Chapter 16 Bills

Hearing this, the three old men changed their faces one after another, and the second aunt Zhou Fengqin said angrily with a gloomy face: "Fuck your mother's subordinate slave!" Who doesn't want a gift money for a daughter-in-law? Did they all sell their daughters to their in-laws' families as subordinates? What's wrong with 3,000 yuan, my niece has such a good character, and even the Capital University was easily admitted, isn't it worth the dowry of 3,000 yuan? ”

"I'll give you 3,000 yuan, and you can take the college entrance exam for me?"

This is actually a bit far-fetched, but Zhou Fengqin's face is really scary, as if whoever dares to refute will slash whom, and the people around him are stunned and don't dare to make a sound.

Lin Xiaoliang lowered her head and sniffed, she was both moved and sarcastic in her heart, her uncles, aunts and cousins came, but those brothers were nowhere to be seen.

Shen Mincheng smoked a cigarette, didn't know what he was thinking without saying a word, and said slowly for a long time: "What are you here for today?" ”

"For what?" Lin Nianqiang sneered, and suddenly stretched out his hand to pinch Shen Xiaobao's face into shape, "I threw this little beast into the dung pit, why are you asking me again?" ”

As he spoke, he circled his gaze and quickly fixed his eyes on the manure tank next to the vegetable patch outside the courtyard.

That posture, if Shen Mincheng said something that didn't listen to him, he would definitely do what he said.

Shen Xiaobao was completely stupid, he originally dared to struggle, but he didn't dare to move now.

Shen Mincheng's hand shook, and sporadic soot with red light came out of the pipe, and he didn't care about it, so he said in a good voice: "If you have something to say, you have no grievance......s and no hatred."

"No grievances?" Zhou Fengqin slammed Wang Zhaodi's face into the mud, and said in a loud voice: "You told me that there is no injustice and no hatred? Whose daughter was almost murdered and miscarried, saying that there is no injustice or hatred? Your Shen family is generous, my Lin family's girl doesn't suffer such a dumb loss! ”

She pointed at Shen Xiaobao and scolded: "How old is this little rabbit cub, he dares to do such a thing that loses his conscience, and he can't kill people and set fire when he grows up?" ”

Although Zhou Fengqin's words were sensational, they were not unreasonable, and the surrounding villagers of Yuanjiazhuang, who were not used to seeing the Shen family as a spoiled child, whispered.

Shen Mincheng's face turned red, and he said a little hesitantly: "How could Xiaobao be like what you said, he was just too skinny, and accidentally bumped into Chi Wa's daughter-in-law, Chi Wa's daughter-in-law's body and bones were not strong......"

"Whew!" This time it was the eldest aunt Li Fangmei who spoke, and she was slightly angry, "Who do you say is not strong?" She looked at the surrounding villagers, "Fellow villagers, you can go and inquire, although my niece is an old woman, she was born at full term, and there is nothing wrong with the womb, her parents love her again, she is close to her for food and clothing, she has no malnutrition and anemia, which other people have, why is her body not strong in less than two months after she got married?" ”

She stared at Shen Mincheng coldly, "What you have done, don't want to splash dirty water on others." ”

"What do you say, the child is honest." Zhou Fengqin said coldly: "When we don't inquire, can't we be? I've seen a lot of Pi Shi children, but I've never seen Sandong Layue push other children into the river and almost lose their lives, nor have I seen firecrackers thrown in the faces of other children without saying a word, and I have never seen anyone who smashed the heads of the elders of the clan with a big stone after being taught a few words! ”

"There are quite a few, do you want me to continue?"

Not to mention, because of Wang Zhaodi's connivance and protection, Shen Xiaobao did a lot of evil. Let's just say that the child who was pushed into the river was not said to be strong but absolutely healthy, but since then he has fallen ill, and he has to drink medicine in winter, but his parents are honest, and they are ridiculed for shrews like Wang Zhaodi, not to mention compensation.

The child whose face was thrown with firecrackers was not much better, although he was not disfigured, but one eye was injured, although he was not blind, he had a thousand degrees of myopia. It's just that the girl has only one widowed mother, and she has nowhere to go if she wants justice.

The remaining elders of the clan who had their heads smashed were even more unlucky, the old man in his sixties, not to mention the loss of face, and still lying in bed for half a year. This family is also the only one who has received some compensation, just a sack of sweet potatoes, which is not enough for ten days of medicine money.

At this time, there happened to be two people from the families of the parties present. As soon as the others saw them, they muttered in their hearts, and when they said it, this child did seem to be a little naughty......

There are even some people who "sympathize with the same disease" to denounce it.

"Last month, there was one less chicken in my house, and that day only Xiaobao came to my house to play with Niu Niu and entered the yard, and the next day I smelled the chicken outside the courtyard of Mincheng's house, and I also specially counted her chickens, and there was no one missing."

"My family is even more unlucky, I put the money from selling eggs under the tablecloth to buy oil and salt, and I don't want to peel a pound of edamame in the kitchen and come out and it will be gone. That will be the only time Xiaobao is tired of playing in the yard and comes in to ask me for water to drink. ”

"My little daughter-in-law has no milk, so I asked my relatives to get some milk powder in the city, and my ** girl lives on that milk powder, but Xiaobao always takes advantage of our inattention to grab ** girl's milk bottle, which makes ** girl cry when she is hungry at night. It's not that I'm stingy, the milk powder is really not cheap. ”

……

"Then why don't you come to the door to ask for an explanation?"

