Chapter 98
Lu Yuanzheng’s body was actually stained with people’s lives, usually it was fine, but at this moment, when he got upset, his fierce aura was a bit exposed
Not to mention the second aunt who bore the brunt of the attack, everyone else was a little afraid
Seeing that she had become honest, Lu Yuanzheng shook off her hand, pulled Xu Wen behind himself, and spoke in a faint voice: “People are doing what the heavens are watching! It’s better to do a little less What you do to grandma today, your children will do to you tomorrow!”
The second aunt simply couldn’t listen to this kind of words, and wanted to point at Lu Yuanzheng but was afraid of him, so she pointed her finger in an imaginary circle, pointing to Xu Man’s place and quickly crossed it over, “Don’t you just rely on the fact that there are so many people? You guys wait for me! Who doesn’t have a son or daughter?”
He said, turning his head and leaving
Big Aunt looked at Second Aunt’s back and swallowed in fear, “She must have gone to call someone!”
“She only has one daughter, one son-in-law and one son, why be afraid of her?” The younger aunt looked disgusted
Zhu Meizhen knew what the eldest aunt was concerned about, and also had a bit of a headache, “Her mother’s family is in this village Her mother’s brother is also an unreasonable person”
All of their family were of this kind
Zhu Meizhen had taken her grandmother home in the first place because she didn’t want to get angry with them
Lu Yuanzheng soothed, “Mom, it’s fine I’m here”
Second uncle spoke with a bitter face, “His mother’s family’s brothers are very powerful! He’s a notorious gangster in the commune, hanging out with a few fours and sixes all day long”
“You too, why did you find a daughter-in-law?” Auntie complained to Uncle Two
The second uncle became anxious and stood up, aggravated: “Did I find her? It’s because our family is poor and no one wants to be with me You all thought it was a good thing that she was willing to be with me at the time, but now you’re blaming me for finding her! Now you’re blaming me for finding such a bitch? How often do you see her? I live with her every day What did I say? I’m not even as good as a son-in-law”
Little Aunt immediately stopped talking, is to know the second uncle aggrieved, the Xu family only in many things turn a blind eye, can back off when back off, try not to let him difficult
After the marriage of the second uncle, the family realized that Wang Yulan had actually promised someone else earlier, and only talked about the object at that time, but did not disclose it, and as a result, the man was scared by Wang Yulan’s spiciness, and the relationship did not talk for a few days before they broke up
You should know that at that time, to talk about the object is to run to get married
It was almost the same as being an unmarried couple, waiting for the date to be chosen for the engagement
This Wang Yulan is not only spicy but also bold, and the man kissed the kiss the touch the touch
When the man withdrew from the marriage, the Wang family was able to do it, and the family went to the man’s house to settle the score with him
As a result, when they arrived at the man’s home, they saw Wang Yulan beat the object of the bruises and swelling
Seeing the Wang family will not let go, the male party to fight with their family, but also said that Wang Yulan so spirited girl, who married the family will have to be bad luck in eight lifetimes
The Wang family is afraid of the news back, Wang Yulan really can not get married, which is with the male private, persuade and pay a medical fee to seal the mouth of the male, so that the family as never get along with Wang Yulan
The Wang family is afraid of the night long dream more, the male side of the day and then said leakage
His family again unreasonable also know that people into a tiger, then once said out, Wang Yulan do not want to find objects on the, on the idea of hurrying to Wang Yulan married out
Married far away and do not rest assured, for fear that she will again splash people beat up on the idea of looking for an honest family nearby
Coincidentally, at that time, the second uncle just reached the age of looking for a man, and was looking around for someone to marry
The Wang family came to the door and said they did not want a dowry, but gave a dowry and two old houses for the young couple to put in their wedding room
For the Xu family, this is similar to the pie in the sky
The Xu family in the east of the village, the Wang family in the west of the village, at that time also do not eat pot rice, the two families did not interact, and naturally did not know that Wang Yulan so spirited
The matchmaker received a gift from the Wang family, and when they were talking about marriage, they only talked about Wang Yulan’s good qualities, but didn’t mention that she was so shrewd
The Xu family was kept in the dark and married the second aunt
She was honest for the first few days of her marriage, but it didn’t take long for her to show her true colors, and she often fought with her second uncle
At first, the second uncle was not used to her, and when she was hit hard, she hit back
This can stir up a hornet’s nest, Wang Yulan went home and cried, her mother’s family brothers on the door to beat the second uncle
More often than not, the second uncle was afraid of being beaten, and slowly turned into the current appearance of a wimp
Sometimes know that the second aunt bullying, the Xu family afraid of the second uncle home sad, can not take it personally
So the grandmother followed the Xu Qiushi family life for so many years, the second uncle did not even take a dime alimony
Xu Man also vaguely aware of this, but still angry, said: “again horizontal can not be unreasonable”
Xu Qiushi knocked on the table, opened his mouth, or no sound
Zhu Meizhen and Xu Qiushi couple for many years, this tacit understanding is still there, she when the translator: “Your father said regardless of the second, this account, what do you mean? What do you mean?
