When Yao Zhouzheng met Tian Guodong, he did not mention the matter again. Old Mrs. Tian was relieved, and Yao Cuilin was calm, as she had expected.
Tian Congbao and Tian Wangdi came back from school, said hello, washed their hands, went back to their room to do their homework, and didn't come out until dinner.
Yao Zhouzheng looked at Congbao with some curiosity: "Congbao has changed since he started school. He has become much more obedient. He used to be as naughty as a little monkey."
Speaking of this, Tian Guodong felt a little guilty. He clearly felt that since he returned home after falling ill a while ago, Tian Congbao had not been close to him before, and now he was even more distant. Apart from saying hello, there was almost no interaction between them.
Yao Cuilian was also lifeless all day long, which made people angry. She was not as energetic as before when doing things at night. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became: "What kind of meal did you cook? It tastes so bad. You wasted good meat."
Tian Congbao's small body protected Yao Cuilian: "I think it's delicious. If you don't like it, don't eat it."
Tian Guodong slammed his chopsticks on the table fiercely: "You are so rebellious. You dare to talk to me like this? It is true that like mother, like son. I work hard in the fields, and when I come home, you three mother and son behave like this. Are you trying to piss me off to death? I should not have married you, a jinx."
As she said that, she threw the bowl towards Tian Congbao. Yao Cuilian quickly hugged Congbao and blocked it for her.
When Old Lady Tian saw her son trying to hit her precious grandson, she immediately spoke up, "Tian Guodong, what's wrong with you lately? You're so mad all the time, and you even want to hit my precious grandson. Are you crazy? Do you think I'm dead?"
Tian Guodong got even angrier when his mother scolded him: "It's because you spoiled them all day long. Look what has become of this mother and son. I used to think that a harmonious family is the foundation of everything, but now they are simply lawless and give me a hard time every day.
At the beginning, Wang Xu's mother also looked at me in a bad light, but every brick and tile in this house was given by his mother. I didn't have to do any work. Now not only do I have to work in the fields, but you rely on me for support and still have to look at me in a bad light. Where do you get the courage from?
If you hadn't pestered me in the past, hadn't had a child, lied to me that it was a son and ended up giving birth to a money-losing child, would I have married you? He must have left a lot of good things for Wang Xu, they were originally mine. "
When it comes to this, Old Mrs. Tian has nothing to refute. When Wang Xu's mother was alive, the villagers respected her very much and greeted her with smiles when they saw her. The roads in the village were also built with money from his mother, and the blue brick and tile house in his home was also built with money from his mother. It was the first house in the village, and its house was built earlier than Wu Yao's.
Yao Zhouzheng and Liu Xiuni were frightened by this scene. It was the first time they saw Tian Guodong lose his temper in front of them. They didn't know what they said: "Aunt, what's wrong with you? What have you done recently? You made me so angry, and I still wanted to support you. Now looking at your and Congbao's attitude, what you did was not authentic."
When Yao Cuilian heard this, the last glimmer of hope was completely shattered. She laughed at herself and thought, yes, she shouldn't have any illusions about anyone. Now all she had to do was raise Congbao safely.
She coaxed Tian Guodong softly, "Your bowl is broken. I'll get you a new bowl of rice. Let's all eat. I'll do better next time."
Seeing her like this, no one said anything. However, Tian Congbao could not bear to see his mother being wronged, so he threw down his bowl and chopsticks and tried to go into the house without eating. Tian Guodong stopped him and said, "Stop, you are still not convinced. Look at what you are like. If I don't beat you up today, you won't know who your father is."
He glanced around and saw a broom placed by the wall. He took three or two steps over and picked up the broom, ready to hit Tian Congbao. Yao Cuilian could no longer bear it and immediately rushed over to stop him, "Don't be angry with the child. I know you regret looking for me when you see Wang Xu getting better and better, but it takes two to tango. You came to me voluntarily in the beginning. What's the use of regretting now?
