Chapter 72: Eating Melons And Watching The Show
Wang Wen, Shen Yunlian, and Shen Nian, who was Yun Jiao’s uncle, grew up together and had a very good childhood friendship.
Wang Wen’s personality was always rather strong and protective.
It’s not surprising that he would now hit Shen Cuimei for Shen Yunlian.
Shen Yunlian was not a pushover either; holding Yun Jiao, she said to Shen Cuimei.
“Talking about these things to a child, Shen Cuimei, you’re really going backward with age. If I’m wrong, it’s because you’ve been sarcastic and mean since you were little and never likable!”
Shen Cuimei scrambled up from the ground in a sorry state.
“Shen Yunlian, you think everyone is like you, using your good looks to hook up with people everywhere. I thought you’d marry someone with good conditions, but you ended up with a poor guy and still have to suffer after marrying him. Ha… and you’ve had so many children, I think you’re destined to a life of toil!”
Wang Wen: “Shen Cuimei, haven’t you had enough of being beaten?!”
Shen Cuimei: “Come on, you think I’m afraid of you? I was just caught off guard earlier and you had me pinned down!”
Wang Wen glanced at her sideways: “What, were you kicked out by your man again? You’re so aggressive towards us, but I’ve never seen you be this aggressive towards your own man. If you had shown even a fraction of that attitude towards him, you wouldn’t have ended up like this.”
Shen Cuimei glared at them resentfully. Just as she was about to say something, Yun Linhai arrived.
“Wife, I heard someone hit you, what’s going on?”
Yun Linhai nervously pulled Shen Yunlian left and right, looking her over. He breathed a sigh of relief when he found she was unharmed.
He was an honest man, an honest man who doted on his wife.
This kind of tall young man, who was good-looking, had an honest personality, was what elders liked the most.
“Linhai, you’re so worried about your wife.”
“Aiyo, after so many years, the couple’s affection is still so good.”
“Linhai, do you have any brothers? I have a niece who is good-looking and diligent. Her requirements aren’t high either, just someone as tall as you, as handsome as you, with a good personality, strong, and capable of working.”
Aunties and grandmas of a certain age surrounded Yun Linhai, asking him about everything.
Yun Linhai didn’t know how to answer and just smiled foolishly.
“No, no brothers.”
“It’s okay if you don’t have younger brothers or nephews.”
Yun Linhai: “None either.”
He kept winking at Shen Yunlian, pleading for help.
‘Wife, please save me!’
Shen Yunlian smiled and handed Yun Jiao, who was in her arms, to him.
Yun Linhai subconsciously held her.
“Grandmas and aunties, the child is sleepy, we need to go back.”
Yun Jiao blinked her eyes: Should I feign a yawn then?
Shen Yunlian skillfully began to deal with these people.
Seeing this scene, Shen Cuimei’s teeth nearly shattered, her eyes red with jealousy.
Although she didn’t want to admit it, Shen Yunlian’s life was indeed better and happier than hers.
Thinking of the man at home, who was plain-looking, had a big belly, liked to drink, and hit people, she became even more angry.
Before, at least their family had the status of village officials, and their family was richer than other village families.
Now? They were no longer village officials, and their money was almost squandered by that unlucky man!
Just then, someone ran over and, seeing Shen Cuimei, grabbed her.
“Oh no, Cuimei, your man and Wang Yaozu from the neighboring village are fighting over Madam Zhao!”
What?!!!
At this moment, the surrounding crowd, which had been lively, fell silent. Everyone perked up their ears, paying close attention.
Shen Yunlian, who had been about to leave, stopped and pulled on Yun Linhai’s clothes.
Wang Wen turned around in excitement.
Shen Cuimei’s face flushed, she was so angry.
She forgot everything else and rushed out, yelling “Ahhh!”
“Shen Jiantong, old mother will not let you off!”
Although there was no communication, the others all followed suit.
Yun Jiao hugged Yun Linhai’s neck: “Daddy, Daddy, let’s follow, hurry, hurry.”
Yun Linhai hesitated: “You’re just a child…”
Although he didn’t know exactly what had happened, he could glimpse some of it from what the woman had said earlier.
Yun Jiao wouldn’t stand for it; annoyed by her daddy’s hesitation, she opened her small arms and asked her aunt for a hug.
“Auntie, hold me…”
She looked so pitiful, who could resist?
Wang Wen took her.
Yun Jiao: “Let’s go, let’s go…”
Shen Yunlian said with a wry smile: “Why do you love joining in the fun wherever you go?”
It was the same in the village; she loved to poke her head around the gossipy old ladies and always wanted to join in any excitement.
Yun Xiaowu and the other few were already impatient.
“Mom, I’m going to see too.”
Shen Xiuyuan: “Mom, I’ll watch the cousin.”
Yun Liuliu: “Mom, I’m going to find my brother.”
Yun Jiujiu: “Wait for me.”
Yun Jiao: “Let me down, let me down.”
If the adults didn’t take her, she would go herself!
Alright, now they couldn’t *not* go; they were all slippery like loaches.
By the time they arrived, the place was already surrounded three layers deep.
Yun Jiao, finding the view poor, climbed directly onto Yun Linhai’s neck.
Now she could see clearly.
Shen Cuimei finally displayed the ferocity she used against Wang Wen and the others, shamelessly pulling a man’s clothes, scratching and clawing at him.
“Shen Jiantong, I bore and raised children for you, and managed everything inside and out of the house, but what about you? You dare to cheat on me outside. Was I too good to you? I’ll fight you to the death!”
Shen Jiantong’s face was scratched, and he gritted his teeth in pain.
“Shen Cuimei, are you crazy? You crazy woman, let go of me. Believe it or not, I’ll beat you to death!”
Shen Cuimei slapped him again: “Come on, if you have the guts, kill me and go to jail!”
Although Shen Cuimei had the upper hand for a moment, she was still a woman.
Shen Jiantong was strong and quickly slapped her away.
That slap was delivered with full force, sending Shen Cuimei to the ground. She couldn’t get up for a long time, her nose was bleeding, and her head was buzzing.
Wang Wen and many women from the village couldn’t stand it and helped Shen Cuimei up.
“Shen Jiantong, are you even a man? To hit your own woman so hard, do you really want her dead!”
Although Shen Yunlian didn’t have a good relationship with Shen Cuimei since childhood, she also despised people who committed domestic violence.
Shen Jiantong’s expression was unpleasant; he was still drunk, and his gaze was particularly sinister.
“Pah, this is my family business, what’s it to you? She’s my woman, I’ll hit her when I want to, so what?”
His eyes scanned the surroundings. Seeing Wang Yaozu and that bitch taking the opportunity to run away, he started cursing even more foully.
“Slap…”
As soon as Shen Jiantong finished speaking, a dark object flew and hit him.
“What is this, who? Who threw mud at me? Which turtle is responsible!”
No one admitted it. Another lump of mud flew over.
Shen Jiantong: “Which…”
Before he could finish speaking, another thing flew, and this time it was…
“Aiyo, why does it smell so bad?!”
“It’s cow dung, this time it’s cow dung!”
Everyone immediately scattered, looking disdainfully at Shen Jiantong, who was raging ineffectually in place.
It was dark now, and no one could see clearly who had thrown the mud and cow dung.
