76 -75: Climbing Over the Wall, Eating a Big Melon

“Ah yo, Uncle Guan, no one’s slaughtering cattle today, why are you hitching up the cart?”

“Hongzi, Hongzi!

How did this come to blows just like that…

Hongzi, I came out for a stroll and found a shovel, does it look like it’s from your house?”

“Hitching up the cart?

It’s just two words, how can you still not get it straight…

I’m not saying this to you guys, all of you aren’t young anymore, why so panicked when something happens?

You’re all less sensible than kids…”

“So it’s just you favouring sons over daughters, huh?

It’s just you demanding money from your daughter to add to your son’s dowry, huh?

It’s just you nearly driving your girl to death, huh?

…

A referral letter?

You think you’re impressive because you have a referral letter?

How come I suspect that your referral letter is fake?

Come on, let me take you to the Women’s Federation to properly check its authenticity…

The Women’s Federation doesn’t care?

When a comrade woman has a problem, it’s the Women’s Federation’s business!”

Outside, two groups of people spoke their minds, each one educating their own, without the slightest impact on each other.

Zhou Xu watched from the sidelines, shocked.

When he used to come and go delivering mail, he always felt that the folks of Ten Miles Team were kind and easy to talk to, and he never heard of them causing any outrageous trouble.

Now it seems he had been blinded!

The local customs of this team could be called the most fierce in the surrounding eight villages!

So…

Sister Lin was sent here on his suggestion…

Zhou Xu wanted to run, really wanted to, at least on the way back to town, he didn’t want to accompany Su Yuncheng.

Lin Nianhe listened to the commotion outside and peeked out from the room.

She glanced at Su Yuncheng’s back and tiptoed, planning to take a wide berth and sneak out to see.

She had given up her nap for melon eating; she had to witness the ending with her own eyes!

Lin Nianhe didn’t get far before she got stuck.

Su Yuncheng grabbed her by the collar with one hand and dragged her back to his side.

“What are you trying to do?” he asked, looking down at her.

Lin Nianhe looked at him innocently, “Taking a walk.”

The girl who was like a little hedgehog just a moment ago had become docile now, her voice soft and sweet, totally different from before.

Su Yuncheng’s lips formed a smile and he told her, “Be good, don’t go out, I’ll take a look.”

Lin Nianhe: “Okay.”

As long as he left, could he really stop her wherever she wanted to go?

Su Yuncheng gave her a deep look and then went out with Zhou Xu.

Here, he couldn’t really let the angry villagers beat Mrs.

Miao to death, even though she was not to be pitied for dying.

Su Yuncheng stepped out of the courtyard and closed the door behind him.

Then he said to Zhou Xu, “Keep watch, don’t let her out.”

Zhou Xu was panicking badly now, feeling this was a good time to make amends for past faults, hurriedly spread his arms to block the entrance, “Okay!

Mission guaranteed!”

Su Yuncheng didn’t hesitate anymore, walking towards Wang Hong, who claimed to go to the Women’s Federation but was holding Mrs.

Miao’s hair unreleased.

Wang Hong and Li Dahe were clueless about what had happened; initially, they blocked Mrs.

Miao only because they thought this sly-looking stranger, with an unfamiliar face, came to steal something.

But then they found out, it was Miao Yulan’s mother.

Wang Hong knew what she was about in no time.

There, regardless of what someone had done, beat them first and ask questions later.

Meanwhile, Li Dahe leaned against the bicycle, puffing on his smoking pipe and advised halfheartedly, “Hongzi, stay calm, don’t hit her yet, maybe this person has some serious business…”

Until he saw the crowd dispersing, Su Yuncheng walking over.

Li Dahe choked on a drag of smoke, anxious.

“Hongzi!

Hongzi let go first!

Let’s hear what the Public Security officer has to say!”

He emphasized the words “Public Security” particularly, fearing Wang Hong wouldn’t hear. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

Wang Hong heard, and saw, but she didn’t let go.

