Faced with Yao Yinhua's doubts, Tian Wan felt no guilt at all. He puffed up his chest and said with a cold face: "It depends on what you said. I, Tian Wanyou, am a famous artist within a hundred miles. My biggest task is to give relief to those who have worked so hard."
Working farmers bring joy. This is a great and noble cause. Compared with our small family, everyone is obviously more important. It’s just that you don’t understand. You are still slandering me behind my back. Is it ridiculous?”
"Artist, are you kidding? Just like you, who put makeup on your face and twitch your butt with a handkerchief, you can still call it art. Do you know what the people are talking about you? They say you are just an aunt, or that kind of thing?
Auntie who likes to twist her butt."
Yao Yinhua is also the kind of eloquent woman. With just a few words, Tian Wanyou was so angry that her face turned red and she couldn't say a word.
The surrounding Tian family members should have been on Tian Wanyou's side at this time, but when they heard Yao Yinhua's words, they couldn't help laughing.
Because in their eyes, Tian Wanyou is a joke.
When Tian Wanyou first became an "artist", it was before liberation. At that time, famous actors and actresses who sang on stage were not a glorious profession and were called low-class people, let alone those who played clowns like Tian Wanyou.
A rural artist.
So every time Tian Wanyou wore bright red and green clothes and performed in the county town, those onlookers laughed and laughed.
The reason why Tian Wanyou has been able to continue performing for so many years is not only his own love for art, but also his relationship with a woman named Xiaocui.
Xiaocui was the concubine of Zhou Yuanwai, a leather goods shop in the county town. Before liberation, Zhou Yuanwai wanted to celebrate his mother's birthday, so he invited many guests and held a grand banquet. He also invited many famous actors from the opera to enhance the atmosphere.
You must know that although Zhou Yuanwai is not the richest and most powerful person in Huangyuan County, he has saved a lot of money because he has been running a leather goods shop here for generations, and he has a good relationship with local officials, so the birthday banquet
The ranking was also very good, and many famous people in Huangyuan County attended. The banquet caused a sensation in most of Huangyuan County.
It stands to reason that a wild man like Tian Wanyou, who can only perform on the street on weekdays, is not qualified to participate in a birthday banquet of this level. However, Zhou Yuanwai's old mother likes to join in the fun. She has long heard that in Huang
There was a clown in the original county town who dressed up as a man, and I always wanted to see him.
It's just that she is an old woman who can't walk. She can't even walk out of the door on weekdays. Where can she find opportunities and experiences? So she thought of using this opportunity to fulfill her long-cherished wish.
When Tian Wanyou first heard what the old butler said, he even thought that he had heard it wrong. It was not until the old butler repeated it twice that Tian Wanyou finally came to his senses and hurriedly agreed.
Just kidding, although he calls himself a peasant artist, he is actually a guy who cannot get on the stage. Now he can perform on the stage with the big names he admires, how can he not be happy.
In order to show that he attached great importance to this performance, Tian Wanyou spent a lot of money to customize a brand new performance costume and did not perform on the street for three consecutive days.
On the day of Zhou Yuanwai's mother's birthday party, Tian Wanyou tried his best to win the recognition of the guests and get their applause, but no matter how hard he tried, all he could get in the end was laughter.
.
Of course, Tian Wanyou didn't gain anything. He didn't notice that in the corner of the banquet, a slim little woman kept staring at Tian Wanyou with her big black eyes.
This woman is Xiaocui, the eldest wife of Yuan Zhou.
Zhou Yuanwai is nearly fifty years old this year, and his body has long since collapsed because he has been wandering in the fireworks and willow alleys all year round.
It's just that old people never grow old. After Zhou Yuanwai saw his daughter Xiaocui by chance, he fell in love with Xiaocui and wanted to marry her.
Xiaocui's father certainly didn't want to marry his daughter to a man older than him, so Xiaocui's father threw away all the lavish gifts sent by Zhou Yuanwai without hesitation.
When Zhou Yuanwai learned from the matchmaker what Xiaocui's father had done, he was not angry. Instead, he sent his old housekeeper and several servants to burn down Xiaocui's house overnight.
Later, he took over all the debts Xiaocui's father owed him from his creditors.
The next day, when Xiaocui's father was looking at the burned-out house and squatting on the ground inconsolable, Zhou Yuanwai came to him with his servants and asked him to pay off the debt owed to the Zhou family immediately.
The house had just been burned down, and Xiao Cui's father couldn't find any money, so Zhou Yuanwai kidnapped Xiao Cui on the street, took Xiao Cui home, and married her into a mistress.
