Chapter 31: Because of My Sister
It was cold outside the house, and after everyone left, Li Rulan hurriedly took the children back to the house.
She put Xiao Niannian in the cradle and added a handful of charcoal to the brazier.
Then he took out two handkerchiefs from the closet, went to the house, wrapped two bags of snow and gave them to the dumplings, and taught them to put them on their faces.
"Come on, you two just put the snow on your face, and it won't hurt so much after a while." Li Rulan touched the little heads of the dumplings and the balls distressedly.
"You two are really brave when you two dare to stand up and protect your brother. But next time, don't do it again, while protecting others, you must first see your own ability. You're too young to protect others, you're going to hurt yourselves. When you grow up and are capable, it's not too late to stand up and protect the people you care about. ”
The dumplings held a snow block and pressed it on their faces, and their eyes seemed to understand whether they understood or not.
Tuanzi frowned and thought for a while, tilted his head and said, "But mother, that Tuanzi can't stand there and watch his brother being beaten!" ”
Yuanzi nodded vigorously and agreed: "That's it, our little injury is nothing, the third brother has been beaten like that......"
Everyone's eyes looked at Huzi, who pouted his ass and half-lay on the bed, his head stuffed in the quilt, not knowing what he was thinking.
Xiao Niannian also frowned and looked at the third brother, her little face full of displeasure.
Speaking of which, the third brother was beaten like this in order to maintain her rations.
That group of bad guys actually beat the third brother like this.
Even if they were stung by bees and covered in bags, she was not surprised.
It wasn't until she sensed that the goats and hens that had been taken away by Shen Yaocai had returned to the farm space that Xiao Niannian showed a satisfied smile.
If she dares to bully her family, she will naturally have to pay a heavy price.
It was hers, and no one could take it with her without her permission.
It's a pity that Shen Yao ran too fast, and it was a pity that he didn't let the bee army give him a full body massage.
But don't worry, Xiao Niannian saw him leave and cast his greedy eyes on the kitchen, thinking that it was the idea of another sheep.
When the time comes, if he dares to stretch out his hand, Xiao Niannian promises that he will be unforgettable.
"Squeak...... Just then, the door was pushed open from the outside.
Shen Zhengwen stepped in sideways and quickly closed the door, locking the warmth in the room.
He rubbed his hands that were a little red from the cold, and said to Li Rulan: "By the way, I just saw Sheng Niangzi's carriage outside the door. ”
Li Rulan heard him mention Sheng Ziyi, stopped what she was doing and asked, "Ziyi?" This snowy road is so difficult, what is she going to do? ”
Shen Zhengwen said: "I also thought like you, so I went to greet you." Listening to her coachman, Sheng Niangzi was infected with a serious illness and had a high fever, so she specially came to ask Dr. Wang to treat the disease. ”
"What?" Li Rulan immediately couldn't stand still and wanted to open the door to see Sheng Ziyi.
"Hey, you wait for me to finish talking." Shen Zhengwen helplessly stopped in front of her, "Now that everyone's carriages have left, it's too late for you to go." ”
Li Rulan was still worried, "Ke Ziyi is fine, how could he get a bad disease?" Did Dr. Wang help her see a doctor? ”
Shen Zhengwen pulled her to the brazier and pressed her to sit on the small bench.
"Don't worry, Dr. Wang not only treated her, but also left with her carriage. With Dr. Wang here, it will be fine. ”
Hearing him say this, Li Rulan's heart finally relaxed.
Shen Zhengwen also sat down next to the brazier, took out the document of severance from his arms, and looked at it again and again.
Li Rulan looked at the document and suddenly burst into tears.
Once upon a time, Mrs. Shen and Shen Yaocai's family was simply a nightmare for the two of them.
When she married into the Shen family, Mrs. Shen didn't even hold a decent wedding for her in order to save money, and Shen Zhengwen always felt ashamed of her.
But this is nothing in her opinion, the most difficult thing is that she was forced by her mother-in-law to go down to the river to make clothes the day after giving birth, and everyone in the family let her wash the clothes alone.
The river was bitterly cold, her hands were frozen and bleeding, and she had to hide them from her husband.
She gave birth to five children, and Mrs. Shen never hugged or said anything, let alone let her have a good month, so her body was so bad.
It was precisely because she knew that Shen Zhengwen was in a difficult situation in the Shen family, so in order not to embarrass him, Li Rulan swallowed many grievances and didn't tell him.
It wasn't until one time, when Shen Zhengwen returned from hunting in the mountains, that he saw Mrs. Shen beating her with a broom, and Shen Yaocai and his wife fanned the flames on the side, so they knew that his wife was suffering such inhuman torture at home.
Shen Zhengwen immediately stepped forward to protect his wife, quarreled with Mrs. Shen and immediately asked to split up.
But he was in the prime of life, and he was a good hunter, and Mrs. Shen was reluctant to let him be a strong laborer, and she didn't agree to split the family.
Until this year's drought, Shen Zhengwen was not very concerned about hunting, so Mrs. Shen found an excuse to drive them out in order to save food.
Shen Zhengwen was not nostalgic, signed the deed of separation and left with his family, and vowed in his heart that he would never return to that home.
Now that I finally got the certificate of disconnection, I finally have nothing to do with Mrs. Shen anymore.
Shen Zhengwen stroked his wife's cheeks, which had gradually become a little rosy over the past few days, and wiped away her tears with his hand.
"Rulan, just wait, in the future, our days will only be sweet, and there will be no bitterness."
*
At dinner, Shen Zhengwen cooked a pot of porridge and fried a bowl of eggs and cabbage.
In fact, he hid more than ten eggs, at least thirty.
It's just that there are so many people in it, and he doesn't want to attract attention, so he says that there are only ten.
However, he also secretly wrote down who lacked eggs, and a few of them were close to him, and he donated a lot of food to him some time ago.
He plans to send a few eggs to the families of those who have donated food later, which will be regarded as his reward for those people.
After the meal was ready, Shen Zhengwen shouted that it was time to eat, and Tie Zi and Plug hurriedly walked into the kitchen to help serve the food.
Several people brought the food into the main room, and Shen Zhengwen called the others to eat at the table, but found that they were all sullen, and they were not even happy to see their favorite eggs.
Shen Zhengwen put down the bowl in his hand and asked, "What's wrong with everyone today?" How's your face doing? Does it still hurt? ”
Danzi Yuanzi sat down at the table and picked up the rice bowl, shaking his head silently.
Shen Zhengwen was even more curious, "Then what's wrong with you?" Why are you so upset? ”
Tuanzi looked at the direction of Xiao Niannian, "It's because of my sister." ”
Xiao Niannian, who had just been fed goat's milk by Li Rulan, burped and looked confused.
She didn't cause trouble, why was it because of her?
Yuanzi nodded vigorously, "Yes, it's because of my sister!" ”
Xiao Niannian: ???
I really can't figure it out, how can she be so cute, kind, smart and beautiful, how can she make people unhappy?
