The Cheng family has long heard about Sui Ruren.
But they never thought that Sui Ruren would be Cheng Wanwan, who had already married into the Cheng family.
Later, more detailed versions of the rumors spread to Chengjia Village, and they suddenly realized that the scholar who presented the method to exterminate locusts to the county magistrate was none other than their Zhaoer family?
I heard that the Holy Spirit rewarded me with a jade locust.
I heard that this jade locust is green all over and is worth a thousand taels.
It is said that the jade locust was given to the ninth-grade Sui Ru people.
Upon hearing this, the Cheng family could not sit still.
Mrs. Cheng immediately took her eldest son and daughter-in-law to Dahe Village.
A casual inquiry at the entrance of the village revealed that the person who received the Jade Locust reward was indeed Cheng Zhao of their family.
It is a great honor to receive a reward from the Holy One. That Jade Locust belongs to their Cheng family, how could it be given to Cheng Wanwan!
Cheng Wanwan has become a ninth-grade child, how can she still miss the treasure of their Cheng family!
"Zhao'er, take out the Jade Locust!" Mrs. Cheng said calmly, "This is something belonging to the Cheng family."
Cheng Zhao frowned coldly: "It was the second aunt who proposed the method of exterminating the locusts. This jade locust belongs to the second aunt. Moreover, I have dedicated it to the second aunt and no longer belongs to the Cheng family. Grandma, father and mother, you go back." Bar."
"She is an unworthy village woman. How can she know how to kill locusts? It was clearly your idea!" Old Mrs. Cheng gritted her teeth and said, "You have lived in Dahe Village for these few months and you don't know what your last name is. Right?"
Sister-in-law Cheng stared and said, "Your second aunt is so shameless. You dare to ask for your nephew's things without fear of being struck to death by a thunderbolt from God!"
Zhao Sanniu rushed out of the house and roared: "Auntie, can you try saying this again?"
Sister-in-law Cheng said coldly: "Why are you talking to your elders? Sure enough, your son will be just like your mother."
Zhao Sanniu was really angry.
He couldn't bear it anymore, raised his fist and rushed over.
Mrs. Cheng screamed and hid behind her man.
Brother Cheng picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at Zhao Sanniu's head.
Shen Zheng and Ah Fu rushed over to help.
Chunhua was so frightened that she hurried back to Lao Zhao's house to call for help.
Seeing this scene, Cheng Zhao's forehead veins jumped.
He thought about what his second aunt said to him. About four months ago, the rice vat at his home was bottomed out. He returned to Cheng's house to borrow rice. He didn't borrow any rice that day, and his father smashed his forehead with a brick. It was this incident that caused the second aunt's attitude towards the Cheng family to change drastically.
Half a year has passed, and his father shows no remorse!
"stop!"
Cheng Zhao roared wildly.
The gentle scholar who always spoke in a gentle voice suddenly became furious and shocked everyone.
There was a moment of silence in the courtyard.
Cheng Zhao walked over and snatched the stone from Brother Cheng's hand.
He looked at the three members of the Cheng family with cold eyes and spoke word by word: "I said a long time ago that I would return to the Cheng family before the Chinese New Year, and I hope you won't come again. However, you still come here again and again. Trouble with my second aunt’s family.”
The look in his eyes made Mrs. Cheng very frightened. She twisted her lips and explained: "Zhao'er, we are worried that the jade locusts rewarded by the Holy Spirit will be deceived by your second aunt, so we made this trip..."
"boom!"
Cheng Zhao directly threw the stone on the ground.
There was a loud bang.
The three members of the Cheng family were all shocked. They had never seen Cheng Zhao become so angry.
"I'll pack my things and go back with you!" Cheng Zhao said slowly, "But from today on, I won't study anymore, and I won't take part in next year's college examination. That's all."
He has caused too much trouble to his second aunt by living here. He should have known enough to leave long ago.
But the Cheng family gave him flesh and blood, gave birth to him and raised him, and did their best to provide for him to study. It was impossible for him to sever ties with the Cheng family.
Then, you can only leave.
"Zhao, Zhao'er, what are you talking about?" Old Mrs. Cheng was shocked, "Why don't you study? You have been studying for so many years and you are just waiting to stand out in the college exam next year. You..."
