Chapter 34
"Wild boar? Ha, if the third aunt wants to help your daughter-in-law get rid of the crime, she should think of a better excuse. What kind of wild boar, I have lived in Xingfu Village for so many years, where have I seen a wild boar?"

The corner of Meng Xiangdong's lips curled up, and he snorted with a sneer.

Shen Yao couldn't help sneering, and started calling Third Aunt again in front of so many people, who opened and closed calling Chen when she came to collect debts that day?
"Yes! Where did the wild boar come from in Xingfu Village!"

Zhuang Man, who was covered in dirt, suddenly roared, but before he could finish his sentence, he was kicked in the chest by a stinky foot, and finally got up and lay down again.

"Master!"

Meng Xiaoqing was so angry and impatient, he ran over without thinking about his body, and cursed at the culprit Shen Yao hoarsely: "Little bitch, you are too arrogant! I, I want to kill you!"

Shen Yao raised her brows: "Sister Xiaoqing, you are still pregnant, don't be so excited, be careful that it will be bad if you move your fetus later."

Meng Xiaoqing was so angry: "Don't talk nonsense! I have been married for two years and finally got pregnant. If you curse me, I will make you die! I will let you go and be buried with that short-lived man of yours!"

short-lived man?

This time, before Shen Yao could react in the future, the Chen family on the side first yelled like crazy: "Meng Xiaoqing! Xiangxi is your cousin, do you just say that about him? Where is your conscience!"

Meng Xiaoqing stared and sneered: "Cousin? Ha, if my father hadn't thought that Xiangxi is a descendant of the Meng family and gave you five taels of silver every year, do you think you and your mother can live for so many years? "

"Xiao Qing! Shut up! Stop talking!"

Meng Xiangdong was about to die of anger, so he quickly scolded his sister.

It's just that Meng Xiaoqing grew up being held in the hands of his grandma and mother since he was a child, let alone his elder brother's words, even his own husband-in-law would not listen.

"Why shut up? The two of them will repay their kindness, not only don't know how to be grateful, but even harmed my husband. This kind of shameless thing should be known by the whole village!"

Liu Genrong also nodded in agreement: "Xiaoqing is right, your father's money was not blown by the wind. If it wasn't for the brotherhood with your third uncle, how could you give five taels of silver to help them every year?"

Five taels of silver is already a lot of money for an ordinary farmer.Meng Xiangxi was sick and had to see a doctor and take medicine every year. This money was not only enough for him to see a doctor, but also enough for the two of them to spend for a year.In this way, the Meng family did not treat Chen's mother and son badly.

Sure enough, after hearing the words of Liu Genrong and his wife, the villagers who watched the excitement immediately started whispering, most of them were praising the Meng family for its integrity.

Of course, there are also some people who are accusing Chen of not knowing what is good or bad.

Wang Cuihua, who was hiding in the crowd, yelled loudly with a shrill voice: "It turns out that the old master of the Meng family gave them five taels of silver every year, tsk tsk, this Chen family is still crying with me all day, saying that there is not enough money for my son Going to see a doctor and buy medicine! How could five taels of silver be enough? Who knows where she spent all her money."

A woman went on to say, "I've seen the old lame man in the village running around here every night. Could it be..."

The old lame man is an old bachelor in the village, he does not do business all day long, and he has not even been able to marry a wife.One is an old bachelor and the other is a little widow. The words of this woman really make people think about it.

Many villagers showed disillusionment on their faces, and they were full of contempt and disdain when they looked at Mrs. Chen again.

Shen Yao secretly glanced at the woman, and remembered her appearance in her heart, and it would not be too late to settle the debt with her in the future.

"Five taels? You said, five taels?"

Mrs. Chen didn't hear those contemptuous and dirty words, and all her attention was on the five taels of silver.

Looking at her crumbling body, Shen Yao felt a little sympathetic, and held her cold hand tightly: "You heard me right, what they said was five taels."

