Kou Ya looked a little embarrassed: "I never thought things would end up like this... I never wanted to marry him in the first place..."
Chu Yunli couldn't bear it anymore and said rudely: "If you don't want to get married, don't hook up with him. You know clearly that you are the only one who can stop him, but in the end you didn't show up from the beginning to the end. He just chased me all over the street with a knife.
, If I ran slower, where would I still be alive now?"
There were people watching the excitement wherever Chu Yunli appeared. Kou Ya sneaked over because he was afraid of being discovered. When he said these words, many people had already gathered around him.
"The relationship between me and him is innocent!"
Rather than saying this to Chu Yunli, it is better to say this to the onlookers.
Chu Yunli sneered: "Get out of the way, I'll go home and pack things to give you a seat! From now on, you two must love each other and stop harming others."
She took off and left.
How could Kou Ya dare to admit this? She grabbed him and said, "We want to marry him again. How do you want to believe me?"
Chu Yunli shook her off: "I don't care whether you marry or not. Anyway, I can't survive this day. In other words, he should marry you. When Gao Shan came back to kill his whole family, he just happened to kill all you shameless people.
die."
Kou Ya's face turned pale: "If I knew, I would definitely stop it..."
Chu Yunli's face was full of sarcasm: "Really? You know nothing, understand nothing, and don't think about anything. You are innocent when things are like this." She took a step back: "I said this, you are satisfied
Are you ready? Can you let me go?"
After saying that, he turned around and left regardless of her expression.
There were several people in the Pan family's yard chatting at the moment. They were all sitting at the door of the woodshed, probably wanting to look at the mountains. When they saw Chu Yunli coming in, they all asked: "Are you okay?"
Chu Yunli shook his head: "I ran to find the fifth grandfather. He made the decision and asked me to go back to my parents' house first to avoid it."
Everyone was speechless.
"Pan Daudao, this is too outrageous!"
"Yes, Zhenniang has given birth to children for him all her life, and she hasn't even finished her confinement yet."
Someone looked worried: "Your mother-in-law usually comes to see you. If they learn that you are going back before the end of your confinement, will they let you in?"
There are unwritten rules nowadays. A married girl cannot go back to her natal family for confinement, and she cannot enter her natal family before her confinement period is over. It is said that if she enters, it will bring bad luck to her brothers in her natal family.
Chu Yunli lowered his eyes: "I definitely don't dare to live in this yard anymore. He wants to kill me in front of outsiders. If it's just the two of us, how can I survive?"
Everyone looked at each other.
Zhang Zhenniang is so pitiful.
Chu Yunli quickly went into the house and packed a small baggage. Zhang Zhenniang did not have a dowry, so she only had these few clothes. She went out quickly, but she still bumped into Pan Dadan who was rushing back.
Pan boldly stared at her fiercely: "Zhang Zhenniang, you are doing well."
Chu Yunli knocked him away and ran away quickly.
The village where the Zhang family is located is not far from the town, only a two-quarters of an hour's walk away. There is a lot of commotion in the town, but the village is peaceful. It should not have spread here yet.
Zhang Zhenniang knew that her parents didn't like her, and she was very dissatisfied with the marriage that her parents had arranged for her. She didn't have time to eat or drink after getting married, and Pan Dadan didn't ask her to interact with her parents' family. Except for a trip back last year, she discovered this year
After becoming pregnant, she never returned once.
However, she grew up in the village and many people knew her. As soon as Chu Yunli appeared, many people said hello.
"Zhenniang, why are you back?"
Some aunts sighed: "You look so pale. You probably haven't nursed back yet. You shouldn't go out at this time. You are in confinement. If you see the wind, you will get the root of the disease. You are too young. You should wrap up tighter!"
"
While she was talking, the aunt had already stepped forward to help her adjust her collar: "When you get older, you will know how powerful it is."
While talking, everyone remembered that Zhang Zhenniang was not yet one month old. Someone asked tentatively: "Why are you coming back at this time? Is something wrong?"
