Chapter 68: Pointing at the nose

Under Old Lady Bai and Mrs . Liu’s sharp gaze, the mother and daughter carried the bamboo basket on their back and left the courtyard step by step . Outside the courtyard was the main road of the village . The houses of the big families were built near the main road . It was more convenient for them to pull their harvested crops with the ox cart .

It was early in the morning, but many villagers were already carrying their farm tools to the fields outside the village . So, they saw the tragic situation of the mother and the daughter and they stopped to ask .

“Zhi’er, you both look like this, why did you come out?”

Bai Zhi said with redden eyes: “There are no wild vegetables at home . Grandmother asked us to dig wild vegetables . Uncle, thank you for your concern, but we must go now . Otherwise, they will punish us if we came back late . ” Bai Zhi was originally thin, her thin face full of bruises, coupled with the tears on her beautiful eyes, her appearance became more pitiful .

Seeing how the mother and child walking with difficulty, the villagers sighed and shook their heads: “What a good child . How can this Bai Family be so cruel?”

“Yes, you’re right . That family is so lazy, no one can work seriously . Only that mother and child do the work in the field and inside the house . But in the end, they become like this!”

“It all thanks to Zhao Lan’s long patience . If it was another woman, I’m afraid that woman already left the Bai Family and find another good family . Why would you stay with the Bai Family who only knows the bad practice in life?” “

“Leave? It’s only easy for you to say that . If Zhao Lan is gone, what do you think will happen to Zhi’er? Do you think Zhi’er will have a better life than today in that Bai family?”

Mrs .  Zhang just came back from the river, after washing their clothes . When she heard the villagers’ comments and saw them looking at her with strange eyes . At that moment, her heart was on fire . Although she was part of the Bai Family . And also didn’t give Zhao Lan a face . She didn’t unscrupulously bullied Zhao Lan like her mother-in-law and sister-in-law . She never used her hand to slap or hurt Bai Zhi . But now, she was also branded notorious, just because she was a member of the family . This event really made her suffocating .

Mrs . Zhang glared at the villagers and walked back home with her tub . But as soon as she entered the gate, she scolded Bai Erzhu, who was stretching out in the courtyard: “You really know nothing . You only know how to eat and sleep . Do you know what time is it now? Everyone in the village now finished working in the field . They were all now going back home . ”

Bai Erzhu was scolded right on his face .  Is this woman sick? Why is she scolding me as early as this morning?

“Why are you staring at me? Did I say something wrong? I must be really blind for marrying a man like you!”

Although Bai Erzhu and Mrs . Zhang’s were not really fond of each other, they rarely quarrel . Mrs . Zhang temper was very different from Mrs . Liu . She was not the kind of person who likes to care about every issue .

Today, because of Mrs . Zhang sudden scolding, Bai Erzhu was completely dumbfounded . He doesn’t know what kind of wind pa.s.sed by .

“My wife, you can scold people if you want, but can you at least tell me why are you getting angry? You shouldn’t scold me for no apparent reason . ”

Mrs .  Zhang coldly sneered and throw the tub in her hand . She put her hand on her waist and pointed her finger at Bai Erzhu: “You don’t know why? I can see that you really don’t know anything . Your wife was pointed fingers by the villagers right under her nose, but where are you? Are you even a man? Why do you always let your wife do the work? Why don’t you think of a way to earn money? Why do you always let me return to our home to borrow foods? Do you think I still have a face?”

Bai Erzhu understood things by now . It turned out that she was wronged outside, so she came back and let out her anger at him .

“Who dares to point their fingers on your nose? Tell me, I’ll scold them back for you . ”
