Chapter 4 is dead
When Xiao Xia returned home with Doctor Hua, the courtyard of the Shen family was already full of people. In this small mountain village, people don't have any work in winter, and they are bored, and finally something big happened in the village, and I heard that my mother-in-law killed her daughter-in-law, so I didn't come to see the excitement.
"Look, Doctor Hua is here, I don't know if Shen's second daughter-in-law is still saved?"
"I could see a yard of blood just now."
"I came quickly, but I saw Shen Er crying when I saw Shen Er hugging his daughter-in-law, I guess it's gone."
"Mrs. Jia has always looked at her second daughter-in-law unpleasantly, and I heard that she was always abused and finally died. Tsk......"
"Do you know why?"
"I don't know, but the four girls of the Shen family should stay away in the future, with her old lady's character, whoever marries and goes home, it will be ......."
The lively chatter in the courtyard was not shy about it at all, and the Shen family listened to it all. Mrs. Jia and Shen Hui were sitting in the room and were embarrassed to go out when they heard the discussion outside, but when they heard that it was arranged on their precious daughter, they could bear it. Shen Hui also cried, and Mrs. Jia immediately rushed out.
"Which shameless slut actually scolded my daughter for not being able to get married, she is really a poisonous woman with a black heart."
A few people in the yard who watched the excitement were not afraid of big things, and when they saw that the protagonist finally came out, they didn't blame the old woman for scolding.
"Aunt Jia, I heard that you beat your second daughter-in-law to death, you are the one with the black heart." The woman who spoke pursed her lips and laughed gloatingly, as if it were a good thing.
"Tell me why, we're really weird." The mothers-in-law in the yard were gossiping, each more positive than the other. Even the gentlemen stretched out their ears and listened.
"You long-tongued women, get out of my yard." Old Mrs. Jia was about to be angry to death, and now she hated Shen Xiaoxia, who was poisonous and troublesome, thinking about how she didn't die of illness, and she was really a mourning star for the Shen family.
Xiao Xia didn't care about the things in the yard, and took Doctor Hua into the West Wing. Shen Zhong still sat on the edge of the kang without saying a word, and the two sisters were already crying breathlessly.
"Let's see how my mother is?" Xiao Xia looked at Xiao Wang, who was lying motionless and closed his eyes, and was also startled, could it really be dead.
Dr. Hua is a thin-haired, gray-haired and slightly chubby mother-in-law, with a pair of shrewd eyes that see everything in her eyes. The Shen family is also a big family in the village, and no one in the village knows about the family matter. Shen Lao Er's room was abused like this, except for sighing, it couldn't help much, who didn't have a scripture that was difficult to read.
Doctor Hua looked at Xiao Wang, who was lying still, and touched her pulse again, fortunately she was not dead, but her body was empty. He rolled his eyelids again and looked at his eyes. He took out tools from the medicine box he had brought, cleaned the wound, applied hemostatic medicine, and bandaged the wound. before he spoke.
"Shen's second daughter-in-law is fine, but she fainted in a hurry. But this body is very empty, and it can't be made up without a big supplement, and I'm afraid that I won't have a few years to get up if I'm depressed. ”
Xiaochun understood, that is, her mother didn't have a few years to live, and she cried again, and Xiaoqiu cried when she saw her sister crying and cried. Shen Zhong has been under tremendous mental pressure, and when he heard that his daughter-in-law would not live for a few years, it was like the last straw in his heart, and he also howled, and the cry frightened several people in the house.
The people who were still watching the excitement in the courtyard were also frightened by the overly sad cries coming from the house, and suddenly it was a lot quieter.
"Second daughter-in-law Shen, is this really gone?"
"Listen to the crying."
"This old woman Shen killed her daughter-in-law, the official master won't come to the village to arrest people, right?"
"Who knows?"
"There is a son who has become a showman, and his eyes are all in the sky on weekdays, and this time he will go to prison!"
There are dozens of families in the village, and anyone who eats more than one meal of meat a year is envied, not to mention a showman. Mrs. Jia has offended people a lot in the past two years, because she has a talented son who no one dares to get along with her, and now she plans to watch a good show.
When Mrs. Jia heard that even the second son of the stuffy gourd in the west wing was crying, she also thought that Xiao Wang's was gone, so frightened that she sat on the ground and flashed her waist, and now no one dares to say anything.
The Shen family was frightened, it was not a glorious thing for this daughter-in-law to be beaten to death by her mother-in-law, and the whole village knew about it in a blink of an eye. One after another, many people came to see the excitement. There are three layers inside and three layers outside, and everyone even began to help Zhang Luo's funeral.
"What are you doing here? They all dispersed...... "The village chief of Shenjia Village is also the patriarch of the old Shen family, and Shen Shouli's elder brother, Shen Shouxiao, also heard the news. Along the way, I heard that Mrs. Jia killed her second daughter-in-law, and no one knows what the specific reason is. He does know a little, after all, it is his own brother's house, and Xiao Wang's mother-in-law has not been treated by his mother-in-law for a day or two, who knows that someone will die today.
But now it's not easy for the village chief to speak, everyone is here to see the excitement, and no one leaves.
