Zhou Dachun regretted his decision so much that his intestines turned green. He used to think that the second wife's sons were nothing special. They were just useless losers like the second son. They could only help with the heavy work when there was heavy work at home.
Who would have thought that things would change over time? Now even the most disappointing second-rate guy has to suppress his family's Huai Xing. If this continues, the eldest wife will always be at the mercy of them.
He only agreed when Zhou Huaixing proposed to report Zhou Huaian, and it was he who came up with the idea of posting the anonymous letter. Who knew that the wind direction had really changed these days, and it was okay to use large tracts of mountain land to grow medicinal herbs.
Who knew that the report was known to that wolf cub Zhou Laoyao. He was thinking of growing some at home, but now it’s all over, he can’t grow any more!
Zhou Sanba's eyes widened as he angrily rushed over to block Zhou Dachun, "Big brother, is this how you behave as a father? Allowing your son to falsely accuse his uncles and brothers? What good will it do you if something happens to Second Brother's family?"
Just now Zhou Huaian told him that it might be Zhou Huaixing who wrote an anonymous letter to report them, but he was a little skeptical. Now that he heard him admit it with his own ears, he believed it.
But what he never expected was that Zhou Dachun knew everything!
When he thought of his competitive and selfish personality, he felt that it was normal for Zhou Dachun to do such a thing!
Zhou Dachun then noticed that he had also arrived, and angrily grabbed him, "Third brother, Huaixing was wrong to report it, but the second branch is fine now, right? Hurry up and stop that scoundrel. I only have this one son, and if he beats him up, I won't let him off!"
Zhou Huairong was so angry that his face turned red. "Third father, listen to this. Even though he is like this, I, an old man, still remember to help him dig ditches in the fields and help him water the rice fields."
Zhou San's father felt chilled, "Big brother, you really have a dark heart. Even when the second brother had a conflict with you, he never forgot to help you. Is your heart made of stone?"
Zhou Huaishan: "Third Dad, he doesn't want me to help him! Even if I help him, he will still say he is a fool!"
Zhou Huaixing struggled to break free from Zhou Huaian, and when he turned around, he was hit by a punch from Zhou Yiding. He reluctantly pushed him away, and then turned around and was grabbed by the furious Zhou Huaishan, who rained fists on him.
"If the second room is fine, I'll beat you to death, you black-hearted, rotten-lung bastard!"
"Ouch~" Zhou Huaixing screamed in pain, curled up on the ground, and called Zhou Dachun in a hoarse voice, "Old man, go and call grandpa."
"Third brother, you just watched the beast from the second house beat people up? Someone come! Someone's been beaten to death!" Li Yinfu shouted and went over to help tear Zhou Huaishan apart.
Zhou Huaian stepped forward and grabbed her, pushing her to the ground, "You are beasts. Even dogs know not to bite their own people, but you only bite your own people."
Zhou San's father watched coldly, the eldest family was rotten to the core, and he wanted to cut off ties with these worse-than-beasts people.
"Old Third, are you dead? Hurry up and stop those little beasts!" Zhou Dachun was heartbroken. This was his only child! He could earn thirty or forty yuan a day now. What would he do if he got hurt?
Zhou San's father retorted without any hesitation, "You are the beast! You have been bullying me and my second brother since we were young. If there was no you in this family, with only my second brother and I, we would be brothers and get along well, and none of these things would happen!"
"...You two are good brothers, I am the bad guy!" Zhou Dachun rushed over to pull Zhou Huaishan, "Let go, Yinfu, go and call the old man."
"You think of the old man whenever you have something to do. Why don't you think of the old man when you find a way to do something?" Zhou Huaian raised his leg and stepped forward to stop him, squinting his eyes and coldly saying, "If you dare to take even a step forward, we brothers will attack you together."
Zhou Yiding and Zhou Huairong stood up together and looked at him coldly, "Brother San, stop fighting when you are tired. Think about it, it is better to fight alone than with several people!"
Zhou Dachun pointed at Zhou Yiding and said, "When your husband comes back, I will go find him and ask him how he taught his son. You are meddling in other people's affairs."
Zhou Yiding raised his hand to push him away, "Someone shovels the uneven road, but for your house, I can only say that you did a good job!"
Zhou Huaian sneered: "Which one of us is yours? My second branch has nothing to do with you guys. Your face is thicker than a city wall."
Zhou Dachun was so angry that he was shaking all over. He looked at the three strong men and didn't know what to do. Seeing this, he wanted to find the old man, "You beast, you hit me at my door, I'm going to find you, old man!"
Zhou Huaian and Zhou Huairong stepped forward and grabbed him, twisting one of his hands each, "It's unfortunate for me to have a brother like you who is so black-hearted and rotten-hearted."
"You dare to write an anonymous letter to report our family. Today, it's useless to call grandpa or grandma." Seeing that the beating was almost over, Zhou Huaian said to Zhou Huaishan, "Third brother, don't waste your energy beating that beast. Arrest Zhou Huaixing and send him to the police. Charge him for false accusation!"
Zhou San's father was also afraid that Zhou Huaishan would beat him up and make him suffer. It would not be worthwhile for him to stay in the detention room, so he went up to stop Zhou Huaishan and said, "Forget it, stop hitting me!"