Of course Xiaocui's father refused, but there was nothing he could do about it. Zhou Yuan was so wealthy that even the county magistrate in the county came to help him.
But the thought of his daughter suffering in the Zhou family made Xiaocui's father feel sad, and he died of illness within a few days.
After Xiaocui entered Zhou's house, she soon learned that the burning of her house was the result of Zhou Yuanwai's work behind the scenes.
So I kept waiting for an opportunity to escape.
How could Zhou Yuanwai let his daughter-in-law, whom he finally married, run away? As a result, Xiaocui ran away twice and was caught twice. Each time, she was beaten to death and covered with bruises.
In the days that followed, Xiaocui was locked up in the backyard almost all the time, and was not allowed to go out or have contact with outsiders.
It was today that Zhou Yuanwai's mother celebrated her birthday, so Xiaocui was able to come to the middle courtyard.
When Xiaocui saw the performance on the stage, she always felt that she had seen it before somewhere. After thinking about it carefully, she remembered that she and her father had watched this person's performance on the street.
This is one of the few happy memories she has with her father.
Just like that, Xiaocui developed a strong interest in Tian Wanyou.
After Tian Wanyou got off the stage, Xiao Cui quietly ran to the backstage and gave Tian Wanyou a handkerchief.
The handkerchief was embroidered with blue plum blossoms. This was the first time Tian Wanyou had been given such a thing by a girl. In addition, Xiao Cuiren was very beautiful, so he was attracted by it at that time.
The two of them hid in a deserted place and chatted with each other, and their relationship quickly heated up.
At this time, Tian Wanyou already knew that Xiaocui was Zhou Yuanwai's aunt, but he was always bold and bold, so he did not feel scared, but was full of excitement.
After Xiaocui expressed her desire to elope, Tian Wanyou immediately agreed.
After some discussion, the two of them sneaked out of Zhou's house quietly while the Zhou family was holding a birthday banquet. People were coming and going in the courtyard and the situation was quite chaotic.
Of course, before leaving, Xiaocui did not forget to return to her residence and take with her the money she had saved over the years.
It was this trip that brought disaster to Xiao Cui. Xiao Cui's maid was originally sent by Zhou Yuanwai to monitor him.
The maid happened to see Xiaocui escape with Tian Wanyou, and immediately reported to Zhou Yuanwai.
He robbed his wife and took away the money. Isn’t this bullying?
Zhou Yuanwai has been in Pingyuan County for many years, and this is the first time he has suffered such a big loss. He immediately sent the old housekeeper and dozens of servants to arrest the two men.
Tian Wanyou is not bad. He travels around the countryside all year round to perform from house to house. His legs and feet are very good. He can run better than those thieves.
Xiaocui is not good anymore. When she was at home, her body was relatively weak. After she was caught by Yuan Wai and brought to the Zhou family, she suffered from several serious illnesses and was beaten several times.
Don't move.
When Tian Wanyou saw the shadow of pursuers behind him, he hurriedly carried Xiao Cui on his shoulders and ran quickly outside Huangyuan County, heading straight for Shuangshui Village.
He knew that no matter how powerful the Zhou family was, they would not be able to influence the wild Shuangshui Village. As long as he returned to Shuangshui Village and relied on the Tian family, he might be able to save Xiaocui.
As a result, Tian Wanyou soon realized that he seemed to have overestimated his physical strength. Just watching Xiao Cui run for more than ten miles, he was so exhausted that he almost fainted on the ground.
At this time, Xiao Cui also realized that something was not good. He sighed and said, "Tian Sheng, we are destined to be together... See you in the next life."
With that said, before Tian Wanyou could react, she rolled off Tian Wanyou's shoulders, ran to the cliff next to her, and jumped down.
Seeing the emerald green shadow disappear under the cliff, Tian Wanyou was so angry that he hammered the ground with his fist.
After Xiao Cui died, Tian Wanyou fled all the way back to Shuangshui Village. After Zhou Yuanwai in Huangyuan County learned the news of Xiao Cui's death, he also wanted to capture Tian Wanyou and give him a severe lesson.
To relieve the hatred in my heart.
So he specially sent his old housekeeper to Shuangshui Village to ask Landlord Jin to hand over Tian Wanyou.
