Chapter 22 Blackmail

"My son is back, and he brought a big wild boar back!" Jin Pozi said to Cai Pozi proudly.

Cai Pozi curled her lips and said sourly: "How long have they been on the mountain? How can they kill a big wild boar? What does this wild boar have to do with your son? Maybe it was killed by the Gu family..."

Jin Pozi's heart skipped a beat when she heard this. Obviously, she also realized this possibility.

But her son Zhang Hunter had already said loudly: "This wild boar was killed by the Gu family. Mingda said that we who went up the mountain to find people will share this wild boar equally!"

As soon as these words came out, they immediately caused an uproar among the villagers.

Just going up the mountain to find people, you can share a big wild boar that can be seen to be at least 200 kilograms with the naked eye. Who doesn't want this good thing?

The villagers whose families went up the mountain were overjoyed, while the villagers who did not go up the mountain to help find people before regretted it.

Some people even looked at Cai Pozi with unkind eyes.

"You said Niuniu was a jinx and stopped us from going into the mountains. We were supposed to go up the mountain to help find someone!" The villagers lost a good opportunity to share pork, so they naturally did not blame themselves, but only vented all their dissatisfaction on others.

Zhang Guangzong's family, who had previously jumped up and down to stop the villagers from going up the mountain, naturally became the target of public criticism.

After scolding Mrs. Cai, they felt that it was not enough, and chased Zhang Guangzong and scolded: "You are a scholar. You stopped others from saving the child you raised for five years when he got lost in the mountains. You are really a black-hearted person!"

"You are such a rotten-hearted person, you deserve not to pass the exam to become a scholar!"

Hearing these curses, Zhang Guangzong, who always claimed to be a scholar, naturally couldn't stand it.

When his mother had a fight with someone before, Zhang Guangzong, who was proud of his status as a scholar, did not step forward to help. Now that the matter involved him, he could not stand it anymore, and did not care about being polite or not, and directly scolded: "It is obviously you who are afraid of death, and now you blame me!"

Zhang Guangzong likes to act like a scholar, which not only means that he does not like to deal with villagers, but also means that he has no experience in quarreling.

The old ladies in the village are different. Quarrels and fights are an important part of their lives. It is easy to deal with a scholar who is just innocent.

"If you hadn't stopped us, we would have gone into the mountains long ago. You bad guys even harmed our relatives!"

"The old Gu family is so unlucky to marry into your family!"

"Yunniang is really a bad bamboo that produces good shoots. She is completely different from you and your black-hearted mother!"

"Although your surname is Zhang, it is not certain whether you are a member of the Zhang family. I have seen many old women of Cai hooking up with wild men in the past!"

"Yes, yes, everyone in the village knows about the mess between old women of Cai and the bald head in the next village!"

When these old women in the village quarrel, they have no control over their mouths. They say everything and all the bad things of old women of Cai are brought up.

Zhang Guangzong has never faced such a scene before. He was so angry that his face turned red and his neck was thick. After all, he was a scholar and still had the dream of becoming a superior person after passing the imperial examination. How could he tolerate such dirty water?

But people who are not good at quarreling can only say things like "How can you talk nonsense?" and "How can you accuse someone of innocence?".

These pale rebuttals seem so powerless in the face of the erotic scenes made up by the old women in the village.

As a well-known gossiper in the village, Mrs. Chen is also a taboo-free woman at this time. She vividly describes the two or three things about Mrs. Cai and the bald man to everyone: "I saw it with my own eyes. In the grove outside the village, Mrs. Cai and the bald man were rolling on the ground with their bald bodies..."

When Zhang Guangzong heard this, he felt his head buzzing and couldn't bear it anymore. He even forgot the difference between men and women and pounced on Mrs. Chen: "Nonsense, I'll tear your mouth! My mother is loyal to my father, not like what you said!"

Although Zhang Guangzong is a man, he never does farm work.

Chen Pozi is an elderly woman, but she works in the fields almost every day. When they really fight, Chen Pozi doesn't need anyone's help, and she can hold down Zhang Guangzong by herself.

When she was beating people, she was still using her expertise, shouting to everyone: "You all saw it, Zhang Tongsheng flirted with me! He is a scholar, but he actually plotted against me. Seeing that I am pretty, he was beastly to me in public!"

Zhang Guangzong was going crazy after hearing such nonsense.

He was only thirty years old, and Chen Pozi was already over fifty. Because of years of working in the fields, Chen Pozi's face was full of ravines, and most of her hair was gray. She looked older than his mother Cai Pozi.

Zhang Guangzong felt that even if he was hungry, he would not fall in love with such a country old woman!

The reason why Chen Pozi dared to be so shameless and didn't care about her reputation at all was very simple, because her whole family was like this.

There was no scholar in her family, and compared to a good reputation, her family cared more about the benefits they got.

Chen Pozi's husband's surname was Liu, which was also the largest surname in Qingshui Village.

Chen Pozi's family was a well-known rogue family in the village. After seeing Chen Pozi and Zhang Guangzong fighting, they rushed up to help immediately. The two tall and strong men directly lifted Zhang Guangzong up.

Of course, during this process, the Liu family often touched Zhang Guangzong, deliberately kicking or pinching him, making Zhang Guangzong unable to express his pain.

"You are so brave, you dare to belittle my mother in broad daylight! If you, the Zhang family, don't give us an explanation for today's matter, I will go to the county to make trouble in front of your classmates and argue with them Tell me what you are!" the Liu family said angrily.

When Zhang Guangzong heard this, he immediately struggled violently, but the two strong men of the Liu family were not vegetarians. They held him down tightly, unable to move at all.

"With so many pairs of eyes watching, how can you have the nerve to talk nonsense! Patriarch, the Liu family is bullying me, you have to make the decision for me!" Zhang Guangzong shouted to the head of the Zhang family.

Patriarch Zhang was not too upset at this time.

Earlier when Granny Cai had a fight, Patriarch Zhang got scratched by the old ladies. Now his face was burning with pain. Granny Cai was still being held down. Zhang Guangzong started fighting with others again. He tried to break up the fight as if he was rushing to the scene, making a fuss. Half a day's work was all in vain.

But no matter how troubled he was, for the sake of Zhang Guangzong, the only scholar in the clan, Patriarch Zhang gritted his teeth and looked at Patriarch Liu who was standing aside.

Patriarch Liu also had a headache when he saw Mrs. Chen and his family. This was a notoriously rogue family among the Liu clan, and no one in his family dared to provoke them.

Of course, Patriarch Liu knew that Mrs. Chen's family was causing trouble today, but if he dared to confront this family, he, the patriarch, would definitely be troubled by them in the future.

Patriarch Liu rolled his eyes and immediately looked like he had a headache. He covered his head and said, "I'm old and confused. I don't know what just happened. I'm very dizzy. Please help me go back and rest." "

Patriarch Zhang was so angry that he deliberately organized the Zhang people in the village to unite to fight against Mrs. Chen and her family.

However, Zhang Guangzong didn't have a good reputation in his family. His eyes were higher than his head, and he barely showed his nose to others. People named Zhang didn't like him very much, so even if the clan leader called for him, it would be of no use.

Before Patriarch Zhang could come up with a countermeasure, the Liu family had already begun to make demands: "Today, Zhang Guangzong is frivolous with my mother. If we don't have thirty taels of silver, we will never end it with him!"
