Chapter 24 Unethical Conduct
"What are you doing? Go ahead! There is hot water boiled by your father in the kitchen. ”
Even the hot water was ready, and Shumei couldn't guess which one they were singing. She looked at Zhang Binglin, who was bowing his head and weaving a bamboo basket in the courtyard, Zhang Binglin's expression was a little flustered, his eyes were also a little evasive, and he was accidentally injured by the bamboo knife in his hand.
"Auntie, don't be so troublesome, I'll just go in and change my clothes."
"What are you doing with all this nonsense? If you are told to wash, you will wash it. ”
Seeing that Shumei was disobedient, Wu Ju's face changed instantly, and she yelled loudly, Shumei was a scoundrel, so she had to obediently go to fetch water and take a bath as she said.
After taking a shower, she returned to the house and prepared to take the dirty clothes to wash, but as soon as she entered the door, Zhang Binglin broke in, looking like a thief with a weak heart and obscene triviality.
"Daddy, what's the matter?"
"I, I, I...... Your aunt said, let me continue the incense for the Zhang family instead of Jizong. ”
What the? They actually came up with such an unethical idea, and Shumei was holding a basin of dirty clothes in her hand, and it fell to the ground with a thud. She staggered back a few steps, her lips trembling with fear.
Wu Ju eavesdropped outside the door, hoping that her best strategy would come true.
Zhang Binglin approached Shumei step by step, and Shumei dodged and persuaded at the same time, "Daddy, how can you be so confused?" This is against ethics and morality, where do you let me have the face to live like this, and where do you let Jizong still stand up straight and be a man? Please, Daddy, don't be like this, it's okay, daughter-in-law beg. ”
"Your aunt said, if this matter doesn't work out, she feels sorry for the ancestors of the Zhang family, then she can only commit suicide by jumping into the river and ask her ancestors for guilt, and Daddy is also forced to be helpless!"
"Daddy, you are insulting your ancestors and ancestors like this!"
Taking advantage of Zhang Binglin's hesitation, Shumei wanted to snatch the door away, but was pushed back into the room by Wu Ju, who was guarding the door. Shumei sat on the ground with her buttocks, looking at Wu Ju, she panicked inexplicably.
"This matter, you know I know he knows, God knows, as long as we are tight-lipped, others will not know, it gave birth to a son and a half daughter, not only Jizong can straighten his waist and be a man, but also continue the incense for our Zhang family, this is the best of both worlds, you will obediently cooperate with your father-in-law!"
After Wu Ju finished speaking to Shumei, she yelled at Zhang Binglin, who was at a loss for what to do, "What are you doing in a daze? Clumsy, he hurried to get things done when he was still a man. ”
Wu Ju exited the door after speaking, closed the door heavily, and locked the door from the outside.
Shumei got up from the ground and banged on the door urgently, "A-Niang, please, open the door, you can't do this, I can't be sorry for Jizong ...... if you kill me."
"Dead old man, are you dead? Still hands-on? ”
Hearing that Shumei was still crying behind the door, Wu Ju shouted at Zhang Binglin inside. Zhang Binglin walked behind Shumei and hugged Shumei's arms from behind. Shumei hurriedly threw his hand away, retreated backwards to dodge, kept shaking her head, her eyes were also a little moist, and Zhang Binglin pressed towards her step by step.
In a panic, she looked around, grabbed the scissors in the sewing basket, and thrust them into her neck.
"Stop, if Daddy steps forward again, I can only defend my dignity with death."
Shumei has never been weak in her bones, her obedience in the past was just for the relationship with Jizong, but now, the second elder is so aggressive, she can't swallow anything anymore, she scolded Zhang Binglin loudly.
Zhang Binglin is usually timid and afraid, looking at the blood droplets overflowing from Shumei's neck, he was so frightened that he had no master, and he stretched out his palms to stop it in a panic.
"Shumei, don't, don't...... If you have something to say, you put the scissors down first. ”
Shumei never dreamed that since her father-in-law could go so far, he would collude with his mother-in-law and do such a dirty thing.
Wu Ju heard that the situation inside was wrong, so she quickly unlocked it and rushed into the house.
"What are you doing here? Want to scare us with death? You disobedient and unfilial thing, you want our Zhang family to cut off their children and grandchildren! Are you trying to force me to death? ”
Wu Ju pounded his chest and slammed his feet, crying and roaring.
"A-Niang, if you do this again, then I can only die."
Shumei spoke categorically, without the slightest intention of compromise, and the scissors in her hand sank into her flesh a little more. If it is someone else, such as the generation of Niu Erwa, she can still fight, but in front of her are the parents of Jizong, the elders, no matter how disobedient she is, she can't fight with them, right? If it really comes to the point of last resort, she can only die to make her will.
"You...... You...... Count you ruthless, you want to force me to die, right? It's good, it's good, it's good, it's good......"
Wu Ju rushed out of the house as he spoke, came back with a kitchen knife, and also put Shumei on his neck, Zhang Binglin saw this situation, and he began to be a little anxious.
