Rebirth 1978, Wife, I won't go back to the city

"Tell me, how much money have you lost in the past few days?"

Jiang Guoli asked in a gloomy tone.

Jiang Shu replied in a weak tone:

"About twenty bucks. I'm unlucky..."

“Well, you little bastard, you have no ability or ability to make money, but you dare to lose so much money when you lose it!”

Hearing this, Jiang Guoli became angry again and made a move to stand up.

Jiang Shu was so scared that he stepped back repeatedly. At this time, Zhang Cuiyun, Li Jingshen and Jiang Hai hurriedly persuaded Jiang Guoli.

It took several people a long time to calm Jiang Guoli down.

"You kid, if you dare to play cards again, I'll break your hands. Also, for the next month, after you finish your chores, stay indoors. If you dare to step out, I'll break your legs!"

"Get out of here right now!"

Jiang Guoli said cursingly.

Hearing this, Jiang Shu felt as if he had been pardoned and turned around to run out.

Seeing Jiang Shu was about to leave, Li Jingshen suddenly thought of something and shouted:

"Jiang Shu, wait a moment."

"Brother-in-law, do you have anything else to say?"

Jiang Shu turned his head and asked with some confusion.

Li Jingshen nodded, and then said:

"I want to ask, are you familiar with Wang Liu'er and Chen San'er?"

"No, we only met before when we were repairing the levee in the village, but we barely exchanged a few words."

Jiang Shu replied.

Hearing this, Li Jingshen couldn't help but frowned and muttered:

"Since you're not familiar with each other, then they suddenly invited you, which must be to trick you. There seems to be some conspiracy here."

"What kind of conspiracy could there be? It's just those two bastards. I heard our family made money from selling fish."

Zhang Cuiyun said without hesitation.

"Old woman, please don't speak first. Let Jing Shen finish what he has to say."

Jiang Guoli spoke up and gave Li Jingshen another encouraging look.

Li Jingshen showed a thoughtful look on his face, and then he said:

"It's obvious that Wang Liu'er and Chen San are here for Jiang Shu. Our family has made some money recently, but compared to the nearby villages, we're not considered a particularly wealthy family."

"That makes sense, go on."

Jiang Guoli said encouragingly.

Li Jingshen looked at Jiang Guoli and said:

"I suspect they're deliberately targeting Jiang Shu and our Jiang family. Could you help me think about whether Wang Liu'er and Chen San have any connection with Zhou Guohua from our village?"

Hearing this, Jiang Guoli's face suddenly changed.

He looked at Li Jingshen deeply, and then said:

"Depth of Field, you guessed it right. Those two bastards must have wanted to deliberately pit our Jiang family. I remember that before liberation, that Wang Liu'er was the godson of that old bastard Zhou Fugui."

"A few days ago, you broke Zhou Guohua's leg. That bastard Zhou Fugui asked his godson Wang Liuer to avenge his own son!"

"He wants Jiang Shu to become addicted to drugs and then ruin our Jiang family!"

Hearing this, everyone's expression changed.

"Old man, let's call the police."

After learning about Wang Liuer's sinister intentions, Zhang Cuiyun said with some fear.

Jiang Guoli shook his head and said:

"Catch the thief and the stolen goods, catch the adulterer and the couple, and now they are not at the gambling game, how can we call the police?"

"Besides, there are gambling and card games happening from time to time in several villages nearby. If we report this to the police, we will definitely offend a lot of people and be looked down upon."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the Jiang family's faces darkened.

Li Jingshen couldn't help but secretly shook his head. The countryside was actually like this, a relatively closed environment. Apart from the law, what mattered here was more about human relationships and conventional rules.

Just like the trafficking of women that happened decades later.

Some bachelors in the village married these trafficked women. Even though everyone in the village knew about it, no one chose to call the police.

Sometimes I think that these customary rules in the village are really suffocating.

"What should we do then? Are we just going to suffer this loss in silence?"

Jiang Hai asked somewhat unconvinced.

Jiang Shu glanced at Li Jingshen gratefully, then looked at his father and said:

"Dad, I really didn't expect this. If it weren't for the depth of field, I really wouldn't have thought that they were deliberately tricking me. Our family can't just swallow this anger."

"You have a pig brain, and you still have the nerve to say such things now. In the future, when you do things, stay calm and think carefully about the cause and effect!"

Jiang Guoli scolded him angrily, and then said sullenly:

"Alright, you'll behave yourself from now on. As for revenge, we'll find opportunities later. Get out of here! I get mad just by looking at you!"

Jiang Guoli said cursingly.

Jiang Shu nodded helplessly, turned around, covered his butt, and limped back to his room.

"Alright, everyone, go away. Also, be careful. We broke Zhou Guohua's leg this time, and we've created a grudge with the Zhou family. From now on, you must be wary of the Zhou family, as well as Wang Liuer's family in Hongyun Village."

Jiang Guoli said this in a warning manner, and then waved to everyone with some fatigue.

Everyone nodded and then dispersed.

In the next few days, Jiang Shu was strictly restricted from leaving the house except for fishing.

Although Wang Liu'er and Chen San went to look for him several times, they were scolded away by Zhang Cuiyun.

Apart from that, everything is peaceful.

Li Jingshen would ride his bike to town from time to time to discuss construction matters with Zhao Qiang.

He spends the rest of his time at home, surrounded by his wife and children, and lives a very comfortable life.

The only thing that made him feel a little dissatisfied was that the house was too small.

He ate and drank well every day, which made him very hot-tempered. When he saw his petite and beautiful wife, he wanted to pounce on her.

It’s a pity that Tuantuan is often at home, which is very inconvenient, so Li Jingshen can only find time to do so.

However, with the man's nourishment, Jiang Xue's complexion became more moisturized, her eyes were watery, and she looked more charming.

Li Jingshen secretly calculated that he had earned a lot of money so far, and when the weather warmed up and the ground thawed, he would prepare to build a new house.

By then, Tuantuan will have his own room, and the couple will be able to have more fun.

It was a sunny day, and Li Jingshen was sitting outside leisurely translating a manuscript.

Wang Liuer, who had been running into obstacles at the Jiang family, suddenly pushed open the gate of his house.

With a flattering smile on his face, he shouted at Li Jingshen:

"Brother Jingshen, hello."

Li Jingshen frowned slightly when he saw him coming, and asked in a lukewarm tone:

"Wang Liu'er, why are you here? What do you want to talk to me about?"
