Chapter 7: Taking my uncle’s family to catch an adulterer
When Ji Xiaoyue arrived at the Sun family’s door with her aunt and cousin, Old Lady Sun was sitting on the ground wailing.
Sun Lao Er was also rolling on the ground, “Ouch, it hurts so much.”
Sun Lao Er’s son, Abao, was pointing at Sun Gensheng and babbling, “My mother said, Uncle is the most useless, he gave birth to a good-for-nothing. No one will bury him when he dies, he’ll rot in the corner, and go to heaven by himself.”
The surrounding neighbors were all gathered there watching the show, pointing and gossiping.
Sun Gensheng was sitting on a nearby stone, his eyes red, clearly wronged.
When Wang Guihua and the others approached, they immediately went forward and asked, “What happened, child’s father?”
Sun Gensheng was a simple man, and at this moment, he was so angry and wronged that he couldn’t utter a word.
Old Lady Sun pointed at Sun Gensheng and said, “Abao and I were sunbathing at home, and he rushed over and punched my Lao Er. It’s really outrageous, this isn’t over.”
Cuihua, the woman next door, couldn’t stand it anymore and stepped forward, “Didn’t your son call Dahua a slut, saying that her husband doesn’t want her because she’s messing around in the village?”
Cuihua turned to Wang Guihua and Ji Xiaoyue and said, “A family of scoundrels, they’re spreading rumors everywhere, saying that Li Dahai took his mother to the city to enjoy the good life, and left Dahua behind because she’s a slut.
They say she slept with half the village. Well, Sun Erqiang was slandering Dahua, and Gensheng happened to walk by, so he got angry.”
Ji Xiaoyue’s face turned green when she heard this, and she rushed towards Old Lady Sun, grabbing her by the collar, “You old hag, are you trying to drive Dahua to death?
Don’t you know that if you say this, everyone will believe it, and Dahua will hang herself with a rope.”
Old Lady Sun was grabbed by the collar, and she kept mumbling, “Look everyone, Ji Xiaoyue is hitting me! She’s going to beat me to death, this old woman.
Oh my, hurry and find the village head and the team leader to come and do justice for me.
This family is heartless, they forced me to split the family before, and now they’re fighting with this old woman.”
Ji Xiaoyue sneered at Old Lady Sun, “Grandma, you’re really not ashamed. Since you’re not ashamed, then I’ll tell everyone about your affairs.”
Old Lady Sun’s face turned green, and she gritted her teeth, “You little slut, you’re talking nonsense, you’re full of crap. If you dare to spread rumors, I’ll kill you.”
Ji Xiaoyue stared at her, saying word by word, “Grandma, I warned you before, let’s each live our own lives. Now that you don’t want to live peacefully, then no one will have a good time.”
At this moment, Sun Lao Er, who was rolling on the ground, saw Ji Xiaoyue grabbing his mother’s collar, and he flipped over and rushed to beat Ji Xiaoyue, “Ji Xiaoyue, you dog, you dare to hit my mother, I’ll kill you.”
Before his fist could reach Ji Xiaoyue’s face, Sun Gensheng had also stood up and rushed forward with a hoe, “Sun Erqiang, are you not beaten enough? You dare to hurt my two girls, even if I get shot, I’ll die with you.”
Sun Gensheng had always been quiet, but today he was truly angry and had to fight back.
His innocent daughter was tricked by the Li family, and now she was being tricked by her own people.
If Li Dahai’s child was really his, Dahua’s life in the village would have been difficult, and they were still spreading rumors.
“My Dahua helped the family with work a lot before she got married, you called her around, and now you’re spreading rumors.
Do you have to drive our family to death to be happy?” He slammed the hoe on the ground, his eyes already wet.
It was because he was incompetent that they were being bullied like this.
The surrounding neighbors looked at Sun Gensheng’s appearance and couldn’t bear it.
The whole village knew that he was honest and kind, and everyone had seen how Old Lady Sun and her son bullied him.
“Old Lady Sun, although Dahua is not your granddaughter, you can’t say that about her! A family of heartless people, they deserve to be beaten!”
The neighbors pointed and talked, and no one went to help Old Lady Sun and Sun Erqiang.
Ji Xiaoyue pointed at Old Lady Sun and Sun Erqiang, saying word by word, “You better watch your mouths.
You’re just slandering people, who can’t do that? If you keep talking dirty, I’ll go to the village head tomorrow and tell everyone about your family’s dirty secrets.”
She then crossed her arms and said to Sun Erqiang’s wife, “Watch your man! Yesterday, I saw him come out of Liu Widow’s house naked.”
Then she said to Sun Erqiang, “Sun Erqiang, your mother found many stepfathers for you, half the village’s men are your stepfathers.”
“Ji Xiaoyue, you little slut, keep talking nonsense…” Old Lady Sun and Sun Erqiang shouted at Ji Xiaoyue, both of them feeling guilty.
Sun Erqiang’s wife heard about the nakedness and immediately jumped up, “Sun Erqiang, I told you! Why were you naked when you came home yesterday? You went to that slut, Liu Widow, to mess around.”
She turned around and went to the corner to pick up a broom and chased after Sun Erqiang.
Old Lady Sun couldn’t jump around anymore, afraid that Ji Xiaoyue would say something else, she turned around and went into the house dejectedly.
Ji Xiaoyue supported Sun Gensheng, “Uncle, let’s go home.”
Sun Gensheng glared at Old Lady Sun and the others with resentment, then turned and left.
Back home, Sun Gensheng sat at the door and puffed on his dry pipe, clearly preoccupied.
Sun Dahua walked up to Sun Gensheng and pulled her father, “Dad, I’m okay, don’t mind what others say about me. Even if the Li family doesn’t want me, this matter has to be settled. Everyone in the village knows I married Li Dahai.”
Sun Gensheng pulled Sun Dahua, “Dahua, it’s Dad’s fault, he couldn’t protect you.”
Ji Xiaoyue came out and said to Sun Gensheng,
“Uncle, wait until I make some money, settle the matter between your cousin and the Li family, and we’ll leave this lousy village. My cousin is so beautiful, we’ll go to the city, marry a city man, and make them angry.”
Sun Gensheng smiled bitterly, “Marrying a city man, we wouldn’t even dare to think about it.”
But Ji Xiaoyue pulled them and said, “Uncle, give me three months, and I’ll definitely take you away.”
Sun Gensheng didn’t take Ji Xiaoyue’s words to heart, he just thought his niece was comforting him.
In the evening, Ji Xiaoyue pulled Sun Gensheng and Wang Guihua up, “Uncle, Aunt, I’ll take you to get back what we lost today.”
Sun Gensheng and Wang Guihua asked in confusion, “What’s wrong?”
Ji Xiaoyue said with a hint of pride, “Don’t ask, just follow me. We’re going to watch a play.”
The two hesitated for a moment and followed Ji Xiaoyue.
Ji Xiaoyue walked out of the house, then turned back and called Sun Dahua, “Cousin, come with us!”
She said, taking her uncle’s family towards the village warehouse.
There was a haystack in the village warehouse, where wild couples often went to have affairs.
The group crouched down and walked to the outside of the warehouse.
They heard voices from afar.
Sun Gensheng Sheng recognized the voice and knew who it was, his face turned green, “Shameless!”
He cursed and was about to rush in.
Ji Xiaoyue reached out and stopped him, “Uncle, wait.”
