But the man actually called Tian Ying as soon as he opened his mouth: "Wife, who is this beautiful girl?"
Tian Ying was very scared of his look and quickly said, "We've bought some cabbage, let's go!"
"You haven't told me who she is yet. Ha, I see. Isn't this Yuzhu? Oh, I haven't seen the little girl for a while. Have you grown so beautiful?"
After he finished speaking, the man reached out and tried to pinch Tian Yuzhu's face.
"Stop it." Tian Ying quickly pushed his hand away.
Zhou Ergou's face was filled with displeasure, but he immediately noticed the bundle in Tian Ying's arms and immediately snatched it away like a hungry dog, opening it: "What is this...so much meat?"
He was shocked. Could it be given by his sister-in-law's family?
Tian Yuzhu didn't move from beginning to end because she was extremely shocked.
First of all, she could never have imagined that the pretty Tian Ying would marry such a man.
What was even more disgusting was that the moment she saw Tuesday's dog, she retrieved some fragments from the original owner's memory.
This week, every time Zhou Ergou went back to the Tian family, he acted like this, trying to take advantage of the silly girl.
So every time she went back to her mother's house, as long as Zhou Ergou was there, Tian Ying would be nervous and would have to bring her silly sister with her, even if she was going to farm. She would never dare to leave her alone at home with Zhou Ergou.
Recalling all this, Tian Yuzhu wished she could break his disgusting neck immediately.
Zhou Ergou had already put the bag on Tian Ying's shoulder. He then said with a big yellow smile, "It seems our trip today was not in vain. I heard from people in the commune that Yuzhu married an officer. That's great! It seems this brother-in-law is very generous. He gave so much meat on the first visit. Let's come here often in the future."
"Yuzhu, you should go back soon!" Tian Ying did not agree, but quickly turned back to persuade the silly girl to go home.
She noticed that there was something wrong in the silly girl's eyes, and suddenly remembered that the old lady said that she would hit people, and she was immediately afraid that she would hit Zhou Ergou.
Tian Ying thought to herself, no matter how good you are at fighting as a woman, you can only scratch a few times, how can you beat a man in the end?
It would be so not worth it if I got punched a few more times by Zhou Ergou.
So he hurriedly pushed the silly girl: "Hurry, go back."
Tian Yuzhu was extremely upset. From what she heard from Zhou Ergou's words, she knew that he was going to strangle her and Shi Zhentang.
Thinking about whether he would come to disturb my grandmother after I followed Shi Zhentang to join the army, I suddenly felt that this was a terrible thing.
But looking at Tian Ying's expression, it is unlikely that she will leave this man.
Thinking of this, Tian Yuzhu had to pretend to be ignorant: "Second brother-in-law, come when you are free."
Yes, come here, I will deal with you when my second sister is not around!
Zhou Ergou's cloudy eyes lit up when he heard his sister-in-law calling him: "Yuzhu is really smarter than before. Okay, okay, come after the New Year when your brother-in-law has no meat to eat. Anyway, your husband is paid by the government, and there is plenty of food at home."
Tian Ying, who was standing aside, was so angry that she wanted to die. The man was shameless, but she had no way to deal with him.
Tian Yuzhu smiled and said, "Second sister, I'm going back now!"
"Okay, let's go back!" Tian Ying breathed a sigh of relief. She watched the silly girl enter the Shi family courtyard.
I looked back and saw Zhou Er dog standing there with his neck stretched out, drooling.
Zhou Ergou felt his wife looking at him, so he looked away as if nothing had happened and said with a smile, "I've always thought Yuzhu was pretty since she was little. Now look at her, she's changed a lot since she grew up. That small waist..."
"Yuzhu's husband is a soldier. As her brother-in-law, you are talking behind her back like this. Aren't you afraid that the country will punish you?"
In order to protect her silly sister, Tian Ying bravely talked back for the first time.
"You're talking nonsense. What did I do? I didn't say anything. You stinky bitch, if you keep nagging me, I'll divorce you."
Zhou Ergou suddenly turned around and raised his hands viciously.
If he hadn't been afraid of being seen at the doorstep of Old Shi's house, he would have slapped him long ago.
But he put his hand down again. If he wanted to fight, he could do it at home. He walked forward cursing.
Tian Ying followed behind him with her head down, tears welling up in her eyes...
Just after they took a few steps out, the door of Old Shi's courtyard opened and Tian Yuzhu walked out.
She didn't go back to the house just now, but watched everything through the crack in the door.
There was a coldness in her eyes at this moment. In fact, it was easy for her to deal with Zhou Ergou, but unfortunately Tian Ying was reluctant to let go.
…
After arriving at the Second Commune, the three brothers of the Shi family went directly to the public brick kiln.
The price of bricks was fixed and there was no need to negotiate. The follow-up service was also very good, and the commune even lent us two ox carts.
We will pull the two ox carts back today, and we will have to pull them again after New Year’s Eve tomorrow.
By the time we finished our journey back, it was almost noon. On the way, we met some villagers who were returning from a commune buying supplies of vegetables.
Everyone looked envious when they saw the bricks pulled by the two ox carts.
In this day and age, those who could use red bricks to build walls and houses were considered to be wealthy families. Most ordinary families used mixed mud to build walls.
As for the roof, those with better conditions can use tiles, while those who are not so well off can use straw.
Although the second and first communes are not close to each other, people there are always familiar with each other, and in the countryside, if you talk to each other about your relatives, they may even be distant relatives.
Then someone recognized them. Aren’t these the eldest and third sons of the Shi family?
"Boss Shi, are these the bricks your family bought?"
"How much does it cost to buy so many bricks?"
The villagers stopped to ask about the family's life. They knew the eldest and third sons of the Shi family, but as for the legendary second son, the one who was an officer in the army...
