The mulberry life of a small peasant girl

Chapter 17

In less than a day, the whole Zhangjia Village knew about the fight between Zhao Xiaohu and Er Niu.

The reason is this.

Zhang De was discussing with Nuan Bao how to weed the weeds, when he suddenly heard Xiao Fu crying, he was startled, dropped his hoe and ran towards the sound.One look, it's terrible... Those two children covered in mud were fighting fiercely, and that desperate effort was no joke. He hugged the punching baby, trying to tear him apart violently, but Hearing the other party's "ah" cry.

"Little Huzi, why is it you?" Sensing something was wrong, Zhang De immediately wiped the face of the baby under him with his cuff after speaking, "Why are these two bullies here?"

Immediately, Er Niu was still biting Zhao Xiaohu's arm, thin blood oozing from the wound, "Er Niu, let go!"

Er Niu loosened his mouth in fear, and remained silent in a daze.

Seeing that the tooth marks were deep and the wound was bleeding continuously, Zhang De picked up Zhao Xiaohu and was about to run to Tu Langzhong's house.

Nuan Bao comforted Xiao Fu, and understood the whole incident from Xiao Fu's intermittent questions and answers.

It's not enough to just take Zhao Xiaohu to find a doctor. Er Niu has been punched a lot, and there must be bruises under his clothes. It will be bad if there are some hidden injuries.There is no seriousness in children's fights, and it's not uncommon to see someone who kills someone.Nuan Bao asked her uncle to take Erniu to have a look.

So five people in a row walked to the doctor's house in a mighty manner.

The village is very lively in the early morning. Although the twelfth lunar month is cold, it still can’t freeze everyone’s anticipation for the New Year. Those who kill pigs, grind tofu, and dry quilts under the sun, all in all, the village is full of joy and encouragement.

In contrast, Zhang De and his party seemed out of place.Not to mention that Erniu was listlessly carried by Zhang De, Zhao Xiaohu was also disheveled, Xiaofu was crying with swollen eyes and red nose, someone familiar with him came up to ask, Zhang De didn't know why the two kids were fighting, he hesitated I couldn't answer, so I just took my child on the road with my head down.

When some women saw this, they groaned, and those who knew each other ran to find Er Niu and Zhao Xiaohu's parents.

Nuan Bao caressed her forehead, this is too bad!
Tu Langzhong lived in the east of the village, and he cultivated a little bit of thin land on weekdays, but more often he went up the mountain to collect herbs and sold them in the medicine shops in the city. Hooking up is equivalent to living in the daughter-in-law's house like a married woman.The former doctor taught him the basic diagnostic methods and the efficacy of herbal medicine. I thought he would inherit his mantle, but when his daughter was pregnant, the boy surnamed Yu refused to use the woman's surname to register for the child, so The former doctor only adopted a boy in the family to raise him.The boy surnamed Yu moved out of his father-in-law's house with his daughter-in-law, and made a living by consulting with the villagers on minor ailments.

When he came to Tu Lang Zhong's house, Zhang De put Erniu on the kang, and took Zhao Xiaohu's hand, revealing the tooth marks on his arm.

The doctor saw that the tooth marks were so deep that it was very easy to get tetanus. He ordered his wife to bring a plate of hot water to wash the wound. He took a few hemostatic herbs from the medicine cabinet and ground them, wrapped them in a clean cloth towel and applied them to the wound. superior.Turning around again, he opened Er Niu's clothes. Fortunately, the flesh was only a little red and swollen, and wearing too many winter clothes could resist a lot of force.What's shocking is the bruises on Er Niu's face, which are clearly the marks of fists, which is scary.This injury is not a problem, rubbing it with medicinal wine every day, the bruise quickly dissipated, but such a small baby, coupled with such a face injury, really makes people feel distressed.

At this time, a group of people came rushing out of the door, and the voices of crying father and mother came, and Zhang De was pushed away before he could clearly see who was coming.

"Son... Where are you hurt? Let mother see it, you are so careful." Zhao Xiaohu's mother, Shi Shi, said while holding Xiaohu's arms.

"Ouch, don't touch my place." Zhao Xiaohu quickly retracted his arms.

Shi Shi pushed up the cuff of his younger son, looked at the arm wrapped in a cloth scarf, "Mr. Yu, is my son broken?"

Langzhong Yu shook his head, pointed at Er Niu, and said to Shi Shi: "One of them was beaten and the other was bitten. As for what happened, I really don't know. I have to ask Brother De about it."

