Chapter 16: Sick to the point of death
Kong Leyi glanced at the third sister-in-law on the bed, she really didn't know how to describe her appearance, sighed, and said, "Father, mother, third brother, no matter what, the third sister-in-law is already from our Kong family, and she is sick, so let's hurry up and find Lang Zhong to take a look." ”
Kong Leyi and Kong Yueyue are both the daughters of Kong Lao Niang after she came to Kong's family, Kong Leyi is now 20, but she is already a widow who was driven back by her husband's family, so she has been staying in this house, her personality is much quieter than this family, and between her eyebrows and eyes, there is no tenderness and happiness that a 20-year-old Chinese woman should have.
"What! Looking for Langzhong? Kong Lao Niang raised her throat at the moment, "You don't know how to be in charge of a family!" What is the situation of our old Kong family, can you not know? How many mouths do you have to eat in the house? Adults and children, plus you, the widow who was kicked back, have an idle mouth, you can't even eat, where is the money to watch Langzhong! ”
Kong Lao Niang's words made Xu nod his head on the side, and when Kong Leyi mentioned spending money to see Langzhong, the entire Kong family, except for Kong Zhishu, who didn't have any expression on his face, the rest of the people were nervous, both men and women.
Xu said, "Le Yi, didn't my sister-in-law say that you, this big family, in and out, who doesn't have to break every penny in front of two cents?" Our family, even if we are sick, we have to be cautious to invite Langzhong, the family is poor, but we can't afford to support a few more idlers. ”
Kong Laoniang and Xu's words, Kong Leyi naturally understood, pointing to Sang scolding Huai, saying that she, a widow, had increased the burden on the family, and at the moment, she was about to tighten her lips and didn't dare to continue to speak.
Su Wanniang is just sick, not really dead, and she is not at the point of falling ill and unconscious, her ears are still fine, the Kong family of this big family, panting is more cold than not panting.
Su Wanniang remembered a sentence in her mind, some people are alive, but it is better to die. Obviously, half of this family is better than dying.
"Dad, my mother is right, the family is poor, where can I have the money to treat my third sister-in-law? Besides, this is the third brother's life, isn't this what we guessed a long time ago? Why waste this money to treat the third sister-in-law? Fortune and misfortune are destined, who can snatch away the people that Lord Yama wants to collect? Kong Yueyue, who had not spoken, finally spoke, she had an undisguised disgust for this third sister-in-law, in Kong Yueyue's heart, she had never seen such an ugly woman.
Some people nodded in agreement, and for a while, no one spoke, looking at Su Wanniang, who was half-dead on the bed and was already a dead person in their eyes, or looking at Kong Zhishu, who was still silent.
Half a sound, as the head of the family, Father Kong coughed twice and said, "To the book, if our family is a rich and noble family, this person, you have to go to Lang Zhong to take a look, but right now, our family is really poor, the eldest girl of the old family is sick and still owes Lang Zhong the silver has not been repaid, what your second sister said is that life and death are fate, in fact, the late mother married you, we already have such psychological preparations." ”
Before the words were finished, Father Kong coughed two more sentences, after all, although this sentence was not explicitly said because everyone thought that Kong Zhishu would be able to restrain his wife, but in fact, this is what it means, and Father Kong was the most forbidden to say this before, but now, he also thinks so about his little son.
"Zhi Heng and the eldest daughter-in-law went to Lao Su's house to inform Mrs. Su, so that she could be prepared, and the rest of the people should go out quickly, don't be bored in the house." As soon as these words came out, everyone dispersed in a hurry and all left the house, obviously, everyone was afraid of getting into the bad luck of this "dying man".
As for what the rest of the people are going to do, Daddy Kong doesn't say it, and Su Wanniang also knows it, so she naturally goes to prepare for the funeral for herself.
For a while, only Su Wanniang, who was half-dead, and Kong Zhishu, who had been standing silently, were left in the room.