"Aju, what are you doing here? Good family, why do you have to make you die, you put down the knife quickly. ”
"You don't have a backache when you stand and talk! I'm working so hard, it's not for your Zhang family, you give me a flash. Kang Shumei, can I tell you, I, Wu Ju, am not frightened, do you think you are the only one who will cry, make trouble, and hang yourself? I will too, if you are so strong, I will die to show you, and see how Jizong will deal with you, the unfilial daughter-in-law who forced her mother-in-law to death. ”
Although Wu Ju said cruel words, he was actually very afraid of death in his heart, and he paid attention to the knife on his neck at any time, for fear that he would inadvertently hurt himself. The knife was still four or five centimeters away from his neck, and his hand trembled slightly.
Shumei had insight into Wu Ju's timidity, she thought that she could only take a risk, as long as she could see Jizong alive, everything could be solved.
"Then Auntie, you still won't let me go, okay, I'll go first."
Shumei lifted the scissors high and put them lightly to pierce her neck.
Wu Ju saw that Shumei was going to move seriously, so she hurriedly shouted loudly, "Stop, we won't force you yet." ”
Zhang Binglin was stunned with fright, his legs trembled, and there were beads of sweat on his forehead, seeing that Shumei stopped his hand, he touched the cold sweat on his forehead and breathed a long sigh of relief.
It's finally rained and the sky is clear, but Shumei can't laugh at all, she has just walked away from the ghost gate, and she is also frightened at the moment, and she is very scared.
"All of you go out, all of you go out for me."
Shumei still clenched the scissors with both hands, refusing to let go of the only life-saving talisman. tremblingly pointed at Wu Ju and Zhang Binglin, wanting to drive them out.
Wu Ju reluctantly turned around and was about to go out, and when she saw Zhang Binglin in a daze, she stepped forward and twisted Zhang Binglin's ears and dragged him out of the room together.
When Shumei saw them go out, she hurriedly closed the door, the scissors in her hand slipped to the ground, and she curled up behind the door, crying in a small cry of grievance. She only hopes that Jizong can come back soon, she has to tell Jizong all this, without Jizong to be her master, with Wu Ju's character, she will definitely find a way to design her again.
"I said you're really stupid, a woman who has no power to restrain the chicken, you can't subdue it, but this daughter-in-law is really stubborn, next time you have to tie her up, or get something ** or something."
Wu Ju sat on the chair in the hall, without any intention of giving up, still planning for the next plan.
"Aju, forget it! A good home, if you toss it again, I'm afraid it will be scattered, and it's not a glorious thing, if it spreads, our Zhang family really won't be able to stay here. If Jizong knew, he would definitely be with us. ”
"Look at your bag, if she is a smart person, how can she tell her own man this kind of thing, and she is too lazy to pay attention to you."
Shumei sat behind the door for a long time, and it wasn't until she heard the sound of Jizong entering the door that she came back from her trance.
Jizong didn't see Shumei when he entered the door, so he hurriedly asked Wu Ju, who was sitting in the house.
"Auntie, why don't you see Shumei?"
Wu Ju didn't think of any way to deal with it, she looked at Jizong with a weak heart, and reluctantly pointed to Shumei's door, she was still a little restless at the moment, and she was afraid that Shumei would bring out the ugly things with Jizong regardless of her face.
Jizong couldn't wait to knock on the door, he looked at Shumei with blood-red eyes and a haggard face, he was worried, and came to Shumei to wipe away the tears on her face that had not yet dried up.
"What's going on? Your neck? ”
Looking at Jizong with a worried face, all the grievances in Shumei's heart came to her heart, and tears couldn't stop pouring out. She looked at Wu Ju who was glaring at her viciously, no matter how fierce Wu Ju's eyes were, she didn't shake her idea of telling Jizong the truth. She sobbed and told Jizong what happened.
When Wu Ju heard this, she kept quibbling and wanted to interrupt Shumei's words, but Shumei still told Jizong everything she wanted to say in one go.
Jizong staggered back in anger and sat down on a chair in the hall. Such a shame and humiliation, Jizong didn't believe it at first, he looked at Shumei who was crying like a tearful person in front of him, and then looked at Wu Ju, who was a thief. After struggling in his heart for a long time, he still chose to believe Shumei, Shumei and him had no guesses, what kind of person Shumei was, he knew very well in his heart that Shumei would never use such a dirty thing to frame his aunt.
"Auntie, why are you so confused, what kind of face do you have for your son to go out like this?"
"Jizong, you white-eyed wolf, I gave birth to you in October, and raised you with hard work, but now you are for a woman, so wrongly gave birth to you and raised your aunt, God! What did I do in my last life? gave birth to such an unfaithful and unfilial rebel, and he was old and helpless, so he might as well die now......"
Wu Ju saw that his son was not on his side, so he hurriedly took out his killer weapon of crying, making trouble and hanging, and sat on the ground crying and making trouble, looking for death and life.
