Gu Yi also cooperated and ran out to his neighbor Niu Fang's house: "Aunt Niu! Help! My grandpa wants to beat my mother to death!"
Su Jincai was blackmailed for medical expenses a few days ago, and he is still a little scared, so he doesn't dare to really do anything. But Su Luo screamed so loudly that people who didn't know would think he had done something to her.
He was afraid of causing misunderstanding, so he rushed over and tried to cover Su Luo's mouth.
Su Luo looked terrified, waving her arms and legs: "Ah! Dad, don't hit me! Don't come over here, don't come over here!"
The little pig's hoof aimed at Su Jincai's chest and kicked him over.
Su Jincai was kicked by Su Luo and fell backwards. He felt a tightness in his chest and couldn't breathe. Everything went dark in front of his eyes. It took him a long time to recover.
Su Luo huddled in the corner of the yard pitifully, crying her heart out.
Su Jincai was kicked and became very angry. He picked up the dustpan next to him and smashed it on Su Luo.
The winnowing basket was made of a bamboo basket. Su Luo protected her head with her arms in advance and slightly tilted to the side. The winnowing basket hit the mouth of the well next to her. From the side view, it seemed as if it hit her and bounced off.
It happened that Gu Yi came over with his men.
The yard of Su Luo's house was surrounded by bamboo strips, but only half a person's height, so anyone passing by could see the scene inside.
Niu Fang was the first to rush forward: "Damn you Su Jincai! Stop it now!"
Several women and men who were working also rushed over.
"What is this for?"
"Su Jincai, he was fined a few days ago, but he didn't learn his lesson and is here to beat people up again today!"
Su Jincai saw that it was these nosy old women again, and he didn't take them seriously at all: "I beat my own daughter, even if I beat her to death, you guys have nothing to do with it, get out of my way!"
Aunt Niu hated these cheap men who attacked vulnerable women the most. She immediately laid her whole body in front of Su Luo and said, "Su Jincai! This is a new era. Don't bring your old-world ways here! Even if you beat my daughter, you have to have a reason! I, Niu Fang, will be the first one to disapprove of beating people for no reason!"
"Give your mother a reason!" Su Jincai looked down on these women. "What are you pretending to be like? What about the new era or the old society? How many words do you know? You dare to come to me and lecture me. I'm giving you face, right?"
After saying that, he was about to come over and slap Niu Fang in the face.
Niu Fang was not afraid at all, and leaned forward: "You dare to try! Why don't you try to hit someone? I'm telling you! If you hit me today, when those old cadres from my husband's army come back to see me tomorrow, I will make you, Su Jincai, pay the price and you won't be able to stay in the entire Xingsheng Village! You try to touch me? I'll drive you away, and even the captain can't stop me!"
Su Jincai came to his senses instantly. He almost forgot that the husband of this stinky old widow had served in the army and had made meritorious contributions.
Every Chinese New Year and other holidays, several good brothers in her husband’s army would come to see her with gifts.
Even the mayor of the town gave her some face.
Su Jincai didn't dare to beat her in the end. He stiffened his neck and said angrily, "This ungrateful little bastard owed me 20 yuan. She made 100 yuan but didn't think about paying her back. She bought some white rice and lived a comfortable life at home. What's wrong with me beating her? Is that not okay?"
When they heard “earned 100 yuan”, the faces of several people present changed.
Niu Fang was even more furious: "Bullshit! You came here to beat me up so early in the morning without asking any questions. Xiao Luo didn't make 100 yuan at all. She made up that lie to help the villagers catch the thief."
Su Jincai didn't believe it at all: "You are kidding me! If she didn't make money, how could she afford such good rice? Don't fool me! If you owe me money, you have to pay it back. This is only natural!"
Su Luo got up at the right time and stood next to Niu Fang, trying to make herself look petite and weak: "Dad, don't be angry, I really don't have any money. This rice is because Yi Yi was beaten so badly by you a few days ago, so I couldn't help but sell wild vegetables to buy him some rice to cook porridge. There is only so much in the pot. If you don't believe me, search, there is really nothing left at home!"
She dared to say this because she had guessed last night that Su Jincai would get wind of the news and hid all the valuables in advance.
Without saying a word, Su Jincai turned around and went into her room to search for something.
Everyone looked at Su Jincai's bandit-like behavior. He entered the house, kicked over the chairs, moved the cabinets, and turned Su Luo's house upside down. They couldn't help but look at her with sympathy.
In the past, when Su Jincai and Su Luo were making trouble, they just thought it was fun, and evildoers will be punished by evildoers.
But now it seems that Su Luo has really changed her personality, and when they look at her again, they can't help but feel a little sympathy for her. It's really unfortunate to have a father like Su Jincai.
Su Luo heard the clanging noises inside. She felt helpless and aggrieved, and she covered her face and sobbed.
Gu Yi had never seen his mother show weakness before, so he pursed his lips and wanted to comfort her, but he didn't know how to start.
Yes, no matter how powerful his mother is, she is just a woman. What can she do against a fierce man like grandpa? If he were Su Luo, he would definitely be scared, facing such a terrifying father since he was a child.
He couldn't help but feel sympathy for Su Luo. He secretly reached out and grabbed the corner of Su Luo's clothes that had been washed white, and was about to speak.
Su Luo covered her face, and made the shape of "crying" to him from an angle that only he could see when he looked up, and then pinched him secretly.
Gu Yi: “…”
Su Luo cried and complained: "I'm sorry to make you laugh, Auntie, what's going on? My life is so miserable."
Aunt Niu patted her on the shoulder and said, "Don't say that. You are so young and you still have a long life ahead of you."
Su Luo took the opportunity to say, "I've heard that you often run a small business in town, so I want to try it out and let you show me the way. When I make enough money to pay back my father, I can live a more peaceful life and have money to support Yi Yi's studies. If you are willing to take me with you, we can talk about it later."
When Aunt Niu heard that she was going to send Gu Yi to school, her eyes lit up and she liked her even more: "That's great! We'll talk about it later."
Su Jincai really didn't find anything valuable in her house. He stared at Su Luo unwillingly: "You must have hidden the money on you! Hand it over!"
Su Luo quickly shook her head "weakly": "No... I didn't."
Aunt Niu protected her behind her and glared at Su Jincai: "Do you still want to search her? This is your daughter, but she is already a mother. Su Jincai, you are old enough not to do such a shameful thing, okay?"
Several women nearby also chimed in, "Yes! Su Jincai, Su Luo really has no money! If she had money, would it be your turn to search? I already said that I lied about having 100 yuan yesterday in order to help everyone catch the thief. The village chief and many people know about this. Just ask anyone! See if they are lying to you!"