I will tolerate it if you hit me. We are husband and wife. I will never allow you to hit the child. At the worst, I will fight with you. "
Tian Guodong was so angry that he said, "Let's fight. I will beat you to death today. Let's see who can fight better."
The broom was whipped towards Yao Cuilian, and Yao Zhouzheng did not dare to stop it, fearing that innocent people would be harmed. He could only persuade her: "Uncle, please talk nicely. It is wrong for you to hit someone. My Yao family is still here, please don't go too far."
Tian Guodong was so angry that he didn't care about these things. He shouted helplessly and angrily: "Get lost! You are also a coward."
Yao Zhouzheng's face turned pale after being scolded: "You are so good, Tian Guodong, don't come to us for help for the rest of your life, and I will never set foot in your house again."
He spat and pushed his bicycle out. Seeing this, Liu Xiuni didn't dare to interfere in other people's affairs and followed Yao Zhouzheng away.
Tian Congbao went to help Yao Cuilian and was beaten by Tian Guodong. When Yao Cuilian saw Yao Zhouzheng leaving, sadness surged in her heart, but she still protected Congbao tightly to prevent him from getting hurt.
Old Mrs. Tian was so anxious that she kept jumping up and down: "Son, don't hurt Congbao, Congbao is my life, please don't hit him."
He stepped forward to stop him, but was knocked away by Tian Guodong. He fell heavily to the ground and couldn't get up. Seeing this, Tian Wangdi hurried to the next door to find help.
Gu Xi and Wang Xu were having dinner. Wang Xu finally had the clay pot rice he had been craving for, as well as the sweet and sour pork ribs made by Gu Xi, which tasted better than what he made himself. Gu Xi looked very proud: "You see, I am very talented, I am just lazy at ordinary times. The dishes I cook must be delicious."
In fact, I spent a long time in the kitchen by myself, and it took me twenty minutes to taste and adjust the taste. Sometimes it was too sour, I added sugar; sometimes it was too sweet, I added vinegar. When it was burnt dry, I added some water. Then, when it became bland again, I repeated the previous steps. It took me twenty minutes to finally get it out of the pot. Fortunately, the final result was satisfactory.
Tian Wangdi suddenly rushed in, looking anxious and nervous: "Gu Zhiqing, please save my mother and brother."
Gu Xi immediately asked back: "What's wrong?"
Tian Wangdi pulled her out and said, "My father is beating someone."
He stopped talking, realizing that it was not appropriate to pull Gu Xi over, and turned back to pull Wang Xu: "Brother, please help me, I beg you, my father is about to beat someone to death."
Wang Xu still didn't respond: "It's none of my business. I'm eating."
Gu Xi realized that the problem must be serious. She had heard the crying of Old Lady Tian next door, as well as the roar of Tian Guodong. She vaguely heard it at the beginning and thought it was just a quarrel, but she didn't expect it to have escalated to the point of fighting.
"Wang Xu, stop eating and come with me to the next door. I'm from the neighborhood committee, and I can't just stand by and watch domestic violence happen. If I go alone, I'll definitely get beaten."
Wang Xu looked at Gu Xi, then turned to Tian Wangdi: "I don't want to have anything to do with the neighbors. Go find the village chief and Secretary Wu."
Seeing Wang Xu like this, Gu Xi didn't force him. She took a wooden stick from the wall and went to the next room. Wang Xu was not calm anymore: "Gu Xi, I'm worried about you being alone."
Before he could finish his words, Gu Xi had already rushed out. Wang Xu had no choice but to run to the next door, where he saw Gu Xi shouting twice to stop hitting Tian Guodong, but Tian Guodong still turned a deaf ear to him. So Wang Xu tried to stop him, only to see Tian Guodong being hit by Gu Xi and preparing to hit Gu Xi back.
He took a quick step forward and snatched the wooden stick from Tian Guodong's hand. Tian Guodong was no match for Wang Xu. When the stick was snatched away from his hand, he realized that the person was Wang Xu. He was a little scared. This kid was heartless. The place where he was hit last time still hurt on a rainy day. He stopped immediately and took a few steps back.
