Chapter 12: The Green Tea Man
Why didn't he find out before that this girl's mouth was so eloquent?
But Old Man Cheng didn't think much about it, because some people had already begun to complain about Su Qin.
The Cheng family didn't do things behind anyone's back that day, so there were also people in Xiaohe Village who knew about it. I haven't seen Su Qin come back with the Cheng family in the past two days, and the people in the village have spread it in private.
It's just that Su Qin didn't come back, and these villagers were just talking behind their backs, and no one would find out what the Cheng family said.
But now it's different, Su Qin came back with the child, and it seems that he is planning to make a scene. So they're happy to help say a few things fair.
"As the saying goes, tiger poison does not eat children, I said Old Man Cheng, this person can't be too unconscionable. Your family used to live on Yan'an. Now that his bones are still cold, you are selling his daughter-in-law and starving his children to death, is this a bit too ruthless? ”
When Cheng Zhoushi heard this, he jumped up from the ground in anger, pointed at the man and scolded: "It's your!" She Su Qin is the daughter-in-law of my Cheng family, and it has nothing to do with you how we want to send her. If you are full of food and support, hurry up, or I will drive people away with a broom. ”
An elderly man touched his sparse beard and said, "Yanping damn it, that's not what he said. Although the Su family is the daughter-in-law of your Cheng family, she has a mother's family, whether she wants to remarry or not, who to marry, it has to be her own volition, and the mother's family has to nod and agree, how can you just let you marry according to your head? What's more, whether to marry or sell, you know best in your own hearts. Be too desperate to be a man, beware of retribution. ”
Cheng Zhou's burst into flames: "You fucking retribution!" Hurry up, I haven't sorted out my own things yet, where did the big face get involved in my family's affairs! ”
The old man was scolded for being bloody, and he was angry and wanted to quarrel with Cheng Zhou.
Old man Cheng stood up and said with a straight face: "Okay, don't make trouble!" At that time, I was just thinking that the Su family was sick, our Cheng family was so poor, seeing that she was about to die, it happened that someone wanted to marry her and was willing to treat her, we couldn't bear to let her die at a young age, it was not good to explain to the Su family, and the two children were pitiful, so we would rather risk being poked in the back and agree. ”
"Yes, I admit it, the bride price silver I said to that person was also moved, but it's better than watching Su Shi die of illness! If you want to scold in the future, I will suffer everything, and when I get underground, I will go and explain to Yan An to make amends. ”
When Su Qin heard this, he almost wanted to applaud Old Man Cheng.
This is simply an ancient version of green tea! It's still a man!
Look at that! not only stood in the perspective of thinking about her, but also explained his own little abacus thoroughly, which made those who wanted to accuse have nothing to say.
Sure enough, the onlookers all stopped talking, and felt that what Old Man Cheng said seemed to make some sense. The law of the Daye Dynasty allowed widows to remarry, and no one, including their parents, could stop them.
Although the Cheng family has to marry Su Qin according to his head, as Old Man Cheng said, it is better than dying of illness.
What's more, the Cheng family found a serious person with a family background, and they didn't sell Su Qin to those pickled places, which can be regarded as having a conscience.
Su Qin began to re-examine Old Man Cheng, this father-in-law was a quiet person in the impression of the original owner, and his presence in the village was very low, and many people thought he was an honest man.
But from Su Qin's point of view, this old man is definitely not a silent and honest man, but he is too good at hiding himself in the depths, so he left such an image for everyone.
This is a powerful character who pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger.
But she's not a vegetarian either.
bowed his head to wipe his tears and sobbed, and did it in one go, "Father-in-law, if this is what you said, then why did the second brother and younger siblings beat and scolded me viciously that day, and told me to be honest and not to escape, and said that my father-in-law is dead, and no one can help me, even if we kill our mother and son, I deserve it?" ”
Cheng Lianxiang saw that the faces of the villagers had changed again, and hurriedly yelled: "You are talking nonsense!" We haven't said anything yet! ”
Su Qin covered her face and cried, but it didn't affect her to retort clearly: "You just said it, otherwise I wouldn't have misunderstood my father-in-law's kindness." ”
Zhouzhou testified to Su Qin: "You said, you still beat my mother, let my mother be honest." You also pinched me and Yueyue, saying that if there is no father and mother in the future, we will be the descendants of the Cheng family, and we can't fight back and scold back. ”
After speaking, Zhou Zhou turned his head and asked Old Man Cheng innocently: "Master, who is the next person?" Why can't you fight back? ”
Yueyue also snuggled on Su Qin's body and pointed to her legs: "My aunt and second aunt pinched me and told me not to cry, otherwise they would sell me to the cellar." Master, what is a cellar? What is it going to do there? Master, I don't want to go to the cellar, don't sell me, okay? ”
Old man Cheng's face turned pale for a while when he was asked, and he didn't know how to explain it at all.
The onlookers and neighbors also came back to their senses at this time, what kind of person is Su Qinniang? That's a person who has never dared to argue loudly with people, if he wasn't really cornered, would he dare to talk to the Cheng family like this?
If the Cheng family hadn't said those bastard things in front of the two children, how would a five-year-old child know these things?
They almost fooled Old Man Cheng just now.
Aunt Liu, who witnessed the whole process that day, deliberately asked, "Old man Cheng, what is the way for the new mother-in-law you found for Qin Niang?" Why is such a good heart willing to pay money to buy a sick person? ”
Old man Cheng pursed his lips and remained silent.
Su Qin glanced at Aunt Liu and noted down her help. "If I don't admit that person, it should be Li Laipi from the county, I used to meet Xianggong twice when I entered the city from afar."
A woman who had never dealt with Cheng Zhou's family immediately became excited: "Huo, I'll just say that your Cheng family is not well-intentioned, who in Qifu County doesn't know who Li Laipi is?" That's a secret prostitute! Qin Niang really wants to be taken away by him, can she have a good end? It's a shame that you just said that you didn't lose your conscience, and this is your conscience? Qin Niang really followed Li Laipi, it is better to die clean! ”
This woman is from Cheng Zhou's family, and her surname is Zhou, but she is married to a family surnamed Zhang in the village, known as Zhang Zhou. She and Cheng Zhou's don't deal with each other, but they have a grudge since they were young.
The faces of the villagers were also very exciting, and they all verbally denounced Old Man Cheng, saying that Old Man Cheng couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into, and he hated Su Qin even more in his heart.
He has lived most of his life in Xiaohe Village, but he has never been so ashamed as he is today!
Cheng Zhoushi was so angry that he jumped up and scolded those people: "It's your!" Cheng Yan'an is dead, whether she Su Qinniang is dead or alive in the future, it is up to our old Cheng family to decide, it is not your turn to arrange, hurry up! ”
