The peasant's daughter-in-law of crossing

Chapter 56

In the past few days, Bo Ming has entrusted a matchmaker to go to Qian's house to talk about marriage, because Qian Xiucai is away on business, and Yinyue's mother can't be the head of the house.

In fact, Yinyue's mother still doesn't know anything about it, she just thinks that the Zhen family doesn't want her daughter to be a concubine, so it's fine to marry into the Xue family.So her attitude to the matchmaker was that she accepted this marriage, and when Yinyue's father came back, she could settle the date.

The matchmaker came to spread the word like this, which reassured the Birming family a lot, as long as the matter goes well, don't make too much trouble.

It was New Year's Eve, and before the New Year's Eve dinner, Bo Ming took his three younger brothers to the ancestral hall to worship their ancestors.All the men in Xuejia Village went to the ancestral hall, no matter how old or young they were.

Bo Ming didn't like to show off, so the firecrackers he set off were the most common, and the sacrificial basins he brought over were also inconspicuous.In order not to let the villagers know about Shuchang, he did not allow anyone in his family to tell the story.

Fortunately, no one in the village knew about it, otherwise Shuchang would be scolded to death in the ancestral hall, and maybe even beaten.Many people were jealous of his family's good life. If they knew about it, they would deliberately make a big fuss, saying that Shuchang had humiliated their ancestors.If this is the case, Shuchang will really be unable to be a man in the future.

Boming was furious, but what can he do, he is his younger brother.

After returning from the ancestral hall, the family gathered around the table to have a New Year's Eve dinner.Although everyone was very happy during the Chinese New Year, and there were more than a dozen dishes of good dishes on the table, but because of Shuchang's incident, they were always worried about what would happen, and they still felt a little depressed.

Shuchang himself felt even more uncomfortable. These days, he hadn't smiled once, and always kept his head down, because he felt that he couldn't lift his head up.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the whole family was busy paying New Year's greetings.From the second day of the new year, they will leave relatives.Because Zhaodi was supposed to give birth in the next few days, Yingniang just went back to her mother's house, no other relatives went, but Bo Ming took the younger brothers.

She wants to watch Zhaodi at home, although Zhong Ping is also watching at home, but he is a man and doesn't know about women giving birth, Yingniang is afraid that he will be too flustered and won't deal with it.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Bo Ming, Shu Chang, and Ji Wang went to his aunt's house.Zhaodi said early in the morning that she had a stomachache, so Yingniang ran to the neighboring village to say hello to Po Wen, hoping that Po Wen would not travel far in the next two days.

Yingniang just arrived home, and saw Zhaodi lying on the kang in excruciating pain, which lasted for a while.Yingniang hurried to the neighboring village again and invited Mrs. Wen.

Zhongping had never seen a woman give birth, and seeing Zhaodi in such pain, he was terrified and at a loss for what to do.When Wen Po and Ying Niang yelled Zhaodi to exert strength in the room, his heart pounded and he silently bowed to God, begging God to let Zhaodi mother and child be safe.

After waiting for too long, he heard the cry of a baby coming from the room. He still couldn't figure it out. He was becoming a father, so why did he feel that it was not real at all?
The cry of the child was quite loud. When he opened the door and came in, he saw the elder sister-in-law holding the child and looking at it.

Seeing Zhongping coming in, Yingniang hurriedly said: "Zhongping, come quickly and have a look at your little daughter, she looks like you!"

Zhongping doesn't really know how to judge who a child looks like, but he just thinks his child is good-looking.He carefully took the swaddle from Yingniang's hand and looked at it carefully.

After looking at it for a long time, he sat on the edge of the kang with the child in his arms, and asked Zhaodi to look at the child too.Zhaodi had a smile on her face, she looked at the child coming out of her stomach, and felt that she had done a very remarkable thing.If anyone dares to say that her child is not good, she will definitely go up and fight with them. The so-called protecting the calf should be her mentality.

Zhaodi gave birth to a child so hard, Zhong Ping would not say anything nice, but gave Zhaodi a commendable smile, and then he stared at his daughter again.

