Chapter Fifty-Seven: The Wronged

Chapter 57

"Sister Yue'er, Sister Yue'er!" Ling'er called a few times, Yue'er didn't look back, and ran away in a puff! Ling'er stood awkwardly in place, wondering if she should catch up?

The woman next to her said, "Hey, Ling'er, who is that girl just now?" It doesn't seem to be from our village, right? ”

Another woman said, "That girl looks familiar, as if... Where have I seen the average! Oh, by the way, I heard that Sister Jiajie came back with a large family this morning! Could that girl be the granddaughter of the old village chief? ”

"Huh? Granddaughter! Isn't it? That... Then if what we just said reached the ears of the old village chief, would it ......?"

"Hey! What are you afraid of? This is not from us, we all listen to what others say, and everyone knows about it, and the old village chief will not do anything to us if he knows it! ”

"Confused, you, the old village chief naturally won't do anything to us, but none of his daughters-in-law are fuel-efficient lamps, I'm afraid it will be ...... when the time comes."

Ling'er took advantage of the woman's discussion to take a look and slip away, hesitated for a moment at the mouth of the alley, and ran to the old village chief's house. When she arrived at the old village chief's house, she saw that the courtyard door was wide open, but there was no sound inside.

She rushed to the door in a few steps, and the people in the courtyard looked at it together, and Yue'er, who was standing in front of Grandma Gui, looked back at Ling'er and said loudly: "Grandma, I don't believe you asked Ling'er, she heard it just now!" ”

Ling'er was stunned for a moment, suffered! It's really not the right time for her to come, she wants to quit, and the fourth daughter-in-law shouted: "Stop!" ”

Ling'er stopped and looked at her blankly: "Hello Aunt Four, is there something wrong with Aunt Four?" ”

"Humph! Who is your fourth aunt, my mother-in-law's surname is Wang, and my mother's surname is Tang, what does it have to do with your Yang family! ”

Ling'er's face changed, she tried to suppress her anger, and wanted to turn around and leave, but the other party didn't let her go: "What are you running?" Isn't it empty-hearted? ”

Ling'er was annoyed in her heart, and took a step forward and said: "I, Yang Ling'er, do things according to the conscience of heaven and earth, what is there to be good and weak?" ”

"Oh, what a conscience! I think that when your father and mother begged in our village, they almost starved to death, if it wasn't for our father and mother to be kind first, give them food, and take them in, your family still doesn't know how to be pitiful now!

Now my father has made an exception to accept you as a female doll as a student, teach you to read and write, and my mother will give you all kinds of good things, but I didn't expect you to be a white-eyed wolf who can't be fed! It's not your turn to point fingers and gossip about our family's affairs! ”

Ling'er was angry: "When did I point my fingers and gossip about you?" Fourth aunt, don't spew blood! ”

"I'm spurting blood? How many people in the village can know about this matter? No one has mentioned it for so many years before, why have you only been here for a few days, and the village has been in an uproar? What do you say about the good things we care about our mother, I think it's your own uneasy kindness, right?

Hmph, the girl's family, she didn't learn well at a young age, and she actually used the literacy to pull the relationship from the beginning, do you think that if you are well-behaved and sweet-mouthed, our mother will be able to give you the three kinds of gold? Dream! You have to figure it out, your surname is Yang or not Wang, no matter how careful you are, even if you don't give us Peng'er Yan'er's turn! ”

Ling'er was about to explode, she just came over with Yue'er to see the situation, but she didn't expect to be inexplicably slandered by others as ill-intentioned, uneasy and kind, and even wanted to covet other people's money!

She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth and glared at the fourth daughter-in-law, the fourth daughter-in-law sneered, turned her head to Grandma Gui and said, "Mother, they all say that outsiders are unreliable, you still don't believe it!" You see, this little girl has only been here for a few days, and she has actually found out our family's background clearly, and it is still spreading in the village! Now, everyone in our village knows that you have a set of gold three things worth a thousand gold! ”

"I didn't know that Grandma Gui had three kinds of gold, it wasn't my gossip!" Ling'er yelled angrily.

The third daughter-in-law smiled: "Oh, this little girl is quite stubborn, and she still doesn't admit it at this time!"

Father, mother, I have already inquired clearly, it is this little girl who makes it bad! Last night, when she and her mother were grinding glutinous rice noodles at Xiaohuzi's house, they also said to those people in the village who love to chew the root of their tongue, your dowry back then was very rich, if it wasn't for something wrong with your uncle's family, and you posted some out, our family might not be worse than Wang Yuan's family! Fortunately, you always had the foresight to leave the golden three things behind!

Mother, I heard that the price of gold on the market has risen now, the original ten taels of silver can be exchanged for one tael of gold, at the end of last month it rose to fifteen taels of silver and one tael of gold, and I heard that yesterday it has risen to eighteen taels of silver and one tael of gold!

You see, everyone knows about Jin San, and every Chinese New Year is a time when thieves are rampant, or... Let's..."

Grandma Gui squinted at her, the third daughter-in-law laughed dryly, and the second daughter-in-law said, "Second sister-in-law, you can also talk about it!" ”

The second daughter-in-law smiled softly: "Well, the third brother and sister have a bit of a point, but I listen to my mother for everything, and my mother will do whatever she says!" ”

The fourth daughter-in-law said: "Mother, I asked my eldest brother to inquire, I heard that the price of gold rose this time because the big master of the capital wanted to make a batch of gold utensils, and it rose for a while, but now the price has come to an end, once the gold is enough, the price will fall immediately, or... Let's exchange the three pieces of gold for silver...... That's a lot of silver! ”

The third daughter-in-law's eyes lit up: "Really? Fourth brother and sister, is this news reliable? Mother, or we'll ......."

Grandma Gui raised her eyes: "Do you want me to take out my dowry and exchange it for silver, and then you can divide it?" ”

"yes, yes! Oh no, no, no, I mean... Is it to say... Hehe! The ......third daughter-in-law stammered, and the fourth daughter-in-law said, "Mother, we mean that you first exchange the three pieces of gold into silver for safekeeping, and you will have more money in your hands, right?" We're here for you! ”

"yes, yes! That's what I mean! The third daughter-in-law and the fourth daughter-in-law sang and harmonized, although the second daughter-in-law did not speak, her head was slightly lowered, but her eyes glanced at the old village chief, Grandma Gui and Wang Jiajie from time to time.

The courtyard was silent, everyone was looking at Grandma Gui, and when she spoke, Yue'er suddenly shouted angrily: "Third aunt, fourth aunt, you really came here for my grandmother's silver!" You wicked eyes! ”

The fourth daughter-in-law slapped her face and said: "Oh, Xiao Yue'er, you can blame your fourth aunt and me, I really didn't know about this before, I heard it from others, if it weren't for ......" She looked around, pointed at Ling'er and said: "If it weren't for this little girl chewing the root of her tongue, I wouldn't know about it by now!" ”

The third daughter-in-law also hurriedly cleared up the relationship: "Yes, yes, I didn't hear about this until the middle of the night last night, father, mother, do you know that my family and I are honest people, how can we have so many bad intentions?" We just came today to see the eldest sister, if it hadn't been for Yue'er girl, I wouldn't have remembered! ”

The two daughters-in-law put all the responsibility on Ling'er, and did not forget to persuade the old lady to exchange gold for silver. Ling'er began to be very angry, and even wanted to beat people up, but after she was angry, she felt funny, she wanted to see how these two women sang double reeds, how they made themselves wronged, and how they put all the responsibility on themselves, a six-year-old girl.
