Chapter 177 Go and curse me
Looking at the two quilts on the kang, Old Man Chen couldn't help but frown.
Could it be that the old woman hid roast chicken, roast duck, and braised pork elbow in there?
That shouldn’t be the case. There’s a smell of stinky feet in the quilt. How can I eat delicious food if I put it in there?
She was curious and suddenly opened the quilt, but found half a half-eaten pancake stuffed inside. She immediately lost her temper.
"Is this what you are talking about, old lady?"
Old Mrs. Chen nodded and smiled, "Yes, that's it. You must have never eaten it!"
Although Old Man Chen was disappointed, he couldn't help but smack his lips. "This sesame seed cake is not cheap. It costs two cents each. How can I afford to buy this?"
Old Mrs. Chen sighed, "When the sesame cake sellers in the village came to sell me some, I could exchange them for eggs to satisfy my craving. But later, the sesame cake sellers found out that the eggs I sold were all rotten, so they would avoid me. Even if we met them face to face, they would not return the eggs to me."
"You are so wicked! The peddler is going from street to street to make a few pennies, and you give him rotten eggs?"
"You think I'm willing to do that?" Old Lady Chen rolled her eyes at him. "The third child wasn't home, so I saved the eggs the hens laid. But it was so hot in the summer, and they started to go bad. I couldn't let them go to waste, so I exchanged them for some sesame seed buns. It's a small loss at least."
"Where did this half-baked pancake come from? It's not spoiled, is it?"
"How could it be bad? This is what the third brother secretly gave me when he came back last time. I couldn't bear to eat it, so I left half for you. I wanted you to taste it. As the saying goes, the more wine you drink, the better the sesame cakes will be. Hurry and eat it!"
"Okay, I'll try what the pancake tastes like." Old man Chen couldn't help but take a bite. It was like biting into a lump of iron, and he immediately grimaced in pain. "Why is this thing so hard? I can't bite it!"
Old Mrs. Chen couldn't help laughing out loud, "You silly thing, I've left this pancake in my bed for more than ten days, it's definitely hard to bite, just break off a little and eat it slowly."
"Since you left it for me, why didn't you take it out earlier? How can it still be eaten after being left for so long?" Although Old Man Chen was a little disgusted, he still couldn't help but break off a piece, put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully, frowning and swallowing it hard.
"This pancake doesn't taste right. It makes my throat choke when I eat it!"
"If there's anything wrong with the taste, just eat yours."
"No, I can't enjoy this stuff, let's just drink!" Old man Chen felt the smell of quilt in his mouth, which made him feel sick and almost vomited. He casually put the half-eaten pancake on the kang table.
Old Mrs. Chen shook her head and smiled indifferently, "You really don't have the blessing of a mouth. If you don't eat it, I will."
The two of them talked and drank until they had finished half a bottle of wine, then they lay down to rest...
When Old Lady Chen opened her eyes again, it was already daybreak. She hurriedly put on her shoes and went out to the fields. "Old man, hurry up, get up quickly."
Old man Chen rubbed his dizzy head and sat up, "Old woman, what are you doing in such a hurry?"
"I think you are really confused. You think that once Mr. Fan succeeds, everything will be settled. But it is not that simple.
Don't forget, this little girl has a lot of evil intentions. If you don't catch her in the act, she won't admit it even if you beat her to death.
If that happens, and she acts like a rogue and denies that Fan Tong slept with her, we won't have any evidence to prove anything, so how can we possibly accuse that damn girl? "
"Yes, yes, you're right. Why didn't I think about that?" Old Man Chen nodded vigorously. "Old woman, what do you think we should do about this?"
Old Lady Chen's eyes turned cold, and a sinister sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"As the saying goes, spit can kill. We have to make a scene, make a big noise, let everyone know, let the whole village know that the damn girl is cheating on her husband, let her not be able to hold her head up, and in order to survive, she will agree to this marriage."
"What's wrong with your brain, old woman? Why are you so cunning? Your trick is so cruel and decisive!"
Old man Chen scratched his head in some embarrassment as he spoke.
"That's the truth, but if we really make a big deal out of this, Mr. Fan will be embarrassed too. Will he be willing to do that?"
Old Lady Chen snorted coldly, "Mr. Fan is a wealthy man in Qingshui Town. He has done countless shameless things in the past. How can he still care about these things?"
Old Man Chen smiled knowingly, "Yes, what you said makes sense. The poorer people are, the more they care about face, and the richer people are, the more shameless they are. Why would Master Fan care about such a thing?"
"Okay, stop talking nonsense and clean up quickly. If that damn girl wakes up, this will be difficult to handle!"
"Then let's go quickly." Old man Chen hurried out of the room, stretched his neck to look at the yard next door, and heard rhythmic sounds coming from inside.
His eyes lit up and he couldn't help but tut-tut a few times, "This rich man Fan is quite a character. He hasn't rested yet in the early morning, and he's not afraid of dying on a woman..."
Old Lady Chen's heart was relieved. She laughed coldly, "That's good. We can catch her in the act and ruin this damn girl's reputation. Let's see how she can argue."
"So what should we do next?"
"You should start cursing at the top of your lungs right now. The more disgusting and nasty the curse, the better. Try to curse all the men in our village in half an incense stick of time. Then we can go into the house and catch them in the act."
"No way. If I shout, everyone in the room will hear me. How can we catch him in the act?"
"This is not easy to handle." Old Mrs. Chen said as she dragged Old Man Chen out of the yard, "Go outside and curse."
Old man Chen was stunned. "Old woman, you know I've never scolded anyone before. I don't think I can do this. You used to be a master of scolding. Why don't you do it?"
Old Mrs. Chen curled her lips and glared at him, a little angry. "Just scold me if I ask you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
"Okay, then I'll try." Old man Chen was a little embarrassed to speak, and whispered, "Hurry up and someone come, something happened in our family, come and see the fun!..."
"Stop, stop, stop, shut up!" Old Mrs. Chen frowned in dissatisfaction. "What the hell are you talking about? Can you curse a little harder?"
"How can you be so cruel? I can't do that!"
"You're so dumb! You need someone to teach you how to curse. Just curse whatever you want. If you really have no words, just shout out the words you usually curse at me in your mind."
"Old woman, you are such a joker. When have I ever scolded you? Come on, come on!"
"Okay, stop pretending and go and scold me."
"Okay, I'll go right away." Old man Chen came to the gate, gathered his emotions for a while, and then thought of the grievances he had suffered in the past, and started cursing at the top of his voice.
"You damned bitch, you disrespectful bitch, don't think a tiger can't show its might. You treat me like a sick cat. If you really make me angry, I will pull out your tendons, peel off your skin, beat you until your teeth are all over the floor, and make you kneel down and kowtow to me. If you dare to be so rebellious again, I will divorce you, you damned old woman..."
