Chapter 975: Marry Yourself
"Mother~" The woman couldn't help but retort: "Anyway, the child in my belly is your grandson after all, and the Zhao family really can't go these days, so please raise your hand......"
"Stop, stop!" The woman said coldly: "I don't want to hear you sell pity here, I think I worked hard to raise you at the beginning, just hoping that you can have a good home after you get married, and you can also help your father a little in the future, but you are good, the Zhao family is so rich, you have been married for the past few years, and you have sent back so many melons and dates, and now you want me to help you?
"Money, money, money, what else is there in your eyes besides money?" After hearing her mother's cold words, the woman's already unstable mood seemed to collapse a little, she stretched out a finger, pointed at her mother, and said angrily: " At the beginning, you knew that Lu Jie and I were childhood sweethearts and wanted to be together, and my father and aunt agreed, but what about you, you insisted on forcing Lu Jie away for money, and forced me to marry Zhao Jun while Lu Jie and my aunt were away, and now it's okay, Zhao Jun eats, drinks, prostitutes, and gambles all day long, and loses the entire Zhao family's property in the gambling house, and I am pregnant with his child, you still want to ask me for money, do you still have my daughter in your eyes? Or, in your eyes, am I just a tool to make money?"
When Lu Jie's aunt heard this, her face was unclear and very calm.
She put her hands on her waist and said confidently: "I asked you to marry Zhao Jun at the beginning for your own good, the Zhao family had so much land and property, so much gold and silver, and so many subordinates in the house, you married in and became a young grandmother, and the life of Mrs. Kuo, who lived every day in clothes and stretched out her hands to eat, opened her mouth, was it not good? Besides, then again, how do I know that Zhao Jun is such a useless loser?"
"It's too late to say anything now," the woman said, "I've been married to him for so many years, and now I'm pregnant with Zhao Jun's flesh and blood, no matter what, I'm his wife, I want to give birth to this child and raise him well, mother, Zhao Jun, I don't dare to do anything about it, and please help my daughter and help our mother and son get through this difficulty!"
"Hey, you're such a stupid girl, there's no help!" The woman said with a cold face: "There is no grass at the end of the world, flowers bloom in the wall and fragrance outside the wall, since that Zhao Jun is useless, why should you give birth to this child for him, after all, you are your mother's flesh and blood, your mother scolds and scolds, how can you bear to watch you suffer, child, you listen to me, find a doctor and ask him to get you some medicine to beat the child in your stomach, leave that Zhao Jun, and then my mother will find a way to find you a rich family, and you can't freeze or starve when you keep it there." ”
"Mother, what are you talking about?" The woman said: "A wife should have three obedience and four virtues, although Zhao Jun is not good, but he is still living well in this world after all, how can I ......"
"Ahh
The woman's face also changed when she heard this, although she knew her mother's virtue of seeing money, and she was willing to say so much in front of her at the moment, probably because she had already found a good family for herself, and even negotiated the price, but although it was not a good word to remarry, it was just a man after all, but if it was sold to the Qinglou, it would be a bad moral.
Over the years, she has followed Zhao Jun, and has seen Zhao Jun's fox friends go to the casino to gamble and lose, and finally sell their wives and children.
The woman saw that her daughter had already shown some signs of being moved, so she hurriedly walked up, gently took her into her arms, gently patted her on the back, and comforted: " Qing'er, do you know that you are also your mother's heart, your mother knows that you like that Lu Jie, but if you look at him, he can't do anything, except for digging birds' nests on trees and digging sweet potatoes in the ground, he will only run out to fight with others, he and his mother who no one wants have been able to survive for so many years by relying on your father's help, what good life do you expect you to have after marrying him?"
After listening to her mother's words, although the woman still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, because she said bad things about Lu Jie she liked, but she also knew that part of what her mother said was also the truth, although Lu Jie's person was very good, but if she wanted to live, she was indeed the same as her mother, and she couldn't see any hope from him.
What's more, she is a very soft-eared person, and her recent situation is indeed very bad, and being coaxed by her mother so softly, the kindness in her heart was immediately shaken.
Jiang Ning, who was hiding behind the big tree in the distance, knew that something was wrong as soon as he saw the expression on the woman's face, but he was not sure if he could change the situation after he went out, so he hid behind the big tree for the time being, ready to wait and see what was going on, and see if the follow-up development was making a decision.
"Silly woman, you have been sold by your mother once, and you are still so easy to deceive, you really deserve to not find your own happiness for the rest of your life!" Jiang Ning scolded in his heart with some hatred.
