Chương 73: Domestic Violence
Tang Huai took the remaining eight pumpkin cakes. Tang Li and Liu Xiaoyu each had one pumpkin pie. As for the other six, she took them to Liu Shao's house.
Each of the four children ate one, while Liu Shao and her husband ate one each.
Tang Huai asked Liu Shao about Zhang Xiyan's situation, and Liu Shao shook her head helplessly. "Everyday she get beaten up by Zhang Huxiong, and every night I can hear him roaring angrily. During the time I was selling buns with her, I saw that her arms and neck were injured, and none of them were any better."
The first time she caught a toad with Zhang Xiyan, Tang Huai had discovered the wound on her arm, but she didn't say anything at the time.
Later, when she taught how to make buns to them, she would often find bruises on her arms, and Tang Huai guessed that she was involved in domestic violence.
Tang Huai also sympathized with her. "They've only been married a few months and it's still considered a newlywed, yet she's been beaten up by her husband every day. In this society where sons are valued, if she was born with a daughter, wouldn't she be beaten to death?"
"Isn't that so? As we were close to home, I often heard Zhang Huxiong scolding Xiyan for being inflexible, but not long later, he also scolded her for being coquettish, trash, and anyway, h8s words were as ugly as they could be. I wanted to help her, but she wouldn't tell me, so what could I do? "In short, even if Xiyan didn't say anything, I still know that she's suffering."
Liu Shao was in a very bad mood when she mentioned the matter of Zhang Xiyan.
She and Zhang Xiyan could be considered as sister-in-law. They were both married here from a different family, and no matter how uncultured Liu Shao was, she never had any conflicts with her.
She was not happy to see Zhang Xiyan being beaten and scolded by Zhang Huxiong, but Zhang Huxiong had a rough temper, even his family's man did not dare to provoke him, let alone her.
She didn't want to tell Tang Huai about Zhang Xiyan anymore. If she said too much, it would only affect her mood.
The pumpkin pie was very delicious. She wanted Tang Huai to teach her how to make it. Once she learned it, she could take it to the town and sell it.
She only tentatively asked Tang Huai, but she didn't expect her to actually agree and come over in the evening to teach her.
"Tang Huai, you are really my benefactor, you know? More and more people are buying my steamed buns. I've used everything you've taught me. They say that the steamed buns I make are the best in the whole street. Every market day, I can earn three yuan. In the past, when I do farm work, I didn't even earn a hundred yuan in half a year.
Now, I've earned half a year's worth of money in a month. Now, your Uncle Liu got up early to help me out, and he even went to the town with me to sell buns. For the time being, I don't have to worry that Er Yiping will run out of money for her. Tang Huai, thank you! Your Uncle Liu never praises his child, but recently, he has always praised you in front of me, saying that you're a great benefactor of my family. "
They didn't even know how to write their names down. All year round, they never went to the county town to watch others sell buns. They only thought that the buns were delicious, but they were too poor to buy them.
Now, not only could she make buns, but her children could eat to their heart's content and earn money. Although Liu Shao was as gossipy as before, she treated Tang Huai with sincerity.
She was only gossiping and loved to join in on the fun, and sometimes being sarcastic. However, she was not a bad person and knew that Liu Xiaoyu don't have enoufh rice. She even asked her husband to move fifty catties of rice to Liu Xiaoyu.
50 jin was enough for Liu Xiaoyu to eat for a long time, so she gave her sweet potatoes, pumpkins, etc …
Tang Huai only smiled in response to Liu Shao's thanks, "Auntie Shao, you're too polite. You're too kind, saying 'great benefactor', How about this, I'll go back and do my homework. You prepare the pumpkin and flour. I'll come over after I finish my homework."
When Liu Shao heard this, she laughed so hard that even her teeth could be seen. "Alright, hurry back and do your homework. Auntie Shao won't keep you any longer. Come to my house with Tang Li for dinner. There's pork."
"Alright." Tang Huai walked out of Liu Shao's house.
Returning to the Village Head's old house from Liu Shao house, Tang Huai had to pass by the house she previously lived in.
From a distance, she could see Tang Peijun and Tang Youming in the tile-roofed room she lived in before they tore her down.
Tang Huai slowly walked over and stood not too far away as she looked over.
Take them down, take them all down...
Seeing the house she had lived in ever since she was born suddenly demolished, Tang Huai's mood was extremely complicated.
It was heavy, astringent, and sour …
In this house, were her memories. Although they weren't good, they were worth reminiscing about.
But now, her so-called grandfather and uncle had been torn apart it. In the future, this sort of memory could only be formlessly cherished in the depths of her heart.
Things changed, and time passed. Some things, some people, had to be left behind.
Tang Huai let out an aged sigh, withdrew her gaze, and quickly walked forward.
Yang Hongxing, who was cleaning up the broken brick, raised her head and saw Tang Huai.
Yang Hongxing gnashed her teeth and cursed softly: "Slut!"
Yang Hongxing picked up a piece of rotten brick and went down. She muttered angrily to herself: "You little slut, you caused me, Zhixuan, to lose all our faces in school..."
I will have to take care of you! "
After finishing her homework, Tang Huai took Tang Li to Liu Shao's house.
On the way, she met Jing Min.
Jing Min greeted Tang Huai, "Tang Huai, the pumpkin pie you made is very delicious. My grandma ate half of it herself."
Tang Huai smiled and said, "I'm going to teach Auntie Shao how to cook now, so I'll bring some for you guys to make supper tonight."
"You're going to teach Auntie Shao?" "Then can I learn it?" Jing Min looked expectantly at Tang Huai.
"Sure."
"How about this, I have pumpkin and flour at home. I'll go back now and get them. I'll learn while cooking so that my family can eat a lot."
Tang Huai slightly smiled. "Alright, I'll see you at Aunt Shao's later."
After she finished speaking, Tang Huai pulled Tang Li and slowly walked toward the Liu Shao's house.
Tang Li's legs were not good, and Tang Huai had to take her feelings into consideration as she walked very, very slowly.
Because Jing Min wanted to learn how to make pumpkin pie, she ran home happily.
After running a few steps, she seemed to have thought of something and stopped. She turned around and looked at Tang Huai.
Jing Min slightly frowned and muttered, "Why do I feel that Tang Huai has become a lot whiter?" When she smiled just now, why was she so beautiful? "
