Chapter 254: It is difficult for an upright official to settle household affairs (two-in-one)

The old woman dragged her granddaughter, who was crying with runny nose and tears, towards Grandma Yan.

Aunt Yan carefully looked at the little girl in front of her. Although she was a little thinner, her features were still delicate, so she nodded. Just as she was about to ask her follower Timmy to come, she was pushed and staggered. The woman who was kneeling down and crying just now

, rushed over, grabbed the little girl and hid behind her.

The young woman held a pair of large scissors to her neck and said, "We won't sell it, we won't sell it. I am her mother and I have the final say. If you really want to sell my Yuanyuan, just step over my body."

"

The woman had a determined look on her face, with a look of death in her frightened eyes, and she stared at everyone vigilantly without giving in.

The young man was frightened when he saw this posture, and hurried over to dissuade him, "Sanniang, Sanniang, please don't do anything stupid. What will I do if you die?"

"Erlang, it's been nearly ten years since I married you when I was 15 years old. You see, over the years, I have worked hard for this family, taking care of the housework and serving my parents-in-law and you. Please forgive me."

Is my Yuanyuan good?" The woman prayed, looking at her husband as if grasping the last straw, hoping that he could persuade her mother-in-law to change her mind.

When the old woman saw that her daughter-in-law was actually playing this trick with him, she was so angry that she shouted sternly, "You bastard, how dare you threaten my son? Believe it or not, I asked Erlang to divorce you."

The young man had a headache. He had his mother on one side and his wife and daughter on the other. What should he do?

Although he didn't want his mother to sell his daughter, he couldn't disobey his mother. As the bond of the family, he was really in a dilemma.

What's more, his mother was right in what she said, that is, Yuanyuan was working as a maid, and she was not going to die. Maybe she would live a better life than them in the future. He had tried to persuade her from behind just now, but her daughter-in-law disagreed.

The woman who was called Sanniang looked at her husband and hesitated.

She was heartbroken, but in the eyes of her husband, filial piety was still the most important thing, and brotherhood was the most important thing. This was understandable in normal times, but did her daughter deserve to be a victim?

The people around them all showed sympathetic eyes and looked at the mother and daughter with pity, but no one dared to stretch out their hands and could only look at them dryly.

Grandma Yan was not someone to be trifled with. She said coldly, "Sell it if you want to, and if you say you don't want to sell it, don't sell it. How can there be such a good thing?"

She winked at the thug and took the scissors from Sanniang's hand when she wasn't paying attention.

How could a woman with no strength be a match for a thug? The scissors were taken away from her and she was pushed to the ground as soon as she met her.

"Aniang, Aniang!"

The little girl struggled and cried, but was dragged back by the man.

A 5-pound bag of polished rice was thrown on the ground, and he was dismissed as if he were a beggar.

"Take the food and get out of here."

The boy looked arrogant and looked at the sobbing woman on the ground with disgust, "It's your honor for the master to think highly of your daughter. Don't be shameless."

Sanniang ignored the boy's dog and looked down upon others, and wanted to pick up the rice bag on the ground and return it to the nanny. She crawled over and just about to touch the bag, the old woman with quick eyes and hands had already grabbed it and held it in her arms, and walked away.

Ran away.

Sanniang was dumbfounded. Her Yuanyuan could not be sold like this. She knelt down directly in front of Grandma Yan, but was stopped by the servant. She begged: "Please don't take Yuanyuan away, don't take me."

My daughter, please leave, please."

The woman's begging received no response from anyone.

Qian Erlang came over and tried to dissuade his pleading wife, but the woman struggled to break away, "It's all you, it's all your fault, give me back my roundness, give me back my roundness."

The woman's emotions collapsed, and her madness was full of sadness and helplessness. After venting her anger on her husband to no avail, she looked in the direction of Aunt Yan unwillingly and said, "If you want to buy it, just buy it with me! I will die with mine."

Together."

The impatient boy said sternly to the man: "If you don't take care of your mother-in-law anymore, and if you interfere with the grandma's work, I will beat you too."

In the face of power, men can only bow their heads and say yes again and again.

The woman struggled hard and the man held on tightly. This farce vividly demonstrated the sorrow and helplessness of the people at the bottom.

Although there is some sympathy in people's eyes, they are more indifferent and accustomed to it.

Seeing the woman groping for the scissors on the ground again, she wanted to rush towards the servants who caught the girl?

Everyone was shocked by this scene. They didn't expect the woman to be so willing to go out.

You must know that if you offend the powerful, you may die at any time.

Qian Erlang was frightened, but he immediately took two steps forward and grabbed his wife's arm.

The servants looked at the people in front of them with disdain. As long as the woman dared to come over, they would not be polite.

