Chapter VI
Lu Xiaoyi slept all afternoon, and although his leg was very painful, he felt a little better when he fell asleep.
Xiao Ding and Xiao Geng stood on the side of the kang, two feet away from the kang.
Lu Xiaoyi beckoned, and the two shook their heads, but they didn't get close.
"Eldest sister, my younger brother and I came in secretly, don't tell my mother, we promise not to touch your legs." Xiao Ding looked at him with a pair of big eyes that could speak, and Lu Xiaoyi nodded busily.
Xiao Geng's index finger is small, standing in his mouth, and he keeps shouting.
Lu Xiaoyi covered his mouth and smiled.
Xiao Ding and Xiao Geng were both born by Lu Xiaoyi, so in front of them, they were not timid, they recalled the pronunciation of the local dialect in their minds, and tried to ask: "What about the mother?" ”
Xiao Ding pouted at Nunu next door, "Shen Qiang's father and mother are here, how can you talk to our father and mother?" ”
Lu Xiaoyi tried to say again: "What about grandmother?" ”
"Grandmother wanted to come, but was stopped by grandfather." Xiao Ding used a shouting word, Lu Xiaoyi knew it, and when he and Xiao Ding looked at each other, they both covered their mouths and snickered.
Lu Xiaoyi saw that his younger siblings didn't notice the abnormality of her accent, and he was complacent, and he was very satisfied with his language talent.
Who wants Xiao Geng to bring a glass of water slightly, and said with concern: "Sister, drink some water, your throat is dry, and your voice has changed." ”
Lu Xiaoyi's face was black, he pretended to touch his throat, coughed a few times, and then drank the water, and then didn't dare to speak anymore.
Xiao Geng watched Lu Xiaoyi drink water with a smile, and suddenly thought of something, raised his left hand high, and buried his head in his sleeve pocket rummaging over something. quickly took out a bamboo dragonfly, took out a mud egg, uh~ and turned out a beetle that was about to burp, and overturned it on the kang table, and the six arthropods and calves kicked weakly.
Finally, pull out a boiled egg with white skin.
Holding it to Lu Xiaoyi with both hands, "Sister, give you eggs." ”
The corners of Lu Xiaoyi's mouth couldn't help twitching, good guy, he hid it so tightly, and put it together with the worm mud eggs, he really didn't have any appetite.
"Little brother, where did you get the eggs?" Xiao Ding asked.
"Grandmother gave it." Xiao Geng blinked, lowered his head and said, "You can't blame me, it was my grandmother who suddenly appeared and forced it into me." ”
Xiao Ding glared and said, "Didn't the eldest sister say that you are not allowed to eat what your grandmother gave?" Why don't you listen to your eldest sister? ”
"I was wrong!" Xiao Geng was pitiful, and immediately looked teary-eyed.
Of course, Lu Xiaoyi knew why the original Xiaoyi didn't like Mrs. Lu, who was called by her grandmother to lose money and goods, her self-esteem must have been hurt, and when she saw her grandmother loving her brother in every way, she must be jealous in her heart, she didn't get the love of her ancestors, and it was inevitable that she would be lost, these complex feelings were intertwined, and they would always have an impact on a ten-year-old girl, words and deeds.
Lu Xiaoyi was an outsider before his rebirth, even if he didn't like Lu Pozi, it was from the perspective of a bystander, which was different from the original owner's dislike.
Her feelings for Mrs. Lu are definitely not as complicated and tangled as the original owner, if you want to say how strong her hatred for Mrs. Lu is, Lu Xiaoyi feels that she can't do it, at most she just doesn't like this person.
But now she wants to instigate her younger brothers and sisters to be cold or hate Lu Pozi, Lu Xiaoyi feels that she can't do it, not because she has a virgin, but because she thinks it's unnecessary, people like Lu Pozi abound, if you are more serious, you will not have a good life.
Now that the family is not worried about food and clothing, why should they let the simple hearts of their younger brothers and sisters be covered with a layer of dust for the sake of Mrs. Lu? A child's heart should be pure, isn't it?
Lu Xiaoyi looked at her well-behaved sister and innocent brother, she suddenly wanted to integrate into this family, but her soul is a modern person in her twenties after all, and strictly speaking she is also an outsider, so she immediately has a deep affection for the Lu family, she feels that it takes time, and the process of exchanging sincerity for sincerity is only unilaterally for her at present.
