Dachaokuangang slapped himself in the face several times: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault!"
There was anger and disappointment in his voice. In the past, he felt that his wife was a little confused about matters concerning her parents' home.
I didn't expect that it would be like this even in such a big matter.
There was a trace of confusion in Dachao's eyes. Could it be that what his mother said before was right?
Xiu'er didn't expect Dachao's reaction to be so big. When she told her mother about it last night, it was just a casual mention.
I thought that if I planted an orchard in my village, I could send a lot of pears to my parents' home in the future, whether I bought pears or shared them.
She really didn't expect that her mother would run to Captain Liu's house and talk.
The more Xiu'er thought about it, the more she felt wronged: "I just mentioned it to my mother casually. How would I know her? You actually quarreled with me over such a small matter!
If it really can't be done, then it can't be done. It doesn't matter who runs the orchard in the two brigades. That's my mother's family, and we will definitely benefit from it when the time comes."
There was disapproval in her tone, and her words made Dachao completely disappointed.
But only Xiu'er herself knew that her shaking legs and violently beating heart showed that she was also afraid.
He is just used to showing off and saving face in front of Dachao.
The noise of the couple's quarrel could be clearly heard outside, and Captain Lu and Secretary He's faces turned gloomy.
The faces of the people standing outside the yard and eavesdropping also looked unhappy!
Captain Lu looked around, took a deep breath, and kicked open Dachao's door.
A loud "bang" startled the two people who were arguing.
When Xiu'er saw clearly the person standing at the door, she subconsciously hid behind Dachao.
Dachao had no way to avoid it, and finally could only walk up to Captain Lu with a bitter face and tell him about the stupid things his wife had done.
Looking at Captain Lu's dark eyes, Dachao's voice became smaller and smaller, until finally, he was so stunned that he didn't know what to say.
Dachao's mother pushed the crowd aside and said indignantly, "I said before that this person is a jinx. How long has he been in our house?
Are you trying to instigate Dachao to split up? Before Dachao got married, wasn't it me who had the final say?
Now it’s all right, I couldn’t stop her from sending something to her parents’ house yesterday…”
Seeing that Dachao's mother was getting more and more excited, Captain Lu said sternly, "That's enough! Isn't it chaotic enough?"
Dachao's mother trembled all over when she was yelled at, and a gloating expression was hung on her face, which was very funny.
Captain Lu looked at Xiu'er, who was hiding behind Dachao like a quail, and said tiredly, "Xiu'er, logically speaking, I shouldn't be involved in your family affairs.
But you have gone too far in this matter, after all, it involves the interests of the entire team.
You just revealed it in a few words, where does that put our Dahe Village?
We were originally confident that the commune would pay for the opera theater, but now, if we want to do it, the brigade has to provide the money and manpower.
Just ask, who is willing to do this kind of thing? "
After all, she was a young bride who had only been married for a few years, so Captain Lu explained all the pros and cons of the matter to her.
His words weren't particularly sharp, but the disappointment on his face hurt Dachao's heart.
Even the surrounding villagers couldn't help but criticize: "Xiu'er, you are usually close to your mother's family, this is human nature.
But now you have married into our village, to be honest, it’s not nice.
Marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog. All your interests should be based on our village first."
"Yeah, now what do you think we should do about this? A good thing has turned out like this because of your big mouth! You have to take responsibility for this!"
"Who said it wasn't true? I used to think you were a hard-working person, but who knew you were such a talker..."
The accusations from everyone made Xiu'er's eyes well up with tears. She gently pulled Dachao's sleeve, wanting him to say a few words for her.
But Dachao was so confused at the moment that he had no time to care about her.
Finally, Xiu'er ran back into the room sobbing and crying, and the door slammed shut with a loud bang. The sound was so loud that it made everyone look even more unhappy.
Dachao was really left with no choice but to clench his fists, and as if he had made a decision, he bowed deeply to Captain Lu.
"Captain, my wife was wrong in this matter. I will not shirk my responsibility. Let's put it this way. If our brigade wants to build a pear garden in the future.
My wife and I will work together and we don't need any work points. Is this okay with you?"
The discussion of the crowd stopped abruptly, and everyone looked at Dachao in surprise.
Dachao's mother wanted to slap Dachao a few times. Why did a good person have a mouth?
Just apologize for this matter and it will be over.
It's really a sin to take all the responsibility on yourself. That's dozens of dollars, not just a few dollars.
Captain Lu looked at Dachao with admiration in his eyes, touched the pipe on his waist and said, "You are a good kid, Dachao.
Let’s put it this way. When we build the opera garden later, your wife will cook and won’t get any work points. You will get half the work points for your labor.
I won't hold anyone responsible for this matter.
And you, we are all from the same village, so don’t say anything too extreme.
Dachao's wife was really mad and left. Can you guys compensate him?
I don't want to see this mistake made by any of us again.
"Everything that is arranged by the team must be kept in mind. You know who I am better than anyone else. I can't hurt you all, right?"
Everyone listened to Captain Lu's words and nodded in agreement.
Captain Lu waved his hand, signaling everyone to disperse.
Seeing everyone scattering like birds and beasts, Dachao wiped his face with his hand and walked back to his house helplessly.
Xiu'er was lying on the quilt and crying "woo woo woo". If it were in the past, Dachao would have gone over to comfort her out of concern.
But now, seeing that she showed no sign of repentance, Dachao felt extremely tired and had no desire to talk to her.
When Xiu'er saw Dachao's attitude, which was completely different from before, she cried even harder: her mother was right, men are unreliable.
Can he be good to you for a while, but can he be good to you forever? In the end, she still has to rely on her parents.
The more Xiu'er thought about it, the sadder she felt. What her mother asked her last night made her even more determined.
When Dachao was called away and turned to go to the yard, Xiu'er wiped her tears, turned over, took off her shoes and got into bed.
A pair of hands were groping in the bedside table.
After a long time, he finally took out an iron box.
When she saw the scattered hundreds of yuan in there, she picked up all the ten-yuan and five-yuan notes with trembling hands.
Only a few one-yuan and a few-cent coins were left, lying alone in the iron box.
