"Cui Fen killed someone, help me." After saying this, Ms. Zhang fainted. In the end, the villagers couldn't bear to see it, so they carried Ms. Zhang back home.
When Zhang Li saw Mrs. Zhang going out to get some water and being beaten like this, Mrs. Zhang woke up with runny nose and tears, saying that Cuifen was not a thing and that she was robbing her of water and beating her up.
, beating her until her nose was bruised and her face was swollen.
"I'm talking about Mrs. Zhang, you said sister-in-law Cuifen beat you, then why is she crying?" The two women who carried Mrs. Zhang back were a little dissatisfied.
But it was only for Mr. Zhang, so they wouldn’t believe everything Mr. Zhang said.
"She thought she had beaten me to death. Who wouldn't be afraid of beating someone to death?" Zhang's red and swollen eyes felt guilty, but with her look like this, it was really hard to tell that she was feeling guilty.
"What the hell is she Cuifen? A man never comes back after serving as a soldier. I don't know how many men she has stolen. After all, you are also my Zhang Lili's wife. How can you be beaten in vain? Leave and I will get one for you."
Justice." Zhang Lili slapped the table, looked at Ms. Zhang and said, Ms. Zhang was beaten like this, so she can ask for a good two taels of silver in compensation.
"I want to see what's going on." As soon as the village woman saw Zhang Lili's eyes rolling, she knew what he had planned.
Zhang Lili directly dragged Mrs. Zhang and headed towards Cuifen's house with great fanfare.
The village woman winked at the other village woman, and the other woman understood immediately and ran out. Such a good thing would of course have a lot of spectators.
It happened that the news about Cuifen beating Zhang had spread. Seeing Zhang Li going to Cuifen's house aggressively, someone immediately ran to Cuifen's house.
"Cuifen, what on earth did you do today? I saw that Zhang Lili dragged his mother-in-law to your place in a menacing manner." A woman hurriedly entered Cuifen's house and saw Cuifen's eyes were red.
Cuifen's son Zhang Xiao is helping with the work at home.
"He still has the nerve to come. He dares to come to me for trouble. I'm not someone to be trifled with." Cuifen said angrily when she heard that the powerful couple dared to come to her shamelessly.
"Oh, you said you were helpless. Zhang Lili is a man after all. What happened today? That Zhang insisted that you wanted to kill her, and even cursed that you wanted to report to the official." The village woman sighed.
He said with a breath.
"How dare he report to the official." Cuifen was trembling in the air. All the water she had today was wiped out by Zhang. She didn't know how thick-skinned Zhang was to dare to report to the official.
"I don't know who the two of them are. Please tell me what's going on first. If these two people bully others too much, let's report it to the existence and jointly drive them out of the village." The village woman was also a little angry.
said.
"Today I went to fetch water early and found that the well was out of water, but everywhere I went I would fish out a little water from the sand. Later, Mrs. Zhang couldn't fetch water and insisted on drinking my water.
It was just a small amount of water, and she drank it. Did I bring back some water? I pushed her to prevent her from drinking it. Then, for some reason, she pounced on me from behind and the water spilled. I was so angry.
, so I beat her." Cuifen's eyes turned red as she spoke. The whole family hadn't drank water today. Although her son kept saying he wasn't thirsty, how could she, a mother-in-law, not tell whether he was thirsty or not?
.
"She does such immoral things and dares to confuse right and wrong. It's really irritating. Don't be afraid. I'm going to find the village chief. I want to see what that ruthless couple can do." Village woman
After hearing what Cuifen said, she was so angry that she was shaking, so she comforted Cuifen and ran out to find the village chief.
However, as soon as she walked away with her front foot, Zhang Li took a kitchen knife with her back foot and knocked on the door cursingly.
"Cuifen, open the door for me. Tell me why my wife offended you and you want to kill her." Zhang Li knocked on the door with a kitchen knife. Cuifen's son Zhang Xiao frowned.
He picked up the hoe and started to open the door.
"Don't go, wait until someone comes." Cuifen is not stupid. She naturally knows that she will not gain the upper hand if she goes out now, so she grabs her son and says.
"You rotten woman who steals men, open the door, open the door." Zhang Li felt even more proud when he saw Cuifen didn't say a word, thinking that Cuifen was scared.
When Mrs. Zhang heard about the cheating man, she felt so weak all over. Seeing Zhang Li waving the kitchen knife and spitting everywhere, she was so frightened. If he knew that she had betrayed him, how could she survive?
After a while, many people gathered.
"Zhang Lili, what are you yelling at? If you don't ask me clearly what my mother-in-law has done, are you really treating me like an orphan and a widowed mother?" Cuifen saw that people were almost there, so she felt confident and opened the door.
He held a hoe and said loudly without showing any signs of weakness.
