"Aunt Zhao, you are wronging me..." Huang Xiuxiu hurriedly covered her head and explained to Zhao Xingmei while crying.
"Bah! How could I wrongly accuse you? You black-hearted little widow, you actually took advantage of my daughter-in-law's absence to seduce my son! I'm going to beat you to death! Do you think I won't beat you to death?" Zhao Xingmei was so angry that she swung her hand and slapped Huang Xiuxiu in the face.
Huang Xiuxiu was beaten so hard that she screamed and held her head, crying, "Help! Help! Help!"
"Mom!" Jiang Xun saw that the matter was about to get out of hand, so he warned her, "Don't hit her, kick her out! Don't let this matter become known to everyone."
Zhao Xingmei was so angry that she couldn't listen to what her son said.
Even if she listened and tried not to escalate the situation, Huang Xiuxiu would not do so.
During this time, she had already thought of a solution.
Huang Xiuxiu's scream attracted all the neighbors out of their houses.
"Son, hurry up! Hurry up! I can't be left out of this matter!" Aunt Jiang rushed out of the house. Seeing that it was raining heavily, she urged her son Niu Dazhi to get her an umbrella from home.
...
...
"Aunt Jiang, what are you doing in such a hurry?" Aunt Liang heard the noise, opened the window and spoke to Aunt Jiang who was standing in the yard.
"Huang Xiuxiu and Jiang Xun are together! It's going to be a good show to watch!" Aunt Jiang was very excited and was always at the forefront of gossip.
I had gotten into trouble a few times before for watching the fun, but I didn't care at all.
"Mom, what's going on outside?" Daliang's wife Kang Yuelian was sewing pants for Daliang. Seeing her mother-in-law was going out to watch the fun, she asked casually.
"I heard that Huang Xiuxiu and Jiang Xun were together." Aunt Liang said.
The needle in Kang Yuelian's hand stopped: "Mom, do you believe this?"
"I don't believe it." Aunt Liang shook her head and said firmly, "What kind of kid is Jiang Xun? Others may not know, but I know. I have watched this kid grow up since he was a child. He would never do such a dirty thing. Besides, he has a wife. Isn't Ye Li prettier than Huang Xiuxiu?"
Kang Yuelian nodded in agreement with this statement.
"Okay, I'll go take a look."
Kang Yuelian was usually not interested in the hustle and bustle in the yard.
She also grew up in a slum, but the neighbors in her yard got along very harmoniously and everyone had a good relationship. It was not as chaotic as this slum!
She hates this kind of environment!
Therefore, she tries to avoid getting involved in such matters as much as possible.
My mother-in-law is gone.
Kang Yuelian continued to sew the trousers. After finishing the last stitch, she lowered her head and bit the thread off with her teeth.
After she put away the sewing box, she took out a piece of cloth from the cupboard and drew lines on the cloth with drawing powder.
Summer is here, and it's time to cut clothes for Daliang.
Raindrops were pouring in. She stood up and walked to the window. Just as she was about to close it, she saw Ye Li walking into the yard carrying a snakeskin bag and holding a torn umbrella in his other hand.
Ye Li also saw her and greeted her with a smile: "Sister Yue Lian."
Kang Yuelian smiled back politely: "I'm back. Go back to your room and take a look. Everything is in chaos."
Ye Li was tired after a day's work and was caught in the rain when he came back, but he was in a good mood.
She had gained a lot today and couldn't wait to go back and share it with Jiang Xun, but she heard these words.
Her heart sank slightly.
When I went to the countryside today, my eyelids kept twitching.
She was not a superstitious person, but the twitching of her eyelids really made her uneasy.
On the way back, her eyelids finally stopped twitching and she felt happy.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the door, I was told that the house was in chaos.
Ye Li quickened his pace, taking two steps at a time, and returned to the door of his house.
The door to the house was blocked by the neighbors, and sounds of quarreling and crying could be heard from inside the house.
"Make way." Ye Li pushed through the crowd and returned to the house.
The scene before her made her feel suffocated.
The room was in a mess, with Jiang Xun's books and drawings scattered all over the floor.
Huang Xiuxiu sat on the ground in disheveled clothes, with messy hair, red eyes, tears streaming down her swollen face, and red marks appearing on her neck and collarbone.
Mother-in-law Zhao Xingmei grabbed her hair with one hand, her face showing anger and ferocity.
The two children, Chengcai and Dongliang, each held their grandmother's legs and refused to let go.
Jiang Xun leaned against the head of the bed, his face was ashen, his brows were wrinkled with deep wrinkles, his fists were clenched tightly, and the blue veins on the back of his hands were bulging.
"What... is going on?" The snakeskin bag on Ye Li's shoulder fell to the ground.
Huang Xiuxiu saw Ye Li coming back and immediately started to perform: "Ye Li... I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I came to borrow something from you, but I didn't expect... Brother Jiang Xun was drunk and mistook me for you, and then we..."
"You're talking nonsense!" Jiang Xun punched the man hard, "I've never recognized the wrong person! Nothing happened between you and me! Don't spread rumors here!"
"Brother Jiang Xun, you have done it but you must take responsibility for it... I... I am a woman, how can I use my own innocence to frame you?" Huang Xiuxiu cried.
"You're still lying! You're still lying!" Zhao Xingmei raised her hand to slap her.
"Grandma Zhao, don't hit my mom! Woohoo, you can't hit my mom!"
Huang Xiuxiu was determined to go all out. She gritted her teeth and wiped away her tears fiercely: "Okay, you don't believe me, right? Then I won't live anymore. I will die here today! You Jiang family have wronged me. I can't win against you all with just one word. I can only die to show my determination!"
"Mom! Mom, you can't die!"
"Bad guys, you are all bad guys! You all bully my mom!"
Li Chengcai and Li Dongliang hugged Huang Xiuxiu and cried, and the three of them burst into tears.
“Is this true or false?”
"I don't know? Do you think Jiang Xun could do such a thing?"
"Isn't this drunken?"
"Can you believe what Huang Xiuxiu said? A widow...could she be unable to bear the loneliness?"
"Khan! Look at what you said. Even if you can't stand the loneliness, you can't come to Jiang Xun, right? Your legs and feet are not working well, how can you do that?"
The voices of discussion were so low that they were drowned out by the sound of the rain.
Ye Li was close to the door and had sharp ears, so he could hear it clearly.
"Jiang Xun wouldn't do that!" Ye Li lowered his eyes and looked at Huang Xiuxiu, "No matter how real your acting is, you can't fool me! Jiang Xun can't do such a thing! I believe him!"
"What makes you so sure?" Niu Dazhi's voice came over, "Ye Li, you saw it too. Sister Xiu is so aggrieved. Look at her clothes... We are both married people. You should know what those 'strawberries' on her neck are, right?"
