Chapter 314: Harming the Girl
Ma Tianzao came to study and could help keep an eye on the children, which made Lu Miao feel a lot more relaxed.
The college entrance examination will be restarted next year, which is an opportunity.
Let’s talk about it separately. What if Ma Tianzao takes the exam and it’s really like a blind cat catching a dead mouse?
With this in mind, Lu Miao put more sincerity into teaching Ma Tianzao.
In the past, she only taught Ma Tianzao some common expressions, but now she takes Ma Tianzao step by step to read newspapers and try to write short essays and articles.
I am also glad that she taught Ma Tianzao pinyin at that time.
Although she has not found any data with pinyin at hand, after she marked the pinyin on the text in the newspaper, Ma Tianzao was able to read it even though he was stumbling.
Lu Miao felt deeply relieved.
Ma Tianzao was even more surprised and unbelievable, and often held the newspaper to question Lu Miao.
She asked if she could really get into college if she could recognize all the words in the newspaper.
Lu Miao was afraid that she would go to Xu Yao again, but he also encouraged her sincerely, saying that if she kept persisting, there would be a high chance that she would succeed.
Ma Tianzao was visibly overjoyed, often grinning at the newspaper, and his attitude towards study became more diligent.
Gradually, coming to the Fu family to study became almost Ma Tianzao's daily task.
And Xu Yao completely disappeared from her and Lu Miao's sight.
It was more than a month later when I heard Xu Yao's name again.
It was just October at that time, and the production team was busy harvesting late-season rice.
The east and west threshing grounds started grinding grain and keeping watch over the night again.
It was during this busy period that one night sounds of beating and scolding suddenly came from the production team.
Lu Miao could only hear the noise at home, and couldn't make out what was going on over there.
Fu Jingyou was afraid that something had happened to the He family, so he put on his clothes and asked Lu Miao to bolt the door while he went to take a look.
The eldest and second babies are asleep, so someone needs to be at home.
Lu Miao nodded and told him to go and come back quickly.
If something really comes to a head, tell him to be careful and not get hurt.
Fu Jingyou nodded in agreement and went out with a kerosene lamp.
Lu Miao was listening to the noise at home.
The production team was noisy for about an hour, and then suddenly became quiet.
Lu Miao thought that the matter should be settled and Fu Jingyou should be back.
I sat and waited for another half an hour, feeling drowsy and sleepy, but Fu Jingyou still didn't come back.
Lu Miao was feeling uneasy. At this moment, someone knocked on the door. She went over to ask who it was, but it was Chen Guifen who answered.
"Aunt, why are you here?"
Lu Miao pulled out the bolt and quickly opened the door.
Chen Guifen fanned herself with a palm-leaf fan to ward off the mosquitoes that were buzzing around her legs, then walked into the house and said,
"Jingyou went to the county and probably won't be back tonight. He was worried that you couldn't take care of the child by yourself, so he asked me to come and stay with you for the night."
Lu Miao lowered his eyebrows, his heart instantly tense.
"What's going on? Why did he go to the county?"
Lu Miao was afraid that someone in the team would start a fight with someone else, and Fu Jingyou would go over to break up the fight but get hurt instead. He immediately became uneasy.
Her voice suddenly became louder, startling the second baby who was sleeping soundly in the cradle, and he started crying and groaning a few times.
Lu Miao felt guilty and hurried over to pat him to comfort him.
Erbao held her index finger and fell asleep again.
Lu Miao squatted on the edge of the rocking cradle and looked at Chen Guifen: "Auntie!"
"You, you are just impatient."
Chen Guifen sighed helplessly, locked the door and went into the house, quickly closing the door of her room as well, fearing that if she was a little slow, more mosquitoes would fly in.
"It has nothing to do with him. It's Xu Zhiqing from the team."
"Xu Zhiqing, Xu Yao?"
"yes."
Chen Guifen nodded.
"You know Zaohua Niang, right? The one who delivered you."
Lu Miao nodded.
Although Lu Miao is already the daughter-in-law of the Fu family, she is beautiful and delicate, and looks like a grown-up girl.
Chen Guifen looked embarrassed and found it difficult to speak to her:
"You are a young wife, I shouldn't have told you this..."
Chen Guifen took a breath and continued:
"Xu Zhiqing was threshing grain in the threshing field, and Zaohua was keeping watch there... They were seen hiding in a straw stack."
“…”
Lu Miao seemed to have pressed the pause button, his expression was blank and confused for a moment, and then he suddenly frowned.
"?"
Chen Guifen continued:
"A girl's innocence is of paramount importance. Zaohua's father died early, and Zaohua was raised by her mother alone..."
"If this matter gets out of hand and gets to Zaohua's mother's ears, will she be able to tolerate it?"
Of course not.
The only girl I depend on, if you fall in love and get engaged, she may not ask for anything more from you.
It would be good if you could correct your attitude and follow the process.
There was nothing going on, and no information was leaked before, but he just seduced the girl. Isn't this pure harm?
Lu Miao was shocked when he heard this.
Before, she only focused on Ma Tianzao, because Ma Tianzao had a father who was a scorer and her family's living conditions were slightly better than other families in the team.
If Xu Yao tied her up, she wouldn't have to eat or drink the delicious food, but she would definitely have no shortage of money.
But I didn't expect that this bastard was so unscrupulous!
In such a short time, he extended his hand to other girls in the team!
Not sure if he was angry or what, but Lu Miao clenched his fists slightly and couldn't stop shaking.
Chen Guifen said:
"Zaohua Niang is a kind person and has the skills to deliver babies. Many people in the team have benefited from her kindness."
"Also, raising an orphan and a widow is not only difficult but also pitiful. The masters in the team couldn't bear to see them suffer any injustice, so they pinned them down and beat them up."
Xu Yao's head was bleeding and he would be crippled if not dead.
But you can beat someone, scold them, and vent your anger, but you can't really beat them to death.
Fu Jingyou went to the county because the town clinic was closed at this time.
He Hongjin asked him and two other young men in the team to drive a ox cart to take the people to the county.
After that, we have to wait until Xu Yao gets better and comes back.
Lu Miao really wanted to say, why save such a scumbag?
He was also afraid that He Hongjin was a village cadre and that if this word got out it would have a bad influence on him, so he kept silent.
Lu Miao then asked:
"What's Zaohua's situation now?"
"I got beaten, and Zaohua's mother was also very cruel. This matter is difficult."
Chen Guifen shook her head and sighed.
Lu Miao made a "tsk" sound and frowned between his delicate brows.
It is indeed difficult.
Every era is harsh on women.
No matter how this matter is handled, Zaohua will end up with a bad reputation.
It was inevitable that she would be criticized, but the key point was that if she married Xu Yao, she would not have a peaceful life in the future.
Don’t marry her. People in the village only care about those things. Who would dare to marry her in the future?
If women are more open-minded, they can also rely on themselves.
There are gossips in the village, but leaving the village after two years will not mean there is no way out.
I just don't know what Zaohua and her mother are thinking...
"It's not early anymore, take a rest, and see what happens tomorrow."
"Um……"
She was an outsider in this matter and couldn't interfere rashly. She could only wait and see what happened.
Lu Miao nodded, changed the diapers for the eldest and second babies, and then went to bed to rest.
