189: Are fools not worthy of marrying a wife?
Yu Jiahui turned around and was about to leave.
Li Dasong went up and pulled him.
As a result, Yu Jiahui knocked Li Dasong down with a punch.
Li Dasong lay face down in the soft mud, which made Captain Yang burst into laughter again. The laughter could be heard five miles away.
Li Dasong was almost knocked to death. It took him a while to catch his breath. He slowly pulled his face out of the mud. His whole face had turned the color of liver.
Yu Jiahui ignored him and went back to work in a swagger.
As soon as he turned around, Yu Jiahui was overjoyed. That punch felt so good!
If he dares to bother me again, I will beat him!
Beat him until he dares not come!
If I want my daughter to marry his stupid son, it’s easier to make him eat shit!
Yu Jiahui ignored everything and went back to work happily. At this time, the soybeans in the field had sprouted and needed to be watered. The tractor had a very advanced water pump, which was used to pump water from the shuapaozi (a kind of pond in the Great Northern Wilderness) for irrigation.
Yu Jiahui thought that since Li Dasong had been beaten, he probably wouldn't dare to bother him for a while.
However, Li Dasong was really worried about his stupid son.
He probably didn't feel the pain after being punched, and came to bother me again not long after.
This time a crowd of people gathered to watch. They stopped working and gathered around to watch the fun.
Li Dasong saw that more and more people were coming and started to act more violently. He pointed at Yu Jiahui and said:
"He's my relative, Yu Jiahui, from my hometown. We wrote to each other and agreed that he would marry his daughter to my son. How come he just disappeared after the meeting and refused to acknowledge it? How could you do that? Where's your conscience? You don't keep your word!"
A farmer who was watching the fun asked:
"Really, Lao Yu, is this true?"
Yu Jiahui: "Bullshit, that's not happening!"
Li Dasong stretched his neck and said, "Of course it's there! It's written in black and white. The letter is still at my house!"
Another farmhand pondered:
"But, Old Yu, Old Li's son is actually quite good. He drives a truck at the headquarters. He's a truck driver and a veteran. He's a perfect match for your daughter. Your little girl is also very smart!"
Yu Jiahui was not so angry this time. He sneered and looked at Li Dasong and asked:
"Why, you want my daughter to marry your driver's son?"
Li Dasong was a little deflated and whispered:
"No, it's not."
Yu Jiahui deliberately asked:
"No, then do you have other sons?"
Li Dasong stopped talking.
Another farmhand suddenly thought of something and asked with wide eyes:
"Old Li, you're not going to find a wife for your youngest son, are you?"
Li Dasong asked back with a sullen face:
"What's wrong? What's wrong with me finding a wife for my youngest son?!"
“Oh hahahahahahahaha——”
“Wahahahaha——”
“Hey, hahahaha——”
The farmers and workers nearby all laughed out loud, some even fell over laughing.
Some even fell to the ground and rolled around in the mud, laughing.
Li Dasong felt even more embarrassed when he saw the other person laughing.
They must be laughing at his son's stupidity. Don't fools deserve to marry?!
Do fools deserve to be single?
These people are going too far!
Li Dasong had never lost face in front of so many people before. His face turned pale and blue, and the anger rising in his chest almost burned him.
Another person who fell to the ground laughing held his stomach and said:
"Hahaha, your Anzi actually wants to marry my girl. Hahaha, my girl is smart, pretty, hardworking and capable. She can marry anyone she wants, but she actually wants to marry your Anzi. Hahaha—"
"That's right, you're just dreaming. This girl is so smart, she's almost a good match for your eldest son, but she actually wants to marry your youngest son?"
"That's what a toad wants to eat a swan's flesh!"
“——”
Everyone was talking at once, making Li Dasong's face even uglier. He wished he could find a hole to crawl into.
He couldn't afford to lose face anymore, so he pointed at Yu Jiahui and said:
"If you have the guts, we'll see!"
After saying that, he swung his arms and turned away.
Everyone laughed for a while, no one took it seriously, and then dispersed to go back to work.
——
Yu Erye stayed at home and did all the work he was supposed to do according to Xu Ying's instructions.
Although these chores were very detailed and annoying, and were jobs only women could do, there was no other way. In order to avoid being beaten or scolded, Yu Erye still learned to do them.
He took apart the bedding, washed it at the riverside, and took it home to dry. The hard, black cotton quilt was also hung on the fence wall in the yard to dry. He also carried water home several times.
After he had almost finished all the assigned work, Xu Ying still didn't let him sit idle and asked him to go collect firewood.
Yu Erye had no choice but to twist a hemp rope and go to the woods to collect firewood.
There was no hatchet or axe at home, so we could only collect firewood.
Oh, Yu Erye remembered. By the way, didn’t he and his elder brother hide a lot of firewood near the Ninth Company?
When Du Lianxi from the Ninth Company first came to buy firewood from them, they set up a base on a big pine tree and piled the firewood stolen from Li Dasong's house on the branches of the pine tree.
It was originally just a temporary emergency measure, but later it really became a place where they stored firewood.
Up to now, we have collected at least 70 or 80 kilograms of firewood, and they are all real thick firewood, not small sticks.
When I left with my elder brother that day, I was in such a hurry that I forgot about the firewood.
Now I suddenly thought, it would be a shame to throw away so much firewood. They cut it with so much effort, right?
Got to get it back?
There was too much firewood, and it was impossible for one person to go alone. Yu Erye didn't dare to ask his mother to do the work, so he could only ask his sister.
Yu Erye called Yu Xiaoye and told him about this.
When Yu Xiaoye heard this, he realized that he definitely couldn’t throw away all that firewood, he had to get it back!
What’s the big deal about having too much firewood? It would be great to save it for heating the kang in winter!
Yu Xiaoye greeted Xu Ying and said that he would go with his second brother to get the pile of firewood back.
After hearing this, Xu Ying stared at Yu Erye with a worried look on his face.
Yu Erye felt uneasy when being stared at. He didn't know why his mother looked at him like that, as if she didn't think he was a good person.
Finally, Yu Xiaoye said:
"Mom, it's okay. My second brother and I will be back soon. It will be fine."
Xu Ying slammed the kitchen knife onto the chopping board:
"If your sister comes back with even a hair missing, you'll be punished!"
Yu Erye shuddered. He dared not, dared not, absolutely not!
My dear, you have to take good care of your hair!
The brother and sister left the Eighth Company and walked together to the Ninth Company to get firewood.
While walking on the road, Yu Xiaoye deliberately asked with a smile:
"Second brother, could it be that you deliberately tricked me into the Ninth Company and wanted to hand me over to Li Dasong's family so that you could get a new job?"
The second brother was obviously shocked by this:
"ah?!"
