Chapter 16 Trivial things in the year, Song Shuyun's serious illness
After the Song family moved to Liuyang Village, they did not hold a housewarming banquet, and lived directly in Liuyang Village in a low-key manner. Because it was cold weather a year ago, the pond was left unattended for the time being, and the fish left by the previous family were fished out and sold.
Song Shuyun's chickens have grown into big chickens, and they are stocked in the side garden when they have nothing to do. The goose in the family has a special place, which is a chicken coop that it occupies by itself.
Since moving to Liuyang Village, the Song family has lived a very comfortable life. No one bothers on weekdays, and there is no need to work in the fields after autumn, Song Dacheng has a separate blacksmith room, and Song Zhiyuan also has a special carpenter room.
The place where Song Shuyun made ink and painted was also separate, not to mention quiet, but also exceptionally clean, and Zhang went to clean it carefully every day. Song Shuyun likes to stay alone in the studio the most, and it takes her time to paint a painting.
Song Qi and Song Zhiyuan have to go to the school every day, which is mentioned by Song Shuyun, not to get fame, but to let the two brothers be able to read and write. Song Xiaosi is still young, and he is taken by Grandpa Zhang to read, and he can memorize an article every day.
Such a peaceful day has been passed until the year, this year the Song family has a festive year, big fish and big meat are not less bought, the couplet is written by Zhang's grandfather, the window flower paper-cutting is Song Shuyun is responsible, and Zhang also made two new clothes for everyone in the family.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Grandpa Zhang's other two daughters came back, and the eldest Zhang Meizhi and her father-in-law brought a lot of fish and meat to Grandpa Zhang's family, as well as gifts for the children of the Song family, which were also carefully selected.
However, the second Zhang Xiuzhi came back empty-handed, and it could be seen that she was very guilty and embarrassed, but her husband-in-law looked left and right with her eyebrows and eyes, and she didn't look honest.
Song Shuyun took a few cousins to play in the yard, and she had already hidden the things in the painting room, and she was not afraid of outsiders going in to hang out.
"Your house is so big, it's much better than mine." The cousin of the second aunt's family was full of envy, especially when she heard that Song Shuyun didn't have to do rough work at home, it was even more incredulous.
Song Shuyun always smiled, and she accepted whatever her cousins said, until she was called into the house for dinner, she was always smiling.
Lunch is one table for adults and one table for children. The children of the Song family don't like to talk, and one is more silent than the other, so the children's dinner table is exceptionally quiet. It seemed that the adults were saying something, and Song Shuyun listened carefully and curiously.
"Now that life is difficult at home, there are still some days left in the spring, and Xiuzhi and I want to ...... Let the family help out. The second son-in-law rubbed his hands and looked at Grandpa Zhang with a smile, while Grandpa Zhang looked at his daughter.
Zhang Xiuzhi seemed to be speechless, and there was still some grievance on his face, and he didn't know what he thought of, his eyes turned red, and he got up and ran out. Zhang's family went out to watch, but Grandpa Zhang looked at his second son-in-law with a strained face: "Didn't Xiuzhi be wronged in your family?" ”
"How so? Daddy Modo thought about it. The second son-in-law didn't say anything, Song Shuyun looked at him from a distance, and felt that something was wrong, so he asked Song Xiaosi to go out to see how the second aunt was.
Grandpa Zhang didn't say anything, and it didn't take long for Zhang Xiuzhi to come back, and he continued to eat the meal. When the adults were cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, Song Shuyun secretly dragged Song Xiaosi to a no-man's land.
"What did the second aunt say to beat her, she can't go on. The mother was angry and said that she wanted to tell her grandfather, and the second aunt said that the child and something like that. Song Xiaosi learned the words he remembered to Song Shuyun, and Song Shuyun pursed his lips and let his younger brother go out to play.
She can't manage other people's family affairs, not to mention that she is only twelve years old after the New Year, and others can't listen to her words. She is also glad that her family is harmonious, her father and mother respect and love each other, and she is a little sympathetic to her cousin at this moment.
"I think Yun girl is very good, she is about the same age, and she looks good, why is she not worthy of my nephew?" Song Shuyun was wandering around and eating when he heard a quarrel near the thatched house, and vaguely heard her name, so he leaned in and eavesdropped for a while.
"The third sister loves Yun girl the most, you don't want to hit her attention. Your nephew doesn't want to make progress, he can't be a martial artist, how can he be worthy of being a cloud girl if he is lazy? Don't say that the third sister can't agree to this, even I won't agree either. The second aunt's voice was particularly strong, but then Song Shuyun heard a snap.
Zhang Xiuzhi covered her face and sat on the ground, her husband was about to stretch out her hand to fight, but Song Shuyun hurriedly went out to stop her when she saw this.
"Second aunt, what are you doing? This is the Zhang family. Song Shuyun walked up to help the second aunt, and walked out with her. The second aunt was shocked when he saw this, and beat their daughter at Zhang's house, I am afraid that it will be difficult to explain, and I don't care about my daughter-in-law and children, so I ran home first.
Zhang Xiuzhi covered his face so that he was not aggrieved, the red fingerprints on his face were clearly visible, Song Shuyun whispered the ins and outs, and the angry grandfather Zhang dropped the teacup: "There is no one in the Zhang family who bullied me?" I dare to beat people at my mother's house, and I don't know how to beat them when I go back! ”
"Grandpa is angry, just now Xiaosi said that he saw his second aunt leave, I thought it would be better to let my second aunt live at home for a few days, first look at the attitude over there and then make plans not to eat, I am reluctant to quiet my cousin." Song Shuyun said softly, Grandpa Zhang nodded and said angrily: "If he doesn't come to apologize, I won't let my daughter go back!" ”
Song Shuyun saw that her aunt and mother were comforting her grandfather, so she went out and took a cob of corn from the barn and gently rubbed it into the pot.
