Tang Shiyue said seriously, "If you want to pay, you have to consider what the matter is. If it's grandma's birthday, I will definitely send her a birthday gift, or if I heard that my uncle was in trouble, I would not hesitate to help him, but... this matter is clearly suspicious, and grandma came to me and made a scene without any explanation. If I pay at this time, wouldn't others think I'm guilty? So no matter what you say, I will never pay."
She didn't explain much, just took a step back and said, "That's it, goodbye." Then she closed the gate.
There was another commotion outside.
Mrs. Sun cursed a few more times, and then seemed to be pushed away.
She now came to her senses and realized that this matter must be related to Tang Shuizhi.
She turned around and ran to Tang Shuizhi's parents' home, where there was another big fuss.
Tang Shuizhi's parents are honest people and cannot scold her. Moreover, they roughly know why Tang Shuizhi came back before, so they feel a little guilty and think that this matter may be related to Tang Shuizhi.
After arguing for a long time, the two sides finally agreed to go to the Meng family in town to ask.
Mother Sun forced Tang Shuizhi's father to take the silver, and feeling somewhat proud, she led them back.
When he got home, Tang Shijin was sitting on the kang, rubbing his feet with a painful look on his face. He just said, "Grandma, my feet hurt so much, please wait for me to recover before going."
...
...
Grandma Sun was immediately distressed: "My dear grandson, you don't have to go, just study at home, grandma will go!"
She took Old Man Tang and Big Brother Tang with her, and asked a young man who had just been there to lead the way, and borrowed a mule cart from the clan leader's house.
When they arrived in the town, Tang Shuizhi said the same thing, saying that she had never seen him. Mrs. Sun naturally didn't believe her. Tang Shuizhi immediately called the doorman over, and the doorman also said that he had never seen him and had no idea about it.
Mrs. Sun was also puzzled. When they found the clinic, Tang Yongfu's leg had been bandaged and he was conscious.
Grandma Sun asked anxiously, "What happened? Who hit you? Tell me now!"
Tang Yongfu shuddered suddenly.
It’s the Meng family.
He knew it was the Meng family, and the other party did not hide it at all.
They said that he stole the wine, which was brewed by the Meng family according to a recipe, but in the end, thousands of kilograms of wine all went bad, and tens of thousands of taels of silver were thrown into it. Not saving his life was already a good deal for him.
Tang Yongfu was stunned when he heard this.
He knew that it must be Tang Shiyue who had used a dirty trick, but what could he do? He didn't dare to do anything!
He didn't even dare to confront the Meng family. He couldn't even think about earning a few taels of silver. He couldn't possibly earn that much in his lifetime.
Moreover, if he heard correctly, the other party suspected that he was colluding with Tang Shiyue?
Fortunately, he didn't have time to explain, because from what the other party said, if he hadn't considered Tang Shiyue, he would have taken his life directly!
He was bound to suffer this loss in silence.
So when Granny Sun asked him, he became very annoyed and said, "I was unlucky. I ran into a fight! Don't ask anymore!"
Grandma Sun was furious, "You're paying me without asking! I've saved all my life, but you've ruined it all. You've caused me so much trouble... I can't even ask you!"
The two argued for a long time, but the matter was still unclear.
When she heard that she would have to spend more money to stay in the clinic, Mrs. Sun was unhappy. She "borrowed" a lot of money from Tang Shuizhi's family, paid the consultation fee, got the medicine, and asked someone to carry Tang Yongfu onto the mule cart and go back.
It was already dark when they delayed. The people from Tang Shuizhi's family didn't care, as did those who helped, led the way, and even the grandson of the clan leader who drove the cart. They were reluctant to even treat them to a meal and just rushed home on an empty stomach.
It was really incompetent, and everyone was a little upset, but they were embarrassed to say anything because they were considering the family's problems. But next time, they would not come to help such a family.
He was crying all the way. Just as she reached Xiaoyue Village, she heard a few wolf howls, which sounded very close!
He's crying scared me back at that moment.
The next moment, there was a sound of wind, and the mule was startled suddenly. It stood up, fluttered and howled for a while, and the carriage shook violently. Tang Yongfu in the mule cart screamed loudly, and Mrs. Sun and the daughter-in-law who were sitting in the front were also thrown off.
The next moment, a dark shadow pounced on Grandma Sun.
Mrs. Sun suddenly let out a scream, but her voice broke halfway through, sounding extremely miserable.
With the swaying light from the front of the car, everyone could clearly see a pair of sparkling green eyes!
It's a wolf! It's a wolf!
At this moment, they didn't even have a sickle, so they could only shout loudly. Old Man Tang and several others stomped their feet and shouted desperately. The wolf shook its head and bit off a piece of meat, then turned and ran away.
