Chapter 442
This child is probably around ten years old. He looks very smart, but he only wears patched clothes. His family must not be rich.
Ye Huan asked: "How can I get to Zhang Hongmei's house?"
The child became vigilant: "You bad guys have captured my father and mother, and now you want to arrest my sister. In your dreams, you won't ask my sister to go with you!"
As he spoke, the child whistled and called the dogs back, immediately surrounding Ye Huan and Teacher Zhao.
"You bad guys, you came here for no other reason than to harm us mountain people. If you don't get out, I'll tell Ah Huang and the others to bite you to death!"
Teacher Zhao knew this child.
"Gou Boy, you forgot that I am Teacher Zhang. When I visited your home that year, I gave you two pieces of candy."
"I bother!"
Zhang Gouwa thought for a while, then suddenly took out two eggs from his pocket that he had not had time to eat, and threw them to Teacher Zhao.
"I'll give this to you. Is it worth your two pieces of candy? Who likes to eat your crappy stuff? It stinks!"
Teacher Zhao was also very puzzled. The family was very kind to him when he came last time, and this child even burned the edamame grown in the mountains for himself to eat.
Why are you so upset when you come here today?
So he said very patiently: "Gouwa, I didn't offend you, did I? Your sister won No. 1 in the school's artistic performance. I'm here to give your sister a prize."
Gouwa opened his eyes and shouted loudly.
"If it weren't for your harmful art performance, would my sister be attracted by the village chief's stupid son? Would she be forced to work as a child bride for his family?"
Ye Huan was even more surprised.
The so-called child bride system was abolished a long time ago. Why is it still popular in this place? What's going on?
So he came to Gou Wa.
"Gouwa, my name is Ye Huan. I am the husband of Sister Haoyue who sponsors your sister. I asked Teacher Zhao to lead me to visit your sister."
After saying this, Gou Wa seemed to have remembered something and was very excited, holding Ye Huan's hand.
"Are you Sister Haoyue's husband?"
Ye Huan nodded.
Gouwa said to him very aggrievedly.
"Brother Ye Huan, please save me quickly. Please save my sister. The village chief's stupid son beats him every day and is about to beat him to death!"
Ye Huan was shocked: "What on earth is going on?"
Gouwa cried and told Ye Huan what happened. Ye Huan became furious when he heard this.
It turns out that the saying goes, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, but the water is shallow and the emperor is far away.
Although Duanhunya Village is not big, the role of village bully is indispensable.
There is a well-known local village bully named Bai Dalong. Because he has many relatives and strong support, he has been serving as the village chief these years.
Relying on these, the family bullies other villagers without mercy.
This Bai Dalong also has a silly son named Bai Xiaolong, who is almost 20 years old and still can't find a wife.
Bai Dalong was very anxious. Suddenly, he turned his eyes and fell in love with Zhang Hongmei, a young girl from the Zhang family in this village.
Zhang Hongmei is 16 years old this year and is quite well-off.
Because this place is relatively closed, people in the village generally go to school very late, and most people can't go to school until they are eleven or twelve years old.
Because they were too young to ride this kind of pulley by themselves, the village no longer allowed people under the age of ten to go to school across the mountain since two six-year-old children fell to death.
So it is not unusual to finish primary school at the age of 16.
So he discussed with Zhang Hongmei's father, Zhang Dashan, to give him a gift of 3 yuan to marry Zhang Hongmei for his son.
Although Zhang Dashan is not highly educated, he loves his daughter very much, and naturally he is not willing to push his daughter into the fire pit.
He is the best mason in the village. Although the money he earns in this closed place is not much, it is enough to support his family.
His mother-in-law, Mrs. Liu, was a simple rural woman. With some experience in delivering babies, she delivered babies to pregnant women in the village and supplemented the family income.
Therefore, the couple sternly refused. They said that our daughter is a female literary star who has come down to earth and will be admitted to college and work in a big city. They do not want to get married so early.
Bai Dalong was rejected and became angry.
He went outside a lot and knew more than the villagers.
So he brought two men in uniform over to ask for Zhang Dashan's construction qualification certificate.
As a private mason, Zhang Dashan only helped build walls for fellow villagers. There was no such thing as building a house. Besides, even if he wanted to take the exam, he couldn't afford the high fees.
So without any suspense, he was arrested by these people on the grounds of illegal construction, and it was said that he would be sentenced to three years in prison.
This matter was not over yet. Soon after, Zhang Hongmei's mother also became involved.
It turned out that a family had a difficult delivery, so they immediately sent people over the cliff, rented bicycles, went to the hospital, and called an ambulance.
Who would have thought that when the ambulance arrived at the other end of Duanhun Cliff and saw two lonely iron locks, they were so frightened that their calves twisted and they shouted directly to the ditch.
"I'm sorry, we really can't get through it here, you just have to deal with it yourself."
The formal route is unavailable. I want to see the pregnant woman's face turn red from holding herself back, and I'm afraid there's a danger of the umbilical cord wrapping around her neck.
Zhang Hongmei's mother has rich experience in delivering babies. After some stress operations, the pregnant woman was saved.
Then he used folk prescription oxytocin and gave it to the pregnant woman. An hour later, the baby was born normally and the mother and baby were safe.
Before the family could thank Zhang's mother, the village chief and the law enforcement team arrived.
The people from the law enforcement team directly showed their IDs, saying they were from the health department, and directly accused Zhang's mother of practicing medicine without a license. They cuffed her with a pair of silver bracelets and took her in.
Then, if that wasn't enough, the Zhang family was fined 5 yuan.
Unfortunately, only Zhang Hongmei, her sister and her brother are left in this family.
Since he couldn't afford the fine, the village chief sent someone to take away the family's old ox that was used to plow the fields. The cow was killed and sold as meat to pay part of the fine.
Then the village chief's wife came to Zhang's house and said to Zhang Hongmei.
"Actually, it's easy to resolve the matter between your parents. My Lao Bai has connections outside and can redeem them, but my condition is that you become my son's wife. When will we get married, the two of them will When are you coming back?"
Seeing that her brother had nothing to eat at home and she couldn't afford the family, Zhang Hongmei had no choice but to agree and marry into the Bai family.
The cultural performance the day before yesterday was actually his last day of school.
After school, he was tied up with a rope by two nephews of the Bai family.
Although there was a 3 yuan betrothal gift, the money never reached Gou Wa. According to Lao Bai, he was saving it for Gou Wa and would give it to him when Gou Wa gets a wife.
