In the years of famine, I led a comfortable life with my husband
Chapter 3 Honest Man
After sending the bailiff away, Su Zhizhi stretched. Su Zhonghuai had already slipped away when the bailiff thanked her, probably because he knew she was going to cause trouble for him.
You old man, you have a bad heart and are a coward, right?
That night, Su Peizhi, who had been released, went to his grandmother trembling to complain. Su Zhonghuai also exaggerated what had happened during the day, and the old lady was so angry that she knocked on Su Zhizhi's door early the next morning.
Su Zhizhi, who had no habit of getting up early and was often grumpy, was woken by a knock on the door. She looked outside, filled with anger, and saw a white-haired old lady knocking hard on the door.
Su Zhizhi was stunned. Isn't this the original owner's grandmother who favored boys over girls?
Su Zhizhi believed that she was very respectful to the elderly, but if it was an old man, she would not be polite. So Su Zhizhi got up calmly, washed slowly, and finally got dressed slowly. After almost an hour, she slowly opened the door.
"What's going on so early in the morning?"
The old lady had been waiting outside for quite some time and was already tired. Seeing Su Zhizhi's fearless look, she became even more angry: "You unfilial daughter, you actually made me wait for so long!"
"If you knew you'd have to wait a long time, you should have gone back to sleep. I didn't force you to knock on the door."
Su Zhizhi retorted bluntly, and the old lady choked. She gasped for a long time before calming down and said viciously, "Who allowed you, the third room, to hide all this wine and meat? You are such heartless people. You don't think about sharing the food with the whole family, you only think about yourselves! If you have any sense, bring it all out to me!"
Mrs. Meng went out to sell vegetables early in the morning and hasn't come back yet. Su Zhizhi stood at the door and looked at the old lady like a fool: "You are not ordering me around, are you?"
The old lady was stunned by her question: "Otherwise?"
Su Zhizhi sneered, "Old lady, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you're getting more shameless as you get older! You always say that the family should share the food, but when we slaughtered pigs at home, why did we only get pig's trotters and pig's offal?!"
"For all these years, not to mention before, but even since the exile, the family treasury rarely buys meat. Every time we go back, we only get unwanted fat, which is completely inedible! My mother works day and night to earn money, and you still want her to give half to the treasury, while you don't want a cent from the first and second wives. Are you trying to suck my blood out of me?!"
The old lady opened her mouth, but was speechless. She looked at Su Zhizhi, but ultimately left without saying a word. Su Zhizhi snorted coldly at her back, and a plan came to her mind.
Soon, Su Zhizhi dragged Xie Chengjin out of the house. Seeing them leave, the old lady immediately pulled Su Peizhi along, and the two of them sneaked into the kitchen.
"That little bitch must have hidden some food in the kitchen. Let's look for her."
Su Peizhi nodded repeatedly, and the two of them slipped into the kitchen like thieves. Just as they were about to start rummaging, they heard a sneer.
"Wow, what big mice they are!"
The two were so frightened that they turned around and saw Su Zhizhi and Xie Chengjin standing at the door, looking at them with mocking eyes. Su Zhizhi leaned against the door and said coldly: "What, the old lady also came to our third room's kitchen to steal food one day?"
The old lady blushed when she heard this: "Little bitch, don't talk nonsense! When did I come here to steal things? I just, just..."
Su Zhizhi sneered. She walked forward and looked at the cold pots and stoves in the kitchen. "Don't give me any excuses! Where do you two get the nerve to do this? My mother and I used to do the most work in this family, but you never even gave us a hot meal. What gives you the right to eat our food now? Where's your face?"
"Su Zhizhi, don't push your luck!"
Su Peizhi lost his temper and said, "Who wants to eat your food? I have my second uncle and second aunt who love me. I don't care!"
Su Zhizhi chuckled upon hearing this: "Oh my, you said that, then get out of here! If I find you two stealing food again, I'll show you how I'll deal with you!"
The old lady and Su Peizhi's faces turned red and white, and they could only walk away in shame under the gaze of Su Zhizhi and Xie Chengjin. Xie Chengjin looked at their backs, thought for a moment and said, "Zhizhi, I'm going out to do something. You should be careful at home alone."
Su Zhizhi nodded: "Don't worry."
After the old lady and Su Peizhi were kicked out, Su Peizhi went to the second room. The old lady became more and more angry and felt that Su Zhizhi was an eyesore.
"That girl has a live-in son-in-law who's been acting like a tyrant at home every day. It's better to kick him out as soon as possible."
The old lady rolled her eyes, sneered, and went to the village chief's house in the east with her crutches.
The village chief is a man in his fifties or sixties. He has a son who was born mentally retarded and has not yet married at the age of thirty. He worries at home every day.
The old lady, having grasped this, had taken the initiative to visit the village head's wife. She had originally disdained to exchange pleasantries with such a village woman, but for the sake of her plans, she had to put aside her dignity and smile. After a long while, she finally stated her purpose.
"Big sister, I came to see you today because I have something difficult to talk about."
The old lady sighed and said, "You know I have a big family. Life is hard these days. If there are too many people in the family, there will be no food to eat. Look, we can barely make ends meet lately. I just want to find a good home for my granddaughter and let her get married. Do you have any suitable families around you?"
As soon as these words came out, the village chief's wife's mind became active: "Your granddaughter? The pretty Zhizhi, right? My son Da Niu really likes her. You want to marry your granddaughter off. What are the conditions?"
The old lady smiled and said, "As long as he's honest, that's all that matters. I don't expect anything else."
The village chief's wife slapped her thigh and said, "That's great! My Da Niu is so honest! How about you let her marry my Da Niu? How about we become a family?"
The old lady was overjoyed. Just as she was about to say yes, Xie Chengjin's cold voice came from outside the house: "I'm afraid it's not very convenient."
As he spoke, he opened the curtain and walked into the house. He looked at the old lady whose face suddenly changed, then smiled faintly at the village head's wife: "I'm sorry, Zhizhi and I are already married. I voluntarily marry into the Su family, and we have the marriage certificate as proof."
As soon as she finished speaking, the old lady's face twisted. She looked at the village head's wife, whose face suddenly darkened, and smiled awkwardly, "No, listen to me..."
"what did you say?"
The village head's wife interrupted her rudely: "My temple is small, and there's no room for two Buddha statues. Let's forget about this matter. I advise you, old lady, to do some good deeds and not ruin other people's marriages for no reason."
Xie Chengjin nodded in agreement: "Aunt is right, old lady, let's go, otherwise we will be laughed at."
old lady:……
She had no choice but to get up and leave in shame.