Wang Hong panted heavily and nodded towards Su Yuncheng, “Comrade Xiao Su, what’s going on here?”

As if he didn’t see the bloodstreaks on Mrs.

Miao’s face, Su Yuncheng casually nodded, greeted Li Dahe and Wang Hong, and then said, “She was smashing things up at the Educated Youth Corps, injured Educated Youth Miao Yulan, and also had conflicts with other members there.”

“Right, right!

She even smashed our little stools!”

A crisp voice came from the wall of the Educated Youth Corps.

Su Yuncheng turned his head and saw the little ancestor lying on the wall, with two heads beside her.

Lin Nianhe was clinging to the top of the wall, touching Wang Shumei’s hand with her finger.

Wang Shumei then said, “Aunt Wang, Yulan is almost out of breath; what kind of mother could do such a thing!”

“She’s been promoting the old idea of preferring sons over daughters!”

“Probably has done this plenty at home!”

“She needs to be properly educated!”

“Yes, and she needs to compensate for our little stools!”

Wang Hong looked at the three of them, saw that they were all neat and tidy, not looking like they had been beaten, and felt a lot less tense.

“That stool…

bah, how is that Educated Youth Miao doing?” Wang Hong raised her voice and asked.

Lin Nianhe frowned, looking terrified, “Her back doesn’t have a good patch of skin, and her head is also injured.

Even the slave-drivers in the old days weren’t as cruel as her!”

Mrs.

Miao’s hair was still being gripped by Wang Hong; she had to bend over unwillingly, her head already in a crazy pain.

“You little wench farting nonsense, it’s none of your business if I discipline my own daughter, you…”

Wang Hong kicked her in the thigh, her eyes red with anger and cursed, “Do you even know that’s your daughter?

How could you be so rough on her?

To say such things in front of everyone, I think you’re asking for trouble!”

“Hongzi, why waste words with her?

Hurry up and send her to the Women’s Federation!

Don’t let her stay here and dirty our place!”

“Right, let her squat in the pigsty!”

“Or just take her to the cowshed…

Just not our Ten Miles Team’s cowshed; we don’t want someone here who beats her own daughter to death!”

The aunts were saying one thing after another, looking at Mrs.

Miao with disgust in their eyes.

Being under Wang Hong’s control these years, they also believed that gender equality was a good thing—at least in the Ten Miles Team, there was no damned man who dared to beat his wife, and no unruly mother-in-law dared to abuse someone just because they had birthed a daughter!

These were benefits they had genuinely felt, and even if some people still harbored notions of preferring sons, they did not dare to make it public.

Actually, those who were shouting the loudest were these very people.

Because they had been beaten themselves, they couldn’t let her off easily!

Lin Nianhe watched with interest, a smile on her lips.

Feeling someone watching her, she turned her head, and her eyes met Su Yuncheng’s amused gaze.

His smile was full of helplessness and indulgence, as if he didn’t know what to do with her.

In a low voice, Lin Nianhe said, “I didn’t go out.”

She didn’t go out; she just climbed the wall to watch the conclusion.

Su Yuncheng chuckled softly and replied, “Stand firm, don’t fall.”

Not far away, Zhou Xu watched the two of them talking and silently lowered his arms.

There was indeed no need to block the gate.

Amidst the commotion, Uncle Guan came with his ox cart.

By this time, Miao Yulan had already fainted, with Second Aunt Li taking the lead, along with Wen Lan, to carry her onto the ox cart.

Yu Xiangqin pulled Wang Xue up onto the cart, with a bundle in her arms, which contained clothes for Miao Yulan.

Most people only saw Miao Yulan’s condition at this moment, and witnessing her miserable state, everyone’s brows furrowed tightly.

“Such a sin…

Even if you discipline a child, you don’t do it like this…”

No one knew who was choking back sobs and complaining.
