He locked the door to his room.
Li Dao: "!"
Little beast, he was so angry that he trembled all over. He rushed to the door in a few steps, raised his hand and clapped: "Open the door for me!"
Zhao Erniu was naturally angrier than when she heard Zhou Jingui's words just now. It was outrageous.
She subconsciously opened her mouth to curse, but severe pain enveloped her again, and this time, along with the pain was the smell of blood.
Her wound started bleeding again.
Zhao Erniu: "..."
Let no one live anymore!
Everyone in the yard naturally saw Li Dazhong locking the door and heard Li Dao yelling.
Facing everyone's different gazes, Li Dazhong smiled bitterly: "It's okay, it's so clean, you can continue talking."
Everyone: "..."
Li Ping coughed lightly.
How could she be so rare in this kind of moment? She came here specifically to see Zhao Erniu's injury. Looking at the smile on Li Dazhong's face that was uglier than crying, she sighed softly.
Then, just as Li Dazhong said, she spoke to Zhou Jingui: "Aunt Jingui, I thought about what you just said carefully, and I feel that just like Guihua's words, there are no loopholes and they are flawless."
"Since I can't find a way to refute it, then your words are probably the truth."
"It seems that this child Chuntao was really wronged. It's so pitiful that she was almost forced to death."
As soon as Li Ping said these words, the villagers' attention shifted from Li Dazhong.
Of course, finding the truth is the most important thing.
They began to think about Zhou Jingui's words, but no matter how they thought about it, they seemed unable to refute it.
"Perhaps this is really an eye-opener for God?"
"Is Chuntao really innocent?"
"Then why doesn't God punish the person named Zhou?"
"Forehead……"
Yes, the culprit is clearly Zhou Mingsheng. God really wants to clarify Li Chuntao, why not punish Zhou Mingsheng?
Zhou Jingui heard this and sneered: "It's because the time has not come yet, it's not because I don't want to report that the time has not come yet! This ungrateful beast named Zhou will never escape!"
Li Ping also nodded: "It's not yet time. After all, Aunt Erniu went too far yesterday. She wronged Chuntao and insisted on eating Chuntao's food."
"The person surnamed Zhou is sinister and looks like a human being on the surface. But Aunt Erniu is so hysterical and noisy, tsk... I guess it will annoy God even more."
Villager: "..."
It seems reasonable.
Naturally, they were watching the two scenes of Zhao Erniu's troubles and did not think it was a big deal, but if they were asked to objectively evaluate Zhao Erniu's behavior, it would indeed be quite noisy...
"So, Chuntao was indeed wronged, and Aunt Erniu was indeed punished by God."
Li Ping said, looking at the banging door: "I hope Aunt Erniu will change her temper, so as not to provoke God to take action again."
No one present refuted Li Ping's words, and neither did Li Dazhong.
Li Dazhong didn't refute. The villagers thought about it for a while and quickly dispersed without finding a more reasonable explanation.
Although they wanted to watch the fun, there was a lot of work in the fields at home, and they couldn't stay here forever.
As they went back to their respective homes, Zhou Jingui's words that God would punish Zhao Erniu and clear Li Chuntao's innocence also spread throughout Sanliu Village.
In the afternoon, Li Qiao and Tao Zhu learned about this from the villagers who came to sell things.
The two naturally nodded in agreement.
Well, except for God, there is no explanation for this.
Zhao Erniu was punished by God!
Tao Zhu was very happy. With such a reputation, Zhao Erniu would not come to his house to cause trouble in a short time.
However, considering Li Dazhong, he said to Li Qiao: "It will definitely cost a lot of money to treat Third Aunt's injuries. How about we secretly give Brother Dazhong some money?"
"He will definitely not accept it." Li Qiao shook his head: "Forget it, let's see later. He seems to be suppressing the third uncle and the third aunt now."
"Brother Dazhong is so unlucky to meet such parents."
Tao Zhu thought of his parents and sighed softly.
Because of his marriage, no one in the Tao family worked, and there was no food left in the family. Therefore, the Tao family soon ran out of food.
Mrs. Tao came to him to ask for it, but he wouldn't give it to her.
Mrs. Tao had no choice but to harvest the wheat herself.
But she had not done much work in these years, so she could not bear the tiring work of wheat harvesting. After only working for half a day, she went home tired and lay in bed.
Tao Shu had no choice but to work in the fields in order not to starve to death.
But he has been lazy for so many years, and there is no material for work. He can't bear this kind of backbreaking work even more than Mrs. Tao.
He quickly thought of a trick. He cut off the ears of wheat with scissors, took them home and threshed them with a stone mill. He cut off as much as he could eat.
As for the wheat straw, drop it as much as you like, but there is nothing he can do now.
Relying on this lazy method, Tao Shu and the four of them did not starve to death.
After the meal problem was solved, Tao Shu and Lai Dongmei started making maltose again.
Tao Zhu felt worried.