The village chief can't help it, this time the old Shen family has lost an adult.
Xiao Xia looked at the cheap father who was crying, and really wanted to go up and punch twice, but he really got home, and he couldn't count on anything.
"Doctor Hua, what is the big supplement? We must find something to make up for my mother, so that my mother will always be alive. ”
Doctor Hua looked at the lame girl in front of him, only to see her wipe away the tears on her face and look at her stubborn appearance. knows to find a doctor for his mother, and he is a sensible child. When I heard that a girl in the Shen family broke her leg, she took the initiative to come to the door to treat her, but the Shen family said that she had no spare money to treat her leg with a money-losing product, and scolded her for being nosy, so she left in anger. It's been almost two years since I thought about this, and now even if I let her treat it, I can't cure it.
"It takes more than 100 years of ginseng to boil soup every day, and you can't do tiring work and heavy work, so it takes three or two years to get better."
Xiaochun originally heard the second sister ask the doctor how to cure her mother, thinking that there was still hope, but when she heard the ginseng that the doctor said, she didn't work. There was no hope at all, and the crying was a little heavier.
Doctor Hua could only shake his head and sigh when he saw the family crying sadly. Before going out, he looked at Xiao Xia, who said thank you to himself, and couldn't help but glance at the little girl's limping legs.
"If you just fell and injured yourself, I can still show you, it's almost two years now, I can't help it."
Xiao Xia heard what Dr. Hua said, her face was a little ugly, she was only eight years old now, and she didn't want to be a cripple for the rest of her life.
"You don't have to despair, I will also cure the common minor ailments in the village. If you're still young, there must be hope for a good doctor. ”
"Thank you!" After listening to Dr. Hua's words, Xiao Xia was finally relieved, she was really afraid that her medical skills in this backward era would not be good.
Xiao Xia and Doctor Hua came out of the wing room and were shocked by the scene outside. The Shen family was defeated by dark clouds, and the men in the family were all standing in the courtyard, and Shen Cai and his son Shen Nengwen, who had planned to go to the town after breakfast, were still in the courtyard and did not leave, except for Mrs. Jia who was sitting in the snowdrift in the courtyard, the other female relatives did not dare to leave the house.
The courtyard was crowded with people watching the excitement, maybe the Shen family had never been so lively.
"Xiao Xia! Don't be sad, give your mother a good rest, you have to go on the road when it's time to go. The village chief also wanted to suppress this, although he couldn't look past it, but for the sake of the reputation of the Shen family, he had to do it with a clear conscience.
Xiao Xia looked at the old man who looked very similar to his grandfather, he meant that his mother was dead, and he couldn't complain about the yard to win people.
"Village chief, aren't we going to report to the official?" There is always a mouth that is not afraid of big provocations.
Xiao Xia looked at the mother-in-law who was talking, squinted her eyes, dressed in a shabby cotton jacket, crowded at the front of the crowd, looked up at the village chief, and turned the old face of the village chief red.
"What officer? That woman's death has nothing to do with me. As soon as Mrs. Jia heard that someone was going to report to the official, she immediately jumped out, and she couldn't care about the backache.
Xiao Xia understood from these three words, and now the whole village thinks that Mrs. Jia killed her daughter-in-law to watch the fun. And the village chief just now seems to want to suppress the matter.
Xiao Xia suddenly knelt on the ground and began to perform with tears in her eyes: "Village chief, as well as uncles and aunts, please help me beg grandma." Because Uncle and Brother Nengwen want to study, the family is in difficulty, and grandma wants to starve to death for the three of our sisters, my mother knelt on the ground and begged grandma when she was in a hurry, and grandma hit her mother on the head when she was angry. "I don't talk about the rest of the house, I just keep crying and crying, crying inside and crying outside the house. Xiao Xia didn't mention that her mother hadn't died yet, she just wanted to make Mrs. Jia suffer a little.
"I see!" The people standing in the courtyard finally knew the reason, and they all looked at the Shen family with mockery.
"I don't have money to study, this is because I am hungry for studying, and we are the first one in Shenjia Village."
"So that's how this show was tested? I said that my family Dazhu also studied well, why didn't he get admitted to Xiucai? It turned out that my old lady was not ruthless enough, and she raised a circle of girls at home, how could she have the money to study! ”
The people who were originally jealous of Shen Zhi's admission to Xiucai all directed the war to him.
Shen Zhi, who was standing in the courtyard, felt that he had never been so ashamed, and glared at his wife fiercely. This glance happened to be seen by the village chief.
The village chief can also be regarded as Shen Zhi's uncle, and he feels that he has a talented nephew with a light on his face, but when he saw Shen Zhi's cruel eyes looking at his wife just now, his heart suddenly jumped.
"You plagued girl, you can't eat enough, who in the whole family is not on a diet, you don't work all day and still want to eat delicacies from the mountains and seas!" Mrs. Jia raised the soles of her shoes and wanted to beat people.
Xiao Xia took two blows stiffly, waiting for you to hit me twice, otherwise how could I behave patheticly.
"But sister-in-law and brother Nengwen don't eat eggs in the morning, and you each have meat to eat every night. But we can only drink porridge, and sometimes we don't even have half of it. ”