Sure enough, the woman knew that the matter was half done when she saw her daughter's reaction, and a triumphant smile appeared on her face.
Once the human heart is shaken, it is like a crack in the eggshell of an egg, and as long as the original invulnerable state is broken in the slightest, then the crack will continue to expand, expand, and expand, and then things will become out of control.
Lu Jie's aunt obviously knows how to "break eggs" very well, and she also knows her woman's temperament very well, and in just a few words, her will is shaken.
"Good daughter, listen to my mother, don't go back to see that Zhao Jun in the next two days, what's good about following him, if you don't leave, sooner or later one day you will be sold by him, you must know that if that kind of person loses in a hurry, he can do anything!"
"Hmm!" the woman replied in a whisper with some hesitation, as if she had been completely moved by her mother's words.
It can't be said that she is fickle, it is true that Zhao Jun has been married to her since he got married, and he is really not good to her, remembering that there is such a person at home, so he came back to live for one night, and he can't think of it, he has been outside for three or five days, getting together with those fox friends and dog friends, eating, drinking and having fun, when he has money, those kilns are hooked or something, and Zhao Jun has not gone around less.
And she is a daughter of a poor family, she can marry into a family other than a family, according to her mother's words, she is already lucky, where is she qualified to talk in front of others, so if you want to say how deep the relationship between her and Zhao Jun really is, it is also no, otherwise it would not have been married for so many years, and I still miss my former lover Lu Jie in my heart.
In the final analysis, the reason why she was reluctant to leave Zhao Jun at the beginning was just that she was bound by the chastity and etiquette, and was bound by the child who belonged to Zhao Jun in her belly.
But God didn't fulfill people's wishes, not long after she left Lu Jie and married Zhao Jun, the heartbroken Lu Jie left this place and never came back, she didn't know if he would come back, and she didn't dare to wait, so since it had been said that it was up to her, everything could only be arranged by her mother.
"Anyway, that's about the end of this life, so be it!" Although the woman didn't say anything, Jiang Ning had already seen her broken jar.
But from the woman's point of view, she lost the person she loved the most, her husband was like this, her mother was like this, and she was still pregnant with a child in her belly, in the final analysis, her own life was not up to her own decision, even if she really mustered up the courage to resist her mother, she and her child would not be able to eat a grain of rice at that time, and the result might not be better than giving in to her mother's arrangement. 258
After seeing her daughter's expression, the woman knew that something was going on, so when her mood calmed down a little, she said with a pleasant face: "Daughter, do you know that there is a person named Wu Lao Liu in Wujia Village, thirty miles away?"
"I don't know. The woman shook her head, she spent most of her life in the boudoir, except for Lu Jie's affairs, she had never heard anything outside the window, let alone Wujia Village, thirty miles away, even if it was in their own village, there were many of them she didn't know very well.
"It doesn't matter if you don't know, my mother told you," Lu Jie's aunt said: "That Wu Lao Liu was originally just a ruffian hooligan in the village, collecting protection money all day long, fighting and eating and waiting for death, so he has not married a daughter-in-law until now......"
The woman frowned when she heard this, as if she was already a little disgusted with Wu Lao Liu in her heart.
But Lu Jie's aunt just smiled when she saw this, and didn't care about it, and continued: "But he didn't know if it was the feng shui rotation or something in the past two years, he took the line of our county officials and started a business selling illicit salt in several surrounding villages, and it has only been a year or two, and the money in Wu Laoliu's hand is no less than that of Zhao Yuan's family!" He has been rich in the past two years, and he has been looking for a girl from a good family to marry as a daughter-in-law, but many individuals are unwilling to dislike his ruffian and hooligan background, but daughter, according to his mother, this person is not good-looking, and it is not what it used to be, you can't keep staring at people when they were down, so yes, as long as you nod, my mother will go to Wu Lao Liu's side to tell you and make peace, you just follow him, and when the time comes, you can enjoy endless blessings!"
"Isn't it a crime to kill your head by selling illicit salt?" the woman said without thinking.
Lu Jie's aunt immediately laughed, "The crime is the crime of killing the head, but seventy percent of the profits of this business of selling illicit salt are in the pocket of our county master, who dares to sue? Go to the county government to sue, is it Wu Lao Liu or the county master himself? After the lawsuit, whether to kill Wu Lao Liu's head, or kill the head of the person who sued him, this is all a question!"
The woman fell silent when she heard this, she was not stupid at this time, and her mother's words were naturally understandable.
