Chapter 958 The Brother-in-Law Who Ran Away From Home
When Li Dayong learned from Li Baoyu that his elder brother Zhao Youcai went on an "expedition" to 46, Li Dayong's face turned red with anxiety.
Li Dayong didn't want to be famous, he was anxious because he was worried about Zhao Youcai's safety.
Li Baoyu expressed his understanding of this. Although he was very scared when he met a tiger, if Zhao Jun wanted to go to fight a tiger, Li Baoyu would definitely go with him.
This is brotherhood!
Now that the elder brother has left on his own, Li Dayong immediately thought of cleaning up his elder brother's ass, so Li Dayong said to Li Baoyu: "You can't say that your uncle went to fight a tiger when you go home."
After instructing Li Baoyu, Li Dayong told Lin Xiangshun: "Shunzi, you can't say it either."
"Hey!" Lin Xiangshun responded, and then secretly winked at Li Baoyu.
...
The commuter train came all the way to the outside of Yong'an Village. When it stopped at the station, the workers got off the train one after another and walked into the village.
"Hey? Dayong!" Ma Dafu called Li Dayong in the crowd, then came over and asked, "Why don't you see my in-law? What's he doing?"
"Brother Ma!" Li Dayong smiled and replied, "Well... he's on duty."
"On duty?" Ma Dafu was stunned when he heard this, then frowned and said, "What kind of duty is he on?"
"Aren't there a few people from the bureau?" Li Dayong said, "My brother is cooking for them and entertaining them."
Hearing Li Dayong's words, Li Baoyu and Lin Xiangshun, who were walking behind, smiled at each other. Han Dachun, who was standing aside, looked at Li Dayong's back and whispered, "This liar is talking nonsense!"
For the time being, let's go together. When Ma Dafu was about to separate from them, Li Baoyu whispered to Li Dayong, "Dad, my Uncle Liu."
When Li Baoyu said this, everyone looked forward together and saw Liu Yunfeng standing not far away looking at them.
"Oh!" Seeing his future in-laws, Li Dayong hurriedly went up to them, saying as he walked: "Brother Liu, what are you doing here? Let's go to my house for dinner?"
This was purely a polite remark. His family didn't cook every night, so who could they entertain? However, they had to chat like this.
"It's amazing." Liu Yunfeng smiled and said: "Liu Mei's mother has prepared the meal. I have something to do here, so I will be back soon."
"Hmm?" Li Dayong was just thinking about what his in-laws wanted to do, when Li Baoyu came over, nodded to Liu Yunfeng, and smiled: "Uncle Liu."
"Baoyu!" Liu Yunfeng smiled at Li Baoyu, and then cast his eyes on Ma Dafu, Lin Xiangshun, Han Dachun and others.
The three of them nodded to Liu Yunfeng, but they didn't move forward. After all, the two families were in-laws. What if Liu Yunfeng had something to say to Li Dayong?
But at this moment, Liu Yunfeng called out, "Dafu!"
"Brother Liu!" Ma Dafu didn't dare to neglect him and hurriedly ran to Liu Yunfeng.
At this time, Liu Yunfeng said to Li Dayong, "Dayong, it's already this time, you should go home with your children to eat."
Li Dayong knew that he had something to talk about, so after saying goodbye to Liu Yunfeng, he left with Li Baoyu.
Seeing that everyone around him had left, Ma Dafu asked Liu Yunfeng, "Brother Liu, what do you want to talk to me about?"
In Yong'an, even twenty years ago, people here respected teachers. Therefore, Ma Dafu was quite polite when talking to Liu Yunfeng.
Liu Yunfeng smiled faintly and asked, "Is Ma Yang home?"
"Huh?" Ma Dafu was stunned by Liu Yunfeng's question. He had worked all day, so how could he know whether Ma Yang had returned home?
But Liu Yunfeng was waiting here and asking Ma Yang, Ma Dafu immediately reacted and asked: "Brother Liu, did my little kid get into trouble at school again?"
"No, it's just..." Liu Yunfeng told Ma Dafu what happened in the morning, and Ma Dafu was furious.
"I asked him to go find their teacher Xiao, but he walked out of the school gate and was seen all afternoon." Liu Yunfeng said, "Just after school, their teacher Xiao wanted to visit your house. But then he thought it was too late to come over, so he let me meet you and tell you."
"Oh!" Ma Dafu sighed at Ma Yang, but he still had to say the polite words, "Brother Liu, I'm sorry for causing you trouble."
"What trouble? Isn't this right?" Liu Yunfeng said with a smile, "It's just that this child doesn't study seriously all day, which makes people worried."
