Wu Chunmei felt uncomfortable after what she said. She took two steps forward, hugged her daughter and started to cry.
"Lishu, my mother-in-law has really wronged you. Everyone has sharp eyes." Li Xiulan stepped forward and said something at the right time.
In the eyes of others, this was not a huge injustice. Everyone immediately looked at Mrs. Chen and Chen Mancang's family strangely.
"This is indeed an unethical thing to do. It's not just that I couldn't give birth to a son, but I can't bully him like this! This is a loss of conscience!"
"Chen Mandun and his wife are so honest. They usually just work hard, alas!"
Mrs. Chen and Chen Mancang's family never expected that things would turn out like this. They originally wanted to teach Chen Mancang a lesson, but now they found the thing at home. It was not only yellow mud in their crotch, but also feces.
When we arrived at Widow Liu’s place, we were even more surprised. Good guy, a widow brought up two children, and they were not doing their jobs properly. Not only was there no shortage of food in the house, there was actually quite a lot of it. After a quick look, in addition to three bags of food, there was actually a lot of food.
There is one duck and two chickens.
"Isn't this the duck that was lost in my house?" Suddenly a woman in the crowd pointed at the duck and said loudly.
"What's your duck? It was obviously raised by me." Now that it had been discovered, Widow Liu could only bite it to death. The thing was hers.
"Fart. I remember clearly those ducks in my house. The missing one had a bunch of white hair on its neck." The woman took two steps forward and took the duck out of the cage. It had a bunch of white hair on its neck.
"You actually stole my duck, you shameless bastard! I've been looking for it for so long and you didn't tell me, so today I have to give you some color to see." As the woman said this, she went to pick out Widow Liu's hair, and Widow Liu didn't want to eat it.
The two of them quickly started fighting each other.
"Bah, you are slandering me for stealing your duck. It was clearly given to me by your man. I can't control myself and go wild here!"
Widow Liu's face was scratched by the other party, she felt secretly resentful, and her words were gone.
The two of them beat each other harder and harder, and their curse words became even harsher.
"What are you still doing? Go and separate them quickly." Zhang Changhe turned around and said. Immediately, two women rushed forward to start a fight.
She said it was a fight, but she didn't like Widow Liu, so she pinched her several times secretly. When the two separated, Widow Liu's face was already pale.
"Today's incident is so egregious in nature that our village committee must hold a meeting to decide what to do."
Zhang Changhe said: "It's getting late, so we can't delay the work. Let's all work first. I'll tell everyone the regulations later."
After hearing what he said, there was no excitement at all, and everyone went to work obediently.
The result of the matter soon came out. Chen Mancang went to a class to study for half a month. His existing rabbits and pheasants were confiscated and he was fined an additional 20 yuan and handed over to the brigade.
Widow Liu's ducks were returned to the owner without telling the owner because she could not explain the source of the food. Although everyone knew what was going on, the situation could not last long. The village committee decided to confiscate half of her bag of food and give it to the production team.
At this time, food was her lifeblood, and confiscating half the bag would be cutting her flesh. For a moment, mother and son hated Chen Lishu to the core! "Mom and Dad, after this time you have also seen that my grandma does not regard our family as important at all."
As long as you have fulfilled your obligations as a relative, you'd better stay away from her in the future."
Chen Mandun and Wu Chunmei lowered their heads and nodded silently for a long time.
"What obligations do you have to fulfill? She has done that to our family. Anyway, don't expect me to call her "milk" in the future!" When Chen Liyuan came back from school and heard about this incident, she was so angry that she wished she could argue with them again.
"Your uncle..."
Chen Mandun raised his head and saw that Chen Lishu was hesitant to speak. After all, they are brothers. It would be a stain if they entered the study class: "This matter is originally our fault."
Chen Lishu looked at Chen Manyun's face full of self-blame and didn't know what to say. She took a deep breath and suppressed the fire gushing out of her heart.
"Dad, if the whole family hadn't wanted to take advantage of you today, how could your biological mother and eldest brother do such a thing? If someone slaps you on the left cheek, would you want to slap the other cheek as well? Even because of the
Are you blaming yourself for hurting your hand?"
"I, I didn't." Chen Mandun retorted in a low voice without confidence.
"I hope my parents will take what I said to heart. There are not only the two of you in this family, but also several younger sisters. Don't think about everything for yourself, but think more about them." Chen Lishu's tone was slightly gentler.
The two of them said nothing more before getting up and going home.
Two days later, Gu Xingping came back from school that day and suddenly brought back a letter.
"Mom, Dad, third sister-in-law, and my third brother have received a letter."
When the whole family heard her say, they all dropped what they were doing and came together.
Gu Xingping handed the letter to Li Xiulan and blinked meaningfully at Chen Lishu.
Chen Lishu was stunned for a moment, not understanding what she wanted to express.
Li Xiulan opened the letter happily, and looked at the small words on it and unconsciously took the letter further away. Unfortunately, her eyesight was poor due to her age, so she had to hand the letter to Gu Xingping again: "Old girl, come and read it."
Gu Xingping took the letter and began to read it.
In the letter, Gu Xingdong first sent greetings to the whole family, and then briefly talked about his situation in the army, because there were some things that he couldn't talk about, so he could only talk about some things in life.
The content of the letter was not long, but Gu Shoufu and Li Xiulan listened very carefully.
"Okay, old man, did you hear what your son said in the letter? The army canteen is full of food and there are steamed buns and meat."
"Yeah." Gu Shoufu nodded: "I heard it."
Generally speaking, the most important thing for every child traveling far away from home is whether he or she has enough food and clothing.
After the family read the letter, they started to have dinner. After dinner, Chen Lishu had just finished cleaning up the kitchen and returned to her room, and Gu Xingping followed her in.
"Hehe, third sister-in-law, how do you want to thank me?"
Chen Lishu looked at the other unopened letter dangling in her hand. How could she not know that this was another letter written by Gu Xingdong alone to herself.
"My third brother is so partial. He didn't even say to write me a letter alone." Gu Xingping put the letter on the table and said jokingly: "Well, it says Li Shushou alone on it. I have to go back and do my homework.
, Don’t disturb Lishu, just read the letter.”
Chen Lishu's face was a little burned by her sinister tone: "If you make fun of me again, I won't make your skirt."
Gu Xingping's weakness was pinched and she immediately apologized: "Sister-in-law, I was wrong. I'm leaving now. When you reply, you must tell me. I am very willing to do my best for you."
"No matter how poor you are!" Chen Lishu pretended to fight, but Gu Xingping dodged and went out. Before leaving, he didn't forget to close the door for her.
