Chapter 83: Chased Out 2
The family didn’t even eat breakfast before Chen Long went to invite the village chief and the officer.
Chen Hu’s family had also heard Father Chen’s instructions.
Mother Chen was cursing in the courtyard. She said that if he ate her chickens, he would die without descendants. He would suffer from illness and die suddenly. He would rot and bleed…
But as soon as Chen Hu came out, Mother Chen immediately ran back to the main house.
Chen Hu returned to the kitchen. Madam Qian looked over worriedly. Madam Chen, Daniu, and Erniu were sitting quietly by the stove.!!
“Chen Hu.”
Madam Qian’s heart was a mess. She had heard everything her in-laws said. The thought of her family leaving in the future made her feel uneasy.
Chen Hu smiled at Madam Qian and said, “Don’t worry, let’s eat first. You raised this chicken. Have more chicken meat and chicken soup later.”
Eat everything they hadn’t eaten in all the years.
Of course, he knew that he wouldn’t be able to eat everything. It was just that he didn’t want to make his family suffer these few days. He thought that his parents might be able to tolerate it for five or six days. He didn’t expect that in less than two days, they wouldn’t be able to tolerate it anymore.
In any case, it was better to leave early.
When the chicken was stewed, Chen Hu told Chen Daniu and Chen Daniu to eat as much as they could.
The family was silent as they drank all the chicken soup. As soon as they finished eating, Chen Long and Chen Qiang invited the village chief and the officer over.
The village chief, Old Master Wang, frowned.
The officer, Old Master Li, was also frowning.
When Father Chen and Mother Chen came out of the main house, Mother Chen beat them to it and said, “Village Chief, officer, you must uphold justice for us. Our family can’t afford to have such unfilial children. Remove them and I’ll pretend that I never gave birth to this bastard.”
Old Master Li looked at Mother Chen and said calmly, “You have to think carefully. Severing ties is not a joke.”
Father Chen said seriously, “We’ve all thought it through. It’s really difficult to teach an unfilial son. He doesn’t know how to act, he even attacked his parents. I might as well not have this son.”
They had already made up their minds. If not for the fact that Chen Hu was still useful, they would have chased him out long ago. The couple had two sons, so it didn’t matter if there was one less.
The village chief, Old Master Wang, had a solemn expression. “You have to think carefully. If Chen Hu has a good life in the future, you won’t have a chance to regret it.”
This has happened twice in the village. Old Master Wang was also very annoyed. What kind of situation was this?
At this moment, Chen Hu’s family came out of the kitchen. Madam Qian was carrying her son with Chen Daniu and Chen Erniu beside her. Chen Hu walked to the middle of the courtyard and said nothing.
Mother Chen smelled the fragrance of the meat and gritted her teeth as she cursed, “Eat, eat, eat. I’ll curse you to death later.”
Old Master Wang sighed and couldn’t help but persuade Chen Hu, “Hu, don’t be rash. What will happen to your family in the future?”
Chen Hu did not seem to have a healthy body from the way he walked. He was crippled and could even properly.
Life in the Chen family was not easy, but after all, there was a shelter here. If he left, where could he go?
Chen Hu’s expression was cold. He smiled sarcastically and said, “Village Chief, look at what our family is wearing. Perhaps after leaving this house, my family will quickly die of cold on an unknown road, but so what?”
He didn’t care anymore. He didn’t care where he died. He just couldn’t die in this house.
“Okay, you said it, so don’t blame us for not giving you a chance.”
Father Chen’s face was ashen. Chen Hu was not satisfied with this life now. He did not think that if they had not given him a home, he would have died long ago. Those who did not know how to be satisfied should suffer.
Chen Hu sneered and said nothing more.
“Since you’ve both made your decisions and can no longer be mediated, I’ll write down a witness statement. Take one each and submit them to the county office for notarization after putting your thumbprints. I’ll also say this first. Once it’s done, there’s no room for regret.”
Old Master Li looked at Chen Hu and his family and said solemnly.
“Officer, do it. I have no regrets.”
Chen Hu replied decisively.
Father Chen gritted his teeth in anger. “Write it down now. Get them out of our Southern Mountain Village.”
Seeing that Chen Hu and Father Chen were so determined, Old Master Li did not say anything else. He took a pen and paper and began to write. When he was done, Chen Hu, Father Chen, and Mother Chen signed their names with their fingerprints. Chen Hu also asked Madam Qian to take the child with her.
After doing all this, Father Chen chased him away coldly. “This family has nothing to do with you now. Leave immediately.”
Chen Hu limped away with Madam Qian and the child.
Mother Chen went to scoop a ladle of water and splashed it at them. She scolded, “Get lost.”
“Since this is down, we will take our leave.”
Seeing that the matter was over, the village chief and officer didn’t stay long. They said a few words and left together.
From afar, they could still see the figures of Chen Hu’s family. They were dressed thinly and looked extremely pitiful.
Old Master Li sighed and asked, “Su Sanlang’s family is doing well now, right?”
“It’s okay. They have a good house on some of the land. He just lost an eye fighting a tiger a few years ago.”
Old Master Wang replied indifferently.
“This Chen Hu is imitating Su Sanlang, right?”
Old Master Li asked again. He did not live in this village and did not know much.
The village chief, Old Master Wang, nodded. “I think so. Chen Hu and Su Sanlang are friends. Perhaps Chen Hu’s family is going to seek refuge with Su Sanlang’s family. I wonder if Su Sanlang’s family will take them in. If they don’t, it will be terrible.”
“Although his parents are harsh, they are still family. Why do they have to make such a fuss? If they really have complaints in their hearts, in a few years, when his parents pass away, they can live separately.”
Old Master Li sighed. So many people had survived like this. Why did they have to sever ties?
They thought that it would be better if they severed ties. That was because they didn’t see those who were left in the wilderness and were eaten by wild beasts.
Su Sanlang’s family had settled down, but he had also narrowly escaped death. How lucky was he to be able to fight a tiger? Not everyone had such luck.
In this cold weather, Chen Hu’s actions were really unwise and foolish.
Old Master Wang also shook his head and said, “It’s too late to say anything now.”
There was no going back. It was a done deal.
“I don’t know what to say about these people.”
Old Master Li shook his head. He didn’t know if Chen Hu was confused or impulsive. In short, such behavior was definitely not good.
Just because Su Sanlang’s family had settled down did not mean that life was easy. It was not easy to take in a family. Who would want to bear such a huge responsibility?
But no matter what, that was the choice of Chen Hu’s family. Whether they regretted it or not was their business.
