Chapter 363: 346 Riot (Chapter 2)
Xiaofeng glanced out the window and indeed saw Zhang Dacai, his face red and his ears crimson, spouting off something, the very image of a drunkard, completely unreasonable.
"Looks like he’s had too much to drink," Chu Qing observed. "Someone should take him away, we can’t let him hold up everyone’s meal time."
It should have been time to serve the dishes by now, but everyone was too caught up in the commotion to think about eating; they had all gathered around to watch the excitement.
Ma Donghua looked at Xiaofeng, trying to gauge her reaction.
Xiaofeng wasn’t the least bit flustered and moved leisurely, frustrating Ma Donghua, "Xiaofeng, you always have a solution. You need to think of a way to get rid of him. Today is the boy and girl twins’ full-moon celebration, and if we can’t start the feast in time, who knows what these relatives and friends might say about our household."
Ordinarily, at family banquets, everyone arrives happy and leaves happy. People who cause trouble at such events are rare.
"Both my elder brother and my mom are there," Xiaofeng said, regarding the situation today which involved her elder brother, she really found it inconvenient to intervene.
Seeing Xiaofeng’s reluctance to get involved, Ma Donghua stepped outside.
She also had to go check out the spectacle.
Chu Qing pulled out some baby clothes to air them, "Xiaofeng, you should still try to handle it. If it’s a private matter, it can definitely be resolved privately."
"The other party is just a scoundrel, and he definitely won’t agree to settle it privately. But we can still teach him a lesson; who let him come here and cause trouble." Xiaofeng said, standing up and looking around, not seeing Ye Cheng, "Where is Ye Cheng? I don’t see him."
Ye Cheng pushed open the door and entered, "Wife, you were looking for me?"
Xiaofeng motioned outside with her mouth, "You go handle it, it’s not going to end well if this keeps up. Everyone’s still waiting to start eating."
"Coming to disrupt my twins’ full-month celebration, and he didn’t even see if I agreed," Ye Cheng nodded, walking towards the outside, "I’ll go help handle it."
When Ye Cheng got there, Zhang Dacai was already sitting on the ground, "I’m not leaving. From today on, I’ll squat right here, I’ll eat here, I’ll sleep here. My son is here, I’m waiting for my son to support me in my old age, I’m not going anywhere."
He Ximei looked at his shameless demeanor and stepped forward to drag him, "Zhang Dacai, you get lost, get far away from here."
Now he remembers Pengzi is his son, what was he doing earlier?
He didn’t raise Pengzi when he was young, yet now he expects Pengzi to support him in old age, not even thinking about it.
Not to mention, as far as she’s concerned, Pengzi’s real dad has long been dead.
"Zhang Dacai, are you here to act shamelessly? Believe it or not, I’ll throw you out right now to feed the dogs." He Yong genuinely regretted not kicking Zhang Dacai out earlier.
Looking at what Zhang Dacai is doing now, still squatting here, his delusions are pretty grand.
Zhang Dacai, face red and neck swollen, said, "If you want me to leave that’s fine, let Pengzi come back with me. It’s also fine if he doesn’t want to come back with me, he can just give me a hundred yuan a month as support. Pengzi, choose for yourself, whether to come back with me or to give the money."
Pengzi might not go back with him, but the money must happen.
He’s over fifty now; even if he went outside, how much money could he earn? Without money, how could he drink?
"After all this talk, you’re just here to ask for money, aren’t you?" Su Peng scoffed, "I just want to ask, why should I give you any?"
Su Peng was eager to know what right Zhang Dacai had to come asking for money.
He had the courage to abandon his family back then, yet he’s entangling himself now.
"Without me, your mother wouldn’t have been able to give birth to you." Zhang Dacai didn’t think he had done anything wrong, "Besides, it was your mother’s neglect that made you sick in the first place, which then fried your brain. If she hadn’t been so useless, I wouldn’t have had to drive her out."
"Zhang Dacai, you still have the nerve to say that." Huang Po, He Ximei’s mother, struggled to step forward upon hearing Zhang Dacai’s shameless words, "Yongzi, what are you all waiting for? Throw him into a dung pit, and see if he dares to spout nonsense here."
Huang Po was forthright. Now that Pengzi’s mind was clear, and Zhang Dacai still dared to step forward, if not thrown into a dung pit, then where?
He Yong was a bit conflicted, "Mom, there are so many people watching, and besides, my sister is hosting a banquet today. What if he came back covered in manure? Would any of us still want to eat?"
Throwing him down was easy.
The issue was what to do if he came back afterwards.
"What’s there to be afraid of? If push comes to shove, we’ll just throw him out again." He Yong’s wife, rarely agreeing with her mother-in-law, saw it the same way. In her opinion, people like Zhang Dacai should be thrown out to the maggots, to let him learn a lesson and clearly remember what he had done back in the day.