Chu Yunli had cried just now, and now her eyes were red. She did not hide it, and told the story again with choked sobs.
More and more people were watching, and they really thought this was something strange.
"I've heard before that Pan DaDa has a secret relationship with the Gao family's daughter-in-law... I didn't expect it to be true..." She asked out of curiosity: "Zhenniang, have you really made a big deal out of this?"
Chu Yunli nodded: "Yes. Now everyone knows about the affair between the two of them, but Kou Ya still pretends to be innocent in front of outsiders, saying that she doesn't know anything."
"Shit!" someone spat: "It's just shameless! No wonder Gao Shan wants to kill someone with a knife. This kind of thing would make anyone angry."
"What you said is wrong. Gao Shan wanted to kill someone, but he went to find the culprit! Why should he kill Zhenniang?"
…
Not long after, the Zhang family got the news and rushed over.
At first, Zhang's mother thought everyone was joking, but it seemed that everyone was serious, so she was willing to go and squeeze into the crowd. When she saw that it was her daughter inside, she immediately became angry: "What are you doing back now? You just can't watch.
Isn't your brother good?"
"Don't be so angry." One of Zhang Zhenniang's aunts said: "Sister-in-law, Zhenniang came back because she was cornered. Stop yelling and take her back first. She is still in confinement."
"Impossible!" Mother Zhang yelled back: "You just stand and talk without pain in your back. If your daughter runs back to her parents' home for confinement, are you willing to let her in?"
Aunt Zhang was a little embarrassed: "Zhenniang's situation is different. Pan boldly wants to kill her!"
"So what? That's her man. If she doesn't make him pay attention to her, that's because she doesn't have the ability." Zhang's mother said plausibly: "Zhenniang, don't think that your mother and I are mean. During the confinement period,
, everyone will be wronged. When I gave birth to you, I cried every day. I didn’t even think about walking away, so I endured it. At this time, you should be at home, and you shouldn’t even leave the door..."
Some people couldn't stand it anymore: "You don't even know what happened..."
Zhang's mother interrupted her and said, "No matter what happens, she will not dare to go to her parents' house."
Chu Yunli came back at this time just to let everyone see clearly how the Zhang family treats their daughter. The more mean the Zhang family is, if she turns against the Zhang family later, no one will say anything wrong to her.
She planned to wait for Zhang's mother to say a few more words before turning around and leaving. While they were arguing, Zhang Zhu's mother rushed over. Her natal family and husband's family were all in this village, and it was because she was busy in the fields that she got the news a little late. Otherwise, she would have come here long ago.
Still far away, I heard my mother plausibly telling others that a married woman should not go back to her parents' home during confinement. She immediately bullied her and squeezed into the crowd: "Sister, don't beg her, you come with me."
.”
Zhang's mother said angrily: "You are generous! She has bad luck, don't regret it if you are unlucky!"
Zhang Zhuniang is a girl in this village, and she naturally knows the unwritten rules, but the situation is different. She said angrily: "My sister is going to die. Pan is bold and unwilling to do anything. If you don't let her come back, you want to force her to death."
Is this your biological daughter? Your son is your root, so isn’t your daughter just the flesh that has fallen from your body?"
Zhang's mother did not relax because of her youngest daughter's words: "Anyway, you can't go back to your parents' home during confinement."
"No reply." Zhang Zhuniang stretched out her hand and grabbed Chu Yunli: "Sister, come with me. It's just me and my fourth brother at home. You are my sister, and you are also his sister. He won't be unhappy."
Chu Yunli withdrew her hand: "I won't bother you..."
"Don't be stubborn!" Zhang Zhuniang said in a tone that could not be refused: "You are still weak now, so you shouldn't run around outside. Come home with me first."
Everyone on the side was trying to persuade her, but Chu Yunli couldn't resist and went to Zhang Zhu's mother's house.
But in this way, no one said anything was wrong with the Zhang family, but in their hearts they felt that Zhang's mother was too mean. There were some rules that should be followed, but her daughter's life was about to be lost. She was still there to break the rules, which was too stubborn.
some.