Xu Qiushi patted Xu Wen again and pointed to the bill
Xu Wen looked at Xu Qiushi blankly
Zhu Meizhen said, “Your father asked you to take out all the hospital bills to show your uncle and aunts”
Xu Wen answered and went back to his house to bring all the bills
Xu Qiushi didn’t even gesture this time, only looking at Zhu Meizhen
Zhu Meizhen nodded and spoke to her uncles and aunts, “Mother was very sick this last month, and in the middle of the month, the door was resuscitated twice, as you know No matter how much I saved, I still spent more than a thousand dollars This time the gift money also received more than a thousand dollars
But renting a casket and hospitality also cost a portion, all the expenses are recorded here, whoever you want to check the accounts can do so
And the money! As Lao Er said just now, we’ll split the money into 157 dollars for the whole family
Don’t worry, this money doesn’t pass through our hands, don’t be afraid of us coveting it like Lao Er’s family, let’s go directly to the hospital and return it to the other hospital”
Xu Qiushi’s family of course no comment, the second uncle side is obviously not good
Can only look at the great aunt and two small uncle personal
The little uncle just wanted to open his mouth, was the little aunt pinched a hand, the little aunt said: “Big brother and sister-in-law, this money! According to reason, we can also take it After all, it is also mother’s own But you also know that our family this inherited to our eldest uncle, we now call eldest uncle father, have to give him old age We can’t both retire on our own, can we? Then who would be willing to inherit in the future?”
After the young aunt finished speaking, there was silence in the room
After a while, Sang Xiaoqing couldn’t help but speak, “Little Auntie, in theory, I shouldn’t be the one to speak up about your elders’ affairs However, words can’t be said like that, right? Little Uncle was born and raised by his grandmother I only passed it on to Grandpa Tong so that when Grandpa Tong is 100 years old, he can be a filial son It’s not like I’m asking you to take care of Grandpa’s food and drink”
On weekdays, she always excuses her inheritance and doesn’t want to pay for it, but when grandma gives her New Year’s money, she always shouts that she is her own grandson
Sang Xiaoqing is not accustomed to this kind of excuse to inheritance, which side of the benefits of the nature of which to go
The younger aunt is a bit younger, not as brazen as the second aunt, was exposed by Sang Xiaoqing snapped: “I’m not saying we don’t take I’m not saying we won’t take it We can’t share it with our older siblings, right? No matter what, we really are also inherited out Father and mother this house can actually belong to your family We won’t fight over the house, nor will we share Mother’s property, we’ll contribute a hundred dollars, okay?”
Xu Qiushi did not say anything, only looked at the younger uncle, the younger uncle hung his head to avoid Xu Qiushi’s eyes
Where is the grandmother’s family property to be divided?
However, these two rooms are actually belonging to Xu Man’s family, this is a fact
So Zhu Meizhen and the others didn’t say anything, and finally Xu Qiushi nodded
Big Aunt nagged, “I have no reason that I should take it It’s just that ” she let out a long sigh, “They are all siblings, and I’m not afraid of your jokes My situation you all know, the family’s money I say does not count I have to go back and discuss it with that family of ours”
This time no one refuted her
If the second uncle was pitied by the Wang family, then the great aunt had a hard life and married the wrong person
Big Aunt’s father was addicted to alcohol when he was young, and usually looked like a decent person, but when he drank too much, he beat her
Grandpa was still alive at that time, and he went to the door
He kowtowed and swore that he would never do it again
But the next time he drank, he did it again
Later, when Grandpa died, his father became more aggressive and didn’t even apologize for hitting her
The financial power of the family was not in the hands of the great aunt
When Grandma died, her father came to visit and left with a gift of ten dollars
All the people looked at Little Aunt, Little Aunt stood up her chest, “I have no reason I’ll pay for what I should pay for”
Xu Wen looked at Xiao Gu and was more than a little surprised
All of them were in the production team and ate their labor credits, and no one’s family was in a good position to make ends meet
One hundred and fifty-seven dollars, not a life-threatening but also not a small amount
Otherwise, the little aunt would not have bargained
This little aunt, in Xu Man’s impression with the grandmother is the most discordant, always said that the grandmother is biased
Often quarrel with grandma, fight very strong, made several times to sever the mother-daughter relationship
There are a few years in the middle door really do not come and go, the little aunt do not go back to her mother’s home on New Year’s Day
Little Aunt said not out of money Xu asked will not be surprised, so quickly agreed to Xu asked to be surprised
Not only Xu asked, a few other Xu family members are almost the same expression
Xiao Gu was looked at a little embarrassed, mute voice: “all look at me for what? You don’t want me to pay for it? Then I won’t”
Big Aunt shook her head, “You and mother you two ”
Little Aunt let out a long sigh, “When I was young, I didn’t know any better, and I always blamed my mother Since I gave birth to my own child and became a mother, I realized how difficult it is for parents I’ve long regretted it It’s just that I’m used to arguing with my mother, so I can’t change my ways It wasn’t easy for my mother to raise us, so what’s wrong with contributing a hundred dollars or so each? Who isn’t poor? We can’t get rich with this hundred dollars, but we can’t get any poorer with a hundred dollars less”
Little Aunt choked up a little as she said, “A family is only a family if you have a father and a mother You and I used to be able to talk about going back to my mother’s house for Chinese New Year holidays Even if you don’t come to this house for a long time, you can still find familiar things from your childhood But my mother is gone, we will have no home!”
