Chapter 109, Broken Feet

Although the night is good tonight, the dirt road in the village is rugged, everyone in the Li family is used to walking, only Wang Zhi'er is the first time to walk this road, she is not familiar with the road, she did not pay attention to the potholes under her feet, and she didn't dare to squeak when her feet stumbled, but she just forcibly followed behind.

Li Xuejian saw that she was struggling, and although it was not too heavy, it was not light, and shouted loudly, "Dad!" Seeing Li Yihe stop to look at them, he said, "Sister Zhi'er has broken her foot." ”

Wang Zhi'er hurriedly waved his hand and whispered: "It's okay, I'm fine, just walk slowly." ”

Li Yihe instructed his youngest son and daughter, strode back, picked up Zhi'er and said, "Let's go, my uncle-in-law will hold you." ”

Wang Zhi'er's eyes quickly gathered mist, and she choked up and said, "Thank you, uncle." ”

Fu Shi said softly: "You kid, since you don't squeak when you break your feet, if you go home, your feet will be swollen like steamed buns." ”

Wang Zhi'er rubbed her eyes, forced the tears in her eyes back, and said with a smile: "My feet are really not bad, there have been many times in the past, just walk back slowly and rest for two days." ”

Fu Shi looked at her with pity, "It's also a poor child!" ”

When she got home, Li Yihe put her on the kang and turned around and walked out of the room, Fu bent down to help Wang Zhi'er take off her shoes and socks, Li Xiaoran hurriedly said: "Mother, I'll just come." ”

Wang Zhi'er shrank back in embarrassment, and said sneeringly: "No, no, I'll just come by myself." ”

"It's okay, I'll help you." Li Xiaoran helped her take off her shoes and socks, her ankle was a little red and swollen, but it was not bad, she breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay." Just apply it with ice water. ”

Fu Shi patted Zhi'er's little hand, and said with pity in his eyes: "Zhi'er, if there is anything in the future, you must tell your family, like today, if you don't speak, in case this kick makes you sad, we will also worry." You have come to my house. Just like my own children. If you have anything to say, you must tell me, not like this today. ”

Wang Zhi'er admitted her mistake with a face full of shame: "It's my wrong cousin, I will definitely not treat myself as an outsider in the future." ”

Fu Shi smiled: "That's right......" he said. Li Xiaoran had already thrown a cold handkerchief in, "Sister Zhi'er, put this wet handkerchief on it and apply it!" It's a little cold, you bear with it. ”

Wang Zhi'er said gratefully: "It's okay." I can bear it, thank you Sister Ran'er. ”

Li Xiaoran smiled: "Family." What kind of words. ”

She got up and spread the quilt and said, "My brothers are back, and today I will sleep with Sister Zhi'er." ”

Fu Shi stood up and said, "You two young ladies go to bed early, and I will go back to the room, and your father will go to the county seat tomorrow." I'll have to prepare some gifts for your father to bring to your aunt." ”

Li Xiaoran followed behind and said, "I'll send my mother." ”

Fu Shi smiled dumbly, "These few steps, the house is not out." What do I want you to send. ”

Li Xiaoran hugged her arm and coquettishly, "I'm going to send it." Just take a look at what you brought to Erya? ”

This is her purpose, Fu Shi shook his head helplessly and weakly.

The mother and daughter went out, Wang Zhi'er looked down at her ankles, tears fell involuntarily, no matter how well the Li family treated her, it was not her own home, she couldn't be as close to the Fu family as mother and daughter, just looking at the relationship between the mother and daughter, it made her eyes hot and envious.

I don't know what she remembered, her eyes were dim in the light, and she lost her mind for a while.

Li Xiaoran went to her father's house, Li Yihe asked Wang Zhi'er how her feet were, and he didn't ask when he heard that it was okay.

It was Li Xuejian who asked a few more questions, and Li Xiaoran said vigilantly: "Second brother, I can tell you that Sister Zhi'er is fostered in our house, you can't have any ideas, otherwise what others say about child daughter-in-law will not be true." ”

Fu Shi heard this for the second time today, his face was a little unsightly, and he asked, "Who told you this?" ”

Several children only listened to what Li Xuewu said today, Li Xuejian glanced at his mother's face and learned the words.

Fu Shi and Li Yihe were both angry when they heard this, and Fu Shi said: "This must have been said by my sister-in-law, she was too much." Then he asked, "Did your sister Zhi'er hear it too?" What is her expression? Don't be angry! ”

Li Xiaoran shook her head, "She didn't hear it, Sister Tian'er and Sister Qiao'er pulled her into the room to talk." ”

Fu frowned slightly, selfishly unwilling to get closer to Zhi'er and Zhang's two daughters, but he couldn't say this.

