The peasant's daughter-in-law of crossing

Chapter 29

At noon, Father Xue and Yang Sanniang went home for lunch.It's just that at this time the house is still cold, and Zhao Di has just started washing the pot, which makes Yang Sanniang very unhappy.

Zhao Di was afraid that her parents-in-law would be angry, so she quickly explained: "Father, sister-in-law Lucui had a stomachache this morning, and then passed out again, so I went to help find the doctor. I helped her to drink water desperately, but the doctor pinched her desperately before she woke up, she was weak and didn't drink much water,..."

Before Zhaodi finished speaking, Yang Sanniang's pupils were dilated with shock, "What did you say? The doctor said that Lu Cui was poisoned?" Her heart was pounding. It seemed that Jin Hua had acted, but what about the barefoot doctor in the village? Can you see it?The poison was too unskilled.

Zhaodi nodded and said: "Well, that's what the doctor said. Afterwards, I went to the field and called Brother Liang Zi back. He poured the pig food from the house into Sister Lucui's mouth, and Sister Lucui spat all over the floor. There was also Bai Mo, and she slowly regained her strength, but... her baby could no longer be kept, and there was a lot of blood flowing down there."

Yang Sanniang was about to ask the follow-up, when she heard the noise next door.

"Zhou Lizheng, maybe she ate poisonous mushrooms. Liangzi went to the mountain to cut firewood early in the morning and picked some mushrooms. She couldn't wait for the morning to cook and eat." Jinhua saw that Lu Cui wanted to eat mushrooms in the morning, so she took this opportunity to take the medicine After going down to the mushroom soup, I went to work in the fields, and deliberately delayed my return home until noon.

When she saw Zhou Lizheng being found by the doctor, she was very flustered.Although this doctor is barefoot, he knows some medical skills. He feels that this is not like being poisoned by eating mushrooms, so he invited Zhou Lizheng.He also wanted to take this opportunity to establish a reputation as a doctor. If he couldn't even cure people who were poisoned by eating mushrooms, it would be bad for him to practice medicine in the future.

Just because of Lang Zhong's selfishness, it brought Jin Hua a lot of trouble.Originally, eating mushroom poisoning is such a good excuse.

Zhou Li was looking at some mushrooms left in the basket, "These mushrooms are the most common umbrella mushrooms, they are not poisonous, I ate them yesterday."

Jin Hua hurriedly answered, "The rest of this is not poisonous, I'm afraid that what she eats may be poisonous."

Although Liang Zi also felt that he hadn't picked up the poisonous mushrooms, he was afraid that there would be trouble in the house, so he just stood aside and didn't speak.He has picked up mushrooms for more than ten years, how could he not recognize mushrooms.

At this moment, Lu Cui, who was lying on the bed, yelled, "I didn't eat poisonous mushrooms, I know them all, someone must have poisoned me!"

As soon as she yelled, Zhou Lizheng came to ask her what she had said, whether she had eaten anything between the morning and the stomachache, and whether she had any conflicts with anyone at home.

Lucui cried and said that her mother-in-law treated her badly, but Liang Zi was still trying to smooth things out, saying that his mother had not treated her badly, and told Zhou Lizheng not to believe it.At this moment, Xue Jiazhi ran back somehow. Maybe someone in the village told him that something happened to his family.

As soon as he came back and heard the outline of the matter, he became suspicious of Jin Hua, but he didn't say anything out there.

When Yang Sanniang and Father Xue walked over together, she saw that Zhou Li was about to take Jinhua and Xue Jiazhi to the head of the town, and the head of the town would come to ask questions.

Father Xue said all the good things to Zhou Lizheng, but Zhou Lizheng didn't appreciate it and insisted on taking him away.Zhou Lizheng wanted to keep his official position for a long time, but he didn't dare to be selfish, besides, Father Xue never gave him a big gift.

When he arrived at the head of the town, Xue Jiazhi was afraid that he would be flattered, so he added more details and said that Jinhua scolded Lucui every day at home, and how she abused Lucui every day, beating and scolding at every turn, she must have done the poisoning.

Jin Hua is a woman who has never seen the world. After being cheated by them a few times and making a few detours, she accidentally made a slip of the tongue. As a result, the chief official sent someone to escort her to the county magistrate.

