Traversing the good life of a peasant woman

Chapter 18

With Zhao's insistence, Fang Dachuan finally didn't go to ask for a doctor, and the whole family lost the mood to eat after such a mess.Returning to the house full of thoughts, Wen Yue took an oil lamp and shone on the torn place, with an unclear expression.

When Wen Yue turned around for a long time, she saw Fang Dachuan packing her bag with her head bowed inside, "What are you doing?" Wen Yue asked in confusion.

"Pack up your things for you." Fang Dachuan kept his hands on, and took out all the money in the house and stuffed it into the bag. After careful consideration, he felt that there was nothing left behind, and then he tied the bag and put it away. On the kang table.

He turned around and helped Wen Yue to sit on the kang, took Wen Yue's hand and put it on her swollen belly, looked at Wen Yue and said, "I'm sorry, Yue Niang, I always thought we could live a stable life, but But I didn't expect such a thing to happen. I am useless, marrying a man like me, you must be wronged.

I thought about it and decided to let you take your mother and grandma to escape together. I'm here to support you. By the time they come to get your clothes, you should have gone a long way.Although it was a helpless move, it made you and the children suffer again, Yueniang, I'm sorry, because I'm useless, I have to let you take care of the family. "

His eyes fell on Wen Yue's lower abdomen. The guilt on his face and the reluctance in his eyes were extremely sad in Wen Yue's eyes. I'm afraid this little man is very sad now.When he just started looking forward to a better life in the future, the reality hit him so hard that it was unthinkable that he came up with the most helpless way in order to take responsibility and protect his family.Now he must be blaming himself in his heart, otherwise why would he always say that he is incompetent?
Wen Yue smiled at him comfortingly and said: "What stupid things are you talking about? I won't leave. We are a family. How can we do things like flying separately when a catastrophe is imminent? Besides, let a woman with a big belly like me follow Two elderly women are going out to escape together, you are not afraid that something will happen to us on the way, can you really rest assured?"

Feeling Fang Dachuan's whole body tense because of her words, Wen Yue put her other hand on their clenched hands and said: "So, don't think about it, I just looked carefully again, it should still be can be remedied."

"Really?" Fang Dachuan asked in a daze.

Wen Yue nodded heavily, and said affirmatively: "It's true, I'm a very good embroiderer! So, don't look so sad, just smile."

Fang Dachuan looked at Wen Yue and couldn't laugh in the end, but he hugged Wen Yue lightly in relief and said, "Thank you, Yue Niang."

Early the next morning, Mrs. Zhao knocked on the door of Wen Yue and the others, without Fang Dachuan and the others asking, she said it first: "I thought and thought, we can't do anything about it. Okay, so, Da Chuan, you take your mother and daughter-in-law and go quickly, I will block you here. Pack up and go, go, go, go quickly."

Mrs. Li wiped away her tears and said: "Mother, I have already said that I will not leave, I will be with you, let the children go."

"Why are you crying? I'm afraid others won't hear you. What's the matter with a bright face? I, Zhao Chunmei, have lived my whole life. Although I was poor, I never did a single sinful thing. There is nothing we can do about this matter? Let's go, let's go, you are better than anything." Zhao urged.

Looking at Mrs. Zhao who has aged a lot overnight, Wen Yue secretly blamed herself. She should have gone to Mrs. Zhao to say something last night after she thought of a solution, so as to reassure the old lady early, alas, she was negligent about this matter .

Helping the flustered Mrs. Zhao into the house, Wen Yue told Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Li about the method she thought of yesterday. After hearing this, Mrs. Zhao asked with some hesitation: "Yue'e, what is your idea?" Is it okay? Didn't you say at the beginning that you should embroider according to the pattern given by others?"

In fact, Wen Yue is not quite sure whether she can get the approval of the wedding dress if she adds some patterns to this wedding dress, but facing the worried faces of Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Li, Wen Yue still tries her best to be okay. Comforting them, she said, "Grandma, it's okay. I can embroider this pattern to make it more festive and auspicious. Why wouldn't they like it? Aren't the left and right sides just for a good omen? Don't worry. "

Mrs. Zhao heard what Wen Yue said so decisively that she had lost her mind. She couldn't help but believe the words, took a long breath, took Wen Yue's hand and said, "Yue'e, for our family, we have to do it again. Tired of you."

After sending Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Li out of the door, Wen Yue looked at Fang Dachuan who was worried and smiled and said, "It's really all right, take a look at you, take it easy, you always make me so nervous Woolen cloth."

