The woman is about fifty years old, tall and thick, looking like a man.
The two men are tall and thin. One of them has black and white hair and looks much older. The younger one has an unusually pale face and cloudy eyes. He looks like he is in his thirties.
The old man looked reluctant when being pulled by the woman, and the younger man also had a face full of resistance. He probably couldn't win over the woman and could only move forward passively.
Looking at the three people, everyone had strange expressions.
This person really said Cao Cao without thinking, and Cao Cao arrived.
Someone shouted, "Luo Dazui, it's so shameless to be dragged away by a mother-in-law like this. Xiongqi gives Sister Xu a good beating."
"He is afraid that he will only dare to eat his ambition."
"Even if I dare, I can't stand Sister Xu's skin!"
Being teased by everyone, Luo Dazui raised his head in embarrassment, and his feet moved a little faster.
Xu Zhen glared at everyone and shouted angrily: "Why are a bunch of people eating family food and doing wild shit arguing here? I've heard a lot of gossip in the past few days, and it's all spread by you guys with your long tongues."
Not only was the woman's physique comparable to that of the man, but her voice was even more so. Her powerful voice was heard far away, not only resounding above the crowd, but also reaching the building.
Li Xiucheng, who was chatting with his father, stopped, looked at his slightly frowning father and said with a smile, "It's Aunt Xu and the others who are here."
"Well, those people haven't left yet, let's go out and take a look."
As soon as the two stood up, Mother Li also walked out of the kitchen. The three of them strode out of the door and saw the Xu Zhen family walking into the yard and the villagers approaching quickly.
The number of people in the village was already reduced by half, but Xu Zhen's voice attracted many people over, instantly filling the gap in the yard. Even the three off-road vehicles were crowded with people.
In this way, there are still many people outside who are weighing their feet and planning to watch the fun.
Li Xiucheng frowned slightly, but this was the norm in the countryside. Normally, everyone in the village would be very enthusiastic to help with minor matters when someone had a big house, but when it was time to watch the excitement, they would not be left behind at all.
He didn't have much to say about this.
Instead, Mother Li stepped forward and smiled at Xu Zhen: "Brother Luo and Sister-in-law Xu are here. Come and sit in the room quickly."
"No!" Xu Zhen raised his hand and said: "Changxiu, I'm here today. The main reason is to talk about Xiaojun." After saying that, he looked at Li Xiucheng, grinned and said, "I heard that Xiucheng When you come back, come here quickly.
It seems like we haven’t seen each other for several years! "
"I haven't come back very often in the past few years." Although the root cause of the matter was this matter, Li Xiucheng actually had a good impression of Xu Zhen. He smiled politely, turned slightly and said, "Auntie, yes Let’s go inside and have a drink of water to talk about it slowly.”
Xu is a common surname in the village. Many people in the village, including my mother, have the surname Xu. Tracing back to the origin, many people are actually related to each other.
Xu Zhen was married from the village. She was not far away from Luojiawan, opposite the small river ditch in the west of the village. It was one of those villages where if someone roared hard, they could be heard clearly across the street.
However, Xu Zhen's life was not good. She gave birth to a daughter first and then a son, Luo Xiaojun, five or six years later. As a result, Luo Dazui fell down while moving rocks up a mountain not two years after his second child. Although his life was saved, he could no longer do heavy work.
The burden of life suddenly fell on her as a woman. You must know that at this time, digging the ground and weeding in the countryside were light tasks. It was normal to collect grain and carry firewood, carrying a basket of one or two hundred kilograms.
These tasks would have been beyond the capabilities of ordinary women, but she endured them with all her strength. Not only did she support her son and daughter, but she also took good care of Luo Dazui.
It was precisely this that made her famous in Bali Township. Everyone admired her and said she was more powerful than men.
The relationship between the two families has always been good. Because he is the only child in the Li family, life has been less stressful since he was a child. His mother is kind-hearted and often helps her family.
Later, when the family had little money to build a house, their parents asked several relatives to borrow money, either through fussing or making excuses, but Xu Zhen took the initiative to lend his daughter the 150 yuan gift money for her marriage to his family.
Li Xiucheng naturally kept this love in mind.
After the renovation of the stone factory was completed, a new batch of workers had to be added. Because the stone factory is a physical job, the first recruitment selection criterion is good health and ability to work hard.
Xu Zhen took Luo Xiaojun to find Hu Changan to apply for the job. Hu Changan naturally knew the relationship between the two families and kept the person without taking the exam. However, something happened that surprised everyone. Luo Xiaojun, a grown man, had no strength at all. , even worse than women.
This is simply unbelievable. You must know that people nowadays are born in the fields, and the most indispensable thing is a handful of strength.
It's just that Luo Dazui was injured and couldn't exert any strength. Luo Xiaojun was only twenty-four or five years old. He was in his prime, how could this happen?
Hu Changan pressed forward and finally found out the truth.
It turns out that Luo Dazui likes to make medicinal wine since he was injured, hoping to maintain his health and heal his body. It is probably because the taste of the medicinal wine is not too spicy. As a result, the young Hu Xiaojun secretly drank it for some reason, and then became obsessed with the taste. .
Over time, he became addicted to alcohol. The two adults later found out about this, but they didn't care about it because they thought there was no problem with a little alcohol.
Later, Xu Zhen asked someone to find connections and asked Luo Xiaojun to work in the county town, hoping to save some money so that he could marry a daughter-in-law and continue the Luo family lineage.
As a result, this guy lost his scruples and actually started drinking alcohol every day. Two years later, he missed countless jobs because of drinking, and finally lost his job and failed to save any money.
Xu Zhen was so angry that she scolded him and forced him to come to work in the stone factory. Even she couldn't believe the result.
Now she was really panicked. She suffered deeply from her husband's lifelong weakness and knew that no woman would want to marry such a loser.
She was afraid that her son would be a bachelor for the rest of his life.
When Hu Changan said that Luo Xiaojun was not qualified for the job, she strictly ordered Luo Xiaojun to stop drinking and found her mother, Xu Changxiu, to intercede.
Then the person stayed, but changed to a more relaxed position.
For this reason, some relatives took advantage of this incident and came to see me. They hoped to work in a factory or get a good position.
My father sternly refused on the pretext of borrowing money, which made him very unhappy with everyone.
Originally, this incident would just go away after a fuss, but Luo Xiaojun failed to live up to expectations. He couldn't bear the feeling of alcohol addiction and secretly drank in the factory, which delayed his work several times.
At this time, his father was already in charge of the factory. When he noticed something was wrong, he immediately persuaded him. It was effective at first, but later Luo Xiaojun completely turned a deaf ear.
In desperation, his father gave all his salary to Xu Zhen, thinking that now that he has no money, you will not be able to drink!
The result of the matter was that Luo Xiaojun was such a bastard that he actually stole metal accessories from the factory and sold them to buy alcohol.
The mechanic discovered something was wrong and went to Li's father. This investigation revealed the problem, which made him furious.
