As soon as Wang Fushun finished speaking, Bai Jiaojiao glanced at Shen Heng.
Shen Heng swallowed hard: "How old are you? Still spouting this nonsense."
Bai Jiaojiao was finally satisfied: "I'm going out to help my sister-in-law cook. Xiao Wang, you stay and eat with us too."
"No, sister-in-law, my mother is waiting for me at home."
After Bai Jiaojiao left, Wang Fushun sat on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) and looked at Shen Heng: "No, so we're just going to leave it at that?"
Shen Heng impatiently licked his back teeth, beckoned to Wang Fushun, signaling him to come closer: "Have Dongzi put something in Zhou Fukun's house..."
Dongzi was a mutual friend of the two. He used to enjoy doing petty theft and had been to the police station many times for it.
As Wang Fushun listened to Shen Heng's plan, his smile grew increasingly lewd. After laughing enough, he said, "This is enough to disgust him. He almost killed you, so we can't let him off easily!"
“You don’t need to worry about the rest,” Shen Heng said smugly. “Your sister-in-law will take care of everything for me.”
"Brother Heng, you've really become a son-in-law now."
He's already living at his father-in-law's house, yet he still expects his wife to go out and stand up for him.
"You don't know anything."
Shen Heng was too lazy to waste his breath arguing with Wang Fushun: "You'll understand once you find a wife." I don't talk to people who don't have wives.
After hearing Shen Heng's words, Wang Fushun did not go to the town. Instead, he went to find Dongzi.
Upon hearing about Shen Heng's plight, Dongzi immediately expressed his duty.
the next day.
Zhou Fukun started having a toothache due to internal heat. When he reached out and touched it, his left cheek was swollen to the sky.
Yesterday, he asked his son to check on things, but it turned out that the poor cripple's mother never left the house. Every few days, she would have someone push her out to sunbathe, making it impossible for anyone to get close to their door.
His in-laws, the village chief, were dismissed and replaced by Li Shiqing, who came to him and told him to be prepared to be implicated because of Shen Heng's accident.
Zhou Fukun was in a bad mood and didn't eat breakfast.
Suddenly, a strange "gaa" came from the courtyard. Zhou Fukun's wife held up a red object and said, "Zhou Fukun, you heartless bastard, whose slut's thing is this that you put in your luggage and cuddled up to sleep on the ship?"
Today, Zhou Fukun's wife put all the dirty clothes he brought back together to wash. She was rummaging through the pockets to make sure there was nothing that could get wet, when she unexpectedly found a pair of women's underwear.
She never wore floral underwear, and this thing had an unpleasant, fishy smell. Zhou Fukun's wife, in a fit of anger, suddenly screamed.
"Are you crazy? This thing isn't mine!"
Zhou Fukun frowned, looking at the things in his wife's hands with disdain.
"If it's not yours, whose is it? Who the hell would put their underwear in your long johns pocket?"
The thought that her husband had been taking other women's things during the past few months on the ship made Zhou Fukun's wife feel extremely uncomfortable, indignant, and wronged, and she was also ashamed for Zhou Fukun.
She cursed, "You shameless bastard!"
"Don't mess with me, let me tell you, at my age, who's going to be with you two? I'm annoyed right now, so go do whatever you need to do."
This is the thing Dongzi secretly slipped into Zhou Fukun's luggage last night, and it even came with a "little gift" that Dongzi had added on it at his own discretion.
Zhou Fukun was genuinely unaware of this matter. Because he was worried about Shen Heng, he didn't take his wife's reaction to heart. Instead, he frowned and gave her a few words of advice.
When Zhou Fukun's wife saw him like this, she got angry immediately. She threw the underwear at Zhou Fukun's face, grabbed the kerosene lamp from the kang (a heated brick bed), and threw it on the ground with a loud "smash".
"Are you ever going to shut up? Have I given you the time of day?"
Zhou Fukun suddenly became furious. He glared at his wife with a red face and thick neck, his eyes bloodshot.
Zhou Fukun's wife thought he was acting out of guilt and embarrassment, so she overturned the entire kang (a heated brick bed), and everything on it crashed down.
"I can't live like this anymore!"
The two were arguing loudly in the main room when their son and daughter-in-law came in. Li Xiulian asked, "Father, what's wrong? Why did you make Mother so angry?"
In the past, Zhou Fukun and his wife had always been very accommodating to their daughter-in-law, Li Xiulian, and had always given her face. Therefore, as soon as Li Xiulian came in, she spoke her mind and even wanted Zhou Fukun to apologize to her mother-in-law.
In the past, Zhou Fukun only asked Li Lide to take care of him because Li Xiulian's father was the village chief. But now Li Lide is nothing. Moreover, the reason Zhou Fukun got into this lawsuit was because Li Lide told him before he went to sea that he should teach Shen Heng a lesson on the ship.
Zhou Fukun now felt that Li Xiulian deserved a beating: "Why are you meddling in your elders' affairs? Do you think I'm trying to upset her? Yanshan, if you can't control your wife, then you should just get a divorce!"
Li Xiulian was scolded harshly by Zhou Fukun. Feeling ashamed, she turned and ran away.
Zhou Yanshan hurried out to chase after him, leaving Zhou Fukun's wife looking at him with a cold smile: "Why are you cursing your daughter-in-law? You want to divorce me and bring that slut into the house, right? Let me tell you, it's impossible! I have my son to back me up. Zhou Fukun, you better remember this, don't even think about letting me serve you a single thing in the future. Go find that vixen!"
"Shut up!"
Zhou Fukun's wife left one behind and resolutely went to bed with the other, which made Zhou Fukun so angry that he felt dizzy.
He was already in a state of turmoil, and now his family was causing him trouble.
Li Xiulian ran out of the house, and Zhou Yanshan followed behind.
Li Xiulian wiped away her tears: "Your father has been looking down on me ever since he came back, just because he was dismissed from his post? Fine, I can't afford to associate with your Zhou family, can't I just go back to my parents' home?"
"Xiulian, Xiulian! I didn't mean that. Father was just angry. We juniors can take a few scoldings."
Zhou Yanshan pulled Li Xiulian aside. He still had feelings for Li Xiulian. Besides, if he sent Li Xiulian home at this critical moment, wouldn't he be gossiped about to death, with people saying that his family was opportunistic and servile?
Li Xiulian shook off Zhou Yanshan's hand. That's one of the advantages of having your parents' home in the same village; it's only a short walk to get back to your parents' home.
Zhou Yanshan didn't want to make a scene at his father-in-law's house, so he forcibly carried Li Xiulian back home. Li Xiulian couldn't bring herself to do it on the way, but she started arguing as soon as they got home, and the house was in complete chaos. Suddenly, a loud "bang" came from Zhou Fukun's kang (heated brick bed).
Li Xiulian's voice stopped abruptly. Seeing Zhou Fukun walk out of the house with a gloomy expression, a sense of fear suddenly flashed through her heart.
To her surprise, Zhou Fukun didn't look at her, but went straight out the door and headed towards the Bai family's house.
Despite her anger, Zhou Fukun's wife had spent her whole life with him, so she immediately said, "Yanshan, go with your father to take a look."