Xiao Gu finished covering her face and whimpering
Xu Qiushi extinguished his cigarette, came over and patted his sister-in-law on the shoulder, and opened his mouth
Zhu Meizhen sniffled and continued to translate: “Your big brother said, in the future, without our mother, this is also your home, when you want to come back to come back!”
Like an aggrieved child, Xiao Gu cried and shook her head, “It’s not the same! It’s not the same!”
Xu Wen understood what she meant by different
No matter how good Xu Qiushi was, she would only be able to say, “I’m going to my brother’s and sister-in-law’s house” instead of “I’m going back to my mother’s house
Xu Man thought to himself, perhaps among his grandmother’s children, the one who is most like his grandmother is his sister-in-law
She’s very clear and open-minded
The big aunt heard, also followed the cry
The hall was suddenly filled with cries
Unlike the kind of weeping that was arranged during the wake, this was the heartfelt sadness of several children who had just lost their mother
Xu Wen and the few of his juniors stood silently in the center of the room, no one advising them
Because know that the elders all need such a farewell
Farewell grandmother, but also farewell to their deepest bonds of one mother
Lu Yuanzheng’s ears twitched and he abruptly turned his head sideways to look out the window
Xu Wen, who was standing beside him, looked out the window along with his line of sight and saw nothing
She asked him in a low voice, “What’s wrong?”
“Someone is coming” Lu Yuanzheng said softly, “There are quite a few”
Xu Wen was stunned and looked out the window again, still seeing nothing
She pricked up her ears and listened carefully for a while before she heard what was vaguely the sound of footsteps coming
The footsteps became clearer and clearer, very disorganized, there should be quite a few people
After a while, the Xu family all heard the commotion and looked out
The hurried footsteps were interspersed with curses
“Surname Xu’s grown capable, how dare he hit my sister?!”
“I heard that they have a soldier in here who is quite fierce Be careful!”
“I’ll be damned! What’s so great about being a soldier? I’ll beat you up with one punch”
Zhu Meizhen frowned and looked worried, “It’s bad! Your second aunt really called someone!”
Big Aunt and Little Aunt also panicked, “What should we do? Those people are not to be messed with!”
Lu Yuanzheng lowered his head and asked Xu, “I’ll go out and take a look”
Saving them from coming in and breaking things in the house
Xu Wen nodded, “You be careful”
Lu Yuanzheng nodded, took off his jacket, handed it to Xu Wen, and headed out
Xu Wen hurriedly followed, “I’ll go with you”
Xu Wen followed to the door and looked out
Xu Wang and Sang Xiaoqing also followed, huddling together at the door
Zhu Meizhen and her elder aunt and younger aunt gathered at the window to look out
Xu Qiushi patted Xu Man’s shoulder and pointed outside
It meant that he was going out as well
Xu Man shook his head, “Dad, you don’t need to go out, there is Lu Yuanzheng and my brother outside is enough”
Xu Qiushi disagreed, thinking that he was an elder who was the head of this family, what was the point of letting his son and son-in-law go out
Xu Man was not in a position to explain, and only said, “You take a look first, and it’s not too late for you to go out after Lu Yuanzheng and the others can’t beat them”
The second uncle originally wanted to take the opportunity to go out and secretly beat the Wang family a few times to get out of anger, heard Xu Man say so, but also had no choice but to stand still in the house
Xu Wen glanced back at Second Uncle, thought for a moment, and let the door open, “Second Uncle, you can go if you want to! Follow behind Lu Yuanzheng and don’t move forward”
Xu Qiushi took the opportunity to follow out as well
Xu asked, “”
The youngest uncle took a look and saw that it wasn’t appropriate for him to be the only man left in the house, and followed him out
Thus, the outside of the door became a battlefield for men, and the inside of the house became a grandstand for women
Sang Xiaoqing, who had a good relationship with Xu Wen, was not too worried about Xu Wen and tugged on the hem of Xu Man’s coat, asking her, “Do you think your brother and the others can beat the Wang family?”
