Seeing his daughter-in-law rushing towards Mrs. Cheng like crazy, the captain did not go out to stop her immediately.
Some people just deserve a beating.
He is a man and the captain, so it is not convenient for him to take action. But his wife can.
Seeing his wife beating Mrs. Cheng madly with a big broom, the captain felt a little better.
Thinking the fight was almost over, the captain stepped forward and grabbed his wife.
He took the big broom from her hand and threw it into the innermost corner of the room.
"Okay, calm down. We can't just let this go. But if you get angry, our daughter will be without her mother to support her. Sit down and take a rest. I'll take care of the rest."
After saying that, the captain pulled Aunt Tian to sit on the chair at the back of the room. Then, he changed his face and looked at Mrs. Cheng who was knocked to the ground and couldn't get up, and asked, "Where did you hear what you just said? I tell you, you are slandering me! If you don't explain the matter clearly, I will find you! When the time comes, don't blame me for disregarding the feelings of fellow villagers!"
The captain always gives people the impression and feeling of being friendly and easy to talk to.
It seems that almost no one has ever seen him with a cold face, let alone angry.
So much so that many people have forgotten that the captain can also get angry.
Mrs. Cheng was hit by the big broom. The exposed skin on her face, neck and hands was more or less covered with red marks of varying depths and lengths, which made her look pitiful.
She herself is now also shocked.
Mrs. Cheng never thought that she would be beaten when she came to the captain's house to propose marriage.
She had lived for decades, and this was the first time she had been greeted like this with a broom.
At once, pain, shame and anger all flooded my heart.
How could there be such a thing in the world! This captain's family is too overbearing!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Cheng felt aggrieved and stood up and ran out of the house, crying and making a fuss as she ran.
"Everyone, come and see! Everyone, come and see! The captain's family is bullying me! I'm about to be beaten to death by the captain's family!" Mrs. Cheng knew that most people were working in the fields, so she ran towards the fields.
She couldn't just be beaten like this in vain, she had to seek justice for this matter.
What's wrong with the team leader? The team leader cannot openly go against the people.
Moreover, the person who beat the man was the captain's wife. No matter how you look at it, she was right in this matter.
Mrs. Cheng ran and shouted, but her mind was still thinking.
Judging from the attitude of the captain's family, this marriage may not be successful.
If it really doesn't work out in the end, she might have to return the one dollar to Old Lady Ruan.
After all this trouble, she can't end up with nothing to gain.
It was true that the captain's family had beaten someone, so she had to make a big fuss. She had to make them pay for her medical expenses.
When the captain saw Mrs. Cheng running away, he didn't react at first. When he heard her start to shout, he slapped his thigh and thought, this is bad.
Then he chased after him directly.
Aunt Tian followed closely and regretted very much that she was not the last one to enter the house and did not close the door tightly.
Everyone was familiar with the roads in the village. After a while, Mrs. Cheng ran to the edge of the field where everyone was working, and then sat down on the edge of the field. Then she screamed and twisted her waist, shouting, "I don't want to live anymore. I am so old, and I still want to be beaten with a big broom. I am so embarrassed."
Everyone has been working for an hour or so and is just beginning to feel tired.
Normally, at times like this, they would also stand or walk for a while in groups, or just sit on the edge of the field to rest.
It doesn’t take long, just two or three minutes, and then you can continue.
But today, Mrs. Cheng suddenly did this. Everyone stopped at the same time. Those who were farther away even walked over here on purpose, fearing that they would not be able to see the scene first-hand and eat the melon first-hand.
A neighbor who usually interacted with Mrs. Cheng saw her like this and asked, "Mr. Cheng, what's wrong with you?!"
Mrs. Cheng looked really miserable now. In addition to the bloodstains on her body, her hair was messy. She was also covered with a lot of mud because she sat on the ridge of the field.
The whole person looks dirty and miserable.
When Mrs. Cheng saw someone asking, she said directly, "The captain's family is bullying! I went to their house with good intentions to propose marriage to their Xiao'e, but not only did they have a tough attitude, they also beat me up! Look, all the injuries on my body were caused by the captain's family!"
This sentence contains a huge amount of information.
Everyone at the scene was stunned at once.
Xiao'e is going to get married?! Why didn't I hear any rumors before?!
Moreover, why is it the Cheng family who came to propose marriage? !
It seems like these two families have no interactions at all, so how come they are suddenly talking about marriage? !
If Xiao'e can get the kiss, then does that mean my family members also have a chance? !
Xiao E is now one of the best girls in the entire Xiangyang Brigade. If this could be accomplished, wouldn’t it be wonderful!
After Mrs. Cheng finished speaking, as if she was afraid that no one would believe her, she pulled up her sleeves to show everyone the wound on the back of her hand.
An experienced person would know at a glance that this kind of bloody wound is caused by being beaten by the branches of a big broom, and it looks miserable. In fact, it only hurts when it is beaten, and it is not a big deal.
If you ignore it, it will heal in three to five days. Basically, there will be no trace left.
Of course, there are some exceptions for people with scar-prone constitutions.
At this time, the team leader and Aunt Tian also came running over.
It had been a long time since either of them had run such a long distance in a short time. For a moment, they could only gasp for breath and could not utter a word.
However, the look Auntie Tian gave Mrs. Cheng seemed to be filled with poison.
This shocked everyone who knew her.
You know, Auntie Tian usually gives people the impression of being very calm and rational. Basically, no one in the village has ever seen her blush or get angry.
When everyone saw this scene, they were all confused.
What happened? It was supposed to be a marriage proposal. Proposing a marriage is a good thing, how could it turn out like this?