“I said I won’t read anymore!!”
Cheng Zhao growled.
It's him who is incompetent!
He didn't know how to resolve such a situation!
"You bastard!" Brother Cheng raised his hand, "All the family's money is spent on you. If you say you don't want to study, you won't study. Do you have the right to say you don't want to study?"
At that moment when the hand was about to slap Cheng Zhao on the face.
Got caught.
It’s Cheng Wanwan!
She jumped off the carriage, walked over quickly, and grabbed Brother Cheng's hand.
There was a sneer at the corner of her mouth: "Brother is so majestic. He actually caused trouble in the home of a ninth-grade child. Do you know what the crime is?"
Brother Cheng turned his head and saw Cheng Wanwan's face, and he suddenly got angry: "Our Zhao'er, such a good child, was ruined by you! You shameless little whore, it was you who instigated If Zhao'er doesn't study, you won't be able to see our Cheng family well, right..."
"Insulting the royal wife, the crime will be increased to one level!" Cheng Wanwan said with a smile, "Xiao Zheng, tell me how the government will deal with these two charges."
Shen Zheng was already furious.
As a brother, he couldn't bear to see Cheng Zhao, such a gentle and gentle man, being forced into such a situation. However, this was a private matter of the Cheng family, and he couldn't handle it too leniently.
When his name was called, his fighting spirit was immediately aroused.
He said coldly: "If the Sui Ru people report to the government and there are witnesses and physical evidence, the crime will be proven. The offender will have to pay ten taels of silver, have his face carved and inked, and leave his hometown to serve at least one year of hard labor..."
Sister-in-law Cheng's face instantly turned pale. She smiled and said, "It's a misunderstanding. It's all a misunderstanding. How can it be so serious..."
"Haha, we all heard it!" Aunt Wang said standing at the door of the courtyard, "I can serve as a witness!"
Loach walked in and hugged the stone on the ground: "This is physical evidence. I will help you keep it and hide it!"
The witnesses and physical evidence are all complete.
Brother Cheng was filled with disbelief and pointed at Cheng Wanwan's nose: "How dare you..."
"Brother, pay attention to your words and deeds. If you point your finger at the imperial wife, you can add another crime." Cheng Wanwan smiled and said, "Sanniu, ask Li Zheng to come and send these three people to the county government. !”
She usually talks warmly and smiles, and even if she is wearing a child's uniform, she still looks approachable.
But now, she put on the airs of a ninth-grade scholar, with a sharp tone, eyes like daggers, and an aura that was natural.
Only at this moment did the three people of the Cheng family really realize that the second sister-in-law of the Cheng family was really different. After being conferred the title of Sui Ruren by the Holy Master, she was full of official talk, turned against others, and avenged public and private revenge. It was so disgusting!
A person who was once trampled on the soles of his feet is now standing tall and superior. This is how the three people of the Cheng family can swallow this breath.
Sister-in-law Cheng immediately pointed at Cheng Wanwan's nose and cursed: "Send your own mother, eldest brother and sister-in-law to the government. You are not observing filial piety, disrespecting your family, and being so cruel to your relatives. What qualifications do you have to be a ninth grader?" Ruren, you..."
"enough!"
Cheng Zhao growled weakly.
He plopped down and knelt down in front of Cheng Wanwan: "I am willing to be punished instead!"
Shen Zheng suddenly became anxious: "If you go to the government for trial, it will be difficult for you to take the imperial examination in the future. You are kidding about your own future!"
"Zhao'er, don't do this!" Mrs. Cheng quickly grabbed her eldest grandson's shoulders, "You are the most important person in our family, how can we let you be punished! Get up, don't kneel!"
Cheng Wanwan sat on the chair and smiled: "The elders made mistakes, and the younger generation should definitely accept it on their behalf. Zhao'er, go to the county government yourself and confess."
Cheng Zhao responded: "Yes!"
He stood up and left.
Old Mrs. Cheng hurriedly went to pull someone in, but she couldn't hold him back at all.
She looked at the back of her eldest grandson Jue Ran, feeling extremely panicked.
After living for so many years, she finally bowed her head to her second daughter who was already married for the first time: "Tell me, what exactly do you need to do to let Zhao'er go?"
