Rebirth of the pastoral landlady

Chapter 149
Chapter 150 Nine Evil Seeds
"What's the matter? Are you scared by your father's loud voice? Hehe, don't be afraid, your father is like that, he is so silly! When I was pregnant with you and Rou'er, your father was also like this, silly Yes, I look like a child!" Sun smiled sweetly, with doting eyes on her face, holding Jinxi in her arms, and said softly.

Jin Xi lay in Sun's warm arms, listening to her rhythmic heartbeat, suddenly, her heart became extremely soft.

In her previous life, she was distrustful of love and marriage because of her rejection and extreme mistrust. Her childhood experience gave her an element of insecurity, which accompanied her later growth.

Now, after being here for so long, Jinxi has been fascinated by the details of getting along with the family of Sun's Liang Yuzhong. She uses her own eyes to look at the surroundings, uses her own heart to understand everything, and is not disturbed by the bad experiences of the previous life. .

The knot that had been entrenched in her heart since she was a child was like a hidden button, and it was completely untied at this moment with a click.Jin Xi finally understands that in this world, not all couples are like birds in the same forest, flying separately when disaster strikes, not all relationships in this world are unreliable, and people are different from each other.

In Liang Yuzhong and Sun's body, Jinxi sees hope and sees light.The dry and cracked heartland is like a spring breeze blowing, spring water flowing, gathering and repairing inch by inch, the original barren expanse is now a piece of fresh green.

"Silly girl, what's the matter with you? You frown and relax now, don't scare your mother!" Sun touched Jinxi's forehead and said in surprise.

Jin Xi withdrew her thoughts and leaned against Sun Shi's arms. The faint fragrance of camellia shampoo still lingered on Sun Shi's body. Jin Xi squinted her eyes, and her voice was elongated, a bit like being coquettish, soft and waxy : "I'm fine, I'm just so happy to see my father and mother loving each other so much! Mother, you and my father, we must live like this forever..."

Sun Erhu, who sat in front and concentrated on driving the car, twitched the corner of his mouth when he heard Jin Xi's unprecedented coquettish words.

Sun was taken aback for a moment, then a smile spread to the bottom of her eyes and heart, she lightly poked Jin Xi's forehead, and said, "What a silly girl, don't worry about it!"

Jin Xi curled up her lips and smiled lowly, Sun Erhu couldn't help laughing, and the bullock cart drove steadily towards Changqiao Town with laughter and laughter.

This afternoon, Liang Yuzhong was working in the house, and his whole body seemed to have endless energy. Not only that, the smile on his swarthy face could not be suppressed, which provoked Da Niu Er Niu, Chun Zhu and the others , kept joking, the atmosphere in the house was particularly good.

When the sun set to the west and fell to Jinji Mountain, Daniu and Chunzhu began to urge Liang Yuzhong to return to the town. Everyone knew that Mrs. Sun had gone to the town, and Liang Yuzhong's heart had already flown.

If it was normal, Liang Yuzhong would have to wait another half an hour before leaving, but this time he couldn't wait for a moment. He packed up his tools and went to the pond at the entrance of the village to wipe his face and arms .As soon as he stepped onto the pond, he saw Liang Yuzhou coming out of the village in a hurry, heading towards the official road.

Liang Yuzhong beckoned to Liang Yuzhou from afar, and Liang Yuzhou trotted up to Liang Yuzhong, and said, "Third brother, are you done with work this morning?"

Liang Yuzhong said: "Yes, your third sister-in-law has come to town, hey, fourth brother, where are you going in such a hurry?"

"Father asked me to go to the butcher's shed on the official road to cut two catties of meat and come back. Someone is here!"

"Oh? It can't be the Yang family from the second sister-in-law's family, right?" Liang Yuzhong asked.

"No, since Lan'er looked for death and life, father never mentioned marriage again, and Yang's family also put this matter on hold, this period of time has not come again." After a pause, Liang Yuzhou continued: "Today The one who came was from Hongjia Village, Hong's elder brother and sister-in-law sent Hong back to Luoyue, and father wanted to keep someone at home for dinner, and the vegetable garden was full of vegetables, so father asked me to cut two catties of meat." Liang Yuzhou said.

