When Xiaoyu saw Liu Tie, she quickly grabbed Liu Tie's arm.
"Whoever bullied you, tell me and I will chop him to death!"
Liu Tie stopped Xiaoyu and asked angrily.
He was just a girl who was usually not good at darlings. Seeing Xiaoyu running out in such a mess, Liu Tie had murder in mind.
"I bullied her!"
As soon as Liu Tie finished speaking, a woman carrying a broom rushed out of the alley.
"Mom, what are you doing..."
Liu Tie's momentum suddenly dissipated.
The members of the escort team, who had originally drawn out various weapons and prepared to help Liu Tie teach the bad guys a lesson, all suppressed their laughter and took back their weapons, and stood aside happily watching the show.
The guard captain was beaten. This kind of drama is not something you see every day.
Some men even picked up the steamed buns from the cart and ate them while looking at them.
The workers also stopped working and came over to watch, laughing and joking.
Jin Feng also found it funny.
It's natural for me to spank my children. It's a family matter, and Jin Feng doesn't want to interfere.
Xiaoyu was usually off-kilter, teasing Guan Xiaorou until her face turned red, and even Jin Feng was happy to watch her being punished.
"Liu Tie, get out of here, or I'll beat you up too!"
The woman put her left hand on her hips and pointed the broom at Liu Tie's nose with her right hand and yelled at him.
Liu Tie was scolded for having no temper at all.
When others bully Xiaoyu, he dares to fight to the death, but if his own mother does it, what can he do?
I could only help my sister speak in a low voice:
"Mom, please tell me what you have to say. Xiaoyu is already so old, you can't beat her like this."
Xiaoyu nodded repeatedly: "Mom, I am a big girl now, please save some face for me..."
"You still know that you are a big girl? Then why don't you let me worry about it!"
The more the woman talked, the angrier she became. She raised a broom and slapped Liu Tie on his butt several times.
He was angry, he didn't have any moisture these days, and his summer clothes were so thin that Liu Tie jumped up due to the whipping.
The men watching laughed heartily.
"What are you kidding about?"
The village chief emerged from the woods holding up his pants.
He just went to relieve his little hand, and when he came back he saw his mother-in-law beating the child.
"Why can't you go home and talk about it? Why do you have to embarrass yourself here?"
The village chief grabbed the broom with a dark face: "The child is so old, and Tie Zi is still the captain of the guard. Aren't you making everyone laugh?"
After being scolded, the woman finally calmed down and lowered her head with red eyes.
Ever since Liu Tie and Xiaoyu came of age, she had stopped spanking her children, and she did it today only when she was really angry.
"Xiaoyu, how on earth did you provoke my mother? She is really cruel to you?"
Liu Tie rubbed his butt and glared at the girl fiercely.
He knew that this time he must have suffered a terrible disaster.
"I want to join the women's army, but my mother won't let me and insists on letting me go to the textile factory!"
Xiaoyu said softly.
"Nonsense!" the village chief scolded: "Why do you want to be a female soldier? Come back to work in the textile factory!"
"I won't go. I've already quit my job in the textile factory and someone else has taken over. I won't have a place if I go back."
Xiaoyu also had a bad temper and said with a pinched neck: "I'll book the female army team!"
"You fired your job at the textile factory?!"
The village chief stared with anger: "Do you know how many people want to enter the textile factory but can't?"
Not afraid of being embarrassed, he grabbed the broom and whipped it on Xiaoyu.
This time Liu Tie just frowned but did not stop him.
"Xiaoyu, this is too ridiculous!"
"Yes, the village chief finally raised her up, and she can go to the textile factory to make money, but she wants to be a female soldier. I really don't know what Xiaoyu thinks."
"What else can you think of? It's just fun. How can spinning in a factory be as comfortable as running around in the mountains behind?"
"I usually see Xiaoyu as a nice girl, but I didn't expect her to be so ignorant."
"It was the village chief who spoiled her."
"That is to say, the village chief's family has good conditions. Several members of the family have jobs and can earn more than one tael of silver every month. If you try another family, they will be beaten to death!"
This time the villagers also understood what was going on.
Not only village women, but also many men felt that Xiaoyu was ignorant, neglectful of family, and unfilial.
The village chief is a prominent figure in the village. When someone said that, he immediately became a little bit proud.
"I'll ask you to quit work!"
"What kind of female soldier did I ask you to be?"
Swear and slap the broom.
Xiaoyu stopped running and just stood there and resisted.
"Village chief, stop beating, you can't beat a girl like this,"
A man next to the village chief grabbed the broom: "If you have something to say, please tell me."
"Lao Yuan, don't stand and talk without pain in your back. If your Chun Niang becomes a female soldier, would you agree?"
The village chief said angrily: "Look at those female soldiers who train with men every day with their naked bodies exposed. How will they get married in the future?"
"Then I won't marry!"
Xiaoyu said angrily.
"You're not getting married anymore. What, you want to be a loser?"
The village chief was so angry that he raised the broom again, but Lao Yuan held him tightly.
"Those who lose money lose money, those who lose money, you only have money in your eyes!"
Xiaoyu shouted: "Don't you want me to be a female soldier because you feel sorry for the wages in the textile factory?"
"What happened to the distressed money?"
The village chief said: "You have only had a few good days and you start acting like a monster? Have you forgotten the winter five years ago?"
Five years ago was a good harvest year, but that year the bandits demanded twice as much annual grain, and many people in the village had nothing to eat in the winter.
It happened that the winter was extremely cold that year, and heavy snow closed the mountains for more than two months. It was impossible to find food in the mountains, and more than a dozen people starved to death in Xihewan.
Even the village chief's family, who lived a relatively good life, almost couldn't hold on.
"Five years ago, bandits weren't causing trouble. I joined the women's army just to fight bandits!"
Xiaoyu said: "If it weren't for Tieniu and Sister Mu Lan this time, do you think we would still have a good life?"
The village chief was speechless after being asked by Xiaoyu.
"Xiaoyu, if you want to go to the women's army, have you asked Miss Mu Lan?"
Lao Yuan came out to smooth things over: "Don't end up in a situation where people don't want you. Then you didn't quit your job in vain?"
"Yes, did you ask Miss Mu Lan?"
The village chief also looked at Xiaoyu.
Hearing this, Jin Feng smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Others don't know, but he knows very well that Qing Mulan has long complained that there are too few female soldiers, and has been talking about expanding the number of soldiers for a day or two.
Xiaoyu took the initiative to send it to her door, how could she not agree?
Sure enough, after the village chief asked, Xiaoyu said proudly: "Of course I asked. I also took the exam and passed them all. Sister Mu Lan said I can join at any time."
"How could she do this? Isn't this leading Xiaoyu to evil?"
The village chief was very angry when he heard this: "I'll ask her what she wants to do?"
"Head of the family," Liu Tie's mother grabbed the village chief and reminded her in a low voice: "We can't afford to offend her..."
