Chapter 490 Splendid Countryside 20
In the end, Pei Yu was taken home by his father by the ears. Pei's mother slammed the door shut, blocking everyone's view.
Ma Daya and her family also entered the yard, and a new round of quarrels broke out.
But those who are just watching the show can only hear the sounds and can’t see anything.
"Wanwan, let's go back too!"
Mrs. Zhou tugged at Lin Wanwan's sleeve, motioning her to go home with her.
"Mom, don't you want to know what happens next?"
She was quite curious whether Ma Daya would divorce Pei Yu.
After all, things have turned out like this, how can we go on living?
"Don't worry, they can't be separated!"
"You may not know that although Ma Daya's family members look powerful, they are not necessarily good people."
"They don't want Ma Daya to really divorce Pei Yu, and they can't tolerate a divorced daughter!"
Mrs. Zhou shook her head. In this world, a daughter who is married off is like water that has been poured out.
No matter how nice the words are, once things really happen, how many families can accept a divorced woman?
However, the young widow at the east end of the village did have some tricks, and Pei Yu was so bewitched that he wanted to abandon his wife and children.
She had to go back and tell her husband not to get involved with that kind of woman.
As Mrs. Zhou walked home, she was still thinking in her heart.
Although she believed that her husband Zhou was not that kind of person, who could blame the young widow for being so pretty?
Although the widow was not much younger than her, she didn't do much work on weekdays, so her skin looked much better than those of them who worked hard all day.
This made the women in the village wary of her.
Lin Wanwan returned home and was about to go back to her old place to continue eating melon seeds.
Then I saw a strange aunt peeking into the yard.
When he saw Mrs. Zhou, his eyes immediately lit up.
"Hey, do you know what happened next?"
Two old women of similar age got together and talked about the Pei family.
"You know?"
They just came back a short while ago, it couldn't be that the Pei family's situation was already over.
"Of course not. I came here after seeing the Ma family leave."
The aunt raised her head proudly, and couldn't help but pull out her hands from her folded hands and gesture twice in the air.
"You don't even know that when the Ma family left, they also took away two bags of grain."
"I didn't see Pei Yu, but I heard someone screaming in pain."
"If I'm not mistaken, Pei Yu must have been beaten by the Ma family."
Having said this, the aunt shrank her neck and glanced towards the door.
"I'm telling you in secret, there's also a big slap mark on Old Man Pei's face."
"Everyone said that Old Man Pei was beaten by his mother-in-law."
"You said this is the case. The younger ones are guilty and the older ones are suffering as a result!"
The aunt sighed, but her eyes were shining, and it was obvious that she was enjoying the melon.
"Every time the Ma family comes, they never fail to bring something back!"
Aunt Zhou pursed her lips. She had some idea about the Pei family as her in-laws.
"That's true!"
My aunt relaxed a little and brushed off the non-existent dust on her sleeves.
"The second son of the Pei family has made a lot of jokes over the years. Only Ma Daya is willing to follow him. If it were someone else, he would have smashed his head long ago."
Mrs. Zhou and the aunt chatted for a long time. Lin Wanwan was just basking in the sun and just listened.
These things in the countryside are a mess.
No one can hide anything that happens in a family, and it will be spread all over the place in just two days.
I guess this uncle surnamed Pei doesn’t dare to go out these two days.
Throwing the remaining melon seeds onto the plate, Lin Wanwan returned to the kitchen, got a basket and a small shovel, and prepared to go out.
"Oh, I didn't notice it just now. Is this your daughter-in-law?"
"He's really handsome, a handsome guy you won't find anywhere else in the area."
The aunt finally noticed Lin Wanwan's presence and slapped her thigh and said.
"Her aunt, please stop praising her."
"I heard that your daughter-in-law is pregnant again. I wonder if she can give your family a grandson this time."
Mrs. Zhou brought the topic back to the topic in a second.
The aunt didn't bother to continue arguing with Lin Wanwan and started talking about her daughter-in-law.
Seeing that the man's gaze had finally shifted away from her, Lin Wanwan quickly snatched up the basket and slipped away.
The enthusiasm of the aunties and sisters in this village is really overwhelming.
I don’t know where Zhou Yuesheng is hanging out, leaving me alone at home. It’s so boring.
Carrying the basket, he soon arrived at Qiao Dali's house.
The door was not closed, so she walked in directly.
"Aunt Qiao, is my eldest sister at home?"
When Aunt Qiao saw Lin Wanwan, she immediately stood up from the small stool she was sitting on.
He wiped his hands, which had just been soaked in water, on his body and brought over a stool.
"Yue Sheng's wife is here, your eldest sister is at home, I'll call her for you right away!"
After taking the medicine prescribed by Lin Wanwan, Aunt Qiao felt much better these two days.
Seeing Lin Wanwan now, he was naturally enthusiastic.
After a while, Zhou Jiaojiao, who was sewing clothes, was called out.
"Sister-in-law, what do you want from me?"
"You're holding a basket. Are you planning to go dig some wild vegetables?"
Although the villagers also grow their own vegetables, most of them have to be stored for winter.
Therefore, in the season when wild vegetables can be found, we will dig more and dry them into dried vegetables.
This way, when the mountain is covered in snow, you can have one more bite to eat.
"That's right. I'm bored at home, so I want to ask you to go out and dig wild vegetables with me."
"Big sister, do you have time?"
After Lin Wanwan asked this, Zhou Jiaojiao had to squeeze out time even if she didn't have time.
She immediately responded with a smile.
"What could possibly happen to me? It just so happens that I've been wanting to go pick wild vegetables for a long time, but my mother-in-law isn't feeling well these days, so I have no one to accompany her."
"Wait a moment, I'll get a basket."
The baskets in the countryside are very big. Zhou Jiaojiao took a basket and a short-bladed sickle.
"Big sister, your sickle is quite nice. Where did you make it? I'll buy one later."
Lin Wanwan looked at the short-bladed sickle in Zhou Jiaojiao's hand and felt that this thing was better than a small shovel.
"It's at Zhou the blacksmith's house in town. If you want, I'll ask your brother-in-law to bring you one next time."
Zhou Jiaojiao quickly cleaned up and took three more cakes from the house.
He handed one piece to Lin Wanwan, gave another piece to Aunt Qiao, and walked out with one piece for himself.
"Don't bother my brother-in-law. I'll go by myself and buy some other things while I'm there."
After hearing what Lin Wanwan said, Zhou Jiaojiao no longer insisted.
The two of them talked and laughed as they arrived at the foot of the mountain.
The place Zhou Yuesheng had brought her to before.
This place is close to a stream and has abundant water resources, so wild vegetables grow very fast.
"The wild vegetables outside have been picked by others. I'll take you inside to find some."
Lin Wanwan followed Zhou Jiaojiao to the weeds where Zhou Yuesheng had brought her before.
"I used to bring my brother here. After we passed this patch of weeds, there was an area with lots of wild vegetables ahead."
It was not until this time that Lin Wanwan realized that the place Zhou Yuesheng brought her to was first discovered by Zhou Jiaojiao.
