Chapter 12 Apply eye drops
Although he was confused, the village chief still arranged for people to help carry the wild boar. It would be a bastard not to take advantage of a good opportunity. He also wanted to eat meat. What's more, his grandson was frightened, and he would be sorry for not eating the meat of the animal.
As they were about to carry the wild boar down the mountain, Old Lady Zeng ran to the wild boar, blocked their way, and yelled:
"Don't lift my wild boar. This is my wild boar. You shameless people, don't touch my things."
"Go away! This wild boar was clearly killed by the third son of the Shen family. How can it be yours? Old lady Zeng, have some shame!"
"Old lady Yu, this is none of your business. You are just talking nonsense and meddling in other people's business. These two wild boars are coming for me. They are my wild boars. No one can steal my wild boars."
"The one that came after you is yours? You shameless old thing, if it wasn't for Old Third Shen who beat the wild boar to death with one punch, you would have been trampled into a pulp by the wild boar and would not have survived. Old Third Shen saved you, and you still have the nerve to come and ask for Old Third Shen's wild boar. Your face is thicker than a city wall. I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen anyone as shameless as you."
"Bah, what a jerk! Someone saved your life, and not only did you not thank him, you even stole his things. You are simply not a human being."
"That's right, there are so many of us watching, and you, an old bitch, shamelessly come to steal the wild boar. Village chief, how can such a shameless person live in our village? Drive her away, don't embarrass our Shenjia Village."
Since their interests were threatened, the villagers were not so easy to deal with. The powerful old women came forward to accuse Zeng Pozi.
Shen Mingzhu's eyes widened as she looked at the old women who were each more aggressive than the other. These old women were so good at scolding people!
Shen Mingzhu secretly gave her father a thumbs up. Her father was really awesome. He bribed the entire village with just a wild boar.
Seeing that it was almost done, Old Lady Shen said:
"Old lady Zeng, I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen someone as shameless as you. If you want my wild boar, it depends on whether I agree or not. What? Does your face still hurt? Do you want me to slap you twice more?"
Shen Mingzhu's house was very lively. The butcher was shaving the pig's hair. Adults and children from the village came to watch the fun. Some people helped to boil water, and some people helped to turn the pig over.
Especially the elderly, women and children, they couldn't help swallowing their saliva when looking at the fat wild boar meat.
In this age when people can't even get enough food, even farmers rarely raise pigs. Raising pigs requires feeding them grain. Who has so much grain to raise pigs?
It's worth it even if I get scared because I can eat meat for free today.
The village chief organized people to distribute a piece of meat to each family, even the pig's offal was distributed, but nothing was given to old lady Zeng. She was so angry that she cursed and swore. The village chief slammed the table and said angrily:
"Damn it, old lady Zeng, Shen Ruhai saved the lives of three people in your family, but not only did you not thank him, you even cursed his entire family. You can give his wild boar meat to whoever you want."
"Old lady Zeng, please stop throwing tantrums in front of me. If you do, I will drive your entire family out of the village. Do you think I can do it?"
The village chief had long wanted to drive Mrs. Zeng's family out of the village. Mrs. Zeng and her son were a scourge to the village. If it weren't for the pity for her daughter-in-law and two granddaughters, he would have driven them away long ago.
Shen Mingzhu looked at all this and snorted in her heart.
She had seen many people in her previous life, but she had never seen a beast as cruel, selfish, vicious, and dishonest as Old Lady Zeng. She killed her husband, tortured her daughter-in-law, and sold her daughter as a prostitute. Old Lady Zeng was simply not a human being.
If grandma wasn't so strong in fighting and didn't need her help, she would have kicked the old witch out of the yard with one kick. She really made her yard dirty.
The old woman looked pitiful, but there must be something hateful about pitiful people. The truly pitiful ones were her daughter-in-law and two granddaughters who were tortured by her. What an old bitch, she pretended to be pitiful when she couldn't get away with it. Why was she pretending to be pitiful?
"Mingzhu, ignore that old woman. Let's have a delicious meal tonight." Old Mrs. Shen winked at Shen Mingzhu and said with a smile.
