Gu Liu's brain was still a little drowsy at this time, and he was top-heavy, and he wanted to go back to bed. I went to sleep and saw that she was still standing there, so I squinted my eyes and asked, "Aren't you going back to sleep?" ”

After shouting two or three times, Yun Xiu was still standing in a daze, Gu Liu simply ignored her and lay down on the bed to catch up on sleep.

Don't forget to explain to Yunxiu: "Don't throw this thing into the stove, if you don't have a place to deal with it, you can just put it on the table for me."

"Master, what will happen to this cinnabar stove?" Yun Xiu asked, holding the bag of cinnabar.

"The old Taoist priests used it when they were refining the elixir, and if they ate too much, they were poisonous, and if they were burned in the stove, it would be poisonous if they were too much."

He remembered that when he was young, he went to the mountain with his mother to see the old Taoist fighting method of Niubi, and the ladies and gentlemen were sitting upright on the stands, and there was a Taoist priest who set fire to the cinnabar on the case, and the people on the spot were gone, and it was the open-air environment, or they had to fold in.

Yun Xiu was just cold just now, and at this moment her two legs couldn't stand anymore, she took two steps back and sat on the chair, Erniang understood that she wanted to take her life.

Gu Liu saw that her expression was wrong, and asked, "What's wrong?" Did a child eat cinnabar by mistake? Gu Liu remembered that there was a three- or four-year-old sister in Yunxiu's family, and there were also children who were ignorant and ate indiscriminately.

Yun Xiu's eyes were a little stunned, and she shook her head, "Erniang's child will be gone when she is born." "The child in Erniang's womb died when he was born, where can he eat it by mistake.

Seeing Yun Xiu like this, her eyes were full of sadness, and she lowered her eyes without saying a word, Gu Liu thought that she was sad for the child.

patted her on the back and comforted: "Giving birth to a child is originally a matter of fighting for life, as the saying goes, giving birth to a child is like going through the ghost gate, even if those dignitaries and nobles in Wangjing City have seven or eight good doctors at home, giving birth to a child is also a big bet, in the end, your second mother is fine." ”

This world is like this, a woman giving birth to a child is fighting for her life, and no one can do anything.

"Master, Erniang asked Sini to throw this bag of cinnabar into the stove at home." Yun Xiu's voice was a little hoarse, she couldn't figure out how the family who lived a good life came to the point where they are here today.

After finishing speaking, he threw himself into Gu Liu's arms and cried.

Erniang asked Sini to throw cinnabar into the kitchen stove, only her second sister can be poisoned, and only her second sister needs to go into the kitchen every day to cook at home, Erniang is going to poison the second sister!

The second sister is washing and cooking at home and serving a large family, she is always the first to work hard, she has done all the dirty work, why did Erniang ruthlessly kill a person who takes care of herself every day?

But Gu Liu said that this cinnabar could knock out the fetus, and Yun Xiu's whole person was now in chaos. She didn't know whether Erniang wanted to use this cinnabar to knock out the child in her belly or poison the second sister.

"What?" Yun Xiu cried and spoke unclearly, and Gu Liu didn't hear what she was whimpering about.

After sucking in the snot that came out, Yun Xiu grinned and said, "Tonight, Sini pinched this bag of cinnabar and threw it into the kitchen stove, saying that Erniang explained to her." also specifically emphasized not to tell the family, this is not obvious that she knows what this thing does. ”

"Master, where do you say we're sorry for Erniang, she wants to do this? My second sister made cattle and horses for her, and she didn't say that she was tired of shouting tea and water every day, why did she use cinnabar to harm her? ”

The more Yun Xiu thought about it, the more angry she became, even if the sisters complained about her on weekdays, but everyone was okay with their faces, this kind of poisonous behavior, as for it?

"You think she's going to poison your second sister?" Gu Liu looked at the small package on the table, and smiled helplessly: "With such a small portion, even if it is burned cleanly, it can't poison a person." "At most, I can see a big flower.

"This should be used for the rest." Gu Liu picked it up and threw it again, but the weight didn't even weigh a penny.

"Wow!" With a bang, Yun Xiu cried even louder.

This cinnabar is not used to poison the second sister, but the second mother is used to beat the fetus.

The doctor said that the child in Erniang's womb was born and looked wrong, the normal fetus that disappeared due to suffocation was blue and purple, and the stillborn birth of Erniang was black and purple.

"You said that your second mother and child are gone, and she asked Erni to deal with this cinnabar. I'm afraid your second mother is using cinnabar to get a baby. "Safflower, a common fetal pill, can only be bought in pharmacies, but since the victory of Qingyunyi, the war has caused a large number of people to flee south, women and children have suffered heavy casualties, and nine out of ten little girls are born dead.

It's too poor, on the way to escape the famine, leave a son to pass on the ancestry, and raise a girl for the in-laws' family in the future, those old ideas that have been passed down from the blood of the common people for thousands of years, even if the new deal can't be turned back for a while.

This has caused an imbalance in the ratio of men and women in the north, and even many soldiers in the garrison in the north cannot find wives.

The old general of Zhenguo proposed to exempt the newborn daughter from taxes, which was linked to money, and those old rotten people consciously showed mercy. However, as soon as the money-hungry and life-hungry Hubu Shangshu heard that he wanted to be exempted from taxes, he was so angry in the court on the spot that he jumped to his feet, and then he had a bad idea to cure it from the root and directly grasp the sale of safflower.

