Chapter 23: Xia Guizhi apologizes
Shen Mingci and Yu Shijie both looked at Lin Duoduo in surprise, and the two of them were happy and worried.
The former is happy that this little girl has finally grown up, and she is no longer the cowardly little girl who only commits suicide when she encounters something, and she actually knows how to call the police to find reporters.
The latter is worried that Lin Duoduo looks no different from what she remembers, she seems to be a different person, she has ideas and cleverness, and she is not as easy to marry as planned.
Seeing that everyone's expressions were loosened, most people chose to believe in themselves, and Lin Duoduo was more confident.
She walked in front of Huang Youwei, a well-known old Chinese medicine doctor in the commune, stretched out her wrist and said, "Third master, I have been feeling stomach ache and discomfort recently, you can help me check my pulse to see what's wrong." ”
Huang Youwei is a smart person who has gone through most of his life, as soon as he heard Lin Duoduo's words, he knew that she had another purpose, and then thought of the rumors that she was pregnant with a child, and he probably had a spectrum in his heart.
In the curious eyes of everyone, he gave Lin Duoduo a pulse, touched it for more than ten seconds, coughed twice, cleared his throat, and said: "There is nothing wrong with it, it is a deficiency of qi and blood, cinnamon branches, go home and cook some motherwort tea for the child to drink." ”
In the countryside, boiling motherwort tea and drinking it is equivalent to a girl's family menstrual affairs.
As soon as Huang You's words came out, the crowd was in an uproar, and someone immediately shouted, "This Xia Guizhi is really full of nonsense, saying that Ermao is pregnant, but there is no one at all." ”
"Taking advantage of the fact that the secretary is not at home in the past two days, you see her jumping up and down in a hurry, no wonder the previous secretary said that she was difficult to speak!"
"That's it, I can't believe what she said, let us be busy here, it's hot to death, it turns out that she wronged other people's young people."
"Yes, these educated young children are still good, how can Xia Guizhi slander people like this, how ugly it is to spread it."
"It is estimated that someone paid for her daughter-in-law, but Ermao didn't agree, so she thought of such a way, first made her reputation stink, so that Ermao had no face to see people, and she couldn't learn, so she could only marry into the ravine."
"Ermao, this Nier, who usually looks at the strange honesty that Fu'er doesn't reach, actually went to the county to complain, it seems that she doesn't plan to recognize Xia Guizhi as her mother in the future."
"Don't say it, it's different when you go to school, you can talk a lot with a small mouth, Lai's Xia Guizhi has no face to open her mouth, I think she will be a person in the village in the future."
"Oh, don't talk about it, shame! I still asked the head of the family to settle accounts with the young child, dare to love her is talking nonsense, let's do this idle thing, go home! ”
"That's it, I haven't fed the chickens yet, so let's delay people, let's go!"
Xia Guizhi is a daughter-in-law from other places, her mother's family is thousands of miles away, the man has passed away a long time ago, and the orphans and widows are not popular, so how can anyone speak for her.
The crowd that was still excited a few minutes ago turned to accuse Xia Guizhi, and after a while, they were almost gone, leaving only a few old men and old ladies who were idle and had nothing to do.
Xia Guizhi was left standing alone, standing or sitting, looking at Lin Duoduo uncomfortably, and said with a smile: "Ermao, go home with your mother, don't make trouble for other public security comrades." ”
Lin Duoduo had a calm face and asked Xia Guizhi: "Mom, you are telling me the truth, who asked you to frame Comrade Shen?" Where did that suicide note, as well as the so-called military uniform, come from? I don't believe it would show up at the door for no reason. ”
"But isn't it, who do you say is so immoral and smokes to deceive me," Xia Guizhi pretended to be confused, and said to Shen Mingci cheekily: "Educated young baby, you are a college student and educated, don't be like me, an old woman, okay?" I promise never to talk nonsense again. ”
"I can forget about it, but your abuse of your adopted daughter is a crime and must be severely punished." Shen Mingci thought that he was a frank person, so he didn't think about it so much, he thought that Xia Guizhi was a poisonous plan set up to force Lin Duoduo to marry, and he wanted to get justice for her.
Hearing Shen Mingci's words, he cared about himself and believed that he was innocent, and Lin Duoduo's heart was warm.
But she also saw that Xia Guizhi was afraid of someone, and it would be useless to send her to prison.
As long as the hand behind his back is there, he can still use others to muddy the waters.
After thinking about it, Lin Duoduo decided to temporarily relieve Xia Guizhi and coax her home to ask for the truth.
If you really want to put Xia Guizhi in prison, then you will completely push her into the enemy camp.
"Comrade Shen, I'm sorry," Lin Duoduo bowed deeply to Shen Mingci, and said sincerely: "My mother is old and confused, and she was instigated, so you can spare her this time, after Captain Li's mediation, I believe that my mother will not force me to marry in the future and prevent me from going to college." ”
"Mom," Lin Duoduo picked up Xia Guizhi, who was sitting on the ground, sighed and said, "Although you are not my biological mother, the grace of nurturing is greater than the sky, I will still see you as my own mother in the future, can you forgive me for going to the county to complain?" ”
Xia Guizhi snorted coldly in her heart, she didn't believe that the scheming Lin Duoduo would be filial to herself, I was afraid that she would already hate her.
