Chapter 2 Falling into the Tiger's Mouth
She Dayang didn't mean to drive Niu Chonglian away at all, he just wanted to play with Xiao Chonglian! When he saw that his mother was very angry and wanted to drive Niu Chonglian away, She Dayang felt that he couldn't do it, because it was not his intention to drive him away, and it was fun to leave people behind!
So, She Dayang said to his mother: "Isn't it too cheap to drive him away?
"What should I do then?" Mrs. She listened to her son's words and felt that what her son said made some sense.
She Dayang's eyes rolled and said, "What's so difficult about this? Leave him to me to deal with, I have a way." ”
"What can you do?" said my mother," urged Mrs. She.
She Dayang wiped his mouth and said, "It's very simple. Hand him over to me, and you'll leave it alone. ”
"That's not good, your father will never allow it, you are nonsense. Besides, it took us more than 500 years of cultivation to achieve the right result, how difficult it is, we must not make a mistake!" Mrs. She objected vigorously.
"Mother, you think too much! I want to tie him up and beat him up so that he can have a long memory, isn't it okay?" She Dayang said viciously.
Mrs. She was still hesitating: "Is this okay?"
"What's not going to work, it's so decided!" She Dayang felt that there was a door urging.
"You made me think about it. Madame pondered.
"This is such a simple thing, do you still need to think about it?Mother, you just promised me!" She Dayang continued to urge.
"Son, don't break him!" Madame instructed Da Yang.
She Dayang smiled with his mother's permission and said, "Mother, don't worry, I have a number!"
She Xiucheng got a message from his daughter, and learned that his son was discussing with his wife how to punish Niu Chonglian! He hurriedly ran towards his wife's room.
Just as Mrs. She proposed to her son to beat Niu Chonglian and accept it, She Xiucheng broke into Mrs. She's room.
When Mrs. She saw the old man coming, she greeted her and said, "Master, something is wrong." The kid you brought back was a white-eyed wolf. He didn't work well, but he smashed our water tank. My son is talking to me about beating him up and teaching him a lesson! What do you think of this idea?"
She Dayang didn't rush to tell his father about it, because most of what he said his father wouldn't believe it. He was just standing on the sidelines and saying a few words to his mother casually.
She Xiucheng is a very sober-minded person, and after listening to the words of the mother and son, he feels that this matter is not reasonable at all. He knew that his son was a troublemaker. Madame is a man who hears the wind is the rain. Their one-sided claims are not credible.
So, She Xiucheng didn't say anything, and turned around to see the scene of the smashed cylinder.
After She Xiucheng saw the situation there, he already knew in his heart that his son who had nothing to do did it.
Then Mrs. She, who came with her, anxiously asked, "Master, can you give me a word!"
"Wait, when they come back, they will understand, and it's not too late to punish. Yu Xiucheng said angrily, and walked away without looking back.
When it was almost noon, Xiao Chonglian carried a large bundle of firewood on his back and walked into the gate of She's house with difficulty.
She Dayang saw it, he walked over and scolded loudly: "Stop!"
Xiao Chonglian stopped when he heard the young master's shout, raised his head, wiped the sweat on his face with his hand and asked, "Is there something wrong, eldest young master?"
"Bold bad guy, you have a grudge against my family! What is the reason for smashing my water tank?"
Xiao Chonglian listened to the young master's question, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, which stunned him. It's really hard for him to argue. He didn't understand: I haven't offended anyone! Why should I be harmed like this?
She Dayang saw Xiao Chonglian's eyes straightened, so he scolded him again: "Good boy, it's reasonable to smash my water tank, dare to stare at me with your eyes." Are you crazy?"
Mrs. She saw her son constantly scolding Niu Chonglian, and saw Niu Chonglian very tired carrying firewood. She couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Let him put the firewood on the pyre!"
Niu Chonglian listened to his wife's instructions, and walked to the pyre with the firewood. "You ignorant child. My lord is kind-hearted, and he saw that you were pitiful, so he brought you to our house.
If you don't thank you, you shouldn't have smashed my water tank!" Mrs. She came to Xiao Chonglian and reprimanded him severely.
"If you don't want to do it, lose the water tank and get out!" She Dayang took over and deliberately embarrassed Niu Chonglian and said.
Mrs. She glanced at her son and thought, "You told me just now that you wouldn't let people go, why did you drive them away now?"
Niu Chonglian was very aggrieved, crying and said, "Madam, young master, it's really not the water tank I smashed!"
At this time, She Xiucheng rushed over. When Xiao Chonglian saw that the old man was coming, he cried even more than just now. He reluctantly knelt on the ground and swore an oath.
She Xiucheng hurriedly stretched out his hand to pull Xiao Chonglian: "You get up, what's the matter? I'll figure it out slowly." ”
"Master, I didn't smash the water tank, I was wronged!" Xiao Chonglian cried.
She Xiucheng comforted Xiao Chonglian: "Don't cry, child. Let's go to the scene now and see. ”
When they arrived at the scene, Xiao Shige pointed to the water marks on the ground and said, "In the morning, I worked hard to get a full tank of water. Behold the waters flowed all over the ground. If I deliberately smash the tank, will I fill the tank with water?"
She Xiucheng saw the traces of the water flow and felt that what people said was very reasonable.
Xiao Chonglian thought for a while and said, "By the way, someone came to harm me yesterday and drilled a hole in the bottom of the bucket I used." ”
When the lady heard this, she couldn't help but scold: "Tell me, which immoral bastard is such a thing that damages my family!"
