The three little girls at the wooden table had already eaten their faces full of oil, and the leftovers in the bowls on the table were "cleaned" by them.

I looked at them, thinking that these children were thin, presumably because they had not had enough to eat.

When Zhao served the noodle soup, they looked at me directly.

Zhao drove them aside to play, and I deliberately only drank a little hot soup and left the noodles for them.

Zhao coaxed the child to eat the noodles, but I found that she hadn't eaten anything, so I went to wash the dishes and chopsticks.

I wanted to follow up to help, but Lingwu came back, still holding a cloth bag in his mouth, and put it on the table, I spread it out and saw that there was actually a roast chicken and a large piece of bacon in it.

"Master, let's eat some with the Zhao family and these children." Lingwu not only went out to fill his stomach, but also brought us food.

I took the food to the kitchen, chopped it with a knife, and then let Zhao eat it with a few children.

The children's mouths were full of oil, and they were smiling with innocent faces.

And Zhao thanked him repeatedly, and took small bites of the children's bones that had not been eaten cleanly, and his thoughts seemed to be erratic.

"Sister-in-law, you eat more." I handed her a chicken leg.

But she shook her head, and said that she would not eat anything.

"Sister-in-law, why don't you look so happy?" I looked at her.

Her face was full of sadness, and she couldn't hide it if she wanted to.

Hearing me ask, Zhao suddenly stood up, touched her belly, and asked, "Girl, you have also given birth, look at me, is my baby like a male fetus?" ”

"Huh?" I was stunned, her belly was round, like half a watermelon, I had heard people say before, a round belly is generally a girl, and I knew that it was the reincarnation of Kangning, naturally a girl.

"I guess it's a daughter." I said with a smile.

"Daughter?" When she heard this, she shook her head in panic: "No, it can't be a girl, don't talk nonsense!" ”

The docile Zhao suddenly shouted excitedly.

Seeing that she was so emotional, I quickly changed my words: "Sister-in-law, I just guessed at random, besides, there is nothing bad about my daughter." ”

"But I've already given birth to five daughters." Zhao frowned and looked at me.

She told me that she was famous in Qinzhuang, and she could find her by asking the Zhao family on the trail at will.

"Hmm." I answered, for it was, and that's how I found her man today.

And the reason for this is that she can give birth, but all the births are "money-losing goods", she gave birth to five daughters in one go, and her father-in-law died of anger.

The people in this Qin Village, behind their backs, all called her husband desperate, just because she was not angry.

"Five daughters? That's three, huh? I looked at the three little girls who were sitting on the bench next to me eating: "The other two? ”

"Died young, died at birth." She pursed her lips and said helplessly.

I listened to it and sympathized with the Zhao family, a woman who can't pass on the family lineage, this "crime" is not small, her man can divorce her.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry too much, many things are predestined early on." I comforted her.

When she heard this, her eyes sank, and she stopped talking.

I rested with her in the courtyard for a while, and when it was completely dark, she arranged for me a room to stay in.

The house was very small and had a lot of clutter, but now it was nice to have a place to lie down.

After Lingwu waited for Zhao to leave the house, he opened his mouth and said to me: "This woman is destined to have no children. ”

"Hmm." I nodded, too, and I had seen her face when she was lonely.

Zhao is a hard-working person, judging from his face, he has no male heirs, and his old age is miserable.

I put Corning on the bed, and I lay beside her, feeling very tired, these days, I haven't had a good rest, and now lying on this wooden bed, I can still feel the summer heat, this feeling is indescribably good, it is a feeling of being alive.

Lingwu was also tired, lying on the ground, and fell asleep.

I slept in a daze, but I vaguely heard the noise outside the door, and the sound was getting louder and louder, accompanied by the sound of smashing.

I opened my eyes and looked at the Lingwu on the ground, and found that Lingwu had already arrived at the door of the room, and was looking out of the crack in the door.

"What's wrong? Why is it so noisy? I asked.

"Then Zhao's husband seems to be angry and throwing things." Lingwu said as he looked out.

Originally, this was someone's housework, and I couldn't interfere with it, but the sound of smashing outside gradually stopped and turned into scolding.

Zhao was still holding back at first, but in the end he really couldn't stand it, so he began to cry, I asked Lingwu to help look at Kang Ning, and pushed the door out.

In the courtyard, the tables and chairs had already fallen to the ground, and the butcher was pulling Zhao's hair at the moment, regardless of the fact that she was already pregnant, he raised his hand and beat Zhao's back, and Zhao screamed in pain.

"What are you doing! Stop! I rushed over with a brisk stride and grabbed the butcher's raised wrist.

His hands were so thick that he tried to shake me off, but I pushed him hard and fell to the ground.

"It's the other way around! Lao Tzu beat his mother-in-law, are you an outsider in charge? He was a little annoyed and struggled to get up from the ground.

Looking at his unstingy appearance, I couldn't help it, and wanted to repair this heartless guy for this poor woman.

But Zhao was in front of me, and with the wound on the corner of her mouth, she actually opened her mouth and said, "Girl, I'm fine, you go back to the house and rest." ”

As soon as the words fell, the butcher behind her kicked on Zhao's waist, and Zhao almost fell, and was simply held in my arms, but he was still kicked with frowning brows, and he was very painful.

"Just because you're not angry! If you dare to give birth to a girl again this time, Lao Tzu will kill you. When the butcher had finished shouting, he turned around and went back to the house.

And I helped Zhao, but I found that her body was trembling slightly.

"How are you? Are you alright? I supported her with one hand, reached the wooden chair on the ground with the other, pulled the wooden chair up, and then let Zhao sit down and rest.

On Zhao's forehead, fine and dense sweat appeared, and I suddenly thought that before she said that the midwife said that she could only give birth at the end of the month, and now such a beating and scolding should be in advance, which is completely consistent with what Yan Shizi said.

"Sister-in-law, where is the midwife? I'm going to get her over now. Looking at the sweat on her head, I quickly asked.

But Zhao shook her head again and again, and when she asked, she found out that she had a quarrel because her husband had lost all the money for the midwife.