At this moment, Granny Wen came to teach him how to hold him. Granny Wen had seen a lot of big men with thick hands and feet who couldn't hold children. Such a small child's head was not stable yet, and he would dangle. If he didn't hold him well, he would hurt the child.

Although Zhong Ping is a man who does rough work and is usually not very careful, he knows how painful it is for his own child. After he learned how to hold the child, he has been holding it and refuses to let go.Zhaodi held it for a while and looked at it, and he took it over, telling Zhaodi to lie down and rest quickly, and not to worry about the child.

Yingniang paid Wen Po, and Wen Po cleaned up Zhaodi's blood and left.Yingniang was busy going to the kitchen to boil brown sugar for Zhaodi to replenish blood, and then cook some noodles for her.

Zhaodi's confinement must be taken care of by Yingniang, nothing more than cooking, washing diapers, and babysitting.

When Yingniang came over with brown sugar water, Zhaodi felt a little guilty, "Sister-in-law, I seem to be tired of you after confinement."

"Why is this so tiring? When I have a baby and confinement, won't you be the one to take care of me?" Yingniang blew on the brown sugar water and told Zhaodi to drink it quickly.

Zhaodi was also thinking about it, without her mother-in-law, their sisters-in-law could only take care of each other.

When Bo Ming and the others came back, they saw that there was an extra daughter in the house, and the whole yard became lively.At this moment, Boming took the baby from Zhongping and held him. He liked her more and more, and couldn't help but want to kiss her, "Yingniang, can I kiss her?"

Yingniang knew that Boming liked children, and seeing him like that, she couldn't help laughing, "I don't dare to make decisions about this, you can ask the child's parents."

Zhong Ping giggled, "Do you need to ask, if you want to kiss, just kiss."

Bo Ming had just kissed the child's face, and Ji Wang ran over to kiss him too.Shuchang actually wanted to come over too, but his eldest brother has always been sullen towards him recently, so he was too embarrassed to come over.Thinking that he himself is about to become a father, the feeling is hard to describe, if it is accepted by others, it will be a happy event, if it is not accepted by the world, it will only bring troubles.

Yingniang boiled sorghum rice soup to feed the child, and asked Boming to go to the town to buy crucian carp to feed Zhaodi.

When Boming bought the fish and went home, the matchmaker entrusted last time came and said that Qian Xiucai disagreed, but she didn't know why, and only said that he asked Boming to take Shuchang to his house.

Boming had no choice but to take Shuchang with him, and as soon as he entered Qian's gate, he heard Yinyue crying.

"Father, I am a member of the Xue family by birth and a ghost of the Xue family when I die. If you don't let me marry into the Xue family, I will have to die!"

Qian Xiucai was so angry that he jumped up and scolded: "The men in this world are dead or something, is it only the Xue family that has men?"

When Qian Xiucai saw Boming and Shuchang coming, he blew his beard and stared at him and said, "Who allowed you to use my daughter's birthday to match the horoscope? The Zhen family doesn't want her, so why must she marry into your Xue family? When did you agree to marry Yinyue into your family?"

When Bo Ming heard that he was getting married, he immediately became furious, "Okay, I want to marry or not!"

Bo Ming wanted to shake his sleeves and leave, but seeing Shu Chang's face was bitter, so he had to stop.钱秀才见伯明竟然这么说话，气得想上来揍伯明，他手指着伯明的脑门，“我要是把闺女嫁给了你们薛家，我就不姓钱！”

Seeing that her father and Bo Ming had fallen out, Yinyue was so frightened that she cried even louder, "Father, why don't your surname be Qian, I already have Shuchang's child in my stomach, even if your surname is not Qian, my The child must also be named Xue."

Qian Xiucai's eyes widened when he heard this, and he was stunned for a while, then he picked up the hoe in the corner to dig Shuchang's head, "Your Xue family has such a bastard, do you really think my Qian family is so easy to bully? I will kill you today..."

Yinyue ran over to stop her father, "You beat him to death, what about me and the child?"

Qian Xiucai was so angry that she slapped Yinyue. If Shuchang hadn't supported Yinyue in time, Yinyue would have been thrown to the ground.

