197 Nature
As they were talking, they returned to the open space in the school and just happened to see a good show.
"Bah! You said it's yours, and I said this piece of hilltop was allocated by the village to my man!"
I saw Aunt He, who had just greeted Zhou Xiaozhou, now standing with her hands on her hips and swearing at someone. The shrew's appearance revealed her true face and true character.
Ge Meili was amazed. She didn't expect that the woman who was so good-tempered just now would become like a completely different person.
"Mrs. Yu, I advise you to be kind. You have already moved the beans home two or three times. That's enough. Do you have to move all the beans in the field to your home? Don't be so greedy. As the saying goes, you can't chew too much. Aren't you afraid of breaking your rotten teeth?"
The daughter-in-law who was arguing with Aunt Yu was also a powerful person, and she was very merciless with her words.
"I have good teeth! You black-hearted little whore, please don't worry about it. If you have time to deal with me, you can go somewhere else and dig up a lot of things. My eldest daughter has already occupied this place and started digging, but you are so sharp-eyed that you just came to occupy it as soon as you saw it. Do you think that all of us in the Yu family are dead? You let you bully us like this."
It sounds like Aunt Yu is right.
This kind of person will make trouble even when he is not right, and will make a big fuss if he is right.
Zhou Xiaozhou and his friends were now standing behind the crowd watching the excitement. The rumbling sound of the tricycle had long been drowned out by the shouting and cursing in front, so no one knew that Master Zhou and his friends were back.
Wu Sanmei wanted to jump out of the car to stop the fight, but was stopped by Zhou Xiaozhou. Are you kidding? Aunt Yu is so strong in fighting. What if Sanmei gets injured by mistake? She will be heartbroken.
In fact, she just wanted to watch a show.
"You shrew, you are always confusing right and wrong. It was obviously me who dug here first. You were jealous of the size of the beans I dug, so you drove Chunhua to the land I dug. This child is polite and knows that the land has been cleared by others, so she doesn't want to come here. Look at your arm, what a mess it is!"
As she spoke, the woman pulled up Yu Chunhua's arm and lifted her sleeve. Sure enough, the arm underneath was covered with bruises.
"You are going to die! You are pulling and tugging at a girl. This money-losing product of ours will be unsalable. You pulled the clothes, so tell your son to take it back."
But although Aunt Yu said it, she didn't seem to be trying to cover up for Yu Chunhua at all.
The girl just stood there and cried for a hundred years, obviously not daring to disobey her stepmother's wishes.
This Aunt Yu's method of making trouble was really powerful. The woman opposite saw that she couldn't persuade her, and her son was still being pursued by her, so she left cursing.
"How can you be a mother like you? You really don't give your daughter any chance to survive!"
After the opponent was defeated, Aunt Yu was still not satisfied and chased after him, scolding: "You are a good mother. I will send my daughter to your home and let her be your daughter! Please don't leave! Let's discuss what to do next. I don't ask for much. Give me five hundred coins and I will let you take my daughter away."
After hearing this, the woman ran even faster as if there was a ghost chasing her.
"Humph! It sounds better than singing, but when it happens to me, I run faster than a rabbit."
Aunt Yu, with her hands on her hips, turned around and saw Yu Chunhua wiping her tears, and she became angry again.
"You are crying! You cry every day, cry every day. People will think that I, your stepmother, have done something to you. You are my little aunt, you are well fed and served every day, yet you are still not satisfied. Do you really want to eat my flesh and drink my blood?"
Yu Chunhua immediately shut up like a quail.
Zhou Xiaozhou was secretly amazed, the effect was so good.
"Oh!" I heard a sigh from Wu Sanmei.
A group of women who came to watch the fun also dispersed when Aunt Yu pulled Chunhua's ear and walked under the tree.
Yes, the excitement is just for fun, food is more important.
The dense forest below the school was bustling with noise. In addition to the noise of women and girls, there were also voices of men talking.
Zhou Xiaozhou guessed that after the news spread, the villagers called all the men in charge to come and grab the beans.
On one side is the wheat that may not produce any harvest, and on the other side is the beans growing well underground. Everyone knows which one to choose.
It won't take overnight, the beans underneath will be dug up clean tonight.
That’s good, every family can have a full meal tonight.
Zhou Xiaozhou and his friends stood at the edge of the open space and looked down for a long time before they walked back to the place where they could exchange things at the urging of a young wife.
The woman was pretty and her face turned red before she even spoke.
"Master Zhou, this is a goat's horn. My father asked me to bring it to you and ask if it can be exchanged for rice?"
Zhou Xiaozhou looked at Wu Sanmei. She was not familiar with this matter, as Wu Sanmei was the one who made the decisions.
"Auntie, of course I can exchange it. This sheep horn is a good thing and can be used as medicine!" Wu Sanmei spoke sweetly to the woman.
"It's good if it can be changed. It's good if it can be changed. I don't know why Gou'er has gone crazy. He keeps making a fuss at home and insists on eating white rice. He has made his sister tired. He has been making a fuss these past two days and refuses to eat properly. I am so worried!"
Gou'er. Could it be Zhang Gou'er? Is this woman Zhang Gou'er's mother?
Zhou Xiaozhou felt that the woman looked familiar, and he didn't expect that he had actually met her before. It was just that it was too late that day, so he didn't remember her face clearly.
"It must be Xiaobao who caused the trouble," Wu Sanmei said, disparaging her brother. "Sister Zhou was kind enough to cook white rice for him twice before, but he showed off all over the village, causing Auntie to suffer."
Zhang Gou'er's mother didn't care. She looked at Zhou Xiaozhou with a smile and said, "Master Zhou is kind-hearted. He allowed everyone in our village to taste the white rice."
"Auntie, can I give you five kilograms of rice in exchange for this goat horn?"
Wu Sanmei did not make a random offer. She knew that a pound of mixed flour was five cents, and a pound of rice was twenty cents. So five pounds of rice would cost a hundred cents, which was not too little.
Didn’t you hear that Aunt Yu wanted to sell Chunhua in exchange for a betrothal gift, and the sky-high price she asked for was only five hundred coins?
Zhou Xiaozhou didn't quite understand the prices here, but she trusted Wu Sanmei completely.
Ge Meili was registering on the side. She took a pencil and wrote down what she had exchanged for and how much rice she had received in the notebook that Zhou Xiaozhou had wholesaled.
One thing has multiple uses, nothing is wasted.
"Okay, of course." The dog's mother smiled widely.
This deal is a good deal. Even if she took the goat horns to the county, she might not be able to exchange them for these old ones. She would have to put in a lot of effort.
Wu Sanmei quickly helped weigh five pounds of rice into the cloth bag brought by Gou'er's mother.
I was kind enough to tell her a piece of news.
