[4] Bullying the small with the crowd
The tear that was pushed down from the sky was so hard that she was holding her eyes were flowing out of her eyes. She didn't believe that her father would leave her behind.
"My father will pay back your money, and my father will definitely come back."
The woman heard Xinghua say this, put her little clothes in her pocket and snorted coldly: "What are you back? Your father doesn't want you anymore. She left you alone at home and ran away by herself." Then she said to the villagers: "He ran away and his daughter. The village next door has come to find Daguang and ask Xinghua to go to be a child bride. We send Xinghua over there, so we have money."
Some villagers followed suit and said, "Yes, village chief, this is a way."
Xinghua sat on the ground, her eyes full of horror.
When the village chief heard the villagers' words, it was really too much and interrupted the group of people who came to collect debts: "It's enough, what era is it, what kind of child brides, it's your life. Selling someone's daughter is going to be in prison. Da Guang just went out in the middle of the night, so you ran to their house to find someone."
"It's better to come back, but who will raise a money-losing product if you don't come back?" Someone said unconvincedly.
A villager shouted in the main hall: "There are a few meat pies on the stove, which should be left for the apricot blossoms by Daguang."
When Erlaizi heard the word "meat pie", he looked like stars and couldn't wait to squeeze out the house, wanting to try it out.
As the head of a village, I also feel that everything Daguang does is like running. Everyone knows that his family is so poor that he eats so well these two days, but no matter how you look at it, it feels like saying goodbye to Xinghua.
"Wait first, see if Da Guang comes or not, we will call the police if he doesn't come." The village chief said rationally.
"When that time, Da Guang would have run away." The woman in the apricot flower clothes protested in a low voice.
"You are the village chief, I am the village chief, I said I'll wait." The village chief shouted loudly and left Wu Daguang's house first.
Xinghua stared at the stolen clothes, in someone else's pocket, and wanted to snatch them, but she didn't dare.
The woman covered her pocket and grabbed the little clothes she snatched: "What do you think about the money you owe? Your family has enough money to buy several pieces of clothes. If your father doesn't come back, he will sell you."
Xinghua trembled all over and dared not protest.
All the villagers went home and left Er Laizi to guard Xinghua. Er Laizi stuffed the food that Wu Daguang left for Xinghua for the day into his mouth.
Wu Daguang pulled the cart and walked on the mountain road, sneezing several times.
He didn't dare to rest any longer along the way. Before dawn, Wu Daguang arrived at the market in the neighboring town early, placed tables and chairs, set up a simple Shilixiang brand, and raised the fire. The soup in the pot was filled with fragrance.
Seeing that it was still early, Wu Daguang put down a few bowls of noodles and served several bowls of bowls to several stall owners next door. In order to get to a morning market, they basically come here hungry in the morning. It is not easy to make a living. Multiple friends are better than multiple enemies.
When it dawned, more people came to the market. Wu Daguang discovered that the market in this town was much larger than the town he was in.
Faced with the unique big bone soup, Wu Daguang's business is endless.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Wu Daguang's noodle stall closed the stall early and set out to go home. When he passed by a candy stall, he thought of the pitiful appearance of apricot blossoms, Wu Daguang bought 50 cents of candy.
The journey home was much lighter and faster. It took only four hours to return to the village.
It was hot in summer, and Wu Daguang appeared at the entrance of the village with the sun. When the villagers who were enjoying the coolie at the entrance of the village saw Wu Daguang back, their eyes were so big that they were all staring.
"Da Guang is back."
"You have discovered your conscience, and you still know how to come back."
"Da Guang, didn't he run away? Why did he come back?"
Wu Daguang was confused and couldn't understand what they were talking about.
Since he was not welcomed, Wu Daguang didn't say anything and took the cart home alone.
From a distance, I saw the wooden sticks scattered on the ground on the fence gate of my house. I was so dilapidated that Er Laizi sat leisurely under a pear tree in the yard to enjoy the cool air.
"Apricot blossoms." Wu Daguang shouted into the room.
With a shout, Er Laizi was so scared that he almost fell to the ground.
From the house, the thin and pitiful Apricot blossom with tears ran out. When Xinghua saw her father coming back, she accelerated her small steps. All the grievances came to her heart and rushed towards her.
"Dad, I know you will come back, I know you will come back."
Wu Daguang greeted Xinghua, hugged her in his arms, patted Xinghua's back, and comforted her: "Silly, Dad is going to buy you candy."
Wu Daguang let go of the apricot blossoms in his arms and took out a few candies he bought from his pocket.
Xinghua went to pick it up with both hands, and Wu Daguang found that Xinghua had several scratches on her hands. He looked at Xinghua's arms and knees and was bleeding.
"How did it happen?"
Xinghua whimpered and pointed at Erlaizi in the yard: "It was him who made it. He also snatched the 30 cents of Xinghua and ate all the cakes in our family. Last night, many debt collectors came to our family. They said that their father ran out to hide from the debt and did not want the apricot flowers. They said that they wanted to sell the apricot flowers. An aunt took away my new clothes, and she couldn't bear to wear the apricot flowers."
The apricot blossoms sobbed harder and more, as if they were greatly wronged.
Wu Daguang stuffed candy into Xinghua's pocket and looked at Erlaizi in the village.
Er Laizi disagreed. Wu Daguang is a coward who can be bullied by everyone in the village. In the past, he didn't bully him every day, so he didn't even dare to let go of a single fart.
"What, I just robbed your daughter of 30 cents, and I also ate your pancakes. What can you do to me?"
"Xinghua entered the house." Wu Daguang said, Xinghua went into the house obediently.
Wu Daguang picked up the sticks from the scattered fence gate, held them in his hand, and approached Erlaizi step by step.
Er Laizi saw Wu Daguang like this for the first time, and his eyes were filled with a coldness that did not belong to Wu Daguang. When did this guy become so brave?
"What do you want to do?"
Wu Daguang approached Er Laizi, raised his hand and hit Er Laizi with a stick.
"Ao." Erlaizi screamed in pain and ran out of Wu Daguang's house.
Wu Daguang didn't want to give up, so Er Laizi ran in front, and he chased after him, chasing straight to the village chief's house, surrounding many villagers along the way.
The village chief was watering the vegetable field in the yard, and when he saw Erlaizi shouting, "Help." He ran in.
"What are you doing?" The village chief snatched the two of them, and Er Laizi hid behind the village chief, who separated Er Laizi and Wu Daguang.
Wu Daguang pointed to the Erlaizi behind the village chief: "If you have sex, don't be afraid." Then he said politely to the village chief: "In the middle of the night, this kid took the people from the village to my house to evade debts. Is it a group of adults who bullied a child? Is it a matter for people to do?"
Wu Daguang deliberately did not say that he was the village chief. After all, he was the village chief. Although he was directed to everyone, he did not dare to do anything that was against humanity. To put it bluntly, he would definitely keep the position of village chief.
"You are not evading debts. Then what did you do in the middle of the night? You owe so much foreign debt. Who knows if you will run away?" Erlaizi felt that the village chief supported him and spoke toughly.