When Qian Xiucai went back to the house, she was so angry that she threw wine bottles and chairs. When Yinyue’s mother heard that her daughter said she was pregnant with a child, she hurriedly came to persuade Qian Xiucai, “Why are you so stubborn? My daughter is gone, what will Yinyue do for the rest of her life?"

Of course Qian Xiucai knew this, and called Bo Ming in, telling his family to come over with ten thousand Wen.Birming said truthfully: "My family really doesn't have that much money."

Like selling a girl, Qian Xiucai bargained with Bo Ming for five thousand.Boming thought that he would have to spend money to buy new tables, chairs, cabinets, etc. for Shuchang, and it was impossible to spend all the family money on marrying Yinyue, so he frankly said that he could only give [-] yuan as ordinary people marry a wife. money.

Bo Ming didn't say much, just said that everyone gets married like this.What's more, if he spent too much money on this matter, Zhong Ping would definitely blame him for being soft-hearted, saying that he let the Qian family ask for it.

Finally, under the persuasion of Yinyue's mother, Qian Xiucai finally compromised.When Bo Ming said that he could not hold a wedding banquet, invite a wedding team, or play drums and suona, Qian Xiucai almost vomited blood.He vomited blood, and he recognized it. Who told his daughter to be so disappointing, and didn't know how to honor herself.

In the following days, Qian Xiucai cursed every day, scolding Yinyue for losing the face of the Qian family and scolding Yinyue for ruining the money.The reason why he went out before the New Year was because of Yinyue. Although the Zhen family no longer wanted Yinyue, there was a big landlord in the county who wanted to take in a concubine. One hundred thousand coins.

Not to mention the loss of one hundred thousand Wen, he thought that if Yinyue married into the landlord's family, she would enjoy a lifetime of blessings.How could he not scold him when things became like this?

The so-called good things do not go out, bad things spread thousands of miles.The fact that Yinyue had a baby before she got married was known to outsiders somehow, not only the people of Qianjia Village, but also the people of Xuejia Village.Although Qian Xiucai scolded her daughter at home, it was done behind closed doors.It is said that there is no impenetrable wall, and paper cannot contain fire. Perhaps because of these words, the story of Shuchang and Yinyue has already spread widely.

On the [-]th day of the first lunar month, Shuchang came to Qian's house to pick up Yinyue.It was supposed to be a happy event, but because I couldn't play drums and suona, and I couldn't wear red wedding clothes, the welcome was very depressing.

Originally, Yinyue felt very aggrieved by this, but she was surrounded by the villagers of Qianjia Village as soon as Shuchang took her out, and even some children threw stones at her and called her a broken shoe, "Silver Yue is shameless, he is a big broken shoe!"

Shuchang escorted her to the main road, and only then did she escape the bullying of those ignorant children.Yinyue burst into tears now, "Shuchang, where did I go wrong? I don't want to be a child, I just want to be a regular wife, I want to be with you, and I don't want to hurt anyone, why do those people treat me like this? Me? I even teach children to play tricks."

Shuchang comforted her, "It's not your fault, it's all my fault, I shouldn't..."

"I can't blame you. I did it willingly. At that time, I was afraid of being sent to the Zhen family as a concubine. I didn't want my body to be desecrated by a smelly man. That's why I wanted to give it to you, even if I couldn't be with you forever. I will also give the first time to the person I like. If it is not like this, my father will send me to a landlord in the county to be a concubine." Yinyue was crying all the way, and she usually talked about other people's rumors. She doesn't care about gossip, as long as she is happy, but this time she really can't bear it anymore. Just now, when those children threw stones, several big bags were thrown on her head.

She and Shuchang just entered Xuejia Village, but they were surrounded by people from Xuejia Village again. This time, it wasn't a child throwing stones, but a woman who poured dirty water on Yinyue and deliberately said: " Yo, I didn’t see it, I’m really sorry. Aren’t you a girl from Qian’s Village? Why did you come to Xue’s Village? You didn’t marry secretly, did you?”

Yinyue's face was splashed and her body was drenched. In this cold weather, Yinyue couldn't care less about the cold, and just kept crying.Shuchang kept protecting her, but in the end he also got wet all over.

