Chapter 1: Dressed as a Wicked Woman
After the beginning of summer, the weather gradually gets hotter. The men of the village went to work in the fields, and the women hid in the shade of the trees by the river, washing their clothes and gossiping about the various families in the village.
Suddenly......
"Poof!"
Accompanied by a splash, a huge sound of falling water came from the surface of the river.
When they saw clearly that it was a person who had fallen into the water, the village women, who were still chatting with relish, suddenly shouted in panic.
"Help, the fifth child of the Xiao family and his daughter-in-law jumped into the river again to find a short time!"
……
Xiao Lao Wu, who was drinking water not far downstream, heard the movement and hurriedly ran up and went into the water to save his daughter-in-law.
The village women, who were originally in a mess, breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at the two figures fluttering in the water and discussed.
"Good and dignified, why did this fifth daughter-in-law find death again?"
"What else could it be? Isn't it because of her sister? Her sister is pregnant, how can she stand it. ”
"Her sister is pregnant, why should she seek death?" Jiang, the daughter-in-law of the Zhao family, asked puzzled.
The rest of the women explained it to her.
"Sister, you just got married, I don't know, the fifth daughter-in-law and her brother-in-law Jiang Zhushu originally had a marriage contract, and later Jiang Zhushu took the fame and became an official, so he thought she was ugly and unworthy of him, so he married her beautiful sister.
She couldn't think about it at the time, and jumped into the river in the county seat to seek her death, and it happened that Xiao Laowu from our village passed by and rescued her. When he rescued her, he touched her body, so he had to marry her.
Now that she has been married for six years, she can't forget the Jiang master book, and she has been looking for a short time for Jiang master book for three days, and she hit the wall and hanged herself, and this time she was stimulated by her sister again. ”
"I see." Jiang suddenly realized.
"Alas...... Xiao Lao Wu usually treats her so well, she can always think about other men, and pity her and Xiao Lao Wu's two children. ”
……
Speaking of Xiao Lao Wu's pair of children, the women's eyes couldn't help but move to the two children sitting by the river and crying.
The eldest of the two babies was less than five years old, and the younger was only two or three years old, both of them were as thin as bean sprouts, wearing patched clothes, and their little bodies were convulsive from crying.
The two children originally thought that their mother was going to the river to play, so they followed, but their mother suddenly couldn't think of it and jumped into the river?
A woman lowered her voice:
"Eh, do you know, I heard that the fifth daughter-in-law was drunk and treated Xiao Lao Wu as the Jiang master, so she became pregnant with these two children."
"Really? So how can Xiao Lao Wu endure this breath all these years? ”
……
"Whoa!"
While the peasant women were chatting, Xiao Xiao scooped up his daughter-in-law from the river, and the two children stopped crying.
The women who were just gossiping and talking gathered around......
"Old Five, the Yun family has picked up another life this time, but she hasn't looked for this thing once or twice, I think she is just restless, I don't know when I will give you a green hat to wear."
"Why don't I introduce you to a girl, there are a lot of good girls in my mother's family, you are a good man, why do you want to guard a woman who is worried about other men?"
"I think Lin Xiaojing in our village is also good, if it weren't for this Yun family, maybe she would have married you a long time ago."
……
"What's your business?" Xiao Xiao frowned in a deep voice.
The women were frightened by his face, which was as cold as the ice of the winter moon, and they were all silent.
Xiao Xiao ignored them anymore, he took his daughter-in-law home, changed into clean clothes, and then took the two children to the stove room to cook ginger soup for his daughter-in-law.
I don't know how long it took, Yun Jinshu on the bed woke up groggily, only to feel a splitting headache......
