Chapter 205: Mom, can my dad squat under the fence?
"You, you, you?"
Cui Shufen was so angry that she said the word "you" three times in a row. Then she stomped her feet, covered her heart and turned away.
With a loud bang——
Dust rose from the door frame, showing how much effort Cui Shufen put in to close the door.
Zhao Min came out of the house with the child in his arms with a complicated expression. Zhou Ling said nothing and sat down to continue washing clothes.
"You too, why do you have to say those words to get yourself into trouble?"
Zhou Ling scrubbed the clothes vigorously: "I am happy to do so."
Zhao Min's eyes fell on his wife's left cheek: "Does it hurt?"
Zhou Ling lowered her head and washed clothes. Her tears made her vision blurred, but she still shook her head.
Zhao Min stared at Zhou Ling's shaking shoulders. He squatted down with the child in his arms and held her in his arms.
"Don't cry, I know you feel wronged. It's all my fault that I'm incompetent and let you get beaten..."
If Zhao Min was at the scene, he would never watch his wife being beaten by his mother-in-law.
Unfortunately, he was in the house at that time, and when he heard the noise, Cui Shufen had already slapped Zhou Ling in the face.
At that time, he wanted to take his child out and beat up his mother-in-law, and then kick her out of the house, but he didn't do that in the end.
No matter what, Cui Shufen is Zhou Ling's mother. Even if Zhao Min dislikes his mother-in-law, for the sake of his wife, he cannot drive Cui Shufen away, let alone beat his mother-in-law.
Zhou Ling had cried enough, she wiped her tears, sat up straight and continued to wash clothes.
It was just past ten o'clock when she finished washing the clothes. Zhou Ling asked Zhao Min to look after the children at home while she went to Li's house to check on the situation.
Only Zhang Guifang of the Li family was at home with her five children. Li Baotian and Li Caiyun, father and daughter, had not returned.
After sitting for a while, Zhou Ling went back. Zhang Guifang picked up Li Jingan who was making trouble in her arms and said, "Little ancestor, what do you want?"
Li Jingan caught a cold, and the child was feeling uncomfortable. No matter how he was held, he kept crying and making a fuss.
The little girl pouted and looked at her grandma with tears in her eyes. Zhang Guifang felt distressed again when she saw it.
She carried the child downstairs and walked around the house. Li Jingan was still crying.
Zhou Kexin teased her brother, but it didn't work, so the brothers Li Jingchu and Li Jingen took turns to tease her.
Li Jingan hasn't been coaxed yet, and Zhou Kerou wants to poop over there.
Zhou Kexin took her sister to the toilet and did not come back for a long time. Zhang Guifang was worried and asked Li Jingchu to go out and check on the situation.
After a while, Li Jingchu came back jogging and told Zhang Guifang that Zhou Kerou had fallen into the toilet.
"Why did you fall into the toilet?"
Li Jingchu shook his head, meaning that he didn't know what was going on.
Zhang Guifang asked the two brothers to look after Li Jingan while she hurried out to see what was going on.
Zhou Kexin had already pulled her sister out of the toilet, and Zhou Kerou's lower body was covered with some shit.
Zhang Guifang looked at Zhou Kerou, who was crying with her pants half-pulled up, and she was so angry that she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Grandma, what should I do?"
Zhou Kerou asked Zhang Guifang while crying.
What else can I do? Just wash it!
Zhang Guifang simply cleaned up the feces stuck on Zhou Kerou's body, took the child back to the house, wiped her body with hot water, and changed her clothes.
"Grandma, Gang Pao is crying again."
Zhang Guifang buttoned up the last button of Zhou Kerou's clothes. She didn't even bother to soak the child's changed clothes in water and hurried to the east room.
Zhou Kexin took a look, picked up her sister's clothes with a look of disgust, and went to the outer room, where she soaked the clothes in the washing basin.
After finally coaxing Li Jing'an to sleep, Zhang Guifang came out and saw Zhou Kerou's clothes soaking in the washing basin. She directly praised Zhou Kerou for being sensible.
