Zhou Village Head was initially very anxious. A person had collapsed and fallen ill in his home, and he felt guilty for not taking better care of them.
However, when Aunt Li bluntly recounted what had happened the previous night, Zhou Village Head was so furious that his face twisted in anger, and he even overturned the kang table, exclaiming, “Sun Dajiang, you little rascal!”
Meizi also told Da Zhu about last night's events, which made Da Zhu so angry that he ran to Barefoot Aunt and gave the unconscious Sun Dajiang a good beating. Aunt Sun, who was taking care of Sun Dajiang, cried with snot and tears, complaining that Zhoujiatun was bullying them for no reason. Outsiders in the village also found Da Zhu's actions somewhat baffling. Old Zhao from Wu Yi Village stepped forward and said, “Da Zhu, is there anything that can't be discussed properly? Why resort to violence?”
Da Zhu clenched his fists and remained silent. The people of Zhoujiatun, who had watched him grow up, were somewhat puzzled; Da Zhu was not the type to act without reason, but picking on an unconscious patient seemed like bullying.
“Da Zhu, wait until Sun Dajiang is better, then you two can have a proper fight. Right now, he is a patient, and you are not allowed to cause any more trouble,” Barefoot Aunt said loudly, feeling a headache coming on from Aunt Sun's commotion.
At that moment, Meizi squeezed in with Yezhi. “Big Zhu~!” Yezhi exclaimed excitedly; it felt great to have someone stand up for her unconditionally.
“Yezhi, what are you doing here?” Da Zhu asked with concern.
She smiled brightly, “Why can't I come? That scoundrel Sun Dajiang deserves to be beaten a thousand times!”
Yezhi's words were shocking, and the people of Zhoujiatun glared angrily at those from Wujia Village, still unclear about the situation.
Aunt Sun, wiping her nose, shouted, “What did my nephew do that was so terrible to deserve such a beating?”
Just as Yezhi was about to speak up, Da Zhu shouted loudly, “He stole something!”
Tears welled up in Yezhi's eyes; it was hard to believe that such an upright person as Big Zhu would lie just to protect her reputation. In truth, it was difficult to articulate what Sun Dajiang had done.
“Right... I... while drunk... sneaked into Zhou Village Head's house to steal... something!” Sun Dajiang propped himself up weakly.
Immediately, disdainful looks surrounded him. Sun Dadong looked at Yezhi with a pale face, his eyes filled with pleading.
Big Zhu, annoyed, stood protectively in front of her and glared at Sun Dajiang. As for her? She was still angry and furious but felt soft-hearted towards Sun Dajiang. Admitting to “stealing” meant he had suffered enough; perhaps he deserved another chance.
Out of nowhere, Zhou Village Head appeared with a serious expression and said sternly, “Our place in Zhoujiatun is small; we cannot accommodate everyone from Wujia Village...!” Yezhi couldn't help but laugh; it was her first time seeing someone being chased away from Zhoujiatun.
Aunt Ren Er pulled on Red Sister, gossiping, “What do you think Sun Dajiang stole from the village head's house that made Da Zhu and the village head so angry?” This question wasn't only on the minds of the people from Zhoujiatun.
Aunt Sun was relentlessly interrogating Sun Dajiang, who was lying in the cart groaning in pain. "How could you go steal something? Speak up!" The more Aunt Sun thought about it, the angrier she became, and she started hitting Sun Dajiang randomly. Unknowingly, one of her strikes hit him in a sensitive area, causing his face to turn pale and cold sweat to pour down. Aunt Sun was so frightened that she called Liu San, who was driving the cart, to rush to the Community Clinic.
Inside the Community Clinic, Sun Dajiang stammered as he explained his condition to the doctor. After the doctor pulled down his pants and took a look, he said, "The injury is quite serious!"
Sun Dajiang felt extremely embarrassed and mustered the courage to ask, "I won't be... unable to function, will I? Doctor, you have to save me!"
The doctor coldly replied, "Rest for a year and a half, then come back!" Sun Dajiang stared blankly at the paper ceiling as if he were a terminally ill patient.
Aunt Sun stood nervously at the door. "Doctor, is my nephew going to be okay?"
"His cold isn't serious, but he has an injury that needs time to heal!" The doctor's words struck Aunt Sun like a bolt from the blue, causing her legs to weaken. "Those heartless people from Zhoujiatun are trying to ruin our Sun Family's lineage! What kind of terrible thing could warrant such cruelty?" Aunt Sun wailed while thinking that this matter couldn't just end like this.
...
