Reborn in 1974, crying with red eyes while hugging her rough husband

Chapter 40 The village chief really swallowed everyone's money

Aunt Li, who had been helped by Shen Zhizhu, stood in front of Shen Zhizhu and spat on the ground.

"Bah! I think you are the one who wants to put the blame on Xiaozhu and Haonan. I think you are just taking revenge on Xiaozhu for asking everyone to study with Du Manjun, so you crossed out the names of these two people and didn't report it to the school."

Aunt Li gestured with her hands and described vividly what happened last night.

"You may not know this yet, but yesterday when Xiaozhu and his wife came back from the city, Du Manjun and Shen Aiqiu stopped them and acted like a nice person. They both knew that Xiaozhu was not on the list, but they still came over to ask Xiaozhu and his wife if they were in school and what the school atmosphere was like. Xiaozhu was smart and made them speechless. Today, the village chief asked everyone to pay for tuition. How could it be such a coincidence?"

Then she and her daughter and son showed off to everyone as if they had gotten something good.

"Xiaozhu and Haonan have already been admitted to two schools in the city. They are the best schools in the city. How can they lie? They study until late at night every day, and get up as soon as the rooster crows the next day to continue studying. Do these two excellent children need to spend time to take revenge on you? It's ridiculous!"

what?

The two of them went to school in the city.

Du Zai De was dissatisfied. Why could these two people go to school in the city? It seemed that the villagers were bewitched by them.

He felt regretful in his heart. If he had known earlier, he would not have crossed their names off the list. He would have let the two of them go to the school in the next village together with everyone else.

There wouldn't be so much to do.

"These two kids are really good at this city school."

"You won't lie or take revenge if you study in the city? Comrade Shen Zhizhu, have you all forgotten how she chopped people with an axe and how she bullied us father and son at the last meeting? Humph, I think she deliberately led you astray so that you could come here to cause trouble and vent her anger."

Du Zai De tried to continue to confuse everyone and shift the focus to Shen Zhizhu's personality, but he didn't expect that the truth of the matter was very simple.

Xu Haonan listened to it for a while.

"To find out the truth, we can just go to any school and ask. Village chief, why don't we go to the school and confront them together?"

"Yeah, let's go there, everyone."

"Let's go, let's go now."

Faced with everyone's urging, Du Zai De took a step back, a little sweat appeared on his forehead, and his expression no longer had the previous arrogance.

Eyes wandering.

Aunt Li pointed her finger over and turned her head to speak to the people around her.

"Look at the village chief's expression. Is he afraid to go with us? Is he worried that the matter will be exposed? It would be better for him to return the money immediately, so that no one will be embarrassed when the situation becomes serious."

Aunt Li's words were supported by everyone, and they all asked him to return the money.

Du Zaide wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve. He was extremely panicked, but he still kept up a calm face.

"It's not that I don't want to go with you. Manjun will be back soon and I have to cook for him."

Some people were shocked

"How old is your son? You do the farm work, take care of the chickens and ducks at home, and even eat ready-made meals?"

"My child, at the age of seven, can cook for me and bring it to the fields. I never thought that."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you guys are raising him like a young master."

Children in rural families become independent early in life. Many of them start helping with housework from a young age. The younger ones stay at home to look after the house, or go to the fields to deliver meals, or sweep the floor and feed the chickens at home.

When I was older, I would help with cooking.

Everyone found it incredible. They thought that Du Manjun's hands were better maintained than most people, but they just thought it was because he spent most of his time reading and did less work.

I didn't expect that nothing would be done.

Shen Zhizhu couldn't help but laughed out loud.

"If the college entrance examination is not restored, he will have to rely on his parents for the rest of his life."

Du Zai De didn't think there was anything wrong with it. The child was smart and motivated, and the teacher praised him. Those hands were used to turn pages and write, so how could they do such rough work?

"What do you know? My family doesn't make money from these things. What's wrong with letting my child do what he likes? Besides, studying is not a bad thing. The teacher said that my Manjun is a good student!"

Du Manjun, a promising young man, had also returned from get out of class at this time. He saw a group of people gathered at the door of his house from a distance, and was complacently thinking that it was his father who was speaking.

He looked at Shen Ai Qiu who was craning his neck to look at him curiously, a hint of pride flashed in his eyes, and he raised his voice and shouted towards her.

"Dad, I'm back. Have you finished the meeting?"

Shen Zhizhu spoke first.

"Hey, your master is back. Have you prepared the meal? Don't let him go hungry."

Anyone who heard the tone knew that it was a mockery, and everyone laughed out loud at the same time. Shen Ai Qiu and Du Manjun were puzzled. What did he mean? What young master?

They didn't know what they were laughing at, but they could tell from Shen Zhizhu's tone that it was definitely not something nice.

Shen Ai Qiu adopted the behavior of an older sister and began to educate her with strong disapproval.

"Sister, how can you say such things to Du Manjun in front of everyone? You are so uneducated. But you can't be blamed for this. It's normal for my sister to be ignorant since she has not read many books since she was a child and can't even recognize words. Brother Manjun, please don't take it to heart. I will teach her slowly in the future."

Du Manjun also looked like he was forgiving her and waved his hand as if he didn't mind.

"I'm not a petty person. I know Xiaozhu is still mad at me because I didn't stop her from marrying that rough guy Xu Haonan. She also hates me for not leaving her name in the school."

Shen Ai Qiu comforted her with understanding.

"No way, sister, do you still mind this matter after such a long time? But these things have nothing to do with Brother Manjun. How can you put all the blame on you? Xiaozhu, apologize to Brother Manjun quickly."

Shen Zhizhu used his tongue to press against the flesh on both sides of his mouth. He felt that these two people were probably fools. They were always self-righteous, living in their own world and treating everyone else as fools.

"Can you please stop talking, Du Manjun? Your father collected 30 yuan from everyone for tuition, but now schools are offering free education. Did you know this?"

She felt that Du Manjun definitely knew it, because Du Manjun's momentary panic did not escape her eyes.

Humph, they are indeed birds of a feather.

Du Zaide's furious voice rang out.

"Shen Zhizhu, what do you mean? Are you questioning the son of the village chief? The school told me that I have to pay tuition to go to school. My family works hard for the people of our hometown, but you, a woman, always stir up trouble and mess up everyone. Now you want to retaliate against us for the previous conflict and accuse us of something we didn't even know about."
