Chapter 54 The Zhu Family's 'Family Love'
In addition to these hard dishes, Meng Yulan also chopped the dumpling fillings early. The dumplings filled with pickled cabbage and pork were prepared according to the four-cover curtain. If that wasn't enough, there was still plenty of pork belly in the cellar below the warehouse.
Let's put it this way, the standard of the Yue Feng family's celebration today is much higher than the standard of hospitality when the mayor goes to the countryside. In this era of scarcity of supplies, today's meal can be considered as high as the ceiling.
Ladies from several houses came to help with the work, so the work was not too tiring. Yue Feng and his group of gentlemen didn’t get started at all. They were all crowded on the kang in the east room, cracking sunflower seeds and chatting. God, my little days are so moisturizing.
As the main force of today's 5V5, Xiao Tao was particularly arrogant in the room.
When I got home, I thought I would be punished by my father, but it turned out that Li Wentong just mentioned it during lunch and told me to fight in the future. No one is allowed to go deep alone, and it is easy to suffer losses. With these good buddies and brothers, we must unite and work together. advance and retreat.
"Brother Feng, we fought with the Zhu family today, and they will definitely not let it go! We still have to be careful, those Zhu family people are not good people!" Xiaowen saw an opportunity and reminded Yue Feng in a low voice One sentence.
"He dares! He has turned them upside down! If he dares to bare his teeth again, we will beat him up!" Xiao Tao glared and said confidently.
Of course Yue Feng knows what the Zhu brothers are like. These people are accustomed to being domineering in the village because of the large number of boys in the family. They rarely suffer from minor frictions.
If you want to offend, go to hell to offend him. Today's battle, especially the slap Yue Feng gave to Old Man Zhu, completely smashed the Zhu family's face to the ground.
However, Yue Feng knew that the Zhu family was just a paper tiger, and the Zhu family was actually not as united as it seemed on the surface.
There was an incident in his last life that Yue Feng remembered very clearly. Zhu Dahai went to the forest farm to pull strings and started working with some blind people. Later, someone came to Murakami and broke Zhu Dahai's leg.
Zhu Jianshe called his brother to go to the forest farm to cause trouble, but the second and third sons of the Zhu family did not show up at all. In the end, it was Wang Jianguo who went to negotiate with the forest farm in the name of the village brigade.
Yue Feng took a bite of the stove fruit and said calmly: "Since this matter has been mediated by the team and both parties have no objections, it means that the matter is over for the time being!< br>
If they dare to continue to cause trouble, then continue to deal with them! There are a lot of us brothers. No matter whether they are soft or hard, we should be careful when we are alone. That’s it! ”
...
While Yue Feng and the others were sitting on the kang bragging about their good food and drink, the atmosphere at Zhu Jianshe's house on the other side was very bad.
The instigator, Zhu Erhai, had a big bump on his head that Xiao Tao had made with a stick. He also had two clear fingerprints on his face.
At this moment, Old Man Zhu and Mrs. Ma were sitting in the main room of Zhu Jianshe's house. The faces of everyone in the room were very ugly.
"Dad, the second child is your grandson. I traded the goose at home for the eagle so that I could catch rabbits and pheasants in the mountains in the future. I just forgot to tell you. We are all a family. You always talk about children. Stealing your goose, this is a bit too much!" Although Niu Guihua's posture was slightly lower, her tone was not kind.
Mr. Zhu smoked his pipe and pot for a long time, and then said: "My wife, let me ask you, how long has it been since you and Jianshe gave me and your mother food? What did we say when we separated? "
"This...isn't this a difficult time for the family? I am a grown-up boy who lives in poverty. When the three children in the family are growing up, the food rations at home are not enough every year!" Niu Guihua also knew that she was in the wrong. But the scene words that should be said still have to be said.
"I know your family is having a hard time, but your mother and I have never come to ask for food rations, right?"
"No...never!"
"The second child If you go to my house and secretly pick up a goose that lays eggs in exchange for an eagle, should you ask for your mother’s and my consent?”
"The second child forgot to tell you, he didn't mean it!" "Okay, I agree that my own grandson didn't mean it, so let's just treat this goose as one bought by your family. Is there anything wrong with it?
< br>I don’t want much, today’s market price is 4.5 yuan, you give me the money, and the matter is settled today!
As for the people our Zhu family lost in the village today, I will treat them as their elders! Zhu Tou has no way to teach his son, he deserves it!”
When it comes to money, Niu Guihua immediately got angry, four and a half yuan is not a small amount. Although their family could afford it, Niu Guihua was not prepared to take the money. With the money they had saved, they still had to give the second and third children a wife.
"My family... I have no money!!" Before Niu Guihua could speak, Zhu Jianshe refused directly with a cold tone.
"The family has no money? No money is okay. This big eagle was exchanged for geese, right? I will take the eagle away and sell it for whatever I can!" Old Man Zhu looked at his son with drooped eyelids and said. .
"I have been working with Erzi for several nights on this eagle. If I take it away now, won't it be abandoned halfway? Is this okay? This money is considered a loan. When your grandson makes money by flying the eagle, then Give it back to you!”
Zhu Jianshe proposed a plan that can be called a bastard.
If you ask for money and don’t give it to me, and if you ask for an eagle, you won’t give it to me. Whenever my grandson makes money, he will pay it back.
Mr. Zhu glanced at his somewhat unfamiliar son and said, "Okay, second child, write me an IOU! It's time to earn this money by flying eagles during the winter. I'll take the note to collect the debt at the end of this year!"
Speaking of this, there is no trace of the blood relationship between father and son. Zhu Erhai did not dare to hold his tongue at the moment, and obediently wrote an IOU to his grandfather, and then sent away the old couple who had come to the family to investigate.
After his grandparents left, Zhu Jianshe closed the door of his house and took off his armed belt from the wall. Then, from Zhu Jianshe's house, the screams of Zhu Er's child crying for his father and mother were heard.
This beating kept Zhu Erhai away from the kang for three days. Of course, this is a story for another day.
……
Before five o'clock that afternoon, the Yue family's banquet was almost ready. Yue Feng pulled his father to the door and asked softly: "Dad, how about I call my uncle over?"
When Yue Lei heard his son's words, his first reaction was some resistance. After all, he, Yue Lei, was not usually a person who liked the leaders of Liuxu Village.
But after thinking about it, my son’s suggestion was not unreasonable.
Having cooked so many hard dishes, calling more people is just a matter of having an extra pair of chopsticks, and everything is enough.
When Wang Jianguo dealt with the conflict between the two families today, although it seemed like a bowl of water was on the surface, Yue Lei knew that he was slightly biased towards the Yue family.
For example, when Yue Feng slapped Old Man Zhu, if Wang Jianguo didn't say anything and pressed the matter down, it's hard to say what would happen next. It's true that Xiao Tao is holding an invasion knife, but he may not be able to suppress the situation.
Now it's like the Yue family is taking advantage of the situation and has lost the Zhu family's face. Taking advantage of the family celebration banquet, they invite Wang Jianguo to come to the house for a drink. This can be done.
"Okay, you go ahead!" Yue Lei nodded and responded.
Yue Feng and his father united the front, immediately turned around and left the house, heading straight for Wang Jianguo.
