Chapter 65: The Lamb to the Slaughter

Men are drinking at one table, and women are chatting at one table.

This situation and this scene were just like when Zhao Jinlan passed by in a carriage, and Zhao Jinlan was in a trance for a while.

"Grandma Zhao is here!" When a little girl saw Zhao Jinlan, she shouted loudly.

When Li Xuan'er heard this, she immediately looked out of the door, and when she saw Zhao Jinlan and Song Jin, she immediately smiled and hurriedly came out to greet them.

The two entered the courtyard, and after they sat down, the young people from their own family brought tea and water, and then came over one by one to say hello, and a few small beans even sent candy, with cautious and flattering smiles in their eyes.

"It's all scattered, don't disturb our sister's chat." Li Xuan'er gave an order, and all the young people dispersed, and the children ran away in a swarm.

Only the youngest little granddaughter didn't leave, crawled into Li Xuan'er's arms, and hugged Li Xuan'er and lied to her.

Li Xuan'er was helpless for a while, so she could only let her lie in her arms, and then smiled bitterly: "These little things are too troublesome." ”

Zhao Jinlan smiled: "Children, aren't they all like this." ”

Li Xuan'er smiled: "Yes, it's all like this." Why do you think my life is so miserable? I finally raised a wave of cubs, but there was another bunch! I've been wondering when I'm going to have time to go out for a walk, and ah...... This bunch of stuff, how do you go? ”

Hearing this, the eldest son not far away was not happy: "Mother, you have to speak with your conscience." Our brother said to take you out, but you don't go out, okay? ”

Li Xuan'er scolded angrily: "Go out? What to do with the cubs who go out of the house? Do you bring it? ”

The other side immediately didn't dare to say anything......

Li Xuan'er said to Zhao Jinlan gently: "It's still my sister who is comfortable, I've seen all the rivers and mountains, unlike me, ......"

Zhao Jinlan smiled: "Sister, maybe this is what you have and what you lose." ”

Li Xuan'er nodded: "Maybe." ”

"Mother, our brothers have discussed, and after the New Year, our brothers will take you two elders to travel around the country. You can't refuse, or we'll tie you up and go! ”

Li Xuan'er snorted: "Don't waste money, live a good life!" Still carrying me? Who dare me? ”

As a result, three days later, Li Xuan'er was picked up by a group of children and went to travel to the famous mountains and rivers of Jingguo.

Zhao Yinglan, who knew the news, sent her blessings, and asked people to catch up, secretly stuffed some money for Li Xuan'er, and told her partners to help take care of it.

This year, Li Xuan'er finally traveled all over Jingguo, and even went abroad to take a look.

A year later, Li Xuan'er came back and pulled Zhao Jinlan to tell about the beauty of the outside world.

"Sister, when I heard you say back then, I only thought it was good outside. Now that I really went out to see it, it was really good. The mountain, the water, is exactly what you said back then! ”

This time, it was Li Xuan'er's turn to keep talking, and Zhao Jinlan became the audience.

Another decade has passed, and Song Kim is gone.

This time, the funeral was still beautiful, but there was no filial son and grandson for the funeral, only Zhao Jinlan was dressed in linen and filial piety, and she was conspicuous in the crowd.

This year, during the Chinese New Year, Li Xuan'er's great-granddaughter timidly ran to Zhao's house and invited Zhao Jinlan to Lu's house for the New Year.

Zhao Jinlan refused.

Looking at the red lanterns all over the yard, looking at the sumptuous Chinese New Year's Eve on the huge golden silk nanmu table, listening to the sound of firecrackers outside, the laughter of children, the barking of dogs, and the shouting of adults......

Zhao Jinlan sighed and didn't say anything.

Another three years have passed, whether it is Zhao Jinlan or Li Xuan'er, their bodies are no longer good, and they can't go out.

On this day, Li Xuan'er was pushed by the children in a wheelchair to say goodbye to Zhao Jinlan, because Li Xuan'er was leaving Yuze County, and followed the children to live in the county town, so that the children could take care of her and Lu Xiucai.

When they were separated, Li Xuan'er hugged Zhao Jinlan and cried.

"Sister, I'm afraid it's hard to see each other again, I'll miss you." Li Xuan'er cried.

Zhao Jinlan also cried.

Seeing Li Xuan'er leave, Zhao Jinlan only felt that this world had entered winter ahead of schedule, cold and colorless.

Zhao Jinlan's health is getting worse and worse, and she has more and more time to sleep, and when she is awake, she finds that there are always inexplicably fewer things at home.

Some people even ignored Zhao Jinlan directly......

The food was getting worse and worse, the weather was cold, there was no charcoal fire in the house, and it took a long time for someone to come and answer, and then there was no follow-up.

When she woke up unintentionally, Zhao Jinlan heard a maid talking.

"Why aren't you dead?"

"It's almost there, it's not a few days."

"Tomorrow there will be less food, it's cold, give her less clothes, and send her on the road early."

"Well, that's pretty good. As I said, she's dead, so we can all share a lot of money......"

Only then did Zhao Jinlan understand that this was someone's property that was worried about their family. Although those subordinates have followed her for many years, she is all a person who is about to die, who can still be loyal to her?

For a while, she only felt that it was even colder in this huge house......

In the end, Zhao Jinlan walked out of the door, found an acquaintance back then, sold all the property, and dismissed all the subordinates.

The eyes of the people who were extremely resentful and wanted to eat people, she always remembered it vividly.

Zhao Jinlan deposited the money in Yinzhuang, and then lived in the best nursing home in the county.

I thought that with the reputation of this nursing home, my next life would be better.

However, Zhao Jinlan was wrong.

At the beginning, the people who took care of her were still very polite, but when the other party knew that Zhao Jinlan was alone, had no children, no daughters, and no close relatives, his attitude towards her was much worse.

But it didn't go overboard......

A year passed in a hurry, and no one came to see Zhao Jinlan during this year.

The person who took care of her seemed to be sure that no one in this world cared about this old lady anymore.

So one evening, the woman who took care of Zhao Jinlan walked into Zhao Jinlan's room with unkind eyes, and said very bluntly: "Give me ten taels of silver, I promise to be better for you." Eat and drink, it will be good......"

This is a naked robbery!

What kind of temper is Zhao Jinlan? If it was before, she would definitely scold the other party angrily, but now, when she opened her mouth, she didn't dare to say anything after all, but silently gave the other party ten taels of silver.

The other party smiled happily, but it was as if Pandora's box had been opened.

The woman came almost every day to ask for money, from ten taels to twenty taels, thirty taels, and even one hundred taels!

In the end, the woman directly snatched Zhao Jinlan's money bag!

Zhao Jinlan angrily wanted to complain to the director of the nursing home, but she used too much force, fell off the bed, and broke her leg.

And this was the beginning of her nightmare.

Unable to walk, she has completely become a caged finch and a lamb to the slaughter.