The piece of meat was actually not very big, but Mrs. Sun was so scared and in pain that she collapsed to the ground, unable to speak, with blood all over the floor.
By the time the group rushed back to the village, it was already midnight.
Tang Yongfu fell and stumbled so much that the boards he was tied with came out. He had already fainted from the pain, and Mrs. Sun's blood had already spilled out, amounting to half a basin.
In the middle of the night, a group of people rushed to the village doctor's house. When they turned on the lights, several people burst into tears, feeling extremely scared.
The people nearby were also woken up, and someone came over to ask about it. When they heard that Grandma Sun was bitten by a wolf, the daughter-in-law was stunned on the spot, and kept saying, "It happened again! It happened again!"
The person next to him was still in shock: "What did you say?"
"She kept her oath! Grandma Sun said that if she went to see Tang Dangjia again, she would be drowned, bitten by wolves, and struck by lightning! Last time she was drowned, this time she was bitten by wolves... and next time..."
The room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Even Mrs. Sun was so frightened that she opened her mouth wide and was speechless.
The others, especially those who were with her, were trembling with fear.
Yes, there were so many people, but the wolf only pounced on her and bit her! This... this is unacceptable! It can only make sense if she offended Lady Fu and God punished her!
Mrs. Sun felt so guilty and remorseful that she burst into tears.
It wasn't until the next day that Tang Shiyue found out about this.
Seriously, the Meng family was even more "out of touch with the world" than she had imagined? They just broke Tang Yongfu's leg to vent their anger, but didn't ask him to pay? According to the theory of the bad guy, he should force Tang Yongfu to pay, and then Tang Yongfu would come to her and complain. This is the normal course of events, right?
They let him off so easily, which shows that they are wealthy and reasonable.
And there is Mrs. Sun.
Fortunately, there were eyewitnesses this time, otherwise, even if she was bitten by a wolf, people might still suspect her swordplay... But why did the wolf only bite her?
She held her chin and thought for a while, thinking that maybe Mrs. Sun had come into contact with Tang Yongfu and had blood on her body.
According to them, He and Tang Yongfu were sitting in the car, while Sun Po and another daughter-in-law were outside. If the wolf came over, it might only bite her.
But I still have to thank God.
In this age of reverence for gods and Buddhas, the more mysterious Lady Fu's name becomes, the more beneficial and safer it will be for her.
After all, she might bring out more and more things in the future, things that are completely inexplicable given her identity as a teenage country girl.
And a blessed lady who is blessed by God does not need to explain anything.
…………
The Meng family winery poured out several thousand kilograms of wine, and the stench was terrible. Many people knew about this.
Of course, Shopkeeper Shen, who had been paying attention to this matter, also knew about it.
When he came over, Tang Shiyue was eating natto.
She has recently become interested in soybeans and is exploring many different ways to eat them.
Natto is not a Japanese product, but a local product that has existed since the Qin and Han dynasties.
This thing, too, is loved deeply by those who love it, but those who don’t love it can’t even stand the smell of it.
The traditional method is to wrap the steamed soybeans with straw, while the modern method is to directly use Bacillus natto, also known as Bacillus subtilis.
Tang Shiyue used neither of them.
Add about twice the amount of water to the soybeans, put them in a clay pot and simmer on low heat for about three hours, until the soybeans can be pressed into a paste with your fingers. Then pour them into a bowl, add a little boiling water, and cover them with a layer of film.
The membrane should be breathable, and then cover it with a lid.
This process actually requires constant temperature, so Tang Shiyue placed it next to the stove. The stove is never turned off day or night, and it is placed farther away when cooking. In short, it is ensured to remain warm.
After about two days, white frost will appear on the soybeans. If you stir them with chopsticks, they will become silky and can be eaten now.
Tang Shiyue gave a small bowl to Shopkeeper Shen. As they ate, Shopkeeper Shen told her in vivid detail what had happened in the Meng Family Winery.
Tang Shiyue just smiled and said, "The Meng family is really rich and powerful. They just threw away 10,000 taels of silver."
Shopkeeper Shen laughed and said, "You can't even draw a tiger by copying a cat. This is your ability. I, Shen, am convinced." He gave her a thumbs up.
Then he glanced at her and said casually, "There is one more thing, Madam County Magistrate. Recently, a Tang Family Wine Shop was opened. Did you know about this?"
She simply said, "I know, mine."
Shopkeeper Shen's face changed, he stood up suddenly, and slammed the bowl: "Master Tang! We have a contract! Do you think I, Shen, am easy to bully? If you dare to sell wine under my nose, I will make you unable to sell it!"