The third child is worthy of being her biological son. He is very smart. He used only a wild boar to change the villagers' impression of the third family.
Old Mrs. Shen and Shen Mingzhu both knew that in ancient times, family and neighborhood relationships were particularly important.
Not to mention here, even in modern times, rumors can kill people, and it is even worse here.
What the village chief said to threaten Mrs. Zeng just now was true. Here, the village chief and the clan leader have the right to expel people from the village and the family, and also have the right to lynch people.
In ancient times, if you had a bad reputation, you would be expelled from your family and village, and you would have no way to survive. Scholars who had a bad reputation were also not allowed to take the imperial examinations.
If Shen Laosan wants to take part in the imperial examination, he must change his bad reputation and make the villagers have a good impression of him.
For this reason, even though Shen Laosan gave up a wild boar weighing more than 300 kilograms, Old Man Shen not only said nothing, but also supported Shen Laosan.
As for Shen Lao Er's family, it is a very happy thing for them to be able to eat meat with Shen Lao San.
Shen Lao San could give the prey he hunted to whoever he wanted. They had no objection, and they could not have any objection.
In the evening, the whole family ate braised pork and drank bone soup, and they all felt it was delicious.
Shen Laoer's family was as happy as children. Shen Mingshan took a piece of braised pork and sighed:
"Thanks to my uncle, I can eat as much meat as I want today. It would be even better if my uncle and his family were at home."
Old Lady Shen's face darkened. "Eating meat can't stop you from eating. Just eat meat. Why criticize them? Do they lack meat in town? When will they bring back a piece of meat for an old woman like me to eat?"
Shen Mingshan realized that he had said the wrong thing, so he quickly shut up and buried his head in eating.
Shen Laoer and his wife looked at each other. They didn't expect that the mother would react so strongly to the eldest brother's family. Didn't the mother save all the good things for the eldest brother in the past, so that the eldest brother's family could take them to the town to eat?
When did I change?
Old Lady Shen saw through their thoughts and said earnestly:
"I didn't think there was anything wrong with taking care of the eldest brother's family before. After all, they have two educated people in their family, and they are the hope of our family. But after this incident, I figured out a lot of things. Second and third brothers, you are all my children. Why should the family save money to support the eldest brother?"
She sighed and continued:
"This time, the third brother and I almost died. Why? It was because Zhuzhu wanted to eat meat. The third brother, that rascal, scared Zhuzhu and asked her to go fishing in the river. He would buy her meat if she caught fish. Zhuzhu fell into the river. Su and I went to save Zhuzhu, and the third brother went to save me. Is this why the whole family was drowned?"
As Old Lady Shen was talking, she wiped away her nonexistent tears and said to Old Man Shen:
"Old man! I have been married to you for so many years, and everyone says that I am a scholar's wife and I am very blessed. However, whether I live a good life or not, only I know. What kind of life do I live in order to support a few scholars?"
"Wow, in the past, I lived frugally for you to pass the imperial examination, and I didn't even want to eat dry rice... Then I had my eldest son, and he was studying... My two eldest grandsons were studying, how many times did I eat meat in a year?"
"We have supported them for so many years, but they haven't even passed the imperial examination. Every time they come home, they just take money. Have they ever thought about whether we two old guys have food to eat or whether we are in good health?"
The more Mrs. Shen spoke, the sadder she became. Perhaps with some residual emotion, her tears flowed uncontrollably.
Shen Mingzhu looked at her grandmother and didn't find it strange. Her grandmother was just acting again.
Not to mention, although her grandmother is from the mountains, her IQ and acting skills are simply top-notch.
In the past, people on the Internet said that there were Phoenix men and evil mothers-in-law in the countryside. Indeed, in the past, including this dynasty, there were Phoenix men, and there were also many evil mothers-in-law who were uneducated and fierce, and tortured their daughters-in-law.
But her grandmother is not like that. After all, she is a village doctor who has graduated from a technical secondary school. Although she is not unreasonable, she is also nice to her wife. Most importantly, she is a good actress.
