Chapter 4 You have to make the decision for me
Xie Zhiyi walked up to Xie Jiaojiao.
Xie Jiaojiao patted his head, turned around and said, "I invited the village chief here."
When she said this, the villagers who were watching the fun outside the door were dumbfounded. Isn't Xie Jiaojiao stupid?
When did she get better from this madness?
You guys don’t even know!
"You're fine, why did you call the village chief and others?" Xie Zhishu and Xie Zhili thought Xie Jiaojiao was making a fuss out of nothing.
Xie Jiaojiao glanced at them and said, "There's a thief in my house. What's wrong with me asking the village chief to come and help me with justice?"
A village elder called him, which made Chen Shouren very happy.
Chen Shouren waved his hand and said, "What's the big deal? I'm just a village chief. Just call me village chief. I heard from your brother on the way that you've recovered from your illness. I never thought it was really cured."
Xie Jiaojiao replied: "I hit my head on the day my father passed away, and I don't know how it got better."
As Xie Jiaojiao spoke, she brought a stool and asked Chen Shouren to sit down.
The villagers listened and thought that Xie Jiaojiao became a fool because she had a fever and her brain was burned out. She bumped her head and unexpectedly her brain got better. They guessed that it was the day when Old Xie died that she got better. Could it be that Old Xie appeared as a spirit?
When everyone recalled it, they were wondering why Xie Jiaojiao didn't do anything stupid during the funeral of Old Xie.
As soon as Chen Shouren sat down, he asked, "What happened?"
Before Xie Jiaojiao could say anything, Chen Hongju immediately said, "It's nothing, it's just a small matter at home."
Chen Shouren frowned: "Did I ask you a question? When is it your turn to answer?"
Chen Hongju's face immediately looked as if she had eaten shit.
Xie Jiaojiao replied at this time: "Village Chief, this is the case. Wu Dashan, the old rogue, broke into my yard in the middle of the night and stole things from our house. We caught him."
"Bullshit! Who would come to your house to steal things?"
Xie Jiaojiao looked at him: "You are not here to steal my things? Then why did you come to my house in the middle of the night?"
"I...I..." Wu Dashan couldn't answer, and he couldn't say that he came to sleep with Xie Jiaojiao.
"Why are you mute?" Chen Shouren saw Wu Dashan hesitating for a long time without saying anything.
Wu Dashan made up his mind. He spent money to buy Xie Jiaojiao's thing. Why should he be afraid?
"I'm here to find Xie Jiaojiao. Her elder brother and his wife sold her to me a few days ago!" After saying that, he took out a document from his arms.
"This is what they wrote to me." He handed it to Chen Shouren.
As soon as these words were spoken, the villagers who were watching the excitement at the door were shocked. It was not as if the Xie family was unable to make ends meet, but they actually started selling people.
Xie Zhishu and Xie Zhili felt a little embarrassed.
Xie Zhishu said, "My father has been ill for more than half a year. All the money in the family has been used up for his medical treatment. I really can't afford to pay for his treatment anymore. That's why I can't sell Jiaojiao to pay for my father's medical treatment."
Xie Zhishu said it very unfairly.
The crowd was talking again:
"So this is ah!"
"This old Xie has indeed been ill for more than half a year."
......
......
Xie Jiaojiao looked at him and thought, wow, he’s quite good at acting.
Xie Zhiyi stood up at this time: "Brother, you are lying. You sold my sister and my parents didn't know. You even said you sold her for my father's medical treatment. I clearly saw you and my second brother buy a lot of things in town! You didn't give any of them away!"
Xie Zhiyi was still a little kid, and he was the worst at lying. As soon as he said this, the crowd started talking again, and even the way they looked at the two brothers became a little strange.
"What do you know, little kid? Those were clearly things that were moved from your sister-in-law's family home."
Xie Jiaojiao sneered: "Sister-in-law's family? If I remember correctly, my two sisters-in-law's families were so poor that they could barely make ends meet. They even borrowed a load of grain from us during the autumn harvest! Can they still subsidize our family?"
At this time, a neighbor also spoke up: "I said I saw the eldest brother of the Xie family in town a few days ago. I thought I was seeing things. I saw them buying cloth and buns in town. I thought they were selling grain to buy things for their family. I never thought they were spending the money from selling their sister."
With the neighbors' testimony, the crowd's discussion became louder and louder.
Xie Zhishu and Xie Zhili blushed.
