Chapter 343: Marital Crisis
Fanning did not leave, and returned to the courtyard, he gave his sister a look, and Ado immediately understood, and obediently went to find Aqiao.
Fanning sat down in front of her mother and asked with a smile, "Does my mother still wash her own clothes now?" ”
"I still wash the small clothes by myself, I'm used to it."
Fanning didn't know how to open it, but he knew that he had to say it anyway.
After pondering for a moment, Fan Ning said slowly: "I know about Daddy. ”
"You know something!"
Zhang Sanniang threw a few pieces of clothes into the box unhappily, "I don't understand what you're talking about?" ”
"Mother, that woman lives on the third uncle's side!"
Zhang Sanniang's body froze suddenly, and after a while, her eyes shot deep feelings, and she gritted her teeth and said, "I will never let that fox spirit enter the house." ”
"Mother, Daddy and her have reached that point, you should know!"
"How could I not have known, didn't your father live with her that month? If it weren't for your grandma scolding him, would he come back and admit his mistakes? ”
"What are you going to do?" Fanning asked again.
After a moment of silence, Zhang Sanniang said hatefully: "I have already agreed with your father before, give their family a thousand yuan, and then buy them 300 acres of land in Yingzhou, even if this matter is over, your father will agree." ”
"Mother, there are some things you can't stop."
"I know, when a man has money, there will be countless vixens coming to the door, back then, your Grandpa Shuigen reminded me, don't let your father be alone in the town, I haven't understood what it means, and now I know that the widows in the town have long taken a fancy to your father, young, rich, and strong, and they are like flies around their father all day long, hum! No one will ever snatch my man. ”
Fan Ning sighed secretly, her mother had not realized the seriousness of the problem, she was already five months pregnant, and her mother could only compromise, otherwise the burden of the illegitimate child would crush people, and the voice of their Fan family would be completely stinky, and the father would never allow this to happen.
If the mother does not compromise, then there is only one choice, divorce and remarry, which is another result that Fanning never wants to see.
Fanning also knew that the reason why his father quarreled with his mother was really dragged to the final critical point.
Fan Ning pondered for a moment and said, "Mother, the situation is already quite serious. ”
"What do you mean by that?" Zhang Sanniang's eyes widened.
"Mother, I asked the third uncle just now, that woman is five months pregnant."
"Ahh
Zhang Sanniang was taken aback, she suddenly jumped up and cried and scolded, "Fan Tiezhou, who killed a thousand knives, why don't you die?" Die with that vixen, I don't want to see you again. ”
Zhang Sanniang squatted down, covered her face and cried bitterly.
Fanning also hated his father in his heart, and he held his mother's hand and comforted her in a low voice.
At this time, Zhang Sanniang stopped crying, she wiped her tears and said: "Since he wants to be with that woman, I will let them be together, I will not give in to that vixen, I will divorce when I go back, she doesn't want me to admit her." ”
"Mother! You're not ......."
Zhang Sanniang stood up and said: "When you were young, your grandfather said that he wanted your father to marry a concubine, at that time I really agreed, it was my fault that I couldn't inherit the Fan family, I admitted it, but at that time, the family was poor, and he couldn't marry if he wanted to, but now I have children and daughters, I don't owe them the Fan family, why should he marry a concubine?" Although I, Zhang Sanniang, am a country woman, I also have dignity, why should I let other women share their husbands with me? ”
"Mother, you think about it calmly first."
Zhang Sanniang patted her son's hand and said with tears in her eyes: "Don't worry! Your mother will control her emotions and will not quarrel with your father anymore, and it will not affect your marriage. ”
Fan Ning had no choice but to persuade his mother again, and left the courtyard with a heavy heart.
.......
Fan Ning got on the ox cart and was about to leave, but he saw his father walking towards this side with a few people from a distance, it seemed to be Master Liu and the fourth uncle, Master Liu is the person Fan Ning has always been grateful for, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "Students see Master Liu!" ”
Fan Ning claimed to be a student, which made the master of Liu very satisfied, indicating that Fan Ning did not forget his roots, and remembered that he came out of Yanying Academy.
He smiled and said, "I never imagined that you and Ju Pei were actually a pair, which means that I arranged your seats correctly back then." ”
"So this matchmaker is none other than your old man!"
"That's right, I made this matchmaker more than ten years ago."
Everyone laughed, Fan Ning gave the fourth uncle Fan Tongzhong and uncle Zhang Parallel salutes, the two congratulated Fan Ning a few words, Fan Tiezhou said: "A-Ning, I'll take them in to rest, you are all a little tired." ”
Fanning nodded and said to his father, "Daddy, I'll talk to you later, I'll wait for you here." ”
"Got it, I'll arrange for a few elders to live first."