However, Landlord Jin is a landowner and does not take Zhou Yuanwai seriously at all. Besides, most of his long-term workers are named Tian, and those people are very united. If Tian Wanyou is really handed over, then Shuangshui Village will be very
It's a big deal. In addition, at this time, Shuangshui Village is in the wheat harvest season. If the long-term workers start to make trouble, who will help him harvest the wheat?
So Landlord Jin kicked the housekeeper out unceremoniously.
After learning about Landlord Jin's attitude, Zhou Yuanwai also gave up his desire for revenge.
After all, after Xiao Cui died, he could just marry another wife. Besides, after living with Xiao Cui for so long, he had long been tired of this unfamiliar woman.
As a businessman, Jin Landlord adheres to the principle of never losing money in business and is not willing to waste a penny for revenge.
Only then did Tian Wanyou save a small life.
But from then on, he never dared to leave Shuangshui Village, so he was able to marry and have children with the help of his fathers. He gave birth to a son, Tian Haimin, and two daughters.
If it had always been like this, even though Tian Haimin knew about Tian Wanyou's bad things, he would not fall out with him. But after the liberation of Huangyuan County, Zhou Yuanwai ran away to who knows where. Tian Wanyou had the heart to express himself for art.
My heart started pounding again.
He left Shuangshui Village again and began to perform his specialty tricks in Huangyuan County.
....
Everyone in the Tian family knows about these nonsense, but no one mentioned it just to save face for Tian Wanyou.
Now hearing Yao Yinhua mention it again, those onlookers couldn't help laughing.
"You, you... are not very filial!" Tian Wan was speechless for a while. He hesitated for a long time before finally holding back a sentence.
"If you want your son and wife to be filial, you, the elder, should do something serious!" Yao Yinhua spat and said coldly: "Now that Tian Haimin has been arrested, you don't want to find any way to rescue Tian Haimin.
, but for the sake of your own face, you came to speak for this old guy Tian Futang, why don’t you have any shame?"
It has to be said that Yao Yinhua's attack power is still very strong. These words were like a big hammer, hitting Tian Wanyou's heart hard.
This old artist, who had once disguised herself as a man in front of countless people without changing her expression, felt her heart beating fast, and then she began to fall into a trance.
He felt that everything around him began to rotate, and the patrol turned into long strips, spinning rapidly, and finally everything in front of him became pitch black.
Seeing Tian Wanyou swaying and suddenly fainting on the ground, everyone at the scene panicked.
Tian Futang no longer cared about surrounding Yao Yinhua, rushed over and hugged Tian Wanyou, shouting loudly: "Tian Wanyou, Tian Wanyou, wake up!"
Seeing that Tian Wanyou's eyes were closed, his teeth were clenched, and his whole body began to tremble, Tian Futang realized that something was wrong.
He quickly found someone to take Tian Wanyou to the local doctor at the entrance of the village.
There was no such thing as a barefoot doctor in these days, and those local doctors had not received any training. They only knew some local recipes and were good at treating some chronic diseases, but they had no way to deal with Tian Wanyou's emergency.
Tian Futang saw that the situation was not good, so he had no choice but to ask a cart driver from the village to ride on an ox cart and take Tian Wanyou to the county hospital.
The Tian family was busy here, and Jin Junshan took advantage of this gap to take action.
He brought Yao Yinhua to the village committee.
The two stopped at the door of the village committee. Jin Junshan turned to look at Yao Yinhua: "Yinhua, things have developed to this point. You have completely lost face with Tian Futang. If you can't persuade Tian Haimin, Tian Haimin will
With the instigation of Tian Futang and those Tian family members, he might divorce you."
This sounds a bit exaggerated, but Yao Yinhua knows very well that if Tian Haimin values the Tian family more than Yao Yinhua, then this possibility will really happen in the future.
She took a deep breath and forced a smile: "Uncle Junshan, don't worry, I will definitely convince Tian Haimin."
The two chatted for a while, and Jin Junshan felt that time was almost up, so he took Yao Yinhua into the small warehouse of the village committee.
When Tian Haimin heard the door open, he closed his eyes and sighed: "Jin Junshan, don't try to persuade me again. I'm from the Tian family and I won't help your Jin family."
"Hai Min, it's me!"
Tian Haimin opened his eyes and raised his head, and was stunned when he saw Yao Yinhua coming in. After looking him up and down, he asked in surprise: "Yinhua, why are you here? Where is our son!"
"My son is at Uncle Junshan's house, you don't have to worry."
"You gave your son to the Jin Junshan family..."
Hearing this, Tian Haimin's face suddenly dimmed: "Are you here to plead for Jin Junshan?"