Shi Shi looked at Zhang De, Zhang De smiled and said that the fight between the two children was not a big deal.

Er Niu is well-behaved and obedient, and the elders in the village are very well-known, even if Shi is vicious, he can't help but like Er Niu's appearance, but the current Er Niu is not as handsome as before, and he is beaten like a pig's head. Shi smiled at Er Niu and said: "Er Niu, your little Huzi brother didn't hit you on purpose, he was just playing with you. Auntie must take him to your house to make amends. After that, we are still brothers, and we still have to be together. play."

At home, Mrs. Li heard that the young daughter-in-law who was usually close to her said that her son had been beaten. She immediately woke up her husband who was taking a nap, and the two rushed to Langzhong's house together.Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the door, he heard Shi confuse black and white like this, and flashed into the hall with a bah.

When Er Niu saw his mother coming, the tears that he had been holding back all the time were streaming down, and Li Shi who was watching was also wiping away tears.

Er Niu Dad clenched his fists tightly and said to Shi Shi, "My son was beaten like this by your son. If you want to apologize, it's fine? If you want to bully my Han family, you have to ask about my fist..."

Shi took a step back timidly, and saw the child's father standing behind him, "Damn...you don't come here quickly, you want to see me get beaten to death, don't you?"

Tiejiang Zhao had no choice but to take a step forward. This was his baby's fault, and what the mother-in-law said was too harsh, no wonder others were angry and angry, "Brother Han, my mother-in-law can't speak, don't worry about it, this is all Xiaohu's fault." It’s my son’s fault, it’s because we indulged too much, we will pay for the medical expenses this time, and the money for Erniu’s health will also be counted as ours. Do you think this will work?”

Er Niu Dad knew Blacksmith Zhao was a real man, so he didn't make things difficult for him, "Could it be that my family can't afford it? It's just that there must be an explanation for this matter. Why your son beat Er Niu should be clearly explained."

Blacksmith Zhao kicked the little tiger hard with his leg, "Nie Zhan, tell me why you beat someone?"

Zhao Xiaohu was kicked by his father, his eyes were full of tears, and he said wronged: "I don't know...he will hit me as soon as he comes. Of course I can't stand and let him hit me."

Neither of them expected this answer, so they were momentarily stunned.

Mrs. Li didn't believe it, she knew the son she gave birth to, and she was the most obedient, "You are talking nonsense!" Turning around, "Er Niu, tell everyone, is the little tiger going to beat you?"

Everyone looked at Er Niu unanimously, Er Niu lowered his head and remained silent.

Shi Shi laughed loudly, and said to Li Shi sarcastically: "Alas...it turns out that my tiger is the one who suffers, really a dog that bites people and doesn't bark..."

Li's face turned red from Shi's anger, "Ade, tell me, what's going on with these two children?"

Zhang De didn't understand why, he pointed at Xiao Fu and said, "Fu'er, tell me what's going on with them?"

Xiaofu was so frightened that he cried and choked, and only said that Er Niu ran over and pushed Zhao Xiaohu down for some reason, and then they fought.

Seeing Xiaofu crying, Er Niu felt a little uncomfortable, and said to everyone: "It's none of Xiaofu's business, it's Zhao Xiaohu who is bad, and pesters Xiaofu all day, I want to teach him a lesson!"

At this time, there is no one who doesn't understand something. Li Shi didn't expect that her son would fight with someone because of a girl. He was funny and angry for a while, which really embarrassed the family.He simply picked up his son and dragged his husband to go out.However, Mrs. Shi didn't know what to do, and shouted that the baby of the family was really uneducated. She knew how good the girl was at such a young age. In the future, she is not a swinger...

Hearing this, Mrs. Li walked even faster, and in the end it was as fast as running away.

Shi Shi is like a hen that wins a fight, with her head up and her buttocks up to publicize Erniu's deeds everywhere, Zhao Tiejiang sees that this woman is getting more and more troublesome, he drags her and Zhao Xiaohu away.

On the second day, the gossip was like a tornado blowing by, and the whole village took it as a joke. Nuan Bao closed the courtyard door tightly, preventing some gossiping women from entering the house, and looked at Xiao Fu helplessly.Xiaofu, who was in the middle of the tornado, didn't know the danger of the incident, and continued to play with the wooden toys that Zhao Xiaohu had left at her house in the past.