"Besides," Lu Jie's aunt said: "You don't know how expensive the official salt is, although Wu Laoliu violates the law of our dynasty by selling illegal salt, but if everything really has to be done in accordance with the law, then we are afraid that there are not even three households who can eat salt here, think about it, who will be so idle and have nothing to do to make trouble for themselves?" It is true that Wu Laoliu violated the law by selling illicit salt, but the price of his salt is less than half of the official salt, and we ordinary people can afford it, otherwise who will have the strength to work in the fields if we can't eat salt? Even if someone can really sue him, do you dare to ask him? Sue down Wu Lao Liu, our county has no cheap salt to eat, and can't afford to eat official salt, when the time comes, I'm afraid that I won't even have the strength to work in the field, no strength to work, there will be no food, no food, we will starve to death after calling the imperial grain in the coming year, so yes, although you let go of a hundred hearts, as long as you listen to your mother, take medicine to knock out the child in your belly, and then follow Wu Lao Liu to live a life in a down-to-earth manner, the second half of your life will definitely be rich and smooth, and you will never have to encounter these bad things again, good daughter, you have also suffered with Zhao Jun all these years, and my mother is really distressed when I look at it......”
The woman said this, tears flowed, looking like a loving mother who pity the hearts of parents in the world, and Jiang Ning, who was standing behind the big tree, almost didn't squirt out a mouthful of water.
What's even more rare is that that woman is really stupid enough, she was fooled up and down by her mother like this, and she couldn't find the north and south in an instant, and it is estimated that it won't be long before she will take medicine to knock out the child belonging to Zhao Jun in her belly, and then remarry Wu Lao Liu, who has never met her.
"This woman is also interesting," Jiang Ning said in his heart: "Marrying someone else is so casual, first she followed Zhao Jun who didn't learn and didn't know how to do it, and she was pregnant with someone else's child, and then she wanted to beat the child off, and the hooligan Wu Lao Liu, who sold illicit salt, but now there is a Lu Jie who loves herself so much, and is even willing to use her life to protect herself, but she can bear to hurt again and again, and she is embarrassed to say in front of her mother that the person she loves most in her life is Lu Jie, it's really fucking shameless!" ”
To be honest, when he saw this, Jiang Ning didn't have the slightest good impression of the dead woman, that is, Lu Jie's childhood sweetheart's cousin.
There's no choice? Not necessarily, right?
Lu Jie is also a man, although he has lived under the fence for so many years, he never steals, robs, or does anything that violates the laws of the dynasty, compared to the ruined son Zhao Jun and the ruffian hooligan Wu Lao Liu, I don't know how much better, but he would rather beat the child and follow the two men who he doesn't love or love himself, but he can't be brave and follow Lu Jie, or just wait for Lu Jie to come back at home.
Maybe she really likes Lu Jie, but that liking is far from the love she says.
In Jiang Ning's opinion, what he loves more is herself after all, so when her mother proposed to marry the rich Zhao Jun and the rich Wu Lao Liu, she did not strongly object.
The so-called half-push and half-push, and then use Lu Jie, the so-called lover, as a shield, to show his weakness and powerlessness, it seems that he is forced to do all this, in fact, choice is choice, if a person is really unwilling to do something from the heart, Jiang Ning feels that even if the king of heaven and Lao Tzu comes, there is no way to make him change his mind.
Now that you have made a choice, whether it is voluntary or the so-called forced to be forced to have no way out, in the final analysis, it is a reflection of your own heart, and you can't complain about others at all!
As soon as the picture turned, Jiang Ning only felt that his time seemed to stop slightly, and then immediately began to flow again.
At this time, the sky had become drowsy, but the mother and daughter were still standing by the river.
The time was in the morning, and it was evening in the blink of an eye, and it was absolutely impossible for time to pass so quickly, so Jiang Ning immediately realized that although he was still in the same place, at the moment, it was already another scene.
"Mother, I don't want to marry that Wu Lao Liu!" the woman said suddenly categorically.
"Why," the woman's mother's face became a little gloomy, and she said coldly: "Why? You didn't promise to do it before, even the child in the womb was killed, and I also told Wu Lao Liu that I had accepted the deposit and dowry of the family, and now you tell me that you don't go, do you want your mother to die?"
"Mother, obviously you lied to me!" The woman's face also turned cold, "You have never told me before, that Wu Lao Liu is so ugly, and he is forty-six years old this year, one year older than my father, you let me marry him? Do you want me to die?"
"What's wrong with being forty-six years old, what's wrong with being ugly?" The mother said: "You are still young, you can't follow him for a few years, and when Wu Lao Liu dies, his money will be all ours, and when the time comes, you can marry whoever you want, even if you want to marry Lu Jie, my mother will not stop you!"
"Marry yourself!"
