Shortly after Shi Zhentang left, someone came and knocked on the door...
Tian Yuzhu thought it was Su Zhen who brought something, but when she opened the door, she saw a group of women from the village, led by the third aunt and the fourth aunt.
It seems that everyone is preparing to go to the fields, and they are holding various farm tools in their hands.
"Yuzhu, is Xiaoli feeling better now?"
"Tsk, what on earth did this girl go through outside to become like this?"
"Yuzhu, you are really kind-hearted. That damn girl used to call you a fool all the time, but now you are getting better and better, and she has become a real fool."
"Yuzhu, don't blame me for being harsh. Shi Xiaoli's current situation is God's retribution. Just leave her alone."
Tian Yuzhu smiled awkwardly!!!
She knew how much the people in Quanshui Village hated Shi Xiaoli, and she also blamed herself for being uncultured and offending people everywhere. She was also disrespectful and was taught by Yang Dahua not to behave like a girl.
At this time, Shi Xiaoli was in trouble, so it was not surprising that those who had been scolded by her came to see the fun and seek some verbal relief.
"You're right. Shi Xiaoli deserves what she's going through. But for my grandmother's sake, please stop coming and watching. Let her bear the consequences quietly. Whether she can get over this sin is her own business. Just don't take her seriously."
Tian Yuzhu said cheerfully, "You're right, Fourth Auntie. Shi Xiaoli was so ignorant before. No matter how many people she offended, this punishment is enough for her."
The implication is that since Shi Xiaoli has already received her retribution, let’s just write off the past!
Fourth Aunt nodded immediately: "Yes, yes, that's what we thought too, that's why we came to show our concern!"
Tian Yuzhu didn't care whether he was really watching the show or just pretending to care.
She felt more annoyed by the large number of people coming to see her, and it wasn't entirely to block Shi Xiaoli.
The others nodded hurriedly: "Yuzhu, you're right. You were able to let go of Xiaoli's previous behavior towards you. Let's not talk about it anymore. They are just trivial matters. Let's just let it go!"
"That's right. It's in the past. For the sake of the old lady, we can't hold on to that hatred forever."
"Oh, right." The third aunt looked gossipy. "Lu Juanjuan is back too. Speaking of which, it was she who took Xiaoli out in the first place. Now she's hurt Xiaoli like this. Why don't you, the Shi family, go and ask for an explanation?"
There is a hint of sowing discord in these words.
Lu Juanjuan was not a good person in the past, and some people in the village also hated her.
If the Lu and Shi families quarrel again now, it would be a good show.
Tian Yuzhu's idea was very simple. For the sake of her grandmother and Shi Zhentang, she treated the case of Lu Juanjuan suspected of trafficking Shi Xiaoli as a case of trafficking in women.
So no matter who Lu Juanjuan abducted and trafficked, as long as she did so, Tian Yuzhu would definitely punish her.
But how she dealt with Lu Juanjuan was her business, and there was no need for everyone to come and cheer for her.
At the moment, she just smiled faintly: "Third Aunt, I'm not sure whether to go to the Lu family to ask for an explanation. Why don't you go next door and ask my grandmother, or ask the third brother when you meet him in the fields?"
"Oh, how can that be? I was just saying it casually." The third aunt looked embarrassed.
The old lady didn't dare to ask because she didn't have the qualifications.
Ask Shi Weiqiang, isn't that courting death? Everyone knows that the bastard likes to talk with his fists. If you're not careful and get hit by his punch, you're dead.
I heard that when she was working earlier, the villagers asked about Shi Xiaoli, and they tentatively asked if Shi Xiaoli was mentally abnormal.
The man was immediately beaten up by Shi Weiqiang.
At this point, the three aunts found that they couldn't get anything out of Tian Yuzhu, and they almost got themselves into trouble.
So he didn't dare to say anything else. He asked a few random questions about the life of the soldiers' families in the army, and then hurried away to go to the field.
Watching the gossips walk away, Tian Yuzhu stood at the door and took a deep breath.
There are one or two eccentric wives in the military district, but it’s not tiring to get along with this group of women. It seems like they only have three things in their lives.
Men, kids, and gossip!
Apart from this, there seems to be nothing beautiful in the eyes.
Just at this moment, a familiar figure hurried towards the courtyard.
"Third brother?"
What's going on? You just got out of bed not long ago, why are you back?
Shi Weiqiang's face was very ugly. When he approached, he put down the hoe on his shoulder and threw it on the ground: "Second sister-in-law, starting from tomorrow, I won't go to the fields."
"Why, did you fight with someone?"
"Hmm."
Tian Yuzhu sighed.
Now she understood the expression on Third Aunt's face just now. She was asked to go to the Third Aunt to inquire about the affairs of the Shi and Lu families. She was so scared that she almost trembled.
It seems that they already know that Shi Weiqiang was fighting with someone.
There is no need to say why they fought. It must have been because of Shi Xiaoli.
But what Tian Yuzhu despised most was cowardice: "Third brother, you have to change your bad temper in the future. If you have something to say, just talk about it and reason with others. Don't use violence at every turn. If you beat someone to death, your life will be ruined. It's not worth it."
"They said rude things, saying Xiaoli was mentally ill." Shi Weiqiang gritted his teeth and said, "I'll beat anyone who dares to say that in the future."
"Oh, if you're brave enough to use your fist to shut up the whole village, let me ask you, how many can you hit with one fist?"
"Of course one."
"Then let me ask you again, how many people in this village do you think think Shi Xiaoli is mentally ill?"
“…”
Shi Wei looked at her stutteringly, and after a long while, he stammered, "Based on Xiaoli's behavior of climbing the tree this morning, I guess... I guess the whole village thinks she's mentally ill."
"That's it, then. Do you still want to beat up everyone in the village, young and old, male or female?" Tian Yuzhu raised her eyebrows.
"Second sister-in-law, what should I do? You didn't see the looks those people gave me, but it made me sick just looking at them." Shi Weiqiang looked like he was about to cry.
Tian Yuzhu taught him: "Pick up your hoe and go back to farming. Do what you need to do. You are here to do hard labor and earn your share of the food, not to see their disgusting faces. Every time they say something unpleasant, tell the village party secretary. Who is afraid of who, right?"
"If you don't go to the fields to work, then those with ulterior motives will succeed. They'll think our Shi family is a bunch of cowards and we're doomed."
"Third brother." Tian Yuzhu looked at him with encouragement and said firmly, "Listen to your second sister-in-law. You have to work hard, stand up, and support the Shi family."
After hearing these words, Shi Weiqiang's blood immediately boiled: "Second sister-in-law, you said it very well. I will listen to you."
"Well, go ahead, come on."
"Don't worry!"
Just like that, Shi Weiqiang, who had returned with a hoe on his back and looked dejected three minutes ago, went to the fields with high morale three minutes later.