That night, Yang Sanniang sat by the bed and wept, "It's all my fault. I couldn't persuade Jinhua to cause such a big disaster. If she really wants to go to prison, how will she see people when she comes out? I won't want her again."

Father Xue's face was ashen, "You women are ignorant in doing things, why don't you know me about this matter of life and death? If you want to rest and go home, you can find other excuses. How can you poison the fetus? And this Nine times out of ten, the unborn baby belongs to Liang Zi, isn't this killing my own family?"

Yang Sanniang also knew she was wrong, but it was too late now, "I... I didn't hear Jinhua say that about Lucui, so I got angry with her. How can I get such a daughter-in-law?"

Father Xue sighed: "It's too late to say anything, Jia Zhi definitely wants to find another one. Lu Cui hurt her body, and she won't be able to conceive a child in the future. I don't know what Liang Zi thinks now, will he divorce her?" Alas, how did this family live like this?"

"It's not Jinhua who is poor, Jiazhi and Liangzi have nothing to lose, if they don't have a woman, they can look for more!" Yang Sanniang complained for Jinhua, "She was not harmed by Lucui."

"What kind of daughter-in-law is married in the family is related to the fate of the whole family. Fortunately, our two daughter-in-laws are considered sensible and polite." Father Xue said with emotion, "Did Bo Ming persuade mother to go back? Mother has lived her whole life I'm afraid it's the first time I've heard such a thing, and it's actually about her son's family..."

Father Xue stopped talking, he got up and walked out, "I'm going to persuade my mother, don't be overwhelmed and hurt yourself, she is already very old."

In the middle of the night, Bo Ming and Father Xue managed to comfort Grandma to sleep, and went home together.

When Yingniang saw that Boming was back, she hurried to the stove to warm up food for him. Since he came back, he was busy with his grandma's business, so he hadn't had time to eat yet.

Yingniang sat next to Bo Ming, watching him eat, "Bo Ming, although I don't like Second Aunt very much and think she cares about other people's affairs, but what happened today is too scary, how much Second Aunt hates it?" Only Lucui can do this kind of thing, Lucui is really that kind of person? If the second aunt is imprisoned, Lucui will have nothing to do, wouldn't it be cheaper for Lucui?"

"How can there be nothing. Isn't she unable to have children in the future? This should be true. If the second aunt wants to arrange her, she won't risk her life." Bo Ming worried, "Now Liang Zi It's embarrassing, Lu Cui's injury is like this, is he going to rest or not?"

Ying Niang said angrily: "If we don't get divorced, we will have to go around when we see Lu Cui in the future. This kind of woman is a disaster." She knew that Bo Ming was also very angry, but he was always very angry when he was in trouble. Be calm and calm, and will not say some angry words.

Boming nodded and said: "It would be fine if I took Lu Cui back. I don't know if Second Uncle and Liang Zixiang believe in Lu Cui's story. Haven't you seen Lu Cui crying so pitifully? She can speak so well when she opens her mouth." Coaxing people, I'm afraid that the father and son will be coaxed, and I guess the fault is all on the second aunt. It's not uncommon for a mother-in-law to abuse her daughter-in-law, and most people believe it."

Yingniang sighed, "Birming, what should you do if you meet this kind of woman?"

Bo Ming raised his head, "You're thinking that there is no such a hypothesis. If there is such a hypothesis, I will divorce her and go home, and then try to save my mother. After that, I will go up the mountain and continue to be a monk. I will never enter again for the rest of my life." Mundane."

Yingniang smiled slightly when she heard what he said, thinking that he was very reasonable.It would be great if Liang Zi could think the same way, but most of them are fans of the authorities, and the bystanders are clear, alas.

As soon as Jinhua saw the magistrate, her legs went limp from fright, and she plopped on her knees and made all the moves. Of course, she also told about Lucui's hooking up with a man.However, the county magistrate couldn't control Lu Cui's hooking up with men, but he could control her poisoning and harming her womb. After the case was cleared, she was sent to prison for three years.

