Chapter 81 The woman in the woodshed
Jiang Ning was as worried as him, and sighed helplessly, "When you have time, you can ask Gao Captou if there are any other suitable talents in our county. Later, I can go to Dashan Inn and ask shopkeeper Jin about your brother's side. He also said that he needed to find someone to ask, and this matter cannot be rushed."
Yang Erdan thought the same thing and could only take care of the work at hand first. Next, he would have to travel frequently between Rongshu Village and Gaojiazhuang. Grandpa, Third Uncle, and the other workers would live directly in the Gao family until the work was done. When he came back, he didn't have much energy to waste on other things.
At the same time, the Qian family had just sent the doctor who came over to treat the Qian Duowang brothers.
Mrs. Gao, the wife of Qian Duowang, threw her broom in anger, cursed the government servants angrily, and felt sorry for her men.
Mr. Chen had a gloomy face, and her already mean face was a little more ferocious, "My dear, Gao Xiucai really doesn't want our Awen to continue studying there?"
Mrs. Gao quickly ran into the main room, her voice full of anger, "No! My eldest brother came to say it in person. The reason is that we have offended Tang Xiucai. Tang Xiucai has a relationship with a big family in the county. If he continues to teach Awen, Tang Xiucai will The scholar will make him angry."
As he spoke, Mr. Gao looked at Old Man Qian angrily, "Dad, didn't you go to Tang Xiucai to reason? Why did you do it? Why did you injure so many people? Look at A Ming's father, his **** is all blooming! At least You have to stay in bed for a month before you can get out of bed! And those **** students are just scratching their heads, but they are asking for 800 coins! How can we get that much money!"
"Can you blame me for this? We wanted to have a good talk, but they didn't show up at all! Can Tang Xiu come out to see us without making some noise?" Old Man Qian was also holding back his anger. Their family had never eaten such a big meal before. Unfortunately, not only did he lose his wife, but he also lost his troops. Qian Wen's career might also be ruined.
Mrs. Chen slammed the table angrily, "That's enough, boss! Don't you think things are chaotic enough?"
After Mrs. Chen yelled, she took a deep breath and suppressed her anger and said: "Your eldest brother is not on good terms with Gao Xiucai. Let's give him something more and ask him to help say good things. No matter what, we can't let Awen be raped." Come back to school."
If he hadn't asked for help now, Mr. Chen and Mr. Qian would have scolded Mr. Gao bloody.
Gao curled his lips angrily, "I can only go back and ask. I can't guarantee whether it will work or not. After all, this matter is too big."
Speaking of it, Mrs. Gao was not very angry about Qian Wen being expelled from the school. Instead, she was a little gloating about his misfortune. She was angry that her man had been punished. Why didn't they share in the good things and blamed them for all the bad things?
Mrs. Chen nodded slightly, thought for a while, and reluctantly said, "I still have two pieces of winter cloth in the house. You can take one back and send the other to your parents' house."
Gao had been thinking about the two pieces of material for a long time. After hearing this, he immediately got into Chen's room and hurried back to the house with the two pieces of material in his arms without even saying a word.
Tian stayed in the room with a gloomy look on her face.
Qian came in and saw her like that, and he knew what she was angry about, and comforted him nicely: "Now we still have to rely on my sister-in-law to help Awen find a way. It's just two pieces of material, so don't worry about it."
"Is it a matter of two pieces of material? It's not like you don't know our situation. We can't even get a hundred coins now. Two pieces of material are about this price. I can take it as my sister-in-law says. I also want to ask my mother-in-law for it. Come here and make a new suit for Awen!" Tian said, her eyes turning red. "Why are you so impulsive? Awen hasn't been studying for a day or two. Don't you understand the temperament of those scholars?"
Qian entered the door and frowned impatiently, "Okay, things have happened, what's the use of talking so much!"
He couldn't say that the two sides were already at war with each other when they arrived. If it were true, Mr. Tian would definitely hate the old man Qian.
Tian was holding back her anger, got up and left the house, strode to the shabby woodshed in the backyard, and pushed open the house. There was a broken bed made of wooden boards in the woodshed, with a sickly woman lying on it.
When she heard the movement, the woman shrank like a frightened rabbit.
Mrs. Tian slowly walked up to Mr. Huang and said in a cold tone, "Sister-in-law, if I hadn't helped you mother and son since my eldest brother passed away, there would be grass growing on your graves now! Not to mention that I let A Feng study with A Wen. , my aunt has done this, and you can’t be justified if you don’t know how to be grateful.”
Mrs. Huang looked at Mr. Tian cautiously, coughed several times, glanced at her son beside her, and nodded repeatedly, "Sister-in-law is right, A Feng will definitely provide for you in your old age in the future and treat you as filial as his own mother."
Mrs. Tian sneered twice, "I have a son myself, so I don't need him to be filial. I remember that my brother gave all the land deeds to the village chief for safekeeping before he died. Now that the family is in trouble, it's time to show your sincerity."
"What do you want to say?" Huang's face instantly turned pale as a sheet, and she had a bad feeling in her heart.
Tian stared straight at her, narrowed his eyes, and slowly raised the corners of his mouth, "It's very simple. Let the village chief give the land deed to Afeng, sell the land, and help us pay off the debt. As long as the sister-in-law is willing Give me the land deed and I promise to take care of you all the time!"
Huang opened her mouth but said nothing.
Mrs. Tian's face darkened, "I'll only give you one night to think about it. If you can't give me a satisfactory answer tomorrow, don't blame me for being unkind!"
After Tian finished speaking, he watched with satisfaction as the frightened Huang shivered, got up and went out.
As soon as she left, Mrs. Huang immediately hugged Tian Feng and cried loudly, "Feng'er, your father worked hard to leave those fields for you. I can't give them to your aunt. You can leave! Leave my mother alone."
Tian Feng shook his head desperately, his tears like broken beads, "No, I can't abandon my mother-in-law."
Huang was so anxious that veins popped up on her forehead, "Don't you understand? Your aunt just uses me to manipulate you! If it weren't for A Niang, you wouldn't be at the mercy of your aunt all the time! I am a cheap life, and I don't deserve you. Sacrifice so much for me!”
Tian Feng shook his head vigorously and hugged Huang tightly, "Mom, don't get excited. Don't worry, I will definitely think of a way."
Huang couldn't listen at all and broke down and howled.
Mr. Gao in the front yard heard the movement and frowned subconsciously, "What did my brothers and sisters do again? Why are they crying again in the backyard?"
She remembered that the woman in the backyard cried twice. The first time was because of that incident, and what was it about this time?
Qian Duowang saw that his mother-in-law was going out to watch the fun, so he quickly grabbed her and said, "That's a matter between my siblings and has nothing to do with us. Let's not make trouble."
In his opinion, Tian's woman is even more vicious and vicious than the man. In addition, she has a son who can read, so they have to count on a second wife in the future, so they cannot offend easily.
