Chapter 153
These women were the ones hired by Ma Shun's daughter-in-law to help with the embroidery work. They came to hand over the embroidery items and stayed in the yard waiting to be paid.
Hearing the words of Ma Shun's daughter-in-law in the main room, she immediately became alert and "suddenly" gathered around the door and window of the main room. Looking at the tense situation inside, she couldn't help but whisper.
"Do these two people really don't want to pay us? Then wouldn't our work be in vain?"
"Two kids dare to extort our wages?"
"Who is this person that Sister-in-law Ma is looking for? He dares to blackmail him into coming to the village chief's house."
"That's right, if I had known better, I wouldn't have taken this job. The time was so tight. In order to finish the embroidery on time, I didn't cook properly for the children all day long. I only made do with a few mouthfuls of dry food for them."
The "buzzing" voices in the yard reached Suxue's ears word by word. Ma Shun's wife was using these people to put pressure on her.
Suxue sneered in her heart, "Mrs. Ma, except for this unqualified one, I can pay you all the other wages."
Ma Shun's wife said arrogantly: "Then you will marry me now."
Suxue looked at her distrustfully, "Mrs. Ma, tell me clearly that this embroidery is damaged, and we will give you the money."
Ma Shun's wife became impatient and insisted: "One code will be the same, and we will settle the money first."
Ma Zhen tugged on Ma Shun's wife's sleeves and said anxiously: "Mom, you can't just give them the labor for the embroidered knot. I also need labor for the piece I embroidered. My hands were pricked several times and it was difficult to finish the embroidery.
You can’t give up money.”
It turns out that this piece was embroidered by Ma Zhen. No wonder Ma Shun's wife was so angry.
Ma Shun's wife actually handed over such an urgent task to a child who was just learning embroidery. It was really...
After being told by her daughter that she had exposed her secrets, Ma Shun's daughter-in-law became a little angry and said to Ma Zhen: "Don't make any more trouble." Then he stretched out his hand to pull her away and said to Suxue: "We don't want the wages for this piece of work for the time being.
It’s better to pay other people’s wages to me.”
Suxue argued hard and said: "I must pay for other people's wages. Well, I brought all the money, but that piece..."
Ma Shun's wife saw Suxue shaking the money in her purse and went up to grab her hand.
That Ma Shun's wife was strong and her hands were extremely strong. Suxue was grabbed hard by her and she couldn't help but exclaimed in pain, "Ah——"
Wang Zeran had been wary of Ma Shun's wife for a long time. Seeing that Suxue was scratched by her, he stepped forward and grabbed Ma Shun's wife's hand, pressed down and pulled back, and Ma Shun's hand was twisted.
behind oneself.
Wang Zeran just wanted to stop someone from hurting Suxue, but when he saw Ma Shun's wife stopped moving, he let go.
Ma Shun's wife was heavy and her lower body was unstable. Wang Zeran's movement was so fast that she lost her balance and fell to the ground.
Ma Zhen didn't see clearly what happened. She saw her mother fall down and thought she was knocked down by Wang Zeran. She was so frightened that she cried "Wow!"
The people at the door saw that the village chief's wife had suffered a loss and was unwilling to do anything. They all crowded into the room, arguing and shouting. Some went to help Ma Shun's wife, and some came up to tear Suxue.
and Wang Zeran.
But how could Wang Zeran let them touch Suxue? He held her in his arms with both hands, and his feet moved for some unknown reason. The woman who was rushing in front fell to her feet before she could reach Suxue.
.
The two women screamed in pain for a long time and couldn't get up. The woman behind them hurriedly stopped and only dared to shout: "Where did the wild child come from and run wild in someone else's house?" She was too busy to do anything.
He went to help the woman who fell on the ground.
The hall suddenly became noisy and chaotic.
Seeing that no one dared to come forward, Wang Zeran stopped taking action and only protected Suxue and stood against the wall, looking coldly at the chaotic crowd.
"Pa--" A tea bowl was smashed on the floor of the hall. Everyone was silent for a moment and turned around to look in surprise.
I saw Ma Shun standing in the door of the hall, his face so gloomy that he could squeeze out water, looking at the women in the room fiercely, "What do you want to do?"
He just went to the village to mediate a dispute, but when he came back, things exploded at home. Did these girls come to his house to demolish it?
Seeing Ma Shun's face, the women in the room couldn't help but retreat silently, huddled in a corner of the room and poked each other, but no one dared to speak up.
As soon as the women moved away, Suxue saw that Ma Shun's wife hadn't gotten up yet. She was sitting on the ground with her head raised and her mouth wide open. She looked at Ma Shun in shock, aggrievedness and shame.
Ma Shun glared at his wife in disgust and said, "Ma Zhen, pull your mother up."
Ma Zhen stopped crying long ago. When he heard Ma Shun's words, he quickly grabbed Ma Shun's wife's hand and said, "Mom, get up quickly."
Ma Shun's wife got up from the ground, pointed at Wang Zeran, and said to Ma Shun in a complaining tone: "He, this wild child with no tutor, dares to hit someone."
Wang Zeran defended calmly: "I didn't hit anyone."
Only then did Ma Shun notice that Suxue and Wang Zeran were also in the room.
Seeing that these two people were so far away from Ma Shun's wife and the other women, Ma Shun's wife was tall and strong. How could she be beaten by a child? No one knew his wife better than him. What if she was really beaten?
, can she still be so calm?
Ma Shun knew something in his mind and said solemnly to the other women in the room: "You all go out first."
A woman who had been knocked down was a little unwilling and shouted: "That kid really hit someone, and he also used magic to make us both fall down."
Suxue and Wang Zeran: "..."
How could Ma Shun believe the woman's ridiculous words? He said sternly: "Get out."
The woman wanted to say something else, but when she saw Ma Shun's expression, she hesitated and was pulled out by the person next to her.
Seeing that there was no one else in the room, Ma Shun softened his tone slightly and said, "Suxue, what happened?"
Just as Ma Shun's wife was about to speak, she was so frightened by Ma Shun's glare that she shrunk her neck and choked back the words that came to her lips.
Suxue said calmly: "Uncle Ma, it's actually not a big deal."
After listening to Suxue's words, Ma Shun glanced at Ma Zhen, who was doing something like a quail, and knew in his heart that this was because his wife wanted her daughter to earn some pocket money.
I thought that even if Ma Zhen did not do well in embroidery, Suxue would not dare to say anything and would just accept it obediently. However, I did not expect that Suxue would not be able to get rid of the dirt in her eyes. Ma Shun's wife did not take advantage of it and even acted coquettishly.
Ma Shun quickly weighed the pros and cons in his mind and asked as kindly as possible: "Suxue, how do you want to compensate me?"
Seeing this, Suxue softened her tone and said: "The day before yesterday, I only said that we would be compensated if we failed to meet the requirements. We didn't go into detail. I thought that this situation would not happen, but I didn't expect..."
Ma Shun took a breath. The Ma family must not ruin their relationship with the Ye family because of such a trivial matter. He has not forgotten the consequences of the friction with the Ye family last time.
"Suxue, your aunt didn't handle this well. If the embroidery is damaged, we will pay for it according to the price. You can tell me the number."
"Dad." Ma Zhen was unwilling to give up, tears filled his eyes, and they were about to fall.
Ma Shun's wife also shouted unhappily: "His father."
Ma Shun couldn't bear to see his daughter's aggrieved face, so he only glared at his wife, turned to look at Suxue, and said: "I will give you the compensation alone. You can calculate other people's wages first and pay them to everyone as soon as possible."
