Most of the villagers gathered in the threshing ground before one o'clock.
When Wang Biyun heard the village chief Zhao Youtian notify the meeting, she didn't want to come, but was frightened by the words "one person absent will be deducted ten centimeters".
These days, Wang Biyun has become the biggest laughing stock in Zhaojiagou Village. Young wives and grown men alike, whenever they talk about Wang Biyun confessing her love to a city man outside the old secretary's house, they all look mischievous.
Because of this incident, Wang Biyun's husband, Gu Tiezhu, was so angry that he beat her up several times. Last night, when the couple were having sex, Gu Tiezhu asked Wang Biyun: Is he better or that city girl? Is he better or that city girl?
Wang Biyun hesitated, unable to put her finger on the matter. In Wang Biyun's heart, Wen Yulun was like the bright moon in the sky. How could a piece of mud like Gutiezhu compare to him? Furthermore, the relationship between Wang Biyun and Wen Yulong was purely her own wishful thinking. There was nothing going on between them, so what was there to compare?
Seeing his wife's shy appearance, Gutiezhu felt as angry as he liked her in the past. After finishing, Gutiezhu rolled off Wang Biyun, slapped her several times, and kicked her off the bed.
It was a shame for Gu Tiezhu that the woman he had slept in the same bed with for so many years was thinking about another man.
Wang Biyun huddled on the ground and cried all night, while Gu Tiezhu was fast asleep, not caring about her life or death. At dawn, Wang Biyun's two children saw her and told Tiezhu's mother what had happened.
Tiezhu's mother scolded him harshly. In a married life, the key was to compromise. Tiezhu's wife wasn't having an affair with the city dweller, and Tiezhu was angry at her. He'd beaten her and scolded her, but why would he keep harping on about it?
In front of Tiezhu's mother, Gu Tiezhu promised to live a good life with Wang Biyun in the future. That matter was over.
When Wang Biyun arrived at the threshing ground, she had a long scarf wrapped around her head. The weather was beautiful, the sun shining brightly in the sky, and Wang Biyun's outfit gave the women in Zhaojiagou a lot of gossip.
Wang Biyun emptied her mind, trying not to overhear the women's conversations. Words like "flirtatious," "bitch," and "I wouldn't even look down on you even if you gave me money" kept drilling into Wang Biyun's ears.
Wang Biyun stared at the two large slap marks on her face and sat on the stool with her back straight. No matter what, she did not regret anything she did that day. Brother Yulun finally understood her feelings for him, didn't he?
On the podium made of two tables, Zhao Qingshan talked to the villagers about the seriousness of stealing collective property. At the end, Zhao Qingshan called on the villagers to be vigilant and not let a bad guy go.
In this era, the masses have sharp eyes and noble thoughts. When they heard that someone went to Daqing Mountain to steal trees, the villagers' voices of discussion became louder and louder.
"Old Secretary, don't worry! Even if there is no rice to cook, no one in our village will do such a thing." Aunt Gu's eldest son He Chunsheng was the first to stand up and express his determination.
"That's right! No one in our village would do such a thing as chopping off heads." Lao Shitou's wife also said.
"Old Secretary, we in Zhaojiagou are very simple people! No one would do such a thing!" Sister Yulan poked her man Zhao Baoping beside her with her hand, and Zhao Baoping quickly stood up to express his opinion.
Seeing the villagers' meeting was effective, Zhao Qingshan nodded with satisfaction and asked Zhao Youtian to adjourn the meeting. The purpose of Zhao Qingshan holding this meeting was to make everyone more vigilant and not make mistakes that would lead to regret.
Since the goal has been achieved, Zhao Qingshan didn't say much.
After the meeting, Gutiezhu walked home with a frown on his face, and he didn't even hear Aunt Gu calling him several times.
"Tiezhu, Tiezhu!" Aunt Gu called out a few more times. A few days ago, Tiezhu's mother fell ill in bed, and Aunt Gu went to see her several times. Aunt Gu had some family matters these days and hadn't had time to visit Tiezhu. I wonder if Tiezhu's mother's illness has improved?
Taking advantage of the village meeting, Aunt Gu wanted to ask Tiezhu a question. Tiezhu had been having a tough time lately. His mother was ill and bedridden, his wife, Wang Biyun, was distracted all day, and Tiezhu was a stubborn child, always swinging his fists at his wife. Aunt Gu watched with trepidation.
"Aunt." Aunt Gu shouted very loudly. This time, Gu Tiezhu heard it, stopped in a hurry, turned around and waited for Aunt Gu.
"Tiezhu! Is your mother feeling better? Don't be so angry. A harmonious family is the key to success!" Aunt Gu held Gu Tiezhu's hand and persuaded him.
Ever since Tiezhu's wife, Wang Biyun, loudly declared her love for Wen Yulun outside Zhao Qingshan's courtyard that day, Gu Tiezhu had completely lost face in Zhaojiagou. These days, whenever Gu Tiezhu went out, he was met with sympathetic glances from the villagers.
The people of Zhaojiagou are simple and honest, and for decades, there hasn't been a person like Wang Biyun. She chases men before they get married, and even after they get married and have children, she still can't forget them. She even rips off a woman's face and uses it as the sole of her shoe.
The Wang Biyun incident affected more than just Wang Biyun. Even her niece was teased when she went out. Some women even made malicious speculations, such as "Will my niece look like my aunt?" Wang Biyun's sister-in-law hated Wang Biyun so much that she ran to Gu Tiezhu's house and scolded her, telling her not to return to her parents' home and that there was no such shameless aunt in their Wang family.
Because of this, Gu Tiezhu severely beat Wang Biyun several times. At one point, Wang Biyun was nearly unable to get out of bed. With his mother ill and his wife being a bit of a jerk, Aunt Gu persuaded Gu Tiezhu to put Wang Biyun's issue aside and work together to cure Aunt Gu's illness.
"Aunt, I know, I... I just can't swallow this!" Gu Tiezhu had nothing to hide from Aunt Gu. Wang Biyun had been married to the Gu family for seven years, and Gu Tiezhu believed that he had never done her any wrong. The family was poor, and even if there was only one bowl of rice, Gu Tiezhu would give half to Wang Biyun, and he and his mother would eat the other half.
But, Wang Biyun is such a hard-hearted person! She has been married to him for so many years, but she still thinks about another man. If that man really loves Wang Biyun, Gu Tiezhu would have nothing to say. However, that man doesn't even know her, Wang Biyun, yet Wang Biyun shamelessly approaches him. Isn't this treating him, Gu Tiezhu, like a living turtle?
When he thought of these messed up things, Gutiezhu couldn't contain his anger. If he didn't beat up such a woman, he would be too suffocated.
"Tiezhu! Listen to your aunt's advice and live a good life. Otherwise, what will happen to Xingxing and Xiaofang?" Aunt Gu used Gu Tiezhu's children to persuade him. The children were still young. If Gu Tiezhu was determined to divorce Wang Biyun, the children would be too pitiful without a mother.
"Yeah." Gutiezhu finally nodded, thinking of his two lovely children. Indeed, life had to go on. He felt uncomfortable constantly harping on Wang Biyun's faults, and his mother felt even more uncomfortable. Gutiezhu understood that his mother's illness was largely caused by Wang Biyun's anger. Only by getting his mother to relax and eat more healthy foods could she recover.
