Years: Return to the Leisurely Fishing Village

Chapter 60: I can’t stand being bullied!
The news that Tan Shaoyang choked someone still spread. Even though there had not been a fierce quarrel, the three people were as silent as quails after being treated by him, which still made the villagers wary.

When the news got out, it was described in a very vivid way.

Tan Shaoyang not only became more capable, but also more eloquent. He sought justice for Tan's father. He did not yell or curse fiercely, but his words made people feel ashamed.

From now on, the Tan family will be a family that is difficult to offend.

When Tan's mother found out what happened, she ran to the three families' doors and yelled, "What kind of people are you? You got cheated, and you blame it on me, Old Tan."

"You think I, Old Tan, am a good guy who's easy to bully!"

"When the old stubborn man wanted to buy a boat, my old Tan tried to stop him. But I thought he was jealous and stopped trying to persuade him. He blamed me for being cheated."

"You guys are taking all the good things, and I, Old Tan, have to bear all the bad things. I, Old Tan, haven't gained anything from it, so it's none of his business!"

"If anyone dares to say such nonsense, wait for me, Old Tan, and my two sons to come back and seek justice. Let's see if there is any such statement."

Mother Tan was extremely angry and spoke harshly. She was not like Father Tan who kept silent. When she was bullied, she would seek justice on her own. Her fierce shouting and cursing could be heard clearly.

You have to know that if you keep silent when being slandered, you may be bullied even more in the future!
You have to show your attitude.

It is better to be fierce enough that people dare not offend you than to be weak and incompetent and be bullied by others.

As a result, no one from the three families dared to come out.

I was not in the right to begin with, and it was even more wrong to come out and argue with others. Who told my man not to know people well and get cheated? I could only hide at home in shame.

After yelling and cursing, Tan's mother made her attitude clear and went home. She believed that if you are right, you can go anywhere in the world. You can't let anyone bully you anyway.

Tan Shaoyang knew the resolute style of Tan's mother, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Mom, don't go there alone in the future, what if the three families come to argue with you angrily!"

"There are three of them and you are alone. You will obviously be at a disadvantage if we fight."

Tan's mother waved her hands, looking unconcerned, "I'm not the kind of person who would do anything reckless. The men in those three families are all stingy and mean, and they can't stand seeing others making money."

"Men are powerful, but women are weak. Even if I scold them to death, they won't dare to come out!"

"A dragon gives birth to a dragon, a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix, and a mouse gives birth to a son who can dig holes. The sons they give birth to are only capable of bullying others at home. Do they dare to come out and fight?"

"I have several sons, who should I be afraid of?"

"It doesn't make sense for us to endure when people are bullying us. We have to show our attitude. Otherwise, everyone will want to piss on our Tan family."

"They only show off because your dad isn't home! If they were all home, they wouldn't dare to say a word."

Tan Shaoyang: “…”

This matter is not over yet.

Because of this incident, someone jumped into the sea.

It has been a long time, and I vaguely remember that this happened, but I don’t know which family it belonged to.

Tan's mother had just cursed someone, and then the news of jumping into the sea came out. I'm afraid that the responsibility will be put on the Tan family again.

The Tan family is so innocent. Normally, since Lao Tie was the one who cheated people out of their money, the blame should be put on Lao Tie, and it has nothing to do with the Tan family.

But the Tan family had just finished arguing with someone, and the whole village knew about it, and that’s how they were implicated and brought about this unexpected disaster.

The onlookers didn't care whether they were cheated by their old friend or not. They just knew that they had just had an argument with the Tan family. This kind of thing couldn't be allowed to happen. Tan Shaoyang had to keep an eye on it. Whoever should take responsibility should take it, and don't try to blame the Tan family.

100 yuan is a lot of money for people at that time. Being cheated overnight, anyone who can't think flexibly will easily fall into a dead end.

After watching for two days, I really saw the man walking towards the beach in a daze.

The drunk Old Zhong staggered towards the beach. He was in a bad mood because he had just been cheated of his money. After getting drunk, he went to the beach crying.

Tan Shaoyang sighed, and even though he didn't want to meddle in other people's business, he still went over.

He had no control over whether the other party was seeking death or not. He was not a kind-hearted person who liked to meddle in other people's affairs. It was just that the Tan family was at the center of the storm.

We must not let anyone get into trouble at this juncture, otherwise rumors will easily implicate the Tan family.

This is how it is in the village. When there is a conflict, the other party thinks it is their fault.

Tan Shaoyang held back the impulsive person.

"Don't think you can commit suicide after drinking two cups of horse urine. You have already blamed my family for this matter. You can't die at this critical moment."

Lao Zhong: “…” He feels so depressed, can’t he even die?
"My son blames me, saying that I am greedy and that my money was taken away by someone. I could have used it to marry him off, but now the family he was dating has fallen out and they don't want to marry their daughter to me."

"I feel so bad, and I feel like life is so painful, why are you stopping me?"

"I was drunk and drowned in the water. I didn't feel anything. It would be better if I died completely, so that my whole family wouldn't be upset."

Tan Shaoyang was speechless when he saw this scene and took him directly to the village chief's house. The village chief wanted to be a hands-off boss, which was impossible.

I have reminded you about this before, and now that there are hidden dangers, he should take the responsibility, and he should also be the one to keep an eye on it, whether it is a life or death situation.

I'm so busy, how can I have the time to meddle in other people's business!

"Come back with me first, think it over after you wake up, and then make a decision."

"Look at this sea water. It will swallow you up, but you won't even be able to find your body."

Then he took the man to the village chief's house.

The village chief looked at Tan Shaoyang carrying Old Zhong over, reeking of alcohol, and asked in confusion, "What are you doing? He's drunk, why are you bringing him to my house instead of taking him home?"

Tan Shaoyang put the man on the chair, took a deep breath, and then he started to flatter him. "I happened to see him trying to commit suicide at the beach. I don't know how to persuade people, so I thought of bringing him here so that you can persuade him."

"My friend has cheated them out of their money. If someone dies, it will not be good for your management."

"My family has suffered an unexpected disaster and has been blamed. It is not appropriate for me to get involved. After thinking it over, it is most appropriate to let you solve it."

The village chief's eyebrows twitched. "Did Lao Tie really cheat them out of their money? He's just a scoundrel wandering around the beach. Don't these people have brains?"

"I've eaten more salt than my friend has eaten rice, and yet I still get cheated. Have all these years been wasted?"

The village chief is so angry that he has to take care of all these people.

"Tell me who they are. I'll call them over to talk. What's wrong with your brain? You actually let yourself be fooled by a young guy."