"Who bullied you? Look at what you did to my mother-in-law. I don't need more than that. I'll use one tael of silver as medical expenses." Zhang Lili saw her coming out and saw more and more people, so he wanted to go as soon as possible.
thing.
"Bah, you really dare to speak. If I don't ask you to settle the matter about your mother-in-law overturning my water, you still dare to come to me to ask for medical expenses." Cuifen put her hands on her hips and said with a sigh.
Then he told how Zhang had overthrown her water and the well was out of water.
Zhang's face turned red when everyone pointed at her. Fortunately, her face was bruised and swollen, and her expression was not visible.
"Why are you making a noise?" The village chief was invited over to speak out, and someone made way for him. As soon as the village chief walked into Cuifenfei's yard, he saw Cuifen holding a hoe with a fierce look on her face, guarding her behind.
His son Zhang Xiao, and Zhang Lili is not a vegetarian, and he is very good at swinging a kitchen knife.
"Put it all down. Who can take the responsibility for killing people? You? Or are you able to take the responsibility?" The village chief first glanced at Cuifen, then looked at Zhang Lili fiercely and said.
Zhang Lili was speechless and put down the kitchen knife. He just waved the kitchen knife to scare Cuifen, how dare he do anything to her.
"Village Chief, you have to make the decision for us." Cuifen's eyes were red and she was out of water. Isn't this fatal?
| "Village Chief, you came just in time. The wells in the village are dry. Do you think the reservoir we built should be put to use? We haven't had any water this morning. The chickens, ducks, pigs and so on at home,
There is no water anymore." As soon as Zhang Li saw that the village chief had favored Cuifen, he knew that there was no chance of today's matter, so he shifted the matter to water again.
"Shameless, An Ran paid for the construction of the reservoir, what does it have to do with you?" As soon as Zhang Li said this, a woman spat.
"I know An Ran paid for the reservoir, so isn't this a special situation? She can use up so much water by herself." Zhang Lili said with a smile.
Speaking of being cheeky, there really is no one more shameless than him.
"Yes, village chief, how can everyone live without water here?" Although Zhang Lili said it in a bad way, that's indeed what happened.
"I was going to tell you about this early in the morning. It was expected that the wells would dry up, so water sources are scarce. An Ran also thought of that, and he could get water if he wanted." The village chief rolled his eyes at Zhang Lili and said.
"That's great, Miss An Ran is really kind-hearted." As soon as the village chief finished speaking, someone said with relief.
"What kind of person is this? Everyone worked hard at the beginning, but they used their own power and gave others the top hat." Zhang Li couldn't help but sneered, but he was immediately counterattacked.
"Zhang Lili, don't tie us to you. Do you think everyone is as shameless as you? Miss An Ran paid for everyone to dig. Now that there is a drought, everyone has to dig for it. Who doesn't?
I know who you are. Aren't you the one who incited people to strike in the first place? If I were you, I would have moved away long ago. It's really embarrassing." Women have some advantages in speaking, and they can say anything.
No matter how shameless Zhang Lili was, he was still a man and could not say anything. When he was told this, he was immediately speechless.
"An Ran said that it's okay to draw water, but the amount of water must be limited. Each household can only draw one bucket of water a day. Those with a large population can draw two buckets." The village chief rolled his eyes at Zhang Lili and saw that almost everyone in the village had arrived.
Well, he just talked about water.
"What, one bucket, there's not enough water." Zhang Li was relieved when he heard that he could get water, but now he could only get one bucket, so he was not calm.
"It's not enough, go fetch water from the river yourself, there is a lot of water there." Cuifen said coldly, a bucket of water is enough for their family.
"You have no right to speak here. I think there are only two people in your family. Half a barrel is enough." Zhang Li glared at Cuifen bitterly and said. He originally came to Cuifen for compensation, but he couldn't get the compensation.
, it also depends on whether she is sarcastic or not.
"Okay, now is the drought period, just don't let people die. If you are dissatisfied, you can go to the river to fetch water. If anyone violates the regulations and wants to waste the water, then don't blame me for being rude."
Chang said coldly.
"How could Zhang Lili go to Anran's reservoir to get water? Who doesn't know about the evil deeds of digging up other people's seeds?" Although everyone knows this, Zhang Lili will still go to get water shamelessly, but he still wants to say a few words to block him.
He felt unhappy.
Zhang Lili didn't get any benefits, so he dragged Mrs. Zhang back in despair. As soon as he returned, he kicked Mrs. Zhang out and asked her to fetch water.
The water source issue was resolved, Su Liu gained a good reputation, and the people in Xinghua Village almost treated her like a god.
One month passed quickly, the drought continued, and it had not rained for three months.
But this night, Mrs. Zhang secretly went out and went to find Zhang Xiaodong.
"Who is it?" Zhang Xiaodong asked coldly.
"Xiaodong, it's me." Mrs. Zhang looked around and said softly when she saw no one.