"Discussion? How to talk about it? Is Wang Zhaodi a reasonable person? Just don't get beaten upside down. ”

The voices of those people became louder and louder, and Shen Mincheng's face became more and more ugly, but it was Wang Zhaodi, not only did not feel ashamed, but looked resentful.

"Enough, don't talk about it!" Shen Mincheng looked at Li Fangmei, "It's our Shen family who can't stand it, let's say it, as long as we can do it, we won't shirk it." He can see that it is this old lady who is in charge, and if she is not satisfied, their family will not want to live in peace today.

Lin Xiaoliang raised her eyebrows in surprise, this father-in-law didn't seem to be as she thought...... Useless.

But also, no matter how powerful Wang Zhaodi is, she is just a woman, and she is still a woman who marries for the second time with an oil bottle, if it weren't for Shen Mincheng's bias, she wouldn't be as rampant in the Shen family as she is now.

"Split!" Li Fangmei said loudly.

The scene was quiet, and without waiting for everyone to be in an uproar, a thin little daughter-in-law stood up, "Fathers and fellow villagers, it's not our Lin family who is aggressive, it's really ......" She sighed, and said with a wry smile: "This time our little sister has an accident, Shen Xiaobao won't say anything, no matter how stubborn they are, they are just children, just these adults...... When our little sister complained of stomach pain, no one paid attention, and a big living person shed so much blood in the room, but no one noticed. If Shen Chi hadn't come back just now, he would have died in one corpse if he didn't say it well. We are really scared, living with such an elder, our little sister has ten lives is not enough. ”

As she spoke, she said with tears in her eyes: "I don't need to say that the situation of the Shen family is better than me, if it is my mother-in-law, no matter how bitter we are, we can only swallow it in our stomachs, and there is no reason to divide people's flesh and blood." But she's just a stepmother, so we can't abuse our daughters. ”

The memory is too long, Lin Xiao wasted a lot of effort to remember, this little daughter-in-law is her filial brother's wife, looking delicate and weak, but she is a neat and straightforward, and she likes her aunt the most.

It stands to reason that Lin Xiaoliang should call her sister-in-law, but the three of them are close, the second uncle always said that the cousin-in-law was divided, and she herself has a sister-in-law, and she is easy to mix with the sister-in-law, and then the second aunt made a decision, saying that Wanwan is still young, and she doesn't need to call her sister-in-law seriously, just call her sister.

This girl's name is Tang Hanfang, she graduated from junior high school, and she can definitely be regarded as a cultural person in this meeting, Lin Xiaoliang has always called her Sister Hanfang.

"There are some things that I don't vomit and don't feel unhappy." Tang Hanfang wiped her face and said bitterly: "Everyone knows that Shen Chi gave 3,000 gifts when he married our little sister and took out all the family funds, but in fact, it is not. ”

The surrounding villagers looked at each other, what did this mean?

Tang Hanfang said with red eyes: "I'm not afraid of everyone's jokes, when the young couple made a marriage, my aunt asked for sixty-four legs with three turns and one ring, and Shen Chi did not hesitate to respond." It's just that when it comes to getting married, everyone knows what the situation is. ”

"I know this, Shen Chi asked Shen Shu to ask for this money, but Uncle Shen's money was used for Shen Zhu's marriage and to Xiaobao, and he couldn't take it out at all." A daughter-in-law in Yuanjiazhuang who likes to watch the excitement said.

"If that's the case, we don't have anything to say," he paused, "even if Shen Zhu is just a stepson." ”

Tang Hanfang opened the cloth bag she was carrying, took out a stack of paper from it, and handed it to the villagers.

"What is this? I can't read. ”

"It's familiar."

"Caifa, tell you what this is."

"It's a bill!"

"What bill?"

"Bills to send money!"

"What!?"

The villagers were like exploding a pot, and they all paid 120,000 points of attention to the bills in their hands.

Shen Mincheng seemed to realize something, and his expression changed greatly.

"I'm fifty-two."

"I'm twenty-six."

"I'm a hundred and ten dollars."

"I'm ninety-seven."

……

"One hundred and ninety."

"Five hundred and eighty pieces."

"Two hundred."

"Two hundred and sixty dollars."

"Four hundred and fifty pieces."

"Eight hundred."

"A thousand."

"One thousand and one hundred dollars."

As the numbers came out, the surrounding pumping sounds became louder and louder.

Tang Hanfang said angrily: "As everyone thinks, these are the bills left by Shen Chi when he sent the money home, and even, these are not all, some of the early years have been lost." ”

"Shen Chi did ask Old Man Shen for money for a dowry, but what he wanted was his own money!"

"Oh my God, there's nearly 10,000 dollars here!" Someone made a rough calculation and shouted in surprise.

"These were all sent back by my brother when my aunt was still there, and my brother didn't keep it at all. Especially before he joined the army, his brother made a fortune by reselling, and he was almost arrested by the Red Guards for speculation, and it can be said that he earned it back with his life. Later, A-Niang died, and my brother knew his father's virtue, so he no longer sent money back, and only left some family money during family leave. Shen Xiumiao whispered in Lin Xiaoliang's ear.
