Cheng Xiao Kui cried her heart out, looking like a chaste and virtuous woman who had encountered an old rogue and suffered an injustice!
The villagers and the village chief were stunned by Cheng Xiaokui's crying. They looked at each other, then at Zhang Weidong.
For a moment, I didn't know whose side to stand on.
Lin Qiuru followed Xiaolongbao over, and Xiaolongbao had already told her what had happened.
She squeezed through the crowd and saw Cheng Xiao Kui crying her heart out.
She ran over and hugged Cheng Xiao Kui tightly, pointing her finger at Zhang Weidong's nose and cursing, "You son of a bitch! I've never seen such a bad man as you!"
Even if Cheng Xiao Kui had made a million mistakes in the past, Zhang Wei Dong was terribly wrong in what happened today!
It's obvious he's scheming against Cheng Xiao Kui! He's more cunning than everyone else in the whole village!
How could there be such a vicious man?! You have to stand up for Xiao Kui and get justice for her!
A few people in the crowd were talking amongst themselves, "Cheng Xiao Kui isn't a good person either. If she were a good person, no one would dare to mess with her."
"Exactly! Exactly! Why doesn't Zhang Weidong have his eye on the other women in the village?"
Hearing the murmurs, Lin Qiuru immediately pointed at the man's nose and scolded, "Zhao Laosan, you also have daughters, be careful not to bite the hand that feeds you! Your three daughters are being targeted by Zhang Weidong, and they won't be able to get married!"
In the village, if a girl encounters such a thing, she will most likely never be able to get married. It is considered a stain on a girl's reputation, regardless of whether it is her fault or not.
Zhao Laosan immediately became as energetic as if he had been injected with chicken blood. He hurriedly said, "If he dares to covet my daughter, I'll break his legs and make sure he can never walk again!"
"Ha, if he dares to covet my daughter, I'll cripple him!"
Everyone shouted indignantly, saying that some things shouldn't happen to them, but if they did, they wouldn't tolerate it at all.
The village chief waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet. He said, "Stop arguing, stop arguing. Tie Zhang Weidong up first and take him to the village branch office to lock him up."
As for what to do with him… tomorrow, the entire village branch will hold a meeting, followed by a village-wide meeting, to discuss how to handle Zhang Weidong!
As soon as the village chief finished speaking, someone stepped forward and tied Zhang Weidong up with ropes.
Zhang Weidong opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but he really couldn't find any excuse to defend himself for what had happened today.
As he was pushed out of the crowd, he turned back angrily and looked at Cheng Xiao Kui.
He cursed, "Cheng Xiao Kui! I'll never let you go as long as I'm alive!"
His screams were heart-wrenching, as if they could pierce through the pitch-black night.
Cheng Xiao Kui feigned a terrified expression, hiding in Lin Qiu Ru's arms and crying, "Mom! What do I do? What do I do? He won't let me go."
The villagers watching mocked, "They won't let you off the hook, so just marry him."
"That's right, Cheng Xiao Kui, didn't you just get divorced? It's a good thing that men are interested in you."
In their hearts, Cheng Xiaokui was not a good woman. They would not let Zhang Weidong go and hated Cheng Xiaokui to the core!
Lin Qiu spat on the ground and cursed, "You son of a bitch. Why don't you let your daughter marry Zhang Weidong?"
So what if Cheng Xiao Kui got divorced? I'm not afraid to tell you today, if Cheng Xiao Kui doesn't get divorced, she's my daughter-in-law; if she does get divorced, she's my daughter.
"If any of you dare to gossip about my daughter again, this is not over!"
Seeing Lin Qiuru's distress, the village chief hurriedly said, "Auntie, what are you doing? With your physique, who can you fight to the death with?"
We know that Xiao Kui was wronged in today's incident, isn't that enough?
It's getting late, everyone go home and rest. There's a big meeting first thing tomorrow morning!
Seeing that there was no more excitement to be had, the villagers dispersed and went home to sleep, waiting for the general meeting to start early the next morning.
Cheng Xiao Kui was helped to her feet by Lin Qiu Ru. She patted the dirt off her body and wiped away non-existent tears from her face.
She was originally thinking about what to do about the quota for returning to the city, but she didn't expect Zhang Weidong to cause trouble for her.
She helped Lin Qiuru home, with the two children skipping and jumping behind her.
As soon as she entered the yard, she told her two children to close the gate.
She lowered her voice and said to Lin Qiuru, "Mom, we've secured half of the spots to return to the city."
Lin Qiuru sighed and said, "Even if it's only half successful, I'm still not happy. How could Zhang Weidong do such a thing? I feel sorry for you for being wronged."
Her eyes were red, and she looked at Cheng Xiao Kui with heartache.
Cheng Xiao Kui, who had been fine until now, felt as if a needle had pierced her heart, and the pain almost brought tears to her eyes.
The only person in the entire village who cared about her was Lin Qiuru.
She choked back tears as she said, "Mom, I'm fine. He didn't get anything out of him! Really, I'm not lying to you!"
We've had enough of the bad things; from now on, only good things will stay in our family!
Lin Qiuru nodded while wiping away her tears and said, "Yes! From now on, our family will only have good things to do."
Cheng Xiaokui said, "Mom, look what I brought back today!"
She pulled Lin Qiuru into the kitchen and took out the good things from the wicker basket.
The willow basket contained not only the potatoes and sweet potatoes she brought back, but also a piece of meat, flour, and a bottle of oil that she had bought...
Lin Qiuru held the flour as if it were a treasure, and said with emotion, "Back then, it would take a whole year for my family to save up this much flour. It was so hard to make dumplings back then."
This amount of flour is enough for our family to have two meals of dumplings.
Cheng Xiaokui said, "Mom, it's too late to make dumplings today. Let's chop some minced meat and make wontons!"
Lin Qiuru nodded and said, "Yes, yes, making wontons is also delicious. It's too late to make dumplings."
"These wontons! I haven't had them in so many years. The last time was when Muyang took me to the city, and I ate them at a breakfast stall."
How many years ago was that?
Lin Qiuru thought about it carefully, and it must have been when Si Muyang returned home to visit his family for the first time after joining the army.
If you calculate it that way, it's been a full seven or eight years.
The taste of those wontons immediately came to mind, and she couldn't help but swallow.
He tugged at Cheng Xiao Kui's sleeve and asked, "Xiao Kui, what are wontons? Are they tasty?"
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "It's delicious! I guarantee you'll want two after you eat one. If you're hungry, you two can have some steamed egg custard to tide you over. Grandma and I will make you some wontons."
The little dumplings obediently ran into the main room and pulled a tin box out from under the quilt. Inside the tin box was a steamed egg cake. They had hidden all their delicious food so that others wouldn't see it.
He gave one piece to his sister, one piece for himself, and one piece each for Lin Qiuru and Cheng Xiaokui.
The family of four enjoyed a delicious steamed egg cake to fill their stomachs, and then started chopping meat to make wontons.
Cheng Xiao Kui was in charge of chopping the meat, while Lin Qiu Ru kneaded the dough.
The chopping sound should be soft, only light and slow.
Both of them moved quickly and coordinated very well.
As Cheng Xiao Kui chopped away, she was thinking about how to get the remaining 50% of the return-to-city slots.
