Chapter 54 Old Lady Zhang disrupts
the situation. "Oh, you said you were dating after you were caught. You're the daughter-in-law of the Zhang family. How come no one in our village knew about the matchmaking? And your young couple are quite capable. They went into the woods after they had agreed to get married?"
A second-rate guy from the village came out to stir up trouble. He was already 26 years old and was a well-known bachelor in the village.
He would flirt with other girls in the village whenever he had the chance, and the young girls in the village would avoid him when they saw him.
Of course, he was also greedy for Liu Qiaoqiao. He didn't expect that Liu Qiaoqiao, who seemed difficult to approach, was actually such a person in private, but it was a good deal for Zhang Wen, so he would be lying if he said he wasn't jealous.
But the next moment, a cane suddenly hit him on the head.
"Hey, which bastard hit me?"
"Why, I can't beat you? Why do you, a lazy guy who can't even find a wife, mind my business? Why, are you jealous of my grandson?"
"Don't think I don't know what you did. It was you who was in the bushes behind the cowshed with Si Xi's wife the night before yesterday, right?"
A dark-skinned man who looked honest was watching the fun with a smile, but suddenly a melon fell on his head.
"Si Xi, listen to my explanation. Old Lady Zhang slandered me, but I didn't do that."
Looking at his frightened daughter-in-law in front of him, the man named Sixi had no idea whether the matter was true or not, so he slapped her in the face immediately.
"Okay, you said you had a stomachache and went to the toilet, but ended up going to the bullpen with a weird guy? I was wondering why it took so long to go to the toilet."
With a "bang", the woman was knocked to the ground.
"You bastard, you are such a disgrace, I will beat you to death!"
When Mrs. Zhang saw that things were getting chaotic here, she didn't stop but pointed out several more.
In an instant, several parts of the crowd became chaotic, and the impact became more and more serious, until more than a dozen households and dozens of people were fighting each other. The scene was simply outrageous.
Zhang Ze had already retreated to the sidelines to protect his family members who were watching the show: "Tsk tsk tsk, this old lady is still as powerful as ever!"
"With the situation messed up like this, Zhang Wen and Liu Qiaoqiao are fine, but their marriage is set."
Old Lady Zhang is his biological grandmother, but in private he always calls her Old Lady Zhang.
Zhang Huihong's eyes were filled with worry: "Aze, I heard that you were the one who took the lead in arresting people?"
Zhang Ze nodded: "I did accidentally discover that Liu Qiaoqiao had done something indecent with someone in the grove, but I didn't expect the person to be Zhang Wen."
"Oh!" Zhang Huihong sighed, and then her eyes gradually became firm.
If Old Lady Zhang and her two sisters-in-law came to cause trouble, she would call her brothers and sisters to come and support them.
No matter what, she will protect her child.
When Zhang Ze heard her sigh, he knew what she was thinking, so he comforted her, "Mom, don't think too much. The captain and the others should all know that Qing He likes Liu Qiaoqiao."
"Now that this situation has occurred, the captain's family will definitely be grateful to us and will take better care of us in the future."
"If there is any problem, the captain will definitely favor our family. Just go to the captain if you have any problem."
After knowing that the man was Zhang Wen, Zhang Ze was a little surprised, but he didn't take it to heart.
No one from his grandparents' family has ever been successful. He plans to move to the county town next year to make it easier for him to go out to sea. The contacts between the two families will become less and less, and the captain will also favor his own family. There is nothing to be afraid of.
Besides, Liu Qiaoqiao is not a quiet woman. That family will probably have a lot of fun later. He loves to watch these dramas! Zhang Huihong felt a little relieved when she heard him say that.
At this moment, a gunshot suddenly rang out, and the villagers were all startled. The dozen or so families that were fighting each other suddenly became quiet.
"Stop it!" At some point, a shotgun appeared in Zhang Shouping's hand.
He was also a little troubled by the current situation. He didn't expect that Old Mrs. Zhang, who basically never went out, knew so much about what was happening in the village.
