Chapter 281: Son
"Drink it! I'm not going to tease you! Sixth Sister Wu covered her mouth and smiled: "I should see my son go!" ”
"When did you have a son?" Zhong Yeqi said: "Have you recently had a cat or a dog?" ”
Wu Liuniang is infertile, and many doctors have diagnosed it.
She married out of town when she was a teenager, and at first her in-laws treated her well, and her husband was even more obedient to her.
After all, Wu Liuniang was born beautiful and has the skill of making wine, her mother-in-law's family is not rich, and her widowed mother lives with her only son, and her poverty can be known.
After Wu Liuniang got married, she relied on the craft of winemaking to live a more prosperous life, but after being married for several years, her flat lower abdomen is still flat, and her slender waist is becoming more and more slender.
Although this appearance is beautiful, in the eyes of her mother-in-law, Wu Liuniang's appearance is obviously not to her liking.
In fact, Wu Liuniang was also anxious, but she was naturally strong, and she was afraid of people's jokes and always secretly went to see the doctor.
I don't know how much bitter medicine I have taken, but my stomach still hasn't moved.
After a long time, the people around her said that Wu Liuniang couldn't have children, and her mother-in-law began to complain that she was a hen that didn't lay eggs.
Wu Liuniang went back to her parents' house in a fit of anger and went to the capital to find a famous doctor for diagnosis and treatment, but after seeing several in a row, she was told that she could not have children.
Wu Liuniang returned to her mother-in-law's house in frustration, but found that her mother-in-law and her husband had bought a fourteen-year-old girl who had fled from other places without telling her.
Her mother-in-law was satisfied, and her husband smiled.
Wu Liuniang was furious, it was not that she disagreed with the concubine, but even if she accepted a concubine, she should nod her head in the main room.
I went back to my parents' house in a bad mood, but my husband and mother-in-law not only didn't pick me up, but sang such a play, can't I wait?
But things are far more than that, Wu Liuniang returned to her room and found that the cabinet that was originally used to store her dowry things and savings had been pried open, and except for two coarse cloth clothes and a few tattered flowers, other valuable things were gone.
The mother-in-law said that she will be in this family in the future, and since Wu Liuniang can't have children, she will already be benevolent and righteous.
Although the husband does not speak, it is obviously impossible to disobey his mother.
Wu Liuniang was painful, sad and angry, smashed hundreds of jars of wine in the yard, and then found Mr. Clerk to write a piece of paper and broke off the relationship with her in-laws.
Her parents were worried about her future, angry that she was so reckless, and felt embarrassed by the peace, and the two old men were depressed, and finally one died at the beginning of the year and the other at the end of the year.
Wu Liuniang broke the jar and broke it, and she turned several thatched houses at home into taverns, and took in a pair of old people to help her make sundries, that is, the dumb mother-in-law and the hunchbacked old man.
Because Zhong Ye comes here every year to drink pear blossom wine, he knows what happened to Wu Liuniang and knows that she is infertile, so when she said that she was going to see her son, Zhong Ye thought she was joking.
Just then, two more men walked into the tavern.
One in his twenties, the other in his early thirties, both wearing green satin trousers and a horsewhip in his hand, apparently in a car.
After coming in, I sat down at the table at the door, and directly asked for two pots of wine and two plates of ready-made cooked beef.
Because a guest came, Wu Liuniang didn't go back, but beckoned the two guests to eat wine and food, and teased a sentence or two from time to time, which was right to relieve boredom.
These two people seemed to be in a hurry, and they didn't recruit Wu Liuniang much, Wu Liuniang knew that there was no play, so they simply went to the back.
It took a long time to come back.
Zhong Ye smiled: "Your son is awake?" ”
Wu Liuniang smiled: "I was awake just now, I teased him for a while and fell asleep." ”
Zhong Ye smiled and continued to drink, Wu Liuniang can say whatever she wants with her mouth, and one of the three sentences is really good.
The two guests at the other table seemed to have traveled a long way, and after eating and drinking a lot, they settled the money for the food and drink, and then asked where the toilet was.
Wu Liuniang called the hunchbacked old man: "Old immortal, show the way for these two masters." ”
Wu Liuniang actually treats these two old people well, but she is unforgiving.
The old man led the two men to the backyard, and after a few more the three returned, and the two guests went out through the front door.
Zhong Ye went to sleep on the recliner in the bamboo forest when he was full of wine and food, and although Wu Liuniang knew that he couldn't see it, she couldn't help but glance at him fiercely.
After that, I felt a little tired, so I asked the hunchbacked old man to take care of the shop, and she went to the back.
There are also two cabins in the backyard that are her bedrooms.
Zhong Ye seemed to be asleep, and was suddenly awakened by the sound of crying.
Wu Liuniang cried heartbreakingly, ran over and grabbed him and said, "My son is lost!" Find it for me! ”
"Your son?" Zhong Ye blinked: "You really have a son?!" ”
Wu Liuniang did have a son, but it was not her own.
One day in May last year, there was a young woman who came to the store to beg for food, Wu Liuniang saw that although she was dressed shabby, it was still clean, not like a beggar, maybe she had encountered something difficult, so she kindly cooked her a bowl of Yangchun noodles.
The man thanked him after eating the noodles and left, because it was already dusk and it was dark in the room.
And there were no guests, Wu Liuniang wanted to save some, so she didn't light the lamp.
The man had been gone for a long time, and Wu Liuniang found that she had left a blue cloth bag under the table.
When I picked it up, I felt that something was wrong, and when I opened it, I found that there was a sleeping baby inside, who was only one or two months old.
When Wu Liuniang chased him out again, where was there still a trace of that person?
This woman should not have carelessly left the child, presumably intentionally to abandon the child.
There are too many such things, and the poor family can't afford to raise the child and will throw it on the side of the road or at the door of someone else's house, presumably the woman is also poor and unable to raise it, so she abandoned the child.
Wu Liuniang then adopted the child and named it Ah Liang.
By now, the child is almost a year old and cannot walk. Usually very well-behaved, and rarely get sick.
Wu Liuniang couldn't take care of him from time to time because she had to take care of business, so she locked him in the bedroom alone and went to see it every hour and a half, but she never bumped into him.
The people in this place are simple, and there has never been a loss of children, so Wu Liuniang was not very vigilant.
Just now she wanted to go back to her room to rest, but she found that the child was gone, the doors and windows were closed properly, and the child's cot was equipped with railings, and it was impossible to climb out.
Coupled with the footprints of several men on the floor in the house, this indicates that someone has entered.
"Master Zhong! Find my son for me. Wu Liuniang cried and begged: "As long as you can help me find him, I will give you a hundred jars of pear blossom wine, and you will never lose your word!" ”