"Great, cousin, I can live in your house." He Jing ran to Song Shuyun's side excitedly, and her cheering appearance made Song Shuyun puzzled: "Cousin, your father and mother quarreled, why are you still so happy?" ”
"It's not the first time I've quarreled, my mother will always be angry." He Jing said without care, Song Shuyun squinted slightly, lowered his head and continued to rub the corn. She couldn't understand He Jing's thoughts, but she didn't want to sway her.
"Cousin, your house is the warmest and most beautiful, shall we live in one room?" He Jing didn't feel that Song Shuyun was unhappy, and still talked to herself excitedly. Song Shuyun was casually perfunctory, and his mind was a little distant.
The eldest aunt and eldest aunt went back to their parents' house this time, and they had already agreed with their in-laws that they could stay for a few more days. Their family lived in Grandpa Zhang's house, and Zhang Xiuzhi didn't go to live at the third sister's house, but also lived in Grandpa Zhang's house.
However, He Jing said that she wanted to live with Song Shuyun, but several adults couldn't stand her begging, so they let her go with Song Shuyun's consent.
It was a snowy night, and there was a north wind. Song Shuyun has been drinking medicine, although his body is stronger, he is still not cold, He Jing still doesn't care about running inside and outside the house, and never closes the door.
As a result, Song Shuyun had a high fever and cough at night, and finally there was really no way, so he kept covering her with a cold towel, and stayed up until the city gate was about to open, wrapped her in two layers of thick bedding, and Song Dacheng and Song Qi went straight to the city hospital with an ox cart.
The medical hall has not yet opened, but fortunately, Song Qi remembered the location of the old man's house, and drove the ox cart over. Song Qi banged on the door to seek medical treatment, but the family at the door always stopped him from entering, and when he went out at noon, he saw that he brought people in.
"Yo, it's so badly burned? Go and get the silver needles ready. Fortunately, Lao Lang Zhongjue got up early, not too long, and with his sharp movements that afternoon, he was quickly healed.
Song Dacheng and Song Qi were in a hurry, the two strong men were pacing back and forth in the courtyard, especially Song Qi was young after all, and he was full of anxiety and fidgeting.
About half an hour has passed, Song Shuyun has finally subsided from fever, but he still hasn't woken up.
"The girl is already cold, and it took a long time to drink tonic medicine to raise her body a little, why did she not pay attention to let her get cold? In this way, the hard work of more than half a year has been in vain, and the body has to be restarted. ”
The old man was also a little angry, this girl was a genius, and he didn't want to see her die young.
"Can you bring it back?" Song Dacheng didn't care about Lao Langzhong's blame, he was more worried about his daughter's body. Lao Langzhong nodded, and said in a deep voice: "It's just a little hard, I'm prescribing a new medicine, and I'll drink this medicine first in the near future." ”
Lao Langzhong broke some Ganoderma lucidum in each package of medicine, which was regarded as a thank you for the few pieces of colored ink that this girl had sent before. He didn't say anything because he couldn't pinch the temper of the two people of the Song family, so he simply didn't say anything.
Song Dacheng and Song Qi took the medicine and paid for the medicine, and waited until Song Shuyun woke up and drove back when the sun was the hottest, and when he returned home, He Jing had already gone to live at Grandpa Zhang's house.
He Jing didn't expect Song Shuyun's body to be so weak, and thought she was just hypocritical. It wasn't until Song Shuyun was in a coma with high fever that she was afraid, and she didn't dare to stay in the Song family any longer, and ran back to Grandpa Zhang's house without saying hello, which is very similar to her father's personality.
Grandpa Zhang was worried about Song Shuyun in his heart early on, and when he saw that He Jing didn't like it, he couldn't say anything, in the end, they were all granddaughters, and it was not good for people to think that he was partial.
Knowing that Song Dacheng and they came back with an ox cart, Grandpa Zhang hurried to Song's house, and almost fell on the road, so frightened that Zhang Meizhi and his wife didn't dare to let go, and helped them all the way.
Song Shuyun was lying on the kang wilting, the kang in the house was hot, and Zhang nailed the thick bedding of the old house to the door frame, and opened the door back and forth to get in and out of the house to block some wind.
As soon as Song Dacheng came back, he went to the blacksmith's house to make iron, and when he came back, he saw that there was a charcoal seller, so he bought a bag. I thought about coming back to make a charcoal basin and burning a charcoal basin for my daughter's house, so I was not afraid of the cold.
Song Shuyun couldn't wake up in a daze, and Grandpa Zhang was stunned and stayed at Song's house for several days. Song Shuyun was very sick this time, and he didn't get better after the New Year, Zhang and Song Dacheng were full of distress, Zhang Xiuzhi felt guilty, and she didn't wait for her husband's family to admit her mistake to pick it up, and she took her daughter to say goodbye and go back.
What is hateful is that the old Song family listened to it when they rushed to the market, Song Bo was a vicious one, I don't know where the grave pulled a piece of mourning and hung it at the door of Song's house, and the bluffing others passed it on for several days Song Shuyun didn't survive, and almost went to persuade Song Dacheng and Zhang's festival to mourn.
After Song Qi knew about this, he and Song Zhiyuan blocked Song Bo and beat him several times, and finally Song Bo was stunned and didn't dare to go out to finish the matter. Song Shuyun giggled for several days after hearing this, and his spirit was much better.
