After lunch, Ye Anyian arranged for Fu Zai and Ding Qiu to play in the west room with their copper coins. The two locked the door of the main room tightly before leaving.
Jiang Zhu also told the two young ones not to make a sound no matter who knocked on the door, and to wait until they came back.
Zhao Lizheng's home is located in the middle of the village, surrounded by neighbors, and the villagers are very densely populated.
When the two arrived, the Zhao family had just finished their meal, and Zhao Lizheng's daughter-in-law Qian Chunfang and second daughter Zhao Nan were washing dishes in the courtyard.
Qian Chunfang was a little surprised when she saw two people coming to the door carrying large and small bags. She quickly wiped her hands on her skirt (a modern apron) and came out.
"Mr. Jiang, Brother Nian, why are you two here?"
"Come and take a look at Shitou," Jiang Zhu said. "It wasn't even that early in the morning. Let Shitou suffer this kind of abuse for nothing, and the child feels uncomfortable."
"In that case, we were raised rough from a very young age. Fighting is not a common occurrence, so you two need to make this trip."
Qian Chunfang didn't take it seriously. Her grandson had a tight skin. Besides, the stone didn't hurt him. It was the boy from the Ye family who suffered.
"They are all grown at home, and they are not rare. They should be used to replenish Shitou and Brother Le's health." Ye Annian also said.
Jiang Zhu followed his words and handed the things to Qian Chunfang.
Qian Chunfang refused to accept anything he said, and the three of them refused. Finally, Zhao Lizheng came out after hearing the commotion, made peace, and accepted.
Zhao Lizheng knew that Jiang Zhu and Ye Annian were feeling sorry for each other. If they didn't accept it, they might not dare to speak to him if something happened in the future.
Zhao Li was inviting the two of them into the room to talk. Qian Chunfang put away the things and continued washing dishes with Zhao Nan in the courtyard.
The three of them entered the house and talked about what happened early in the morning, all of them feeling miserable.
After a while, Zhao Le poked his head out from the door of the house and greeted Ye Anyian and Jiang Zhu.
Zhao Lizheng said that he was not upright, but his tone was joking, and the love in his eyes did not diminish at all.
Ye Annian knew that Zhao Le would not be scolded when he came back, and he was relieved a lot.
"Where's the stone?" he asked.
"He's lying in the wing." Zhao Le replied.
"Injured?" Ye Anian's heart sank when he heard this. He remembered that the stone should be fine.
"It's not hurt." Speaking of this, Zhao Lele said.
"It's not because I'm afraid of causing trouble to the old Ye family. I'll let him lie down on the bed first. If Wu Xianglian and the others come to make trouble, I have a countermeasure."
Ye Anian understood his plan as soon as he thought about it, and he thought that Brother Le's mind was probably much more sophisticated than Ye Ansong's.
While several people were talking, they suddenly heard a loud voice shouting from outside: "Zhao Lizheng! Is Zhao Lizheng at home?!"
"You have to seek justice for Brother Song!"
Ye Annian frowned when he heard this voice.
This voice is familiar to him, isn't it Aunt Tianhua's.
He and Jiang Zhu looked at each other, and both of them were a little surprised. Shouldn't it be someone from Lao Ye's family who came?
Wu Xianglian and Ye Chenghai didn't show up, so why was Aunt Tianhua joining in the fun?
There was a lot of noise outside, so the four of them didn't waste any more time and hurried out to see what was going on.
Ye Annian was led by Jiang Zhu. As soon as he came out of the main room, he saw Aunt Tian Hua leading the way, followed by Wu Xianglian, Sun Caihe, the eldest daughter-in-law of Ye Anbo, and Ye Ansong who looked indifferent.
What surprised him even more was that Aunt Tianhua's daughter Ji Fangfang was also among them, standing next to Ye Ansong.
He remembered, wasn't Jiang Zhu what Ji Fangfang was attracted to this time? Did he remember it wrong?
