Wanghai County, Changping Village, the third room of Lao Yang's family.
Yang Huazhong and Sun both quickly got up and comforted Liu, asking her to take it easy.
Mrs. Sun said: "Fourth brother and sister, please don't get angry in a hurry, and don't say such outrageous words. I believe Aunt Lian'er also has her own reasons, otherwise she wouldn't deliberately lie to us like that."
Yang Huazhong even said: "Fourth brother and sister, please sit down and let me speak clearly. You must give me a chance to speak."
Old Yang said with a fierce face: "To put it bluntly, what if you are deaf and mute? Your sister-in-law will be deaf and mute after she was born, won't she be fine for the rest of her life? Why don't we, Old Yang, give birth to four children at once? A son!"
Everyone was suddenly quiet for a moment, and all looked at Lao Yangtou.
Even Lao Ji and the Zhou family were full of astonishment. They didn't understand how the head of the old Yang family could speak to them and help them.
But Lao Yangtou's words also gave Lao Ji and the Zhou family confidence, which showed that Jin Chuan still had a chance!
Therefore, Ms. Zhou's heart suddenly changed, and she knelt down in front of Ms. Liu with a loud sound. She raised her hand and slapped herself in the face.
This move frightened everyone in the hall.
Mrs. Liu shut up, and Mrs. Sun quickly bent down to help Mrs. Zhou.
Xiao An was helping to refill the tea, and when he saw this, he wanted to come forward, but due to the differences between men and women and the order of elders and younger ones, he hesitated.
When he hesitated, Yang Ruoqing also extended her hand to Zhou.
"Aunt Ji, we are all relatives. If you have anything to say, sit down and say it. The ground is cold."
This Zhou family is Lian'er's biological aunt. Even though the relationship between Lian'er's uncle and aunt and Lian'er's mother, He's mother, was not very happy at first, the He family finally accepted these people from her mother's family again.
Therefore, when Mrs. Zhou came to Lao Yang's house this time, if she continued to kneel on the ground and talk, Mother He would be very embarrassed if she found out.
Xiao An was standing at the scene, and Xiao An was also very embarrassed! And Xiao An is a man, so it is not convenient for him to come over and tease her, so Yang Ruoqing, the sister, must come forward.
Mrs. Zhou didn't think much of it and said, "I shouldn't have lied to everyone. I am guilty and I have no shame, but I really have my own reasons..."
Mrs. Sun said, "What's your reason? Why don't you sit down and say, kneeling like this, what does it look like?"
Mrs. Liu also came back to her senses. Although her tone was still reproachful, her aura was a bit more restrained than before: "What are you doing? Don't look like you're aggrieved. It's like I'm being bullied too much." You, don’t forget, it was you who first deceived me and our old Yang family, and our family’s well-off boy is the one who has the biggest grievance!”
Mrs. Liu spoke so much that she spitted all over Mrs. Zhou's head and face, as if it was snowing...
Yang Ruoqing was so frightened that she pulled Zhou up with a strong effort on her wrist and dragged her back to the stool here...
She didn't want to be implicated, and she didn't want to be together with the Zhou family...
"Don't kneel anymore. If you kneel again, I will be really unhappy!" Yang Ruoqing lowered her face and gave a serious warning to Zhou who was trying to get up again.
Mr. Zhou sat stiffly on the stool, not daring to get up and stir again.
Yang Ruoqing turned to Mrs. Liu again and said, "Fourth Aunt, you've almost vented your anger. You should take a break and let Aunt Ji say a few words. If her difficulties don't move us, I won't get your forgiveness." Then let’s not mention the marriage. Let’s treat this as a relative and come over for a walk, and let’s show our friendship as landlords.”….
Madam Liu gritted her teeth, glared at Madam Zhou angrily, and sat down.
As soon as he sat down, he suddenly jumped up from the stool, dragged his stool towards the Eight Immortals Table, found a seat away from Zhou, and then sat down again.
This move made Zhou even more ashamed, with a look of decadence and helplessness on his face.
Lao Ji was also so embarrassed that he wanted to get under the table and kept scolding Mr. Zhou: "Look, look, what did I say? I told you to tell the truth, but you refused to listen. There is a price to pay for lying. Yes, it’s still a heavier price!”
Yang Huazhong patted Lao Ji on the shoulder, "We have something to talk about. If we have any problems, let's discuss them together and try our best to find ways to solve them. Don't be impatient.
Sit, sit! "
Everyone finally sat down, and Mrs. Sun put Zhou's tea bowl into her hand: "Moisten your throat before talking."
Zhou nodded gratefully and told everyone the whole story directly without drinking tea.
"My niece is a poor girl. When she was a child, she was a normal person. She could hear and speak."
"Later, when my sister passed away, Jin Chuan's father left home, and the two children took their fields and fled to live under the roof of their uncle and aunt."
"That uncle has a similar temper to their father. They are both violent and will hit people after drinking. My aunt is not kind either."
"One year during the twelfth lunar month, her uncle's family killed the New Year pig to make lard. At that time, Jin Chuan and her brother were in their teens and three years old. There was no trace of meat in their stomachs. They were looking at the deep-fried food on the pot table. Jin Chuan and her brother I was greedy, so I ate one secretly, and accidentally knocked over the bowl of grease..."
"Her aunt rushed into the kitchen and saw oil residue spilled on the floor. She asked who was responsible. Jin Chuan was afraid that her brother would be beaten, so she took the matter on herself."
"As a result, that poisonous woman immediately grabbed the child's mouth and poured a ladle of hot oil into the child's mouth..."
Zhou held the tea bowl in both hands, her fingers were trembling, and the tea that had just been refilled in the tea bowl overflowed and splashed onto her hands...
Mrs. Sun's eyes were red when she heard this, especially the part where Jin Chuan's mouth was pinched open and hot oil was forced into her mouth. Ms. Sun was so shocked that she gasped and felt so distressed that she almost shed tears.
"Sister Zhou, be careful. Are your hands burned?"
It wasn't until the tea in Zhou's bowl overflowed onto the back of her hand that Sun came back to her senses, stood up and leaned over to show her concern.
Mrs. Zhou put the tea bowl on the table and gently rubbed the back of her hand which was slightly red. Her voice was choked with sobs: "I am an adult with rough skin and thick flesh. The back of my hand hurts when I spill tea. I pity my niece." Jin Chuan, who is only ten years old, had such hot oil poured into his mouth..."
"The child fainted on the spot and came back after going around hell. The skin and flesh in his mouth were burned to pieces. He couldn't eat for more than half a month. He could only drink rice soup, noodle soup, wild vegetable porridge and other things to survive."
"It hurts so much to cry when I drink water, but I can't cry because my throat has been burned. Since then, the child has been mute..."
Zhou covered her mouth, tears falling down like broken beads.
Sun also raised his sleeves to wipe the corners of his eyes.
Everyone in the hall was worried when they heard this.
Even Mrs. Liu, who loves to listen to gossip and anecdotes, frowned at this moment, with an expression of extreme discomfort on her face.
"How can there be such a cruel aunt in the world? I can't be so cruel even to my own concubine! This will be punished by God! Bah!"
Not only did Liu feel uncomfortable, he also made some angry words of condemnation. .
