Chapter 367 Accusing Mrs. Han of her evil deeds
The village chief saw the Han family coming to make trouble again, and he was furious. He pointed at Han Laoliu and said, "Even if Xi Rou is not Xi Zhuquan's biological daughter, she is also his child. She was raised by the villagers of Jing'an Village. Her surname is Xi, and your surname is Han. She is not qualified. Do you, the village chief, have the qualifications?"
"She is a daughter who is about to get married. Why should the housing land in our village always be inherited by sons? The Xi family has no sons, so naturally it will be inherited by us." Han Laoliu said with disgust.
"That's right, there is no woman who inherits a house in our village." Han Jun said contemptuously.
After hearing this, the villagers began to talk about it.
"Yes, what Han Jun said makes sense. The homesteads in our village are all left to sons, so how can they be given to daughters?"
"That's right, Village Chief. We only have so many residential plots in our village. We can't give them away to outsiders for free."
"Humph, how come outsiders got the advantage? Xirou is from our village, but Han Laoliu's family is obviously from outside the family, yet they still want to take over other people's things. How shameless!"
"You can't say that..."
……
As they talked, the villagers split into two teams, each holding their own opinions.
Hao Mengjiao felt a little uneasy when she saw this scene, and whispered, "Xirou, why don't we just give it up? This piece of land is not worth much."
Xirou knew her mother had never seen such a scene before, so she smiled and patted her hands, comforting her, "Mom, it's okay, this is all child's play, I can handle it, and besides, it's our family's stuff, why should it be given to others for free?"
Seeing Xirou looking confident, Hao Mengjiao breathed a sigh of relief, but soon felt distressed. What had her daughter been through to be able to face these unruly people so calmly?
The villagers kept talking, and it looked like they were about to start a quarrel. Xirou then slowly said, "Can I inherit if I have a son?"
Han Jun sneered and said proudly: "Of course it is, but do you have it at home?"
"That's right. Although Chen Qingyun is not dead, she is a hen that can't lay eggs. She hasn't laid an egg in all these years. Haha, she still wants a son. It's really funny." Han Laoliu said sarcastically.
When the villagers heard this, they were all surprised. Chen Qingyun was not dead!
"I'm so sorry to disappoint you. My mother really gave birth to a son. How is it? Are you surprised?" Xirou said with a smile.
"What? How is that possible?" Han Jun's face changed.
He also wanted to get the Xi family's homestead so that he could have an extra house, which would make it much easier for him to get married.
"Impossible, you are lying, Village Chief, don't be fooled by her!" Han Laoliu said hurriedly.
Her son and daughter-in-law were also very anxious, cursing Xirou for being a black-hearted person who lied for the homestead.
Xirou felt a little annoyed, and took out her family's household registration book and handed it to the village chief: "Village chief, this is our family's household registration book. My father is the head of the household, and this Xi Yunzhou is my brother."
The village chief was feeling difficult just now, but when he heard Xirou say that Xi Zhuquan actually had another son, he was overjoyed and started to read the book excitedly.
After checking and confirming that the Xi family had successors, the village chief said happily: "Disband, all dispersed. The Xi family has a male heir. Don't covet things that don't belong to you. If you are greedy, you will be punished one day!"
After saying that, he looked coldly at those people from the Han family who were trying to grab the homestead.
Han Laoliu was unwilling to give in, so he lowered his posture and started to play the emotional card: "Xirou, our two families are relatives. If things get too tense, it won't be good for anyone. Your family has moved to Beijing, become city dwellers, and live in a big house. Why are you competing with us?"
"Yes, to be honest, we are your benefactors. If our family hadn't bought your mother back home and given her to your father as his wife, how could you have your brother? As a human being, you should be grateful." Han Jun's mother said.
"Yes, if your grandmother hadn't brought you back, would you have been able to enter the Xi family?" Han Laoliu continued, hoping that Xi Rou would soften her heart and give the homestead to them.
"Come to think of it, it was my idea for your grandmother to adopt you!" Han Jun's mother said, "When your mother had been married for many years without having a child, I told her that if she took a child home to raise, she would be able to bring back good fortune and then get pregnant with her own child."
Han Jun's mother smiled brightly and looked at Xirou as if asking for credit.
Hao Mengjiao was listening at the side, she was so angry that she was shaking all over, and she slapped Han Jun's mother in the face with all her strength.
Han Jun's mother covered her face and screamed, "Who are you? Why did you hit me?"
"Why should I hit you? If I hadn't given this idea to Old Lady Han, would my daughter have gone missing? I have been looking for her for more than ten years. Do you know how I have been living all these years? I haven't settled the score with you yet and sued you for child trafficking. You still have the nerve to come and take credit for it? A slap in the face is the least I can do." Hao Mengjiao said angrily.
The villagers were shocked. They had always thought that Xirou was an unwanted girl. That was also what Old Lady Han told them. They didn't expect that she was actually a stolen child. What a monster!
Han Jun's family was stunned. This was Xirou's biological mother. Xirou was stolen by Old Lady Han!
Han Laoliu disagreed and said, "So what if that's the case? My sister brought her home and raised her. Raising her is better than giving birth to her. She should be grateful!"
Hao Mengjiao was finally enlightened. She had seen shameless people before, but never someone so shameless. She said angrily, "Bullshit! You stole my child and separated us from each other. Do you still think you are right?"
The village head's wife was also very angry and cursed, "That's right, you are such a heartless thing. You stole a good girl and made her work like a slave. How has Xirou lived these years? We all know what kind of life she has lived. She was forced to cut grass for pigs when she was 5-6 years old. The clothes she wore were always tattered. At the age of 7, she had to cook for the whole family and empty the chamber pot for the old woman. The second child stole a chicken leg and insisted that it was Xirou who ate it. You directly broke the child's head and made her faint. If she hadn't been lucky, would she still be here now?"
"That's right, this child is really pitiful. Although Xizhu Zhen and his wife love this child, they are also poor. They saved their own food rations and barely raised this child. You still have the nerve to rob their homestead? Shame on you."
"I don't even want to talk about it. That winter, Xirou was only 8 years old. She was wearing tattered clothes and torn shoes. She was forced by Old Lady Han to go to the river to wash clothes. I felt sorry for the child, shivering with cold, so I gave her a half-new dress. But the next day, Ximeimei wore it. Alas, what a monster! Old Lady Han is not a human being. She has a very dark heart."
……
The villagers spoke one after another, accusing Old Lady Han of her evil deeds.
After hearing this, Hao Mengjiao felt so heartbroken that she almost fainted. Her child had suffered so much. She couldn't help but hugged Xirou and cried.
"My poor child, you have suffered so much. Mommy is so heartbroken." Hao Mengjiao hugged Xirou and said while crying.
Seeing this, the villagers couldn't help but wipe away their tears. It was so tragic!
Hao Mengjiao touched her daughter's face and secretly swore in her heart that she would love her daughter more and make up for all the hardships she had suffered over the years.
She wiped away her tears, took a deep breath, and glared at Han Laoliu's family with a knife-like look: "If you know what's best for you, get out of here quickly, or don't blame me for being rude. Although our Jiang family is far away in Beijing, I am still capable of dealing with you unruly people."
Han Laoliu trembled in his heart and wanted to refute firmly, but when he saw Hao Mengjiao's terrifying eyes, he immediately wilted again.
He shook his hand and snorted coldly, glared at Xirou fiercely, and left reluctantly.
Han Jun was anxious and shouted from behind: "Grandpa, Grandpa, don't leave. Without the homestead, how can I marry a wife?"
"If you can't get married, just stay single and don't bother me." Han Laoliu didn't even turn his head.
