Li Dazhuang, who was hiding in the room, was so scared that he was stamping his feet anxiously in the room without any clue.
Yuan Songlin was at the door holding a wooden stick and staring at the closed door inside. He knew that Li Dazhuang was in the house, but he just didn't dare to show his face.
Da Zhuang's father and Da Zhuang's mother were guarding the door. As long as they didn't give way, Li Tiezhu wouldn't dare to force his way in front of so many people.
The old couple knows what kind of virtue their son has.
Li Tiezhu was well-known in the village for his honesty, and he would usually not wrong anyone casually. Even if someone did take advantage of him, he would most of the time suffer the consequences.
They brought someone to the door now. It must have been their stupid son who accidentally injured Mrs. Lin and the child in her belly. No matter how honest Li Tiezhu was, he would still be impatient, so they still had this awareness.
The old couple looked at each other and blocked the door so that no one, not even a mouse, could get through.
The old couple are just one person. If something happens, how will they survive?
Yuan Songlin was not annoyed and just waited at the door. Anyway, he knew all the members of the Li family, and he had gone from door to door to help with the work, so he was familiar with it.
If he hears the news and wants to run away, let him run away. If the monk can run away but cannot run away from the temple, he will still go to each family to ask for the Dharma.
Yang Laosan and the villagers were also very efficient in their work, and soon they came back with a few young men.
"Brothers Songlin, look, are they these?"
Before Yang Laosan could finish his words, a large group of people followed behind them while walking and cursing.
"Damn it, Li Tiezhu, after all we have watched you grow up, so how can you be so indifferent to others? My children are at fault and we have to teach them ourselves. People come here in broad daylight. As soon as Father Li dies, you will
It’s the other way around, isn’t it?!”
"Li Tiezhu, I'm warning you, if my son loses a hair, I won't be able to spare you!"
"What kind of trouble are you going to make? Nothing big happened to your family. Why are you so stubborn?"
"I understand my child. This child has been timid and fearful since he was a child. How could he do anything harmful to the world? It's you Li Tiezhu. I heard Mrs. Li say that you are not filial to her and even beat your own brother for the sake of harmony between brothers.
, she just asked your family to live alone. If your family is not happy, it will cause trouble for us, right?"
"So you are such a person. Fortunately, everyone used to think that you and the third son of the Yang family were the most honest and filial people in the village. Unexpectedly, today you two went to someone else's house to block the door. Your previous honesty was all just an act.
?That’s right. If he wasn’t pretending, why would an honest farmer want to separate his family and eliminate his clan? You guys are hiding it quite deeply!”
"It is natural for women to give birth to children. Who doesn't suffer the consequences of giving birth to children? The one in your family has to support her. If she can't give birth to a child, it's because she has no ability. Why do you rely on my children?"
"That is, if she couldn't give birth to a son in the first two babies, she is asking for trouble if she has another baby. She has been pregnant for several months. If she gives birth a few days earlier, what's the impact?"
With their words, they put all the responsibility for Mrs. Lin's almost death in childbirth back to Yuan Songlin and Mrs. Lin, trying to remove their children from trouble through these words.
Yuan Songlin didn't answer a word, just looked at them coldly, watching them argue passionately. As long as those young men were still in his hands, they would not be able to make any waves.
The village chief and Li Zheng didn't say a word, looking at the group of people messing around with indifferent eyes.
How come you still don’t understand the situation clearly until now?
The child is still in someone else's hands, but they are not busy criticizing themselves and are still throwing dirty water on others. They have never seen such a stupid person!
Several young men were clamped and struggled to escape. They could only howl and ask their parents for help.
Those people looked anxious but had no choice.
When Yuan Songlin saw that it was almost time, he said: "Everyone is a relative of the Li family. I used to be Li Tiezhu, the third son of the old Li family. Everyone should know each other. Since everyone has questions, I will tell the story again.
.”
"Yesterday, Sange Yang and I went shopping in the town. There was only my pregnant wife and two children at home. These young men took advantage of this time to go to my house to cheat, saying that I had bought new land and built a new house, and that I was living a good life.
It’s a good time, why don’t you help your relatives in the clan? My daughter-in-law
The woman explained honestly that she had borrowed the money and hadn’t paid it back yet. No one believed her! Before I could say a few words, a few people walked into my house and started collecting things like robbers. They said they were just borrowing them for use.
, I’ll be back in a few days, I’m afraid only you know what your actual plans are.”
"Later, my wife saw something was wrong and tried to stop her, but she couldn't stop anyone. Li Dazhuang even pushed my wife to the ground and told them all to run away, leaving things all over the yard. My wife was about to give birth.
If the sail girl from Brother Yang’s family hadn’t come back in time, my body would have been completely cold by the time I came back! Do you think I should settle this debt?”
After saying this, the people who were still clamoring looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what to say, and seemed to be paying no attention to what they said.
The village chief and Li Zheng both had sullen faces and glanced at the young men, their disgust evident in their expressions.
Normally, they were quite opposed to barbaric bullying, but today they felt that Li Tiezhu did the right thing. He didn't do anything to a few people, so they simply let him go, which just gave a few rogues in the village a long memory.
Yuan Songlin raised the wooden stick in his hand and raised his voice to increase the volume.
"I, Li Tiezhu, told me when I was building a house some time ago that I borrowed the money from Third Brother Yang. The crops in the field have just matured and one tree has not been confiscated. In other words, I haven't even had a penny of Brother Yang's money.
Also, everyone, the money I paid for the work when I built the house was very generous and I gave it to you. If I remember
If you are correct, everyone present has gone to ask for work. In this way, I, Li Tiezhu, am not a wealthy household in the village, so I will be shameless and ask everyone to return me 20 cents, no more, no less, as long as one household returns it.
Twenty coins, I will pretend that what happened yesterday never happened, and we will not interact with each other in the future."
When it comes to refunding money, one or two people start to shrink back.
How could there be any reason to go back with the money he got? How could he cut off contact with them? If he didn't take them with him when he got rich in the future, wouldn't it be in vain?
Li Dazhuang in the room felt very anxious. If he didn't go out, those people would rush in and drag him out.
When he couldn't do it, he rushed out of the room and shouted: "I, you deliberately went to your house to cause trouble. It was your mother who said that as long as I bring people to cause trouble when you are not at home, she will give me fifty cents."
!”
Yuan Songlin was stunned on the spot by this roar, let alone others, and forgot to react.
It's not enough for that old woman to harm his parents, she will continue to harm his wife and children!
