mixed with many yellow leaves in the courtyard, and the Du family was taking advantage of the dawn to clean up themselves, saving them from waiting for dark to light oil lamps.

There was a knock on the door, and Du Wu ran over to open the door, shouting as he ran: "Who?" โ€

"It's us!" Du Chaodong replied.

Du Chaodong led a young man who was five points like him but much whiter, Du Chaodong was holding a big rooster that kept struggling, and the young man was carrying a small half basket of eggs.

Du Chaodong saw that the Du family was all in the courtyard, and immediately smiled awkwardly, "The fourth child just came back from going to the academy today, and I heard about this to come to see the uncle, these things are kept for the uncle." โ€

Du Chaobei, who was dressed as a scholar, took a step forward and leaned over and said guiltily: "Mother made a mistake this time, thank you for not pursuing it, Xiaosheng is here to make amends for you." โ€

As a pig slaughterer who is openly and secretly despised, Daddy Du, like most illiterates, has a blind admiration for scholars, and thinks that those who study well must be better than others in other aspects. Du Chaobei is a good child who can read in other people's families for Daddy Du. Although the child is almost a dozen years younger than him.

Father Du waved his hand and said with a tiger face: "My mother is fine, this incident has nothing to do with you, and I am not a person who is unforgiving." But I'll talk about it here today, I took a big family to live in the county, and leaving my mother here is to enjoy Qingfu, not to be angry. In the future, who dares to bully people while there is no one in my family, Lao Tzu is not easy to bully! โ€

Du Chaodong and Du Chaobei nodded on the side, eager to put their heads on their chests.

The two were scolded by Daddy Du, and went home with shame on their faces. Du Chaodong is okay, he was originally a farmer, his face is black and red, and he really can't see it if he doesn't look carefully, Du Chaobei, a scholar, is blushing and can't wait to cover his face with a handkerchief.

The two brothers walked out of Du's house, and the second brother Du, who was squatting at the door of the hall, spit out the broom branch in his mouth and turned his head back to his house.

Didn't you say let the dead old woman kowtow?

Why is it that the son has knocked over, and the mother can hide?

The grievances between Grandma Du and Xiucai Niang, in the face of the upcoming autumn harvest, are just two gossips after dinner. The villagers thought that Xiucai's family apologized and lost the money, but they heard Xiucai's screams early in the morning, followed by all kinds of down-to-earth angry scolding.

"That bastard who lacks virtue and lacks things is not good to die! Smashed the door of my house at night! This sunny day and daytime still don't let people live! Lizheng! O Patriarch! County lord! Open your eyes! Check it out! My family has been bullied to death!

God's damn bad embryo, there is a kind of come out to kill the old lady! Bullying our family, orphans and widows, their consciences were eaten by dogs! โ€

"Poofโ€”"

The crowd of onlookers didn't know who didn't hold back, and soon burst into laughter.

Xiucainiang's husband has been gone for less than three years, how can a person with a house full of children and grandchildren be embarrassed to say that his family is an orphan and a widow.

Xiucai Niang didn't care what others thought, she still cried and shouted at her mother's waist and stood at the door and scolded. Didn't I push the old woman yesterday, the family lost five taels of silver, and the dignified son had to make amends to her ignorant village woman! She endured this, but when she got up early in the morning, the door was broken several holes, and everyone knew that it was made by the immoral thing next door!

Xiucai Niang got up early in the morning and staged a talk show with her throat, and the two families were not 108,000 miles away, and everyone in the Du family heard the scolding words clearly.

Daddy Du didn't get up before dawn to glance at Grandma Du, and took Brother Du back to the county in a hurry.

Approaching the autumn harvest, the butcher shop business is busy, and yesterday I hurried back to have a pile of meat waiting to be disposed of in the shop.

Father Du thought that there would be no big man in the family, so he simply asked Second Brother Du to close the grocery store in the county town and wait for the autumn harvest to be completed before opening, while Second Brother Du stayed at home to take care of the family.

Xiucai's mother scolded early in the morning, Du Qi and Du Ba ran out early to see the excitement, and when she came back, she said that the door of Xiucai's house had been broken several holes, and several adults looked at Du Erge with strange eyes.

Du Zhiyi grinned with a mouthful of big white teeth and smiled, "Is breakfast ready?" โ€

The eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law went to serve the meal in a panic.

Du Xiaoxi and a few little ones were woken up by Xiu Cainiang's talk show, and when they saw that Second Brother Du looked like he was going to see the joke next door, they followed Du Zhiyi out of the door.

Du Zhiyi went out slowly, and he had long noticed that the villagers here were particularly intimate and made a way for Du Zhiyi to face the spitting star of the talented lady in the past.

Seeing that the Du family came out with Du Zhiyi's ruthless thing, Xiucai Niang shrunk her neck, but thinking that so many people were watching, and she was an elder, Du Zhiyi didn't dare to beat herself, so she instantly had the courage and scolded even more vigorously.

"The bad seed who cut down the gate of my house deserves not to give birth to a son! You deserve to marry an old hen that doesn't lay eggs! You deserve to have a son without an asshole! โ€

"Huh!"

The onlookers gasped in unison.

Xiucai Niang, this is eating tiger gall!

Who in Dujia Village doesn't know that the second daughter-in-law of Du Cheng's family has been married for four or five years, and the girl doesn't have one, let alone a son, who dares to scold people in front of people, and Xiucainiang is also a real shrew.

Du Zhiyi's face remained unchanged, and he swept over the four Du Chaodong brothers with blue faces, "What did the eldest aunt's family do that lacked virtue and was broken down?" When this kind of thing happens, everyone has to go to the street to scold, but! If your family wants to scold, you will also scold in other directions, but there is only one family here, and you scold my family, do you mean that my family cut the door of your house? Although our two families had a conflict yesterday, you can't let your family wronged people casually today, and the county lord still talks about personal and physical evidence? It wasn't my family who did it, why scold my family! โ€

The villagers listened to Du Zhiyi's words are all to laugh or not, Grandpa Du learned the craft of killing pigs and began to collect pigs and kill pigs, many women and children in the village were scared of it, and then after the separation, Grandpa Du simply built the house on the outermost part of the village, away from the river and the main road into the county, and the complaints in the village were gone.

Today, Xiucai Niang scolded the street, but in the direction of the entrance of the village, no one believed that she didn't scold Du Cheng's family.
