Chapter 5 The Fourth Wife

Although the whereabouts of Lin Zhengfang, the male owner of the Lin family, are still unknown, and his only son Lin Shuyang also died under the shells of the Japanese, Lin Shulan picked up a life and came back, and the women of the Lin family are also a lot more at ease.

Shu Yufeng is a strong person, she has no children, Lin Shulan was brought up by her since she was a child, and she is her only life. Lin Shulan jumped to the ground, and Shu Yufeng's spirit as the housewife came back. Lin Shulan's recovery also made He Wanzhi's injury much better, and after Uncle Shen Qi saw it that night, he allowed her to walk around on the ground.

"Don't get in the way, don't take heavy things, don't stand for too long, don't get cold, and keep it like this for another month." Shen Laoqi withdrew his hand to diagnose the pulse and wrote the names of a few medicinal materials, "From today, change the medicine." I don't have these herbs in my shop, so let's go to Tongrentang to catch them. ”

He Wanzhi understood that this was going to use valuable medicinal materials, so she hurriedly stopped: "Seventh uncle, change it, I can raise it for a few more days." ”

"Pure nonsense! Can the medicine be changed casually? Shu Yufeng held hot tea to Shen Qi, "Uncle Seven, you can use whatever she should use, she can't leave her leg behind." ”

Shen Qidao: "Yufeng's words are right. But Yufeng, you tell Uncle Seventh the truth, do you have enough money to spend? ”

"Seventh uncle, don't worry, we have prepared in advance, I have stayed in the locks with Jin Zhi and Wenxi's daughter-in-law, and we have brought out gold, oceans, jewelry, etc. On the way, the little Japanese guns were lost, and the other daughters-in-law were almost there, I'm afraid there wasn't much left, so I went back and asked. It's okay, anyway, everyone will live together, no one will be frozen, and no one will be hungry. The five hundred oceans sent by Kaishan have not moved. ”

"With you, what am I worried about? I feel sorry for our family business. Why did our old brothers become bandits in the first place? Why are you being recruited? Isn't it just for a rich and safe! Forget about fighting your own life and death, your children and grandchildren must be able to live in peace and stability! Alas! I don't know what happened to Zhengfang and them now......" Shen Laoqi's expression was gloomy, and he only felt bored.

The women and children who came out with the Lin family, and almost all the men in each family followed Lin Zhengfang that night, and they still don't know whether they are alive or dead, and there is no news. In the past month, the number of refugees from the three provinces has increased day by day, and people from all over the world have said that the Japanese rely on the power of guns and artillery to kill people on a large scale, not to mention those who resist with guns, even innocent civilians are also dead and wounded, and corpses are strewn all over the field.

Hearing that the whole Northeast was such a tragic scene, Shu Yufeng, who had ridden a horse and shot a gun, and fought with people for life and death, was all worried, and the other women were even more panicked. I have nothing to do, I get together every day, I am sad and bitter, and my mood is becoming more and more cloudy.

"Eldest sister, this is not good. I don't have any energy at all, and life is not like this. Early the next morning, Bai Jinzhi and Wen Xi's daughter-in-law came to look for Shu Yufeng. A few days ago, Lin Shulan's life and death in the hospital were unknown, and they couldn't say it, but now they can't live in such a mess.

Shu Yufeng hurriedly sat down: "What do you have in mind?" Listen to it. "Bai Jinzhi's father, Bai Laosi, died to save Shu Haitian, in addition, Bai Baizhi was also the small leader of the team in the silk back then, and his riding and archery skills were stronger than Shu Yufeng. If it weren't for her irritable personality, Shu Yufeng's name as a young master would not be so loud.

"What's my idea? If it weren't for Ji Zong's little bastard, I would have killed him back! Let people copy the nest, and run away so far, there is no chance to fight back, and my sister has never suffered this kind of loss! Bai Jinzhi glanced at Wen Xi's daughter-in-law, "Sister-in-law, what do you say?" ”

Wen Xi's daughter-in-law sighed lightly: "Eldest sister, find something to do, you can't be idle anyway." If I didn't sit there every day, I would feel like I was going to be stunned. "The life and death of her husband, two sons and a son-in-law are unknown, and Rao is Wenxi's daughter-in-law has also seen blood, and she can't suppress the anxiety in her heart.

One is heroic and responsible, and the other is old and steady, both of them come to ask for ideas, which shows how difficult other people's minds are. As she was talking, Liu Jin'e lifted the curtain and came in: "Yo, Sister Jin Zhi and Sister-in-law Wenxi are also there." ”

Shu Yufeng said: "You came just in time, we are thinking about finding something to do for everyone, you have a lively brain, think about it." ”

After listening to this, Liu Jin'e first looked at Bai Jinzhi's face, and the latter's face was very normal: "Eldest sister asks you, what do you think I do?" ”

Liu Jin'e thought to herself, it's not that you don't give me a good face for three days, but she smiled on her face: "I will talk about it, and my sisters have to take the big idea." If you want to find something to do, it's nothing more than outside and at home. At home, cotton clothes and shoes are almost done; The house is rented, and there is only a limit to what can be collected. In addition to the needlework outside, there are waiters, and we girls and daughters-in-law can't do it, and we can't do it. These days, there are more and more refugees outside, and the market is not peaceful. Otherwise, I would have recruited people a long time ago and opened a shop to supplement my family. ”

Hearing the word "household", Wen Xi's daughter-in-law said: "Eldest sister, after we get here, all we spend is your money, which is not good." From this month onwards, I will be equal with you. ”

Five families, thirty-three people, more than a month to eat, spent Shu Yufeng's money, that is, the Lin family's money, Liu Jin'e has been remembering for a long time, so she took the opportunity to say "subsidize the family", heard Wen Xi's daughter-in-law say that she wanted to share it evenly, and couldn't help but show a slight joy. There isn't much money, she just thinks that people don't have it, and it's not what her family should spend.