"Let me go, let me go, Qian Erlang, you bastard, if you don't let me go, we will leave you. I will follow my daughter."

The old woman who had hidden the food returned to the encirclement. As soon as she came over, she heard her daughter-in-law shouting that she wanted to make peace with Erlang.

She shouted angrily, "Du Sanniang, I will ask Erlang to divorce you now. You are an unfilial daughter-in-law who doesn't distinguish between good and bad, and who contradicts her mother-in-law."

The man was dumbfounded when he heard that I wanted to divorce my wife. How could that be done?

He turned to look at his mother pleadingly and complained: "Mother, Sanniang is just confused for a moment and hasn't made any big mistake. We can't divorce her. How will she live?"

The old woman snorted coldly, "She didn't make any mistakes. She has been married to our family for almost ten years and has never even given birth to a single child. Why keep her?"

Let her go, and my mother will find you a better one and give you more sons."

When the man heard this, he was so frightened that he shook his head, "No, mother, I want Sanniang. I have been married to her for ten years, how can I just break it off?"

"Hahaha!"

Du Sanniang said with a gloomy face and a wild laugh: "Qian Erlang, I have been working as a cow and horse in your family for so many years. Now your mother wants to divorce me. How do you choose?"

"I..." The man was speechless for a moment!

"If you really can't let go of us, mother and daughter, how about we separate our families and live together as one family? Do you dare?"

Du Sanniang looked at the silent man, as if she expected her husband not to dare. She smiled bitterly, holding back the tears that wanted to flow, and looked at her husband sarcastically and disappointedly.

The old woman was so angry that her daughter-in-law actually wanted to instigate her son to separate the family. It was unreasonable.

She jumped to her feet and yelled, "You are a troublemaker in the house. Our family will be unlucky for eight lifetimes if we have a daughter-in-law like you."

How dare you force my son to abandon his mother? How shameless are you?

My son was born in my ten-month pregnancy and I worked hard to raise him. You think you want him to disown me with just a few words? Bah, what a dream! I will let him divorce you now."

The old woman was so angry that she made up her mind to divorce Du Sanniang. Regardless of her son's obstruction and prayers, she quickly found Li Zheng of their village.

There was also a village where villagers repeatedly tried to dissuade an old woman from saying that peace was the most important thing, but the old woman was determined to divorce her daughter-in-law.

Everyone tried to persuade him for a long time to no avail, so Li Zheng had no choice but to agree. After all, it was difficult for an upright official to settle household affairs. His wife was married with money, so she insisted on divorce and both parties had no objections. He could only write it down in triplicate.

Wife release letter.

After a while, the divorce letter was thrown in Du Sanniang's face.

She was also angry for a moment. She didn't expect that her mother-in-law would really divorce her. She laughed at herself and sadly. She just didn't want to be separated from Yuanyuan because she was afraid that she would suffer hardship and be beaten and scolded at will. Was she wrong?

The hard work of the past ten years has not resulted in any kind treatment from my mother-in-law's family, but only endless insults and accusations.

Whatever.

It doesn't matter whether she lives or lives in the future. What's the point of living without her daughter?

The man was also dumbfounded. He didn't want to divorce his wife, but he could do nothing but beg, and he couldn't change the facts. He could only squat aside and cry silently.

Cheng Xiaoxiao sighed at the side, it’s okay not to want such an irresponsible Baozi dad.

The woman put away the divorce letter and continued to pray to those people to accept her.

Fang Fang couldn't stand it anymore. He quietly approached Cheng Xiaoxiao and wanted to ask Sister Xiao to borrow a bag of polished rice to help the poor mother and son.

Seeing Miss Xiao shaking her head, Fang Zheng thought that Miss Xiao was unwilling to borrow it, so he whispered again, "Don't worry, I will pay you back tenfold in the future."

Cheng Xiaoxiao still shook his head and explained objectively: "They gave you about five kilograms of fine grain. Even if you take ten kilograms of fine grain now, they may not be willing to exchange it."

For wealthy families, anything that can be solved with money is not a big deal; face is the most important thing.

"If you rush out now and ask for food in exchange for someone else's purchase, isn't that a slap in the face? It's strange that someone can buy it from you."

Upon hearing this, Fang Zheng also figured out the key.

Do they care about this little food? Are they rushing to compete with others for backstage? Are they competing with others for their wealth? Dare they snatch people from their hands? He is overestimating his capabilities.

"What should I do?" Since he had encountered it but had to sit back and watch, he was afraid that his conscience would be uneasy.

Cheng Xiaoxiao gave him a reassuring look in return, "Don't worry, Brother Fang, leave it to me so that no one can offend them."

