These days, people in the town have almost finished their shopping, so Su Wei and Shen Yan closed their stalls early and went shopping at the market.
I bought two chickens, some meat, eggs, flour, etc.
Xiaowu's ox cart started running between the two ends a few days ago. Many people who bought New Year's goods and couldn't take them back would ride the ox cart because it was not far and each person only paid one cent, so everyone was happy to do it.
Chen Yan put the things on the cart. He and Su Wei planned to walk back. The ox cart was crowded and the experience was not very good.
"Wow, this is really profitable, buying so many things."
The familiar voice made Su Wei look up, and sure enough, he saw Aunt Hu San and her daughter, Hu's mother, and Zhang Erya and her daughter...
These people have a good relationship and often get together to say bad things about Su Wei.
Su Wei couldn't understand why these people were so malicious towards him?
Su Wei didn't want to pay attention, but Chen Yan glanced at them.
Hu's mother added, "This is truly... not enough to have defrauded our fellow villagers, now they're starting to defraud outsiders."
Zhang's mother continued, "That's right. She dresses like a vixen all day long. I don't know what dirty things she does. I wonder how she makes the money..."
All their words were directed at Su Wei. She was just jealous of Su Wei's ability to make money.
Before Su Wei could resist, Chen Yan suddenly stepped forward and slapped Zhang's mother in the face.
This sudden change left everyone stunned.
Mother Zhang covered her face and looked at Chen Yan in disbelief: "You...you dare to hit me?"
Mother Hu also recovered from her shock and stared at Chen Yan. Just as she was about to speak, Chen Yan said, "Whoever wants to be slapped, just say it."
Although Hu's mother hated these two people, she didn't want to be slapped.
The ox cart stopped and everyone looked at the scene in disbelief.
Chen Yan glanced at Xiao Wu and said, "Are you still not leaving? You don't have to go back before dark."
Xiao Wu came back to his senses, looked at Chen Yan in surprise, and drove the ox cart forward.
The oxcart was not moving fast. Mother Zhang covered her face and cried, cursing Chen Yan for a bad death. Mother Hu comforted her: "This Chen Yan must be crazy."
Zhang Erya and Hu Taohua looked at each other, not daring to speak. It was Hu Taohua who whispered, "It must be Su Wei who instigated this. Chen Yan was never like this before."
Yes, that must be it.
People always like to pick on the weak.
Hu's mother began to call Su Wei a vixen and shameless.
Su Wei didn't hear it, she was just surprised and even a little touched.
It has been said since ancient times that it is uncultured for a man to hit a woman, but she felt that Chen Yan's slap was quite satisfying.
that is…
"If you hit her like this, she won't let it go."
Chen Yan said, "Even if I don't hit her, she won't let it go."
That's true.
Su Wei ignored the previous provocations, but Zhang's mother and Hu's mother became even more aggressive.
Sometimes, just because you don’t make others angry doesn’t mean that others won’t make you angry.
A good man is often bullied, and a good horse is often ridden.
Chen Yan no longer wanted to be a horse that could be bullied at will.
When they arrived at the village, everyone avoided Chen Yan and his wife. Chen Yan ignored them and went home with Su Wei, carrying two chickens.
Not long after, Zhang's mother arrived with her people.
Her two sons and Zhang's father. Zhang's father was a well-known honest man. He was usually quiet and his two sons were a bit dull. But when they heard that Zhang's mother was beaten, Zhang's mother cried and said that Chen Yan was instigated by Su Wei to beat people, so the father and sons came to find Chen Yan to argue.
Zhang's mother danced the most happily.
"Mr. Shen, don't think you can get away with hiding. You must give an explanation today, otherwise I won't forgive you."
Because she had someone to back her up, Zhang's mother felt more confident. She stood at the door of the Shen family and started cursing. Soon, a lot of people gathered around to watch.
Everyone had the same reaction.
Zhang's mother was throwing a tantrum, and no one believed that Chen Yan would hit someone, especially a woman.
Seeing that no one believed her, Zhang's mother showed her swollen cheeks. Normally, a face won't turn red after being slapped, unless the slap was really hard with all her strength.
Even after seeing the injuries, everyone still didn't believe it.
Why would Chen Yan hit someone?
He was the most honest child from childhood to adulthood. When he was bullied as a child, he didn't say anything. When he was locked up by Hu Wen and stayed with a corpse for a whole night, he kept silent and didn't even mention Hu Wen...
He didn't say anything even though the Shen family robbed the house and kicked him and his son out.
How could such an honest child hit someone? But Zhang's mother swore it was a crime, so everyone thought that Zhang's mother must have deserved a beating and pushed the honest child into a corner...
Amidst Zhang's mother's abuse and everyone's speculation, Chen Yan pushed open the door and came out, holding two chickens. He completely ignored the Zhang family and the villagers, and with a knife, he chopped off the chicken's heads...
Before anyone could react, he raised his knife again and chopped off another chicken.
Looking at the blood on the ground and the headless chicken still moving, the air seemed to freeze at that moment.
Chen Yan held the knife and looked up at the Zhang family: "Is there something wrong?"
Father Zhang swallowed, frightened by the ferocity on Chen Yan's face.
He was from a younger age, and he knew that Chen Yan was the most impulsive and reckless person at his age, doing things without considering the consequences...
If he does this...
Father Zhang looked at the motionless chicken on the ground and said, "Shen's boy, my wife said you hit her..."
If Chen Yan doesn't admit it...never mind, he beat his wife anyway, so just assume it was him who did it...
"I hit him." Chen Yan came over with a knife, frightening Zhang's father so much that he took a step back. Zhang's mother stepped forward and said, "Mr. Chen, do you think I'm afraid of you just because you have a knife? If you dare, go ahead and chop my neck."
