Chapter 14: The First Battle of Life
Squatting down and grabbing a handful of overflowing barley grains on the ground, Lin Zhenniang raised her head and said with a smile: "I just said that Uncle Zhao is a good crop, look at this wheat, it is all full!" ”
"That's—that's going to be planted! Yes, the ...... to keep the seeds" The young daughter-in-law's face was slightly red, although she was a little shy, but she still said so.
Although she didn't know the specific situation, she knew that her father-in-law didn't want to pay so much rent to the Lin family. No matter what, you can't let this little lady of the Lin family stay in the barn like this.
made up her mind, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhao family came over and pulled Lin Zhenniang's arm, and dragged her out, "Little lady, you are all guests here, or do you go into the house to drink tea, what are you doing here?" Dust and dirt—this dirty ......"
As she spoke, she deliberately patted the grain hoard on the side. Suddenly, the sky was filled with dust.
Lin Zhenniang coughed, but she didn't lie in the barn.
Shandong side, although it is a granary, it also belongs to the north, and the main grain is wheat. Generally, farmers grow either barley or wheat. In addition to these grains, peanuts, cotton, and various trees are also grown.
Lin Zhenniang glanced at it just now, and the barn was full of barley, and she didn't see anything else. Moreover, these three grain hoards are obviously not the Zhao family's annual harvest. After thinking about it, most of the grain was still shipped out and sold, and what was left in the barn was only food for the family, and it was not enough to keep it as seed as the woman said. If there are so many seeds, how much land will the Zhao family have to rent in the coming year?
"Sister-in-law, I think your family is still Uncle Zhao's best at planning, and he knew early that we were coming to collect rent, so he deliberately sold the grain to raise money, but it saved you from using a car to send it again."
"Where?! Da Lang, they didn't go into the city to rent ......" stopped in time, the woman laughed dryly, and just pushed Lin Zhenniang into the house.
Lin Zhenniang took root at the door of the barn, "Yo, then dare to love these wheat are prepared for us?" I don't know if it's enough, it looks like I really want you to send it, our car doesn't seem to fit - I'm still going to ask Dongbo to see how to load this food! ”
"Yo, little lady, don't mind, sit in the house first......"
Lin Zhenniang just laughed and turned her head to look, but Lin Dong didn't know when he was discharged from the hospital.
"Dongbo," she called, and she raised her feet to walk out. The woman was in a hurry, grabbed Lin Zhenniang's arm, refused to let go, and pushed Lin Zhenniang into the house again.
How could Lin Zhenniang be willing, but her small body was much weaker than this young daughter-in-law, and she couldn't push her away for a while. The two were at a stalemate, and someone at the gate of the courtyard suddenly asked in a rough voice, "What are you doing here?" ”
As soon as the woman raised her head, she was immediately overjoyed: "Da Lang, it's good for you to come back - this little lady wants to rob our family of food......"
Lin Zhenniang was stunned at first, and then burst out laughing. The most inverted black and white in this world is the human mouth, but it is really a mouth, you can say whatever you want.
Turning his head to look at the young man who strode in from outside the courtyard, the corners of Lin Zhenniang's mouth were hooked, although she saw the man's five big and three thick figure, she knew that he was a powerful one at a glance, but she was not afraid.
"It's the eldest brother of the Zhao family, right? You lady thinks it's bad! I'm here to collect rent, not to steal things! In this blue sky and white day, who dares to grab something? Don't dare to talk nonsense. ”
The woman's face was hot, but she still blocked Lin Zhenniang, "Little lady, you really can't take that food......"
"I didn't say that I have to ask for the grain, sister-in-law of the Zhao family, I want to rent money, not grain-this tenant land is rented, but it's not natural?!"
"No, it's not...... the woman was a little clumsy, and when she saw her man standing not far away, she didn't seem to know what to say, so she immediately turned her head and shouted at the back room, "Daddy! The little lady of the Lin family is going to rob us of food......"
Depend on! To say that?!
"Sister-in-law of the Zhao family, you can really say with this mouth, if the robbers have your mouth like this, then everything in the world will really belong to him!"
A large group of people poured out of the house, Zhao Dalang who was making a gesture, Zhao Dalang's daughter-in-law who beat her chest, and the old lady who was about to wipe her tears, but Chen was squeezed last intentionally or unintentionally.
"Zhenniang, what's wrong?" Chen screamed urgently, and his face was full of anxiety and wanted to come forward.
"Mother, I'm fine!" Lin Zhenniang screamed first, and then sneered at Zhao Dalang: "Uncle Zhao, you are really capable, you still receive so much food after this arrears." This barn is full of piles, and I think that these grains can be eaten by ten people, and they can eat until next autumn! ”
When Lin Zhenniang said this, the Chen family also knew that what Zhao Dalang said just now was a lie. No matter how kind she is, no matter how unwilling she is to worry more about others, she can't help but change her face.
It is the nature of people to be kind, but if this nature is used for profit, no matter how kind a person is, he will feel unhappy.
"Da Lang, why are you doing this? You also know what the situation of our Lin family is now. If you do this, you don't feel like you're at a loss?! ”
Chen's questioning did not make Zhao Dalang show half a sense of shame, but he was in a hurry to call out the heavens: "Alas, Mrs. Chen!" There is only so much grain in the barn, and this is our total harvest for the year, and it is really not enough for our own family, otherwise how could I pull my face down and beg you!? ”
Hearing this, Lin Zhenniang snorted, and her eyes swept over the boss of the Zhao family who was standing on the side a little wooden. I couldn't help but feel moved.
said that he entered the city, so in the jacket he put on his shoulder, shouldn't it be the money from the sale today?