"Eldest sister, why don't you speak? I don't want eggs from my grandmother anymore. Xiao Geng's tears were about to roll out of his eyes.
Lu Xiaoyi took the egg with a smile and shook it at Xiao Geng, who immediately smiled.
The eggs were quickly peeled, Lu Xiaoyi broke a piece and gave it to Xiao Geng, and the rest was eaten separately with Xiao Ding.
While eating eggs, Lu Xiaoyi deliberately said, "It's okay, you can ask for it later." ”
Xiao Geng had egg yolk on the corner of his mouth, leaned over to Xiao Yi's side, and asked, "Sister, is your throat still dry?" ”
Lu Xiaoyi was choked and coughed violently, and even the big swollen bag on the back of his head was shocked and painful.
"Second sister and second sister, pour water quickly!" Xiao Geng kept shouting.
Lu Xiaoyi finally relieved himself, Emma, he was almost choked to death, this little ghost is too sensitive to sound, it seems that he will have to be vigilant in the future.
At this time, there was a noise next door, and Xiao Ding pulled Xiao Geng to sneak out quickly.
After a while, Lu Zhong and Yulan came into the house and sat on the edge of the kang.
Lu Zhong smiled kindly, and his eyes motioned for Yulan to say.
Yulan sat down beside Xiao Yi and said gently: "Just now, Shen Qiang's father and mother came over, brought some supplements and silver money, and let you take care of it, saying that they will pay for how much it costs." ”
Lu Xiaoyi didn't speak, his eyes were fixed on Yulan and he waited for the following.
"What your grandfather and grandmother and your father mean: If your leg is lame, you and Shen Qiang's relationship will be settled."
Lu Xiaoyi shook her head quickly, she didn't want to be tied up with a little fat man on the first day of rebirth, for a lifetime.
"Here's the problem, what the Shen family means: If you are not lame, they will agree to your relationship with Shen Qiang, if you are lame, they will not agree, and would rather compensate more money." Yulan's face was not good, and she felt like she was gritting her teeth in the end.
"Your father angrily tore up with Shen Qiang and his father, and this matter was not negotiated in the end, and your father threw all the supplements and silver money to them."
When Lu Zhong heard this, he slapped on the kang table angrily, "Shen Guigui is not a thing, he treats my daughter as a person, thinking that a few silver coins will do it, he thinks it is beautiful!" ”
Lu Xiaoyi shook his head at Lu Zhong, and then looked at Yulan, his eyes were really red when he couldn't speak, and his brain flashed suddenly, and he immediately pulled the quilt to cover his head and face, and said angrily: "If you don't marry, I won't marry that fat man if I die." "Pretend to whine and cry.
Through the quilt, I couldn't hear much change in my voice.
Yulan was distressed and hugged Xiao Yi, and cried to Lu Zhong: "Then the Shen family kid is a bastard, what's the good of marrying him?" Your daughter has been wronged like this, don't you feel distressed! ”
Lu Zhong frowned, pursed his lips, and did not speak.
"Lame or not, this will put her daughter on the tip of the needle, what does she think in her heart? His Shen family's abacus crackled, don't be lame, don't agree to marry if you're not lame, why? My daughter I don't have to worry that the tip hurts, and she won't enter the door of his Shen family if she is lame! Magnolia snapped.
Lu Zhong got up, "Don't cry, just listen to you." After speaking, he went out to the west courtyard, and it seemed that he was going to discuss with Old Man Lu again.
Lu Xiaoyi was happy in her heart, and continued to cry in the quilt, Yulan hugged her and coaxed her.
Xiao Ding and Xiao Geng came in quietly, and when they heard their sister crying, they also cried.
Xiao Geng couldn't help it, and cried, "It's all my fault, I hurt my eldest sister." ”
Xiao Ding also cried.
Yulan hurried over to coax the second daughter and her child.
Lu Xiaoyi covered the quilt and began to laugh again: "I'm not crying, I'm laughing!" Then, Lu Xiaoyi showed his head and face from the quilt, smiling.
Xiao Ding and Xiao Geng laughed again.
