Chapter 45 Zheng Fugui's Acting
Chapter 45 Zheng Fugui's Acting
Liu Cuihong was frightened by Shen Yuanhao's sudden outburst. This guy has always been a soft persimmon, allowing himself to be beaten and scolded. Sure enough, today he has someone's support and has become bolder!
Liu Cuihong put her hands on her hips and pointed at Shen Yuanhao: "Well, you little bastard, you are really shaking now. You were always yelling at me before, but now you have become too powerful!"
"I told you that our Old Zheng shouldn't have accepted a jerk like you. You're such an ungrateful person that you can't tame."
"What are you doing, Shen Yuanhao? How can you point a pair of tongs at your master's wife?"
Zheng Fugui was called back from the factory by his neighbor Master Liu. When he came back, he saw the yard full of people watching the excitement. His son was holding his hand and crying in pain, which immediately aroused his anger.
"Oh, Old Zheng, you are finally back. Your good apprentice took advantage of your absence to bring people to bully my mother and me. You must teach him a lesson!" Liu Cuihong shouted even louder when she saw Zheng Fugui.
"Just shut up, is there any master's wife like you?"
"Whether your family treats my fifth brother as an apprentice or a farmhand, you know it clearly!"
"Judge me, everyone. Who would beat their apprentice like this?" Shen Anan said as she pulled up the clothes on Shen Yuanhao's arm, exposing the scar to the onlookers.
"Oh my god, was this Liu Cuihong who beat me? This is so cruel!"
"I've heard Liu Cuihong scold Xiao Shen often before, but I never thought she would beat him up like this! What a sin!"
"Yeah, no wonder they're anxious. This is too ruthless..."
Zhao Cuihong raised her voice: "I beat him, so what? Who goes to a master's house to learn skills without getting beaten? And who told him not to work? He even drags his feet on washing a few pieces of clothes. Such a lazy bone deserves to be punished!"
"Shut up!" Zheng Fugui shouted at Zhao Cuihong with a dark face. This idiot is really more of a hindrance than a help.
In Zheng Fugui's opinion, it is normal to suffer grievances when learning skills from a master. After all, it is not easy to learn the skills to make a living from others.
When he was young and learning the craft from his master, he had to empty the chamber pot every morning and wash feet at night, and he had to accompany his master carefully and with a smile on his face. Getting beaten was commonplace.
He always knew that Zhao Cuihong taught Shen Yuanhao a lesson from time to time, and it was even his instruction. It was only after he accepted this apprentice that he discovered that Shen Yuanhao was extremely talented in carpentry. He learned things quickly and well, and he worked meticulously. The things he made were more beautiful than his own.
What made him alert was that Shen Yuanhao once figured out a folding stool by himself, and the workshop director praised it again and again. If Shen Yuanhao climbed up to make it, he, the master, would really starve to death.
So he wanted to use Zhao Cuihong to temper Shen Yuanhao's temper and make Shen Yuanhao dare to work obediently under him. He didn't expect that Zhao Cuihong was such a useless idiot that she was actually caught in the act!
He is still so self-righteous now. There are people from the furniture factory around here. If the news gets out, Master Zheng will become a laughing stock.
Sometimes he really wanted to open Zhao Cuihong's head to see if it contained a pig's brain!
No, pigs are smarter than her!
"Snapped!"
Zheng Fugui turned around and slapped Zhao Cuihong in the face. He had been doing carpentry for many years and was naturally strong. He deliberately used force and slapped Zhao Cuihong so hard that she spun around in place before falling to the ground, with blood oozing from the corners of her mouth.
"Dad, why are you so mean?" Zheng Boyuan widened his eyes and looked at his father in disbelief.
Zheng Fugui was indifferent to his son's accusations. He stepped forward and, tears streaming down his face, grabbed Shen Yuanhao's arm. "Yuanhao, you're so stupid! Why didn't you tell your master about the beating you got? The wound must be very painful!"
"It's all Master's fault for being so busy with work that he neglected family matters. Your Master's wife is really going too far! Even if you made a mistake, she shouldn't have been so harsh!"
"Don't worry, the master will definitely make the decision for you!"
He was just acting and pressed directly on Shen Yuanhao's wound. Shen Yuanhao couldn't help but shudder.
Shen Anan felt like vomiting when she saw his hypocritical face. She pushed Zheng Fugui away and said, "You hurt my fifth brother! If apologies were useful, why would we need the police?"
"Zhao Cuihong is abusing me. I'm definitely going to report her to the police! People like her should be sent to a reformatory!"
When Zhao Cuihong heard she was going to be rehabilitated, she was furious. With half of her face swollen, she rushed forward to hit him: "Okay, you little bitch, you dare to catch me? I'll teach you a lesson too!"
"Alright, stop it!"
Zheng Fugui saw that Zhao Cuihong was trying to make things worse, so he grabbed her arm from behind and tried to drag her back.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Cuihong was so excited that she used a lot of strength. Not only did she break free from his hand, but because of the huge movement, she hit Zheng Fugui directly on the chin.
"Snapped!"
Zheng Fugui was so angry that he used all his strength to slap Zhao Cuihong in the face. Zhao Cuihong fell to the ground again and couldn't get up for a long time.
The other side of her face also swelled up at a speed visible to the naked eye, which was also symmetrical. Zhao Cuihong groaned a few times and actually spat out a bloody tooth, which scared the neighbors who were watching.
Aunt Li, who lived on the east side, couldn't stand it any longer. She stepped forward and handed the handkerchief in her arms to Zhao Cuihong, "Fugui, even if Cuihong was wrong, you're too cruel. After all, she's the wife who gave birth to two children for you!"
"Woooooooooooooo..."
After hearing what Aunt Li said, Zhao Cuihong could no longer hold back and she just fell to the ground and burst into tears. Her crying sounded a little muffled because both sides of her face were swollen.
The other onlookers were touched by this scene. Zhao Cuihong is usually such a fierce person, but now she is crying like this, she looks so pitiful.
People are always like this, habitually sympathizing with the weak. The heart that just leaned towards Shen Yuanhao, involuntarily leaned towards Zhao Cuihong. After all, Zhao Cuihong had been their neighbor for so many years...
Aunt Li was soft-hearted and her eyes turned red when she heard Zhao Cuihong crying. This was mainly because when she was young, her husband was also heavy-handed and she was often beaten. Now seeing Zhao Cuihong's pitiful look with her pig-headed face, she suddenly remembered the sad things.
Aunt Li turned to the Shen siblings, and relying on her age, she seemed to be in charge. "Little Shen, listen to my advice. Being an apprentice is bound to be tough. Your mistress was a bit harsh, and she was wrong. But your master is on your side, and that's a relief for you!"
"Your master showed no mercy. Look, your master's wife has also learned her lesson. Why don't we just forget about it?"
"You're trying to learn the skills of the Zheng family, but don't forget your roots! Auntie will make the decision for you. Let's just forget about this matter. We're still a family from now on!"
"Haha, who do you think you are to rush up and make decisions?" Shen Anan sneered and walked up to Aunt Li with disdain.