The two of them came to their own yard, and the family could not set off firecrackers for them, so they had to walk into their house under the attention of the whole family.Before that, the family bought some new clothes for the two of them. After they put on clean clothes, they hugged each other and cried.

Yinyue has always had a hot personality before, but she has never encountered such a thing.She couldn't bear the thought of being insulted, stoned, and dirty water thrown at her like this.

Until dinner, Shuchang brought her food, but she couldn't eat it, so she just lay on the kang and cried.

Yingniang was making bone soup for Zhaodi who was in confinement at this time, and hearing Yinyue crying like this was not a big deal, Yinyue herself was pregnant, wouldn't it hurt the baby in her belly if she cried badly?Thinking that Zhaodi is still in confinement, the child also needs to sleep, Yinyue keeps crying, Zhaodi and the child can't sleep well at all.

Yingniang brought the bone soup to Zhaodi, and Zhaodi said: "Sister-in-law, why don't you go and comfort Yinyue, it's not a good idea for her to cry like this, I heard that she is about to die of crying. I think so too." , if it is placed on me, I am afraid that I will not be able to survive."

Ying Niang sighed: "Isn't that right, I was thinking about comforting her just now, I'll go and see her right now."

When Yingniang came to Shuchang's house, Shuchang was persuading Yinyue to eat, saying that after being hungry for half a day, how could she survive without eating.

Seeing Yingniang coming, Yinyue still couldn't stop crying.In order to divert her attention, Yingniang asked: "Yinyue, do you like this new wardrobe? This is newly made by the carpenter. And this table, look, there are patterns carved on it. "

Yinyue glanced at it, not interested at all, "Sister-in-law, how do you think I will go out after this? They are either throwing stones or splashing dirty water, I might as well die."

"You're talking nonsense, what's not going to die, you still have a child in your stomach, you have the heart to follow you to die before he's born? It's impossible for them to throw stones and splash dirty water every day, so don't go out these days. Wait After a while, everyone stopped, and no one is holding you back."

After listening to Yingniang's words of comfort, Yinyue felt much more comfortable, and was finally willing to eat.Yingniang saw that they had been tossed badly that day, so she told them to rest earlier.

The next morning, Yinyue couldn't get up from the kang.In recent days, she has cried a lot, her body is much weaker, plus the pregnancy reaction, and yesterday she was splashed with dirty water and suffered from the cold, and now she has a high fever.

When Shuchang asked the doctor to come to see Yinyue, the doctor was still not happy.In the end, it was Shuchang who offered double the money, so he reluctantly came.In the end, when she got a pulse, it said that Yinyue had a cold.

In the next half month, the family is really busy.Zhaodi and the child need someone to take care of them, and Yinyue also needs someone to take care of them when they are sick.

Yingniang recently washed the poop diapers, the water was frozen and cracked, and she had to help look after the children.Because it was already spring, Boming was going to plow the fields, and Zhongping and Jiwang were going to Nanshan to dig a reservoir.The reservoir has almost been dug, and in another month, we will go to the village to dig a small river.

These days, Shuchang took care of Yinyue at home and made medicine for her. Because he was afraid of hurting the baby in his stomach, the medicine prescribed by the doctor was very mild, so the illness went away very slowly.After more than half a month of tossing like this, Yinyue lost a lot of weight, but she finally survived.Because Yinyue was sick, she didn't return home, but Shuchang went alone with a gift.In fact, even if Yinyue got up, she would not dare to go, fearing that she would suffer again along the way.

Zhaodi is finally out of confinement, and she can get off the kang to wash clothes for her children, and she can also cook.Yinyue also got better that day, and came to bask in the sun under the wall of the yard.

She saw that Zhaodi was wearing a beautiful silver bracelet on her wrist, which Zhongping bought for Zhaodi yesterday, because it was Zhaodi's birthday, and because she was finally full moon, Zhongping went to buy it as soon as she was happy, let alone this His sister-in-law had told him earlier.

Yinyue felt very uncomfortable, this time she married someone who was embarrassing enough, she was bullied by outsiders, even her brothers and sisters-in-law were not considerate to her.What is it that the family doesn't have so much money to get married, but they have money to buy silver bracelets.
