Chapter 332: Fight
Xu Dashan was so angry that his eyes turned red. He clenched his fists and chased after Xu Dahai and punched him.
Xu Dahai was no pushover either. He recovered and got up from the ground, picked up the carrying pole that had just been tied with a red rope and chased after him.
Relatives rushed forward to try to stop the fight, but they failed the first time and Xu Dashan was hit hard with a stick.
The two brothers started fighting on the spot.
They all fought to the death and no one gave in.
When Wang Ximei saw Xu Dashan being beaten, she was so anxious that she wanted to go over and help with her crutches.
Others hurriedly stopped them, "Dashan's mother, don't make trouble. Your past is not enough to beat them. Dashan's wife, what's wrong with you? Take your mother-in-law back quickly."
Xu Dashan and several of his aunts glared at Wang Fengying with dissatisfaction.
Only then did Wang Fengying take action.
The farce finally ended after relatives' persuasion.
Both of them were injured. After all, Xu Dashan was older and had never done physical work since childhood. He was not as good at fighting as Xu Dahai, so his injuries were more serious.
Xu Dahai was pulled by several cousins and kept talking.
Since the two of them couldn't fight, they resorted to verbal abuse, saying all sorts of nasty things, and asking about either the other's mother or his reproductive organs.
Wang Ximei and Wang Fengying in the room almost fainted from anger.
Seeing that no one was standing at the lobby door, Xu Dahai broke free from his cousin's hand, went over to light three incense sticks, and went to burn incense openly.
As soon as he inserted it, Xu Dashan went over to pull it out, threw it on the ground and stomped on it.
Xu Dahai kicked him directly into the room, and a loud noise was heard.
The relatives' faces changed and they rushed to rescue the man.
Xu Dahai shouted angrily, "I have to burn this incense today. I'll beat you up as many times as you pull it out. I'm not afraid even if I beat you to death!"
"Why is my life so miserable! Old man, why did you leave like this, leaving such a scourge to our family? Why didn't you take him away with you, wuwuwu" Wang Ximei cried in the house.
Even the villagers couldn't stand what was said.
Xu Dahai, however, had no expression on his face. He glanced coldly at Xu Dashan who was lying on the ground groaning, then lit three incense sticks again. He then stood in front of Old Man Xu's coffin with a righteous look on his face, "Grandpa, you have seen clearly what happened today. When you were alive, you were partial to me and you couldn't blame me for breaking up your relationship. Now that you are dead, they still want to mess up your funeral. Every grievance has its perpetrator and every debt has its creditor. I am not afraid if you are still as confused as before. After all, we have nothing to fear from our own shadows.
I put up this incense as a token of my love. It's up to you whether you accept it or not. I won't bother with you about the past. I believe you don't have the face to come to me again. You don't like me as a son, and I hate you as a father. I hope that we can go our separate ways in the next life and never meet again!"
This was the first time Xu Dahai clearly expressed his resentment towards his parents in front of everyone.
The wailing in the room suddenly stopped.
The yard was completely silent.
Several uncles and aunts frowned, looked at each other, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Xu Dahai inserted the incense and just stood there staring at it. When he saw that the incense continued to burn normally, he turned around and strode out of the mourning hall when it was almost done.
Only then was Xu Dashan helped up by several people.
Xu Dahai had used almost all his strength in that kick just now, and his ribs were probably broken. Now it hurts so much when he moves the slightest, and he also feels like he can't breathe.
Xu Dashan didn't show it on the surface, but he was actually very panicked. He said weakly: "I think I'm going to see my dad soon."
Old man Xu's body was right next to them. These words scared the men so much that their hair stood on end and they accidentally hurt Xu Dashan.
Xu Dashan howled even louder.
There was a moment of chaos and confusion because Xu Dashan was shouting so loudly and everyone was afraid that something had really happened, so they rushed him to the hospital.
The first thing he did was to contact Xu Jie who was hiding, and ask him to go to the hospital to accompany Xu Dashan for a checkup.
At this time, no matter how much Xu Jie didn't want to show up, he couldn't hide.
When he rushed to the hospital, his relatives in the village looked at him with condemnation.
"Xu Jie, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you can't disappear in an occasion like today. No one can blame you for your grandfather's death, so why are you hiding?"
"That's right! You are a cultured person after all. If you were there just now, you could have persuaded your father and your second uncle to stop fighting. Your father would have listened to you, but he would have ignored our words."
"I'm telling you, your dad deserved to be injured today. He asked for it. Your grandfather is also your second uncle's father. That was the grudge between your grandfather and your second uncle. Your grandfather died, and your second uncle buried him. Your dad had no say in the matter, but he insisted on stopping it and making trouble."
As everyone was talking at once, Xu Jie finally understood the whole story, and his face looked so gloomy that water seemed to drip from it.
At this time, a grandfather from the village rushed to the hospital. When he saw Xu Jie, he immediately urged him, "It's good for you to be here. Come back to the village with me. Your father can't take charge of the situation like this. Your second uncle burned incense and paper money and left. Your third uncle is still on the way and will not be back until tomorrow morning. You, the eldest grandson, have to shoulder the burden. By the way, where is your wife?"
Everyone looked at Xu Jie.
Xu Jie's face turned even darker. He said stiffly, "I don't know," and followed his grandfather away.
As a result, he was brought back to pay the inspection fee to Xu Dashan.
After all this back and forth, Xu Jie was so annoyed that he lost his temper.
When he returned to the village, he had to comfort Wang Ximei, persuade Wang Fengying, and run around, while also accepting other people's naked stares and discussions.
He had never been so humiliated in his life.
At this moment, he seemed to have felt all the malice in the world.
Why is this happening? He has never done anything to harm others in his life, so why is God so cruel to him? It's not fair, it's not fair!
Xu Jie clenched his fists tightly, his eyes were bloodshot.
Wang Fengying noticed that her son was in a bad mood and was afraid that something might happen to him, so she forced herself to be alert and help, and let Xu Jie rest as much as possible.
At night, all the villagers left and Old Xu's house became quiet.
Wang Fengying wiped her tears in the wing room, holding Xu Jie and sobbing, "Son, now that things have come to this, we can only face reality. After your grandfather is buried, we will go to the city hospital for examination and treatment. If the city hospital can't treat you, we will go to the provincial hospital. The doctors there are better. You can't give up no matter what."
The more Wang Fengying spoke, the harder her tears fell, and in the end she had to cover her mouth to stop herself from crying out loud.
Xu Jie had a look of despair on his face. He looked down at his sad mother, then at his grandfather lying in the mourning hall, and his grandmother who kept sighing in the opposite room. He had no choice but to agree.
The villagers came to help early the next morning.
At about eight o'clock, Wang Dachuan and Zhang Guizhi, who had disappeared for many years, finally came back.
Xu Dachuan was wearing a suit and leather shoes and carrying a briefcase. Zhang Guizhi was wearing a black dress and white high heels. She had big wavy curls and her face was heavily made up.
When the two appeared, the villagers didn't recognize them.