Li Yihe said lightly: "You can say whatever others say, the children are still young, besides, we don't have this idea, what are we afraid of!" ”

Li Xiaoran strongly agreed, and once again warned the eldest brother and second brother, "The wife you will marry in the future must have my consent, you are not allowed to stare at Zhi'er, she can only be regarded as a sister." ”

For Zhi'er's timid character, she knows that it is because of the environment in which she grew up, and she doesn't hate her, and she tries her best to get along with her, treating her as a sister. But five fingers are still long, but they can't do it to her like they do to Ye Zishu. What's more, one of the two older brothers is Sister Shu's husband, and she has to help her take care of it.

Li Xuefeng was choked by her and looked at her speechlessly.

Li Xuejian laughed twice and said, "Sister, don't worry, if the second brother wants to marry a daughter-in-law in the future, he will definitely let you go." ”

She nodded in satisfaction.

Li Yihe and Fu Shi glanced at each other, and they really didn't know what to say to this quirky little daughter.

The younger son also came to make fun, "In the future, when I marry a daughter-in-law, I also need my sister's consent." ”

Li Xiaoran touched his head with a smile, "Okay, I will definitely help you take care of it, but you can't marry a woman like your aunt or Li Xiaotian to enter the door." ”

One is vulgar and pungent, and the other is not right-minded.

Li Yihe coughed when he heard this, and when he looked at the room, no one felt that something was wrong, and he opened his mouth helplessly: "Ran'er, they are your eldest aunt and eldest sister, you can't say this again in the future, you know?" ”

Li Xiaoran nodded solemnly: "I know, let people know that they will say that I don't respect my elders." ”

Li Yihe smiled bitterly, this child understands everything, understands everything, and agrees happily, but he doesn't care at all.

In the evening, Li Yihe and Fu Shi lay on the kang and talked, "Today, the fourth said that after the shopkeeper Zhong let him get married, he will take over the restaurant in the town, and the shopkeeper Zhong took his wife and eldest son's family to the county seat." ”

Fu Shi drilled into his arms and said with a smile: "The fourth child has a good life, and the daughter-in-law he is looking for is capable." "I don't have to live with my parents-in-law.

She only thought about the latter sentence in her heart for a while, but she didn't dare to say it.

Li Yihe looked down at her and discussed: "Now that our family has built such a big house, the fourth child is married, and the gift to the old house during the New Year's holidays cannot be light, and it can no longer be given to those as when the family was divided, otherwise, the village will not be able to say it." ”

Fu Shi sighed faintly, was this because she was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable?

After all, how they were separated, it is impossible to say that they are free of guilt now, not even a year!

"I know, or I wouldn't have brought something with me today. However, our family can't take too much, people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, and the sister-in-law is too little to take today. She paused and explained: "How did this money come from, outsiders don't know, and our family doesn't know?" That's just a windfall, in the future, the three sons will go to school, marry a daughter-in-law to build a house, and prepare a dowry for Ran'er, so there are many places to spend money. Don't look at these silvers as if they are quite a lot, if the child is really promising, there are many places to raise people and jinshi in the exam, and there are many places that need to be touched, these silver are really nothing. ”

After all, she lives in a rich family, and some things are more transparent than Li Yihe.

Li Yihe said thoughtfully: "What you said is that I think so too. ”

In his heart, he was secretly ashamed, he wanted to give his father and mother more New Year's gifts, and he didn't want to give more, but he didn't think about the future of his sons so far. After all, being an official is still far away from their home.

After a long while, Fu Shi said: "Brother Dahe, today my mother secretly asked me, saying whether Zhi'er was a child daughter-in-law for her son, and I was stupid to be asked by my mother." ”

Li Yihe smiled bitterly, "It seems that the gossip in the village has also heard it." ”

"Well, I told my mother no, my mother said, this matter must be explained to Zhi'er, otherwise if she hears these gossips from others, she thinks it is true, and she will ...... in the future I'm afraid that I will be resentful. ”

Li Yihe didn't understand her words for a while, and said in a deep voice: "I think that Zhi'er's child is also honest, and he shouldn't be unhappy, she doesn't know how our family treats her, and she can't be dissatisfied for this little thing." ”

Fu Shi burst out laughing, and he said blankly: "What, am I not right?" ”

Fu Shi laughed for a long time before shaking his head and said, "You're wrong, I'm not saying that she heard this rumor and thought it was spread by us and got angry with us." Rather, she thought it was true, and she would not be unhappy if we did not leave her in the future. At that time, we are afraid that it is possible to raise a white-eyed wolf. ”

Li Yihe smacked her words, then understood, and said with some hesitation: "No, you and your mother are thinking too much." He thought for a moment, and then felt that women still understand women, "However, you are also right to think so, then find a chance to talk to her!" ”

"Well, I'll tell her as much as I can." Fu Shi said and fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Li Xiaoran got up early, sent Li Yihe, who went to the county seat, and the eldest brother and second brother who went to the town, and the little brother went to the Ye family's backyard to practice.

When the two of them returned home, Fu Shi had already made breakfast, "Go and ask your sister Zhi'er to come over for dinner." ”

Li Xiaoran returned to the room and saw Zhi'er holding the quilt and didn't know what she was thinking, she called twice before coming back to her senses, and said a little shyly: "Sister Ran'er, what did you say?" ”
