Xiaoduo continued, "It turns out that Grandma Jiaojiao took the woolen material back to her parents' home and delivered it to Mr. Zhuo."
"Mr. Zhuo's youngest son happened to be talking about getting married, and there was something on the girl's side. Mrs. Zhuo pulled Grandma Jiaojiao together and worked hard. So, the chickens, ducks, fish, and wool materials were all delivered to Mrs. Zhuo. In this way, we worked together to negotiate with the woman."
"This happened later, and everyone was very angry. They felt that the mother-in-law should not steal the daughter-in-law's dowry to support her parents' family, so they asked her to go back and get the woolen material."
"When I talk about these things now, I feel very uncomfortable. If my mother-in-law had told us directly about this matter, we wouldn't have really made it difficult for her to get it. We didn't even know that the woolen material had been given away. Even after traveling so far away, I didn’t know that the wool material was related to Katsuo’s cousin’s marriage.”
"Auntie, this has nothing to do with you. It's you who lost things. You're right." Baby Luo continued, "Auntie, please talk about it later."
Xiaoduo nodded, and when he continued to speak, his eye circles became red.
"Only now do we know that my mother-in-law told us that she would rather die than go back to her parents' house to get the things back. She said that the things given away were just water thrown out, and she would never get them back."
"But in fact, my mother-in-law has already mentioned this matter to Ms. Zhuo in private. Ms. Zhuo became anxious and had a big quarrel with my mother-in-law."
"The day my mother-in-law and my father-in-law quarreled, that is, the day of the full-moon banquet, Mrs. Zhuo was actually already in the house. She came here just to coax my mother-in-law into something more, so that my mother-in-law could bear the pressure from the Xiang family. , don’t pursue the matter of the woolen material.”
"She was the one who taught my mother-in-law how to pretend to hang herself. She asked her to scare my father-in-law and the others. When my father-in-law quarreled, Ms. Zhuo hid behind the bed. Later, after my father-in-law left, she tricked my mother-in-law into going outside the house and secretly cut off her hair. rope."
"Later, my mother-in-law hanged herself and she really hung to death."
Xiaoduo's tears fell down, and everyone at the table also had red eyes.
"This Mrs. Zhuo is so cruel and ruthless. She didn't take her sister-in-law's life seriously just for a piece of wool." Mrs. Sun spat on the ground and said angrily.
"It's not for a piece of material, it's for the second son's marriage." Mrs. Sun corrected.
The eldest Sun became even more angry, "You can't do this even if it's for marriage. The boy's marriage has not been agreed, and the next one will be discussed. What's the big deal? My sister-in-law only has one life. If this one is gone, it will be really bad." It’s gone. This Zhuo family is so cruel. This is the kind of person that the most vicious women think of. Being a relative or sister-in-law with her is really bad luck for eight lifetimes."
Xiaohua also said, "So, I agree with our baby's original insistence. People like this should be caught out and let her hang around us all the time. We may not know when something will make her unhappy, and then she will be harmed again." people"
Luo Baobao really agreed with Xiaohua's words, "She has already killed the first person. This kind of bad thing can only be done zero times or a hundred times. Since she did it once, she doesn't have anything to worry about. If she gets in the way, things like this will go smoothly from now on, so it’s too dangerous and terrible, so we must find her out and let her receive the punishment she deserves.”
When it comes to this punishment, all the women immediately pay attention to it.
"Yes, what will be the punishment if you are caught by an official?" someone asked.
Da Sun said, "Since ancient times, people have to kill people to pay for their lives, and 80% of them will be beheaded."
"I have never heard of a woman being beheaded," said Sun. She was frightened when she heard it, so she cut it off with a knife, leaving a scar as big as a bowl on her neck.
"Even if you don't get beheaded, you still have to sit through the jail," someone else said.
"A person like that who is cruel and doesn't take human life seriously deserves to be jailed," Xiaoduo said.
"It's a pity that my mother-in-law didn't have to die. We really didn't expect that she said she wouldn't go get it, but actually went back to get it in private. Does this mean she still has Shengnan in her heart and still cares about her husband? It's from the Xiang family, right?" Xiaoduo murmured to herself again, feeling particularly uncomfortable as she always felt sorry for her mother-in-law.
The others looked at each other, understanding how she felt.
"Duo'er, don't think so much. All of this is fate. It's only Zhuo who is so bad." Mrs. Sun and others comforted Xiaoduo.
But some things cannot be solved with just a few words of comfort. Time, time is the best medicine.
In the morning of the next day, Xiang Shengnan arrived at Xiangjiazhuang with his officials. Under the watch of almost all the villagers, he escorted the Zhuo family to the county government office. The next step was to accept the punishment according to Daqi law. Pay the due price for her greed and cold-bloodedness.
Xiaoduo and Jiaojiao settled down at her parents' house.
As for what happened with the Xiang family, villages all over the place knew about it, and almost every place with people was talking about it.
There are people with various opinions, but no matter how hot the topic is, it will gradually become dull with the passage of time, and the conversation will be boring, like sugar cane that has been chewed countless times without any sweetness.
By that time, the enthusiasm naturally subsided, and gradually no one talked about this topic.
Xiaoduo, on the other hand, was at her parents' house, taking Jiaojiao and Xiaohua to take care of Fuwa every day, and having Mrs. Sun help out, so she was living a very comfortable life.
Yang Huazhong was sent by Mrs. Sun to go to the town every now and then to buy groceries. So after a few days, Xiaoduo's face became rounder, her body gained a lot of flesh, and her complexion improved. I had seen her look like a confinement person before. It is said that Xiaoduo looks like a serious person who has been in confinement for a long time.
"Duoer, we won't be cooking at noon. Your aunt invited us over to have dinner together." Mrs. Sun came in from outside and said to Xiaohua and Xiaoduo in the room.
"Mom, is there any happy event at aunt's house?" Xiaohua asked curiously.
Xiao Duo said, "Could it be that Dajie and Huang Mao came back with their children?"
Sun smiled and nodded, "Yes, I'm back, but I'm not home yet. I guess I'll be there soon."
Hearing this, Xiaohua and Xiaoduo suddenly became excited, "That's great, we're going to see Huangmao's child."
"Let's go for a walk. Fuwa and Jiaojiao happen to be awake, so we can carry them over and wait."
In the middle of the morning, almost all the family relatives gathered at Sun's house, Luo Baobao also came, and Dajie and Huang Mao's carriage slowly appeared at the other end of the official road.
When the carriage was about to arrive at the entrance of the yard, Mrs. Sun quickly urged Xiaojie's father, "Quickly, take out the firecrackers and light the firecrackers."