Chen Shouren also finished reading the document, which indeed stated that Xie Jiaojiao was sold to Wu Dashan as his wife for three taels of silver.
I glanced at Xie Zhishu and Xie Zhili. There has never been a case of selling women in this village!
It really brings shame to the village!
Xie Zhishu and Xie Zhili didn't even dare to look at him.
Sun Ruhua stood up at this time: "Village Chief, our Jiaojiao will not be sold. We will return the money to Wu Dashan immediately."
After Sun Ruhua finished speaking, she asked her two sons for the three taels of silver, but the two of them were so shy that they had already spent it.
"No, village chief, I want Xie Jiaojiao from their family!" Wu Dashan said. He had been beaten so many times, and it was not in vain. Wait until he brings her back and see how he tortures her!
Sun Ruhua was anxious: "Can't we just compensate you with money? We won't sell our daughter!"
As Sun Ruhua spoke, she protected Xie Jiaojiao behind her.
Chen Shouren was also in a difficult situation. As long as there was written evidence, it would mean that Xie Jiaojiao had indeed been sold.
"Xie family, here is the written document, then your Xie Jiaojiao..."
Sun Ruhua shook her head and knelt down: "Village Chief, please, I beg you!"
The village chief stood up hurriedly: "Hey, Mr. Xie, get up quickly, what are you doing!"
Xie Jiaojiao hurriedly pulled her mother up and glanced at her two brothers and sisters-in-law, all of whom seemed unmoved.
"Mom, please get up quickly, please get up quickly."
"Jiaojiao! What should I do?" After Sun Ruhua finished speaking, she looked at her two unfilial sons and said, "You, it's all your fault. What sin did I commit to give birth to two evil creatures like you! Old Xie, take me away too. I don't want to live anymore."
The neighbors in the village all looked at this with regret. If Xie Jiaojiao was a fool and married Wu Dashan, it would not be a big deal. But now Xie Jiaojiao is fine. Isn't this like a beautiful flower stuck in cow dung?
The two brothers of the Xie family did not feel guilty for making Sun Ruhua so sad, but instead felt that Sun Ruhua was a little shameful.
"Mom, so many people are watching!"
"Are you ashamed now? Why didn't you feel ashamed when you sold your sister to Wu Dashan?"
Several people were speechless again.
Xie Jiaojiao held Sun Ruhua and said, "Mom, don't worry. Don't worry. If they want to sell their daughter, it won't be their turn. Since they have written the agreement, they can sell their own daughter."
Chen Hongju was listening and immediately stopped talking: "Xie Jiaojiao, what are you talking about?"
Xie Jiaojiao rolled her eyes at her: "My father was still alive when you sold me! Since my father is still alive, is it your turn to sell me?"
After Xie Jiaojiao finished speaking, she knelt down in front of the village chief Chen Shouren and said, "Mr. Village Chief, when Xie Zhishu, Chen Hongju and Wu Dashan wrote this document, my father was still alive. My parents were still alive. As for marriage, it is the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words. How can he, as the eldest brother and sister-in-law, decide my marriage? Therefore, this document is invalid."
The villagers who were watching the fun all nodded. Old Lady Wang from next door, who was usually on good terms with Sun Ruhua, said, "That's right. This is totally unethical! How can a sister-in-law interfere in the marriage of her younger sister-in-law?"
When she said this, many people in the crowd agreed.
Chen Shouren listened and felt that there was some truth in it.
Wu Dashan was unwilling at this time, and pulled Chen Shouren: "Village Chief, you have to make the decision for me on this matter. I spent three taels of silver."
Chen Shouren pulled his arm away from his hand in disgust.
Xie Zhishu also spoke up at this time: "Village Chief, my father was so sick that he couldn't get out of bed. As the eldest son in the family, can't I make the decision?"
Chen Hongju also echoed the sentiment with grievance.
Sun Ruhua was furious when she heard this: "I'm not dead yet! Even if your father is really gone now, I'm the one who makes the decision!"
"Mother, when you marry, you must obey your husband. When your husband dies, you must obey your son! This is a truth that everyone knows."
Sun Ruhua's chest heaved with anger. This was truly her great son!
Xie Jiaojiao patted her chest and said, "Mom, don't be angry."
After saying that, Xie Jiaojiao faced Wu Dashan again.
"It would be better if you didn't come. You're talking about this now. I also have something to settle with you."