At Zhou Village, Zhou Village Head, Da Zhu, Mei Zi, and Aunt Li were so busy that they still made it a point to check on Aunt Zhou every day for peace of mind. At first, Aunt Zhou didn't think much of it, but after three consecutive days of visits filled with concern, it caught the attention of her entire family.
That evening, after dinner, Elder Brother Yu didn't even wash his bowl but instead pulled Da Zhu aside for a chat. Da Zhu was an honest man and revealed most of what he knew after just a few questions from Elder Brother Yu.
"Elder Brother Yu, let's just forget about this matter; don't bring it up again so Leaf Sister doesn't feel embarrassed."
Elder Brother Yu appeared calm on the surface but was seething inside. That night he tossed and turned in bed unable to sleep. Sister Luo was disturbed by him as well and couldn't sleep either. After some probing questions from her, Elder Brother Yu hadn't even finished when Sister Luo sat up angrily. The next day she went looking for an opportunity to vent her frustrations to Aunt Zhou.
When Aunt Zhou heard this news, she was furious and hugged Leaf Sister while crying uncontrollably. "Daughter, how could such a big thing happen and you didn't tell your aunt? We're family!" She wished she could forget this troubling matter and never speak of it again to avoid worrying everyone. However, as the saying goes, "You can't hide fire with paper," and it rang true.
A cart stopped at her doorstep as Aunt Sun burst into the yard like a whirlwind. With tears still in her eyes from earlier, seeing Aunt Sun made Aunt Zhou furious as if she were seeing Sun Dajiang himself. "You're just in time; I was looking for your nephew to settle accounts!"
Aunt Sun's nose flared with anger. "Settle accounts? We need to have a serious discussion here! Leaf Sister is a Yellow Flower girl; how could you be so cruel? You can't just harm a man's lineage like that! Our Dajiang likes you; if you hadn't used those seductive eyes on him, would he have done such a thing?"
Aunt Zhou was infuriated and picked up a broom to hit Aunt Sun forcefully. "Stop talking nonsense! Stop talking nonsense!" Aunt Sun endured several blows before letting out pig-like screams that attracted many villagers.
Everyone was confused about what was happening. Seeing people gather around made Aunt Sun even more animated as she vividly recounted how Yezhi had seduced Sun Dajiang. "Our Dajiang stole something; he only stole your mouth, Leaf Sister! Who knows how many people have bitten into it? You pretend to be pure during the day but lure Dajiang into losing his mind at night! A lovesick boy is easy for you to manipulate; if he didn't want it, he could just push you away! How could you do such a thing? If anything happens to our Dajiang's lineage, I won't let this go with you!"
Aunt Zhou threw down the broom and charged forward with bloodshot eyes ready to tear Aunt Sun apart.
The yard was filled with people—some trying to mediate, others watching the spectacle unfold while discussing among themselves; there were both villagers and outsiders present.
Yezhi's throat was hoarse from shouting but no one seemed to hear her voice. Zhou Village Head let out an angry roar that brought an end to this farce.
Yezhi looked up at the sky, which was as blue as if washed with water.
Luo Fengjuan tightened her grip on her shoulder and said, "Don't mind it!"
She smiled lightly and resolutely said, "Wait, I have something to say."
The Zhou Village Head, who was in a hurry, glanced at her with concern and said, "Girl, we all know Aunt Sun is talking nonsense. What more do you have to say? Just rest well; don't even think about entering our village in the future." Before everyone could react, he added sternly, "And those who spread rumors—hmph!"
Yezi felt like crying and laughing at the same time. She had always been immersed in the simple warmth of Zhoujiatun and wanted to leave her past behind to become a brand new, sunny person. She tried to be open-minded everywhere, but it seemed that being open-minded only made her more hated.
She sighed lightly, finding it difficult to be a person!
"Sun Dajiang really didn't steal anything; he was disrespectful to me and got taught a lesson."
Aunt Sun shouted defiantly, "Teaching someone a lesson by grabbing a man's private parts? You're just an unmarried girl; how could you do that!"
Yezhi wore a smile on her face but spoke harshly, "The Chairman teaches us to treat comrades warmly like spring and to treat enemies cruelly and mercilessly like severe winter. I firmly support the Chairman's teachings."
Winter Ear, who had been enjoying the spectacle, suddenly felt a chill at her neck as Aunt Sun's furious gaze fixed on her. The Zhou Village Head roughly pushed Aunt Sun aside and said, "We don't welcome you here! Leave!"
Aunt Sun plopped down on the ground and cried loudly. The people from Wujia Village trying to help her pull her away were unsuccessful. In the end, it was Aunt Ren Er, Aunt Li, and Barefoot Aunt who couldn't stand it any longer; a group of women lifted her onto the cart.