Then, Cheng Xiaoxiao called Huang Zhongyi, whispered a few words in his ear, and the two of them pressed forward.

Cheng Xiaoxiao quickly rushed over and grabbed Du Sanniang who was kneeling on the ground.

"Hey! Third cousin, third cousin, why are you here? Is my cousin okay? She was so seriously ill last time. Fortunately, my grandfather Huang has superb medical skills and took action in time to control her condition.

.

Huh? Where is my cousin? Why haven’t I seen her?"

As he spoke, looking around as if looking for someone, Cheng Xiaoxiao was preoccupied with his performance, not giving Du Sanniang, who was still on the ground in confusion, any time to react, and continued to care: "Third cousin, please take her to Fucheng to see a doctor.

Really? You know, the disease is contagious and can’t be cured without a few hundred taels."

Cheng Xiaoxiao's words made the people around him understand two key questions.

One is that Du Sanniang’s daughter is sick and can be infected.

Second, if you want medicine to cure the disease, it will cost hundreds of taels of silver to cure it.

Cheng Xiaoxiao clicked his tongue twice, shook his head and sighed, "My cousin's life is also miserable. She got an incurable disease at a young age."

Cheng Xiaoxiao shook his head with a regretful expression on his face, and everyone around him took a few steps back.

The little girl has an infectious disease? Regardless of whether it is true or not, they have to stay away.

The nuns who were buying people went to pick their own people after Aunt Yan ordered them to drop their bags. Not all of the people who were still gathered around to watch the fun were not all of them. Now that something had happened, someone would naturally notify them.

Grandma Yan.

At this time, Cheng Xiaoxiao finally discovered Yuanyuan inadvertently. She hurried over and asked with concern: "How is Yuanyuan? Are you feeling better?"

She seemed unable to see the cowardice of those hesitant servants who wanted to catch someone but were afraid of being infected.

I just sneered secretly in my heart, they are really a bunch of selfish and death-phobic guys.

They stood in a circle and did not dare to let the mother-in-law leave without her order.

Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't mind. He grabbed Yuanyuan's hand and asked for help.

"Did you follow all the precautions Grandpa Huang told you at that time?

During this period, you must not get wet, otherwise it will relapse."

As she spoke, she rolled up the little girl's sleeves.

Grandma Yan approached her and was about to show off her authority and teach that reckless person a lesson for being so bold and daring to stir up trouble in her place, when she saw the little girl's arms were exposed, with red and purple spots, which was very scary.

Then Cheng Xiaoxiao unbuttoned the girl's high-collared clothes, revealing her neck covered in red spots.

She yelled, "Oh, why is it so serious? Oh no, this, this, the contagion has increased."

The people around him were not fools. When they saw that there was really an infectious disease, they all dispersed.

Only the few people brought by Cheng Xiaoxiao, Du Sanniang, Qian Erlang, and the old woman who was rolling around were left behind.

In the distance are her two sons who have been watching the show.

The old woman was also dumbfounded. When did her granddaughter catch the disease? Are they also infected?

Seeing that the situation was not good, the two sons picked up the old woman and fled the scene.

After coming back to her senses, Grandma Yan shouted loudly, "Stop, you are a cunning woman. You dare to sell your granddaughter who has an infectious disease to my Yan family. You really have the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard. You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you!"

The crime is extremely heinous.

Come on, call me."

When the three sons saw that the servants holding wooden sticks were really going to take action despite the old woman's pleas and excuses, they all gathered around to block the siege of the servants.

Aunt Yan even said fiercely, "Hand over the food to me, or I will beat you to death."

The eldest daughter-in-law, who was very discerning, had already taken out the food that my mother had hidden and handed it over.

If she doesn't hand it over, her man will be beaten to death.

"They have been in contact with their cousin for so long, will they all be infected?"

Cheng Xiaoxiao's words were like a heavy hammer, stopping the movements of the servants.

Aunt Yan immediately came to her senses and called back to the servants who were fighting in a group with an unkind expression.

Du Sanniang was the only one at the scene looking at the red rash on her daughter's body nervously and worriedly, not caring whether she would be infected, although she didn't know why her daughter suddenly had a red rash.

But she understood that no one would compete with her for her daughter now. She was both happy and worried, and the tears in her eyes fell silently like a kite with its string broken.

"Mom, don't cry!" The little girl wiped away her mother's tears with her thin hands.

Du Sanniang wiped the tears on her face carelessly and tried her best to face her daughter with a kind and gentle smile.

"If I don't cry, my mother and I will be together whether we live or die!"

Aunt Yan, who was standing in the distance, coldly looked at the changes happening in front of her with drooped triangular eyes, always feeling that something was not quite right.
