Chapter 86 Dashan Village Has a Bad Reputation
After Uncle Zhang Wu and Aunt Zhang Wu left, Yan Yiyi couldn't help but ask, "Why do you suddenly want to give Uncle Zhang Wu some advice?"
Xin Ye smiled wickedly: "When Uncle Zhang and his cousin brought their son to the village, they bullied me because I was a cripple. Although I retaliated against them secretly, I still felt unhappy.
Moreover, in order to prevent Uncle Zhang Wu from supporting my father and me, Old Lady Zhang often came to our house to make trouble and said countless nasty things.
My father tolerated me many times because she was my fifth uncle's biological mother, and turned a blind eye to my small revenge on the Zhang family, but I still held a grudge.
Now there is such an opportunity for them to fight each other, why not do it? "
Yan Yiyi didn't expect him to hold a grudge so much. Xiao Xiao was surprised and asked, "Won't you have a lot of ways to deal with them when you grow up?"
Xin Ye glanced at her and said, "How do you know I don't have it?
However, during the year that Dad was ill, I almost forgot about the fact that they had to have their legs broken for a few months. It was a relief for them."
Tsk, she's being tsundere, so cute~
Yan Yiyi couldn't help but laugh.
Uncle Zhang did not discuss the matter with his brothers in person, but instead went through several detours to pass the news to people who were on good terms with them, and then they leaked it out.
Seeing his brother, sister-in-law and nephews heading to Ma Village to settle accounts, he hid in the crowd and watched silently, keeping his merits and fame to himself.
When Old Lady Zhang learned that her sons had gone to Majia Village to cause trouble and beat their nephews, nieces, and grandchildren, she became furious and came back to beat and scold her sons and daughters-in-law.
But they just endured her little bit of strength, and they were so used to her swearing that their ears were callused from hearing it that they didn't take it seriously at all.
The next day, they gathered together again and went to Majia Village to beat the people up again. Old Lady Zhang didn't expect that they would dare to do this. She was furious and beat and scolded them again.
On the third day, the Zhang brothers and their sisters-in-law went to the Ma family and fought with others again.
This time, Old Lady Zhang didn't dare to make a fuss anymore, for fear that they would go to Majia Village and beat people up because of her angry words.
She hurriedly took the silver to visit her younger brother and nephews and grandchildren. Well, the Zhang brothers and sisters-in-law went to the Ma family and fought with people. They also took back the silver and divided it equally among the families.
Old Mrs. Zhang was so angry that she was about to vomit blood. She never dared to act like a demon again, nor did she dare to starve them anymore. Everyone in the Zhang family had enough to eat and lived a happy life. She even forgot about giving her son to her younger brother for adoption.
Other people in the mountain village who were bullied by their parents were inspired and followed suit. If their family favored one son, they would beat that brother.
The wife in the family likes to give money to her parents' family, so she brings her brothers to the house to smash things and take back the money that was given back in previous years.
But those who are weak and unable to stand on their own can only look on with envy at others, but a seed has already been planted in their hearts, waiting for the day when it will suddenly explode.
In short, those people in the mountain village who loved to act like demons by relying on their elders suddenly restrained themselves and did not dare to make trouble, for fear of causing trouble to their mother's family.
At the same time, the news that the people of Dashan Village loved to fight spread to several nearby villages. The village chief felt a headache. Why did he suddenly get such a bad reputation?
Three months later, Aunt Zhang was sent to Aunt Qi's house by Uncle Zhang Wu with a big pregnant belly. Many villagers were shocked when they saw her belly.
"Mr. Zhang Wu, are you... pregnant?" A woman in her thirties looked at her belly in shock, thinking about how she had given birth to five girls in a row. She wanted to have another boy, but after several years, there was still no movement.
"Do you have any secret recipe? Can you tell me?"
Aunt Zhang Wu smiled and said, "I don't know either. It's just that Aye and the others went to the county town to buy medicine for Brother Li. I asked them to help buy some medicine for the body. After taking it for a while, I got pregnant.
I guess I saw a quack doctor back then. I only needed a few medicines to regulate my body, but it delayed me for so many years. "As she spoke, she lowered her eyes to look at Weilong's belly, her eyes full of maternal love.
Uncle Zhang Wu added: "The medicine is quite expensive. After all, it is a tonic. We spent more than ten taels of silver, almost emptying our family's savings. However, it was worth it to get this child."
When the woman heard this, she didn't dare to ask any more questions. Their family had less than ten taels of silver in total, and their symptoms might not be the same, so it was impossible for them to be cured with just a few doses of medicine.
But she still didn't give up and asked one more question: "What's the name of that pharmacy?"
"Zhang's Pharmacy, I heard that the quality of their medicine is better than other pharmacies, so the price is more expensive."
Soon, the news that Aunt Zhang Wu was pregnant with a pearl spread throughout the entire mountain village. What also spread was that Aunt Zhang Wu was treated badly by a quack doctor, which resulted in the family having to spend all their savings to cure her illness.
Look at her round belly, she will definitely give birth to a money-losing baby.
When the Zhang family heard the news, everyone had different thoughts, but they were all glad that they did not give their son away for adoption. The fifth son's family had nothing valuable except the dilapidated mud and thatched house. If he had been adopted away, wouldn't that ruin the child's life?
Xin Ye and his friends were not worried at all that the villagers would run to Zhang's pharmacy to inquire about the news. They did buy medicine at Zhang's pharmacy, but the prescription was not written by the doctor in their shop.
With Yan Yiyi in charge at home, how many people dare to cause trouble at their house head-on?
Another question is, even if they met a traveling doctor who took Aunt Zhang's pulse and prescribed the right medicine, would they dare to try her prescription?
At this time, they were checking the growth of sweet potatoes in the sweet potato field. After confirming that they could be dug, the two decided to go to the county tomorrow to chat with their two cousins.
Unsure about the sweet potato situation and considering the shortage of manpower, the magistrate specifically named the yamen runners Wu and Wang to go to Dashan Village with him. Both of them had eaten sweet potatoes, so they were more suitable than other yamen runners.
The county magistrate saw that it was getting late today and thought that he might not be able to dig all the sweet potatoes today, so he decided to go there tomorrow. Taking into account that his two uncles and two older brothers would be at home tomorrow, as well as the people who would come to help tomorrow to eat, Xin Ye went to the vegetable market to buy a lot.
Pork, chicken and fresh fish. In order to ensure the freshness of the fish, Xin Ye bought all the wooden barrels from others.
When the Li family of three was still having breakfast, there was a knock on the door. Father Li got up to open the door and found that it was the magistrate, his legal advisor, and two yamen runners. He quickly invited them in.
Knowing that they had already had breakfast, the three of them hurried to eat breakfast.
Afterwards, Yan Yiyi and Xin Ye took the county magistrate and others to the sweet potato field with tools, while Father Li went to get people to help.
Uncle Gu and his son, the two brothers of the Wang family and their families, Uncle Zhang and his wife, Aunt Qi and her son, a total of more than a dozen people came to the Li family's field to dig sweet potatoes.
Such a big commotion attracted the curiosity of many people in the village, and they all came over to watch the fun.
Xin Ye and the others knew they couldn't hide it, so they didn't hide it. They just focused on their potato digging business and ignored their gazes and discussions.