"You just don't take your daughter seriously!" the aunt next door to Zhang Zhuniang hit the nail on the head: "When girls here grow up, they should really know the difference. After all, the most filial piety for a daughter's family after she gets married is to send some things back, but the son and daughter-in-law have to wait on them.
, it is true that the son should be favored when he poops and urinates. But the girl also gave birth to her own child, how could she be so cruel?"
Zhang Zhu’s mother didn’t want the affairs of this family to be laughed at, especially to talk about her mother’s family’s misery in front of her husband’s relatives, which was actually very inappropriate. She smiled and said, “My mother can’t stand it for a while, and she will definitely regret it later.”
After dismissing the outsiders, Zhang Zhuniang went to the kitchen to cook again. Chu Yunli wanted to help, but she drove her back into the house.
Zhang Zhu's parents' family was very poor, and several of her brothers were already poor. They couldn't get anything out of the family when they were separated. They only got a side room. The room Chu Yunli lived in was a utility room behind the kitchen, and the beds in it were broken.
It was in tatters. Zhang Zhuniang packed it up just to let guests stay overnight.
"You can live here for now, don't dislike it. As long as we and our husband have a living, we will never be without you."
Chu Yunli sat on the bed, sighing silently in her heart. Zhang Zhenniang always thought that the relationship between the sisters was not good, but now it seems that Zhang Zhuniang is quite happy to take care of her.
Zhang Zhuniang's husband, Liu Laosi, was a very honest and honest man. He was only surprised for a moment about taking in his sister-in-law, but he quickly accepted it without saying anything unpleasant or showing off.
Chu Yunli spent a quiet night.
The next morning, just after dawn, the door was pushed open, and Zhang Zhuniang came in carrying a large bowl with four eggs lying in it.
"Eat it while it's hot."
Chu Yunli was quite speechless. People in the country did not have such an early breakfast. Zhang Zhuniang was obviously doing this because she wanted to take care of her confinement.
"I've never eaten so early, so there's no need to bother."
After hearing this, Zhang Zhuniang immediately became angry: "Pan Dadan is really not a human being. No matter how poor the family in our village is, they will not miss out on food and drink for a short period of time. He is good... Why don't you tell me these things?
?”
So what if I say so?
With Pan's bold temperament, the most he dared to say in private was to say it to his face, and he might even hit someone if he got angry.
"Don't go anywhere, and don't think too much. We'll wait here for the full moon first." Zhang Zhuniang sighed: "Wait half a month for you two to reconcile and divorce. Then you can choose a suitable person. We won't pick anyone.
As long as the person is good, it will be fine. Just like my fourth brother, although he is a little poorer, he is really good to me. Just like if I take you in, if I marry someone else, I won't necessarily take care of you.
But fourth brother is willing to..."
Chu Yunli teased her: "Yes, yes, my brother-in-law is the best, and you picked him up."
Zhang Zhuniang raised her chin slightly and said proudly: "The most right thing I did in my life was to marry him."
Chu Yunli looked teasingly at the door, where Liu Laosi had been standing for a long time. It was hard to tell whether he was blushing or not, but his ears were already red.
While joking, Chu Yunli finished eating the eggs in his hand and even drank the soup. Because there was meat oil in the soup, it was too luxurious to throw it away in the eyes of the country people.
Zhang Zhuniang was very satisfied and reached out to take the bowl: "I will make you chicken soup at noon."
Just at this time, Liu Laosi's voice came from outside: "Mother Zhu, mother is here."
Both of the Liu family's parents were gone, and the only mother he mentioned was Zhang's mother. Zhang Zhu's face changed slightly, she got up and stormed out the door angrily.
From the day she got married, or before she got married, she knew that her natal family was unreliable and didn't think she had the need to please her mother. Therefore, she was not afraid at all, and at worst, there would be a quarrel.
She ran to the door and saw clearly that in addition to Zhang's mother, Pan was also following behind. She paused slightly and said, "Mom, why are you here?"