As he said that, Liu Yunfeng patted Ma Dafu's shoulder and continued, "Okay, brother, I'll tell you that I'm leaving, and you can go home too."
"Hey." Ma Dafu clasped his fists to Liu Yunfeng and said, "Brother Liu, I'm sorry for causing you trouble!"
Liu Yunfeng smiled and raised his hand, then walked towards his home. After Liu Yunfeng left, Ma Dafu let out a long sigh and walked quickly home.
With every step he took, anger accumulated in Ma Dafu's heart. When he arrived at the door of his house, he was already ignited by anger.
Ma Dafu opened his door and rushed into the house with the cold outside.
"You're back, Dad!" Ma Ling, who was putting vermicelli into the pot, saw Ma Dafu coming back and asked with a smile: "Are you cold? Huh?"
Ma Ling didn't wait for Ma Dafu's answer, but saw her father running to the west room angrily.
He kicked the door open, and when Ma Dafu saw Ma Yang sitting on the kang with his back against the kang cabinet in a daze, he rushed over and slapped him.
"Pah!"
This slap made Ma Yang fall on the kang, but Ma Dafu was still not satisfied. He stepped on the edge of the kang, pressed Ma Yang with one hand, and slapped Ma Yang with the other hand.
But Ma Dafu only took four lashes before Wang Cuihua and Ma Ling pulled him away.
"Ah..." Ma Yang covered his face and howled loudly, but Ma Dafu was still angry, pointed at Ma Yang and cursed: "You little bastard, why don't you hold it back!"
"What are you doing!" Wang Cuihua stood in front of Ma Yang and pushed Ma Dafu's chest hard, while Ma Ling was also pulling Ma Dafu's arm.
While Wang Cuihua and Ma Ling stopped Ma Dafu, Ma Yang jumped off the bed and ran out crying.
"Son!"
"Little brother!"
Wang Cuihua and Ma Ling both chased, but were stopped by Ma Dafu.
"Leave him alone!" Ma Dafu shouted, waving his arms: "It means nothing in one day, and you still have the nerve to cry!"
"What are you doing!" Wang Cuihua almost used all her strength to push Ma Dafu to sit on the edge of the kang.
Ma Dafu had not finished venting his anger, so he shouted at Wang Cuihua: "I'll let you get used to it in just one day!"
"What the hell, I'm used to it..." Wang Cuihua gave up and the couple started to quarrel.
Ma Ling didn't dare to dissuade her, so she hurried back to the east room, took off her cotton-padded jacket, put it on her body, and then ran out while putting on her hat.
At the same time, Wang Meilan was looking at Li Dayong suspiciously and asked: "What's wrong? Your elder brother is not usually on duty?"
How many married men don’t lie? In addition, Li Dayong is also an old man who has followed Zhao Youcai's example.
At this time, facing Wang Meilan's cross-examination, Li Dayong's face did not change, his heart did not beat, and he immediately replied: "Isn't this someone from the bureau? There is a section chief there. Zhang Guoqing should be there, but his uncle is not there." Now, he has gone back to his parents’ home with his wife, so this is just for my eldest brother.”
Wang Meilan heard that there was nothing wrong with her. At this time, Li Baoyu realized something was wrong and hurriedly asked Wang Meilan: "Auntie, has my brother gone up the mountain?"
Zhao Jun was not in the house, and not only was he not there, but neither Jie Zhong nor Jie Chen was there.
"Ah, no." Wang Meilan said, "Just now they walked past and said that frozen pears and frozen persimmons were coming into the store, so the three of them went to buy them."
Just as Wang Meilan said, at this time, Zhao Jun, Xie Zhong, and Jie Chen each carried a dough bag and walked home.
Suddenly, Zhao Jun was startled. Xie Zhong and Xie Chen, who were walking in front, both turned back to look at Zhao Jun. Xie Chen even asked, "Brother Jun, do you hear what my sister-in-law is doing?"
Hearing the voice calling "little brother" in the distance, Zhao Jun frowned slightly and said, "Does it sound similar to me?"
As he said that, Zhao Jun saw someone staggering towards him.
Zhao Jun tilted his right shoulder, the sack on his shoulder fell to the ground, and then he ran forward quickly.
It was dark, with only the faint light coming from other people's houses around. The person opposite is far away and cannot be seen clearly at all.
When he got closer, Ma Yang saw that it was Zhao Jun and turned around to run away, but was caught by Zhao Jun.
"Ling'er!" Zhao Jun called Ma Ling, but at this moment Ma Yang was struggling in his hand. Zhao Jun grabbed the collar of Ma Yang's cotton-padded jacket, pushed him forward suddenly, and then pulled him back. De Ma Yang bumped into Zhao Jun.
