Chapter 42: What the hell happened to my mother?
It turned out that this Wang Manxiu had been widowed for many years, and once he couldn't bear the loneliness and secretly cheated with the widower in the village.
If it weren't for the fact that Wang Wu and the widow's house were only separated by a wall, and Sun Xiu accidentally heard the movement next door that day, I am afraid that she would never have found out how bold the widow next door was in her life.
However, the widow has no in-laws, so naturally no one asks her to keep the festival, even if Sun Xiu says it, this matter can't set off much turmoil, at most, it makes Wang Manxiu the talk of everyone, and she Sun Xiu can't get any benefits.
So, Sun Xiu immediately decided to let this Wang Manxiu use it for herself, and she wanted to threaten Wang Manxiu with cheating, so that she could go up the knife mountain and go down the sea of fire for herself.
"Sister Wang, I told the big guy about your cheating, it won't do me any good, you can rest assured, when this matter is successful, I will definitely bite my mouth, and I didn't hear anything that day."
"But as for why I want to deal with Su Xiaoman, you don't need to know, Sister Wang, what about the New Year these days, you can take a good rest."
After the instructions, Sun Xiu asked again: "Did you use the medicine I gave you?" ”
The other party nodded like pounding garlic, "It's down, I specially asked Zhang Xiuqin, specifically in Su Xiaoman's bowl." ”
She went to the city to buy the medicine, so that women could not have children, and a pack of medicine would make Su Xiaoman want to conceive for the rest of his life!
Sun Xiu nodded in satisfaction and left.
Looking at the back of Sun Xiu leaving, Wang Manxiu walked around the house uneasily, and finally didn't dare to go out, she sat on the chair with her butt and folded her hands: Xiaoman, Xiaoman, don't blame me, I have no choice but to do it!
It happened to be lunch at noon, Aunt Wang saw that Sun Xiu only came back at this time, and she complained casually while serving food on the table: "Why did you come back, where did you go to play again?" ”
This daughter-in-law is from another village, and she doesn't look down on her very much, but Aunt Wang always thinks that Sun Xiu's laughter is sometimes soothing, a little scary, and she is not as festive as other little girls.
Sun Xiu rolled up her sleeves and sat down, "It's nothing, I just went to talk to Sister Wang next door about something." ”
As soon as she talked about Widow Wang, this Aunt Wang couldn't stop talking, after all, she was also chatting in the Su family at the time, and she remembered the scene clearly.
After telling the story of the morning, the lady put down her chopsticks, sighed and sighed: "I don't know what happened to this widow today, what she said is really poisonous!" ”
Hearing this, Sun Xiu couldn't hide her excitement, and she hooked the corners of her lips when she was chopping rice, which was both proud and vicious.
"Hey, Sun Xiu, do you think this Xiaoman really can't have children?" Aunt Wang asked again.
Sun Xiu shook his head, "I don't know." ”
There was no wave on his face, and even Sun Xiu, who was a little wooden, thought in his heart: It's better not to have children, so that Lu Li will have a reason to take a break from Su Xiaoman!
After a while, Aunt Wang asked again: "Xiu, will it hurt when you have menstruation?" ”
Sun Xiu and Wang Wu have been married for a long time, why haven't they seen any movement?
Unexpectedly, before Sun Xiu could speak, Wang Wu was annoyed.
"Mother!" Wang Wu couldn't listen to it anymore, he slammed the bowl on the table and scolded: "What about eating, what do you always say about this!" ”
"Okay, okay, I won't talk about it, it's all right." Aunt Wang compromised, but her eyes were still watching Sun Xiu's stomach, as if she wanted to penetrate her belly directly to see if there were any children inside, that look made Sun Xiu hairy, and she got up without eating two mouthfuls of food.
Compared with the Wang family, the atmosphere at the Su family's dinner table was a little too gloomy.
Su Xiaoman sat beside Lu Li, absentmindedly pulling the rice grains in the bowl, Zhang Xiuqin had eaten two bowls of rice, and she still had most of the rice left.
"Su Xiaoman, can't you eat it? In case you have to wait for a while, be careful that Daddy teaches you a lesson. Su Xiaoling stared at Su Xiaoman's rice bowl and gloated.
Su Qi patted the table, "Xiaoling, that's your sister!" Don't call your name anymore in the future, no education! ”
Su Xiaoling snorted lightly, lowered her voice and muttered to herself: "Didn't you always call your name directly!" It was okay before, but now it's okay? Besides, what if I call her name, is she going to lose a piece of meat or will she die, it's really hypocritical. ”
"Su Xiaoling!" Su Qi put down his chopsticks, "Don't talk nonsense!" ”
Su Xiaoman didn't seem to hear the two of them, she bit her lip and looked at the rice in the bowl, and then looked at the meat and fish on the table, she didn't have the heart to eat it at all.
Zhang Xiuqin was dissatisfied that Su Qi only taught Xiaoling a lesson, so the yin and yang snorted coldly: "A person who can't have children is still picky, look at the day your man divorces you, don't be weird!" ”
"Mother, who can't have children?" Su Xiaoling gossip.
