Chapter 1375: Chapter 1197 Xiao’ai, Dabao, Xiaobei

Nan Feng thought to herself, if Xia Dabao had informed her beforehand, she would have never allowed Xia Dabao to perform this play, knowing that Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao would surely see them as enemies afterward.

They had lived peacefully in the village for over a decade, never seeking attention. Now, what Xia Dabao had done could be considered earth-shattering.

Anyway, what’s done is done; if they were to make enemies, so be it.

After all, Xia Dabao was helping Axiang, and Aunt Zhao’s family really had gone too far.

...

On stage, Xia Dabao and the others were still performing diligently.

It had reached the point where Ahua was married off, and her life after marriage was miserable; she was constantly scolded, always busy like a spinning top, yet she never received a word of comfort. Aniu particularly detested her, unwilling to have any contacts with her.

It was at this moment that the villagers realized that this might be the story of Zhao Datu and Axiang.

The villagers had indeed heard about Axiang’s situation—how she incessantly worked hard since her marriage. They were aware of it. It’s just that Axiang hardly complained to outsiders and didn’t interact much with the villagers, so they couldn’t say much.

Now that it was enacted, they felt even more sympathy for Axiang.

And the last scene was the most crucial.

"Ahua" came out from "Aniu’s" house and sat alone on the ground, crying, "Could it be, I have to live this life alone, desolate and unsupported?"

At that moment, Axian came up.

As soon as Axian appeared, "Ahua" muttered to herself, "Hey, isn’t that the village idiot?"

Seeing this, Nan Feng furrowed her brows—her Axian was no fool!

And the fool was also watching the play among the crowd, thinking to himself: Isn’t that Dabao’s brother Axian? How is he a fool?

Stage Axian offered "Ahua" a potato: "Sister, do you want a potato? It’s cooked."

"Fool, why are you giving me potatoes?"

"Sister, you once taught me how to grow vegetables and were kind to me; so I wanted to give you the potatoes to eat."

"Thank you, but I don’t want it."

Ahua refused the potato, and Axian threw the potato away and then brought her a sweet potato: "Sister, then eat this sweet potato."

"Sister, would you like some peanuts?"

"How about some candied haw?"

"..."

After a few attempts, Ahua finally said, "Fool, you are really kind to me!"

"Sister, have you planted your field yet? If not, I can help you plant it," Axian said again.

The fool had helped Axiang work in the fields, which many people saw; now it all made sense.

At that moment, "Ahua’s mother" appeared, and "Aunt Zhao" also came out, and the two began to quarrel again; they scolded Axiang while arguing, and Axiang in anger said, "From now on, I’m just going to live with the fool!"

And with that, the play was over.

Xia Dabao then reverted back to being Xia Dabao: "Everyone, after watching today’s play, I believe you all might be wondering if this story is true? Is it about someone from our village? I want to say, whether it matches someone or not is up to you. In any case, that’s where the story ends. We did not arrange this play to target anyone in particular but to reveal some truths about these stories. I hope everyone won’t be too harsh on Ahua in the story; everyone has their own difficulties, a little more understanding, a little more care, that’s all."

Aunt Zhao and Widow Chen were also present at the performance, and anyone could tell that the story was about them. Widow Chen felt both embarrassed and furious knowing the hardships Axiang faced, and after seeing it portrayed, she could hardly swallow the indignation of her daughter being treated so poorly.