Zhou Huaishan grabbed Zhou Huaixing, who was beaten black and blue and lying on the ground like a pile of mud, and dragged him out. "This kind of scum should be put in the detention room."
When Zhou Huaixing heard that he was going to be sent to the police station, he stopped pretending to be dead and started struggling violently, "Mom, go call grandpa quickly, I don't want to go to the detention room, hurry up..."
Li Yinfu was so anxious that he turned over and climbed up. He didn't dare to provoke Zhou Huaian's brothers. He shouted to Zhou Sanba: "Third brother, the kids in the second room are your nephews and nieces, and Huaixing is also your nephews and nieces. You can't be so partial!"
"When I was dying, Huaizhong came to you to borrow money. What did you say? I didn't get a penny, and you laughed at me.
Hongmei and her two children took me to the hospital. They didn’t have a dollar on them, so they had no money for surgery. She and her two children had to sell blood to save my life.”
Dad Zhou San was still furious when he thought of what his eldest wife had done. "Luckily, when Huai was paying the hospital bill, she met Chunyan from the youngest wife's family, who found Hongmei and sent her to see Doctor Wang. Otherwise, she would have died long ago."
"..." Zhou Dachun and Li Yinfu were speechless after hearing what he said. After a while, they said, "Third brother, it was the eldest brother who let you down before. We were wrong. Huaixing is the only one in the first house. Just imagine what would happen if the old man knew that it was Huaixing who reported it.
Now he has been sent to prison by the youngest brother. If his uncle and cousin get hurt because of this, we will be too ashamed to face anyone in the Funiu Brigade."
Zhou San's father said, "You still know that the old man is going to be angry. What were you doing when your Huaixing did such a wicked thing that harmed his uncles?
Do you think I don't know what you are thinking? You two wish your family was rich and could eat meat every day, while my family and my second brother's family are so poor that we can't even beg for food.
Now we are all living better than you, and second brother's family has become the most prominent in the village. You feel unhappy and find ways to bully second brother.
This time you reported my second brother's family for sabotaging grain production, next time will you report me for selling tofu and sabotaging the country's purse strings? You two have hearts that are darker than the bottom of a pot."
Zhou Huaian looked at Zhou Dachun's face which was as red as pig liver, and felt that Yang Chunyan's idea of asking him to call Third Father to be a witness was really a good one. Third Father's scolding was good and it made him feel relieved!
Zhou Huaishan and Zhou Huairong picked up Zhou Huaixing and prepared to walk out, but he grabbed the table leg, holding on tightly and begging for mercy.
"Youngest, I was wrong. Please let me go this time. If I do something to let your family down again, just let me drown in the river while driving the tractor!"
Zhou Dachun looked at Zhou Huaixing who was struggling on the ground, and also begged for mercy, "Huairong, Daddy begs you to let Huaixing go. I swear to God, if he dares to do anything to let you down in the future, you can do whatever you want to him!"
Li Yinfu was heartbroken. "Zhou Laoyao, killing is not enough. My Huaixing has even sworn a death oath, but you still won't let him go. Are you going to force the eldest wife to death?"
Zhou Huaian sneered: "We force you to death? If people are shameless, even ghosts will be afraid!"
Zhou Sanba was worried that the old man would be angry if he knew about this, so he teased Zhou Huairong and said, "Boss, they both swore an oath. Why don't you forgive them this time for your grandfather's sake?"
Zhou Huairong's face darkened. "Third Dad, this isn't the first time they've bullied my family. Even his wife said he's a pervert. What if we let him off this time and he bullies my family again in a different way in the future?"
Seeing that his tone was showing signs of softening, Zhou Dachun walked up to Zhou Huaian and his brother and said, "Youngest brother, Dad is wrong. As long as you don't send Huaixing to the police station, you can make any demands and we will compensate you."
At this time, Chen Limei came into the yard with her two children on her back. Li Yinfu saw her as if she had seen a savior and shouted hurriedly: "Limei, go call your grandfather over!"
As long as the old man comes, those bastards from the second house won’t be able to take Huaixing away.
Chen Limei looked in astonishment at Zhou Huaixing, who was lying on the ground holding onto the table leg, and his brother Zhou Huaian, who were pulling him out.
After a moment, a strange scene appeared. She was seen calmly pulling two children with wide eyes to the side, as if what was happening in front of her had nothing to do with her.
Seeing that she didn't move, Li Yinfu held the two children and rushed to her, pointed at her nose and cursed: "You traitorous bitch, I told you to go to the second room and call your grandfather, why didn't you leave? Huaixing will be in jail, and you won't get any good!"
Brother Zhou Huaian and Zhou Yiding were also wondering why Chen Limei didn't go to find the old man. Now that they saw the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law arguing, they all crossed their arms and watched the fun.
Chen Limei slapped her hand away, "Being a traitor? You mean that beast? She slept with that old bitch Xu Feng and paid her three hundred dollars in compensation, and it's only been less than two months. I finally managed to collect the three hundred dollars and drive the tractor back.
"I've only made a few bucks, but I've hooked up with the town's backdoor. A dog can't change its nature. The money I earn is going to fill a bottomless pit anyway. It's better to be in jail!"
If her parents were as good to Yumei as the second wife was to her, she would not come back this time. She would rather divorce and live alone with her two children. (End of this chapter)
