Chapter 105 I can't stand it!
"That's right, can't I just come to you with money and buy flies to eat?"
“…”
Everyone was making a lot of noise here, and someone happened to see a fly flying around, and finally landed on the edge of the big pot of tofu pudding.
The sticky tofu pudding stuck to the fly's legs. After struggling for a while, the fly finally fell completely into the pot.
When he thought about how he had just eaten so voraciously without even looking, and had no idea how many flies he had swallowed, one person felt nauseous, and after dry heaving a few times, he made a sound.
Crash...
It's a mess.
A pungent smell suddenly filled the air.
The people around didn't care about the quarrel. They just pinched their noses and hid away with disgust on their faces.
Zhang Dabao also subconsciously took two steps back, but was tripped by a stool under his feet.
With a plop, Zhang Dabao sat down in the tofu pudding pot...
Although the tofu pudding is not hot, in order to preserve its flavor, firewood is placed in the simple stove under the pot to keep it warm, especially the edge and bottom of the pot, which still have a certain temperature.
The screams like slaughtering pigs floated over the entire meeting.
The volume at one point overwhelmed the sound of the suona and gongs and drums on the stage. ——Sun Ergou looked at Jiang Mixia and Song Jingyun in front of him, his face full of embarrassment.
He was a coward in front of Jiang Mixia and Song Jingyun, but he was still a tyrant who could rob and steal. Now that he was bullied by Zhang Dabao, he didn't dare to say a word. He was like a quail, which was really embarrassing.
"Why did you stop that man just now because of the six cents?" Jiang Mixia expressed the doubts in her mind.
"That person is not kind. He said whatever the price was. You can't charge more just because someone is hard of hearing." Sun Ergou replied with his neck stiff, "That's too heartless."
"Aren't you usually a bad person?" Jiang Mixia raised her eyebrows.
"I am evil-hearted and I show it openly. Whether it's stealing, robbing, or beating people, I admit it and I won't make excuses. I won't do those things that involve cheating behind people's backs and then denying them in public..." Sun Ergou argued.
Jiang Mixia, "..."
So we have to praise him for being upright?
Seeing Jiang Mixia's ugly face, Sun Zhuzi hurriedly explained in a low voice, "Sister Xia, Ergou didn't really want to steal or rob, he really had no choice..."
"Ergou's mother died two days after giving birth to her due to heavy bleeding. His father married a stepmother who disliked him and either beat or scolded him. She would not let him eat when she was unhappy. Ergou grew up eating at other people's houses in the village."
"Later, Ergou's stepmother felt ashamed and said that Ergou had food to eat at home, but he went out to eat at this restaurant and that restaurant. She deliberately ruined her reputation as a stepmother and asked people in the village not to give him food. Ergou's father also beat him several times."
"Besides, every household in the village was engaged in farming, so there wasn't much food for Ergou to eat. Gradually, Ergou had nothing to eat. He could only pick apples from this tree, pick persimmons from that forest, and take cakes from other children. He would also steal eggs from other people's homes from time to time."
"We know this is not good and seems unkind, but Ergou is really hungry. He bullies others because he has been bullied since he was a child. If he doesn't bully others in return, he will still be bullied by others..."
Sun Zhuzi spoke pitifully, but Sun Ergou's expression looked very ugly.
As a bully kid, he has his own pride.
Sun Zhuzi now told all his shameful things, as if tearing off his last piece of fig leaf and exposing himself completely to others.
Especially in front of Jiang Mixia and Song Jingyun, her former "enemies" who she now almost regards as her elder sister and brother-in-law.
I see.
No wonder Sun Ergou grew up to be like this.
After listening to this, Jiang Mixia nodded thoughtfully.
Song Jingyun, who was standing by, burst into tears and sobbed, "My wife, my wife, this is too pitiful..."
"How can there be such cruel parents in this world who don't care about the life or death of a child? No one can tolerate such a thing as starving!"
Anyway, Song Jingyun couldn't bear it!
"My dear, Ergou is so pitiful, he doesn't even have food to eat. Why don't we help him? We have so much food at home, it won't be a problem if there is one more person to feed."
"Okay, my lady..."
Jiang Mixia, "..."
When he sees others are pitiful, he thinks about helping them. He is really a kind-hearted son-in-law.
But then again, speaking of today's incident, what can we say about Sun Ergou? It's true that he steals things and bullies other children to steal their food and money, but at the same time, it's also true that he hates others doing bad things in secret.
It can be seen that his heart is not particularly evil, but because of his original family and the living environment since childhood, he grew up into the crooked tree he is today.
Overall, there is still room for trimming and the possibility of continuing to grow upwards.
The most important thing is that the little son-in-law opened his mouth...
Jiang Mixia thought for a moment and said, "Have you heard of the bamboo weaving workshop in our Jiangjia Village?"
"I've heard of it." Sun Ergou nodded, "It's owned by Sister Xia's family."
"This workshop is now quite large and needs a lot of people. You can follow me to the workshop. You can stay in the workshop at night to watch over things and do odd jobs in the workshop during the day. As for the three meals a day..."
Jiang Mixia said, "Just eat at home for now, and the money will be deducted from your wages as usual."
"Sister Xia means that you want me to work in the workshop?" Sun Ergou looked at Jiang Mixia in disbelief.
"What, you don't want to go?" Jiang Mixia asked back.
"No, no." Sun Er shook his head like a rattle.
How could I not want to? I really want to go.
A place to sleep, work to do, and food to eat...
He no longer had to look for food around the world, no longer had to steal things from other people's homes, no longer had to snatch food and pocket money from other children, and no longer had to bully other children in order to pretend to be a hedgehog and make everyone afraid of him.
In fact, from what Jiang Mixia said, he should be paid.
This is no different from pie in the sky! But...
Sun Ergou scratched the back of his head again and again, and looked at Jiang Mixia, "But, my reputation is so bad, will Sister Xia trust me to use me?"
"Say that." Sun Zhuzi was so anxious that he kept nudging Sun Ergou with his elbow. "Since Sister Xia is willing to hire you, it must be because she thinks you are a good person and doesn't care about your reputation. What are you asking?"
"Zhu Zi is right, no need to ask." Song Jingyun also nodded.
The answer is that his wife is kind-hearted and likes to help others!
Jiang Mixia, "..."
It was getting late, so Jiang Mixia and Song Jingyun prepared to take Sun Ergou back home so that they would not be late for lunch.
