Crossing the Unknown Country

Su He's father said, "Don't worry about it. I'll go talk to the village chief. Otherwise, if such disgusting things keep happening in the future, will our family's reputation still be in jeopardy?"

Su He's father was about to go find the village chief. Wang Xiaohu smiled and said, "Brother Su, I have nothing to do. I'll go over and see what's going on."

Wang Xiaohu couldn't bear to see his own people being wronged, and he also wanted to be on good terms with the Su family in the future, so he had to help.

The two of them went to the village chief's house, but the village chief was not at home because he had been working in the fields. Su He's father then took Wang Xiaohu to the village chief's field.

Su He's father looked at the village chief who was busy working in the fields and shouted loudly: "Uncle Li, please come up here. I want to talk to you about something."

Village Chief Li smiled and said, "Dad Su Feng is coming. I'll be there right away."

He brushed off the dirt on his body and knocked the mud off the soles of his shoes on the rocks at the edge of the field. He walked over and pointed to the shade of the tree next to him. Everyone walked over and sat on the rocks. He took out his pipe and lit it, and asked Su He's father: "What are you doing here? You've come all the way here."

Su He's father told the story of widow Zhang looking for a matchmaker to come to his house, and finally said: "Village head, you are in charge of this matter. This widow Zhang is too unkind. If we didn't see that we were all from the same village, we would have beaten her up at her house."

The village chief was also in a dilemma. This matter was neither big nor small. Even if we found the family, we could just say we were going to propose marriage. If they didn't want to marry, then forget it. It wasn't a big deal. The village chief frowned and couldn't think of a good solution for a while.

Wang Xiaohu said as soon as he saw it: "Village head! This is not right in the first place. The Su family's daughter is still so young, and the family is not short of money, why would they sell their daughter? That widow Zhang just thinks the Su family is easy to bully, would she dare to bully someone else? If you don't care, we will just fight them."

Village chief Li thought this person was unfamiliar, but he had also heard from the boys in the village that the Su family had had guests recently, so this should be the distinguished guest of the Su family.

He asked, "Is this the distinguished guest of the Su family? I am not ignoring it, I am just thinking about how to deal with it. That widow Zhang is also a bad person, otherwise why would she do this."

Wang Xiaohu smiled and said, "We just came to say hello to you, just keep in mind that. If we don't overdo it, just watch."

Village Chief Li is such a smart man that he understood what was said immediately and nodded with a smile: "Okay, you decide! There must be an explanation so that everyone knows what to do."

Wang Xiaohu stood up and patted Su He's father on the shoulder: "Brother Su is gone, let's go home and discuss and see what we can do without going too far."

Su He's father also said goodbye to the village chief and followed Wang Xiaohu home. Wang Xiaohu smiled and said on the way: "There are servants at home! I see some of them are new."

Su He's father said, "Well, I'm busy at home, so I bought three new people."

Wang Xiaohu said to Su He's father, "Let's go! Let's go home and discuss what to do."

They returned home together. When Grandma Su He saw them coming back, she quickly asked, "What did the village chief say?"

Su He's father said: "The village chief told us to do what we want, and he won't care as long as it's not excessive."

Wang Xiaohu said bluntly: "Just have the servants at home take sticks and beat them, smashing all the inexpensive things in the yard. Then tell them that if anyone dares to have such dirty ideas again, his house will be demolished directly."

Su He thought this was a good idea. He would let those fools come back to cause trouble and see who would dare to come again. This would kill the chicken to scare the monkey and solve the troubles in the future.

Grandma Su He and the others thought this method was feasible, and Su He's father called Wang Dashan and the others to grab weapons. Su He's father, Wang Xiaohu, and Wang Cheng took three servants with them, and the group came to the door of Widow Zhang's house in a menacing manner.

When Su He's father arrived, Aunt An shouted, "Widow Zhang, come out, you shameless thing, who are you trying to disgust!..."

Widow Zhang was talking to Matchmaker Zhang at home, listening to Matchmaker Zhang complaining about how she was scolded, and she was trying to calm Matchmaker Zhang down! As the two of them were talking, they started to scold the Su family, saying that they were worthless and looked down on people.

Widow Zhang suddenly heard someone scolding her outside, so she stood up and walked out in a hurry. She wanted to see who dared to scold her, because no one in the village had ever been able to scold her.

Widow Zhang came out cursing, and when she saw that it was the Su family, she was furious. They came to your house to propose marriage, but you didn't want to marry them and you cursed them. How could this be tolerated? Widow Zhang always bullied others. Who dared to scold her? Shili Village had no rivals at the moment.

At this time, many people had gathered at the Zhang family. Their family lived in the village and passed many families along the way. When the Su family came over, some people followed them because they saw the excitement. As soon as the scolding started, the villagers quickly gathered here. People not far away were running here! The children who were curious were calling people to come over to watch the excitement.

Outside the courtyard wall, on the wall, and on the tree branches outside the gate, people were everywhere. Adults, children, and the elderly in the village gathered one after another. It had been a long time since Shili Village had seen such a lively scene. Everyone was busy making money and had no time to quarrel or make trouble.