Bai Jinzhi's eyes were sharp, and Liu Jin'e's slight joy did not escape her eyes, but she didn't bother to care, she only glanced at the past, but said to Wen Xi's daughter-in-law: "Sister-in-law, where are you putting me?" Three-one-thirty-one, that's right. ”

Wen Xi's daughter-in-law knew Bai Jinzhi's temper, and she didn't insist, but said: "Our sisters are easy to say, whatever you want." Chenglin's daughter-in-law still has some jewelry and gold, but Jingyi's daughter-in-law doesn't seem to have brought anything out. Two days ago, I happened to hear them talking, and I listened to the meaning of being a thing, and they looked at me and said something else. ”

Bai Jinzhi raised his eyebrows: "Jingyi's daughter-in-law is an idea, and she is also a strong one." But it's not interesting to come with us here. The eldest sister asked her to come over and ask? Her sister-in-law and younger siblings all listen to her, and the old Chen family is now her master. ”

Wen Xi's daughter-in-law said: "She has been married for a few years, and I'm afraid she is embarrassed to tell us something." Or ask Jingguang's daughter-in-law? ”

Shu Yufeng understood what Wenxi's daughter-in-law meant, Jingyi's daughter-in-law was married when the Fengjun withdrew to the Northeast. Not to mention the short time spent together, they are all peaceful ordinary days, no better than staying in a lock, and the affection is not deep.

Shu Yufeng was talking in the hall, and Lin Shulan was in the small suite on the side, listening carefully to their conversation. Shu Yufeng prepared a separate room for Lin Shulan, but He Wanzhi felt sorry for her daughter who had just been discharged from the hospital and wanted to take care of her nearby, so Shu Yufeng suppressed her thoughts and agreed that Lin Shulan would live with her mother temporarily.

He Wanzhi's room is not small, but there are not many things, there is a kang table in the middle of the kang, the outside of the kang tip is an old wooden box for clothes, the inside is a low wooden shelf, two beds of bedding are placed on it, covered with a cloth sheet, the futon is larger than the wooden frame, and it hangs down, just to cover a small suitcase under the wooden frame, in addition, it is two high-backed hardwood chairs on the ground, a matching wooden table in the middle, and the white walls around it are on the ground, which is even more empty.

Lin Shulan listened attentively for a long time, only to hear Jingguang's daughter-in-law's low voice, and she didn't understand what she said. So, she began to look at the small suitcase in a daze: if her memory after the combination was not wrong, that small suitcase contained all the private money of the second wife He Wanzhi!

He Wanzhi only has one child, Lin Shulan, but this child has changed the "core" at this time. occupies other people's daughter's body, then you have to be kind to other people's mothers, it is necessary to provide for the elderly, He Wanzhi is rich, she is much easier, anyway, she can take He Wanzhi with her wherever she goes...... But where do you go.....

Lin Shulan thought about it, but when she fell asleep and woke up in a daze, she heard that there was still someone talking in the hall, it was no longer Bai Jinzhi and Wen Xi's daughter-in-law, but another voice that was not unfamiliar but couldn't remember for a while.

The fourth wife, Shen Xiuying, tall figure, goose egg face, handsome eyes and eyebrows, cherry mouth, absolute classical beauty, Lin Shulan felt after seeing it, if this woman went to play the 87 version of the Red Mansion, she should definitely be the Baoqin who did not lose Baochai and did not let Daiyu, no wonder it would attract people to fight for her.

She should be twenty-four or five years old, but she looks older than her second wife, He Wanzhi, who is ten years older than her. Very tired, there is some black and gray color at the hairline, as if it has not been washed clean, and the long hair is pulled back in a mess, and a little disobedience hangs down like that. He was dressed in a blue cloth shirt and trousers, not very old, but like the cloth shoes on his feet, full of dust.

Shen Xiuying raised her eyes and looked at Shu Yufeng, who was sitting on the top with a sinking face, pulled away a faint smile, took out a small cloth bag, took a few steps forward, put it on the table, and listened to the sound of "bang", as if it was the ocean.

Among the four wives and concubines, He Wanzhi has the most amiable temperament, the strong eldest wife is silent, the shrewd third wife rolls her eyes and watches, the fourth wife of the party puts down the ocean, pours water on the chair on the left hand side by herself, and drinks it slowly one by one, and freezes without speaking.

"Fourth sister, where have you been these days? The eldest sister and we remember it very much. ”

Shen Xiuying looked at a few people before saying, "I didn't go anywhere." The second sister doesn't ask, I have to make it clear to the eldest sister. A few days ago, you were all busy, and I followed a few sisters from the former troupe to the temple fair. That's twelve oceans, big sister, you can keep it. ”

He Wanzhi looked at Shu Yufeng's face, and asked in a harmonious voice: "This is, fourth sister, you earned it by singing?" ”
