pastoral wedding

Chapter 59
The Feng family was about to take the baby out, and the midwife never came out by herself, so Su Shuang didn't have a chance to ask questions, but she couldn't just let someone take the baby away just because she didn't know.

Su Jin couldn't bear it anymore, stretched out her hand and pushed open the door of the old house and walked in, just blocking the Feng family and the midwife who had just come out with the baby.

Liu Yi held a torch and followed behind the sisters of the Su family. Seen by the light of the fire, the members of the Feng family lowered their heads unnaturally, as if they wanted to tuck the child in their arms more, so as to keep the child out of the darkness.

Su Jin snatched the sleeping baby over with one stride, and the Feng family was caught off guard, so she snatched it away.Hastily reprimanded, "Whose child is this, what is this for?"

Mrs. Lu hid in the house and never came out. When Mrs. Lu heard the movement, she asked Su Mei to come out with her.Seeing the child in Su Jin's arms, she said angrily, "Girl Jin, what are you doing? Hurry up and give the child to this aunt!"

"Second aunt wants to sell the child, right?" Su Jin raised her neck and said loudly.

Little Lu's heart tightened. Although it was fine to sell children, everyone secretly sold them. If they sold their own children, they had to do it in a fair manner and be laughed at by the villagers when they found out.

"What are you shouting about! I'm not selling the child, because I can't take care of it anymore, and I want to give the child to your aunt." She hurriedly explained.

"Send?" Su Jin shook her head with a smile, "I don't know any aunt, I only know that this is from Feng's family, a grocery store in the town. There are three sons in her family, and the youngest one is a fool with a brain problem. She wants to buy a daughter." The baby is for the youngest son to be a child bride in the future, am I right? The Feng family?"

The Feng family didn't expect that the person who came would know his details, and he showed a panicked look, "My youngest son is not an idiot, he just isn't clear-sighted, I'm asking the doctor to treat him, he will definitely be cured."

"It seems to be true?" Su Jin carefully handed the child in her arms to Dahe, and then she took a few steps forward and walked to the second aunt, "Second aunt, did you hear that? You want to buy a child to buy a child bride-in-law for your silly little son, are you really so cruel? Do you want to give the child born in October of your pregnancy to others? Do you know that if you are so cruel, this child's life will be ruined? .”

"This..." Xiao Lu choked for a moment and hesitated.Su Mei gave her mother a hand, and said softly but firmly: "Have you forgotten the look on your father's face when he saw this child? Have you forgotten what grandma said that disliked you? Have you forgotten that grandma told you that you must have a son?" ? If you keep this child, you won't be able to conceive another child for a year or so, right?"

The child has to be raised by herself after birth, and Lu will not let her look after her. Her natal mother has to take care of her brother's son and has no time to look after the child. Meier has to take care of Qing'er and do housework. Little Lu After pondering for a while, as if he had made a decision in his heart, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Feng's family, but the words were addressed to Su Jin, "Don't allow you to be troublesome, the child was born by me, so I can do whatever I want, It doesn't take a junior like you to teach, sister-in-law of the Feng family, take the child away." After saying that, she turned around resolutely and wanted to go back to the house.

"Second Aunt, are you really so cruel-hearted that you don't want her anymore? Is she your own daughter?" Su Jin asked again unwillingly. She really couldn't believe that there would be such a cruel mother in the world. Didn't you seriously raise her? Can't afford a child.

Only Xiao Lu's back and Su Mei's ironic smile answered her.

"Is it possible that this child will have nothing to do with you in the future?" She asked again.

Xiao Lu entered the house with a "huh", closed the door, and soon the lights in the house went out, and it was dark outside.

Seeing this, the Feng family hurriedly snatched the child and left the gate of the Su family's old house together with the midwife. Before they could get into the carriage, they were stopped by Liu Yi. She shouted in panic, "What else do you want to do? The mother of the child has sold the child to me."

"It was sold to you." Su Jin put away the sadness in her heart and forced a smile, "But you can sell the child to us."

"Why should I sell the child to you again, I won't sell it!"

Su Jin stepped forward and grabbed her by the neck, "Don't sell? If you say you don't sell again, I'll... strip you naked and tie you to a tree! I see if you can afford to lose this person!" She wanted to say that she would announce this matter to the public, but she thought that this kind of thing is normal in this era, even if everyone knows it, it will not be a big deal, so she changed her mouth. .

Liu Yi was surprised when he heard the words, apparently also surprised by Su Jin.

"Do you dare?!" People always instinctively have a fear of threats in the dark.The Feng family took a step back, trying to shrink their bodies behind the midwife. The midwife was also very surprised, they were all from the same village. As far as she knew, the children of the Su family were all gentle and honest, Of course, apart from that cold second child, what she didn't expect was that Su Jin's words were so threatening.

