It was a cold day, but she had to wash her hair. Jiang Xinyu wore thick clothes. After washing and wiping her hair, Xiaochuan entered the house with a brazier and said, "Sister Xinyu, sit here and bake it. It will dry in a while."
Xiaochuan is a smart guy. He takes over all the small jobs at home. Every time she takes a vacation, it’s not her turn to fetch water, collect firewood, feed the pigs and chickens, and Xiao Hei’s doghouse is occupied by him.
It was covered with thick straw.
Chen Xiuyun came up from the cellar, holding a small half pot of carrots in her hand. When she was about to go into the kitchen to cook, two people came in at the door of the courtyard.
Which one is it if it's not Ma Meimei with a pulled face or Old Mrs. Li with her shoulders hunched like a quail?
"Sister-in-law, please go to my house later to discuss something."
When Jiang Xinyu heard the commotion outside, she came out with her hair wrapped, and saw Mrs. Li's face change. She first looked at Chen Xiuyun with confusion and curiosity, and then she seemed to recognize her. From looking curiously to yelling, it only took a second.
.
"You, a loser, killed Jianmin and left Jianmin without a son. You shouldn't have been allowed to enter my house in the first place..."
Jiang Xinyu: "..."?
What's going on with Mrs. Li? Are you saying she's stupid? Is she normal or stupid now?
Mrs. Li not only scolded her, but also hit her.
Ma Meili shouted: "Be honest with me!"
As if pressing the pause button, Mrs. Li's arrogance was extinguished in an instant, she hunched her neck and acted like a quail, turned her head and glanced at Ma Meili fearfully.
Jiang Xinyu: "..."!
Jiang Zhenzhen: "..."!.
Chen Xiuyun: "..."!
My dear, when did the old woman become so afraid of the beautiful horse? It’s okay to be beautiful!
Seeing the shocked and admiring looks in the three people's eyes, Ma Meili straightened her back, and the look on her face became a little more arrogant.
Chen Xiuyun praised sincerely: "You are very powerful now and can control her!"
Ma Meimei, does this count as a peasant or a slave singing?
Ma Meili snorted slightly, "She doesn't have a clear mind right now. She poops when she says it, and pees when she says it. If you don't do it harshly, she will never remember it."
The admiring looks in mother and daughter's eyes made Ma Meimei feel not proud of herself, and her irritable and aggrieved heart in the past few days had strangely softened a lot.
She glanced sideways at Mrs. Li, raised her chin, and said in a fierce tone, "Let's go!"
Mrs. Li shrank her head and walked out obediently.
Step after step, each step is full of sadness and helplessness.
Ma Meili turned around and said, "Come quickly, come to my house, if you have something to say."
Seeing the strange figures of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law disappearing at the entrance of the courtyard, mother and daughter looked at each other in shock.
"Is our grandma stupid? She is stupid and she still knows how to curse people?"
"She's not stupid, why is she so afraid of the second aunt?"
"How did the second aunt take care of her?"
"Did you attack her?"
The two sisters were guessing every word I said.
Jiang Xinyu felt that given Mrs. Li's bullying and shy temperament, the second aunt must have beaten her, and even beaten her hard!
Jiang Xinyu's guess was correct. Ma Meili had been dealing with feces and urine for the past few days, and she felt very depressed. In order to vent her anger, she pinched Old Mrs. Li's clothes until they were bruised and bruised.
In front of other people in the ward, Ma Meili couldn't keep hitting her. In order to vent her anger, she secretly pinched Old Mrs. Li more often. Every time she pinched Old Mrs. Li, she started howling, which annoyed the people in the ward.
Tired of it, Ma Meili could take the opportunity to beat her a few more times to make her be more honest.
In this way, Mrs. Li was cured and submissive by Ma Meili and became the quail she is now.
Jiang Xinyu was so curious about Mrs. Li that she bundled up her hair and went to Lao Jiang's house to watch the fun. Jiang Zhenzhen did the same and went with her child in her arms. Xiaochuan was left to look after the house.
Everyone in the village knew that Mrs. Li's brain was abnormal after being beaten, but no one had seen it with their own eyes.
Ma Meili walked with Mrs. Li in the village, attracting attention from the members.
"Lao Jiang's family, I heard that you were beaten
Silly?"
Mrs. Li subconsciously stepped in and yelled back: "Xie Cai is stupid, and Xie's whole family is stupid."
After scolding her, she reflexively glanced sideways at Ma Meili. When she saw that Ma Meili didn't respond, she continued to scold: "Those people who don't like this old guy, get out of here."
The people who were criticized were talking about it:
"Why is she so stupid? I think she is very nice."
"Don't imitate her when you go out in the future. She talks bad words and doesn't sound good. You'll get beaten up when you go out."
"Then Liu Laosan is not a thing, Lao Jiang's family is unlucky!"
"Unlucky? If someone beats her instead of others, she must be speaking too harshly?"
…
There is no shortage of people watching the fun in the village at any time. When Chen Xiuyun, mother and daughter walked over, everyone was talking lively.
"Zhenzhen, are you going to live with your child at your parents' house from now on? Are you having a fight with Zhang Hua again? Are you going to lose your job?"
Jiang Zhenzhen looked calm in the face of the crowd who were looking at each other or watching the excitement, "My Zhang Hua will go to work in the county machinery factory, and I will follow him into the city. Once the house is found and everything is arranged, I will take the child with me."
"
At first, everyone was prepared to watch the joke. But it turned out to be a good thing. They were going to the city! People in the town looked down on the people in their village, let alone the people in the county.
Jiang Xinyu feels that it is really difficult to live one's own life behind closed doors in rural areas. Most of them will know about any trouble.
This kind of atmosphere can be both good and bad. The human touch is quite strong, but there are many people in the village who hate others and laugh at others. Some gossips can also affect people's mood.
Lao Jiang's house was busy at the moment, and Zhang Dali's wife from Jiang Laosan's house next door was pointing at Jiang Baoqin and scolding her.
"It was you, the girl, who caused your uncle to come out and then go back in again. You are a harmful person!"
Jiang Baoqin said with an ugly face, "I just casually mentioned that there must be good things in Liu Laosan's house, and I didn't ask him to steal things. It doesn't make sense for you to blame me!"
Her aunt snorted, "Didn't you say that Tian Ni was hidden in the cellar by Liu Laosan? There are many good things in there? Didn't you instigate it? Your uncle went in again, and you have no explanation?"
"
Jiang Baoqin was convinced and asked her if she wanted an explanation. What kind of explanation?
"They'll be back after a while, what's the use of making trouble with me?"
Zhang Fengmei slapped Jiang Baoqin in the face, "You damn girl, you talk nonsense every day. It's better now. Your uncle went in again."
Jiang Laosan heard this and said rudely: "What's the point of making trouble? Isn't it because he made a bad idea and blamed others?"
The quarrel was so loud, and the door was still ajar with a large gap leaking. Jiang Xinyu heard it at the door of the courtyard. She glanced in and met the eyes of Song Minghan, who looked a bit gloomy and irritable.
She withdrew her gaze as if nothing had happened, thinking about the conversation just now.
So, why does Jiang Baoqin know that there are people and good things hidden in the cellar of Jiang Laosan's house?