"I think he’s quite drunk." Ye Cheng came out of the crowd, "It’s useless to reason with a drunkard. I have sobering tea in the house, it’s perfect to give him some to drink."
"Ye Cheng, don’t mind him. My mom is right, a person like him should be thrown into a manure pit," He Ximei said, her face flashing with embarrassment as she heard Ye Cheng’s words.
"If we’re going to throw him, it’d be better to wait until he sobers up; the effect will be much better then." Ye Cheng stepped forward, grabbed Zhang Dacai’s arm, and dragged him towards the pigpen.
Today was the day for the feast, and the two pigs my parents had been raising were slaughtered yesterday, so the pigpen was conveniently empty.
Everyone watched Ye Cheng’s actions and almost dropped their jaws in astonishment. What was this maneuver?
"Who are you, let go of me. I’m telling you, I am Pengzi’s real dad, his home is also my home, you have no right to drive me away," Zhang Dacai protested as he was dragged away, his drunkenness already partly worn off.
But as Pengzi’s biological father, even if the Emperor himself showed up, he had his reasons.
"We’re not driving you away; you just drank too much, so we’re helping you sober up," Ye Cheng efficiently threw him into the pigpen: "If you don’t want to leave and prefer to stay, you can sleep here tonight. It’s empty anyway, so we might as well let you stay here if you wish."
For Ye Cheng, Zhang Dacai was a nobody, just someone trying to ruin the feast.
This was the first feast after the birth of the boy and girl twins, and of course, he couldn’t let anyone spoil it.
"You bastard, let me out," Zhang Dacai didn’t expect this young man to be so ruthless, straight up throwing him into the pigpen: "Pengzi, I’m your real dad; you can’t just ignore this."
Unsteady on his feet, he stepped into a pile of pig manure.
The stench of the pigpen hit him full in the face, and his drunkenness was gone completely.
He desperately banged on the wooden door of the pigpen: "You’ll bring divine retribution down on yourselves!"
Watching Ye Cheng throw the man into the pigpen, He Yong’s family felt a great sense of satisfaction. Grandma Huang watched Ye Cheng with a beaming smile: "Grandson-in-law, you’re really something, unlike your uncle, who’s just a waste."
He would never dare to throw someone into a manure pit.
Ye Cheng wasn’t good at making small talk; he simply said to He Ximei, "Mom, let’s not worry about him; let the feast begin."
He Ximei came back to her senses, right, the feast, they couldn’t delay everyone’s dinner time.
The sound of firecrackers for the feast started, and the servers hurried to serve dishes and drinks. Zhang Dacai’s recent disturbance became a hot topic of discussion during the meal.
Some were in favor of giving him living expenses, and others were not.
Everyone had different perspectives and naturally different ideas.
Zhang Dacai forcefully banged on the door; he wanted to get out, he didn’t want to stay there.
Looking down, he saw a scorpion as long as a finger staring menacingly at him, as if warning him.
He immediately froze, raised his hands, and pleaded for mercy, "Scorpion Spirit, don’t sting me, I won’t make trouble anymore. Please don’t bite me." The scorpion moved forward two steps.
Zhang Dacai extended his foot to step on it, but the scorpion, as if it had eyes, suddenly jumped onto his foot. He recoiled, frightened, and dared not move anymore.
"Scorpion Spirit, I won’t hurt you, don’t hurt me," Zhang Dacai said with his hands raised, truly scared to move.
Xiaofeng saw Ye Cheng returning and smiled at him: "I really wouldn’t have guessed; your approach is simple and brutal."
She had just been wondering how Ye Cheng would handle this situation, not expecting it to be so straightforward and brutal—directly throwing the man into the pigpen.
"Today is an important day for our son and daughter; no disruption is tolerable," Ye Cheng replied seriously.
"I guess the guests who came for a drink are all scared now. They must be thinking, so this is the kind of person Doctor Ye is, throwing people into the pigpen over a minor disagreement," Xiaofeng could almost envision that after today, Ye Cheng’s fame would definitely rise again.
"He wanted to stay himself; I just helped him fulfill his wish," Ye Cheng felt that there was nothing inappropriate about his actions. If there was anything, it was that he had let the other party off too easily by just making him stay in the pigpen.
Before leaving, many went to the pigpen to check on him and found him sleeping soundly, snoring loud enough to wake the heavens.
"Brother," Xiaonian and Xiaoyan approached the pigpen, their eyes excitedly looking inside, eager to try something: "I heard this guy is a total scoundrel, abandoning his wife and child, scum in every way. Shall we teach him a lesson?"
Xiaoyan glanced inside: "What do you want to do?"
Xiaonian smiled mysteriously, whispering closely to Xiaoyan’s ear.
All in all, she had thought of a very fun game to play.