"Girl Jin, don't act recklessly!" As an elder, the midwife put on the airs of an elder, thinking that Su Jin would be afraid.Unexpectedly, Su Jin immediately took out a sharp knife from her arms, "I almost forgot about you, let me say it again, no matter who you two are, as long as you dare to refuse me or tell me about this matter, I will Just take someone naked and tie them to the big tree at the head of the village, I will do what I say, you can give it a try if you don’t believe me, but please think clearly, the consequences are not something you can bear.”

The Feng family said, "Aren't you afraid that we will sue the officials?!" The voice was weak and weak.

"Go," Su Jin smiled badly, "I'll tell you the truth, my father is the owner of Su Ji Restaurant, my name is Su Jin, you can sue us if you want." After finishing speaking, he added, "Forgot Just to tell you, my eldest sister married into the Han family a few months ago, and now she is the youngest wife of the Han family. The girl from County Magistrate Liu’s family and I are best friends. She even came to Liushu Village with me a few days ago. The whole Willow Village knows it, you can go and inquire about it."

The Feng family immediately turned to look at the midwife, who nodded resignedly.The Feng family has nothing to say, let alone the county magistrate Liu and the Han family, she can't afford to provoke even a Suji restaurant.She walked out slowly and handed the child in her hand to Su Jin, and was about to get into the carriage and leave, but Su Shuang grabbed her by the collar, so frightened that she begged for mercy, "Girls, please forgive me." Well, I will return the children to you."

Su Jin threw her a money bag, "There are 60 taels in it, and we won't let you make this trip for nothing, and we will give you an extra ten taels of silver for travel expenses. If you sign this contract, the child will be ours." Then he took out a paper deed from his bosom, forced the Feng family's handprint, watched her drive the carriage away, and then drove the midwife away.

At this time, Qiu Liang also pulled his carriage out of his yard, and brother Shuo had already fallen asleep in it.Seeing the child in Su Jin's arms, Su Shuang hesitated, "How about returning this child to Second Aunt? It's okay to give it to Grandma."

Su Jin shook her head, and said with a sneer, "If you give this child to them, then wait to be sold again, or take it back first before making any plans."

"Girl, give it to me." Da He took it, carried the child into the carriage.

The night was still hazy, and Liu Yi drove the carriage unhurriedly. He thought he could see the Feng family's carriage, but he didn't.Originally, she admired her as a woman driving a carriage alone from the town in the dark, but it seemed that was not the case, she might have gone to a relative's house.

The oil lamp was lit in the carriage, and the child was sleeping soundly in Da He's arms, and the little mouth was still slamming.Su Jin held the lamp and looked closer, the child was only two days old, she couldn't see anything, and her skin wasn't that good, she was just such a small person, thinking about what happened to her made people feel sad It hurt like a pinprick.

It was late at night when I got back to the house in the town. I knocked on the door, and it was a guy named Sun Zhu from Su Ji who opened the door. He was a foreigner, had no family members, and had no place to live. At first, he rented a house outside. Later, when the deadline for the house came up, Su Wenshan softened his heart, so he let him live at home, and by the way, he could show the door after work.

Seeing them coming back, Sun Zhu hurriedly helped to bring the carriage in, and said with a smile, "Master Biao and the girls are finally back, the master and wife are waiting impatiently."

Are parents still asleep?Su Jin was a little moved, but also a little bit sorry, because she couldn't bear it, and her family members would also worry about it.

After entering the inner courtyard, I saw that her parents were really still waiting in the living room. When they saw them coming in, they didn't ask anything else, and went to see the children first.Mrs. Liu took it over and held it in her arms, touched the child's little hand pitifully and sighed: "Your second aunt is really cruel, she is willing to give up such a cute child, what a crime."

Su Wenshan also sighed, "Okay, okay, the children are tired too, you all go back to sleep."

Over there, Liu Yi had already carried Brother Shuo back to his room. Hearing that his uncle said he was leaving, he didn't go back to his room to sleep. It wasn't because he was tired, but because he was afraid of spring.

The child suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Liu Shi, and burst into tears.Mrs. Liu said with a smile: "This child is hungry." After speaking, he ordered Hongxing to bring out the warm milk in the stove.

Hongxing went in response.Su Jin looked at her mother gratefully, "Mother, how did you know that I would bring the child back?"

Mrs. Liu coaxed the child with a soft smile, and replied, "I don't know your temperament. You love to fight against injustices the most. I also know your second aunt's temperament. After fighting with her for so many years, she is the most It’s cruel, in fact, I’m not sure, it’s just for precaution, who would have thought it would really come in handy.”

Su Jin put her head gently on her mother's shoulder, "Thank you, mother."

"Silly boy, what are you talking about? Even if mother encounters this, she will bring the child back. What's more, don't you know that mother likes children? Brother Shuo is nine years old, and mother thinks it's impossible to regenerate by herself. Mother is willing to have another child, I like it very much." Liu comforted her with a smile, and she really liked children very much, otherwise she wouldn't have grown up with four children who were painful like bumps.
