Chapter 4: A Bunch of Ungrateful People
Tang Qingshan let her beat him, his face expressionless as always, and he bowed to the others: "Uncle Lao Zhu, please help me invite the clan leader."
Tang Laozhu responded and left.
Mrs. Liu was furious. She jumped half a foot high, howled and beat him for a long time, but he didn't react at all.
Mrs. Liu was beaten until she had no strength left. She sat on the ground and cried for a long time. Tang Qingshan ignored her, and Mrs. Liu finally got scared.
She knew this son.
Tang Qingshan is a man of few words, and you can't get anything out of him even if you hit him with a stick. He is usually very filial and will endure any bullying. But once he makes up his mind, he will be as stubborn as a donkey and will not turn back even if he hits his head against a wall.
But old man Tang had died a long time ago. He had three sons. Tang Erhe went out a few years ago and has not been heard from since. Tang Sanshui has been ill and can't do anything... The entire Tang family really depends on the eldest wife for support.
Granny Liu was so anxious that she couldn't even cry anymore. Suddenly she remembered something, "Qingshan, you shouldn't blame your mother. I really did it for you. Xinbao is such a bad kid. Look, your Erlang and Silang both got into trouble. It was all because of Xinbao! Why can't you figure this out?"
In the past few years, Tang Erlang and Tang Silang had been in trouble one after another. Some were sick, some were lame, and even the villagers around them had been talking about it. But Liu Pozi, the grandmother, didn't think of this "crime" until this time. How little did she take them seriously! Brother Tang Er sneered and said loudly: "Yes! I also think there is a jinx in my family! First my father had an accident in the city, then my mother had a miscarriage and my sister got sick, and then my fourth brother and I also had accidents one after another. Everyone, tell me who this jinx is! !"
Mrs. Liu choked suddenly.
Madam Lin also said loudly: "I just can't live like this anymore! We have worked day and night, but we have raised a bunch of ungrateful people! I am so scared! I am really afraid that if I don't come back in time one day, my daughter will be harmed! I am going to make this clear today, either we split up, or... haha!"
She sneered, looked at Granny Liu, and said word by word: "Tang Sanshui committed a crime back then, and the case in the city is still pending! You don't want to split up the family? Fine! If you don't want to split up the family, I will go to the city and surrender myself, and the whole family will die together!!"
Mrs. Liu was so frightened that she trembled and stared at her with her eyes wide open: "You, you dare!!"
Madam Lin sneered, “Try and see if I dare!”
Mrs. Liu was really anxious and regretted her decision: "Isn't she just a worthless girl?"
Madam Lin said grimly, "That's the flesh and blood of my heart! You cut out my flesh and blood alive, and you still want us to continue to support you? Don't even mention it!!"
When Mrs. Liu thought of how much love the eldest wife had for Xinbao, she suddenly became silent.
Tang Sanshui, who had been pretending to be dead, straightened up in anxiety.
He only wanted to sell off Xinbao, the burden, but never thought of driving away the eldest wife! He doesn't know how to do anything, and without the eldest wife, what will he eat and drink? ?
He was still dreaming of the eldest wife supporting him alone, so how could he watch them run away like this? He hurriedly said, "Mom!"
As soon as he spoke, Xinbao shuddered.
This is completely the body's instinctive reaction.
This Tang Sanshui is really a piece of shit. Every day when Lady Lin goes out, he comes to snatch Naituanzi's food. Not only does he snatch it, he also torments her, covering her and pinching her, and even lifting her legs to step on her like a cat or a dog. She trembles with fear when she sees him.
Except for Madam Lin who was confronting Granny Liu in front, everyone in the Tang family's main house focused their attention on Naituanzi. When she shivered, more than one person immediately asked her, "Xinbao, what's wrong?"
Naituanzi pointed at Tang Sanshui and tried to explain: "He stepped on Xinbao's belly and pinched her neck. Xinbao was scared."
With a bang.
Several people in the big house were shaking with anger. Brother Tang San's eyes turned red. He rushed over, dragged Tang Sanshui over, swung him high, and threw him to the ground.
The third brother, Tang Shichang, is only twelve years old this year, but he is already very tall and has great strength. He can grab Tang Sanshui like it's a game.
Tang Sanshui let out a long scream, and Liu Pozi rushed over screaming.
Tang Shichang was still not satisfied and wanted to fight again, but he was restrained by the villagers. Tang Shichang broke free from the villagers and kicked them hard twice. Then more people came up and finally restrained him.
Amidst the chaos, Tang Qingshan looked at his daughter who could now speak, like a fool.
Everyone's attention is on that side at the moment, and only true relatives will notice that Xinbao can speak.
Second Brother Tang covered Naituanzi's eyes to prevent her from seeing the brutal situation over there, and nodded to his father.
Tang Qingshan had tears in his eyes and his lips trembling. He looked straight at his daughter and forced himself not to speak.
Just at this time, the old patriarch came over in a hurry.
The old patriarch has many sons, four in total, but his grandchildren have never come, and he has been looking forward to it for many years.
Until a few days ago, his daughter-in-law gave birth to a big fat grandson for their family. The old patriarch was very happy at that time and his heart was especially soft. But as soon as he came in, he heard these words said by the baby.
Although Xinbao is a sickly child, he is really good-looking.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Her skin color is like her mother's, as white as milk. Under her soft hair are a pair of big black eyes. She looks even cuter than the dolls in New Year pictures.
When she said this in a sweet and tender voice, the old patriarch immediately thought of his grandson.
How pitiful it is for a baby to not complain when being bullied! I shudder with heartache just thinking about it.
Looking at Tang Sanshui, who looks like a giant mantis and has a big belly due to eating too much shit at a young age, the more he looks at him, the more he dislikes it.
Seeing that everyone had held Tang Shichang back, the old clan leader swung his walking stick and hit Tang Sanshui twice: "You are really amazing! Bullying a baby!!"
"I didn't..." Tang Sanshui was so weak from the pain that he could only say two words. The old clan leader hit him with a stick again. Tang Sanshui didn't dare to lie anymore: "I was just joking..."
The old patriarch said angrily: "A joke of pinching a baby's neck! I have never seen it before!!"
He was hit with a few more sticks. Tang Sanshui was so anxious and in pain that he could hardly breathe.
Mrs. Liu had just gotten up from the ground. When she saw this, she became anxious. She screamed, rushed over, pushed the old patriarch away, and pounced on Tang Sanshui.
The old patriarch was already very old, and was pushed backward by her, but was soon supported by his son and villagers.
The old patriarch was completely furious: "Can't I teach him a lesson?"
Mrs. Liu cried, "Our Sanshui is in poor health and cannot be beaten. It's useless to talk him into words, but why did you resort to violence?" She said in a complaining tone.
The old patriarch patted his chest in anger, but he couldn't argue with an old woman, so he said directly to everyone: "In our Tang family, there has never been such a vicious woman in eight lifetimes! Selling our granddaughter to a brothel! This is not called having no conscience! This is a heart of a snake and a scorpion! Luckily, God opened his eyes and didn't ask you to do it, otherwise, how can the women of our Yutang Village go out to see people!? How can our daughters get married? You have disgraced our ancestors!!"
After he said this, the villagers realized the seriousness of the matter and began to blame her.
The old clan leader continued, "This is no small matter! I dare not let it go easily! Otherwise, I will not be able to face the ancestors! Today, I will make the decision to divorce you, a vicious woman with a scorpion heart, on behalf of Tang Mancang! "
Everyone burst into laughter.