Yulan was tossed and wanted to cry without tears, and repeatedly explained that Xiao Ding and Xiao Geng were not allowed to touch Xiao Yi's legs, so they went out with confidence, leaving the three sisters and brothers to play.
Over in the West Courtyard, after Mrs. Lu learned of Lu Zhong's decision, she ran over angrily and scolded Yulan: "You stupid woman, do you have paste in your head?" You don't care about the money-losing goods you give birth, and you don't plan for her in the future if you're lame! The Shen family has a lot of land and a lot of food, and there is still a livelihood in the city, and Xiaoyi is lame and has no worries about food and clothing when he marries, what's so bad? ”
"Mother, it's too early to say it's lame."
"Early, it's too late to wait!" Mrs. Lu roared, "You can't get on the table, you have to grind and chirp everything, Xiao Yi and Shen Qiang's family affairs, you have to rely on me!" ”
Lu Xiaoyi in the house broke out in a cold sweat when she heard this, she motioned for Xiao Ding to go out and have a look, and Xiao Geng also followed.
Soon Xiao Ding's voice came: "Grandmother, Shen Qiang is a villain, and the eldest sister is unwilling to marry him!" ”
"You know what? Go! Stay and go! Mrs. Lu was impatient.
Xiao Geng shouted anxiously: "Don't marry Shen Qiang, he is a bad guy, he always beats me." ”
"Oh, my good grandson, come to Grandmother!" Mrs. Lu's voice was a little numb.
"Don't, don't, Shen Qiang is a villain, a villain." Xiao Geng began to cry.
Mrs. Lu coaxed her heart and liver, and Yulan didn't bother to entangle with Mrs. Lu, so she took the medicine bowl and took Xiaoding into the house.
The matter that was originally decided was made by Mrs. Lu, and Lu Xiaoyi raised her heart to her throat again.
For the next three days, everything was fine.
Except for Dr. Wu who came to change the medicine, the Shen family never appeared again, and Mrs. Lu never came, Xiao Geng still had boiled eggs for Lu Xiaoyi every day, and then the three sisters and brothers ate them with smiles.
On the fourth day, my aunt Lu Lian came.
Lu Lian has been married for a year, which she hadn't dreamed of before, so Lu Xiaoyi didn't know it yet.
When she saw Lu Lian combing the woman's head and appearing in front of her chubbyly, she was speechless in surprise.
Lu Lian sat on the kang, took Xiao Yi's hand, and said gently: "You fell your leg a few days ago, I said to come back and take a look, some things will be delayed until today." ”
Yulan on the side said with a smile: "You are a person with a body, just let Aunt Qiu come if there is anything, you are the first child, you must take care of it!" ”
Lu Xiaoyi's eyes widened, no wonder Lu Lian looked chubby, it turned out that she was pregnant.
"Mother-in-law, she lives in my house." I saw Lu Lian blushing and said: "I said a few days ago to take a look, but my mother-in-law didn't let me, saying that there was just an accident here, and there must be a lot of people, I'm afraid that I will be collided." ”
Yulan nodded, "Aunt Qiu is the only son in the family, and it is normal for your mother-in-law to worry." ”
"Sister-in-law, you said that if I give birth to a girl, will my mother-in-law ......" Lu Lian couldn't go on.
When Lu Lian asked like this, Yulan remembered how her mother-in-law scolded her when she gave birth to Xiaoyi, Yulan smiled and said, "Look at your sister-in-law, didn't you come over like this?" ”
"My sister-in-law was the same as you, she just married into her husband's family, she couldn't see anything, and her mind was heavy, she was afraid of this and that, but now that she thinks about it, she really feels that it's not worth it, she hurt her body, not to mention, and let her children suffer."
"Sister Lian, sister-in-law is from here, and if you have some heart-wrenching words, sister-in-law will tell you!"
Lu Lian nodded, Yulan glanced at Lu Xiaoyi, who was listening seriously, got up and said, "Let's go, let's go to the next room and sit and talk slowly." ”
Lu Xiaoyi guessed with his toes that they were going to talk about some private things in the boudoir.
"Hmph, behind my back I said, when I was a child. And don't look at where I'm from. Lu Xiaoyi sneered.