Xu Wen actually didn’t have much confidence
Lu Yuanzheng had never fought in front of her
There were a few times when people came to the island and the guards found the uniforms, and Lu Yuanzheng was just there to wrap things up
Now that he had become the chief officer of the island, there were even fewer times when he needed to do something on his own, and at the very least, Xu Man had never seen him do it
Only occasionally saw him in the schoolyard with his men to fight a few times, but did not see him lose
Shouldn’t that be a problem? Xu Man thought apprehensively
But on his lips, he said with certainty: “Don’t worry! Lu Yuanzheng can do it”
He said this, but his heart was clenched as he watched outside
Lu Yuanzheng plus four men from the Xu family stopped at the door
The second aunt led seven or eight men standing on the opposite side
These seven or eight men, the younger ones were about seventeen or eighteen, the older ones were about forty or fifty years old
They were either tall, strong, or short and thin, and all of them looked fierce
Auntie Two pointed at Lu Yuanzheng and said, “He’s the one who hit me”
The man in the lead, his eyes raised, “You hit my sister?”
Lu Yuanzheng shook his head, “I don’t hit women”
The second aunt’s brother’s face slightly eased a few points, thinking that Lu Yuanzheng was softening, who knew that Lu Yuanzheng added, “Or else he would really beat her up”
“Grass!” Wang Yugang, also known as the second aunt’s brother cursed, without saying a word, waved the stick in his hand towards Lu Yuanzheng
Lu Yuanzheng didn’t even change his expression, seeing that the stick was about to hit him in the face
Xu Man inside the room couldn’t help but clench his fists and called out, “Watch out!”
At the same time outside the house, Lu Yuanzheng moved, he reached out and grabbed the end of the stick and brought it forward, moved his body to the side and at the same time raised his right leg and bent his knee on Wang Yugang’s abdomen who was unsteady in his center of gravity and lunged forward
Only heard Wang Yugang let out a muffled grunt
Lu Yuanzheng’s hand holding the stick folded upwards, and Wang Yugang let go of his hand with a wail
When Wang Yugang’s brothers saw that he had suffered a loss, they shouted “Brothers, go together!”
Lu Yuanzheng turned back, unhurriedly pulling Wang Yugang’s arm toward the direction of their pounce
Wang Yugang, who had never been steady since he pounced on Lu Yuanzheng, swayed like a drunk and crashed into the pile of brothers who pounced to save him
“Aigoo!”
“Aigoo!”
According to the force of action and reaction, the faster they would have been, the stronger Lu Yuanzheng flung Wang Yugang, the more violent and painful the force was when they crashed together
With a few screams, nearly half of them fell
The remaining half reached Lu Yuanzheng smoothly
Lu Yuanzheng raised the wooden stick in his hand and smashed it hard into the stick in the hand of the fastest running gangster at the front
This was a duel of pure strength
The other party screamed and let go of his grip
Lu Yuanzheng lifted his toes and hooked the wooden rolls that he dropped on the ground, and with one hand, he chopped horizontally at the same time to the other two people
Their wooden sticks that smashed at Lu Yuanzheng fell at the same time, but they were one step too slow, and the sharp pain after being hit hard in the abdomen forced them to withdraw their hands
Lu Yuanzheng dropped the wooden sticks, clutched their collars in one hand, and violently pushed them towards the center door, causing them to clash head to head, causing the sound of bones hitting bones to occur
Xu Man’s teeth were a little sore from watching, this one should have hurt a lot
Sang Xiaoqing murmured, “Too powerful!”
In this moment, Wang Yugang had already climbed up from the ground, yelling “I’ll fight you!” Unrelenting, he lunged towards Lu Yuanzheng
This time, Lu Yuanzheng didn’t wait for him to reach him, he estimated the distance was enough and directly lifted his leg and kicked over
The second aunt of her brother looks at least one meter eight, the skeleton is quite big, counting the five big thick kind, often do not need to do it, to that station is very bluffing
But such a look at the strong man, was Lu Yuanzheng a foot stomp directly flew out backwards, and smashed down a man who just climbed up
Two people stacked together, simultaneously stifled a grunt, never able to get up again
At this moment, other than Auntie Two herself, only two of the people she brought with her were still standing, their hands holding the sticks obviously shaking
When Lu Yuanzheng took a step forward, they took a step back
Still humbling each other
“You go first!”
“Why don’t you go on?”
“Useless things!” Auntie Two scolded the two who stepped back, grabbed the stick from one of them, and struck at Lu Yuanzheng