Fan Tiezhou went in with a few elders, Fan Ning stood at the door and waited patiently, and after a while, Fan Tiezhou walked out quickly and asked with a smile: "A-Ning, what do you want to say?" ”
Fanning looked at the courtyard, "Are they all arranged?" ”
Fan Tiezhou nodded, "There are many houses here, they are all cleaned up, there are bedding and everything, find a room and live there, and your second uncle will send them the luggage when you turn around." ”
Fanning pointed to the river, "Daddy, let's go!" ”
Fan Tiezhou was a little surprised, but he still followed his son and walked slowly towards the Bianhe River.
"How's Daddy's Clinic going?" Fanning asked with a smile.
"The hospital is not bad, most of the trauma patients can be cured, but there are still some troubles."
"Like what?"
"For example, I wash the wounds of patients with soju or salt water, but the patient's fever just can't go away, and I can't find good medicine, which is my biggest problem."
Fanning nodded, this is caused by inflammation in the body, and there are no antibiotics such as cephalosporin and penicillin in this era, which is indeed a bit difficult to do.
Fan Ning thought for a moment and said, "I've heard that there is a very effective recipe, Daddy might as well give it a try." ”
Fan Tiezhou was overjoyed, "What recipe?" ”
"Daddy can use dandelion, bitter dice, and banyan root to decoction water for patients to drink, four to five times a day, basically two or three days can reduce the fever."
"Then I'll go back and give it a try!"
The two walked to the river, which was actually a moat, but it was also a part of the Bianhe River, and the river was extremely busy, with boats coming and going, and it was very lively.
Fan Ning stared at a small boat for a long time, and suddenly asked lightly, "That Aunt Caixiang is five months pregnant, right?" ”
Fan Tiezhou was silent for a while, and said for a while: "I will deal with this matter, you can leave it alone." ”
"How could I not care? If the news spreads that my father has an illegitimate child, the Liu family will immediately join me, and I will have to go home and farm. ”
Although Fan Ning's tone was very soft, the content of his words made Fan Tiezhou's face turn white.
He bit his lip for a while and said, "There will never be such an illegitimate child, I can guarantee it!" ”
Fanning quickly glanced at his father, "What is my father going to do, do you want to divorce my mother?" ”
Fan Tiezhou shook his head, "I will never divorce your mother again, more than 20 years of husband and wife, where can I say that I can leave, I was ready to give up, but she is pregnant, I can't leave her alone, I will do everything possible to persuade your mother." ”
What Fanning wants is the attitude of his father, a woman can change back and forth, but the father's principle cannot change.
Fanning knows her mother very well, she is a typical knife-mouthed tofu heart, and she has always been very tough, but if her father really abandoned her for that woman, she would be heartbroken, as long as her father is willing to be wronged to the end and gives her mother enough dignity, then this matter can still be properly resolved.
Fan Ning said slowly: "Mother is a reasonable person, it's not that she doesn't understand, it's just that some of Daddy's practices have hurt her heart and hurt her self-esteem, as long as Daddy is willing to bow his head and beg her and promise her all conditions, she will accept that aunt." ”
Fan Tiezhou smiled bitterly, "Your mother is too hard, she may not be willing to agree!" ”
"That's because Daddy's sincerity is not enough, not today, ask for it tomorrow, not tomorrow, ask for it the day after tomorrow, as long as you insist on asking for a few more days, and ask for all the grievances to the end, my mother will agree."
After a pause, Fan Ning said again: "In addition, Zhu Pei's grandfather will give Zhu Pei the big mansion in Mudu Town as a dowry, that mansion covers an area of two hundred acres, you can move over, I think there are enough houses, and everyone's life will be a little better." ”
Fan Tiezhou sighed and said: "I listen to you, after begging today, I beg her tomorrow, begging her for ten days and half a month, I hope she can change her mind." ”
"But I want to remind my father that even if my mother shouts the word 'divorce' to the sky and shouts it ten thousand times, these two words must never come out of my father's mouth, and I hope my father must remember this."
Fan Tiezhou nodded, "I know your mother's temper, I will never say these two words." ”
"Oh well! Daddy went back to entertain my uncle well, this is also to save face for my mother, I don't care. ”
Fan Tiezhou patted his son's shoulder, turned around and left, Fan Ning looked at his father and walked away, his heart was like a mirror, whether he could properly solve his parents' marital crisis was not his mother's attitude, but whether his father was willing to show sincerity.
