Chapter 28: The Twenty-Eighth Reincarnation of the Heavenly Master
Qiu Xiaoqiu and Zhan Xiaoxiao went out to ask questions separately, and Qin Tai also began to question Ma's brother and sister-in-law, accompanied by the village chief. The village chief felt that it was normal to do this, and actively cooperated with Qin Tai to do so. Besides, the village is so big, and the village chief has almost watched these people grow up, although he doesn't know it completely, but he also knows that it is not far from ten. Ma's brother and sister-in-law had no way to hide it if they wanted to, so they had to answer questions to Qin Tai one by one. However, the answers of the two people are a little different, the brother is more reserved, and the sister-in-law is very dissatisfied with the Ma family.
Ma's name is Ma Yuelan, the youngest daughter in the family, and the youngest child in the family. The Ma family is not a big family in the local area, and Ma's father is not a celebrity. Ma's elder brother Ma Kui is the eldest son in the family and the only boy in the Ma family. Below Ma Kui is Ma's family, that is, Ma Yuelan's sister Ma Guilan. Ma Kui confessed that his eldest sister Ma Guilan was sold to other places as a child bride as early as when she was eight years old. It wasn't until the younger sister Ma Yuelan got married that some contact was restored, but the relationship between their husband and wife and Ma Guilan was average, and Ma Yuelan and Ma Guilan were relatively close. Ma Yuelan is the youngest daughter of the Ma family, so her parents have loved her since she was a child, so Ma Kui is very envious of Ma Yuelan. Ma Yuelan is thirteen years younger than Ma Kui and nine years younger than her sister Ma Guilan, which means that Ma Yuelan was not born when Ma Guilan left home.
Ma Kui thought he was the male of the Ma family, so his father asked someone to choose the name. Ma Guilan was born in August, so she was named Ma Guilan. Because my sister's name is Ma Guilan, my sister's name is relatively similar to my sister, Ma Yuelan was born on the day of the full moon, so she has the name Ma Yuelan. It may be that the Ma family and his wife feel sorry for the child because they sold their eldest daughter so early, and their old couple loves this little daughter very much. Boys in the countryside also get married relatively early, and according to their elders, they can not only become grandparents as soon as possible, but also have the energy to help the children take care of their children. When Ma Kui entered the door at the age of fifteen to marry his wife who was a year older than him, his wife immediately sensed that this Ma Yuelan was threatening her. Although patriarchy is very serious in the countryside, and almost all of the property of the Lao Ma family is given to Ma Kui, the husband and wife of the Lao Ma family love their little daughter so much and have exceeded the standard. The new daughter-in-law who had just entered the door began to worry about her sister-in-law's future division of property.
still really told this new daughter-in-law that after entering the door, she not only had to serve her parents-in-law, but also this sister-in-law. Ma Yuelan seems to like to go against this sister-in-law, often teasing her sister-in-law and not saying anything, and often complaining to her parents. Every time her parents-in-law blamed her, she hated this sister-in-law a little. finally waited for Ma Yuelan to grow up, and when Ma Yuelan was ready to marry Wang San, who had already been married, the groom Wang San said that he would go out for a few years, and he hated his sister-in-law so much that he gritted his teeth. After persisting like this for a few more years, Wang San finally came back and agreed to marry Ma Yuelan. The sister-in-law just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but she didn't expect Ma Yuelan to say that she wanted a dowry for an oxcart, so angry that her sister-in-law almost impulsively wanted to strangle this sister-in-law Ma Yuelan. At that time, Ma Yuelan's parents were still alive, and they made the decision to give Ma Yuelan a dowry that exceeded the originally agreed dowry of nearly three times, and Ma Yuelan was only able to get rid of the door of the Ma family.
Although Ma Yuelan's sister-in-law was a lot easier after getting married, Ma Yuelan still did not let go of her brother and sister-in-law. Ma Yuelan often relies on her status in the Ma family and meddles in her mother's affairs from time to time. Even when her parents died, she had to intervene, and she had to preside over it herself, and her sister-in-law endured it again and again. The sister-in-law later admitted that the village said that Ma Yuelan gossiped that she would not have children, and it was she who spread it, which was also true anyway. Unexpectedly, Wang San seized this point and not only wanted to marry a little wife, but also broke up with Ma Yuelan in the end. Ma Yuelan was kicked out of the house by Wang San and had to return to her parents' house to live. Of course, my sister-in-law didn't want Ma Yuelan to come back, so she deliberately caused a dispute in order to drive Ma Yuelan away. Ma Yuelan left Zhumadian angrily, and it is said that she went to find her sister Ma Guilan. Where Ma Guilan lives and what she does, Ma Kui and his wife really don't know, but Ma Yuelan once said a word or two, as if Ma Guilan lived in the county seat seventy or eighty miles away from Zhumadian.