"Uncle Zhao, are you sorry to say this? Also the total harvest of the year? What did my brother Zhao do when he entered the city? What was that on his shoulder? So heavy? Sold for tens of thousands of dollars? ”
As she spoke, Lin Zhenniang went straight to the boss of the Zhao family. The woman who was blocking her saw it, and she was also anxious, for fear that she would snatch the burden, so she pulled down Lin Zhenniang's arm, grabbed the front and back, and pushed her hard with the other hand.
Lin Zhenniang was defenseless, and was pushed by the woman so that she stumbled and almost fell.
"You're pushing me?!" Angry, Lin Zhenniang didn't think about it, so she pushed it over.
Although Lin Zhenniang's strength was weak, she also pushed the woman's body to shake. The boss of the Zhao family, who was still standing on the side, roared, rushed over and slammed into Lin Zhenniang. Lin Zhenniang hadn't woken up yet, and the person had already fallen to the ground.
The fall was not light, her buttocks slammed to the ground, and the shock was numb, and even half of her body that hit the ground was wooden, and her brain was dizzy, and she fell to the ground, and it took a while to understand what had happened.
As soon as the person looked up, he was shocked to see that the Chen family was grabbing the arm of the boss of the Zhao family, and he actually bit it on the head. The boss of the Zhao family was in pain, where could he take care of anything else, and as soon as his arm shook, he pushed his head towards the Chen family.
Lin Zhenniang only felt a "buzzing" sound in her brain, and she couldn't think of anything. She couldn't remember the theory, she couldn't remember who was right and who was wrong, and when she saw Chen fall to the ground, she only felt the blood rushing upward, and her chest seemed to explode with hatred.
Jumping up, as if the pain in her body had miraculously disappeared, she pounced on Zhao Da fiercely, hitting the man's chest headfirst.
"Bastard! You dare to hit my mother - a thousand knives, shameless dog! ** or people aren't they?! She scolded angrily in her mouth, but in fact, Lin Zhenniang didn't know what she was scolding.
Regardless of the reckless pounce, whether it was hitting her head or kicking it, or opening her fingers to grab it or bite it with her mouth, Lin Zhenniang tore and beat like crazy - she didn't remember anything, she only knew that the man in front of her was her big enemy - this bastard hit her mother right in front of her eyes......
"Zhen Niang, Zhen Niang......" Chen got up, screamed, and wanted to rush forward, but was grabbed by Zhao Dalang's daughter-in-law, and even the old lady who looked like she was sixty years old also reached out to pull her. Chen was angry and shocked, but he refused to push too hard, for fear that he would really hurt this old lady who was old.
Although he couldn't beat Zhao Da, Lin Zhenniang's crazy attack also caused Zhao Da to suffer some minor injuries. The daughter-in-law of the Zhao family and Zhao Dalang also rushed over, and they only shouted "Don't fight, don't fight...... it seemed to be fighting, but it was Lin Zhenniang who was pulling. Even the daughter-in-law of the Zhao family secretly pinched Lin Zhenniang.
Although Lin Zhenniang was hit a few times, she did not back down. It doesn't matter who pulls her, or who is secretly doing it, anyway, the people who come over are all from the Zhao family, and she doesn't look at who is in front of her, anyway, as long as it is a person, she will kick and beat hard, no matter which one it is, it is always right to beat......
"What is this doing?!" Suddenly, a loud shout rang out.
Lin Zhenniang didn't care who was calling at this time, she just muffled her head and bit the outstretched arm. I vaguely heard Chen crying: "Dongbo, Dongbo, save Zhenniang......"
Someone shouted, and the person who was pulling him in the back suddenly let go, causing Lin Zhenniang to fall on the person in front of her. Although she fell, Lin Zhenniang still didn't let go, and still bit hard.
"Don't let go yet—" Zhao Dalang called.
The woman who was pressed under Lin Zhenniang cried bitterly: "She won't let go!" ”
"Little lady, little lady......"
It seemed to be Lin Dong's voice, and with the shout, a body hugged Lin Zhenniang into his arms from behind, "Zhenniang, it's okay, it's okay......"
The familiar sound and taste made Lin Zhenniang's tense nerves gradually relax.
Slowly relenting and letting go of the people under her, she turned her head and looked at Chen's tear-stained face, and couldn't help but raise her hand to straighten out Chen's slightly broken hair, "Mother, my hair is messed up......"
Her understatement made the tears that Chen had been holding back roll out again. Holding Lin Zhenniang, she cried bitterly: "My hard-working daughter ......"
Holding Chen back, Lin Zhenniang relieved her heart and finally remembered what happened.
Squinting her eyes, she raised her head, and her gaze coldly swept over Zhao Dalang, Zhao Da, who was standing not far away, and the daughter-in-law of the Zhao family who was rubbing the tooth marks on her arm that were still bloody.
"Y-do you want to fight again?!"
PS: During the big scuffle, the real brain is blank. I just recently had this kind of experience that I haven't had in my life, so I'm writing about it here.