"Oh, it's good to be back!" Liang Yuzhong nodded, since the last time Jinxi used tricks to divert the disaster to the east and caused Hong and Yang to fight, Hong packed up his clothes again and returned to his natal home in Hongjia Village, and She threatened not to return to Lao Liang's house again, but to raise the child in her natal family and change the child's surname to Hong.

"Then, fourth child, go and cut the meat, I'm going back to town!" Liang Yuzhong said.

"Third brother, after harvesting the wheat at home, I have a few days free to go to the paddy field. I told my father again today that I have a few days free, and I will go to your house for a few days!" Liang Yuzhou said, from three Since my elder brother's family dug the house foundation, many people in the village have taken time to do helpers, but none of the old Liang's family has moved.Liang Yuzhou felt very sorry, and talked to Lao Liangtou and Tan Shi two or three times, and Lao Liangtou agreed with Liang Yuzhou to help in the past, but Tan Shi stopped him for many reasons.

"It's okay, it's the busy season of farming, and you have to plant rice seedlings and sow seeds. You are a strong laborer at home, so keep up with the work at home first. I have enough people in this house!" Liang Yuzhong patted Liang Yuzhou's shoulder, and said with a smile.

Liang Yuzhou blamed himself even more. The third brother built the house, but he didn't even move a single brick...

"Third Brother, I make up my own mind on this matter, so you just worry about me. Also, you can go back and say hello to Third Sister-in-law for me. After a few days of busy work, I will go to the town to visit her again." !"

"Hey, okay, then I'll be leaving now, see you later!" The two brothers parted ways on the pond, and went to their respective jobs.

Old Liang's house in Jinjishan Village.

Old Liangtou accompanied Hong's elder brother to drink tea and talk in the dining hall at the back, while Jin was preparing dinner in the smoky kitchen.Mrs. Tan has not shown up since the Hong family sent Mrs. Hong in, let alone went to the front to entertain Mrs. Hong's sister-in-law, and stayed in the east room with Liang Yumei to enjoy the coolness.

Yang Shi and Hong Shi got into a pinch last time, which directly caused Hong Shi to go back to her mother's house in a rage. Naturally, it is impossible for Yang Shi to show up at this moment, and besides Liang Jinlan's terrible situation, Yang Shi has no time to be distracted.

In this way, only Hong and her natal sister-in-law are in Hong's house.

"Sister-in-law, you used to say that I didn't change my temper, and I would go back to my mother's house every now and then. Now, the members of the old Liang family, have you learned this?" Hong's anger still remained, pointing to the empty space outside. I went back to my mother’s house with a big belly, and everyone in their old Liang’s family asked questions, as if I wasn’t there, and my brother insisted on sending me back with a shy face. Look, We took the initiative to come back shamelessly, my mother-in-law, grandmother-in-law, aunt, and aunt, did half of them come to see me?"

Hong's sister-in-law sat on the chair, ate crisp candy, glanced outside the room, snorted twice, and said, "I said, sister, don't get angry, you are jumping and yelling in anger here, over there But no one paid attention to it, and it made my ears buzzing. What's the use of accusing you now? Why did you go so early? Your brother and I didn't talk about this marriage back then. Okay, you just plunged in and regret it now? It's too late!"

"I heard from my father at that time that he found me a husband's family and arranged for me to see Liang Lihui from a distance. At that time, I just saw that he was handsome and a scholar, so my heart was moved. But who would think , He unexpectedly skipped the marriage, and there has been no news for half a year, how am I going to live?" Hong lamented.

"Hey, since you fell in love with Li Hui back then, and you even used a little trick to get Li Hui to cook the raw rice with you, then why did you get involved with his father? When this baby comes here, can Li Hui not run away?" Hong's sister-in-law said.

