Chapter 37 Goodbye, Friend
"If you're still not clear about life at such an old age, stop talking." Yu Yaoyang stood up.
When Aunt Six saw him stand up, she felt less confident and her voice wasn't as arrogant as before.
"Yangzi, I am thinking about you. You have seen how good Rutang is at talking. She is not gentle and virtuous at all. If you marry a daughter-in-law like her, your family will be in turmoil in the future."
"She is not gentle and virtuous at all, but she is better than you. You only have two words for "being moved by the scene."
"What?" Aunt Liu was confused. She hadn't even finished elementary school, so she couldn't understand the idioms Yu Yaoyang said. She was thinking in her heart that the cultural level of this educated youth's son was different.
"Touch and life."
"Puff!" Ru Tang couldn't hold it back. In the future, he should not be brought to such serious occasions for quarrels. He would turn into a happy comedian in a minute. It would be very difficult to stay serious if such a person was around.
"What does 'chusheng' mean...ah, you are scolding me?!" Aunt Liu finally reacted and was furious.
"Yangzi, how can you talk to your elders like that? We are elders too, regardless of age!" Seeing that his mother-in-law had suffered a loss, Chen Cai wanted to regain the moral high ground.
"I'm talking to her, why are you in such a hurry? Are you two..." Yu Yaoyang's eyes moved back and forth between Chen Cai and Aunt Liu. With just one glance, the normal conversation was cast with an indescribable color.
The villagers who were watching around gasped again. Compared to Ru Tangniang's divorce, the big news was that Chen Cai and his mother-in-law were in love with each other!
"You're talking nonsense!" Chen Cai's old face turned red, and he fell into Yu Yaoyang's "self-proven trap".
Hao Mei was stunned. She had been an honest person all her life and was always bullied by others. She had never seen such an overwhelming advantage as Yu Yaoyang. This quarrel was too smooth!
"If nothing happened to you two, and my Rutang is unhappy with this old witch, why are you coming out to support her? Is the aunt here? Come and take a look at the past that the uncle and the in-laws have to talk about!"
Yu Yaoyang used his invincible verbal skills during quarrels, and single-handedly overwhelmed the crowd, putting out the entire group of opponents.
"I'll think of a couplet for you guys - well, I got it! The first line is about a sixty-year-old man and dry wood igniting a raging fire. The second line is about a five-year-old woman who has been suffering from a long drought and is met with a cold rain. The horizontal scroll is..."
What Yu Yaoyang actually wanted to say was, have a safe trip.
But he saw his future mother-in-law's stunned look from the corner of his eye, and felt that it was inappropriate for him to drive openly, so he said to Rutang: "You have a high level of education, you can write a horizontal banner!"
"Uh, the passionate years?" Ru Tang asked without hesitation.
"Good!" Someone in the crowd shouted "good" and clapped their hands.
Regardless of whether this melon is real or fake, this couplet is beautifully written.
If the Chen family were not still around, someone would probably praise the Rutang couple as a perfect match made in heaven.
"You, you, you... Gang!" Aunt Liu was so angry that she couldn't breathe. She covered her chest and took two steps back. She fell into her son's arms.
I don't know if he was really dizzy from anger or he was pretending to be dizzy because he felt embarrassed.
Sixth Aunt's son also knew that today's incident was too ugly and he was too embarrassed to continue to pester her, so he carried his mother on his back and left.
Yu Yaoyang pulled out a handkerchief from Rutang's pocket and waved it enthusiastically at the Chen family: "Why don't you two get together and become closer relatives? Uncle, you see she is gone, so I will give you another couplet? The first line: The old man's desires are insatiable, the second line: The old lady's hunger and thirst are insatiable, and the horizontal scroll is - Rutang, come!"
Ru Tang was caught off guard by her name and was startled. She used her lifelong literary accomplishments and said, "The most beautiful thing is the sunset?"
After saying this, Rutang covered her mouth and said, "Oh my god, I was led astray by that street kid. She said some wicked words!"
Yu Yaoyang nodded in satisfaction. She was indeed the wife he had chosen. Her literary accomplishment was impeccable.
"Just wait and see!" The old man was so angry at the man's nonsensical couplet that he almost fainted. He wanted to fight him but couldn't. If he cursed him, the man's tongue was better than his, so he could only leave a harsh word and turn around and walk away.
When they came, the big group was in great glory, but when they left, they were in disgrace and looked like nothing.
"This...this..." The village chief remained speechless for a long time.
After being distracted by Yu Yaoyang, he forgot all about the important business and his attention was focused on "whether Chen Cai had any secret affairs with his mother-in-law".
Not only the village chief is like this, but also the neighbors around him.
Yu Yaoyang won a great victory. He stood with his hands on his hips and whistled proudly to the old man and others. As soon as the melody came out, several children who were watching the fun sang together.
"Ah, goodbye, my friend! Ah, goodbye, my friend~ Ah, goodbye, goodbye~"
Although there is only one TV in the village, every household has a radio.
This song is the most popular nowadays. It is always played on the radio and all the kids can sing it. It has almost become a conditioned reflex.
"Emma..." Rutang covered her forehead.
She was really serious about confronting her bad relative, but Yu Yaoyang, the cheerful comedian, was so eloquent that he ended the fight in just a few words and turned the situation around to something funny.
How could she not be happy being with someone with this kind of personality?
In the cheerful atmosphere accompanied by Yu Yaoyang's whistle and the collective chorus of the naughty children in the village, the old man and others left with gloomy faces and hurried steps, fearing that if they were slower, Yu Yaoyang would slap them with couplets or spread obscene rumors or something like that. They couldn't afford to offend him!
"Second Uncle, you saw what happened today. Our family has never done anything to bully others," said Rutang.
The village chief's gaze slid towards Yu Yaoyang who was still whistling, as if asking, you call this not bullying?
The village chief put himself into the role of Chen Cai and felt his blood pressure rising every minute. He was so angry that he almost died.
As the saying goes, don't mess with the street scoundrel Yu Yaoyang. Not only is he good at fighting, but he's also bad at talking.
Ru Tang pretended not to notice the village chief's troubled look and continued, "They broke the glass, destroyed the vegetable fields, threatened us, made my mother unable to stay in the village, and called me and my mother bitches. Everyone heard all this."
"Uh..." The village chief was speechless again. What she said seemed to be correct. These were indeed done by the Chen family, but it seemed that something was not right.
"You guys are still saying that my mother is an adulterer!" A voice pierced through the crowd. It turned out that Sixth Aunt's daughter had not left yet and was eavesdropping secretly, trying to be a traitor.
"We did say it, but we don't know whether your mother did it or not." Rutang answered very cleverly, and with just one sentence he put out the anger of Sixth Aunt's daughter.
"Oh, there are still people who are looking for trouble? What, you also want me to give you a couplet... Damn, don't go!" Yu Yaoyang's literary and artistic bacteria had nowhere to ferment, so he could only watch his sixth aunt's daughter run away in frustration.
