Yang Family
Dog Egg knelt on the ground, his head almost buried in the earth.
The man in his early twenties was flushed, wishing he could disappear into the ground. Words like "ungrateful wretch" and "heartless" pierced his heart like thorns. Boss Yang had indeed died because of him.
He had no way to refute it.
"Auntie, I'm sorry, this money is all my family has left. I'll sell more next time and give it to you, okay?" The man's face was full of pleading. His grandfather was sick, and he wanted to go to the hospital to treat him.
"I don't want your money, I want my husband's life! Give me back my husband's life!" Yang's mother tore at Gou Dan's chest, her eyes filled with tears. She pounded on Gou Dan, shouting for him to pay with his life.
Gou Dan closed his eyes and let Yang's mother pat him.
"Oh, they're making a ruckus again."
Suddenly, a pleasant female voice rang out.
Dog Egg looked up and saw a large and a small figure sitting on the wall that stood upright at his fingertips.
The little guy was holding a peach shortbread, his face covered in crumbs from eating it.
The woman was cracking sunflower seeds in her hand, her face full of mockery. She put a sunflower seed in her mouth and spat out the black shell in an instant. There were already many sunflower seed shells on the ground, indicating that she had been sitting there for a long time.
Dog Egg knows her.
Yunzhou's new wife.
He wished he could disappear into a hole.
Another person witnessed his disheveled state.
When Yang's mother saw Qiao Wanyue, she was furious. "Qiao Wanyue, get out of here! This is my family's business. What does it have to do with you?"
Yang's mother grabbed a large broom and tried to chase them away.
Qiao Wanyue,
“This wall belongs to my family. If you lay a hand on it, I’ll go to the brigade leader’s house and tell him you’re trying to damage my wall.”
Yang's mother paused.
He gritted his teeth and spat out a mouthful of saliva.
She cracked sunflower seeds and said to Gou Dan on the ground, "A man kneels to heaven and earth, kneels to his parents, and kneeling to other people will shorten his lifespan. Why don't you get up quickly? Do you want your Aunt Yang to die sooner?"
Dog Egg suddenly raised his head.
His eyes were filled with confusion.
Yang's mother gritted her teeth; Qiao Wanyue, that troublemaker, was her nemesis.
Dog Egg's knees trembled, and he knelt on the ground in a daze.
Yang's mother was even more furious, "Who are you trying to scare by kneeling on the ground?"
"Stand up."
Dog Egg stood up shakily.
He handed over the two yuan in his hand, saying, "Auntie."
Yang's mother slapped the money away, saying, "Get out! I don't want your money, you pay with your life!"
Qiao Wanyue said "Oh" and responded softly, "She thinks it's not enough."
Dog Egg's hand froze.
Is it okay to say that?
Yang's mother took a deep breath and started yelling at Qiao Wanyue, "I think it's too little. My husband lost his life to save him. Who does he think he's fooling with those two dollars? I don't want the money, I want my husband's life."
Qiao Wanyue said, "Then go down and keep him company."
"I still have some DDT at home, do you want me to give it to you?"
Old Mrs. Yang, sitting in the courtyard, had a furrowed brow.
"Oh, and there's this old codger too. Come on, let's go together. Since you miss your son and husband, go find them in the underworld. Why torture a child? Two dollars isn't enough? You've really had your fill of good life."
