It seems that the beating Mai Hongcai received before was not in vain.
Half an hour later, the sound inside stopped.
Mai Hongcai stood up, pushed open the gate, and said to Mai Xiangdong, "Uncle, you can come in."
Mai Xiangdong originally wanted to say that he would not go in today, but his second son and his sons were there, and he didn't want to leave them and go away alone.
So, I had no choice but to go in.
Before going in, he repeatedly asked Mai Hongcai in a low voice:
"Hongcai, are you sure your sister is okay now?"
Mai Xiangdong is the captain of Lianhua Village. If he was beaten and his face was covered with bruises, he would be very embarrassed.
Mai Hongcai patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, uncle, I have experience, I will definitely get it right."
Mai Xiangdong followed Mai Hongcai inside and saw that Mai Sui had indeed "returned to normal".
At this moment, he is sitting leisurely on a bamboo chair under a tree, fanning himself.
The other three, including Mai Laosan and Mai Xiangnan, were lying on the ground in a mess.
I didn't even dare to shout out in pain and could only whimper softly.
I was afraid of offending the big devil Mai Sui again.
When Mai Sui saw Mai Hongcai coming in, she gave orders like a queen:
"Except for Mai Lao San, everyone else who was beaten will be given two steamed buns as compensation."
"Okay, sis."
Mai Hongcai received the order and quickly ran into the kitchen to get the buns.
The buns were taken out of the steamer, still steaming, and I could smell the aroma of meat. They looked very tempting.
Mai Xiangdong was holding the four big meat buns that he got in exchange for his son being beaten, and his expression was indescribable.
Mai Hongcai: "Uncle, these two belong to second uncle. I think it may be difficult for him to carry them now. Please help him carry them."
Mai Xiangdong: ...
The atmosphere in the courtyard was a little awkward for a moment.
As the patriarch of the Mai family, Mai Xiangdong has to say something.
However, looking at the tragic scene before him, he did not dare to blame Mai Sui for anything.
Otherwise, he would lie down before we could even say a few words, which would be terrible!
So, he stood not far from the door and carefully asked Mai Sui if he felt uncomfortable or had a headache again.
Mai Sui was confused: "No, it's fine."
Mai Xiangdong wanted to say something else but was interrupted by his eldest son Mai Juncai.
I only heard him pleading in a low voice: "Dad, please take me home quickly, I feel like I'm dying!"
Mai Liangcai also crawled over and said, "Dad, I was wrong. I shouldn't have disobeyed you."
Mai Xiangnan, a 40-year-old man, looked at his elder brother with tears in his eyes as if he was a child, hoping that he would take him away quickly.
He doesn't want to be here at all now.
It's so fucking scary!
Several times, he thought he was going to die.
In the end, he didn’t die, but his life was worse than death!
I don’t know where this girl Mai Sui got such strength from. She was in so much pain that he doubted his life!
He was not sure whether Mai Sui would get sick again later, but he just wanted to leave here as soon as possible!
Seeing this, Mai Xiangdong could only say to Mai Sui: "Uh...it's getting late. I see you haven't had dinner yet. Why don't I take them back first?"
Mai Sui smiled innocently and kindly: "Uncle, you can take the person back.
However, I would like to remind you that you'd better not interfere in my family affairs, otherwise don't blame me for being rude! "
Under Mai Sui's dagger-hiding smile, Mai Xiangdong had no time to argue and quickly agreed:
"Okay, okay, we'll be leaving first then."
"Go." Wheat Ear mercifully let them go.
Several people supported each other and walked out. As soon as they walked out of the door, Mai Laosan's voice came from behind: "Brother, don't leave me!"
Mai Xiangdong: ...
What do you mean, don't leave you behind? This is your home!
But when he turned around and met the admiring eyes of Mai Lao San, Mai Xiangdong's sense of responsibility as the eldest brother suddenly surged in his heart.
Risking being beaten, he turned around and went back to bring Mai Lao San out with him.
Mai Sui watched this scene and said nothing.
Because she knew that Mai Laosan was pretending, Mai Xiangdong was soft-hearted and was deceived.
Mai Laosan has been with Mai Sui for such a long time, and this is not the first time he has been beaten. Of course, he knows Mai Sui's habits.
Since the fight has already happened, it means that today's matter is over and Mai Sui will not cause trouble for it again.
but!
He has to eat tonight!
I had worked in the fields all day and was exhausted. I only had two sweet potatoes for lunch. How could I not eat at night?
However, Mai Sui was a man of his word. Even though he had been beaten, since he had been told not to have dinner, he would definitely not give it to him.
Then he can only go to his eldest brother's house to eat.
Mai Xiangdong brought the four injured people home. Tian Guifen looked at their miserable state and was so frightened that she trembled as she spoke: "What happened?"
Guo Hongmei and Song Xiaojuan burst into tears when they saw their husbands were injured like this.
"Who the hell did this? He even dared to hit people from our Mai family!" Guo Hongmei said angrily while crying.
These injuries obviously resulted from being beaten.
This is Lotus Village, and her father-in-law is the village captain. Anyone who dares to mess with this must want to die!
Tian Guifen was also very anxious and kept asking her husband: "Old Mai, please tell me, what's going on?"
Mai Xiangdong sighed deeply: "In Lianhua Village, except for the people of our Mai family, who else dares to touch my brother and son?"
Guo Hongmei immediately thought of the gossip circulating in the village, and then remembered that her husband and father-in-law had gone to look for wheat ears.
So he asked, "Was it the wheat ears that did it?"
Mai Xiangdong nodded awkwardly.
Hearing this, Guo Hongmei cried even more aggrievedly.
"How could Mai Sui be like this? She's crazy, that's all. It's ok for her to beat up Uncle San and Hong Cai at home, but why did she beat up my man?"
Mai Laosan: .....Niece-in-law, I'm still here. Do you want to listen carefully to what you said?
Mai Xiangdong placed six large meat buns on the table and said, "This is Mai Sui's apology."
As soon as Mai Liangcai returned home, he felt that the pain in his body was not as severe. He didn’t know if it was a psychological effect or what.
He took a bun, put it in his wife Song Xiaojuan's hand, and said:
"Wife, you're still pregnant, don't cry, I'm fine.
Mai Sui has thin arms and legs, so it didn't hurt at all when he hit people. I just didn't fight back.
Come and try this bun, I got it in exchange for being beaten, it’s just the right thing to nourish your body.”
When Song Xiaojuan heard this, her tears fell even harder.
Then, at her husband's request, she took a small bite of the bun: "Mm, it smells really good, you eat it too."
Song Xiaojuan handed the bun to her husband's mouth.
But Mai Liangcai refused and pushed the buns back: "I don't want to eat them, I'll give them all to you."
Watching his wife eating buns, Mai Liangcai no longer felt any pain.
Everyone, who was caught off guard by the dog food, fell into collective silence.
Guo Hongmei, in particular, was stunned and felt like she couldn't cry anymore. Her tears hung on her eyelashes and were about to fall. She didn't know how to react.
It was obvious that Mai Juncai didn’t love his wife as much as his younger brother. He just felt a little sour in his teeth and rolled his eyes calmly.
Guo Hongmei looked at her husband and then at her brother-in-law. They were born to the same parents, so why was there such a big difference between them?
She immediately stopped feeling sorry for him. What was wrong with a beating for a stinky man? He didn't have any broken arms or legs.
Besides, the one who hit people was Mai Sui, and even her father-in-law couldn’t do anything about it, so what could she do!
