The Siheyuan of the Young Educated Youth

Chapter 9 Justifiable Defense

"You get up too, why are you fighting?"

Zheng Er's wife was still lingering on the ground, saying "Ouch, ouch..."

After hearing what the captain said about her, she felt aggrieved.

At this moment, she looked like a bullied young wife. Her face was covered with tears, and one side of her face was covered with finger marks, and it was obviously red and swollen.

Village Chief Zheng knew her usual shrewish nature too well and was impatient to watch her act.

"That's enough, that's enough, you are grown up, why are you crying over a fight? If you have something to say, just say it!"

Zheng Er's wife sobbed, covered half of her face with her hands, and said nothing.

She is not afraid of anyone. She can deal with her parents and parents-in-law when they come, but she is afraid of this uncle, the team leader.

The captain had been to the Korean battlefield, seen blood, and made contributions. Everyone respected and feared him, and no matter how lawless she was, she would not dare to act rashly in front of the captain.

Now he is as obedient as a mouse avoiding a cat.

After returning home from the big willow tree at the village head in the morning, she thought more and more that something was wrong. The day before yesterday, she only told her husband that she went to see the elm yellow mushrooms emerge, and she went to pick them two days later. That was her nest, and no one else knew about it.

She goes to pick them every year.

So she was sure that it was her husband who told Qi Zhiqing. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She had gone out to patrol several times, but Qi Feifei had gone up the mountain and she hadn't found her. Now she saw her washing potatoes by the stream, so she rushed over.

Anyway, no matter whether the matter is true or not, she has to bear the grudge since she picked her mushrooms.

She thought she was beating up a skinny girl, and she was just trying to scratch her to vent her anger, but she didn't know that the girl was so fierce, and she started to hit her hard as soon as she came up. Men don't kill each other as soon as they fight, and she was caught off guard.

This time she suffered a loss, but her reasons had no basis. She didn't even see the mushrooms. She couldn't say a word for a long time in front of the captain.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, the team leader asked Qi Feifei: "Little Qi Zhiqing, tell me, what's going on?"

Qi Feifei squinted her eyes, looking innocent and confused: "I don't know?"

The captain sneered angrily: "You two are fighting for no reason?"

Qi Feifei said innocently: "I was washing potatoes here, and she rushed over and started scolding and beating me. I was just defending myself. I really don't know the specific reason?"

Captain: You defended well! You even defended the guy's face.

"Second brother's wife, tell me, Xiao Qi, the educated youth, has only been here for two days. How did she offend you?"

Zheng Er's wife saw that she couldn't escape, so she made up her mind: "She and Lao Er are not doing it well. Suck~, there is a big field of mushrooms in my field, and Lao Er ran to tell her. Suck~, she picked them all!"

Qi Feifei:?

Village Chief Zheng:?

Village Chief Zheng looked at Qi Feifei.

Qi Feifei: "Village Chief, you don't believe it, do you? I don't even know who the second brother is.

I went to cut willow branches early this morning so that I could weave a basket. I brought the basket with me because I wanted to pick up some mushrooms if I came across them. I did pick some mushrooms on the mountain above the willow meadow.

Don’t say that the mushrooms I picked might not be the ones she saw. Even if they were, the mushrooms belong to whoever picked them. They weren’t planted by her, so I didn’t do anything wrong!”

Captain Zheng was also surprised by this reason. This was impossible. He had watched Zheng Er grow up over decades. How could he not understand him?

Besides, Zheng Er worked in the deer farm and came back once every few days, while Xiao Qi, the educated youth, had only been here for two days, so it was hard to say whether they had met each other.

He also knew what kind of person Zheng Er's wife was like. He knew she was looking for trouble just because of the basket of mushrooms.

Zheng Er's wife also knew that she was in the wrong, so she didn't dare to vent her anger in front of the village chief. She just said hesitantly, "I didn't hit her, but she hit me hard. I have to pay for her medical expenses, right?"

Captain Zheng was so angry that he laughed!

"You took the initiative to cause trouble, so you should apologize to Qi Zhiqing first."

"Uncle~!" She sounded aggrieved and stretched out the words.

Village Chief Zheng's tone became more serious: "Speak properly."

My teeth hurt just listening to it.

Zheng Er's wife cried, "Then all the beatings I received were in vain?"

Captain Zheng was getting impatient: "Why don't you go to the brigade headquarters and wait until your Zheng Er comes. Everyone, go home and cook."

Zheng Er's wife saw that he was going to lock her up. Zheng Er was at the deer farm. When would he be able to come back?

"I apologize, I apologize, I shouldn't have lost my temper without understanding."

Captain Zheng: "Are you angry? If you have something to say, just say it. You can't throw a tantrum or scold someone. What a shame! Apologize to the educated youth Xiao Qi right now."