Under the faint light, Zhao Jun saw a person running this way. He hurriedly pulled Ma Yang to greet him and shouted: "Ling'er, please slow down, don't worry, I'll catch him ( děi) is here!”
Ma Ling breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Zhao Jun's voice. When she stopped, the girl bent over and put her hands on her knees, breathing heavily.
When Zhao Jun dragged Ma Yang over, Ma Ling got up and grabbed Ma Yang and beat him. She was also angry, but as soon as she made a move, Ma Yang's tears instantly fell down.
Listening to Ma Yang's cry, Ma Ling immediately stopped, and Zhao Jun was also startled.
He knows Ma Yang and knows that Ma Yang is a very strong person who has never shed tears easily since he was a child.
In his previous life, Zhao Jun took Ma Yang to fight with Rakshasa. Once, Ma Yang got into a fight with three old men because of a big foreign horse, and ended up being stabbed.
Although the wound was not deep or large, it required suturing. But because of his status, Ma Yang couldn't go to a big hospital, so Zhao Jun found him a Mongolian doctor from the Rakshasa Kingdom.
There was no anesthetic, so the doctor took a needle and thread and sewed up Ma Yang's wound.
After needle pricking, stitching, and white wine disinfection, Ma Yang not only shed no tears, but even murmured less.
So when he saw him crying, Zhao Jun immediately felt something was wrong.
"What's going on?" Zhao Jun asked, and then Ma Ling said, "That's right! My dad beat me if I don't go to school well."
With that said, Ma Ling pulled Ma Yang and said angrily: "Follow me home!"
"I won't answer!" Ma Yang shook his arm and broke away from Ma Ling's hand, but was held tightly by Zhao Jun.
"What..." Zhao Jun stopped him and said to Ma Ling: "Why don't you let him come with me?"
"No!" Ma Ling quickly refused and said, "Why are you going to your house?"
"Then when he comes home, doesn't my uncle have to take care of him?" Zhao Jun said: "Come to my house. There is everything to eat and drink at home. After that, he will stay in my house for the night. He will go back to school tomorrow morning. Bar."
Ma Ling thought the same thing. When Ma Yang came home before school tomorrow, Ma Dafu couldn't beat him.
So, Ma Ling asked Zhao Jun, "Is that possible?"
"Okay! Why not?" Zhao Jun smiled and said, "I'll take you back?"
"No need to send it off!" Ma Ling waved her hand and said, "It's just these few steps, I'll go back by myself."
Although it was dark in the village, there were no bad people. It was only three or four minutes away, and it was safe for Ma Ling to walk alone. Furthermore, Zhao Jun still has to take care of Ma Yang. He can't escort Ma Yang to Ma Ling, right?
Seeing Ma Ling leave, Ma Yang struggled to shake his body, and used his hands to pry Zhao Jun's hands, saying: "I won't go with you! I won't go to your house!"
"If you don't go with me, where can you go?" Zhao Jun smiled and said: "Let's go, come to my house to have a hot meal, and then I'll show you the little lynx and the little black bear I raised."
When the two families exchanged gifts yesterday, the little lynx and the little black bear were sent to Li's house, so Ma Yang had never seen them.
But at this time, Ma Yang didn't care about these. He asked Zhao Jun: "Li Ruhai is staying at your house, I won't go."
"What's the matter?" Zhao Jun heard it and asked hurriedly: "Did he annoy you?"
"No!" Ma Yang tilted his neck stubbornly and said: "Looking at him is annoying!"
"Haha." Zhao Jun smiled and said: "Let's go, he's not staying at home."
"Really?" Ma Yang asked.
"Really!" Zhao Jun glanced at Ma Yang and said, "Besides, what's there to be afraid of if he stays at home? You're going to my house, not his."
"Okay then." Ma Yang thought about it and it made sense. The key point was that he really had nowhere to go, so he agreed.
When Ma Yang followed Zhao Jun home, the horse sled stopped in front of Wang Fu's store. Song Benxiao turned around and said to Li Ruhai, "Ruhai, I'll take you home."
"No need, Uncle Song. It's dark, you should go home quickly." Li Ruhai got off the sled with a briefcase. He held the briefcase in his hand and pointed at the store with his other hand. He smiled and said, "I'll go in and chat with them for a while. You can go back slowly."
"Okay, Ruhai." Song Benxiao said, "After that, you should think about what the uncle asked you to do."
"Don't worry!" Li Ruhai smiled and waved his hand. After watching Song Benxiao drive the sled away, he did not go into the store, but walked towards his home.