This shocking news spread throughout Yongzhen. Some people said that women are a disaster, causing the in-laws' family to be ruined;

The Boming family was depressed for a few days because of this matter, and then they did what they should do. After all, this is the second uncle's family's business, and they can't control it.What's more, the second uncle himself is not sad at all, he has long been tired of Jinhua, so he can change a woman while he is here.

But Liang Zi is still struggling, he doesn't know whether he should trust Lu Cui, he was planning to go to the county prison to visit his mother these few days, but was stopped by Lu Cui.She said that her mother-in-law made her unable to get out of bed, and she would never conceive again, so she begged Liang Zi to stay at home and take care of her for a few more days.

More than 20 days passed in a flash, and this matter was gradually forgotten by people, and no one mentioned it anymore.

This morning, the whole family was having breakfast together.Yang Sanniang looked at the courtyard gate for a while and then came in, muttering, "I just saw Liangzi go out with his bags on his back, maybe he was going to the county to see golden flowers. When the wheat is harvested in a few days, we will also go to see it." Look at the golden flower."

The chopsticks in Father Xue's hand stopped in mid-air, "Liangzi went to the county, who will collect his wheat? It will probably take several days to go. The people in the prison are not so easy to see, and I don't know him. Can you ask someone, I’m afraid it will take several days before I can go home. When our family’s wheat is harvested, let’s help his family too.”

"Well, let's help Liang Zi, and then help someone to go to the county to have a look, and by the way, persuade Liang Zi to give up Lu Cui, anyway, she has already taken care of herself." Yang Sanniang slurped her porridge, thinking of Lu Cui Just be angry.

Bo Ming and Ying Niang are going to town again after dinner.Yang Sanniang was very happy to see the two of them going out, "In a few days, you can get a month's wages again, this time Yingniang will get a whole month's wages, the two of you add up to 490 Wen, right? I haven't seen so much money in a long time."

Ying Niang replied with a smile: "Well, when the time comes, I'll cut a catty of pork back from the town, and I'll serve meat to everyone."

Yang Sanniang smiled, "Okay, if we have money, our family will eat something good, don't suffer as much as before. When you get your wages back, it will be like last time. I will give each of you ten cents as pocket money. No, I'll send you fifteen papers, and I'll give you a raise!"

Zhong Ping looked at Zhaodi who had a slightly protruding stomach beside him, "It's good to increase the money, and I can buy brown sugar and melon seeds for Zhaodi to eat."

The whole family laughed cheerfully, and Yingniang and Bo Ming went out.

"Bo Ming, do you really want a child?" Yingniang thought of Zhong Ping's happy look when she was talking about recruiting a younger brother just now, and she was afraid that Bo Ming would be envious of him.Birming said last time that he likes children very much, and he has been tormenting her a lot these days.

But Bo Ming didn't answer her, feeling dizzy and irregular heartbeat, as if something big was about to happen, he was nervous all over.

Yingniang saw that something was wrong with him, "What's the matter with you, are you uncomfortable?"

Boming shook his head quickly, "I'm not feeling uncomfortable, I just feel something is wrong, is it going to change the weather?" He looked up at the sky, it was very clear, not as boring as it was before the rainstorm.

After the two of them left, Zhaodi still went to herd cattle, and Zhongping and his three brothers went to Ge Landlord's house.The beginning of the day was no different from usual.

Father Xue and Yang Sanniang went to harvest wheat in the wheat field at the bottom of the Beishan Mountain, and several other families were also harvesting. They talked and laughed while working, and they were very happy.

At this moment, Father Xue felt loose soil falling from the mountain around him. He looked up at Beishan, "Those people are digging something on the mountain, and they have loosened the mountain."

Yang Sanniang wiped her sweat and looked up, "Last time it rained heavily for two days, and after that, clods of soil often fell down, and the mountain has loosened. These people seem to be from the valley of Qishan. They are digging Herbs, don’t dig up the mountain.”

As soon as Yang Sanniang finished speaking, she felt that the top of her head was dark, as if something big had fallen.She and Father Xue ran as far as they could, and the other families were buried by the falling mountain before they could react.

Although Father Xue and Yang Sanniang ran out with their heads in their arms, they were still too late.Half the mountain collapsed, and they did not escape the disaster.They were joking just now, but now they are speechless.