Not one tael, but five taels!

Ha ha ha ha.

Chen suddenly laughed, and laughed like crazy, just smiled, tears came out.

Meng Xiaoqing had never seen her look so crazy, even when Meng Xiangxi went to funeral that day, she couldn't help feeling a little scared.

"You, what are you laughing at?"

Liu Genrong protected his daughter, for fear that Mrs. Chen would go crazy and hurt her daughter and the good grandson in her belly.

Mrs. Chen wiped away her tears, pointed at Meng Changwang who was aloof, and then pointed at Meng Xiangdong who was already pale, with a shrill voice.

"What am I laughing at? Haha, I'm laughing at you, all of you Meng family are wolves in human skin! One said he gave me five taels of silver, but the other turned around to collect debts from me! Brother, I'll call you brother again, Do you know what your good son Meng Xiangdong has done behind your back?"

Meng Changwang frowned, looking at Mrs. Chen and his son, feeling a little uneasy.

"Third Aunt, are you not feeling well, you should take a good rest..."

Before Meng Xiangdong finished speaking, Mrs. Chen immediately interrupted him: "Rest? Why did you let me rest? Is it because I am afraid that I will lose face by saying something that is not good for you? Or is it because you are afraid that you will secretly deduct your cousin's life-saving money?" After the filthy deeds are exposed, will you be cast aside and despised by the whole village?"

Chen's voice was full of disdain and accusation, which made everyone present shut their mouths tightly.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, as if they had guessed something hidden in it.

The bright-headed person even reacted immediately, and a delicate-looking little girl with a deep blush blurted out: "Meng Xiangxi's money was secretly deducted by his big brother? This, is it true? "

No!

Meng Changwang and Meng Xiangdong subconsciously wanted to refute, but neither of them spoke as quickly as Shen Yao.

"Of course it's true!"

Shen Yao took a step forward, raised her chin and looked at Meng Xiangdong who was at a loss: "Dare to ask Brother Da Tang, can you repeat what you told us that day?"

How dare Meng Xiangdong say that?He just shook his head desperately: "You don't want to slander me!"

Shen Yao sneered: "I know you don't dare to say it, since that's the case, let me tell you! Uncle, sister Xiaoqing and uncle both said that you gave my mother-in-law five taels of silver to see a doctor every year, but my mother-in-law and the others only I can only get a tael of silver from the big brother."

Five taels turned into one tael?
Meng Changwang didn't want to believe it, but seeing his son's expression, he didn't have the confidence to reprimand Shen Yao anymore.

Shen Yao curled her lips and said: "Not only that, the first hall brother asked us for more than ten years of money and the money we borrowed for Xiangxi's funeral that day. We will pay back the borrowed money, but uncle There is still a reason to get back the money that helped my nephew, tsk tsk, this really opened my eyes!"

At this time, Meng Changwang really wanted to slap his son to death, almost half of the people in the village were watching the fun, and his son lost all his face.

Coughing, Meng Changwang took a step forward and said, "Since I donate money to my nephew, there is no reason to ask for it back. Brothers and sisters, Xiangdong is young, and there will always be times when he can't hold it back. I hope you will forgive him.

How about this, you don't have to pay back the money you borrowed for Xiangxi's funeral that day, and the house and the few acres of land can be safely lived and planted.Although the third brother and nephew are gone, you will always be a member of the Meng family, and we will not ignore you. "

What these words mean is that they don't intend to collect debts from Mrs. Chen.Of course, he didn't intend to let Mrs. Chen worry about the four taels of silver lost every year.

In fact, the five taels of silver were donated by others, and there is nothing wrong with not giving them.But he doesn't want to spend money and wants to get a good reputation, which is a bit unreasonable.

What's even worse is that now that she knows what her son has done, not only does she not reprimand her son, but she deliberately mentions Chen's house and land. Is this threatening her not to make further progress?
Shen Yao narrowed her eyes, this uncle is really extraordinary!
