Chapter 69: Soaking the pig cage
Su Yuexi was a little suspicious.
He vaguely felt that they were following him, but he shook his head. They shouldn't be so bored following a poor boy like him, right?
At this time, I suddenly heard someone shouting: "Come on, hurry up, someone is going to soak the pig cage over there!"
"Oh, there is such a thing? Go and have a look!"
"Oh, I'll have a look too!"
"Let's go , let’s go!”
Su Yuexi saw people swarming towards one place, and she followed them curiously.
I followed the people in front of me all the way to a bridge, which was already crowded with people.
She saw a woman being tied up, a group of people cursing around her, and a bamboo pig cage on the ground.
The woman's face was pale and her eyes were empty as if she had no soul.
Her hair was messy and there were clear fingerprints on her face, as if she had been scratched or beaten.
The people on the side were talking a lot, all looking like they were watching the fun.
"Is this the daughter-in-law of the Chen family?"
"Yes, I heard that after her husband died, she didn't behave like a woman and went around hooking up with wild men from outside."
"Don't you accuse her unjustly?"
"How can this be possible? Fake, her mother-in-law brought someone to arrest her!"
"Oh, the family scandal should not be made public. Her mother-in-law actually came to arrest her daughter-in-law for her adultery?"
"Looking at her charming appearance, you can tell she is a loser. ”
People were gossiping, but no one stepped forward to stop them.
Several men around the woman were planning to stuff the woman into a pig cage.
At this time, a man ran over and shouted: "Stop, you are taking human life lightly! You have no right to lynching!"
The man shouted desperately, and his voice became hoarse.
The movements of those people paused for a moment, and when they saw it was him, they continued again.
Seeing this, the man shouted again: "I am a scholar, I can write a petition against you! You are lynching indiscriminately! You are breaking the law knowingly!"
At this time, the crowd was quiet for a moment, and the only sound left was the man's violent breathing.
Then another buzz of discussion broke out.
"Isn't this the woman's brother-in-law? I heard someone said that he is very fond of his widowed sister-in-law. Is that true?"
"Who says it's not true? Look at him, he looks like his sweetheart is in trouble? His family Isn't that why the old lady wants to kill her eldest daughter-in-law? After all, this is a promising son! "
"Then it should be blamed on the Chen family's son for thinking something he shouldn't have. Why should the daughter-in-law be blamed?"
"Yes, yes, I would say that the Chen family is an honest person. She does all the hard work at home, and I have never seen her having an affair with anyone. Today she was suddenly caught and put in a pig cage. How can you explain this!"
"Well, when you say that, I also think there is something fishy about this matter. The Chen family is indeed an honest and responsible person..."
At this time, a child suddenly squeezed into the crowd and shouted. Heartbreaking cry:
"Mother! You don't want it! Let my mother go!"
The little boy, who was only four or five years old, was kicking and beating in the crowd, but like a cricket shaking a big tree, he could not move these adults. .
An adult picked him up and threw him aside, saying: "Watch him, don't let him come up!"
At this time, an old lady came out of the crowd, with a mean face, and grabbed the child with an evil look in her eyes, and slapped her !
"Cry, cry, cry! Cry, you mother! Look at you, this embarrassing mother! You can only look at her for once!"
The boy looked at her with hatred. He wanted to struggle but couldn't. The old lady's hand was Gripping him like a vice.
He could only struggle wildly and cry loudly: "I don't want it! I don't want it! Let go of my mother! Let go of my mother!"
Seeing that he threatened to sue, the man could not move these people.
He plopped down and knelt down in front of the old lady. Kowtow repeatedly.
"Mother, mother, I will marry the butcher's daughter you asked me to marry. I will marry you immediately. Let these people let my sister-in-law go!"
"I can prove that my sister-in-law is innocent! You can't look at Ran'er at such a young age. My mother is gone! I am your grandson!" When
the little boy saw this, he stopped struggling and cried to the old lady:
"Miscellaneous, please, please spare my mother this time. ! I will be obedient from now on, I will always be obedient! Milk, please!"
Seeing this, the people around started talking again.
"Oh, how pitiful you are."
"This old lady is so cruel!"
"It's okay if you don't mean to be cruel. If your children become disobedient when they get older, don't you have to punish them harshly?"
"I don't agree with what you said. Hey, you gave birth to your children not to make them live well, but to treat them? "
"Hey, I'm talking about the old lady of the Chen family. Who doesn't know how powerful she is? She is a famously tricky old woman in the neighborhood. !"
The old lady nodded with satisfaction when she saw her son and grandson begging her like this.
But the words in his mouth were cold and heartless.
"The boss's wife is having an affair with the poor man. All the uncles in the clan have seen this. She is sure of this pig cage."
"Don't worry, if she doesn't die in the time of a stick of incense, then this matter will Even if it’s over!”
