Chapter 732: Nonsense
Aunt Zhou and Zhao Yuehong had a bad relationship, and she was afraid that she would talk nonsense, so she hurried to stop her.
Even Zhou Liang, who was on the wall, couldn't sit still anymore.
He was afraid that his wife would take the opportunity to bully his mother, so he pretended to jump.
Ye Rou stopped him: "Wait a minute."
"We can't wait any longer. Sister-in-law, you know that Yuehong and my mother don't have a good relationship."
"We've been arguing about the chicks these days. Yuehong doesn't agree with raising chickens at home, and when the chickens get sick, she's afraid they'll get sick too, so she wants my mother to throw the chicks away."
"Now that she finally has such an opportunity, she won't let it go."
Ye Rou asked Wang Honghong to hold Zhou Liang down: "As long as Zhao Yuehong is not stupid, she will not take this opportunity to step on Aunt Zhou."
After all, she and Aunt Zhou are family.
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Yuehong below moved.
Zhao Yuehong has a gentle voice and a thin appearance, which makes her particularly deceptive.
She spoke softly and gently:
"My chickens are indeed sick, but it's not fowl plague. It's normal for everyone to be worried. I'll just dump the dirty water farther away. Mrs. Tang, is this a solution you can accept?"
Zhao Yuehong spoke in a gentle voice. She did not quibble when dealing with problems. Instead, she frankly admitted her mistakes and proposed solutions, which won her a lot of favor.
The onlookers' anger at Aunt Zhou's refusal to admit her wrongdoings subsided a little.
Mrs. Tang frowned slightly.
The purpose of her quarrel today was not to resolve the issue of dumping dirty water, so naturally she was unwilling to give up.
Mrs. Tang rolled her eyes and said, "The dirty water in your house could indeed carry chicken plague. No matter how far you go, this problem will still exist."
Seeing that her family had already given in, but she still refused to let go, Aunt Zhou was so angry that she wanted to scold her: "You fucking ......"
Zhao Yuehong grabbed her and said, "Then tell me, what should we do with my family?"
Mrs. Tang smiled and said, "There's a sewage treatment plant ten kilometers from here. You can send your dirty water to the sewage treatment plant. The treatment plant has disinfection equipment and will definitely treat the dirty water properly."
"The sewage treatment plant ten kilometers away?" Aunt Zhou couldn't stand it any longer. "I think you're just being unreasonable and deliberately making things difficult for us!"
Seeing that Aunt Zhou was indeed anxious, Mrs. Tang smiled slightly and said gently, "Comrade, I don't mean to target your family, but if you think so, I can't help it."
"Bullshit!" Aunt Zhou cursed, "You're clearly targeting my family!"
Even though she was pointed at and scolded, Mrs. Tang did not get angry. She shook her head with great self-control.
"The most important thing now is to solve the problem, not to quarrel. If you are so agitated and can't discuss it properly, I can only contact the street office and ask them to solve the problem."
Seeing that Aunt Zhou still didn't know she was wrong and was even cursing without manners, the onlookers spoke out and supported Mrs. Tang in contacting the street office.
Some even shouted, "You uncultured people, get out of our alley!"
"That's right, get out!"
The crowd was so angry that they shouted at Aunt Zhou and her family to move out.
No matter how powerful Aunt Zhou is, she can't win over so many people.
After the man died, the strong woman who raised three children alone showed a confused expression on her face for the first time.
"My chickens really don't have fowl plague. They pour water down the drain, so why can't I?"
No matter how smart Zhao Yuehong was, she came from a small mountain village after all. She had never seen such a situation before and panicked. She took a few steps back, fearing that she would hurt the baby in her belly.
Seeing his wife and mother being bullied like this, Zhou Liang could no longer bear it.
He was afraid that Ye Rou would stop him, so he said first: "Sister-in-law, don't stop me!"
Ye Rou was speechless: "I'm not trying to stop you, but it won't solve the problem if you continue like this."
Zhou Liang is not good at speaking, and he can’t win an argument with his mother and wife, let alone someone of a higher status like Mrs. Tang.
Ye Rou gave him some advice: "Just go down and do this..."