Zhou Kexin smiled happily, and Zhang Guifang sat down and washed the child's clothes.
Li Baotian and Li Caiyun did not come back until one o'clock in the afternoon. Zhang Guifang asked about the situation on Xu Jianmin's side.
Xu Jianmin's situation is similar to Zhou Yong's. He is not allowed to see anyone.
As for how far the investigation had progressed, Li Baotian asked several people but found out nothing.
When Zhang Guifang heard this, she got angry again. She covered half of her face with one hand and had a severe toothache.
"Mom, does Gang Pao have a fever?"
The child was sleeping on the kang, his little face looking abnormally red.
Zhang Guifang frowned slightly: "You don't have a fever, right? I guess you're hot."
As she said this, she reached out to check Li Jingan's temperature. The child's temperature was normal, and Li Caiyun breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhou Kexin leaned on Li Caiyun: "Mom, when will my dad be back?"
Including today, Zhou Kexin hasn't seen Zhou Yong for three days, and the four siblings have not left home in the past few days.
Li Caiyun hugged Zhou Kexin into her arms: "Do you miss your dad?"
Zhou Kexin nodded, and Li Caiyun's nose felt sore: "Your father will be home in a few days."
"Mom, can my dad come back? My grandpa and grandma told me the other day that my dad wanted to stay in seclusion."
"Your grandparents said this?"
"Yes, Gousheng and Goudan were also there at the time."
Li Caiyun, Zhang Guifang and Li Baotian looked at the three children and asked them to tell the story.
The three children learned it vividly, recounting the conversation between Cui Shufen and Zhou Jiefang word for word.
Li Caiyun was furious when she heard this. Zhang Guifang secretly cursed Cui Shufen and Zhou Jiefang for being inhumane. Li Baotian's face turned pale.
"What else did they say?"
Zhou Kexin shook her head: "That's all. Then my grandparents passed away."
Li Jingchu asked Li Caiyun: "Mom, can my dad squat on the fence?"
"Don't listen to your grandparents' nonsense."
This sentence was said by Zhang Guifang.
Li Baotian sighed: "Zhou Jiefang and his wife are really worthless. Zhou Yong hasn't done anything yet, but look at what they are saying."
Zhang Guifang was so angry that she wanted to find Cui Shufen to have a fight, but she didn't do it in the end.
No matter how bad Cui Shufen and Zhou Jiefang are, they are Zhou Yong's biological parents after all. As his mother-in-law, Zhang Guifang has to consider her son-in-law's feelings.
"No wonder Zhou Gang, Zhou Qiang and Zhou Ling ignored them. With the way they behave, not to mention their children, even their own parents would be in a bad mood..."
Li Baotian glanced at Zhang Guifang who was nagging, and couldn't help interrupting his wife: "Okay, stop talking, the children are here!"
Zhang Guifang opened her mouth and felt that it was indeed inappropriate to say these words in front of the child.
Li Caiyun sighed faintly, and Zhou Kerou pulled her hand and shook it: "Mom, I'm hungry."
Zhang Guifang looked at the time and saw that it was already past two o'clock. She hurried downstairs and said, "Grandma, I'll go cook now."
Zhang Guifang was so busy chatting that she neglected to make dinner.
Li Caiyun stood up and said, "Mom, you and Dad, let me cook. I'll go check on the brigade."
Li Baotian seemed to be hesitant to speak, and after thinking for a while he said, "The disciplinary inspection comrades will not let you see Zhou Yong, and it will be futile for you to go."
Li Caiyun didn't care about so many things. She would never find the solution unless she went to the brigade to check.
Zhang Guifang sighed: "If you want to see it, just go and have a look. You don't have to worry at home!"
Li Caiyun put on a scarf and left home. She met Zhao Chunhua at the gate of the brigade.
"Caiyun, are you here to cooperate with the investigation?"
Li Caiyun looked inside the brigade and said, "Sister-in-law, did the disciplinary inspection comrade come to talk to you?"
Zhao Chunhua nodded. She looked around and saw someone coming over. She lowered her voice and said, "All the staff in the farm have been called here for a talk today..."