Zheng's second daughter-in-law was unwilling to do so, because she was obviously the one who was being beaten.

"Xiao Qi Zhiqing, I'm sorry, I was wrong."

Qi Feifei raised her eyebrows and looked at Captain Zheng: "Do I forgive her? She scolds me as soon as she opens her mouth, hits me as soon as she raises her hand, and throws dirty water on me at the slightest thought. Do you forget about a word?"

Captain Zheng was a bit troubled. That guy was a tough guy. He had been educated so many times, but he knew he was wrong and refused to change. This young educated youth seemed to be a troublemaker too! Oh! It was so annoying!

"Zheng Er's wife, you are not allowed to make trouble again. You are not allowed to make up rumors and throw dirty water without any basis. If you make trouble again, let Zheng Er come back to watch over you, and don't go to work in the deer farm."

Then he said to the people around him:

"If I hear any rumors about what happened today, don't blame me for being rude. The educated youth from Xiaoqi came from far away to participate in rural construction. We should welcome them with open arms and work together to improve production. If anyone destroys unity again, don't blame me for being rude."

Then he turned to Qi Feifei and said, "Xiao Qi Zhiqing, she was wrong in this matter. I have criticized her. If it happens again, I will definitely take care of it for you. You beat her like this, and you have vented your anger. Just forgive her this time."

Qi Feifei: We cannot go against the captain. Captain Zheng is indeed a good captain and I have not suffered any loss.

"Okay, I'll listen to the captain."

Zheng Er's wife: "What about my medical expenses?"

Captain Zheng: "I'll ask the barefoot doctor to apply some medicine on you later. It's free."

Zheng Er's wife wanted to say something, but Captain Zheng glared at her and frightened her back.

Captain Zheng put on a benevolent look and said, "Little educated youth Qi! If you have any problems in the future, just report them to the leader and we will definitely make a decision for you. We will try our best not to use violence..."

Qi Feifei interrupted the captain and said that she would not use violence.

"Captain, I know. I was hit suddenly just now and I was stressed. I will try to stay calm next time. If others talk to me reasonably, I will never use force. This is the first time in my life." He touched his head embarrassedly.

Captain Zheng: I believe you, I am just a fool!

"Okay, okay, everyone should unite and help each other. If you have any difficulties in the future, come to me."

Qi Feifei: "Captain, I'm going back now. I'm still waiting for my potatoes to cook."

Tong Xiaowen, who was standing on the periphery, heard that he could go back, and quickly ran over to pick up potatoes. Those who were watching also lowered their heads to help pick up the potatoes near them and put them into the basket. Fortunately, everyone knew that food was precious, so those who were watching were careful not to step on the potatoes and onions.

Tong Xiaowen carried the potato basket and said, "Sister, let's go back. We are all waiting for you."

Qi Feifei walked back and felt his right palm burning, so he clenched his hands. He used too much strength!

Tong Xiaowen followed behind with a look of admiration on his face.

Before we arrived at the educated youth point, several educated youth were waiting for us on the road, all with excited faces. Some of them had already come back to report on the battle situation.

Baisha: "How was it? What did you say in the end?"

Before Qi Feifei could say anything, Tong Xiaowen said excitedly, "Zheng's second daughter-in-law apologized to the educated youth Xiao Qi, and the village chief also said that no one is allowed to make rumors or cause trouble in the future. If there is any problem, go to him to report it."

Zhu Li: "What about Zheng Er's wife? We don't have to pay her compensation, right?" They all said she was beaten badly.

Tong Xiaowen: "The village chief told her to go to the barefoot doctor and get some medicine. It was just a swelling on her face, nothing serious."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and went back to the educated youth's place to cook. Everyone was looking forward to the mushroom soup.

Qi Feifei was cooking, while Zhu Li and Pan Xiaowen were helping by the side, making the fire and learning the skills.

Zhu Li was responsible for cutting the potatoes into finger-thick strips and chopping the green onions into chopped green onions, while Pan Xiaowen was in charge of making the fire.

After the water boiled, Qi Feifei blanched the mushrooms, then washed them several times to clean off the grass foam stuck on them.

Put oil in the pan, add the chopped green onion when the oil is hot and stir-fry until fragrant, then serve in a small bowl.

Put the potatoes in the pot, stir-fry for a while, then add soy sauce, salt, water, cover the pot and cook for a while until the potatoes are cooked.

Put the mushrooms in the pot and cook for a while, then add scallion oil and MSG and you can eat it when it’s ready.

The method is very simple, and anyone who can cook can learn it at a glance.

During the meal, the pleurotus eryngii potato soup received unanimous praise from everyone.
