Chapter 91 Sun wants to take ruthless action
Ding Mei returned home crying and complained. She was so aggrieved that she stammered and couldn't speak clearly. It was Ding Xiang who came back later who helped her describe what had happened. However, she did not favor anyone and told the truth.
The fact is that Ding Mei was jealous that the second young master taught Ding Xiaodie horse riding, so she went to someone else's house to beat someone up. Ding Xiaodie had no choice but to fight back and beat her.
After she finished explaining what happened, Dingxiang tilted her head and asked, "Dad, when my sister and cousin were arguing just now, grandma and my uncle and aunt didn't come forward to help. Grandma only scolded her at the very end. And actually, my sister shouldn't have been angry in the first place. So, do you really want to go to my uncle's house and settle the score with them now?"
Ding Xiang's seemingly casual words made Ding Dehu's eyes widen, and he was choked and couldn't say a word.
Because what the youngest daughter said was right, it was indeed Ding Mei's fault. The second young master could pick up whoever he wanted, so what right did she have to interfere?
Furthermore, even if Dingxiang didn't "remind" him, Ding De probably wouldn't go and make trouble with the third brother's family, because their staple food, the sweet potatoes, were still in the hands of the old woman. If the old woman got angry, the whole family would starve.
But Sun didn't think so much. Seeing her daughter being beaten, she couldn't bear it. She turned around and went to find Ding Xiaodie for revenge.
"Mom, mom." Ding Xiang quickly hugged her legs tightly: "It was my elder sister who made the mistake first. If you go, you will only be scolded by grandma..."
"Heh, little thing, when did you learn to turn your elbows outward?" Sun pushed Dingxiang to the ground and said, "Giving birth to you is redundant."
She had always wanted a son, and it was fine that she gave birth to Ding Mei as the first one, but she didn't expect that the second one would be a girl.
The fortune teller at that time said that her second child would definitely be a son. If not, it would mean that this daughter had taken her son's place and was reincarnated.
Unexpectedly, she actually gave birth to a daughter. This was great. Sun had never liked Dingxiang since the day she was born. She always felt that she was the one who took her son's place.
Dingxiang fell to the ground with a thud, her face flushed red. Her butt hurt a lot, but she didn't dare to cry. If she cried, her mother would only beat her harder.
Her father and sister had no intention of pulling her up, so Dingxiang had to stand up by herself and then stood carefully against the wall.
Sun didn't take the fact of pushing her daughter to heart at all. She continued to curse: "The Second Young Master originally had his eyes on Mei'er, but it was Ding Xiaodie who interfered. I didn't expect that she would even dare to hit someone. I must beat her down today."
"return."
Ding De had been enduring the woman's fuss, but when he saw she was really about to leave, he yelled, "Aren't you afraid the old woman will withhold the sweet potatoes from us?"
Sun realized what was happening and was speechless: "Then...then I can't just watch Mei'er get beaten like this."
"Why are you so anxious? Just bear with your anger for a while. A gentleman's revenge is never too late. I don't believe that that damn girl Ding Xiaodie will never be left alone."
“…”
Hearing the man say this, Sun Xiu's anger suddenly subsided a little.
Looking at their daughter like that, although they felt distressed, what could they do? If the old woman acted arrogantly and grabbed the sweet potatoes, they really would have no way to stop her. After all, this was the right given to the old woman by the Lu family.
"Amei, take Dingxiang to the backyard. I want to talk to your father about something."
Sun gritted her teeth and put the stick in her hand back to its original place.
After her two daughters left, she sat down next to Ding De and asked, "Then tell me how to deal with Ding Xiaodie?"
Ding De gritted his teeth, his cheeks puffing out. "Do you think I don't feel bad that she hit Mei'er? She's our precious daughter. Whether we can enjoy our old age depends on her. But if we go to the third sister's house and make trouble now, I'm afraid that old woman will make things worse."
"We can choose not to make a fuss, but we can't just keep silent since Ah Mei was beaten like this. I have to go and ask." Sun's face was full of resentment. Thinking about her past days in Aozi Village, she really regretted not having dealt with Ding Xiaodie properly and not bullying Zhang Xiu properly.
Now that I have escaped famine and changed my environment, and with the support of the Lu family, it is very difficult to take action.
Ding De knew that his wife had to speak out against this, so he had to soften his stance: "Okay, go talk to Zhang Xiu."
Sun glanced at him, then took out a brown paper bag from her bosom and said, "When you have the chance, give this to that damn girl."
Ding De looked at the medicine bag in her hand and was silent for a moment.
On Sun's mother's side, her father was an old veterinarian who was self-taught. Usually, whenever the livestock in the village had some minor problems such as indigestion, old man Sun would go to check them out. After going there a few times, he even made a name for himself.
Later, Old Man Sun went to the mountains to collect herbs and ground them into powder. Sometimes he fed some to livestock, which also helped with digestion.
But Sun herself once said that her father made more than just one or two kinds of medicine, there were many!
The packet of medicine that Sun was holding in her hand right now was an unusually poisonous packet.
She said proudly, "My father once said that a packet of this could kill ten buffaloes. Just imagine what would happen if that damn girl ate it?"
Even if they have the support of the Lu family, they will be powerless to turn the situation around.
"Put it away!"
Ding De was initially shocked by his wife's idea, but then he started thinking: "Then I'm telling you, especially in the next two days, don't do it. My relationship with the third brother hasn't been good lately, and those people will think of me whenever they think of it. Don't forget, although there is no head of the village in Yangliu Town, there are officials and government offices in other places. What if we get arrested?"
Upon hearing this, Madam Sun quickly put the medicine away and whispered, "I know that killing someone means paying with one's life, but think about it, if it weren't for that damned girl, the Second Young Master of the Lu Family would definitely fall for Ah Mei. If we don't do something now, it will be too late to regret it in the future. Is it possible that after that damned girl marries the Second Young Master of the Lu Family, she will also let Ah Mei go in as a concubine? I'm afraid that once she enters the Lu family, not only will she not be able to help Ah Mei, she will probably hold a grudge against us and won't leave us any chance of survival."
"That's right. That damn girl is completely different now. We can't give her a chance to take revenge."
"So, we only have two options. Either..." Sun patted her sleeves filled with medicine and continued, "or drive them out of Yangliu Town."
Forget about being driven out of Yangliu Town. With the Lu family protecting them, they will probably be the ones to leave in the end.
Ding De waved his hands and frowned: "Don't worry, take your time to think about it. If you think too much now, your head will hurt."
Sun warned him worriedly, "Don't tell your eldest brother about our medicine."
"Do you think I'm stupid?"
