Chapter 2 Divorce of Wife
Su Liuyu had a high fever for three days and three nights, and when she woke up again, she saw Lin Xiuyun's red eyes crying, and her eyes were dark and blue.
"Mother......" she opened her mouth and found that her throat was torn and painful.
"Brother Yu! You finally woke up, my mother was going to be scared to death, I knew I shouldn't have beaten you like that......" God knows how much Lin Xiuyun blames herself these days, and when she thinks of her jade brother fainting in her arms like this, her heart is uncomfortable.
"Mother, I want to drink water."
"Hey, my mother will pour it for you, your eldest sister warmed a bowl of chicken soup for you in the kitchen, and drank it while it was hot."
Chicken soup?
I remember that the family hadn't seen meat for almost a year, and even if there was meat, it was only my father and brother, not to mention chicken soup.
Perhaps seeing Su Liuyu's puzzled look, Lin Xiuyun explained with a smile: "Your husband specially sent a bowl over, so that you can go to school when you are well." ”
I see.
Their village is called Wang Tao Village, and they are not very wealthy, but I didn't expect the old gentleman to be so reluctant, and Su Liuyu's impression of him was a little better.
She was originally an expert in high mathematics, especially proficient in architecture, in addition to being a child, she was extremely sensitive to numbers, and spent most of her life on the road of scientific research, won many awards, and was not a problem for studying for exams.
Now that she has crossed over here, although she is not a professional in those ancient poems, she still has a little ink in her stomach, and if she studies hard, she is not afraid that she will not get results.
It's just that I don't know if the imperial examination is strict in ancient times, and if I am found to be dressed as a woman, will I go to prison?
But compared to ancient women who taught their husbands and children, and took their husbands as the sky all their lives, she would rather dress as a man, at least she can lay a piece of the sky, and men are sometimes unreliable.
Thinking like this, Su Liuyu had already made a preliminary plan for the future, and then touched his forehead, found that it was not a fever, and was ready to sit up and sober up.
But just as he got up, there was an angry scolding from the kitchen next door.
"You little, you dare to bite me, it's against the sky, see if I don't kill you today."
Not good!
Listening to this sharp and loud voice, Su Liuyu didn't have to think about it, it must be Liu Huiniang, she got out of bed immediately, hurriedly put on her cloth shoes, and rushed to the kitchen.
And this sound also attracted the grandmother of the main house, Wang and Su Xiucai, Su Mingyuan.
"What's the noise at noon?" Wang's sleep is not good, and he will inevitably have to take a break in the afternoon, which will be disturbed by others, and he will naturally not have a good face.
Su Mingyuan, who was next to him, glanced at the kitchen and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on?" ”
"Xianggong, today the old gentleman came over to deliver a bowl of chicken soup, saying that he would make up for Brother Yu'er, but I just passed by the big house and saw that Brother Yu had already gotten up, his face was very ruddy, where could he waste this precious thing, but Brother Yu is working hard in Westinghouse for tomorrow's school exam, I will use this chicken soup to make up for him, what is wrong with me? This little actually bit me. ”
Liu Huiniang was stunned and immediately held back a bubble of tears, she was good-looking, although she gave birth to two babies, but she was not as old as Lin Xiuyun, but more rich and moving, a pair of eyes with autumn water, which made Su Mingyuan's heart melt.
I heard it again just for a bowl of chicken soup, and Brother Yu asked for it, and I felt that Lin Xiuyun didn't understand the rules.
"Dad, Brother Yu has been burning for three days, and the family didn't even have the money to buy medicine, it was all up to Brother Er to come through by himself, and now Mr. finally sent a bowl of chicken soup, is she Liu Huiniang still going to grab it?"
The eldest sister Su Yuhua is fifteen this year, with a pungent temperament, she was slapped a few times by Liu Huiniang, and she was stunned that not a single tear fell, and now seeing his father so eccentric, how can he bear it.
"How do you talk to your little mother, are there any rules, apologize quickly!" Su Xiucai immediately shouted angrily.
Su Yuhua was aggrieved to death, clenching a pair of silver teeth, just not letting himself shed a single tear.
"Xianggong, Brother Yu is also your son, how can you ......?"
Lin Xiuyun also rushed over at this time, because she had been doing farm work all year round, her skin was sallow and dry, she looked old, her body was full of patches, and her poor and sour appearance made Su Xiucai hold back the disgust in her heart, and she didn't even want to look at it anymore, and by the way, she turned sideways to avoid Lin Xiuyun's hand holding her sleeve in disgust.
"Xiuyun, what are you talking about, isn't Brother Yu already awake, can he compare with Brother Yu? What do you know about a woman, Hui Niang, don't you bring the chicken soup in? Grandmother Wang also disliked Lin Xiuyun's bitter appearance, and spoke in a deep voice.
"Mother......
"That's enough." Su Mingyuan had already turned around, and he didn't want to listen to it anymore, obviously not planning to take this little matter to heart.
Liu Huiniang smiled proudly, twisted her body and went to serve chicken soup.
Lin Xiuyun looked at this scene, she only felt a chill in her heart, maybe she endured it in the past, but she suddenly thought of Su Liuyu's words of kneeling on the ground and kowtowing to her husband, she only felt a shock, and the monstrous anger made her cowardly at home in the past give birth to a kind of determination.
She stepped forward all of a sudden, picked up the big kitchen knife on the stove to chop bones, and swayed in front of Liu Huiniang.
"If you take another step, I'll chop you right away."
"Mother!"
As soon as Su Liuyu entered the door, she was startled when she saw this scene, and shouted out directly.
"Lin Xiuyun! Are you crazy to cut me? I see how dare you! Liu Huiniang was obviously frightened, but she had always been ruthless in this house, where could she tolerate Lin Xiuyun bullying herself, and she shot back with her throat.
Lin Xiuyun slapped Liu Huiniang in the face, she has been doing farm work all year round, and her strength is already great, this slap directly knocked Liu Huiniang to the ground at once, and her fair face immediately swollen.
"You are just a concubine, and you dare to call the name of the master's mother, this slap is to let you know what the rules are."
Su Liuyu didn't expect her mother to dare to do it, and even Su Yuzhen was startled.
Su Mingyuan was just about to go back to the house, but when he heard the movement again, he was already impatient, and then he looked back at the slap marks on his concubine's face, and he was very distressed, so he said with anger:
"Lin, look at your pungent appearance, how can you be a housewife, you are simply not worthy of being my Su family wife, today I will tell the patriarch to divorce you as a shrew."
Divorce your wife!
Su Liuyu's eyes widened, in this era, divorce of his wife means that a woman's virtue is a big loss, and she will be removed from the clan.
She looked at Su Mingyuan in shock.
In her early forties, wearing a cloth coat, although she was white, but there were no patches at all, and the shoes were seven layers thick, and the needlework was dense, she remembered that in order to accommodate this pair of soles, Lin Xiuyun stayed up for more than half a month to do stitches and threads, because she had to do farm work, the light was not good at night, and her hands did not know how many times she was pierced.
She clenched her fists tightly.
And Lin Xiuyun was already stunned, her hand holding the knife couldn't stop trembling, and her heart was even more chilling.
"Brother Yuan, you say...... You want...... Stop...... Wife? Half a sound, Lin Xiuyun squeezed out these words dryly from her throat.