"Sister-in-law, do you think I think so? It's not that old man Liang Yuju who tricked me into going to his grocery store under the guise of his future father-in-law. He didn't know what strange thing he gave me to drink, which made me covered in blood. It was like it was on fire, and then it was a matter of course with him...that. What's worse, he still left this evil seed in my stomach. I told my father, and my father told me to keep quiet about this matter. His reputation as a scholar was gone, and I had to be dumb and eat Coptis chinensis and suffer so much that I couldn’t say anything, so I went into the old Liang’s house with the cheek!" Thinking of her own experience, especially the one that was plotted against by Liang Yuju, Hong was filled with shame and indignation .

"Sister, your mother is also my mother-in-law who went early. Youdao is a sister-in-law like a mother. If my sister-in-law asks you something, don't hide it from me." Hong's sister-in-law blinked her eyes and said softly.

"You ask."

"How many times have you and Li Hui been together?"

"What's the matter?" Hong Shi didn't understand.

The sister-in-law of the Hong family spat, and said shamelessly, "What are you talking about? Isn't it just the matter of men and women being together in bed! Let me ask you, how many times have you done it?"

Hong's face turned red suddenly, but he still snapped his fingers and whispered: "There have been... five or six times!"

"Ah? Tsk tsk, I really can't see it, the young man is impatient! Then, what about you and your father-in-law? How many times have you done it?" Hong's sister-in-law snickered twice and asked again.

"Just once." Hong said.

The sister-in-law of the Hong family frowned, pouted her mouth, and said, "You said that your stomach is really your father-in-law's evil seed?"

Hong slammed her mouth, she would not say these words to outsiders, but sister-in-law is not an outsider.

"Although Liang Lihui is a young man, he has been studying day and night all year round, and his body is so thin that he is not very useful. He just got it in, and it was over before he moved a few times. He was still outside twice. After a while, I will explain everything. My father-in-law is different, really don't underestimate that old guy's old stuff, it is much more useful than Liang Lihui! The baby in my belly must belong to that old guy!"

"Oh, this proves the sentence, people should not be judged by appearances, tsk tsk, Li Hui looks pretty, so it's not useful, what a pity!" Hong's sister-in-law said regretfully.Immediately, his eyes lit up, and he said to Hong: "It's fine if he misses the marriage and doesn't come back, you can safely raise the child at Lao Liang's house. Anyway, your father-in-law will not wrong you and the child, so we can rest assured. As for the old man You don't have to be afraid of the rest of the Liang family, old Liangtou and the others cherish face, and they will definitely not lift this fig leaf."

"Sister-in-law, are you still my own sister-in-law? I told you everything I could and couldn't say, but in the end you still persuaded me to stay in Lao Liang's house? No, I can't stay in Lao Liang's house any longer. You Go and tell your brother, I want to go back to your mother's house with you! I will give birth to the child in my mother's house, if you don't help me raise it, you will find another family to send it away!" Hong said angrily.

Her sister-in-law rolled her eyes and said unhurriedly: "Come on, you, if it weren't for the sake of you being my sister-in-law, I would not do it if you were so cheeky to send you back to Lao Liang's house." The Hong family is not short of a few bites, but there is no reason to raise children for the old Liang family, you should die!"

"Sister, even if you want to remarry, you have to stay in Lao Liang's house to give birth to the child before making plans. Maybe Li Hui will come back after the child is born? He was admitted as a scholar at a young age. You might be able to be elected to be an official in the future, so you will be the wife of an official by then? Just bear with it, ah!"

It also revolves around pregnancy and childbirth. Hong's house in Jinjishan Village is full of complaints and disgust, while Qianlixiang shop in Changqiao Town is filled with a strong festive atmosphere.

In the room, Liang Yuzhong and his wife, Sun Yuxia and his wife, Sun Erhu, Sun Yubao, Qinya, and Jinxi all gathered together. Everyone's eyes were focused on Sun. It was red, and Liang Yuzhong beside her had never closed his mouth in a smile.

