The Liu family was a warm and harmonious place, but Uncle Wei's family was in complete chaos.
That's not entirely true; two of the chickens can no longer fly.
When Wei Erzhuang returned home, her older brother's family and her father were working in the fields.
Wei Erzhuang grabbed two chickens, chopped them up, plucked their feathers, and gutted them.
When I got home from work, the aroma of chicken in the pot was already quite strong.
Sister-in-law Wei was so angry that she jumped around in a circle. "These are my chickens! These are my chickens, who told you to kill them? You have to pay me back!"
"My elder brother sent Mother to find me because he doesn't want to separate the family, right?"
If you want me back, I'm back right now!
My wife divorced me and didn't give me the children.
My home is gone, but isn't this my home now?
"I've never heard of making such a fuss over eating your own chickens!" Wei Erzhuang said nonchalantly, while adding more firewood to the stove.
Although Dazhuang felt guilty, he wouldn't admit what he had done. "What nonsense are you talking about?"
What does it have to do with me if my mother misses her son?
"Didn't you deliver it?"
"The captain must have remembered what certificate he issued. Should I go and ask again?" Wei Erzhuang looked at the knife lying in the yard, still covered in chicken blood.
Shuhong said that as long as he goes back, she will stop looking for him.
I haven't taken Wei Song to climb the Great Wall yet, and I haven't bought Wei Qiu a dress.
Otherwise, with Wei Dazhuang's blood directly on the knife, it would have been much more satisfying.
Wei Dazhuang also saw Erzhuang's eyes fixed on the knife. He hadn't forgotten what Erzhuang had done! It was precisely because he couldn't swallow this insult that he had urged his mother to go to the capital. Who would have thought his mother would be so useless, failing to keep an eye on him and returning?
Uncle Wei: "Your mother said she went by herself, so she went by herself!"
"So what if I sent it? My mother misses her son, how can I not let her see him!"
"Don't blame everything on me!" Da Zhuang said, backing away.
"Stop saying that useless stuff, Mom tells me to go home, so I'll go home!"
I don't have a wife or children, I eat and drink at home, that's not a problem, right?
The chicken is cooked now, let's eat! Erzhuang opened the pot to take a look.
"Oh dear! Why did you put mushrooms in the stew? Who eats only chicken?" Sister-in-law Wei said, feeling sorry for the food, and went to find some dried mushrooms.
Erzhuang ignored that matter and took a large bowl to serve himself.
"Second Uncle, I want to eat meat too!" said Wei Dazhuang's son, the apple of his grandparents' eye.
"Okay!" Erzhuang filled the large bowl to the brim and then took a few cornbreads.
Erzhuang was using the largest kind of large bowl, and now half of it was gone. Dazhuang was unhappy! "You think you're so tough? Put it down!"
Er Zhuang acted as if he hadn't heard.
They raise a lot of chickens at home, but they haven't been able to bring themselves to kill them. It's a rare treat to eat chicken, and Erzhuang has eaten it all. Dazhuang definitely won't agree to this. He reaches out and grabs Erzhuang.
When Erzhuang had free time, he hung out with some veterans at the roast duck workshop and learned some skills from them.
He kicked Dazhuang to the ground.
Erzhuang went to look at the knife used to kill the chicken, and he really wanted to pick it up.
Dazhuang: "Dad! Aren't you going to do anything about it?"
Uncle Wei suddenly remembered, "Erzhuang, where's your mother?"
“My mother said that she went to Kyoto by herself.”
"If she can go by herself, she can come back by herself!" Erzhuang said nonchalantly.
Uncle Wei was speechless.
When Dazhuang's wife brought over the dried mushrooms, she noticed that there wasn't much chicken left in the pot.
Dazhuang is still covered in dirt, what happened...?
The chicken at Uncle Wei's house smelled delicious tonight. But apart from the children, none of the adults were happy.
Erzhuang ate the chicken with gusto; it was Dazhuang's chicken. He didn't taste the aroma, but he ate it anyway.
As a result, his nephew didn't get enough to eat.
Erzhuang: "It's alright!"
"My second uncle is here!"
The next day at noon, when Dazhuang's wife returned home, the family's three hens had been killed again.
Da Zhuang's wife: "Mother! Mother!"
Who would dare to treat someone like this?
Erzhuang, are you trying to get yourself killed? Why are you vandalizing my house like this?!
Dazhuang: "Dad, aren't you going to do anything about Erzhuang doing this?"
Da Zhuang swung a stick and started hitting, but Er Zhuang was prepared.
When the two brothers started fighting, Uncle Wei didn't dare to help; he was still a little scared of what happened last year.
Erzhuang was physically stronger, and when he fought, he was fearless. Dazhuang was just there to take the beating.
When Dazhuang's wife saw that her husband was at a disadvantage, she stopped watching the commotion.
Da Zhuang's wife never expected that Er Zhuang would lay a hand on her.
The old Erzhuang would never have done that.
Da Zhuang's wife was beaten so badly that she lay on the ground and couldn't get up.
Erzhuang: "It's my eldest nephew who wants to eat meat. As his second uncle, I love him. You all stop nagging me."
Dazhuang was beaten, and he was swearing and using very offensive language.
Erzhuang sneered, "Is this what you call being incompetent? Open your dog eyes and take a good look!" With that, he started smashing things.
Da Zhuang's family had just bought new furniture, and Er Zhuang smashed everything he could find.
Da Zhuang's wife burst into tears, "I can't live like this anymore!"
Erzhuang brought out another half of the chicken. "If that's not enough, then hurry up and get a divorce."
"How wonderful it would be if three bachelors like this family lived together!"
Divorce is a novelty these days.
Erzhuang came back and got a divorce; the news spread throughout the brigade that very day.
Everyone in the brigade knew how Aunt Wei got to Kyoto.
Everyone secretly rejoiced; Da Zhuang's family deserved it.
Erzhuang lived in Sanzhuang's house.
Sanzhuang said he wasn't involved in this; he's just going from village to village collecting things to sell. It's good to earn some pocket money.
Erzhuang believed Sanzhuang's words.
Dazhuang and his wife got up early and went to the fields. They locked the door tightly.
With one swing of the axe, what lock can't be broken?
Erzhuang took out some flour; he knew how to roll out noodles. Although the noodles weren't cut very thin, they were ready to eat after cooking.
After Erzhuang ate the steamed buns, Dazhuang's family still had half a bag of flour left, and Erzhuang carried the rest away.
Why not sell it for money?
Erzhuang doesn't plan to leave, but Liu Shuhong is.
Someone in the village has taken a liking to Ji Chunyang's house and wants to buy it. The price offered is very reasonable. He asked Liu Shuhong to inquire about the house's availability when she returned.
Now that the brigade had arrived at Liu Shuhong's house, the Liu family also learned about what had happened to Uncle Wei's family.
Liu Shuhong was worried when she left. When she passed through Qingshan Brigade, she specifically asked her brother to call Erzhuang out.
Grandma Liu and her son watched the two people from a distance.
Liu Shuhong: "I heard you cooked chicken?"
Your cooking isn't very good. I'll cook for you when you get back to Kyoto.
Erzhuang felt a warmth in his heart!
