Chapter 2: What's going on
Orion Shilin married a daughter-in-law in his twenties, and this daughter-in-law was still divorced back to her parents' house, and the family thought that her stomach had not moved for five or six years, and a letter of resignation drove her back to her parents' house.
Shi Lin himself was poor and white, and he was not handsome, so he just wanted to find a daughter-in-law to live with, so he married her into the family, and soon after Zhang became pregnant.
Her pregnancy, people in ten miles and eight villages know that the problem of not being able to have children is her ex-husband, and her ex-husband's family has suffered countless ridicule and ridicule, especially her ex-husband who beats and scolds her at every turn.
Her ex-husband hated and angered Zhang, and was very jealous that Zhang's left him and could live a good life with a husband and children, but he had to bear the eyes and ridicule of others, so he came to Linshan Village from time to time to insult Zhang's and stimulate Shilin.
Shi Lin is a rough man, and his brain is not as good as others, so he was fooled when he was excited, and he picked up the wood and went to beat Zhang's ex-husband, beating them half to death.
Her ex-husband's family came to the door and asked for the cost of the soup and medicine, and if she didn't give it, she would make trouble at Shilin's house every day.
Shi Lin himself is not a rich man, his father is lazy to eat, because he was choked to death by a fish bone because of greed, and his mother also ran away with a passing foot merchant when he was three years old, and he grew up with his uncle.
After the uncle's death, his cousins immediately swept him out of the house, and even the two acres of thin land in his father's name were occupied, saying that the right should be the cost of supporting him for so many years.
He has no land and no house, he can only live by hunting, and his brain is not good, and he only saved a few dollars in a few years, built two thatched huts, and finally married a Zhang who was willing to marry him in his twenties.
In order to marry the Zhang family, he also paid five times to the Zhang family, who saw the money.
After marriage, he bought things and bought new cloth for Zhang's family to make clothes, which was almost the same.
How can there be money to lose.
Zhang was still pregnant, and was blocked by her ex-husband's family at the door all day long, scolding and making trouble, and was born prematurely in less than a month.
gave birth to a daughter named Qingqing.
Zhang injured his body and never conceived again.
Over the years, her ex-husband's family also knew that her family had no money, and seeing that she would not have a son in her life, she finally balanced her heart, but she didn't come to the door twice in three days to find trouble, but occasionally encountered it in the town, and it was inevitable that she would pick her nose and pick her eyes.
The two families are at odds.
As long as Shi Lin thought that his daughter had been weak and sick since she was born prematurely, and his daughter-in-law could not regenerate, he was so angry that he wanted to beat Zhang's ex-husband's family to death.
I remember that I still have a daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law to support, so I didn't beat people impulsively.
He was also complained by Zhang's for many years, and he didn't dare to speak out in front of his daughter-in-law for many years.
The day before yesterday, he chased a male deer and chased two hills, chased to the vicinity of Dayu Tree, and saw the child who ate soil, and wanted to take the child home, and he could also help take care of Shi Qingqing when he was raised, who knew that he couldn't take it away at all, so he was so frightened that he ran all the way home, and told the Zhang family about this strange thing.
Zhang asked him if he was wrong at first, and he assured him vigorously: "I am absolutely not mistaken, that is, a child with sound limbs, no different from ordinary children, when I saw him, he was still eating soil!" ”
The two hesitated for two days, but decided to take another look, in case the child was not a monster, what a pity to starve to death like this.
Just in case, the Zhang family also went to the town to buy a talisman paper to suppress evil spirits, just in case the child was a monster, so as to restrain him and prevent him from hurting them.
The two husbands and wives cautiously looked for them all the way, and when they saw that the child was eating soil again, Shi Lin immediately pointed at him and said to Zhang: "It's him, he's still eating soil!" He was in this position when I left the day before yesterday! ”
Zhang was very surprised: "Could it be that he has been lying here for the past two days?" "If this was a normal child, he would have frozen to death a long time ago, right? Even if you don't freeze to death, you will be taken away by wolves.
How could he lie where he was?
Shi Lin didn't think as much as Zhang's thoughts, he saw that the child was hungry like that, his sympathy began to flood uncontrollably, and at the same time he felt very self-blaming, "Yueniang, he's so pitiful, let's give him something to eat." ”
"Don't speak, don't alarm him." Zhang's was not as lacking in heart as him, she didn't dare to go over from a distance, and she also pulled Shi Lin to prevent him from coming forward.
Shi Linwei's daughter-in-law is looking at the horse, and the daughter-in-law is what she says.
Zhang waited for a while, and saw that the child had been lying there eating soil all the time, and there was no other movement, so he took out the rune paper, tiptoed, walked over slowly, and then quickly pasted the rune paper on the top of the child's head.
The Child: ......
Zhang waited nervously for a moment, and saw that he didn't react at all, and he didn't turn into his original form or a pool of black blood or something like what the Taoist priest who sold rune paper said, and couldn't help but be a little surprised.
How did she know that the child was originally a living person, but his body was occupied by a primordial god who had cultivated for an unknown number of thousands of years, and he was not a demon at all.
Ordinary Taoism can't help him.
Shi Lin looked at it and pulled Zhang's sleeve happily: "Yueniang, he is really not a monster." ”
In the end, Zhang's is just a country woman, and she is a parent, looking forward to a son for I don't know how many years, if she hadn't been thinking about this child, she wouldn't have followed the stone forest over two mountains and walked here for most of the day.
She also wants a son, lest she and Shi Lin have no one to take care of their frail and sick daughter after a hundred years.
Zhang, like Shi Lin last time, also wanted to take the child away, but he also encountered resistance that could not be shaken by human power.
"What the hell is going on? Why can't you take him with you? ”
Although Zhang was mentally prepared, when he really faced such a strange situation, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, he wanted to leave the child on the ground at that time, and thought of his lonely daughter, and finally mustered up the courage to hug the child and didn't let go.
The child was lying in the crook of Zhang's arm, his eyes were blank with hunger, and his little mouth, which was full of dirt, shook weakly twice, looking very pitiful.
Zhang's mother's love was great for a while, so she quickly pulled out the soil from the child's mouth, and fed him some rice soup and egg custard brought from home.
Children don't want to eat it deliciously.
Zhang's food can be regarded as saving his life, otherwise he would have starved to death.
After eating, the child stretched out two little hands and grabbed Zhang's fingers, with the intention of not letting her go.
Shi Lin saw it on the side, his heart was soft, and he also stretched out his finger and lightly touched the child's thin and shriveled little face, seeing him grinning, he couldn't help but be more and more happy.
"Yueniang, look, he's smiling!"
