Back to ancient times to open obstetrics

Chapter 49
There was a small bridge in front of Widow Qian's house, and the carriage could not cross it, so Du Ruo also got out of the carriage and walked along with them.Along the way, Li Shi and Liu Qiqiao walked ahead, Li Shi occasionally turned to look at Du Ruo, and asked Liu Qiqiao in a low voice, "Who is Qiqiao's handsome young master?"

Liu Qiqiao didn't expect that Li Shi was also a beauty controler. Although she lacked vocabulary, she thought of describing Du Ruo as handsome.Liu Qiqiao suppressed a smile and said, "That's the owner of the Lin Family Manor. He's from the capital. I heard his surname is Du."

"The one with the surname Du? Could it be the Du family from Baoshantang in the capital? How could he be with you?" Mrs. Li asked suspiciously.

Liu Qiqiao had no choice but to tell the story of her delivering the baby again. Of course, she omitted the terrible adjective of caesarean section, and finally only told Li's mother and child that they were safe.

While thanking the heavens, Mrs. Li said: "So, if it weren't for this incident, you would have lost two lives by running to Lin's Village today! This must be because of your Aunt Qian's spirit, you know Lin Zhuangtou is not a bad person, that's why he lured you over, take a look, he still has kind thoughts in his heart, right?"

Rural people are very divided into two classes, and some, like Aunt Liu, are always thinking of taking advantage of other people's homes and filling holes in their own homes.Some are just like Li Shi, who are honest and kind-hearted, have good thoughts in everything, believe in karma, and always have some leeway in dealing with people and doing things.Liu Qiqiao saw Li chanting Buddha with her hands together, and said with a smile: "Yes, mother, you are right, it is better to have kind thoughts in your heart."

Mrs. Li led the way with a lantern, whispered to Liu Qiqiao, and arrived at the door of Widow Qian's house after a while.Widow Qian's house had four walls, and outside was a fence surrounded by bamboo. Three huts were lined up side by side, and Widow Qian's body was placed in the living room in the middle.The suona team playing outside saw another mourner coming, and played the funeral tune without any haste, which was quite lively to listen to.

Du Ruo ordered the servants next to him to go up and give money for mourning.He was in a hurry to go out today, and he only brought a few taels of silver with him. He said to the accountant who was sitting beside him, "We came from a long way, but we did our best, and you don't need to record it, sir."

The accountant is the old man of the Tian family, the only one in the village who is old and can read.He took the money, turned around and said to Miss Qian beside him, "Give this young master three sticks of incense quickly."

Miss Qian started to cry when she got home early in the morning, and now her eyes were swollen like walnuts, and she held the incense and handed it to Du Ruo, trembling.Du Ruo took the incense and respectfully bowed to Widow Qian.

It was evening for my son, and there were not many people accompanying her at night. When everyone saw Du Ruo, they whispered behind their backs, saying that Widow Qian didn't know what kind of blessing she had, and that the son of such a rich family came to give her condolences.

Liu Qiqiao didn't care about Du Ruo, and followed Wang Laosi to lead Lin Laoer into the firewood room in the backyard of Widow Qian's house. Mrs. Li avoided the eyes and ears of everyone, and brought Widow Qian's parents out of the mourning hall. to the woodshed.

"Auntie, this is Lin's second child. He has already admitted that he has harmed Xi'er's mother. Qiqiao from our family brought it back to you, but you just sent a message. How do you punish this matter?"

Widow Qian's mother wiped her old tears and said: "People are dead, how can we punish them? It's just pity for the two children. The older one is not married yet, and the younger one is a little bit older. Although she entrusted you , but I know, you are also kind, you don't feel at ease when you don't want her to go, so you agreed, we don't have to drag people down like this, Xi'er, I'd better take her back to Heqiao Village, no matter how difficult it is for our family, A mouthful of food is indispensable for her."
