Escape from the desert

Chapter 190 Maolin Village

Wang Jinhua was afraid that Jiang Yan would not believe her, so tears welled up in her eyes, and she choked up and said, "My father was dragged into corvee service when he was young, and he was exhausted from digging stones in the mine. He has been sick repeatedly for the past few years. This time It should be really bad, brother will ask someone to send me the news, mother... I will go back and have a look, and I will come back the same day after reading it, so as not to delay the family's business."

Jiang Yan immediately felt distressed when she heard it, she quickly took out her handkerchief and wiped the tears on Wang Jinhua's face, and comforted her patiently: "What are you saying at this time so as not to delay the business, you go and pack up quickly, I will let Lin Dong will accompany you back, you haven’t been back to your mother’s house in the past few years since you were married, so take advantage of this time to go back and spend time with your family.”

Jiang Yan waved to Lin Dong and said, "Boss, go and feed the horse. There are two bags of rice noodles at home, and our chickens and ducks are still small. You can go to the village to exchange for two bigger ones, and go to see your old man." People, you can't go empty-handed."

Lin Dong was taken aback, what did mother just say?Let him follow Jinhua back to her mother's house?Do you want to take so many things with you?
"Mom, I will go with me too?"

Looking at Lin Dong with a silly face, Jiang Yan said angrily: "You are Jin Hua's husband, whoever you don't want to go, our family used to be poor, but now the conditions are better, so I don't want to go back and see your father-in-law .”

After finishing speaking, Jiang Yan turned her head to Wang Jinhua and said, "Jinhua, you don't have to worry about family matters, just go back to your mother's house and stay for a few days, and when your father's health is better, you can come back and pack something quickly. "

Wang Jinhua was taken aback, the tears that had just stopped fell again in an instant, more than before, the corners of her eyes were red from crying, and her voice was so choked that she could hardly speak: "Mother, thank you...thank you, I will I will be filial to you."

Jiang Yan patted her on the back, and said warmly: "Mother already knows, Xiaomeng, you accompany Jinhua to pack things."

Liu Xiaomeng nodded quickly, and helped the crying pear blossom and rainy Wang Jinhua into the room.

Jiang Yan went to the backyard to find Lin Dong, took out 20 taels of silver from her arms and handed it to him, saying earnestly: "Boss, you take this money with you, our family used to be sorry for Jinhua, she will marry you three times." It’s been more than a year, and I haven’t been back once. This time, your father-in-law is sick, so you go to the doctor to see him. If it can be cured, don’t be afraid to spend money. If it’s not enough, you can come back to see your mother.”

Lin Dong's eyes were also slightly red, and he nodded heavily: "Mother, I know, I know how to do it."

Why didn't he want to take Jin Hua back to his natal family these years, the two of them shared the same bed, and every night he found that his daughter-in-law's pillow was wet from crying because she missed her family, he felt so uncomfortable.

"Okay, you're a big man, you won't cry like your little wife, mother won't comfort you."

Seeing that the corners of Lin Donghong's eyes were red, Jiang Yan immediately joked that she didn't want to see a man who was a few feet tall crying, but she still felt a little sour in her heart. The reason why Wang Jinhua got engaged to the Lin family back then was because the family was too poor and asked for a bride price that was higher than that of Lin Dong. The average girl's family is much taller.

At that time, both Lin Er and Wang Jinhua's father, Wang Dachui, were conscripted by the government to serve as soldiers. The two met in the military camp, so they betrothed the two children. But later, when Lin Erfen went to the front line, Wang Dachui was accidentally dragged to the mine to dig stones. After suffering a bad health, the family spent a lot of money just on medical treatment.

When the two children grew up and wanted to get married, their family suddenly opened their mouths and increased the dowry. Naturally, the original body was unwilling. For one thing, as soon as Wang Jinhua married into the Lin family, the original body could train her hard.

On weekdays, stern words are not bad, and a small beating every now and then is the norm. Wang Jinhua is soft-tempered and dare not refute. She has endured for more than three years. Silly girls will be tortured to death.

Lin Dong scratched his head naively, and said in a honest voice: "Mother, you are so good now." Well, he was afraid that life during this period of time seemed to be a dream at night, and he was afraid that when he opened his eyes, he would return to the dark world before. day.

"Stupid boy, hurry up and get ready. Maolin Village is not close to our village. I'm going to order two bowls of noodles. You can go as soon as you finish eating. Xiaodouzi is young and can't live without her mother. Take it with you, too. He is already a father, so he has to take good care of his wife and children on the way."

Maolin Village is a village with mixed surnames. In the village, Wang is the main surname, but there are also many people with other surnames. In the early years, it was only a small village with a few hundred people. Because the harvest in many places has not been good in recent years, those who fled slowly gathered and integrated into the surrounding area. Among the several villages, Maolin Village has the most, so it can be counted as the largest nearby village.

Lin Dong is the pillar of the family, and he has always been pulling and taking care of the whole family, so Jiang Yan is very relieved of him.

While they were packing up, Jiang Yan went to the kitchen and ordered two bowls of noodles. There was no cooking for lunch today, and everyone ate noodles, so the ingredients were all ready-made.

The stewed pork bone soup was still steaming, and there was still a large bowl of saozi that had been fried in advance. As soon as the water boiled, Jiang Yan immediately put the noodles in. A bowl of fragrant glutinous rice noodles is ready.

While the two of them were eating, Jiang Yan went to her room and bought pastries from the shopping mall. They were all wrapped in oiled paper, square and square, and looked similar to those bought by dim sum shops in the town. Ordered four big bags.

Farmers usually bring gifts when they visit their relatives. Every family has been unhappy in recent years. It would be nice to bring some eggs. Jiang Yan thought that Wang Jinhua hadn’t gone back for several years, so she wanted to prepare more gifts so that her in-laws would know , she also attaches great importance to this eldest daughter-in-law.

In addition to snacks, he also asked Lin Dong to pack two bags of brown rice and one bag of rice noodles, two old hens bought in the village, a basket of eggs, two cuts of meat for dinner, and soap sold at home. Packed a few boxes together.

After dinner, Lin Dong drove the carriage, and Wang Jinhua sat in the carriage holding Xiaodouzi. The family of three changed into new clothes bought in the town before, and Wang Jinhua even put on the jewelry given by Lin Dong. Jiang Yan bought them rouge gouache from Linfang County.

With such an order, the family of three instantly became like dogs, not much better than those big families in the town, coupled with this luxurious version of the carriage, they don't look like peasants.

The cart wheels drove across the thick mud, Xiaodouzi waved cheerfully at Jiang Yan, Lin Dong pulled the rope, and was a little bit emotional, Wang Jinhua was already in tears with excitement, thinking of seeing her father soon, I was both happy and worried.

Jiang Yan watched the carriage drive out of Lin's Village, thinking of Lin Dong's posture of visiting relatives with his family, she had a sense of returning home with clothes and clothes.