However, the current situation is very unfavorable to herself, she didn't dare not go down the steps, so she cried with a sad face, and reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said, "Ermao, it's all my mother's fault, my mother is afraid that you will have a career after you go to college, so I don't want this family, my mother is afraid of raising you for nothing, I heard you say this today, I know in my heart, and I will never force you to marry in the future." ”
"Sister Xia, it's good that you have this awareness, I have recorded the words you just said in my notebook, and I will publish them in the newspaper in the future." Liu Erhei closed the notebook and said, "I hope you don't slap yourself in the face in the future." ”
"No, I will definitely send Ermao to college with my own hands," Xia Guizhi still remembered Liu Erhei, for fear that he would ask Lin Ruyue about pretending to be a hero and a place in the University of Workers, Peasants and Soldiers, so he took Lin Duoduo's hand and said: "Ermao, let's go home, it's weirdly hot, I'm dizzy, maybe it's heat stroke." ”
"Comrade Shen," Lin Duoduo looked at Shen Mingci quietly, "Shall I take my mother home?" ”
Shen Mingci's impression of Lin Duoduo completely changed, thinking that she was a very thoughtful person and no longer needed her painstaking protection, so she would no longer pursue it.
However, he still solemnly warned Xia Guizhi, "For the sake of Comrade Lin, who is not old but more sensible than you, I will spare you this time, and let me know that you are abusing her, and I will personally send you to prison!" ”
Shen Mingci finally relented, and Xia Guizhi shook his head violently, "No, I won't, I know it's wrong." ”
"It's too bad, it's too bad, you can't let go of this woman!" On the side, Ye Haolong jumped up and down angrily, pointed at Lin Duoduo's nose and scolded, "Don't think that you said two fair words for our brother Ming, this matter is over, do you know that if she does this, it will affect our boss to go to college?" ”
"That is, can you afford to delay our brother Ming's future?"
"Slandering our educated youth in vain, that's it? There is no such thing, today we have to make it clear and arrest this Diao Min for interrogation! The rest of the educated youths also interjected, taking the opportunity to vent their grievances in the past three days.
"Okay, you are not allowed to be rude to Comrade Lin, this matter has nothing to do with her." Shen Mingci opened his mouth to stop their clamour.
"Everyone, calm down," Liu Wu was in a good mood and said comfortingly, "Comrade Shen, don't worry, I will personally write a material for the bottom file, and I will definitely not delay your college education." ”
Liu Erhei also took out two copies of the college entrance examination transcripts he specially brought and handed them to Lin Duoduo and Shen Mingci.
After filling it out, Liu Erhei put it away, patted his chest, and swore that "I will personally send it to the Education Bureau, and I will never give anyone a chance to sabotage, you can rest assured." ”
The matter has come to this point, it has finally come to an end, and Lin Duoduo breathed a long sigh of relief.
At that moment, "Click! In the blue sky, a deafening lightning sounded, and in the blink of an eye, a thunderous wind blew.
"Xiaolin, Comrade Shen, I'm afraid it's going to rain heavily this day, so we have to go back quickly." Liu Wu and others got on the tractor and left Dahuangzhuang "suddenly".
"Comrade Shen, thank you." With other people present, Lin Duoduo didn't dare to look at Shen Mingci more, bowed his head and thanked him, and then helped Xia Guizhi, who was weak, to go home.
The intellectuals also returned to the house.
"Everyone, thank you, buddy don't say much, it's all in here." Shen Mingci replaced wine with water, saluted everyone, and instructed them when he was done, "Thanks to Lin Duoduo this time, you are not allowed to scold her in the future, be polite when you see her." ”
"Okay."
"Okay."
"Don't worry, don't embarrass her."
Ye Haolong said with emotion, "If Lin Duoduo hadn't come out halfway to sue her mother for abuse and divert the attention of those old hats, maybe we would have been cried by Xia Guizhi's Diao Min." ”
"Indeed, that little girl's mouth is very powerful, she usually wilts, but now she is a blockbuster."
For Lin Duoduo's performance today, the educated youths are still quite satisfied, and when they heard Shen Mingci say this, they all agreed to him.
"Shen Gongzi," someone suddenly remembered something and said curiously, "Just now you said that you already knew that the person who saved you was Lin Duoduo, not her sister, so why did you chase her for two years?" ”
"Don't ask what you shouldn't." Shen Mingci put down the teacup, got up and went to the toilet.
"You don't know this, right," as soon as he left, Ye Haolong, an insider in the know, couldn't hold back, and he boasted quickly: "The boss's trick is called secretly crossing Chen Cang, do you think, these old hats are still in the stage of the four olds, if the boss clearly repays the grace of saving his life, Lin Duoduo must not be talked about to death?" ”
The educated youths suddenly realized, "Hey, no wonder Shen Gongzi always sends food to Lin Duoduo behind his back, and he dares to love her." ”
"Isn't it," Ye Haolong was triumphant, as if he had come up with this idea, "Not to mention that people have to read a lot, and Shen Gongzi is very particular about people, and even repaying his kindness is different from ours, can you be so thoughtful about you?" ”
The crowd shook their heads.
