Chapter 126: Tooth for tooth

Mingzhu and Wang Cuiju returned home satisfied. After returning to their family compound, they both went home.

Passing by the gate of Su Guimei's house, in her yard, a little boy about four or five years old was picking up mud from the yard and throwing it at Su Guimei, looking extremely happy while doing so.

Su Guimei's thin figure blocked the attack, "Qiangqiang, you can't hit mom."

The little boy didn't change at all, but laughed and shouted: "I'll hit you, I'll beat you to death, you useless waste, so I can change my mother, I'll beat you to death, I'll beat you to death!"

"Qiangqiang..." Su Guimei couldn't stop him, and pulled Liu Qiang, who started crying with his mouth open: "Grandma, this stinky woman hit me!"

Su Guimei was nervous for a moment, and whispered: "Qiangqiang, don't lie, I didn't hit you."

When Mrs. Liu heard the noise, she walked out of the house arrogantly.

When she saw Mingzhu standing outside the courtyard wall, her eyes widened a little.

Seeing Mrs. Liu's eyes, Su Guimei also looked back.

Seeing Mingzhu staring at her mother-in-law with a cold face, her eyes became more colorful, as if the person in front of her was a god who came to save her.

But the next second, she heard scolding: "You unlucky star, you can't even take care of a child, you can't even give birth to one yourself, and you dare to beat my precious grandson? How can you be so vicious?"

Mingzhu said coldly: "Old woman, I just saw with my own eyes that your uneducated precious grandson beat and scolded his mother and even lied!"

Old lady Liu retorted to protect her son: "Bah, my grandson can't lie!"

Mingzhu sneered: "What's impossible? Isn't this a lie?"

As she spoke, she glared at the little brat, "Child, let me ask you, did your mother beat you just now? If you dare to lie, I will find the old monkey tonight. Come and take away your lying bad child!"

The child was so scared that he immediately rushed to the side of Grandma Liu, hugged her thighs tightly and cried, "Grandma, I don't want to be caught by the big monkey!"

Grandma Liu glared at Mingzhu, touched Liu Qiang's head and coaxed him, "There is no big monkey, don't listen to that bad guy."

Mingzhu crossed her arms and looked proud, "Who said there is no big monkey? If you lie again, it will definitely come."

Grandma Liu shouted, "Shut up! I have never seen such a disgusting person as you. Come on, my precious grandson, let's ignore this disgusting woman and go home. Grandma will make you some sugar water to drink."

She said, and led Liu Qiang into the house.

After Liu Qiang entered the room, he turned around and made a big face at Mingzhu, "Fox spirit, shameless stinky fox."

Mingzhu:...

It is impossible for a child to be born with this, it must be taught by adults.

It is true that like donkeys poop like shit, the children raised by the evil-hearted old donkeys are so evil!

Su Guimei came to the door with guilt and whispered: "I'm sorry, Zhuzhu, this child... I didn't teach him well."

Mingzhu retracted her cold gaze and said to Su Guimei with a smile: "What does this have to do with you? Don't say that this is not your child. Even if you gave birth to it, it was badly taught by this old woman."

Mingzhu said, her eyebrows turned, "The little brat taught by this old woman is just uneducated. Okay, sister, don't worry about it, I will handle it myself."

She is not afraid of troublemakers, because she is so good at tit for tat!

Seeing her turn around and go home, Su Guimei cast a grateful look at her.

If it weren't for Mingzhu, she would have been scolded for the whole afternoon for just this matter, and maybe even beaten in the evening.

After Mingzhu came in, she washed the silk mask that she had used on those people today in a basin, boiled it in hot water to disinfect it, and dried it. After that,

she scrubbed the pot clean, took out the big bag of hawthorns that she bought when she came back with Wang Cuiju, washed them, strung them into strings and dried them.

Then she took out a small bowl of white sugar, added water and boiled it, and made candied haws.

In the evening, when the children in the family compound ran out to play together, Mingzhu brought out the candied haws and waved to the group of children -

"Children, come, auntie will treat you to candied haws!"

More than a dozen children, big and small, swarmed over.

Seeing that it was the auntie who distributed meat cakes to everyone last time, everyone was so happy.

Mingzhu distributed a string to each person, and when she saw Liu Qiang also walked over eagerly, but did not dare to ask for it, she raised a kind smile at the corner of her lips and asked: "Why, do you want to eat it too?"

Liu Qiang nodded immediately, took a step forward, and stretched out his hand with eyes full of expectation.

Seeing that several children had run to the side and were happily eating the candied haws, Mingzhu lowered her voice and said to Liu Qiang, "It's not that I can't give you this candied haw, but no one else has scolded me, but you have, so I can't give you this candied haw for free. You have to do something brave, and then I can give it to you."

Liu Qiang asked, "What?"

Mingzhu picked up a branch from the roadside and handed it to Liu Qiang, "Take this, go home and beat your grandma while scolding her for being an old fool!"

Liu Qiang pouted and looked like he was about to cry, "Grandma will beat me!"

"No, you are your grandmother's precious grandson, she can't bear to part with you," she said as she picked up a string of candied haws and took a bite, and praised with satisfaction: "Oh, this candied haws is so sour and sweet, so delicious!"

Liu Qiang saw that the children in the distance were eating so happily, and the little people were greedy!

Mingzhu handed the stick forward again, "As long as you dare to hit her hard, you will have a share of candied haws."

In order to eat the candied haws, Liu Qiang took the stick and turned around and ran back home.

Soon, Mingzhu clearly heard the child's yelling and cursing from the house and... the sound of Mrs. Liu scolding in pain: "Hey, hey, you little bastard, I'm going to beat you to death today!"

Then, Liu Qiang cried out after being beaten, and he complained heartbreakingly: "Mingzhu asked me to beat you!"

Mingzhu chuckled, stood calmly in place, and watched the children eat candied haws.

Mrs. Liu rushed out of the house, ran to Mingzhu and yelled: "Mingzhu, you are simply not a human! How can you teach children to curse? You are really conscienceless..."

Mingzhu looked innocent, "Hey, Auntie, you are wronging me, when did I teach children to curse?"

As she spoke, she looked at a few children not far away and asked, "Children, did your aunt teach you to swear just now?"

The children said in unison, "No." The

older ones also said, "Auntie just treated us to candied haws and loquats."

Mingzhu turned around and looked at Grandma Liu, spread her hands, showing a look of smugness that was so infuriating that she could not bear it. "Look, everyone said no. Is it possible that your grandson learned it from you? Isn't there a saying that goes, "If the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked--"