Seeing them coming out, Aunt Tianhua had already spoken first: "Okay, so you two are really here!"
"I saw that the door of the house was locked, and I thought he had done something wrong and ran away!"
"Aunt Tian Hua," Ye Annian glanced at her and said calmly, "We didn't come to Zhao Lizheng's house to look at the rocks. Why did you bring so many people to my house and break down the door?"
"We only have two children at home, Fu Zai and Ding Qiu. What are you doing in such a big fight?"
"Ah...me," Aunt Tianhua was stunned by what he said, and then said angrily, "What can we do? We are here to find you two!"
"Look at what An Song and Amber were beaten into?!"
Last time Jiang Zhu went to the market, she was embarrassed in front of the villagers, and after listening to Ji Fangfang's advice, she took the initiative.
But what she wanted was to make a big fuss about it and make it known to everyone in the village. Then she would step aside and let Wu Xianglian and the others make trouble with Jiang Zhu and Ye Annian.
After all, it was a conflict between Ye Ansong, Ye Anbo and Ye Annian, so she just started it, watched the excitement, and vented her anger.
As soon as she said this, the villagers who came to see the excitement were all in a state of sigh.
At this time, Ye Ansong had changed his clothes. He only had slight scratches on his face, a kick on his butt, and a slight limp when walking, but it didn't look serious.
It was even more difficult to tell on Ye Anbai's face. The stones were slapped on his back and buttocks. And how strong could a child be?
It was very painful at the time, but when I looked at it later, there were only red marks left. I was afraid that I didn't even need to apply any medicine, and it would go away on its own after a while.
Some people muttered: "This doesn't seem like a big deal, does it?"
"That's right," another one said, "not to mention that Jiang Langzhong is a kind-hearted man and has nothing to do with the people in our village; let's just say that Brother Nian, with his sick and crooked body, how can he beat Ye Ansong?"
"When Ye Anbai runs, he may not be able to catch up. Let alone hitting people, he can cough to death even if he raises his hand."
For a while, the villagers were all talking, and they blocked Aunt Tianhua's mouth without even talking to each other.
"It's all because of Brother Nian's instigation!" Ji Fangfang, who was standing behind Aunt Tian Hua, couldn't help but speak.
"Folks, Brother Zhao Lizheng, Brother Jiang! Don't be deceived by Brother Nian! He persuaded Brother Le to hit Brother Song with a stone, and he was not a good thing!"
Ye Anyian:...
I'm afraid this girl is not very smart.
Sure enough, Zhao Lizheng's face began to darken after hearing these words.
"Tian Dahua, Ji Fangfang, what do you two want to say?"
"Uncle Zhao," Ji Fangfang stomped her feet angrily, "Ansong and Anbo were beaten like this, but they all blame brother Nian. You can't let him off lightly!"
Ye Anyian:?
Isn't this girl a fool?
He turned his head to look at Jiang Zhu. Jiang Zhu's peach blossom eyes were so smiling that they turned into crescents.
Feeling his gaze, Jiang Zhu winked at him, held his hand and squeezed his fingers gently.
Ye Anyian:...
Why does your face suddenly get hot?
At this time, Wu Xianglian, who was standing behind Aunt Tianhua, couldn't hold it in any longer. What was this girl talking about? Didn't they come to Zhao Lizheng to seek justice?
Why did she say that Shitou and Le Geer had beaten her two grandchildren?
How can this be done justice? Didn't you see that Zhao Lizheng's face was as black as the bottom of the pot?
"Li Zheng, it's like this," Wu Xianglian quickly squeezed out a smile, "This matter actually has nothing to do with Brother Le and Shitou. It's the conflict between the three children of our old Ye family."
"We have no other reason to come, just..." She held Ye Ansong's shoulders and led him to the front.
"This Ansong is about to have a hospital examination. There must be no injuries on his face. I think this matter happened because of Brother Nian. As long as Brother Nian is willing to pay some money to see Ansong, this matter will be over. "
