Chapter 14 Son-in-law
Mrs. Lu shook her head, fumbled, picked up the crutch on the ground, followed the sound, and walked to her eldest daughter-in-law.
"Zhao'er is not dead! Sun Mei, you can't do this, you are harming people!"
"Did I harm you?" Sun Mei's voice was sharp, and she poked Lu's shoulder with her finger. "Blind old woman, you are harming others by living."
Mrs. Lu lowered her head and sobbed.
Jiusu grabbed Sun Mei's wrist and threw it away. She looked at the woman who had fallen to the ground and said sternly, "Do you have any conscience to bully an elderly person? You're not concerned about this or that. You should think about how you're going to pay me back in four days!"
Yes! Chen Wu still owes her money!
Find her something to do. She has nothing to do and always wants to cause trouble for others.
"You!" Sun Mei hated the look in her sister-in-law's eyes. She had always been timid, but now, she actually dared to hit her? She ran back to the house in a rage, dug out the silver that Shopkeeper Qi had given her, and stuffed it all into Jiusu's hands. "You're so greedy! I'll return the silver to you, and you can live a good life with Yu Zhong!"
Jiusu counted and said, "Two taels short!"
"Isn't it just two taels? We are all family, is it necessary to calculate so carefully?" Sun Mei glared fiercely, looked at the white silver, and regretted it again.
You shouldn't have given it to me! You should have kept it for your spending.
Forget it, I'll give up a small amount of money to make a big fortune. As long as I keep Jiusu at home, I can get three hundred taels!
Jiusu poured out the silver, stuffed it into his purse, and smiled faintly.
"Yeah, isn't it just two taels of silver? Sister-in-law doesn't mind. You can give me two more taels when you pay me back! I don't mind~"
You don’t feel the pain unless it happens to you.
Just two taels? In the countryside, it could probably support a family of two.
Sun Mei looked outside the courtyard, wondering why they hadn't arrived yet. "It's not like I won't return it to you, so why are you so stingy? Hey! Yu Zhong is here! Blind old woman, stop wasting time and let's go!"
When she saw the man, she pulled Lu away.
Mrs. Lu was too weak to do this. She pleaded humbly, "Sun Mei, that's your brother's wife. How could you do this?"
Zhao'er, Zhao'er!
Come back soon!
She cried out helplessly in her heart.
Yu Zhong was drunk, with many people following him. During the day, he had already announced everywhere that he was going to be a son-in-law.
Still the Chen family.
"Wife, I'm here."
Locking onto his target, he ran towards Jiusu with his hand stretched out.
Jiusu cursed in her heart, but fortunately the man was drunk and was not going in the right direction. Her eyes fell on the village chief who came in a hurry and rushed into the kitchen.
Yu Zhongjian smiled at him, he burped, pointed to the kitchen and laughed.
"Hehe, so you want to have your wedding night in the kitchen..." He staggered and held onto the door frame. Before he even stepped in, he raised his hands in front of him and backed out.
"You, don't be impulsive..." Yu Zhong's voice trembled and sweat broke out on his forehead. At this moment, he was sober.
Jiusu held the kitchen knife, gesturing up and down, his eyes full of coldness.
"If you scream again, I'll chop you into pieces!" He said with gritted teeth, a hint of anger appearing on his face.
After forcing Yu Zhong to retreat, she threw down the kitchen knife and ran out of the yard.
She knelt on the ground pitifully, "Please help me, village chief! I can't survive! I can't survive at all! I was just doing my job at home waiting for my husband, but who knew that someone would be so mean and humiliate me, even drugging me to make me unconscious and ruin my innocence!"
Learn to look weak and aggrieved like those on TV.
It caught everyone off guard.
The village doctor, receiving a signal from the village chief, quickly walked into the house, came out with a wine jug, and shouted, "A drug! It really is a drug!"
Village Chief Chen gritted his teeth, recalling what happened a few days ago, and demanded, "Chen Wu! Sun Mei! You can't sell Jiusu, and now you've come up with this trick. Don't you have any conscience?"
