Chapter 114: Ning Family Incense
I don't know if I really can't stand the words of my uncle and aunt, or if I am afraid that Long Chengyu will be embarrassed, Ning Jiaxin's words explained, there was a little more blame.
"I don't care about this, since you have to ask a doctor who drives a luxury car to treat your uncle, it means that you are developed outside. You can't just give your uncle benefits, forget that my uncle and I were good back then!" Ning Zhengwu's daughter-in-law pointed at Ning Jiaxin and said.
"Uncle, aunt, didn't my brother's pension be given to you? Uncle and I didn't ask for a penny. Ning Jiaxin said.
Long Chengyu could see from Ning Jiaxin's clenched and loosened fist that she was actually dissatisfied with the behavior of her uncle and aunt, but she kept talking about the good past of the two and forcibly endured the behavior of the two.
"The pension is just that, the last time your uncle was sick, this cures, plus the body is replenished after the illness is cured. The money has already been spent!" Ning Zhengwu's daughter-in-law said with a roll of her eyes.
Ning Zhengwen came to the gate of the temple with the help of Long Chengyu on crutches, and looked at his younger brother and sister-in-law helplessly when he heard this, and said, "At noon, Jiaxin has just come back, and the two of you will run over and shout something! ”
"What's the joke here, if Jiaxin can really catch the golden beetle, this dam village, who dares to look down on us, who dares to look at our jokes. Ning said at noon.
"Don't dream about the two of you! Don't say that Ning Jiaxin and I are not a couple, even if I really have anything with her, I will definitely not give you any benefit. I advise you to leave quickly, otherwise don't blame me for driving you away!" Long Chengyu said as he rolled up his sleeves and walked towards Ning Zhengwu and his wife, threatening, needless to say.
"Don't, Long Chengyu (Doctor Long)!" Ning Jiaxin and Ning Zhengwen spoke almost at the same time to stop them. Ning Jiaxin even grabbed Long Chengyu's shoulder.
"Yo, I found a helper, my wings are stiff, aren't you?" Ning Zhengwu's daughter-in-law scolded.
"I still don't believe it, you are a descendant of a foreign country, you dare to come to our village to make trouble, and beat the elders!" Ning Zhengwu also pointed at Long Chengyu angrily, and was about to pounce, but he seemed to have some concerns. Because Long Chengyu is taller than him.
As soon as this action started, there were sparse flashlights in the morning, and it should be that other people in the village heard the movement and rushed over to see the excitement.
Ning Zhengwu and his wife knew their reputation in the village, and if other villagers came, they would definitely help Ning Zhengwu and Ning Jiaxin. Coupled with Long Chengyu's young and powerful appearance, Ning Zhengwu estimated that he would not be able to please him, so after pretending to scold a few words, he dragged his wife away.
Sure enough, the two hadn't gone far yet, and Ning Mingqiang and a few other villagers who Long Chengyu didn't know came over and asked about the situation. After Ning Zhengwen explained the situation, Ning Mingqiang and the others scolded at the backs of Ning Zhengwu and his wife.
"This vicious couple really doesn't want any cheekiness, and they are embarrassed to come to ask Ning Jiaxin for benefits!" said a villager angrily.
"Ning Zhengwu was not like this, why did it become like this in the past two years. Hey!" Ning Mingqiang said with regret.
The three of them ate about the same dinner. was so troubled by Ning Zhengwu and his wife, and he didn't have the heart to eat the rest of the few bites. Ning Jiaxin cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and Ning Zhengwen accompanied Ning Mingqiang and others to chat.
Long Chengyu excused himself to go to the toilet and walked out of the back door of the temple. As soon as he left the temple gate, Long Chengyu recognized the direction in which Ning Zhengwu and his wife had left, and started to chase after him.
He already had the intention to treat this couple, and since the two of them came to the door by themselves, Long Chengyu would certainly not let go of the opportunity. With his tracking experience, he believed that he would be able to find Ning Zhengwu and his wife.
It's just that there is one thing that makes Long Chengyu very confused. He felt that Ning Zhengwu and his wife's behavior tonight was a bit abnormal. The two of them seemed to be deliberately trying to make such a big noise.
If they really came to ask for money, it stands to reason that the two of them know their reputation in the village, and they should try to keep the movement as small as possible if they don't ask for money.
Whether it was Ning Zhengwu or his daughter-in-law, the performance just now was just the opposite, as if he was afraid that the rest of the village would not know, so he wanted to shout loudly.
Ning Zhengwu and his wife didn't walk fast, and Long Chengyu didn't chase far before catching up with the two. The two didn't say much, but hurried away, and soon walked into a half-old earthen walled house.
Long Chengyu did not rush to follow up, but quietly lurked outside the house, close to the door and secretly listened to the movement inside. The couple didn't speak the whole time, and he was sure that they would have something to say when they entered the house.
Sure enough, after Ning Zhengwu and his wife entered the house, they immediately closed the door and began to talk. Although he was outside the house, Long Chengyu had amazing hearing and could still hear the conversation between the two clearly.
"Jiaxin, this girl is really, if you invite someone to see a doctor for your brother, she has to make such a big pomp, and when she is passed by the fat aunt's mouth, it will not be spread throughout the village. Ning Zhengwu said with a sigh.
