Chapter 55: The Disgusted Infertile Village Aunt (15)
Don't miss the time! So Wang happily ran home to persuade An Dalang that they had bought someone.
After that, the An family really bought a person with a bucket of rice, that scheming, shrewd and cunning woman.
In the previous life, this woman was bought by another rich family in the village, and she was raised for a few months, and when the woman regained her appearance and figure, she unceremoniously seduced the male owner, and turned into a favorite concubine.
The wealthy family also plummeted because of the restlessness of the house, and almost ruined the family, which was worse than the average family in the village, and finally this careless woman was sold by the old man in the family to avoid a tragedy.
The Wang family bought this kind of woman home cheaply, and waited for the house to be restless. An Dalang is still a scholar, although he is strong on the outside and hard in the middle, vicious and incompetent, but he looks like a human being, this woman will definitely not let him go, so the Wang family is waiting to fight with her for a husband! What she bought back was not a helper, but a disaster.
An Nan waited to see their family's jokes, and when he saw that they were not happy, An Nan was happy, and the wicked must be grinded by the wicked in the end, which can be regarded as a small revenge for the original body.
The victims in Tangjia Village came and went, except for those who were hired by Tang Xiaoliu and bought by a few wealthy families, the others begged for some food in the village, and after they recovered, they all left again, after all, Tangjia Village is not a rich village, they would rather go farther, so as to find a place to settle down.
This drought lasted for a long time and covered a wide range of places, so the victims of Tangjia Village passed through one by one. The people in the village themselves are not wealthy, and when they see the first group or two of the victims who have arrived, they will show kindness and give them some food, but when the victims come more, they will become accustomed to it, and their hearts will not be so soft, so they will no longer easily help the victims.
When An Nan went down to the village threshing floor again, he heard the women gathered in twos and threes looking at a corner and sighing and discussing, looking sad and sympathetic.
"Alas, it seems that neither mother nor son can survive, and the child has no strength to cry."
"Poor thing, I haven't been able to hold on to it even after I've come here."
"Yesterday, Mrs. Tang San gave them a bowl of vegetable porridge to drink, so they can last for two days, right?"
"That dangniang didn't drink it at all, let the child drink it!"
"O iniquity! This god is too ruthless, and he won't let people live! ”
……
"Didn't the eldest sister say that she couldn't survive and wanted to give her son to someone else to raise?"
"Who in our village doesn't have children? There are many children born to me, and it is difficult to raise them, where can I raise a few people's families? ”
"If you want to raise and raise a healthy child, that child looks wilted, and the strength to open his eyes is gone, can he still feed it?"
……
When An Nan heard their words, he looked into the corner, and sure enough, he saw a thin woman with a numb face holding a thin child with no flesh under the big banyan tree, leaning on the trunk of the tree.
The same group of victims are gone, and only her mother and son can no longer walk, so they can only stay here.
An Nan walked towards them, and when the skinny woman saw her, her desperate eyes suddenly burst with hope, she struggled to move the child in her arms, looked at An Nan with expectation, and said with difficulty: "Child, child, child......"
The sad and pleading appearance, Rao is heart is as hard as iron, and the fox An Nan, who has lived for a thousand years, couldn't help but feel sad, she hurriedly took out the steamed buns and water she brought, and said, "Don't talk, eat something first." ”
After speaking, he handed a bamboo tube of water to the woman, who first fed the child in her arms, and then carefully took a few sips of it herself.
An Nan handed her the steamed buns, and she tore them open and fed them to the dying child, who stopped after eating two steamed buns. Seeing that she hadn't eaten any of them, An Nan gave her another one.
But she shook her head and said, "I won't eat it, and I'll leave it to others." ”
She suddenly stretched out her hand and grabbed An Nan's wrist tightly, tears poured out of her bloodshot eyes, and her eyes were full of pleading, "I, I can't live, please be kind and accept my son...... He doesn't have to eat a lot, just be a cat or a dog...... He grew up to be able to work...... I beg you to give him something to eat so that he can live......"
An Nan looked at the child in her arms, even if he ate two steamed buns, he was not angry at all, he would not rush a few flies on his cheeks, An Nan was very doubtful that he would survive.
An Nan stretched out his hand to probe the child's pulse, if there is nothing, he is pitifully weak, and then look at his belly, the ribs are distinct, but the small belly is bulging, this is already a symptom of the late stage of hunger, just now he also mechanically ate two steamed buns, An Nan is a little worried about whether he will break him, but after thinking about it, he can still eat, then there is still hope of survival.
"He's so hungry and weak, I don't know if he'll survive." An Nan said directly and honestly to the woman that she would not deceive a dying person if she was not sure.
As soon as the woman heard that An Nan did not directly refuse her, her eyes suddenly shone with a frightening light, she showed an excited and expectant look, and said: "As long as you promise to take him in, it will be his fate to live, and I won't blame you if you don't live......"
"Alright then, I'll do my best to keep him alive." An Nan promised her, it is okay to adopt a child, anyway, she will not have a child herself, and it is not a problem to raise a child in the family's situation.
"Thank you! Thank you! I can only repay your great kindness in the next life......" The woman was so excited that she burst into tears, knelt down and held the child to kowtow to An Nan, but she had no strength, and fell to the ground after knocking, and couldn't get up again.
An Nan hurriedly picked up the child from her arms, and then helped her up with her other hand: "You better rest, don't knock." ”
The woman's face turned even paler, but she smiled and said, "Fortunately, I met you before I died...... I'm dead now...... My son...... He was three or three years old...... Very well behaved......"
As she spoke, she tilted her head, closed her eyes and stopped moving.
An Nan touched her carotid artery and found that she had indeed died, sighed lightly, touched the head of the child who was stunned and knew nothing in her arms, and turned to leave,
She wanted to go home and let Lu Qianshan come and bury this woman on the mountain, so she was the child's biological mother, and she couldn't let her expose the corpse to the wilderness, and after burying it on the mountain, she could also let him have a place to worship.
The women who were watching them from time to time saw that An Nan had taken the child, so they buried their heads in the discussion again:
"I almost forgot that there are women in our village who can't give birth! An Nan is really lucky, she can't pick up other people's if she can't give birth! ”
"She's shrewd! A few steamed buns were replaced with a son, and he was still helpless, his father and mother were dead, and after he was raised, he was not afraid that his father and mother would come back and rob ......"
