The village chief was a little anxious and shouted directly: "These are your nephews and nieces, members of your Wang family!"
"If you don't care, you will wait for the villagers to laugh at you from now on! Poke you in the back!"
The third daughter-in-law waved her hand and said: "Don't do this to me, I won't eat it!"
"You're right, you're still the head of our village! You're very enlightened, and you're in charge of the life and death of a villager. How about you raise the child?"
"Anyway, your family has only two children. As you said, Wenjuan and Wenbin are older. It doesn't take much effort. It's just a matter of giving them an extra pair of chopsticks! What do you think? Why don't you take care of it?" said the third daughter-in-law. He raised his voice and pointed at the village chief, "You just stand and talk without your back hurting!"
This is such a big deal, why did the topic turn to him?
How is it that he, Wenjuan and Wenbin are not related to each other and are raising them? Besides, his wife and he were both annoyed with the Wang family, especially Liu Dahua, who wanted to go around when they saw her before.
Seeing that the village chief didn't speak, the eldest daughter-in-law snorted, "I know that all of you officials know how to speak in an official manner!"
The village chief said: "Don't be unreasonable, okay? We are here to solve the problem, let's discuss it carefully."
The eldest daughter-in-law said in disbelief, "Humph, you're talking like an official again. You really don't care about anything."
The village chief's wife was so angry that she almost started a quarrel, but the secretary stopped her and said, "Okay, let's talk about business."
The secretary suggested: "How about you take care of these two children as a family for a month, taking turns? This way you can reduce some of the burden."
The two families said in unison: "No! Why!"
"We have no money, not even a penny! Whoever of you wants to take care of Wenjuan or Wenbin can take care of it." The third daughter-in-law pointed at Yan Zhen and said, "Let Yan Zhen take care of it!"
"Isn't Yan Zhen their previous sister-in-law? There must be feelings! Besides, she lives in the city and has money! Unlike us, we have no money! We are poor! We can't even care about ourselves! Who cares who has money? !”
"What you said is unreasonable!" The village chief pointed at Yan Zhen and said, "She is kind-hearted if she can send the children back!"
"You have the nerve to say such things about the things Wang Wenzhi did that were sorry for Yan Zhen! You are so interesting!"
"What do you care about me! What I mean is that I don't care! I just don't care! Get out of here right now!"
"Go! Go! Get out!"
"How can you talk to the village chief like this?" Wang Yaozong stopped his wife, "If you make trouble again, I will beat you!"
"Hit me, beat me, beat me to death, I won't survive!"
The third daughter-in-law and the eldest daughter-in-law started to behave violently and started to hit people with big brooms. Wang Yaozong and Wang Yaozu scolded their respective wives in real and fake ways. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that this was an act, just to show them off. .
It was very smoky for a while.
A crowd of people ran out in chaos.
The village chief patted the dust on himself and said, "This family is really nothing!"
As soon as she went out, Wenjuan burst into tears. She didn't know what to do in the future. She didn't even have a place to stay.
"Brother, brother, how are we going to fix it! How are we going to fix it from now on!"
Wen Bin hugged Wen Juan, but he was secretly happy that going anywhere would be better than staying at the uncle and third uncle's house.
In front of outsiders, Yan Zhen had to show off, and she said, "It's okay, it's okay."
"Let's go to your grandma's house tomorrow and see if your grandma can take you in."
Liu Dahua's mother is still alive, but she is getting older, and now she has started to put her son in a rotation.
Each family takes turns taking care of food and drink for a month. This is the way of providing care for the elderly in rural areas.
Even if Wenjuan and Wenbin stay with their grandmother, they still have to look at the faces of their uncles and aunts.
It might be better to stay in the Wang family, but it's better than going nowhere.
The old lady feels sorry for her daughter, and naturally she also feels sorry for the children left behind by her daughter.
"How can there be such a family! You don't care about your own nephews and nieces at all?" The village chief and secretary turned to look at the Wang family's door and snorted, "There is no good person in the old Wang family!"
"It's understandable that they don't want to take care of it. After all, it's not easy for anyone these days. I can't even take care of my own food and drink. How can I still have the ability to take care of others? I can't say that they are selfish." Yan Zhen felt helpless towards Wen Bin and Wen Juan. He smiled and said, "But it's okay. We can try it at your grandma's house again."
Wenjuan's eyes were red and she was crying. She was holding her sleeves with both hands, feeling very uneasy.
She felt like she was being picked on and pushed around like a cat or dog, and no one wanted her. She didn't know what dignity was, she just felt embarrassed to be like this. It turned out that no one except her closest relatives liked her.
Wenjuan suddenly understood something at this moment. She really had no home, and no one would stand up for her anymore.
Wen Bin showed no expression. At first, he was afraid that his uncle or uncle would leave him, but he soon saw the reality clearly.
They won't. He knew what kind of people they were.
As the village chief said, there is no good person in the Wang family, how could they do such a good thing? So in the end they must belong to grandma's house.
Wen Bin lowered his head and said aggrievedly: "When can my sister and I go to school?"
This sentence made the village chief and secretary feel uncomfortable.
They remembered that Wen Bin's academic performance was very good. Although the old Wang family were not human beings, the juniors were all smart and studied very well.
The village chief became angry when he mentioned this. His children came last in the exams every year. He had done so many things for the village, so he was considered a respectable person, but what was the result? My own children embarrass me all day long.
He liked children who studied well. The village chief touched Wen Bin's head lovingly and said, "Don't worry, uncle will let you go to school as soon as possible."
"Study hard when you get to school. Your children will learn well. Maybe you will be able to get into college in the future."
After saying that, the village chief sighed, he was really helpless. Even if Wen Bin studies well, what will happen in the future? Who can provide him with study? Many people have foreseen the fate of Wen Bin and Wen Juan.
They will most likely be forced to drop out of school. Wen Bin will go out to work early. When Wen Juan gets older, she will visit other families and exchange gifts for them.
It was dark after they came out of Wang's house, so Yan Zhen and the others could only stay at the village chief's house for one night, and then go to Liu Dahua's parents' house the next day.
At night, Yan Zhen slept in the same room as the village chief's wife. She pestered Yan Zhen to tell her what happened, the story about her and Gu Weichen, and about Wang Wenzhi and Liu Dahua. She listened with great interest, and finally sighed, "The outside world is really... Wonderful."
She has been out and knows what the provincial capital is like, which is a thousand times better than many people in the village. Some people have never been out in their lives and have never seen the outside world. The village chief's wife thinks that she is in the provincial capital. I felt really good during the few days I stayed there.
She is old and has a family, otherwise she would have to go out and make a living.
Yanzhen was lying on the hot bed and heard the longing in the words of the village chief's wife, so he said: "Whenever you want to go to the provincial capital, just come to me. There are people I know in the city. What are you afraid of?"
The village chief's wife laughed and leaned up from the kang to look at Yan Zhen, "That's what you said! I'll come and play with you when I'm free from now on!"
Yan Zhen nodded and said, "Okay!"
The two looked at each other and smiled.
If possible, Yan Zhen would like to take the village chief's wife to the city and develop in the city, but after all, she has a family, and the whole family cannot be ignored.
The two of them were about to lie down when they suddenly heard a panicked cry from outside, "It's not good!"