Wang Honghong was far away and didn't hear clearly what his sister-in-law came up with. She was curious and wanted to ask, but Ye Rou told him to wait and see.
Seeing that the voices calling for their family to get out were getting louder and louder, Zhao Yuehong and Aunt Zhou unconsciously leaned against each other, with the same panic and helplessness on their faces.
Suddenly, the door was opened from the inside.
Zhou Liang came out and pretended to be stupid, "Why is it so noisy?"
When they saw Zhou Liang come out, Aunt Zhou and Zhao Yuehong seemed to have found their backbone.
"husband--"
"Son!"
Zhou Liang continued to play dumb and said, "Why do you look like that? Are you still worried about our chicks? I've seen a doctor, and he said it's just a cold. It'll be fine after taking some medicine. It's fine!"
"Really?" Aunt Zhou was delighted: "That's great."
When her son arrived, she immediately started to show off and shouted, "You all heard me say that my chicks don't have fowl plague!"
"Who said our chicks have fowl plague? They just caught a cold. Mom, stop making a fuss. Okay, I'm hungry. Let's go home." Zhou Liang said in a nonchalant tone and was about to take the children home.
Although Aunt Zhou was unwilling, she finally listened to her son and turned around to go home.
"Wait a minute!" Mrs. Tang called out to stop the person.
Zhou Liang pretended to be stupid and turned around: "You called me?"
Mrs. Tang nodded: "This matter has not been resolved today."
Zhou Liang pretended to be confused and asked, "What's the matter?"
Zhao Yuehong briefly explained the whole story.
"Mrs. Tang said our chickens have fowl plague, so she won't let us pour water down the drain and wants us to send all our water to the sewage treatment plant."
"So that's what's going on." Zhou Liang said loudly, "Mrs. Tang, my chicks don't have fowl plague. You don't have to worry. Everyone, go home now."
When they heard it wasn't chicken plague, the onlookers suddenly felt that there was nothing fun to watch.
Mrs. Tang shook her head and said, "That's not how it works. Just because you say it's not fowl plague, does it mean it's not fowl plague? What if it's fowl plague, and you're pretending not to have it just to save yourself the trouble of disposing of the sewage?"
"Do you have any evidence that your chickens don't have fowl plague?"
Zhou Liang sighed. "Whether my chickens get fowl plague or not is none of your business. There's no need for me to show you any evidence."
"But I understand your concerns."
Zhou Liang took a step forward and said loudly, "How about this, Mrs. Tang? If you're really worried, then you can handle my sewage."
Mrs. Tang frowned and was about to retort, but Zhou Liang spoke first:
"After all, according to what you said, even if my family agreed to send the sewage to the treatment plant, there is a possibility that they just said it for the sake of convenience and never sent it to the plant. You won't be at ease then."
"How about this? I'll put a big vat in front of your house and pour our sewage into it. As for how to deal with it, it's up to you to decide. I won't be involved. How about that?"
When Mrs. Tang heard that her family was asked to dispose of the sewage, she immediately frowned and said, "Why should I deal with your sewage?"
"Because you didn't believe me when I told you my chicks didn't have fowl plague."
Zhou Liang said innocently, "Why are you so anxious? I'm just discussing the matter at hand."
"This is for the health of the people in this alley, Mrs. Tang, you can't be so selfish."
Hearing him say that he was selfish, Mrs. Tang's tone was full of disbelief: "I am selfish? It's obviously your family's problem!"
Zhou Liang shrugged. "You can't be both healthy and bothered, Mrs. Tang."
"I know you're definitely not that kind of person. After all, you're an elite who came back from Country M. You're more cultured than farmers like us. I'll go buy a big jar soon."
The words were well-reasoned and also included some sarcasm.
Using magic to defeat magic left Wang Honghong stunned.
Is this still the dumb Zhou Liang he knows?
He gave Ye Rou a thumbs up and praised her from the bottom of his heart:
"Sister-in-law, you are awesome."
Ye Rou was lying on the wall, watching the show happily. She caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of her eye, her gaze fixed on him, and she frowned slightly.
