C620 His Father-in-law Was a Retainer
Lan Tian followed Zhou Shanshan to the foot of the mountain and found out that she had tied the horse there. Under her suggestion, he rode with her and headed towards her house.
While chatting with Zhou Shanshan, Lan Tian found that apart from industrial development which was not as developed as the secular world, the rest of them were almost the same. For example, the way they addressed people and the way they spoke was no different from the secular world.
The reason why they could live longer was probably because there was no industrial industry. After all, there was no industry, so there was no pollution. Without pollution, the spiritual energy in the air would naturally be much purer.
An hour later, the two of them reached home while touching the darkness.
"Mom, I found Lan Tian!" After Zhou Shanshan tied the horse up, she knocked on the door and shouted.
Just as she shouted, an angry old man's voice came from inside, "This useless person, where did he go to fool around again?"
One. A footstep came over and the door opened with a creak. A strong smell of alcohol drifted out from the room.
One. A thin old woman smiled at Lan Tian. "Child, are you alright? Don't run around when you get off work. Look, you've made San anxious."
Zhou Shanshan said to the old woman, "Mom, Lan Tian was beaten up. When I found him, he fainted in a ravine. He lost his memory after waking up. Even I don't know him. "
"Ah?" The old woman was so scared that her body trembled. She quickly pulled Lan Tian into the room and looked at the weak lantern carefully. "Although there is a lot of blood, there is no injury."
In the room sat a fat bald old man. On the table was a stack of peanuts, a plate of vegetables, and a plate of leeks fried eggs. There was also half a pot of old wine.
The old man squeaked and finished the wine in the cup. He placed the wine cup heavily on the table and snorted disdainfully from his nostrils.
"Hmph, this good-for-nothing still doesn't know who he's fooling around with. There's no way for him to report anymore. That's why he got blood from somewhere and smeared it on his own body."
"I say, good-for-nothing, don't think that just because you pretend to have amnesia, you can push the matter of your promise to the past. Remember this for your father. In another seven years, if you are still penniless, then get out of the Zhou family for me. Did you hear that?"
Before Lan Tian could reply, the old man stood up and kicked Lan Tian's leg.
He cursed angrily," Damn it, how many times have I told you? You have to answer my question immediately. Did you hear that?"
Lan Tian had been sent to this eunuch's body due to the explosion of his original body. Just as he was feeling unhappy, he was kicked by this old man. Instantly, his anger rose from the bottom of his heart.
Just as he was about to resist, Zhou Shanshan had already pulled him over and shouted at the old fellow," Dad, why are you like this? Didn't you hear me say that Lan Tian was injured just now? You still hit him?"
Zhou Shanshan's mother, Chen Xiuqin, also couldn't help but advise, "Yeah, Zhengyu, don't hit this child. It's very pitiful."
Who knew that if she didn't say that, it would be fine. Just as she finished speaking, the old man went up and gave her a slap.
He cursed angrily, "Smelly woman, what's wrong? Did I hit your heart? I told you that you had an affair with that damned father of his, but you still refused to admit it. "
Chen Xiuqin was used to being hit. She covered her face with her hands, tears streaming down her face. "Zhengyu, are you still speaking human language? How many times have I told you? Mo Lan and I are innocent. "
Just as he said this, the old man slapped him again. "Damn it, Mo always calls me big brother and big brother. Look at how intimate you call me. You stinky mother! How dare you cheat on me? I can't beat you to death. "
After yelling, he raised his hand again.
"Enough!" Zhou Shanshan suddenly pulled her mother behind her and looked at Zhou Zhengyu with eyes that were spitting fire. She said word by word, "Zhou Zhengyu, are you still a man? You always hit your own woman. Don't you find it shameful?"
Although the old man always hit his wife every now and then, and even though Zhou Shanshan often hit her when she was young, he didn't dare to hit her these few years.
Why? Because this daughter was getting more and more beautiful the more she grew. Lan Tian's cousin, Lan Feng, was fiercely chasing after her. If it succeeded, then the old man would have a meteoric rise. In short, she was still counting on her daughter to make a fortune!
He was scolded by his daughter and scratched his bald head. He grunted indignantly, "You're wearing a green hat. Do you think it's embarrassing for me? Hmph. I, your father, have lost more people than you have ever seen. "
After saying that, he turned his head and shouted at Lan Tian, who was behind Zhou Shanshan, "Wretched loser, I will go and beat him up. If you still look like a little man, then quickly think of a way to earn big money. "
"It saves me from going to work every night. But if you encounter a problem and only know how to hide behind a woman, I definitely can't count on you."
"Hey, what kind of f * cking sin did I commit? My wife cheated on me and found me a son-in-law, yet you're so cowardly. It's so bitter!"2
He shook his bald head, picked up the gong and the small stick, and walked outside.
When he walked to the door, Chen Xiuqin, who had been slapped twice, immediately took off the bamboo hat behind the door. "Zhengyu, the wind is strong at night. Put on the hat. I specially bought this for you today."
Her good intentions instantly angered Zhou Zhengyu. The old man violently knocked down the bamboo hat in her hand. He went up and kicked Chen Xiuqin, causing her to fall to the ground.
He pointed at her and scolded, "Damn it, do you think you haven't put on enough green hats for me?"
Lan Tian looked at the bamboo hat and was speechless. It turned out that the layer of cloth next to the bamboo hat was sewn with green cloth. No wonder the old man was angry.
After the old man kicked his wife, he left while cursing. Chen Xiuqin, who was lying on the ground and wiping her tears, was left behind.
"Mom, you really are. Why don't you fight back every time you get hit by him? As long as you dare to fight back a few times, he won't hit you so recklessly anymore."
Zhou Shanshan helped Chen Xiuqin up as she scolded her.
Zhou Xiuqin shook her head, "What are you talking about? Your father is the head of the family. How can I fight back against him? Then what does he think of him? "
"You know as well. Because your father doesn't have any ability, he can only be a retainer and is always looked down upon by our relatives. He is already feeling aggrieved in his heart. How can I not give him face? "
At this point, he looked at Lan Tian with a face full of hope," Lan Tian, now all the hope of Zhou family is on you. You have to work hard. You can't let Shanshan suffer with you all the time! "
"I have to suffer a little. It's fine if I have to suffer a little, but you have to make Shanshan happy!"
"Mom, I will." He wanted the old man to be at ease, so he replied immediately.
"Eh..." Just as he finished speaking, he heard Zhou Shanshan let out a long sigh.
Chen Xiuqin was stunned and immediately saw the worry on her daughter's face. It was said that she knew that her daughter was like a mother. Chen Xiuqin immediately guessed that her daughter had something on her mind.
She said to Lan Tian, "Lan Tian, look at your dirty clothes. Quickly go take a shower and then come over for dinner."
Lan Tian nodded and walked to the pot house. He took the clothes that Zhou Shanshan handed over and started to take a bath in the big bucket.
He heard Chen Xiuqin in the hall ask in a low voice, "Shanshan, tell mom, do you have something on your mind?"