Someone helped Jiusu up.
Jiusu knew that the original owner was a well-behaved person and the villagers did not dislike her, so as long as she showed weakness, everyone would stand by her.
Tears welled up in her eyes and she choked.
"Chen Zhao is out there defending our country, and my elder brother and sister-in-law are trying to force me to marry someone else. It's really disheartening! I'd rather die!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she ran out of the house.
The enthusiastic aunts and sisters quickly grabbed him, and Aunt Wang advised: "Chen Zhaojia, don't be so upset. If you don't want to, no one can force you. We can all testify for you. At worst, we can report it to the police!"
"Yes! Report to the police!"
"Your conscience has really been eaten by a dog. You are so cruel to your own brother and sister-in-law. You either sell them out or sell them out! And you found Yu Zhong, who is a notorious ruffian in the village. It's really a rip-off."
“…”
The people in the village were talking to each other, and their spit gathered into a sea.
Chen Wu's face was dull and he looked at Sun Mei angrily.
"You bitch, it's your idea again! Didn't you say that my sister-in-law agreed to marry Yu Zhong? Why did you drug her? Isn't that shameful? Go, go apologize to my sister-in-law! Otherwise, I'll divorce you!"
The slap was about to come.
Sun Mei quickly hid behind Lu. Want to put the blame on her if something goes wrong? No way!
She shouted, "You agreed to this, otherwise I wouldn't dare. You said that if Yu Zhong came to be your son-in-law, he would help you with the work."
The grain harvest is about to begin, and men who work hard are the backbone of the family.
When Chen Zhao was not around, Chen Wu liked to be lazy and would only harvest the crops when they were about to rot in the fields.
Jiusu was speechless for a moment. So, Yu Zhong is here, are you going to lie down with Chen Wu? She pursed her lips and asked tentatively: "How about, how about the three of you live together?"
Sun Mei's eyes widened. "Are you crazy?"
Jiusu blinked innocently and said seriously, "I'm married, and you're married too. In your eyes, I can serve two husbands, so I guess you can too, right? Big brother thinks his younger brother won't mind, so I guess big brother won't mind his wife having other men, right?"
It sounds okay, but I can't tell what's wrong.
"This..." Chen Wu hesitated for a long time, "Chen Zhao is not at home, he might have died a long time ago. The burden on the family is too heavy. You should find a man who can help lighten the burden on the family."
Jiusu asked back, "Burden? Big brother owes twenty taels from gambling. You want to sell me off, but why don't you sell yourself off? Who is the burden anyway?"
Chen Wu put his hands into his sleeves and lowered his head guiltily.
"Chen Zhao is not here. I am the only son in the family and I have to carry on the family line..."
"Dad! What are you doing?" Chen Baoer rubbed his eyes and looked confusedly at the group of people standing in the yard. Mrs. Lu felt sorry for her grandson and went forward to hug him.
"My dear grandson, it's okay, go back to your room and go to sleep."
Aunt Wang sneered a few times and said sarcastically, "Hey, Chen Wu, you've already carried on the family line, and you two are bullying Jiusu! You even want to come up with such a dirty trick as a live-in son-in-law."
Knowing he was in the wrong, he tiptoed and hid in the crowd.
Anyway, he just wanted to get Jiusu and didn't really want to be a son-in-law. He had no evidence, so he would just sleep there for a night and run away tomorrow.
Jiusu's voice was cold, "Stop!"
Everyone followed her gaze and saw Yu Zhong beside her.
Village Chief Chen scolded him, "If you keep doing this kind of thing every day and I find out about it again, I'll kick you out of the village!"
"Village chief, I was wrong." Yu Zhong put his hands on his stomach, bent his waist, and seemed to be obedient.
But the way he crossed his legs and acted so nonchalantly made Village Chief Chen roll his eyes at him. There was no hope!
Yu Zhong asked with a playful smile: "Is there nothing for me to do now?"
Village Chief Chen gritted his teeth and said, "Get out!"