Pan stepped forward boldly and first greeted Liu Laosi: "Brother-in-law, I troubled you yesterday. I came to pick someone up... Zhen Niang is too ignorant, don't be angry."
Liu Laosi looked him up and down without any trace of his eyes: "I heard that you were chasing my sister all over the street with a knife?"
With so many people seeing it with their own eyes, Pan couldn't defend himself boldly. He only said: "I was angry at the time and didn't really want to kill someone. I am not that impulsive. Otherwise, with my bad temper, something would have happened."
"It's over." He raised his voice and shouted: "Zhen Niang, you are not yet one month old. It is not suitable to live in other people's homes. Come home with me!"
Zhang's mother also spoke up: "I think Da Dao has realized his mistake and won't do anything to you again. You two can't live together until half a month has passed. You'd better go home and live there first, and you can't cause trouble for your sister."
.”
Chu Yunli stood at the door of the room and looked at her coldly: "I didn't ask you to take her in, and I don't want you to take care of her."
Zhang's mother was furious: "You are my daughter, and Zhu Niang is also my daughter. If you want to bring bad luck to others, I will not agree to it, and I will not agree to it even more if you bring me another daughter. You have to go today, or not.
You have to go too."
Not to mention Chu Yunli, even Zhang Zhuniang was furious: "Mom, if you really loved your daughter so much, my sister wouldn't be in the situation she is in now. You said you came to take care of us, you clearly just wanted to help Pan DaDa take over.
When my sister goes back...she was still stabbing people with a knife yesterday, how could she change her mind so quickly? When you asked her to go back with him, did you want to collect her body?"
"Nonsense." Zhang's mother angrily said: "She is from the Pan family. If there is a misunderstanding between the husband and wife, it is enough. How can they live in trouble just because of something? There are fewer couples fighting to the death in the village? People still
Why don’t you just continue after the fight and then go to your sister’s place?”
Zhang Zhuniang was so angry that she jumped up and down. This was obviously unreasonable. She shouted: "Other men don't make their wives and children pay for their lives after causing trouble outside!"
"That was an accident." Pan Bingdao said hurriedly: "Gao Shan is like a madman. I heard that the prison is not a place for people. He has been locked up for so many years, so he must have lost his mind. In this way, today I
I came to pick up your sister, but I haven't even sent him to the Yamen yet. If you are still angry, just go and beat him up. If you still don't feel relieved, you can kill him. At the worst, you can say that he went crazy and sought his own death...
...Or we can set fire to the woodshed and burn him to death without any evidence."
Zhang Zhuniang's complexion changed slightly.
Pan boldly saw this and changed his words: "I am doing this to calm you down. If the truth is eventually found out, I will pay with my life! Just say that I was the one who killed the person and it has nothing to do with you..."
Chu Yunli stood up and went out: "Are you here to pick me up?"
Pan nodded boldly: "Zhen Niang, you should do your own thing. How can you go to other people's houses during confinement? No matter whose house you go to, you are causing trouble to others... Come home with me first!"
Chu Yunli didn't take these words to heart and said again: "Do you know you were wrong?"
Pan boldly said: "..." He really didn't think he was wrong.
Things have come to this point because of a strange combination of circumstances.
"Let's discuss these things when we go back."
Chu Yunli shook his head: "Will you still associate with Kou Ya in the future?"
Pan boldly grinded his teeth secretly and said: "I used to take care of their mother and son because of the brotherhood. Gao Shan misunderstood and came to kill my wife and children. I will never forgive him in this life. Since the brotherhood is no longer there, of course I
I won’t take care of them anymore, don’t worry, if I don’t visit her door in the future, I won’t see her again... Even if we meet her on the street, the more I pretend I don’t know her, okay?”
His expression and tone were quite humble, as if Chu Yunli could agree to anything as long as he was willing to go back.
However, Chu Yunli knew very well that this was just an act. Pan Dadan had never been so gentle towards Zhang Zhenniang.
The more abnormal it is, the more it proves that there is something going on here.