The six people who were digging herbs on the mountain also rolled down, and together with the twelve people who were working down the mountain, a total of eighteen living people passed away suddenly, and there was no time to cry out.That's good, at least I didn't experience the fear of death, everything was so unexpected.

Bo Ming and Ying Niang didn't know what was going on, and when they got home in the evening, they heard the whole village crying.

When the two of them ran back to their house, they saw Zhaodi sitting on the ground crying alone. She dug down the mountain for a whole day but failed to find her parents-in-law, so she went home to wait for Brother Zhongping. After waiting for a long time, she did not see them. When she came back, she just kept crying, not knowing what to do.

It just so happened that the three Zhongping brothers also came back at this time, and when they heard what Zhaodi had said, it was like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and five thunders struck the top!They frantically carried their hoes and went down the mountain to dig.

Until midnight, the man was dug out, but the man had already...And none of the other families were dug out, because those people didn't run out at all at that time, they were buried in the innermost part.

The Birming family cried and howled all night, only Birming did not cry out, he was just crying silently.At this time, their grandmother heard the bad news and ran over, couldn't hold on for a while, and fell to the ground, dying.

Bo Ming kept in mind his master's teachings and insisted on taking care of the funeral for his parents.But at this time, there are still people taking advantage of this opportunity to rob, and usually only need [-] Wen for a wooden coffin, but it costs [-] Wen, because so many people in the village have passed away, and the coffin seller will not worry about not being able to sell them, I am afraid that when the time comes Every family has to fight for it.

For the whole funeral, apart from the wooden coffin and funeral expenses, the Birming family spent a total of [-] Wen, all of which were borrowed from the second and third uncles, uncles, and aunts.

The second and third uncles took care of grandma's funeral and borne all the expenses of grandma, without asking the Boming family to pay or worry about it.Grandma is old, and she doesn't feel much pain when she dies, but the Boming family is already in deep pain. Both parents are dead, who can bear it.

On the seventh day, the Boming family witnessed the burial of Father Xue and Yang Sanniang.Yingniang, Zhaodi, Zhongping and the others cried all day in front of the grave, but Bo Ming still only shed tears and did not cry out.

When it was dark, the whole family walked on the way home supporting each other.Bo Ming was walking with weak legs when suddenly he fell forward and fell unconscious...

In the past few days, he had been carrying it hard and suppressing it, but now he couldn't bear it anymore and collapsed.

Seeing this, Yingniang rushed forward and cried, "Birming! Birming! What's wrong with you?"

No matter how Yingniang and Zhongping pushed Boming's body, Boming didn't respond at all, and the whole family burst into tears again in fright.

Yingniang cried and shouted: "Don't cry, Boming is not dead, he just passed out. Zhongping, Shuchang, Jiwang, let's carry your eldest brother to the Foyun Temple together. His master knows his Illness, maybe there is a way!"

It was not until midnight that they carried Birming up the mountain.Kong Xuan hurriedly asked his disciples to boil the medicine, while he threw Yingniang and the others out of the outer room.

He carefully acupunctured and massaged every blood vessel in his body, and then gave him medicine to drink. When he felt that he was almost done, he sat and recited scriptures for Boming for a whole night.

That night, Yingniang almost went crazy.Although she knew that Birming's life would not be in danger, she didn't want him to feel any discomfort.Although they had only been together for two months, she already loved him deeply, and she couldn't bear him to suffer even a little bit of pain.

She hoped that everything would be fine for him and that he would have a happy life with her as usual.

Now that the in-laws are gone, the burden of the whole family will fall on the two of them in the future. As the eldest brother and sister-in-law, they have to think about their younger brothers, not to mention that there are two younger brothers who have not married yet.In addition to the debt of [-] wen owed this time, if I don't want to find a way to earn more money, I'm afraid it won't be paid off in a year or two.

She hoped that Birming would be strong, and that the two of them would support the family together and lead their younger brothers to live a good life.Bo Ming suffered such a painful blow this time, and he doesn't know when he will be able to recover from it. His body will not be in serious trouble, right?

Seeing Zhongping and the others crying outside, she was very irritable, and drove them all home, telling them to do what they should, and live a good life.

It was not until the next morning that Birming woke up.
