She held tightly to the tree branch blocking her path, wanting to take it down the mountain with her.
Xu Wen saw it as a piece of wet firewood; even if he took it back, he wouldn't be able to use it.
But Fu Man'er held on tightly, her short fingers barely able to hold the branch, so Xu Wen had no choice but to carry it on his shoulder, and the group slowly made their way down the mountain.
The mountain in front of the village is at the very back of the village, and the Xu family's house is at the very back of the village. If they want to go back, they have to go through the village.
They hadn't gone far when they saw a large crowd gathered in front of the Chen family's house. Xu Mao, always eager to see what was going on, didn't hesitate to nimbly slip into the crowd to watch the spectacle, even with his load on his back.
This Chen family is Chen Ergou's family.
"Make way, make way!" Xu Mao bumped and jostled his way through the bamboo basket, and soon he was at the very front.

"You brat, get down here right now!" The speaker was Chen Ergou's father, Chen Dagui. He held a bamboo stick in his hand and glared at Chen Ergou with hostility.
Then look at Chen Ergou, who has found a tattered bed sheet somewhere and is draped over his body. He is standing on the altar where the Chen family worships their ancestors.
"I won't get down. Do you think you can just tell me to get down?" Chen Ergou, emboldened by who-knows-where, put one hand on his hip and looked down at the old man jumping up and down with disdain.
The bamboo stick Chen Dagui was holding was short, and he wasn't very tall, so no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't hit Chen Ergou. However, the way he darted around made the onlookers burst into laughter.
The laughter around him made Chen Dagui's face turn red with anger. "Damn it, I can't handle you anymore!" He threw down the bamboo stick and grabbed a bamboo pole leaning against the wall.
"Da Gui, don't hurt the child." That bamboo pole is as thick as a child's arm; it hurts a lot when it hits someone.
Injured? Chen Dagui was furious. He was already angry even though no one was actually injured. He had just finished work and returned home when his son went crazy, claiming to be a god and even hanging out with the ancestral tablets.
He's more like a lunatic; he's going to knock this lunatic down with a single blow.
Chen Ergou's eyes were glazed over, and before he knew it, he was hit by a bamboo pole. In his attempt to avoid it, he kicked someone's memorial tablet off the ground.
With a loud crash, Chen Dagui's curses rang out, "Chen Ergou, you son of a bitch, I'll beat you to death! How could I have given birth to such a monstrous creature? I should have just thrown you into the latrine and drowned you when you were born!"

Chen Dagui is usually a quiet person, but today he really opened everyone's eyes; he doesn't hold back when he starts cursing.
But what happened next was even more eye-opening. Although Chen Ergou was still a child, his behavior was still extremely disrespectful.
"Da Gui, get the child down first, don't offend the ancestors." The ancestral tablets are scattered all over the place, if another one falls down, Chen Da Gui's teeth will probably be crushed.
"Chen Ergou, you get down here!" Chen Dagui picked up the bamboo pole again and stretched it out towards the person on the platform.
At this moment, Chen Ergou had been forced to the very back. He staggered and looked unsteady on his feet. He blinked hard, trying to see what was in front of him clearly.
Only two words echoed in my mind: Lao Tzu
"Who am I?" Chen Ergou picked up the memorial tablet at his feet and held it in his hands, looking at the crowd below with a blank expression.
How dare you call yourself "I"? Chen Dagui couldn't take it anymore. Today, it's either you or me who dies.
"I'm your father, you little brat!" Seeing his fierce expression, the crowd quickly stepped in to stop him, fearing something bad might happen.
Chen Dagui was stopped, but Chen Ergou caused trouble again.

Chen Ergou sat down against the wall, clutching the memorial tablet, and chuckled foolishly. His hands were gesturing wildly in the air, seemingly grasping at something, while he muttered to himself. This bizarre scene sent chills down the spines of the onlookers.
Someone with sharp eyes noticed the memorial tablet Chen Ergou was holding. "Da Gui, isn't that your father's memorial tablet?"
Chen Dagui looked up and saw that it was true. "Chen Ergou, you unfilial descendant, put down your grandfather's memorial tablet and get down here!"
Chen Ergou acted as if he hadn't heard, instead fiddling with the memorial tablet and saying foolishly, "Chen Dagui, do you know who I am?"
"I'm your dad, hehehe."
This is outrageous! Everyone was worried for Chen Ergou because of his audacity.
This time, they didn't stop Chen Dagui; they let him fight. But Chen Ergou's next words sent a chill down Chen Dagui's spine: "Chen Dagui, don't think you're all that now that you're married. I still remember how you wet the bed as a kid and didn't dare tell me, but you stubbornly kept the bed dry."
"And when you were ten, you peeked at a little girl taking a bath, and she hit you with a water ladle like it was a wooden fish."
A commotion broke out in the crowd. They had only come to watch the spectacle, but they hadn't expected to hear about Chen Dagui's embarrassing moments, and they started discussing it amongst themselves.
Chen Dagui was shocked. He had told his father about these things, so how did Chen Ergou know?

He glanced up and saw Chen Ergou squinting, looking quite dazed, and his appearance was somewhat similar to that of his deceased father.
"Chen Dagui, do you know who I am?" Chen Ergou asked again from the platform, his heart pounding with anxiety.
Chen Dagui's legs went weak and he knelt on the ground, tentatively replying, "Father?"
Xu Mao laughed so hard his stomach hurt when he saw this. A father calling his son "Dad"? This Chen family is really bizarre.
Chen Ergou scratched his head impatiently, his face full of confusion. Was he supposed to call him "Dad"? Wasn't he a god? Never mind, let's go down first.
He put the sign aside, took a step forward as if to ascend into the clouds, and then crashed to the ground with a bang, sending dust flying everywhere.
Chen Dagui hadn't recovered from the shock of his father's appearance when Chen Ergou descended from the sky and landed in front of him. He opened his mouth to call out, but then stopped abruptly. Should he call him "Dad" or "Ergou"?
"Quick, call a doctor!"
"Why is Er Gou foaming at the mouth?"
The villagers who had gathered around were carrying people and calling for a doctor. Chen Dagui hurriedly stood up, wanting to follow them into the house, when he caught sight of the memorial tablet lying on the ground.

This is also his father; we have to pick him up.
The previously noisy crowd suddenly dispersed, and Xu Mao turned around to walk back. As soon as he turned around, he saw that his other three brothers were still there. Obviously, they had all seen what had just happened.
The group exchanged glances, laughed, and walked back. This matter would probably be the talk of the village for a while.
Fu Man'er wasn't satisfied with what she was seeing; her little brows were furrowed tightly. "Brother, is the big dog his father's father?"
With so many different fathers, her little head couldn't keep up.
Xu Yi was pleased to see this and, not minding her foolishness, pulled her into his arms. "Don't think about this anymore. Think about how many mushrooms we'll eat tonight."
Once the topic turned to food, Fu Man'er ignored the previous questions and started counting on her fingers how many mushrooms she wanted to eat.