"Madam, I have never seen his figure at all, so I dare not talk nonsense. Xiaozhong replied helplessly.
She Dayang heard his mother scolding him, and his expression was very ugly. He was afraid that someone would find out about his uncomfortable look, so he turned his face to the side.
After hearing this, She Xiucheng walked towards the bucket to see what was going on. He turned the buckets upside down and looked at them, and sure enough, there was a newly drilled hole in the bottom of the two buckets, which was blocked by a cloth twist. In this way, She Xiucheng was more convinced of his judgment. The prank was done by the son.
At this time, Mrs. She was still nagging and said: "Children can't lie, if there is a mistake, quickly admit the mistake to the master, and forget it!"
As soon as She Dayang heard his mother's tone soften, he snatched it over and said, "None of us should believe his nonsense, and don't drive him away, because it would be too cheap for him to do that." We can't spare him lightly, at least we have to teach him a hard lesson, so that he can have a good memory. ”
"Let's stop in moderation!" She Xiucheng couldn't bear it anymore and said loudly. After that, She Xiucheng said to Niu Chonglian again: "If the tank is broken, it will be broken! Anyway, someone doesn't want you to carry water." In the future, you can hold as much water as you can in a broken tank! I think you can still hold a small half tank of water, which is enough for you. ”
She Xiucheng turned around and complained to his son and said, "I told you to arrange less work for him." With his age, you let him carry water in such a big bucket. Can he handle it? You're so old, can you?"
"I'm a young master, why do you want to carry water!" She Dayang retorted to his father.
"I think the guy who drilled the barrel shouldn't have drilled a hole under the barrel. If you drill a hole in the middle of the bucket, it will be much easier to hold half a bucket of water. However, the level of smashing the water tank is still high, and the smashed tank can still hold half a tank of water, which is small enough to be used by yourself. The old man said wittily.
She Dayang listened to his father's words, and his heart was very uncomfortable, because he knew that his father had seen through this matter.
"Do you know how difficult it is to get this tank of water? People scoop the bucket full with a scoop of water, and then use a homemade cart to pull the bucket back and scoop it into the tank. Do you know the hardship and tiredness here?" Master She told them and her mother and son with emotion.
When She Dayang heard this, he also felt a little in his heart, and said, "It's not easy, then how did he get the water, how did you know?"
"It's your sister who saw it with her own eyes, you can't be wrong. As soon as the old man finished speaking, he regretted that he had leaked his words, and then he continued, "Needless to say, everyone understands, right? You two don't have to worry about it anymore!"
She Dayang listened to his father's words, felt very bored, and left in a gloomy manner.
Mrs. She listened to the master's words, but the second monk was still confused. She stood there motionless, looking at the expression on the old man's face, still incomprehensible.
"Let's go, I'll tell you what happened when I get back. She Xiucheng said when he saw that his wife hadn't left yet.
Seeing that Mrs. was gone, She Xiucheng turned his head to Xiao Chonglian and said, "Child, I know that you didn't do this anymore. This could have been done by a naughty guy, so don't take it to heart if it has nothing to do with you!"
She Xiucheng saw the changes here and felt that this kid was too capable. So, I cared about Niu Chonglian. He asked how he had eaten in the past few days, and if he could eat enough, and then She Xiucheng walked into the place where Xiao Chonglian was sleeping.
When he found that the ox was uncovered, he said, "I'll let the servant give you the bedding." ”
Niu Chonglian only felt that the old man was very kind from the first time he saw him. Now, hearing what he said, seeing what he did and his attitude of caring about himself, it really moved Xiao Chonglian.
"Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir, for clearing my name. He knelt down for the master.
She Xiucheng touched Xiao Chonglian's head and said, "You work hard, I will treat you well." ”
On the fourth day, She Dayang found that the water tank had been repaired and was filled with water. He looked carefully, and the people were tied with rattan, which was not ugly and could be used.
His father didn't let him carry so much water anymore, but he still filled the tank with water as usual. This kid is too smart, and he is really capable, and he is a little ashamed of his ability. He was the first person to be ashamed of himself.
So, She Dayang gave Niu Chonglian a pair of small wooden buckets to show his humility to others. The occurrence of this incident made the She family have a good impression of Niu Chonglian.
Dayang also does good deeds. However, the wicked are evil after all, and in the future, he still often plays tricks on Xiao Chonglian. Niu Chonglian's life in the She family is so difficult, and his life will be threatened at any time.
Time flies, and ten years have passed in a blink of an eye. On this day, the sun is setting, and the remnant sun is like blood. When night is about to fall, the cattle herdsmen are dressed in the sunset, waving their flutes in their hands.
Who is the shepherd? That's the ox reliant. Now he has grown into a strong and handsome young man. He was no longer driving the three lean cows of ten years ago, but a herd of fat, fat and strong cows.
At this time, Niu Chonglian saw a beautiful young girl standing at the gate of the She family from a distance. He naturally thought that this beauty was most likely the eldest lady of the She family, She Liu'er, who had never shown her face! Yes, she was the eldest lady who had only heard of her name for ten years and had not admired her face.
She Liu'er's name, Niu Chonglian knew it for a long time, and he also knew that she was two years younger than himself. As for why she always doesn't show up? This has always been a big question mark in Niu Chonglian's heart.
