Chapter 879: Extreme joy brings sorrow (update 3)
Grandma Zhang is anxious to find a wife for her son. She asks people everywhere to find out who has a suitable eldest daughter or a woman who has been married without children. Recently, she finally has some clues. The third child who sells pork in the neighboring county has found out. There is an old girl in her thirties on the street. I heard that she had sex with people every time, and she was not married until she was in her thirties.
Her family’s third son made an agreement with the matchmaker, and tomorrow he will bring the young woman to the Zhang family’s house in Mei Village to have a date. Look, Grandma Zhang was very excited, thinking about it, and went to Zhang Poluo's house with her head held high.
Zhang Laosan and her mother-in-law were at home to help guard the sun valley. When they saw the Zhangs coming to the house, they were not warm and didn't show any dislike. It was very plain. He took a bench and let her stay.
Zhang, Laosan and his wife didn't ask why they came to the door. Grandma Zhang couldn't sit still and directly said the reason for her visit: "She is from Zhang San's family. My youngest will accompany the matchmaker and bring the girl to our house tomorrow to see each other. , you can help me accompany the guests at noon tomorrow."
"I won't say that I can't do this kind of thing, so you can find someone else." Grandma Zhang San declined, who wants to eat with Zhang's family? , after eating a meal, the Zhang family will count for a year what good things they have eaten. She is not so poor that she has nothing to eat, and she is greedy for the Zhang family's hospitality. "What's there to say? Come and sit at my house
. Just help me check it out."
"Don't come to me for this kind of thing. You told Zhang Ke that you have good taste when you asked Wu Lingling to be your wife. The wife you chose for you is the most outstanding among the young wives. You yourself are so discerning. Okay, you can't go wrong with someone who is good to
you." Grandma Zhang San was rude when the Zhang family asked her to help check the situation. Back then, the Zhang family were very poor and they were picky about their daughter-in-law looking for a wife. Now she has I don’t know what a few bad guys will do. Whoever helps to check the check will be unlucky. If they become a good couple, it is the credit of their own family. Once things go wrong, all the fault will be assigned to the person who checked the check. Only a fool will give it. Check.
"I..." Grandma Zhang was choked as if she had eaten a plum stuck in her throat. She couldn't get up or down. She held it in for a long time before she managed to speak: "Actually, there is no need to check. After all, she is a member of the Zhang family. There are a few elderly elders sitting there, don’t let the woman’s family look down upon her.”
"You go find other elderly people of the same clan. The Le family will pour the floor tomorrow. We have already agreed that we elders will help light the fire, roast the pig's feet, and wash the dishes." "You... you guys, the Le
family It's my foreign surname, but we have the same surname. You can't even tell the difference between far and near." Grandma Zhang was so angry. She knew that the Le family would be pouring water on the floor tomorrow, so she asked the third child to try to invite a matchmaker to come tomorrow. See each other at home.
"I know who kisses and who doesn't." Grandma Zhang San smiled and said, "I also know that your family may be involved in a lawsuit. You, hurry up and find a good wife for your son. Otherwise, you will be involved in a lawsuit and your reputation will be ruined. Well, it will be even harder for your son to find a wife."
"Why should we sue? My family has not broken any laws and has not stolen or robbed. Who has enough food and nothing to file a lawsuit with my family? You should come out and let me see who is looking after my family. It's pleasing to the eye, and it's my family's fault." Grandma Zhang was furious, and she angrily vowed to ask for details.
"Who else could it be? Of course it's the Le family." Grandma Zhang San would not be frightened: "You came to Wu Lingling's house on August 15th, using Le Yun's name to scare the Wu family, saying that the Wu family will not compensate you. Just kowtow to the Le family and ask Le Yun to tell you who Wu Lingling's concubine is, and then run to make trouble. Le Yun's name is very useful, isn't it? You used Le Yun's name to force the Wu family to pay you sixty yuan. Wan, you won't forget it so soon."
When people found out that her family had taken advantage of the Le family's little short-lived ghost to force the Zhang family to get compensation, Grandma Zhang's heart shrank, she held her neck and shouted: "Let's talk about what's wrong, Is it illegal? Can't
I call Le Yun's name?" "I don't know if it's illegal or not. I only know that your trouble with the Wu family was made into a movie and posted online. Many people across the country saw it. I heard that many people are coming to Lejia to tell them who Wu Lingling's mistress is. You pushed Lejia out to prevent disaster for you. Do you think the people behind Leyun will let Leyun suffer such a loss?" Grandma Zhang San laughed happily
. ’s: "Did you see the helicopter this morning? If you didn't, just go to the village committee and ask, and you will know. A plane came in the morning and brought a few soldiers to live in Lejia to protect the young and old of Lejia. I am just afraid that someone will come to Lejia to cause trouble.
Also, not long ago, the heads of the city and county police hurried to our village. They were also at Lejia. About ten minutes ago, the officials and soldiers were observing with their big wolf dogs. The terrain around Lejia seemed to indicate that some kind of electronic eyes would be installed at every intersection. I even asked them to sit down, but they were busy with something, so I just said a few words and left.