Whether the dead horse is used as a living horse doctor, or it is the last struggle, Wen Yue always wants to try.In this era when going out is almost dependent on walking, if they really want to run, where can the three women and children go.It is estimated that they will be caught and brought back within a short distance. In addition, the population in ancient times is not easy to flow. How can the sudden addition of three women not attract the attention of others?

So the only plan for now is to add a pattern on the place where the silk is drawn according to what she thinks. Fortunately, the phoenix on the wedding dress is in the shape of flying with its head slightly raised. Add a pomegranate flower here, and add a few floating petals to cover the snag.

Pomegranate means many children and many blessings, so it won't look too abrupt, I hope it can be liked by the master, but it's a pity that she saved these high-quality gold threads, and she still wants to use them on the embroidery behind her to sell them. Good price too.

On the other side of the village, at Zhao's family, a family that got up after three poles in the sun gathered together to drink rice porridge.Zhao Mancang lightly moved the blue-stained arm that had been beaten by Mrs. Zhao, looked at Zhao Tugen who was about to sit down, and said, "You still have the face to eat? Little bastard, how dare you push me to you when you got into trouble yourself?" Bangzi, you little brat."

Zhao Tugen didn't care about Zhao Mancang's abuse. He quickly drank the porridge in the bowl, wiped his mouth and said, "Grandpa, you can't blame me for this. I was thinking of hiding behind others." , but those are all my aunt's younger generation, she can beat anyone. You are my aunt's elder brother, and that's why I hid behind you. Even grandpa, you dare to beat him to death. Grandpa, aunt doesn't take you too seriously, right?" He said at the end, there was no lack of provocative tone in his words.

As expected, Zhao Mancang's attention shifted to Zhao's body again, he slapped the chopsticks on the table, stretched the shoulder that was beaten yesterday because of too much strength, and gritted his teeth in pain: "Hmph, I'm here today!" Just go to her, you see if I don't go back and beat her all over the place, what the hell, dare to beat me."

Just as Zhao Tugen was about to clap his hands in applause, Xiao Erfeng reached out and slapped him hard on the head, glared at him and said, "Shut up."

Zhao Tugen pouted, got up and went to serve another bowl of porridge, squatted by the door and drank it "Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh".

Xiao Erfeng didn't care about his unscrupulous appearance, but said to Zhao Mancang: "Father, I think so, why do you think my aunt is so angry because a piece of clothes is broken, and asked for her?" Like fate? I reckon that the clothes must have something to say, if it is really like what my aunt said, it is for a rich family and we break it, then what shall we do?

In my opinion, don't rush to find your aunt to reason with, let's go out and find out what's going on, and make a decision when we have enough information, don't you think so?Don't just say that it's really what my aunt said, and we don't know how deep we got into it later. It's not worth it to suffer with them. How can we say that the clothes have nothing to do with us? Don't you think so? ? "

Zhao Mancang nodded in satisfaction, and said with a look of relief: "You are the smartest in our family. You are right. Go ask and see if anyone knows what's going on. Also, Quietly go to your aunt's house to take a look to see if your aunt is okay, if you are seriously ill, we must not get close, lest they steal our money."

Because of time constraints, Wen Yue embroidered almost from morning to night without leaving her hands, which really made her suffer a lot for her big belly.Fang Dachuan always frowns these days, and whenever he looks at Wen Yue, there is always a lingering self-blame in his eyes. Knowing Fang Dachuan's difficulties in his heart, Wen Yue doesn't know how to comfort him , I had no choice but to pretend not to notice every day.

After the incident that day, none of Zhao Mancang's family appeared in their line of sight again, which left the angry Zhao family with nowhere to vent. He wanted to go to the door to look for him, but he was afraid that the matter would become a big problem and someone who cared would hear it. However, it was even worse when it was passed on to the Zhu family.Under such concerns, Mrs. Zhao suppressed her fiery temper abruptly, and only waited for the Zhu family to take the clothes, and she would definitely come to the house to make a fuss before she was reconciled.

How did she know that the Zhao family had already quietly inquired, and after learning that Wen Yue was really embroidering a wedding dress for a rich family, they felt like the sky was falling.I am trembling every day, for fear of being implicated.They even thought for a while that it would be nice if they didn't know Fang's family.

If things really got serious, what would the Fang family do if the shameless Fei dragged them into the water?After the whole family agreed that anyone who came to ask questions must insist that they did not do it. Zhao Mancang's family was like mice in that winter, carefully hiding in their own home.Occasionally let Zhao Hao, the most inconspicuous in the family, go out to inquire about the latest news. For the first time in his life, Zhao Mancang began to worry about the comfort of other people's families.
