Chapter 883 Extreme joy leads to sorrow (3 updates
Grandma Zhang was anxious to find a wife for her son. She asked people everywhere to find out who had a suitable eldest daughter or a woman who was married without children. Recently, she finally found something. The third child who sold pork in a neighboring county found a man in his thirties on the street. It is said that a girl who is 30 years old has not gotten married until she is in her late thirties.
The third child in her family had made an agreement with the matchmaker to bring the young girl to the Zhang family's house in Meicun tomorrow to see each other. Grandma Zhang was very excited, thought about it, and went to Zhang Poluo's house with her head held high.
Zhang Laosan and his mother-in-law were at home to help guard the sun valley. When they saw the Zhangs coming to the house, they were not warm and didn't show any dislike. They just gave her a bench to stay.
Zhang Laosan and his wife didn't ask why they came to visit. Grandma Zhang couldn't sit still and directly said the reason for her visit: "They are from Zhang San's family. My youngest will accompany the matchmaker to bring the girl to our house tomorrow. You can help me go there tomorrow at noon." Come with us.”
"I don't know how to talk. I can't do this kind of thing with guests. You can find someone else."
Grandma Zhang San declined politely. Who wants to eat from the Zhang family? If she eats a meal, the Zhang family will tell them for a year what good food she ate. Guest meal.
"What's there to say? Just go to my house and sit down to help check things out."
"Don't come to me for this kind of thing. When you asked Zhang Ke for Wu Lingling to be your wife, you said you had good taste. The wife you chose for you is the most outstanding among the young wives. You yourself have such good taste. What do you think is good? No. ”
Grandma Zhang San was not polite when the Zhang family asked her to help them. Back then, the Zhang family were so poor that they were picky about their daughter-in-law's wife. Now that she has a few stinky money in her hands, she doesn't know what she will do. Whoever helps to check the relationship will be unlucky. If they become a good couple, it is the credit of their own family. If something goes wrong, all the fault will be assigned to the person who is responsible for the check. Only a fool will take care of the relationship.
"I..." Grandma Zhang was choked as if she had a plum stuck in her throat, unable to come up or come down.
After holding it in for a long time, he finally managed to speak: "Actually, there is no need to check. After all, he is a member of the same clan as the Zhang family. There are several elderly elders sitting here, so I don't want the woman's family to look down on her."
"You go find other elderly people of the same clan. The Le family will pour the floor tomorrow. We have already agreed that we old people will help light the fire, roast the pig's feet, and wash the dishes."
"You...you guys, the Le family is a foreign surname, but we have the same surname. You can't even tell the difference between far and near, right?"
Grandma Zhang was so angry. She knew that the Le family would be pouring water on the floor tomorrow, so she asked the third child to try to invite a matchmaker to come to the house tomorrow for a meet-up.
"I know who kisses and who doesn't." Grandma Zhang San smiled and said, "I also know that your family may be involved in a lawsuit. You, hurry up and find a good wife for your son, otherwise you will be involved in a lawsuit and your reputation will be ruined. Well, it will be even harder for your son to find a wife.”
"Why should we sue? My family has not broken any laws, and we have not stolen or robbed. Who wants to file a lawsuit against my family after they have enough to eat? You should tell me, and I will see who doesn't like my family and is looking for trouble with my family." Zhang Da Grandma was furious and angrily vowed to find out.
"Who else could it be? Of course it's the Le family." Grandma Zhang San wouldn't be frightened: "You came to Wu Lingling's house on August 15th and used Le Yun's name to scare the Wu family, saying that the Wu family won't compensate you. Just kowtow to the Le family and ask Le Yun to tell you who Wu Lingling's concubine is, and then run to make trouble. Le Yun's name is very useful, right?
You used Le Yun's name to force the Wu family to pay you 600,000 yuan. You won't forget it so quickly. ”
When people found out that her family had taken advantage of the Le family's little short-lived ghost to force the Zhang family to get compensation, Grandma Zhang's heart shrank, she held her neck and shouted: "Let's talk about it, what's wrong? Is it illegal? Can't we call Le Yun's name?" ”
"I don't know if it's illegal or not. I only know that your trouble with the Wu family was made into a movie and posted online. Many people across the country saw it. I heard that many people came to Le's family to tell the story about Wu Lingling. Who is the concubine? You pushed Lejia out to prevent disaster for you. Do you think the people behind Leyun will let Leyun suffer such a loss? "
Grandma Zhang San said cheerfully: "Did you see the helicopter this morning? If you didn't, go to the village committee and ask. You will know. A plane came in the morning and transported a few soldiers to live in Lejia." To protect the young and old of the Le family, we are afraid that someone will come to the Le family to cause trouble.
Also, not long ago, the heads of the city and county police hurried to our village. They were also at Lejia. About ten minutes ago, the officials and soldiers were observing with their big wolf dogs. The terrain around Lejia seemed to indicate that some kind of electronic eyes would be installed at every intersection. I even asked them to sit down, but they were busy with something, so I just said a few words and left.
You are making trouble in the name of Lejia, and you have caused such a big thing, even the city officials have been alarmed. Now they have no time to deal with you. Do you think they will not investigate the reason afterwards and find you? Can't?
Do you think the Lejia girl will still be as easy to talk to as before and won't argue with your family? ”
"This... this... is impossible. We only mentioned Le Yun's name, and we didn't use her name to deceive people or rob people. What does it have to do with us?" Grandma Zhang was frightened. Le Yun Her name is useful. They just used the name of the little short-lived ghost to scare the Wu family, and they didn't use her name to commit murder or arson. The Le family wouldn't really sue them, right?