You are making trouble with the musicians of Lejia, and you have caused such a big thing that even the city officials have been alarmed. Now they have no time to deal with you. Do you think they will not investigate the cause and find you afterward? Can't? Do you think the Lejia girl will still be as easy to talk to as before and won't argue with your family? "
This... this... is impossible. We only mentioned Le Yun's name, and we didn't use her name to deceive anyone or rob anyone. What does it have to do with us?" "Grandma Zhang was frightened. Le Yun's name is very useful. They just used the name of the little short-lived ghost to scare the Wu family, and they didn't use her name to commit murder and arson. The Le family won't really sue them, right? "
I don't know this either, so I advise you to help you find a good wife quickly, lest Xiao Lele comes back to settle accounts with you one day, and you lose all your face, and Zhang Ke wants to ask for it." It's even harder for my wife. "
..." Grandma Zhang opened her mouth and was speechless. How could she still be in the mood to sit down? She said she wanted to go home to help Zhang Ke pick sweet potatoes and left quickly. When Zhang
Laosan came out, Grandma Zhang also I didn't have the intention to look for the elderly people from the Zhang family to help check things at home. I hurried to the village committee. I originally wanted to borrow money to buy things and find out. After thinking about it, I walked to the street and saw that there was indeed a car parked beside the street at the entrance of the village. The two public cars showed that Zhang San's family had not lied to her and they hurried back to the village. She
took another road back to the village and walked not far from her home. From a distance, she saw Village Chief Zhou and some people walking towards the main road from a side road. Coming here, Grandma Zhang hurriedly avoided it. When people passed by, she looked around and saw a big dog, people in green clothes, and people in police uniforms. She felt very scared
. I was in a panic and hurried home, feeling confused. What should I do now? I made an appointment to come tomorrow. If I really come, if I meet the villagers and say something, will I become a loser again?
The more Grandma Zhang thought about it, the more uneasy she became. When she got home, she didn’t have the time to think about what tricks she would do tomorrow to make lunch look richer and more varied so that the family would look good. She was thinking hard about how she could hide things about the Le family from the matchmaker and the woman tomorrow. .
They were divorced. After Zhang Ke lost his wife, he was the only laborer in the family. When he had a wife, he was still the only laborer. Wu Lingling did not do heavy work at home. She only cut vines, picked potatoes, dug sweet potatoes, and picked them back. Home and so on are all his business.
After harvesting the late rice, my mother was busy looking for someone to be a matchmaker for herself. Zhang Ke worked silently, cutting sweet potato vines, drying the ground, and digging again. After a few days in the ground, it was almost finished.
That day, I dug sweet potatoes in a field very close to the village. I waited for the sun to hit the ground to dry the dew. I dug it at about ten o'clock in the morning. I dug it for a while in the afternoon before finishing it. Then I moved it home.
During the first and second moves, I didn’t see my mother, and I didn’t know where she went to chat with someone. Zhang Ke didn’t care. When I moved home for the third time, I saw my mother sitting in the main room of the house and sighing. It was very strange: "Mom "What's wrong with you?"
Grandma Zhang was helping to pick sweet potatoes. She sorted out the good ones and put them in the cellar. She put the smaller ones aside to feed the pigs. She was filled with worry and sighed while picking. When she saw her son, With a grimace and a sigh: "Xiao Ke, tell me, will the Yueqing family really sue us and ask us to take legal action?" "Why would the
Yueqing family sue us?" Hearing topics related to the Yueqing family , Zhang Ke felt uncomfortable all over, what happened to the Le family, and they wanted to cause trouble for his family, could it be that he felt that his life was not miserable enough now?
He had very complicated feelings about the Le family. Let's call it hate. At least Le told the story about Wu Lingling, so that he no longer had to help others raise wild animals. None of his family property fell into the hands of anyone who had nothing to do with it. He said no. Hate it, the man surnamed Le revealed Wu Lingling's story, which caused him to lose face. He was even scolded behind his back for being unfilial, saying that he was a useless soft-eared father who only listened to his wife's bedside manners.
The fact that his own father died of vomiting blood has become a hurdle that Zhang Ke can't get over. Every time he thinks about it, he feels cold all over. He hates himself for being blind, unable to tell the truth from falsehood, and being deceived by Wu Lingling, which makes his father mad to death.
"It's not our Wu family's responsibility to compensate. It's going to be a big mess," Grandma Zhang was worried. She went to the Wu family to cause trouble, and used Le Yun's name to force the Wu family to pay compensation. It was also spread by the meddlesome people. Now, Everyone knew that someone was coming to the village to look for Le Yun. The state department sent people to protect the Le family and told their son that they were afraid that the Le family would sue them later and damage Le Yun's reputation.
Zhang Ke listened in silence, as if he was useless, and said in a sullen voice: "They want to sue, let's compensate them. Under normal circumstances, we can only ask the Wu family to compensate one or two hundred thousand, which is more." The hundreds of thousands that came out were obtained using Le Yun's name. We should pay the money that we don't deserve to the Le family." "Ah, what did you say
? Pay it all to the Le family?" Grandma Zhang was frightened. I almost fell off the bench and paid the money to Roca. What else do they have?
"No compensation, Mom, do you and your sister want to go to jail? If you don't want to go to jail, stop bragging about how much gift money you want to give to the woman's family. You won't be able to get it by then, and there will be no place to put your face. If you use it to get your wife back, then If the Le family really wants to sue us, my wife will still run away, and we will lose both our lives and our wealth."
Zhang Ke was very irritated, poured the sweet potatoes out of the basket, and went to pick sweet potatoes from the field with a sullen face. He is poor and has no energy. For him, he has no hope in life now. He just has to be a monk and ring bells for a day.
Grandma Zhang was choked to death, tears streaming down her face as she thought that the hundreds of thousands of dollars she had spent before she could keep her warm would go into other people's pockets. What kind of evil had she done? Why was she so unlucky?