But today the situation was indeed disrupted. If he paraded Liu Qiaoqiao and Zhang Wen through the streets, it would not just be the two of them that would be paraded.
By then, their Qinghe Village will definitely be famous in Yuewan County. The young men in the village will no longer be able to marry a wife from other villages, and the girls will be regarded as fickle and unable to get married.
Rumors are scary. Reputation is very important in this day and age. No matter what dirty things people do behind the scenes, people still have to maintain their dignity on the surface.
"Everyone, go home, go home and solve any problems you have. Don't spread what happened today. Otherwise, it's your own fault that the children in the village can't find wives. Old lady Zhang, take your grandchildren and granddaughters-in-law back quickly and hold a wedding banquet for them as soon as possible. Don't hide in the woods for no reason."
After saying that, Zhang Shouping took his shotgun and left. Compared to all these messy things, he was more worried about his son.
There was nothing fun to watch. The villagers, already filled with melons, went home one after another. The family where the accident happened would probably make a fuss in the evening.
Zhang Shouping returned home, put away the shotgun, and hurried to his son's room.
With such a big thing happening, Zhang Qinghe's eldest brother also came, but his two sisters married in other villages and they definitely wouldn't know about these things in the short term.
Lu Shengjuan sat aside, feeling anxious and not knowing how to persuade her son.
Zhang Qinghe was now lying on the bed, staring blankly at the beams with empty eyes, as if his wife and children had died.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
When Zhang Shouping walked into the room and saw his appearance, the anger that had been suppressed in his heart suddenly rose.
"With your ugly appearance, no wonder Liu Zhiqing would rather go into the woods with others than pay attention to you."
"What are you talking about? Qinghe is already sad, why are you mentioning Liu Qiaoqiao?" Lu Shengjuan immediately yelled at Zhang Shouping in dissatisfaction.
"A grown man can be sad, but he can't act like a little woman. Even if he can't be a man, he still has to act like a man and take responsibility."
Zhang Shouping was so disappointed with his youngest son that for the first time he felt disappointed with his youngest son for his behavior because of a woman.
"Today you are all talking about how Zhang Ze was able to marry a wife when his family was so poor. Now I will tell you why. His family was poor, but as the eldest son and the oldest man in the family, he was willing to support the family."
"Everyone in the village says that I take good care of Aze's family, but when I arranged things for him in previous years, which one did he not do well?"
"Is it really because of me that he gets more work points? That's what others get through their hard work!"
"He knows he has to work to support his family and feed his brothers and sisters, so he works hard. Is it any wonder that other people are willing to marry a man who can support a family like this?"
Zhang Qinghe's eldest brother twitched his lips when he heard this: "Dad, did you speak too highly of that kid Aze? There are many people in the village who can do what he does."
Zhang Shouping glared and slapped his eldest son on the head: "What do you know?"
The reason why he mentioned Zhang Ze was because his son had a close relationship with him.
This is using a familiar outsider to stimulate his own son, hoping to arouse the blood in the younger son's heart.
Men all want to save face. We all have five legs, so who is worse than the other? Speaking of Zhang Ze, Zhang Qinghe actually had some reaction: "Dad, Aze took me to find someone today. Did he know about Liu Qiaoqiao's situation? Why didn't he tell me directly?"
"I'll tell you directly, do you believe it?" Zhang Shouping was still angry and spoke aggressively.
Zhang Qinghe was stunned, then thought about Zhang Ze's intention of doing this at night, and soon understood his good intentions.
"So, I have to thank him!"
"I have to thank you. You have given Liu Qiaoqiao so many things privately over the years, and you even wanted to marry someone else. It's good to see the truth now." Zhang Shouping was relieved to see that his son had returned to normal.
Lu Shengjuan patted her chest with lingering fear: "Fortunately, we didn't have time to ask someone to act as a matchmaker, otherwise our family would be so embarrassed after the incident."