At this time, a group of women surrounded Ma Yang at Zhao Jun's house, looking at the big slap marks on his face.
But they were not laughing at Ma Yang, but they felt a little distressed to see the child being beaten like this.
But it was his father who beat Ma Yang, so even Wang Meilan couldn't say anything. Only the old lady, as an elder, muttered: "How can Dafu beat a child like this?"
From these people, Ma Yang felt the kindness and felt better.
After the table was set, Ma Yang ate with the women and children in the east room. Zhao Chun first served him a bowl of wontons, and when he handed it to Ma Yang, he smiled and said: "Eat more."
Speaking, Zhao Chun pointed to the chili oil bowl, vinegar bottle, and soy sauce bottle next to him, and said: "Put those in yourself."
At this time, Wang Meilan picked up a few pieces of dried sausage with chopsticks and put them in the empty bowl in front of Ma Yang, and smiled: "Child, eat this, the sausage is delicious."
"Yeah!" Xie Sun nodded and said: "This thing , add more fat, it will be more fragrant! "
"Is it?" Wang Meilan said: "Tomorrow Xiaojun and his men will go up the mountain to kill a bunch of pigs. I told them not to feed the wild boar intestines to the dogs. When we get them back, we will pick them clean and stuff them with some intestines to eat."
When she heard about eating, Xie Sun's eyes lit up and said: "That's fine! After stuffing, we can almost grind tofu. After that, we will make some water tofu, beat some egg sauce, and cut some intestines. ..."
As the two chatted, the women came to the table one after another. As the old lady and Wang Meilan started eating, everyone started eating.
It's not that Ma Yang is useless, but that the Zhao family's meal is too rich. In addition, everyone pays attention to him. Wang Meilan picks up vegetables for him and Zhao Chun serves wontons for him, so Ma Yang eats two large bowls in a row.
"Ma Yang, what else do you want to eat?" Seeing that Ma Yang's bowl was empty again, Zhao Chun said to Ma Yang: "Sister, I'll serve you more."
"No, sister." Ma Yang refused: "I've had enough."
"You must be full!" Zhao Chun tried to take Ma Yang's bowl. Seeing that Ma Yang did not resist, Zhao Chun picked up Ma Yang's bowl and asked again: "What kind of filling do you want to eat? Sister, I'll serve you another bowl."
"Sister, I want to eat oily wontons!" Ma Yang felt that the oily wontons with pickled cabbage filling were too fragrant.
As soon as Ma Yang finished speaking, the dog outside the house barked. Jin Xiaomei, who was leaning against the window, looked out, but what she saw was pitch black.
"Who is back?" Jin Xiaomei looked at Wang Meilan and muttered, "My elder brother?"
"What do you mean your elder brother?" The old lady laughed and said, "Your son is back! It must be your Ruhai!"
"Oh!" Jin Xiaomei laughed, she looked at everyone and said, "This kid hasn't been home for a day, I forgot he was off duty!"
Everyone laughed, and at this time Ma Yang took the wonton from Zhao Chun. After thanking Zhao Chun, Ma Yang lowered his head and sipped a mouthful of soup.
Ma Yang also thought, this is his brother-in-law's house, Li Ruhai can come, why can't he come?
The door of the outer room opened, and Li Ruhai came in with a smile, saying loudly: "I'm back!"
As soon as Li Ruhai finished speaking, Li Dayong's voice came from the west room: "Where have you been? What time is it? You just came back."
After Li Dayong finished speaking, before Li Ruhai could answer, Wang Meilan asked: "Ruhai, have you eaten yet? If not, hurry up and come and eat wontons."
"No, Auntie, I'm done." Li Ruhai responded, and then wanted to go to the west room. He had just heard a lot of strange stories in Yongli, and was holding back to tell everyone.
But when he casually looked into the east room, Li Ruhai saw Ma Yang.
Li Ruhai was stunned and walked slowly towards the east room. When he reached the door, Jin Xiaomei asked: "Where have you been? Whose house did you eat at again?"
Li Ruhai dared not not answer the old lady's question. Just when he turned his head, Ma Yang was glaring at him.
This glare was in vain, Ma Yang retracted his gaze and lowered his head to bite the wonton he had picked up.
But at this moment, Li Ruhai said, "It's Yongli, we're eating at our classmate's house."
Yongli? Classmate?
Ma Yang's hand trembled, and the wontons picked up by chopsticks fell into the bowl, splashing wonton soup all over Ma Yang's face.
I've been busy recently. I pickled sauerkraut today. There's nothing else to do. I'll start adding more tomorrow
