"From my second son's house, please open the door. I have something to tell you."
When Yang's voice came, Mei Huiniang looked at Jin Yan, who looked proud, and said with a smile: "You really got it right."
Jin Yan: "It's easy to guess."
Mei Huiniang said: "Mom, I didn't expect that my daughter is smart."
Yang's voice outside the door became louder and louder, one sound drowning out the other.
She no longer kept secrets, but went straight to the point and said that she had something to ask for.
When people in the village heard the commotion, they came to watch the fun.
Some people scoffed when they heard Ms. Yang say she had no money to buy medicine.
No money to buy medicine?
Do you have the money to buy Wen Tan a long gown and calligraphy treasures so that he can take the exam again and again?
Mei Huiniang came out just in time. When she heard this, she immediately said: "Sister-in-law, why can't I understand what you are saying? Your daughter is sick, and you and your wife did not find a doctor for her. Instead, you came to find me, a vicious, selfish and insidious person who is across the room from you." Cunning aunt, what’s the point?”
Soon someone was laughing.
Out of some subtle and dark psychology, they really don't like lucky people like Mei Huiniang who have been born in a honeypot since childhood and don't know what suffering is, but they definitely don't like Dafang who only hides behind her back and plays tricks. villain.
After the jeers rang out, Yang's face suddenly lost its composure.
As for Wen Tan, who was hiding in the room and not coming out to wait for the result, his expression was even more embarrassing and angry.
A bunch of thugs!
Wait until he reaches high school and see how he deals with these stupid people!
Mrs. Yang was already very resistant to bowing her head to Mei Huiniang, and the ridicule from the villagers made her extremely embarrassed.
Thinking of the family's predicament, she still said under tremendous pressure: "What the second brother and sister said is a bit heartbreaking. You are also a mother. I thought you could understand our thoughts as parents. If it weren't for the fact that we couldn't get around, I do not know either……"
Mei Huiniang sneered and said, "Since my sister-in-law mentioned this, I will also tell you."
Yang suddenly felt a little uneasy.
I only heard Mei Huiniang scolding: "If I remember correctly, when Da Ya was bitten by a snake while digging wild vegetables, you kept telling me, 'If you can't save me, it will be in vain,' and you even stopped me from spending money to find her." Doctor, save Da Ya.
When my precious daughter was sick and saw a doctor, you said more than once that it was a waste of money, and you encouraged me, a mother, to watch my daughter's illness with cold eyes.
Now that it's your biological daughter's turn, you have the consciousness to become a mother? "
She coldly lowered her face, and her sharp eyes scratched Yang's face like a knife, "Why, your daughter is the only flesh that fell from your body. You have a headache and fever that makes you have to call a doctor. Someone else's daughter was born in ten months. They are all grass, so they should grow and perish on their own. Can't life and death be determined by heaven?"
When Mrs. Wang from the third room heard this, she immediately started crying angrily, "My eldest daughter, my son, you are so pitiful!"
The accusing eyes of the villagers fell on Yang.
Yang's face turned pale. She had used all her wisdom in her life, but she had no idea how to deal with Mei Huiniang.
Just because Mei Huiniang had done all the things she said, and some people in the village also knew about it.
Mei Huiniang didn't give Yang a chance to think too much.
She looked at Mr. Yang indifferently and said, "If the eldest son can't even pay for a doctor for his child, then what can his uncle do to take the exam? What can Zimo and Wen Hu do to help Xiu?"
As a man and a scholar, Wen Tan couldn't bear to hear this.
Mei, this shrew!
Doesn't this clearly mean he is not a man?
This was simply more unbearable than slapping him in the face with the sole of a shoe!
Wen Tan clenched his fists and wanted to rush out and scold Mei Huiniang, "You are a madam, but you have long hair and short knowledge. What do you know?"
But as soon as he took a step, his wrist was grabbed.
Looking back, it was Wen Zimo.
"What are you doing?" Wen Tan glared at him angrily.
Wen Zimo sighed, "Dad, you better not go out, otherwise someone will say that you are standing behind my mother and reaping the benefits."
And this word has long been spread in the village.
There are decent people in the Wen family's big house. Occasionally something disgraceful happens, and it is done by the ignorant woman in the family. It has nothing to do with the big men holding books all day long.
There are countless words like this.
The goal of ruining the reputation of the second house was achieved, but how much better could the first house be?
Wen Tan's face turned red after hearing this, "That's nonsense! Let me see who dares to say that in front of me!"
He is the future prime minister, who dares to risk his life in front of him!
Wen Zimo looked at Wen Tan calmly and said, "Second Aunt."
Seeing Wen Tan's face showing shame and disdain, he added, "There is also the second uncle."
As long as the second uncle is at home today, he will never let the second aunt show up to argue with outsiders about these things.
Wen Tan: "..."
The appearance of the word "Second Uncle" seemed to remind Wen Tan of something.
He didn't get angry again, nor did he impulsively go out to find a woman to argue with him, but his face became more and more distorted and his breathing became shorter and shorter.
Seeing this, Wen Zimo said quickly: "The matter is now over. You can't change anything if you go out. It's just that my mother, who has always been virtuous and courteous, feels wronged by being pointed at and scolded in public."
Little Yang who was in the courtyard showed disdain again when he heard this.
At the door, Mrs. Yang was speechless by what Mei Huiniang said.
But there was that fearless busybody who deliberately said: "Ms. Yang, tell me, where did the money come from after studying at Wen University for so many years? Could it be brought by the strong wind?"
This was a well-known lame man in the village. He was already in his thirties and had not yet married. He had accidentally soiled Wen Tan's clothes before and was publicly humiliated by Wen Tan several times. He also held grudges in his heart.
Soon another person said: "This is not just caused by the strong wind. The whole family is not engaged in production. The grain is planted willingly by someone who has been taken advantage of. The money is given to a filial son and his filial brother without asking for anything in return. Once you pay it back, it will last ten or twenty years." Helping to support a large family, you don’t feel bad about spending this kind of money that you didn’t earn yourself, what’s the difference between it and the money blown by the strong wind?”
This man was a woodcutter with a reputation as a kinsman in the village. After being expelled by his tribe, he learned hunting skills from Wen Lan. Now he lives alone in the mountains, and occasionally goes down the mountain to sell firewood in exchange for food and vegetables.
After the lame man and the woodcutter finished talking, the laughter around them started to rise one after another.
But behind the gloating faces, there is envy that is difficult for others to touch.
What if we don't have the same people but different fates?
If Wen Lan was their elder brother or younger brother, they would definitely give Wen Lan up as a sacrifice, instead of being as ignorant and greedy as Wen Tan's family!
Yang had already been scolded so hard that she couldn't hold her head up.
At this time, Mei Huiniang spoke again, "Sister-in-law, it's useless to talk more. If you are really unwilling to spend money to save your biological daughter, then for the sake of being a family, I can buy her a pair on behalf of her second uncle. A fine coffin.”