Zhang Xiuqin rolled her eyes and snorted coldly, but did not speak.
Listening to the conversation between the mother and daughter, Su Xiaoman collapsed again, her hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly, and the tears in her eyes were almost about to surge out at this moment.
In the morning, the words of those eldest mothers echoed in her ears again, "I can't have children", "I will be suspended", these cursed words locked Su Xiaoman in a dead end.
"Daddy!" Xiao Man suddenly got up, and whispered with red eyes: "You guys eat first, I'm a little uncomfortable, go outside." ”
After speaking, Xiao Man didn't care what was being discussed behind her, she walked out of the house without hesitation, and even forgot to put on her cloak.
Lu Li, who had always been silent, looked at Xiaoman's back, then looked at Zhang Xiuqin's smug face, lowered his head thoughtfully, and quickly finished the rice in the bowl.
There were still small snow droplets outside, and the cold wind was blowing, which made Su Xiaoman shiver, she walked on the road to the edge of the village with her hands on her chest, looking at the smoke floating in the chimneys of every house, and felt more and more lonely.
The people in the village have a deep obsession with having children, and always feel that a woman must give birth to a child to be successful, and it must be a boy, after all, it must be passed on to the next generation.
Xiaoman's mother has never taught her this, but there are many women in the village who have been divorced because they can't give birth to children over the years, and there are many women who have been giving birth to children because they can't give birth to boys, and finally die during childbirth.
Once he thought of this, Xiao Man felt more and more frightened.
If Lu Li knew about this, what would he think, would he take a break from himself because of this? Xiao Man didn't dare to think about it.
"Let's go home."
As a low and familiar male voice sounded, a thick cloak was draped over Xiao Man's body, and she felt the warmth that hit her instantly, and she couldn't help but reddened her eyes again.
Lu Li didn't ask her anything, not even why she ran out suddenly, where she was uncomfortable, just a simple sentence of "let's go home" made Su Xiaoman's eyes red, and the tears that she had endured for a long time suddenly couldn't hold back anymore, and they fell tick-tock.
She lowered her head and whispered, "Okay, let's go home." ”
Braving the heavier and heavier wind and snow, the two returned to the hut, Xiao Man was always wilted and couldn't lift his spirits, Lu Li naturally noticed the abnormality of the woman, and after thinking about it again, he asked the doubts in his heart: "Xiao Man, do you think that if you can't have children, I will divorce you?" ”
Xiao Man's body stiffened, as if she hadn't recovered from the cold outside, she slowly lowered her head, grabbed the corners of her clothes with both hands, and didn't speak.
He knew, he knew he couldn't have children!
Seeing the woman's constant trembling appearance due to fear and fear, Lu Li was in great pain, he forcibly broke the woman's body, so that Xiao Man could face himself, he looked at her eyes very seriously, "No matter what, we are all going to live a lifetime." ”
"We have worshiped heaven and earth, our parents, we are husband and wife for life, no matter what happens, we are all husband and wife, and we will never change, you know?"
Xiao Man's eyes were red, because he had cried, and his voice was Weng: "But, if I really can't have children, wouldn't it be ......?"
At the thought of this, she couldn't help but sour the tip of her nose, and tears rolled in her eyes.
She knew that Lu Li was different from those men in the village, but after all, this was a major matter related to the heirs, even if Lu Li didn't care, the spittle of those women in the village could drown herself.
"Xiaoman, are you serious based on what a few women said? Are they better than Dr. Yang? Besides, I didn't marry you because I wanted you to give me a child, I really wanted to be good to you and live a peaceful life with you. Lu Li wiped the tears from the woman's face and said softly.
Su Xiaoman sniffed, pouted and said aggrievedly: "But I like children so much, I can't imagine ......"
Take 10,000 steps back, even if Lu Li doesn't care about these, but Xiaoman cares! She likes white and tender children, likes little dolls to run after her, she has fantasized countless times about what her and Lu Li's children will look like, and she fantasizes about giving birth to a female doll to teach her embroidery, and giving birth to a male doll and letting Lu Li teach him to practice martial arts, but now, ......
Everything became a dream.
"Xiaoman, let's go find Dr. Yang to have a look," Lu Li grabbed the woman's little hand and brushed away the tears for the woman again, "Don't cry, okay?" ”
Su Xiaoman finally stopped his tears and nodded.
Ignoring the heavy wind and snow outside, the husband and wife hurried to Dr. Yang's house while it was still dawn, and without caring about talking, Xiaoman took the lead in stretching out his hand, "Ask Dr. Yang to help me take the pulse and see ......"
Before he finished speaking, Xiaoman choked up and couldn't speak.
Seeing this, Doctor Yang nodded, "Girl, relax, I only need to take the pulse to know the condition, you don't need to say much." ”
After speaking, Dr. Yang first looked at her carefully for a while, and then he reached out to stroke Xiaoman's pulse, twisted his beard and closed his eyes, pondered carefully, and then gently shook his head and took away the hand that held the pulse.
Xiao Manden was like falling into an ice cave, and he almost fainted.
It's true! What Wang Manxiu said is true! I really can't ......
"Doctor Yang, what's wrong with my wife?"