Long Chengyu couldn't help but feel a little strange when he heard Ning Zhengwu's words, judging from Ning Zhengwu's tone, although he had some grievances against Ning Jiaxin, it seemed to be more of a concern for her.
This is completely different from the indifferent and mocking attitude of Ning Zhengwen and Ning Jiaxin in front of the temple gate before Ning Zhengwu and his wife. This made Long Chengyu not know for a while what medicine Ning Zhengwu was buying in the gourd.
"Hey, maybe I drove here to save time. It's just that in this way, the cost must be much more expensive. That person is not Jiaxin's boyfriend, I don't know what Jiaxin relies on to pay for expenses, she can't fall for other people's tricks and do something stupid. Ning Zhengwu's daughter-in-law said.
"Jia Xin, like her brother, is decent, so she won't come nonsense. Maybe it's a little bit of money from work-study. And that young man doesn't look like a wicked person with a slippery head, Jiaxin doesn't say that he is a school doctor, maybe he is purely sympathetic to Jiaxin and came to help see a doctor. Ning Zhengwu said uncertainly.
"Hey, my eldest brother's foot has been crippled for more than a year, where is there any hope to be cured. This girl has always refused to give up, and she will only work hard for herself. Ning Zhengwu's daughter-in-law said in a choked tone.
Long Chengyu became more and more confused the more he listened, Ning Zhengwu and his wife obviously cared about Ning Zhengwen and Ning Jiaxin in these words, and they were really the same as before.
If it weren't for the strong confidence in his latent technique, Long Chengyu would almost think that Ning Zhengwu and his wife had discovered that they were eavesdropping, so they deliberately said these words to gain his favor.
Hearing this, Long Chengyu was almost certain that he had misunderstood the couple before. But what are their difficulties, why do people pretend to have two attitudes towards Ning Zhengwen before and after?
Long Chengyu almost couldn't hold it back, and broke the door and went in for interrogation. But after thinking about it, I dispelled this idea again, and decided to continue eavesdropping to see if there was anything to follow.
"Daughter-in-law, did you say that the two of us did that just now, will it hurt Jiaxin's heart?" After a while of silence in the room, Ning Zhengwu spoke again.
"Otherwise, what can I do? If those people in the village committee mistakenly think that Jiaxin has really found the golden beetle son-in-law, and cancel some of your brother's subsistence allowance or something, how can your brother live? Ning Zhengwu's daughter-in-law sighed and said.
"Hey, in order to be able to conceive a child, we spent all our savings, and we also used the pension of the Southern Army, but your stomach has not reacted yet, you say, is it retribution for the two of us......" Ning said in a low tone.
"Bah, bah, bah, don't say such unlucky words" Ning Zhengwu's daughter-in-law interrupted Ning Zhengwu's words and said, "We are doing this all for your Ning family to inherit the incense, and we are not selfish just for the two of us to live a comfortable and good life, what retribution will we suffer." ”
"Well, that's right. The eldest brother never married, and now he is crippled and has no children. The second brother has both children and daughters, but he and his wife left a pair of children early. After the sacrifice of the Southern Army, there are no men in the younger generations of the family, and our Ning family is about to have no one to inherit the incense in our generation. Ning said bitterly at noon.
Hearing this, Long Chengyu finally understood the whole story. Ning Zhengwu and his wife did take Ning Nanjun's pension, but it was not for covetousness, but to treat their couple's infertility.
The reason why Ning Zhengwu and his wife wanted to drive Ning Zhengwen away was because in order to cure infertility, the two had no extra money to support Ning Zhengwen, so they drove him out and let the village have some funding such as subsistence allowance to make ends meet.
Although Long Chengyu did not agree with Ning Zhengwu and his wife's idea of continuing the incense, as well as a series of abnormal actions made for this, Long Chengyu knew that he could not condemn this rural couple too much.
Even in the modern society that advocates equality between men and women, the idea of preference for sons over women still exists, especially in rural areas, and the idea that raising children to prevent old age and raising daughters can only be a loss of money is still very influential.
Long Chengyu listened for a while and then returned to the temple. Ning Mingqiang and those enthusiastic villagers are still there. Everyone had stopped cursing Ning Zhengwu and his wife, and began to discuss how to arrange the accommodation of Ning Jiaxin and Long Chengyu.
Because there is only one wooden bed in the temple, it can only sleep Ning Zhengwen alone. Ning Mingqiang and several other villagers said that they had beds at home, and they could arrange for Long Chengyu or Ning Jiaxin to live.
Ning Jiaxin declined everyone's kindness. On the way here, she thought of a plan, and asked Long Chengyu to bring two Jianyi tents, one for each of Long Chengyu, and set them up in the temple to accompany Ning Zhengwen.
Everyone saw that Ning Jiaxin was resolute, so they didn't insist anymore. After talking for a while, they all left.
"These uncles and brothers, they are all good, they have helped me a lot in the past two years, you will be good in the future, don't forget to repay others, especially your big brother Mingqiang!" Ning Zhengwen looked at Ning Jiaxin and said.
