Chapter 547 It’s just that
Zhang Dequan did what he said. Under his supervision, Zhang Defu and Tian Caihong went to work in the fields obediently.
Now that he had things to do at home, he had no time to plot against Zhang Juexia.
Zhang Defu never did any work on weekdays and was so tired that he cursed every day.
Tian Caihong was even more so, but the two of them didn't dare to curse loudly, so they had to swallow their anger.
What made Tian Caihong most anxious was that she had no way to go into the city, so she had to go find Wang Xingwang!
The days she spent with Wang Xingwang were her happiest days.
She could see that Wang Xingwang was not short of money, and that she would definitely have no shortage of food and drink if she followed him. Maybe she could even buy a few servants for her family. Then she could be like the wives of the wealthy families in the town, with someone to serve her wherever she went.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt wronged. She put down the things in her hands and sat down on the ground.
Zhang Defu was working in the back dejectedly. When he looked up, he could no longer see Tian Caihong.
Needless to say, she must be slacking off. He was so angry that he put down what he was holding, rushed forward a few steps, and kicked Tian Caihong, "We just did some work, and you're already slacking off.
Why don't you know how to be lazy when eating?"
Tian Caihong was feeling aggrieved, and when she was suddenly kicked, how could she swallow this?
She was like a madman, bending over and rushing towards Zhang Defu, "I asked you to hit me, but I'm lucky enough to be able to work in the fields.
You dare to hit me, Zhang Defu, do you really think I'm easy to bully?
Today I will let you taste my power."
Zhang Defu was knocked to the ground, and the two men started to fight each other. "You bitch, you're really serious."
At this time, most of the families in the village had gone to the fields. When they heard the quarrel, they put down their work and came to watch the fun.
Zhang Dequan was transporting corn home on an oxcart. Seeing a crowd of people gathered around him, he started shouting, "What's going on? Is there too little work in the fields, or what?"
They are all so stupid that they don't hurry up and take advantage of the good weather to bring the grain home."
"Uncle Lizheng, you've come just in time. Uncle Defu and his wife are fighting."
Zhang Dequan was no longer surprised by the fights between Zhang Defu and his wife.
He ignored them and waved his hand to shoo them back to work. "As long as you're not afraid of starving next year, you can just watch the fun."
No one would listen to other words no matter how many times you say them, but everyone heard the words about being hungry.
"The head of the village is right. This kind of excitement can be seen frequently. Let's take advantage of the good weather and quickly collect the grain and return home!"
"That's right. This year is a bumper harvest year. We can only feel at ease if we bring the grain home!"
The crowd dispersed with each other talking.
Zhang Defu and Tian Caihong walked out of the field, one with disheveled hair and the other with blood on his face.
Tian Caihong took Zhang Dequan's hand and asked him to help her make the decision.
Zhang Dequan was so frightened that he quickly took a step back. He started to scold Zhang Defu, "Defu, what can I say to you? You are such a grown-up, if you don't think about yourself, you should at least think about your children!
Dongsheng is growing up soon and will be married in a few years. Who would dare to marry you if you are like this?"
Tian Caihong cried and wiped her tears with her hands, saying, "Brother, I can't live like this anymore. I..."
Zhang Dequan didn't look happy towards Tian Caihong, "If you can't live like this, then don't live like this.
While eating, her face was as smiling as a flower, and she told everyone that she was living a great life.
Why is it that when it comes to work, life becomes unbearable?
Defu, your wife says life is unbearable, what do you think?
Zhang Defu was very upset. When Li Li'niang was alive, he didn't have to take care of these household affairs. Even when Zhang Juexia was not married, she seemed to be able to do the work in the fields well.
Why does she feel so aggrieved when she comes to Tian Caihong?
He said angrily, "Brother is right. Since you feel that life is unbearable, then let's not live together anymore."
After saying this, he went to work in the fields without looking back.
Tian Caihong stomped her feet in anger, "Zhang Defu, you said you wouldn't give up. I'm serious this time. If I don't give up, then I won't give up. Who's afraid of who?"
Tian Caihong left the words behind and walked towards home without looking back.
Zhang Dequan looked at Tian Caihong and shook his head. "What a misfortune for our family! Zhang Defu was blind to marry such a thing."
Then he became worried again and shouted towards the field, "Defu, your wife went home, why didn't you go and call her back.
You can’t handle the work in the fields by yourself!"
Zhang Defu replied in a muffled voice, "Brother, don't bother with her. She'll just make a fuss when it comes to work.
Let her be, whatever she wants."
Zhang Dequan sighed and chased after the ox cart.
Tian Caihong returned home and washed the blood off her face with water. She then went back into the house and looked in the mirror. Looking at her swollen lips, she couldn't help but curse Zhang Defu inwardly, "You bastard, you really wanted to kill me!
Humph, you think I'm just saying I won't live with you anymore? Let me tell you, Zhang Defu, I really won't live with you anymore.
I'm going to the city right now to live a good life."
After scolding Zhang Defu, Tian Caihong changed into clean clothes, but felt something was wrong. She picked up the mirror and looked at herself again. She rummaged through the drawers and found the rouge and powder she had bought several years ago, and applied them on her face in front of the mirror.
After applying it, she moved the mirror back and took a rough look at her whole body before going out with satisfaction.
I went out and touched my pockets, and they were empty.
She went back home, grabbed a handful of copper coins and put them in her pocket. She walked a few steps and then turned back and put all the remaining copper coins and some change in the house on her body.
"Zhang Defu, you forced me to do this. Don't blame me. I haven't had a good life with you for a few days."
Tian Caihong muttered to herself and set off.
She took the village ox cart to go to Jinshui Town first, and then find a horse carriage from Jinshui Town to Shunhe County.
Now every household is busy with the autumn harvest, and few people go to the town. The coachman is also envious of Tian Caihong for being able to go to the town at this time.
"Mother Qiuye is really capable. It's great that her daughter married well!
Everyone is busy harvesting at home, and you are the only one who can go out to town."
Tian Caihong really enjoyed the feeling of being flattered and chatted and laughed with the driver along the way.
"Mother Qiuye, are you going to town to visit your daughter or to do some business?"
"As for me, I'm going to see my daughter first, and then go to Shunhe County to do some business."
Tian Caihong did not lie, she really wanted to find Zhang Qiuye first.
After all, she was going to leave with Wang Xingwang. This was a big deal, and she had to discuss it with her daughter!
