"Xiu Lan, why are you unhappy today? Did I do something wrong?"
"No, Brother Changlei, you didn't do anything wrong. It was my parents who scolded me last night. Yesterday, Jiayu's boyfriend took her to the county and bought a lot of things when she came back. My parents were jealous and said that I shouldn't have rejected the marriage in the city. But I like you, Brother Changlei, and for you, I don't want to marry in the county either."
Song Jiayu: I can meet you two even if I come to the mountain to look for a snuff bottle!
Song Jiayu: As expected of my cousin, she has good PUA skills and directly transferred the pressure to Sun Changlei.
Sure enough, Sun Changlei accepted the pressure and said, "It's my fault. I'm not as good as the workers in the county. But Xiulan, don't be unhappy. I will find a way."
Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Song Xiulan also smiled brightly, "Thank you, Brother Changlei, you are so kind to me."
The Sun family paid the betrothal money and also provided thirty legs at home. Such conditions were the best in the village. Those who were poorer could bring the bride home with just a bag of rice without even having a wedding banquet.
Sun Changlei couldn't ask his family for money, so he had to find a way on his own. After work every day, he went to the mountains to set traps, and used a slingshot to find rabbit holes based on feces. He caught a few pheasants and a nest of wild rabbits. He went to the Dongming Commune black market to exchange some money and tickets, and took Song Xiulan to Dongming Commune to buy a lot of things.
Of course, this is all later.
At this time, Song Jiayu was looking at the couple being affectionate with each other and had no mood to look for the snuff bottle, so she went down the mountain to the secret base of the Boy Scouts.
"Sister, Aunt Zhang and Aunt Wang had a quarrel." This was the tip-off from Song Beiwang, the God of Ears.
Song Jiayu's eyes lit up, "Let's go and take a look."
In the fields, all the villagers who went to work today gathered together, and the two people in the center were Aunt Zhang and Aunt Wang. Song Jiayu finally squeezed in. The excitement inside reached its climax. The two aunts scratched each other's hair, and their faces and necks were covered with bloody marks. Their hands were restrained by each other, but they still had their feet. You kick me and I dodge, I kick you and you dodge. A martial arts drama officially began.
Aunt Zhang: "I told you not to say bad things about my daughter and ruin Cuihua's reputation. If I don't tear a layer of skin off your face today, I will take your surname."
Aunt Wang: "Come on! Do you think I'm afraid of you? I'm going to say something! I'm going to piss you off! I was just going to say what's wrong with my son, but you've been saying he's nothing good."
Aunt Zhang: "I'll beat you to death!"
Aunt Wang: "Look at your arrogant tone! I'll make you bald!"
The old village chief and the team leader arrived and forcibly separated Aunt Zhang and Aunt Wang. Before they could ask, Song Jiayu interrupted and asked on their behalf: "Aunt Zhang, Aunt Wang, what deep hatred do you two have that has caused you to fight like this? With the team leader and the village chief here, they can definitely help you. Tell us now so that we can all judge for ourselves."
Aunt Zhang: "I was working weeding today. I was doing my job well when I heard from afar that the Wang family was badmouthing Cuihua in front of others. They said Cuihua was too ambitious and would become an old maid who couldn't get married sooner or later. The Li and Hu families heard it. She ruined Cuihua's reputation like this. How can I get married in the future? She wants Cuihua to die."
Song Jiayu: "Aunt Wang, this is wrong. How can you say such bad things about lesbians? Reputation is so important to lesbians!"
Aunt Wang also cried out, "I did this because the Zhang family bullied my son first. My son Dazhu is nineteen years old. I asked a matchmaker to go to the Zhang family and I fell in love with Cuihua from their family. Unexpectedly, in front of me, the Zhang family said yes, but privately, they found fault with my son Dazhu in every way. Cuihua from their family even said that my son was ugly, hunchbacked, stupid and not smart, and that he might as well die if he lived like this. My son Dazhu was devastated and almost went to the river to think about it. I only have this one son. Don't you think it's the Zhang family's fault?"
Song Jiayu nodded again: "Aunt Zhang, this is what your Cuihua did wrong. Even if you can't see it, you can't point at others and say those hurtful words."
Aunt Zhang refused to admit this. Her daughter Cuihua was a big face. She had finally found someone to meet her, but this girl had just pouted her down. With her reputation ruined, no one wanted her anymore. "Do you have any evidence? My daughter Cuihua never said these things."
Song Jiayu: "Aunt Wang, both the witness and the evidence are fine."
Aunt Wang: "Yes, my nephew from my mother's side is only eight years old this year. He went out with Dazhu at that time. This child will never lie."
Aunt Zhang: "You must have told the child and asked him to say it, otherwise how could the child remember so many words."
Song Jiayu: "Then does Aunt Zhang have any evidence to prove that Aunt Wang's evidence is false?"
Seeing that the matter had not been resolved yet and was becoming increasingly chaotic, the old village chief glanced at Song Jiayu. This kid was a troublemaker, out to cause trouble. He said, "Alright, stop talking. We'll deal with this tonight. You two are fighting and making a scene during working hours, affecting the entire village. The scorekeeper will take note and deduct two work points from these two. Everyone else, disperse and get back to work."
To the old village chief, the trivial matters among villagers were not a big deal. What was a big deal was the impact on the production of the entire village. "And Song Jiayu, you're getting married soon. Go home and stay home. Don't cause trouble."
Song Jiayu stuck out her tongue and only ate half of the melon. The old village chief was too disrespectful.
[Complete the task of mediating between Aunt Zhang and Aunt Wang, successfully check in Li Lan and Wang Danniu, and you will be rewarded with two adult hens (that can cluck and lay eggs).]
I learned about the follow-up of this incident through Song Beiwang in the evening.
It was confirmed that Zhang Cuihua had indeed said those hurtful words to Wang Dazhu.
The old village chief finally sentenced Aunt Zhang and Aunt Wang to apologize to each other, and Aunt Zhang needed to compensate Aunt Wang with five eggs.
The minor dispute was resolved, but Zhang Cuihua's reputation was ruined.
Song Beiwang: "Sister, Daniu said his sister always mentions our brother-in-law's name at home, you better be careful."
"ha--"
Song Jiayu raised her head and pointed at her beautiful face: "Do you think I need to be careful of Zhang Cuihua because of my beauty?"
Song Beiwang lowered his head: "...I was wrong."
——
"Guihua, why are you still here taking care of your grandson? Your family has spent a lot of money to marry off your youngest son. Changlei took Song Jiaxiulan to Dongming Commune and I wonder how many good things he bought back." An auntie who was not on good terms with the team leader's wife was making sarcastic remarks outside the door. She didn't believe that Liu Guihua could give so many good things to the Song family. It must be Sun Changlei's own decision. Now the Sun family is in for a big show.