In the past, when he was around, after harvesting the wheat, he would continue to grow food, such as corn and sweet potatoes, so as to ensure that the family had food to eat and would not starve to death.
At present, the four Tao family members only see the wheat in front of them. If the wheat is eaten, then they will have to rely on him again.
bother.
"It's not the right time for us to get involved. Let's take it one step at a time. Let's make money first."
Li Qiao didn't know that he was thinking of Tao Shu and the others. When he saw the faint lines between his eyebrows, he raised his hand and pressed his eyebrows twice.
"Don't worry, it will definitely get better."
"……Um!"
Tao Zhu nodded heavily.
The life now is so good, he never dared to dream of such a life before.
Not thinking about the four Tao family members, he quickly made snacks.
In the next few days, the most talked about thing in the village was the fact that Zhao Erniu was punished by God himself.
Everyone discussed and discussed, but no one could find any reasonable words to refute Zhou Jingui's words, so the three words "condemned by God" really fell on Zhao Erniu.
Zhao Erniu was so angry that she couldn't sleep. She hammered the bed every day, which could easily affect the wound. The bleeding that had finally been stopped started to flow again.
Just like this, her wound healed very slowly.
Li Dao was also very angry.
He wanted to rush to Li Gu's house to argue, but he didn't have the courage.
He wanted to get angry with Li Dazhong, but Li Dazhong ignored him at all and just kept his head down while working.
His wheat has not yet been dried and put into the warehouse.
Moreover, his family also planted sweet potatoes. The sweet potatoes should be watered, otherwise they will die from drought.
Also, Li Dazhong and Han Xiaoyan have a son and a daughter, one is three years old and the other is less than two years old, which is the age when they need someone to take care of them.
Li Dazhong, Zhao Erniu, and Han Xiaoyan used to do all these things together as a family of four.
But now Han Xiaoyan was driven back to her parents' home by Li Dazhong, and Zhao Erniu was bedridden. If he didn't work, the crops in the field and his grandchildren would all be ruined!
There was no other way, so Li Dao naturally had no choice but to suppress his anger and work first.
As a result, Li Qiao and Tao Zhu really spent a few days in peace.
On this day, the weather was gloomy, there was no wind in the air, and it was extremely hot and muggy.
When Xiao Wu arrived at Li Qiao's house, there were beads of sweat on his forehead.
It was early in the morning, and he didn't do any work. He just drove the carriage here. Even so, he was sweating all over, which showed how sultry the weather was.
He took down an earthenware pot from the carriage. The earthenware pot contained cane sugar, which Li Qiao asked him to buy for making snacks.
He handed the pottery pot to Li Qiao and said happily: "It's so boring, it should rain."
Li Qiao took the clay pot and thanked him, then handed him a bowl of vegetable pimple soup and said with a smile: "Raining is a good thing. The folks don't have to work so hard to water the crops. I made the pimple soup this morning. There's a little too much, I haven't finished drinking it yet, little brother Wu, please try it."
Xiao Wu thanked him, not as polite as before.
Now he and Li Qiao are familiar with each other. Li Qiao is busy making snacks and has no time to go to the county town. If he needs any raw materials or other items, he asks him to buy them.
With this back and forth, the politeness naturally became less frequent.
He sat on a small bench and talked about the situation in the county while drinking pimple soup.
"With the reputation of Feng Gao and Dama Hua, the shopkeeper directly sells Qingtuan to these regular customers. All the customers who have tried it will praise it."
"In just a few days, Qingtuan has become the most popular snack in the county. Customers have to make reservations in advance, otherwise they won't be able to buy it at all."
"The shopkeeper sells one for thirty-five cents. Even so, the supply exceeds demand."
"However, when I was serving food to the guests the day before yesterday, I heard a customer saying that he wanted to eat Qingtuan dumplings with other fillings. The customer seemed to be very knowledgeable. I listened to a few words and he said that Qingtuan dumplings are just like those dumplings. Yes, there are all kinds of fillings.”
Li Qiao happened to come out holding the wooden box with the green dumplings. When he heard this, he smiled and said: "This guest knows the goods. The green dumplings do have a lot of stuffing. I heard that in the south, every household makes green dumplings during the Qingming Festival." , you can make whatever stuffing you like."
He deliberately blurred the region and called Jiangnan the south. Anyway, he "read" about the Youth League from miscellaneous books, so it was normal for him not to remember clearly.
"However, Brother Zhu and I are very busy at the moment. We can only make one red bean paste stuffing and our feet won't touch the ground. Let's talk about other stuffings later."
"Yes, the bean paste filling is in short supply. If you can't handle it, forget it." Xiao Wu said.
He took a sip of pimple soup and thought of the scene he saw in the county town yesterday, and said hurriedly: "Brother Qiao, I accidentally saw your uncle when I went to buy cane sugar yesterday. He was having sex with a scholar-looking man. , I heard your uncle call him Xiao Gao."