"I don't know about this either, so I advise you to help you find a good wife as soon as possible, lest Xiao Lele comes back to settle the score with you one day, you will lose all your dignity, and Zhang Ke wants to get a wife It’s even harder.”
"..." Grandma Zhang opened her mouth and was speechless. She was still in the mood to sit down. She said she wanted to go home to help Zhang Ke pick sweet potatoes and left quickly.
After coming out of Zhang Laosan, Grandma Zhang had no intention of looking for the elderly members of the Zhang family to help her at home. She hurried to the village committee. She originally wanted to borrow the name of the buyer to find out, but she thought about it and walked to the street. As expected, she saw two public cars parked on the street at the entrance of the village, which meant that Zhang San's family had not lied to her, so she hurried back to the village.
Taking another road back to the village, not far from home, she saw from a distance that Village Chief Zhou and some people were walking towards the main road from a side road. Grandma Zhang hurriedly avoided it and waited for the people to pass by. Looking around again, I really saw a big dog, people in green clothes, and people in police uniforms.
She was so worried that she hurried home and felt confused. What should she do now? I made an appointment to come tomorrow. If I really come, what if I meet a villager and say something, will I become a prostitute again?
The more Grandma Zhang thought about it, the more uneasy she became. When she got home, she didn’t have the time to think about what tricks she would do tomorrow to make lunch look richer and more varied so that the family would look good. She was thinking hard about how she could hide things about the Le family from the matchmaker and the woman tomorrow. .
They were divorced. After Zhang Ke lost his wife, he was the only laborer in the family. When he had a wife, he was still the only laborer. Wu Lingling did not do heavy work at home. She only cut vines, picked potatoes, dug sweet potatoes, and picked them back. Household and so on are all his work.
After harvesting the late rice, my mother was busy looking for someone to be a matchmaker for her. Zhang Ke worked silently, cutting sweet potato vines, drying the ground, and digging again. After a few days in the ground, it was finally almost finished.
That day, I dug sweet potatoes in a field very close to the village. I waited for the sun to hit the ground to dry the dew. I dug it at about ten o'clock in the morning. I dug it for a while in the afternoon before finishing it. Then I moved it home.
During the first and second moves, I didn’t see my mother, and I didn’t know where she went to chat with someone. Zhang Ke didn’t care. When I moved home for the third time, I saw my mother sitting in the main room of the house and sighing. It was very strange: "Mom , what happened to you?”
Grandma Zhang was helping to pick sweet potatoes. She sorted out the good ones and put them in the cellar. She put the smaller ones aside to feed the pigs. She was so worried that she sighed as she picked them.
When he saw his son, he said with a sad face and a sigh: "Xiao Ke, tell me, will the Yueqing family really sue us and ask us to take legal action?"
"Why do the good Yueqing family want to sue us?"
Hearing topics related to the Yueqing family, Zhang Ke felt uncomfortable. What happened to the Leqing family to cause trouble for his family? Could it be that he felt that his life was not miserable enough now?
He had very complicated feelings about the Le family. Let's call it hate. At least Le told him about Wu Lingling, so that he no longer had to help others raise wild animals, and none of his property fell into the hands of anyone who had nothing to do with it.
Let's just say I don't hate him. The man surnamed Le revealed Wu Lingling's story, which caused him to lose face. He was even scolded behind his back for being unfilial, saying that he was a useless soft-eared father who only listened to his wife's bedside manners.
The fact that his own father died of vomiting blood has become a hurdle that Zhang Ke can't get over. Every time he thinks about it, he feels cold all over his body. He hates himself for being blind, unable to tell the truth from falsehood, and being deceived by Wu Lingling, which makes his father mad to death.
"It's not a matter of us seeking compensation from the Wu family. It's a big deal."
Grandma Zhang was so worried that she went to the Wu family to cause trouble. She used Le Yun's name to force the Wu family to pay money. She was also spread by some meddlesome people. Now many people know that someone is coming to the village to look for Le Yun. The state department They told their son about sending someone to protect the Le family, fearing that the Le family would sue them later and damage Le Yun's reputation.
Zhang Ke listened in silence, as if he was useless, and said in a sullen voice: "They want to sue, let's compensate them. Under normal circumstances, we can only ask the Wu family to compensate one or two hundred thousand, which is more." The hundreds of thousands that came out were obtained using Le Yun’s name, so we should pay the Le family money that we don’t deserve.”
"Ah, what did you say? Pay it all to the Le family?" Grandma Zhang was so frightened that she almost fell off the bench. She paid the money to the Le family. What else do they have?
"No compensation, Mom, do you and your sister want to go to jail? If you don't want to go to jail, stop bragging about how much gift money you want to give to the woman's family. You won't be able to get it by then, and there will be no place to put your face. If you use it to get your wife back, then If the Le family really wants to sue us, my wife will still run away, and then we will lose both our lives and our wealth.”
Zhang Ke was very irritable. He poured the sweet potatoes out of the basket and went to pick the sweet potatoes from the field with a sullen face. He was in a bad mood and had no energy. For him, he had no hope in life now. He just spent a day as a monk ringing the clock.
Grandma Zhang was choked to death. Tears flowed down her face as she thought that the hundreds of thousands of dollars she had spent before she could go into someone else's pocket. What kind of evil had she done? Why was she so unlucky?