It's really a fart to take off your pants, it's a big move, there are thousands of fetal pills in this world, there is no safflower and purple flower, and in the past three or four years, in addition to adding a small treasury to the household, the growth of women has not seen any fart results.

As a substitute for safflower, cinnabar is sold in a wide range of places, and even those who can't paint are put on some at home, if not for anything else, in case it comes in handy.

Although cinnabar has many uses and no restrictions, but in the end the dosage is not easy to control, and the number of girls has not increased, but the maternal mortality rate has gone up.

Thinking of these Gu Liu gave him a headache, he had the temper of an old general, and he also beat him according to the book of the household.

is still a chicken thief, that day the old general of Zhenguo made a move, and watched Hubu Shangshu take several punches before people went up to pull it. But what's the use, the first thing that those in power think of is always balance and moderation, the lives of the common people, in the face of justice, are a fart!

Yun Xiu didn't know what Gu Liu was thinking, and she was still feeling Erniang's ruthlessness.

"Master, although she has no children at this age, it is easier to take another step forward, but the child in her belly has grown on her for eight months! Eight months! "Even if it's a dog in eight months, it's already a feeling, not to mention a piece of meat in her belly, it's her own flesh and blood.

Gu Liu saw Yun Xiu's sadness crying, collected his thoughts, and didn't know how to comfort her.

In the final analysis, this little girl is too naïve, in a place like the countryside, a widow with a child and a widow without a child will have a world of difference in the future.

The situation of their Yun family, her second mother wants to beat the child and take a step forward, it is understandable, people are alive, and you are not related by blood, it is not too much for people to think more about themselves.

What's more, if you beat the child when you are a month old, everyone knows that this is a matter of fighting with God, and if you can have this determination, I am afraid that you have already thought about it.

Seeing that Yun Xiu was crying silently, Gu Liu slapped the towel board and handed it to her, "Wipe your face, don't cry." ”

Yun Xiu took the towel board and wiped the snot and tears off her face.

When she thought of the child, her tears still couldn't stop falling, and the child was already in human form. That's a living human life!

"Yunxiu, don't judge others by your moral standards."

Gu Liu was indignant when he saw that Yunxiu had killed the child for her second mother, squatted down, stared into her eyes and said: "Everyone has the right to choose what they want to live in life, others have no right to interfere, even if it is a parent or relative, they can't force her to do things that she is unwilling to do in the name of being good for her." As long as she can accept the price she has to pay, others have no right to interfere with her choice. ”

Gu Liu's face had a serious expression, and Yun Xiu was a little frightened.

"Hmm." Yun Xiu nodded as if she didn't understand. Gu Liu's appearance is really terrifying.

"Hitting a child with cinnabar is much more painful than safflower, and the possibility of a pregnant woman dying with it is much greater, after all, cinnabar is poisonous. Your second mother chose to use cinnabar, which shows that in fact, she can't give up this child in her own heart, she is gambling with God with her life, and she accidentally walks away with the child in her belly. To have this decision, I must have really had to do it. ”

He said: "Besides, your father is gone, she wants to choose a way to make her life better, there is nothing to blame, don't do to others what you don't want to do to others." ”

"It's not that I don't think she has to give birth to the child, it's just that I saw the child come into this world with little arms and hands, but his face turned black and died, and I felt uncomfortable." Yun Xiu didn't think that Erniang must not be able to take a step forward, but she felt uncomfortable when she saw the disappeared little life with her own eyes.

"Master, can I go home for a few days. Erniang wants to be a little moon, I'm afraid that the second sister can't be busy alone" Yun Xiu calmed down slightly, although there were still tears in her eyes, but she was already much better.

Last night, her eldest sister and second sister had that attitude, she was afraid that the two sisters would hate her later because Erniang failed to leave a son for her father.

I am also afraid that Erniang will hear the words of the three sisters outside the delivery room, and resent the two sisters.

Only when a family is harmonious can life go on.

Seeing that Gu Liu didn't nod, Yun Xiu said, "I don't want my salary this month." ”

This month, she took leave to go home twice in three days, although it was all for a reason, but when something happened to their family, Gu Liu took money and contributed to it, and Aunt Li also went to help their family because of Gu Liu's face. Taking Gu Liu's salary again, she was also a little embarrassed.

Gu Liu pursed the corners of his mouth and smiled, and rubbed Yun Xiu's hair, which had been blown a little messy by the wind because he had been running for too long: "Master is not Zhou Papi, you are indispensable." After going back in the past few days, you should deal with the affairs of the family, don't be radical, think about it from the position of others, whether it is your second mother or your sisters in the family, they always have their own ideas and helplessness. ”

Yun Xiu agreed, Gu Liu knew more about things than her.

"But next month, we won't be able to miss a day of work." The autumn harvest will be next month, and if this year's harvest is good, he should go back.

Time flies so fast, in the blink of an eye, it has been three years since he came out of Wangjing City, and he has not gone to his mother's grave for three years to see.

Three years, that's fast.

Gu Liu wanted to visit the capital a little, and he thought a little about the old couple selling wontons next to the big willow teahouse, which had thin skin and a lot of filling, affordable and delicious.