Because, in the afternoon, Jinxi accompanied Sun to the time-honored medical clinic in Changqiao Town, and invited the old Chinese doctor there to treat the edema on Sun's body. Sun is now pregnant and needs medication. To be cautious, the old Chinese doctor only prescribed some mild and nourishing medicines, and wrote two earthen prescriptions for edema.

Jin Xi asked an old Chinese doctor to take Sun's pulse, and confirmed that there was indeed more than one fetus in Sun's womb.

"Sister, I just feel puzzled. How can you have such a big and bizarre belly? The ones who dare to have feelings are the twins!" Sun Yuxia said excitedly, her eyes swept around Jinxi and Sun Erhu: "I want to come here I was a little scared, if it wasn't for Xi'er and Erhu who went back and saw that you were edema and worried, they took you out of the mountain. How can there be such a capable woman in the ditch to deliver your baby?"

"I didn't expect that I haven't moved for several years, and now I'm pregnant with two!" Sun said.

"Sister, this is God's compensation for you, and sent you back the baby that was broken at that time!" Sun Yuxia said happily, Sun and Liang Yuzhong looked at each other, and the couple's eyes showed the joy of finding it and grateful.

Jin Xi pursed her lips and smiled, but she didn't agree with Sun Yuxia's words in her heart.It is said in the physiology class that adult women release one or two eggs every month, and the eggs survive in the body for a certain period of time. The egg will die.

Mrs. Sun and Liang Yuzhong had a child a few years ago. Now, Mrs. Sun is pregnant again. In the future, she may continue to conceive, but it is impossible for Mrs. Sun to be pregnant with the child at the beginning. If she loses it, it is true. lost.

However, people in this era are superstitious in their bones and believe in the cycle of cause and effect. That's why Sun Yuxia and Sun Shi are now saying that the child was sent back by God again.

Jin Xi pursed her lips, she has never been a believer, her consistent principle is to cherish and protect what you have, what you want, create by yourself, leave your grievances to others, and be kind to yourself.

The child was also created by Liang Yuzhong and Sun, but Jinxi and Jinrou are different. Similarly, the child that Sun died a few years ago has the same blood as the child in her belly now. related, but not the same.

Wending didn't know where he heard the news, but in the morning of the next day, he actually bought a gift and came to Qianlixiang to visit Mrs. Sun.Mrs. Sun hadn't seen Wending for a long time, and she was very flattered to see Wending like this, and called Jin Xi to stay at the shop for lunch.

Wen Ding looked at Jin Xi at the side, as if asking for her opinion. Jin Xi was stunned for a moment, thinking that Wen Ding's questioning eyes were a little funny, and said, "Brother Wen, my mother wants to keep you for dinner, if you don't mind If you work hard, stay and eat together, if you are busy, then another day."

"I have kung fu today." Wending said.

Sun said with a smile: "That's the best. Let Xi'er add a few dishes later. It's a common meal. Tell Yubao and Erhu to come over too."

Jin Xi smiled and said nothing, she naturally obeyed her mother's orders.

Mrs. Sun took out the cakes from the shop to entertain Wending, but Wending didn't show any courtesy to her. Instead, she just sat there eating cakes and talking with Mrs. Sun. It was the first time Jinxi found out that Wen Ding was still like this. His patience and affinity, he doesn't talk much, most of the time it's Mrs. Sun who is talking, he listens carefully, and occasionally inserts a sentence or two, which hits the point just right. Mrs. Sun has always been a person who doesn't talk much , but with Wending, the enthusiasm for speaking was completely mobilized.

Seeing that the two of them were talking so speculatively, Jin Xi couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled, she didn't expect that Wen Dingqing, a cold and cold person, had another side of being a friend of women!

"Mother, you are sitting with Brother Wen, I should have no stove ready." Jin Xi estimated the time, got up and walked towards the stove.

"Auntie has been sitting for so long, you should go back to the room and lie down to rest for a while, you have to be more careful now!" Wending said, "I'll also go to the kitchen to have a look!"

Mrs. Sun stood up with her back supported, and said: "Lie down after lunch, I will go to the front shop for a while."

