Chapter 102 The Village Chief's Matters

"I only discovered it half a month ago. After my two daughters fell asleep that night, I suddenly felt that with their breathing, a trace of spiritual energy entered the body."

"Later, I observed carefully and found day by day that whether after they fell asleep or when they were playing during the day, the two daughters seemed to be cultivating all the time, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth kept entering their bodies."

Da Ya's face was full of worry again: "Brother Donglai, do you think our daughter's situation will be harmful to their health?"

Yang Donglai frowned and thought: "Could it be that our two daughters swallowed the Holy Spirit Body?"

Yang Donglai patted her hand: "Don't worry, Da Ya, if we go by what those books say, our daughter's condition will not only have no harm to her body, but she will also have the kind of talent that defies heaven!"

Only then did Da Ya feel relieved. She took a breath and smiled: "As long as the child's health is not affected, then I'll be relieved."

"Ah, village chief, I heard that someone saw you. You are back as expected. Now you are the only one who can help our Cuizhu. Please ask the village chief to persuade that old man of mine!"

At this moment, a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law walked out of the door. They were Wang Zhang, the wife of Wang Dazhu in the village, and his daughter-in-law Zhao Xiaolian.

"It turns out to be the aunt of the Wang family. Sit down and tell me slowly, what happened to Miss Cuizhu?"

In fact, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had already been here three days ago, and Daya hadn't had time to tell Yang Donglai yet.

Wang Dazhu and his wife have a son and a daughter. Their son Wang Tieshu is now married.

The youngest daughter, Wang Cuizhu, married three years ago to a scholar named Meng Changan in Mengjia Village, twenty miles away.

Wang Cuizhu was sixteen years old at the time. She accompanied her elder brother and sister-in-law to the town, and then saw Meng Changan who was selling some paintings and calligraphy there.

Because Wang Cuizhu was studying at the village college, she had a few casual chats with the rather handsome Meng Changan.

Unexpectedly, Meng Changan fell directly in love with Wang Cuizhu, a well-educated and beautiful woman. He hired a matchmaker and came to Wang Dazhu's house in Dahe Village to negotiate a matchmaking proposal.

After Wang Cuizhu heard about it, she was very willing to have this marriage, but her father Wang Dazhu refused to agree to it.

Because Wang Dazhu is her father, how can he not strictly control his daughter's life-long events?

So he directly sent people to Mengjiacun to inquire. Although Meng Changan was a talented scholar, he was more than ten years older than his daughter.

Especially since Meng Changan's family is very poor, that's all.

I heard that Meng Changan's reputation in the village was really bad, and he was confused with a widow in the village.

But Wang Cuizhu went all the way and decided that Meng Changan must marry her. Both father and daughter had strong tempers and personalities.

Unexpectedly, in the end, Wang Cuizhu ignored her objections and held a kitchen knife to her neck. Wang Dazhu had no choice but to agree to the marriage.

But three years later, Wang Cuizhu did not live happily in Mengjia Village. After a while, she found out that Meng Changan not only often beat and scolded her, but also had an affair with a widow in the village, which Wang Cuizhu caught red-handed.

However, in the past three years since Wang Cuizhu married to Mengjia Village, her belly has been unsatisfactory and she has not given birth to a single child.

On the contrary, Widow Liu was pregnant with her husband's child. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Meng Chang'an directly wrote a letter of revision and drove Wang Cuizhu out of Mengjia Village.

Wang Cuizhu knelt in front of Wang Dazhu to repent, but instead of letting her daughter go home, Wang Dazhu scolded her for not listening to her advice and now she deserves it.

I feel so embarrassed that I don't even admit that I have such a daughter.

At this time, Wang Cuizhu had no choice but to live in an abandoned thatched house behind the village. Her mother Wang Zhang and her brother Wang Tieshu took care of everything by bringing her food and supplies every day.

Yang Donglai followed his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law directly to their home.

Originally, the two of them thought that Yang Donglai could persuade Wang Dazhu and give the village chief some face, but Wang Dazhu was really a donkey-tempered man. Although he was polite to Yang Donglai, he refused to speak up when it came to his daughter, let alone talk about it.

It’s women who are reconciled.

"You damn old man. The older you get, the worse your temper is. The village chief even came here in person. You old man doesn't even give the village chief face. Do you really want our only daughter to die outside?

Are you willing to do so!"

Yang Donglai originally said that he was thirsty and there was still no way to reconcile the father and daughter, but when he heard Wang Zhang's last words, he immediately thought of a way and wanted to try it.

Then he told Mrs. Wang and Zhang that he wanted to visit their daughter Wang Cuizhu.

Mrs. Wang Zhang nodded and led him all the way over.

"Daughter, our village chief has come to see you!"

Arriving at a location at the back of the village, there was not even a yard except for a newly-maintained thatched hut, and it was also some distance away from the people living in the village. Yang Donglai frowned subconsciously.

"Village Chief, it turns out you are here. Come inside and sit down."

A woman of eighteen or nineteen years old walked out of the thatched house. She looked very thin and looked malnourished.

Especially if you look carefully, you can see that there are many scars on Wang Cuizhu's neck and the exposed skin on the back of her hands. It's unclear whether they were beaten or caused by injuries.

If we go by what Wang Zhang said before, then Wang Cuizhu must have suffered a lot of hardship and abuse in her husband's family.

"It's good that Miss Cuizhu comes back. If you want, you can go to the tofu workshop tomorrow so you can have something to do."

"It's too unsafe for you, a girl's family, to live in this location. I'll find someone to build another hut at the end of the village. You can live there first. As for your father's place, I'll find a way to follow him.

He communicates.”

Wang Cuizhu choked and wiped her tears: "Thank you, village chief, but I know my father's temper very well."

Wang Cuizhu suddenly thought of something again and said: "Village chief, I, I don't want to work in a tofu workshop. I also want to do some small business in the village like Sister Xiuyu."

"Oh, okay, your idea is good, I support you! Sister Cuizhu, have you thought of anything? Is there anything you need my help with?"

As the village chief, of course the more prosperous and lively his village is, the better. He looked at Wang Cuizhu, picked up the bowl on the table and took a sip of water, gesturing for her to continue.

Seeing the village chief's support for her, Wang Cuizhu's confidence increased a lot, with a look of longing on her face.

"Village Chief, Zhao Tiechui opened a blacksmith shop, and now Ma Xiuyu's family's delicious hodgepodge stall is also very popular. I want to open a grocery store!"

As Wang Cuizhu continued to talk, I didn't expect that this woman was still a good young man with ideals and ambitions.

It may also be that I have had such a character since I was a child, just because I encountered an unfortunate marriage after getting married.

Now I don't have any worries, and with the encouragement of Zhao Tiechui, Ma Xiuyu and others.

Yang Donglai was naturally very happy that Wang Cuizhu had such a dream.

Originally, he was thinking of lending some silver to Wang Cuizhu as capital to start a business.

Wang Cuizhu refused directly, saying that she wanted to start from a young age like Ma Xiuyu.

Finally, Yang Donglai said a few more words of encouragement, stood up and left. Inadvertently, he flicked some colorless and odorless powder on Wang Cuizhu's body.

In the evening, Wang Cuizhu's eldest brother and sister-in-law came to bring her food.

"Brother and sister-in-law, you are here!" Wang Cuizhu was clearing weeds in front of the door. She stood up with a smile to greet her. Suddenly she felt like the world was spinning, and she fell to the ground and passed out.

"Ah! Sister, what's wrong with you, sister?"
