Chapter 311 Who is to blame

"You deserve to be humiliated for trying to curry favor. Who told you to go and ask for trouble? You deserve to be humiliated."

When these words reached the ears of Madam Zeng, she remained calm and did not take them seriously.

What she didn't expect was that her husband actually complained to her about this, saying that she shouldn't just follow the crowd.

Mingzhu's whereabouts are still unknown, and no one knows what kind of suffering she is suffering outside. All this is closely related to Xu Zhichun. She is the culprit who harmed Mingzhu!

No one should go to anyone's house to curry favor with her.

Not to mention that she also made me look down on him.

From now on, you are not allowed to have any contact with the Xu family. If you don't curry favor with her, will the Zeng family's business be unable to continue and their lives be impossible?

Madam Zeng Dashao just wanted to sneer. It was obvious that Zeng Mingzhu was vicious and wanted to harm others. Others just used their tricks to prevent her from harming them. How could she become the culprit who harmed her?

Madam Xu was nothing special. Could it be that Zeng Mingzhu was the princess of this region? Everyone had to give in to her and coax her, and whoever she wanted to harm had to stand there and let her do it?

Who can she blame for the situation she is in now? Isn't it all her own fault?

Doesn't he know what the Zeng family's current situation is? He still speaks nonsense like this without feeling disgusted.

I don’t know how many people outside were laughing behind my back.

I don't know whether he really doesn't know or is pretending not to know.

Mrs. Zeng Dashao silently repeated her mother's words, silently repeating "It's all for my son, it's all for my son.", and then she calmed down.

She doesn't bother with idiots.

Xu Zhichun kept his word and held a grand banquet in the village, inviting all the villagers to join in the feast.

Xu Zhichun bought two pigs to slaughter, fifty chickens, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and other seasonings, and produced fifty kilograms of konjac tofu and konjac noodles. Every household spontaneously helped. Each family took whatever vegetables they had, rolled up their sleeves and busily washed, cut and chopped vegetables, talking and laughing as they worked together.

The sound of slaughtering pigs resounded throughout the village. Everyone gathered around to watch, clapping and cheering. The children ran around excitedly, loving to watch but also afraid. They either covered their ears with their hands or covered their eyes, but when they thought about being able to eat delicious food today, they all smiled happily.

The whole village is even more lively than during the Chinese New Year.

With such a great thing, why not show off?

This is the pride of the whole village!

Then you have to show off so much that even the nearby villages know about it.

All the villages were extremely envious.

Mrs. Xu is so generous. The people of Liangjia Village are so blessed. Everyone benefits from it.

The two pigs weighed more than 200 pounds together, and there were 50 chickens. There were only about 300 people in the village, young and old. This meal was no more sumptuous than the Chinese New Year meal.

Although the villagers were envious, no one dared to be so shameless as to come and eat for free.

The people of Liangjia Village would definitely not allow it.

This is the glory of their village and they don’t want to share it with outsiders!

What if the blessings and luck are also taken away by outsiders?

Of course, if Mrs. Xu says to invite someone, then we have to invite them.

Xu Zhichun had no one to invite, saying that this was a grand event for the village and it was not convenient for outsiders to interfere. Everyone was relieved and said that what Mrs. Xu said was absolutely right, that's it!

Others didn't have the qualifications, and didn't dare to think about it. But Han Fengshi from the neighboring Quanshan Village felt that she had the qualifications.

Liang Cui'er and Han Songlian tacitly concealed everything that happened during the three-day return visit from Han Fengshi. It was hard to explain why, but they were afraid that their sister-in-law would know the truth.

Whatever the eldest sister-in-law asked, they answered according to her words.

In fact, their attitude was vague and their speech was hesitant. Anyone who paid a little attention could tell that something was wrong. However, Han Feng had a preconceived notion and thought that it was just as she thought. They also expressed their agreement, so she was just happy and didn't doubt anything at all.

When word spread that Meng Fucheng and Lu Xianling had personally gone to Liangjia Village to deliver the imperial commendation and reward to Xu Zhichun, Han Fengshi became unhappy and complained to Liang Cuier, "What's your eldest cousin's wife thinking? Why didn't she tell us about such a big thing and invite us to join in the fun? If we lived far away, it wouldn't be a big deal, but it's in the next village, just a few steps away."

Liang Cui'er was too guilty to even look at her, so she could only continue to use the method of evasion: "Maybe, maybe I was too busy, so I forgot about it."

"Humph, she can forget such a big thing. I think she looks down on us and doesn't take us seriously."

“S-Shouldn’t be the case.”

"snort."

Han Feng was very dissatisfied and complained a lot, but under Liang Cui'er's deception, she still chose to believe it.

Maybe Xu Zhichun really forgot.

After all, whoever gets such a good thing will be extremely happy.

I was so busy being happy and excited that I didn't have time to think about anything else.

Forget it, I won’t bother with her this time.

After all, we are all relatives.

Even though she thought so, Han Fengshi still felt regretful. She heard that not only Magistrate Lu, County Magistrate Zhao, and Lawyer Shao were here, but also the chancellor from the provincial capital. This might be the only time like this in her life.

She had the opportunity to meet the adults up close and maybe even say a word or two to them. What a pity.

In addition to feeling regretful, Han Fengshi had a lot of opinions about Xu Zhichun, thinking that she was too unkind and too ignorant.

Fortunately, she has some ability, otherwise she would have offended all her relatives.

Who would like to associate with such a person?

It's no wonder Han Fengshi was so confident. It was mainly because Liang Cuier's deception was so effective that she had the illusion that Xu Zhichun was very good to her.

Since Xu Zhichun is so good to Liang Cui'er, he should of course be very good to the Han family as well.

When Han Fengshi heard that Xu Zhichun was going to hold a grand banquet in the village to entertain the whole village to celebrate, she became excited again.

She thought happily, I forgot last time, so I won’t forget this time, right?

She felt that Xu Zhichun should take the initiative to invite her family so that her family would have more face, so she just sat at home waiting to be invited, and did not urge Liang Cuier to go home and tell him.

Liang Cui'er breathed a sigh of relief. She was almost afraid that she would speak. She was eager to go out to work quickly and come back to eat and sleep.

On the day of the feast, Han Fengshi waited and waited, from morning till noon, until Liang Cuier and her husband returned from the fields. She complained anxiously, "Cuier, you are such a jerk! Why are you still out working for so long? Come on, change your clothes, and let's go to Liangjia Village."

"Going to Liangjia Village?"

Liang Cui'er and Han Songlian were stunned.

"Where are you going and what are you doing?"

"Yes, sister-in-law, there is a banquet in Liangjia Village today, and it is not suitable for outsiders to go. If you have anything to do, let's go tomorrow."

"yes."