Ma Yuelan has been gone for nearly two years, and when she came back, she seemed to have changed her temper a little, and she no longer deliberately contradicted her sister-in-law, so her sister-in-law was embarrassed to trouble Ma Yuelan every day. Ma Yuelan usually either stays in her room, or goes to the village for a walk, and sometimes receives some business. Ma Yuelan had a better temper and promised to pay for the meal, so her brother and sister-in-law had to let her continue to live at home. Unexpectedly, Ma Yuelan, who was fine yesterday, died at home today, which made her brother and sister-in-law very passive and wronged.
Qin Tai listened and recorded at the same time, and at the same time secretly observed the expressions of Ma Kui and his wife, and soon judged that the couple was not lying. Although there was a discrepancy in the answers, this also means that they were not lying, and the couple did not check their confessions in advance. Especially when the sister-in-law mentioned what happened before Ma Yuelan got married, that expression was very normal and reasonable. For a long time, the conflict between sister-in-law and sister-in-law has always been ranked only after the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and it is one of the most difficult relationships for almost every family to deal with. There is no family that truly achieves the peace and tranquility of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and the harmony between sisters-in-law and beauty. The only solution is that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law do not live together, and the sister-in-law does not come and go often, so it will be peaceful. Even Qin Tai's family is the same, when Qin Tai's mother is alive, she will have differences of opinion with Zhan Xiao because of some trivial things, if it weren't for Qin Tai's persuasion, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law would also have problems. Qin Tai felt that Ma Kui and his wife were not only not murderers, but also did not know about it.
Just when Qin Tai finished asking, Zhan Xiaoxiao also came back. As soon as the shopkeeper returned to her shop, Zhan Xiaoxiao came. The female shopkeeper did not hide it, and told Zhan Xiaoxiao all the relationship between herself and Ma Yuelan, anyway, almost everyone knew all this. The female shopkeeper is also surnamed Ma, if you talk about it in detail, she is still a generation older than Ma Yuelan, and Ma Yuelan wants to call her aunt. However, in such a small village, there are not so many rules, and the two families have already come out with five suits, so everyone is commensurate with each other. The female shopkeeper's name is not good to call Erya, so she is often laughed at by her peers in the village, and Ma Yuelan is also one of them, and she laughs the most. Erya and Ma Yuelan and other seven or eight girls almost grew up together, and later the other girls got married, leaving only Erya and Ma Yuelan two girls of the same age in the village. Ma Yuelan stayed in the village because she married Wang San from the same village, but Erya stayed because she couldn't marry and became an old girl in the village. Erya told Zhan Xiaoxiao that the reason why she was called Erya was because she also had a sister named Yatou. But this sister disappeared when she was five years old, and her parents couldn't find it for a long time, and then they had a second girl. Because there are no other children in the family, Erya's parents are unwilling to marry their daughter easily, and the delay has affected Erya's marriage. Later, Er Ya simply refused to marry and wanted to find a door-to-door son-in-law, who could accompany his parents at home and continue to run a repair shop. But there are not many good men who are willing to come to the door to be sons-in-law, and they have not been found for so long.
Erya actually has a very good relationship with Ma Yuelan, when she was a child, Ma Yuelan often bullied Erya, and when she grew up, Ma Yuelan often laughed at the girl's Erya. Erya has a good temper and is honest, so she didn't have a head-on conflict with Ma Yuelan. After Ma Yuelan was kicked out of the house by Wang San, Er Ya really sympathized with Ma Yuelan, and even thought about the idea of running a repair shop with Ma Yuelan. But Ma Yuelan looked down on this business and didn't want to be an old girl with Erya, so she left Zhumadian without a sound.
Ma Yuelan came back half a year ago, and Er Ya once asked Ma Yuelan how the log outside was, but Ma Yuelan didn't want to answer Er Ya and didn't inquire again. Of course, Ma Yuelan's life in her mother's house will not be easy, and of course it depends on her sister-in-law's face when she eats and lives at home. In order to make Ma Yuelan better, in order to help Ma Yuelan tide over the difficulties, Er Ya asked Ma Yuelan to come to the repair shop as a part-time worker, and try to arrange business for Ma Yuelan to do. The days had just settled down, and when Erya was about to help Ma Yuelan find a new husband, Ma Yuelan died like this, which made Erya a little unacceptable. Zhan Xiaoxiao also observed Erya's expression while listening, and found that this Erya was not lying. Erya talks and does things at the same time, which is the most relaxed way to talk, which means that Erya is very relaxed and normal. Unless it's a scheming person, it's impossible for anyone to do that.
Erya is very talkative, but she is not a person who tells the truth, it seems that she usually pays attention to her morality and will not easily slander others. Zhan Xiaoxiao also found that Erya was a bit clean, which is a small habit that some older single women often have. All Erya's personal belongings will not only be sorted out frequently, but also not allowed to be touched by others. This is also the reason why Ma Yuelan is reluctant to be with Erya in the elite repair shop. People who understand Erya's high and self-protection think it's normal, and people who don't understand think that Erya has a problem with her brain and can't understand why Erya is doing this. Erya is reluctant to explain more to outsiders, so there will be some misunderstandings that could have been explained.