The purpose of this trip has been achieved. Now everyone knows how harshly the Zhang family treats their daughter. Also, Zhang Zhuniang's life is really difficult. Even if Chu Yunli repays the favor in the future, he must let Zhang Zhuniang take care of her full moon first... This
The couple has to bear all the expenses for a period of time, which is a big burden for them.
Sisterhood doesn't cost that much.
Chu Yunli stood up: "Let's go!"
Mother Zhang was satisfied: "This is right."
Zhang Zhuniang was very anxious: "Sister, don't go. We all agreed last night that you will stay with me until the full moon and then come back..."
Chu Yunli smiled: "I know you're worried about me. Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to me." After saying that, he held her hand and patted it: "I know what's going on."
Zhang Zhuniang can't rest assured.
When Pan DaDang saw that she was willing to go back with him, the smile on his face deepened: "I have already bought two more chickens and asked the aunt next door to stew them. You can drink them as soon as you get back. By the way, the medicine is also ready. Let's have some
Young man, you have to take good care of yourself and give me a child as soon as possible. If we have children of our own, you will definitely feel at ease."
Chu Yunli didn't listen to this. After arriving at the door, he said: "I walked back yesterday, and my calves still hurt. As you said, I should take good care of myself and not be tired. In this case, you go find a fight
The carriage, the kind with a fence, I can't see the wind now."
Pan gritted his teeth boldly: "Wait."
Mother Zhang spat, looking down upon her: "You are destined to be a maid, but if you still insist on riding in a carriage, just do it. When you lose your patience, I think you will be beaten again."
"Shut up." Chu Yunli looked sideways at her: "From now on, please stay out of my business."
"Do you think I care about you?" Zhang's mother said angrily: "My Zhang family does not have a daughter who was divorced by a man. If you can't survive this life, just find a rope and hang yourself. Don't expect me to take you in."
"
If Zhang Zhenniang really heard these words here, she would probably be sad again.
Chu Yunli's face remained as usual: "I saw clearly yesterday that no matter what happens to me, I can't count on you. Mother, if something happens to you in the future, don't come to me."
Zhang’s mother emphasized: “You are my daughter.”
"It's a good thing that I'm your daughter, otherwise I wouldn't want to say a word to you." Chu Yunli walked back: "Mother Zhu, I will ask someone to send you something later. Don't refuse, just accept it.
"
Zhang Zhuniang frowned: "Don't provoke Pan DaDa again."
She really hated her mother for setting such a marriage for her sister, and she also really disliked Pan DaDa, even unwilling to call her brother-in-law.
"He doesn't lack this thing, don't give it up." Chu Yunli said casually.
Zhang Zhuniang said hurriedly: "I am not lacking either. If you want to give me something before going back, then give up the idea as soon as possible."
Amid Zhang Zhuniang's worries, Chu Yunli got on the carriage back to town.
Pan DaDa sat outside the carriage. The couple didn't say a word on the road. When they arrived at the door of their house, Chu Yunli took the lead in the door. Pan Da Da dismissed the coachman outside and closed the door as he entered.
There was no one else in the yard. Chu Yunli had just taken two steps when she heard him say viciously: "Zhang Zhenniang, do you really think that I am bringing you back to live here?"
Chu Yunli turned back: "What else?"
"You ruined my reputation and hurt Ya'er. I'm not that generous." Pan said boldly and rushed over.
Chu Yunli turned sideways and stumbled.
She moved so fast that Pan Daudao couldn't dodge and fell straight into the mud.
Chu Yunli's eyes were sharp, he picked up the stone stool next to him and smashed it down on his leg.
The next moment, Pan screamed boldly, the blood on his face faded, and he wanted to reach out to hug his calf, but he didn't dare to hug it, his whole body was trembling.
He looked at Chu Yunli with eyes full of anger. Looking at his posture, if he could get up, he would really kill someone.
Chu Yunli picked up the stone stool that had fallen to the side and smashed it down again under his frightened and angry eyes.