"Shall I help my aunt?" Wen Ding stretched out his hand.

"No need, you go to the kitchen, I can do it!" After speaking, Sun smiled and went to the front shop.

In the kitchen, Jin Xi was squatting on the ground, looking for something in the vegetable basket.Wen Ding walked to the door of the kitchen, folded his hands on his chest, leaned on the door frame and looked into the kitchen.

When he saw Jinxi bring out a winter melon and a handful of shallots from the vegetable basket, and grabbed a mullet weighing more than a catty that was still jumping from the small wooden bucket next to him, Wen Ding raised his eyebrows and asked: "Are you going to make winter melon and mullet soup?"

Jin Xi grabbed the mullet that was slipperier than loach with both hands, and said 'hmm': "My mother is swollen, the doctor gave me a prescription for non-staple diet, let me stew it when I come back!"

"Oh, this mullet is really cunning!" Jin Xi said, she loves to eat fish, but there are a few types of fish that she is not good at killing. The kind with thorns, if you are not careful, you will cut your fingers.Another kind is mullet and catfish, which are slippery and not easy to use.

Wen Ding watched Jin Xi compete with the mullet, shook his head with a smile, and said, "I'll do it!" As he said that, he rolled up his sleeves and walked towards this side, squatting down, and took it from Jin Xi's hand. That mullet.

Jin Xi glanced at Wending, he was wearing a white robe with arrow sleeves and a jade belt around his waist today, he has a handsome figure, clear eyebrows and clear eyes, his gestures are free and easy.

"Brother Wen, let me do it, this job of killing fish is dirty and fishy, ​​I'm afraid it will stain your clothes." Jin Xi said.

Wending was pressing the fish with one hand and wielding the knife with the other, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he said, "It's okay, just wash it if it gets dirty, go and peel the wax gourd!"

Even so, Jin Xi had no choice but to let him go, picked up the wax gourd, carefully cut off a thin circle, peeled the skin and cut into pieces.Turning her head to look over there, Wending handled the mullet neatly, bent over and cleaned the internal organs of the fish carefully in the bucket, leaving her only a handsome side face with a focused and gentle expression.

Jin Xi looked at it, her eyes softened, and the corners of her mouth were slightly hooked up.With steady help, Jin Xi quickly packed the mullet and wax gourd in an earthen pot and stewed it on a small stove.

"Liang Jinlan's silk flowers and rice wine are just as we guessed that night, there is indeed something wrong." Wen Ding washed his hands, leaned against the door frame, followed Jin Xi's busy figure around the pot, and said lightly.

"The wine brought by Yang Feng is mixed with a medicinal powder that makes people easily get angry and hot. In Chinese medicine, it is called red bean powder. It is usually used for warming and tonic. It is not a serious problem in itself. But red bean powder Once it meets the powder of Fragrant Bamboo Flower, the two are fused together, which can easily induce emotion and confusion."

Jin Xi paused her chopping hand, looked at Wending with a little surprise, and said, "So, Liang Jinlan was really prepared for the purpose of planning you, Brother Wen? It's a pity that she moved a rock and shot herself in the foot , the person who broke into the house was Yang Feng, and she didn't have time to tell the difference, Yang Feng was hit by the trick and lost consciousness, and then what happened next?"

Wen Ding nodded casually, and said: "That's right! Your cousin probably doesn't understand those things. According to my information, Yang Feng is a frequent visitor to those Goulan courtyards in Wanghai County. The trick was provided by Liang Jinlan, but the things must have been obtained by Yang Feng."

Jin Xi took a deep breath and frowned. She always thought that she traveled to a farmhouse. Even if she lived in a small town, it was a small place with simple folk customs. She didn't expect that the people around her would still show those dirty tricks.

"Recalling what happened that night, I still feel ashamed of you, Brother Wen. Fortunately, my cousin and Yang Feng have already been punished, and they deserve it," Jin Xi said.

"Those who dare to plot against me, this is just the beginning." Wending said indifferently, his eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a flash of coldness in his eyes, which was fleeting.
