002 Wait for her to die
"Dead slut, you dare to play with your mother, dare to hide your private money!"
A short and fat figure burst out of the upper room, rushed into the kitchen, and slapped the middle-aged woman in the face!
"Mother, I'm ...... I didn't hide my money! ”
The middle-aged woman Ye Shi covered her red cheeks and looked at the old woman in front of her aggrievedly, this is her mother-in-law Du Pozi.
"You stupid slut still dare to quibble, don't hide where the money to buy medicine is private!"
Du Pozi searched everywhere, trying to find out the medicine and money. That little slut kept getting angry with her, and she never thought that they would boldly go to Lang Zhong to see a doctor and buy medicine, so wouldn't their own money be far away!
"The medicine was given to Xiao Liu and Xiao Qi on credit by Lao Lang." Ye muttered in a low voice.
"Dead slut, if you want to rebel against the sky, don't you have to pay back the medicine on credit? Li Fudu said that Wuya was not saved before he sent people back, what kind of medicine did the people who would die use, do you think that the Chu family's money was blown by the wind, and there was so much that there was no place to spend it? Hurry up and hand over the medicine, and the old lady will take it and return it! Du Pozi pointed at Ye's nose viciously and scolded: "Dead slut, you are so capable, why don't you leave this family to you!" ”
Ye's face was pale, and he lowered his head and didn't dare to speak.
"Dead slut, you are dumb, do you have to force the old lady to let the third child take a break from you?"
Du Pozi scolded and slapped her a few times, but Ye just lowered his head and cried and never spoke. Du Pozi's eyes rolled and went straight to the ear room of the West Wing.
I saw that the door was closed, Du Pozi kicked her foot without saying a word, there was a muffled sound, and her feet hurt so much that she almost fell, but fortunately one person was supported by the side, but it was her baby girl Chu Baofeng.
"Little six, little seven, two little kings, and eight little kings, if you don't open the door for your milk obediently, you will feel better in a while!" Without waiting for Du Pozi to speak, Chu Baofeng scolded loudly.
"Grandma, auntie, it's me! Shichiro hasn't come back yet. Rokuro in the room replied loudly, gesturing to Xiaoqi to silence.
"You little Wang Ba, I believe you are weird! Dare to disobey your elders at a young age, and your grandmother's legs will be broken! Open the door and get out! Chu Baofeng scolded.
"I'm really the only one in the evening aunt's house, and if you don't believe it, Shichiro will carry the pigweed back to show you. What should I do if I kicked my milk too hard just now and I can't open the door and latch?" Rokuro's tone sounded anxious, but there was a smug smile on his face.
Du Pozi rubbed her sore legs, and when she saw that her daughter had no tricks to take Liulang, she breathed a sigh of relief and said angrily: "How many packs of medicine do Xiaoliu have left?" How much did it cost? You hand the rest out of the window, and the milk doesn't get angry with you. ”
"You can't help it if you're angry, Lao Langzhong only prescribed a pack of medicine to the fifth sister, and I just cooked it. The money for the medicine is only five cents, and he said that he will pay it back when we have the money. Rokuro replied firmly.
"Fart, no one in the village of that old guy's moral dragon kennel doesn't know, a casual pack of medicine will cost dozens of dollars! Bunny, you dare to even tell your milk, I won't discount your legs for a while! ”
"Oops, the milk is not good, my hands and feet were suddenly scared and weak, and I can't move!"
"Hmph, you're amazing! You just stay inside with that dead girl and wait for death, don't think about eating tonight! Du Pozi angrily brushed her sleeves away, and Chu Baofeng hurriedly followed.
When the mother and daughter returned to the upper house, Chu Baofeng saw that Du Po's anger had not subsided, so she hurriedly helped her rub her back, and her face was better.
"Mother, why do you have to deal with them, they are willing to go on credit, and they can find their own way when they repay their debts." Chu Baofeng was very puzzled.
Du Pozi kept silent with a gloomy face, what she cared about was not those packets of medicine.
The two brothers in the west wing saw the footsteps getting farther away, and they leaned on the window to peek for a long time, and then they breathed a sigh of relief.
"Xiao Qi, you sneak out quickly, and you will drag the pigweed back alone in a while. Then I went to the grandmother of the Zhou family to ask for a bowl of rice soup, which the fifth sister loves to drink. I stayed to take care of the fifth sister, as well as the medicine. ”
"Okay, I'll find a way to steal some sweet potatoes for you later, and then hide some food for you at night!" Shichiro nodded and crept out.
Chu Congrong, who was lying on the bed, was sometimes awake and sometimes unconscious because of the medicine, and he was confused about everything that happened.
I don't know how long it took, there was a gentle knock on the door outside, and Liulang, who was in a state of drowsiness, jumped up in fright, and took a closer look at the door through the crack of the door, and then opened the door with confidence.
Ye handed his son a small half bowl of multigrain porridge and told him to eat it quickly, saying that he was keeping a close eye on the milk and didn't dare to hide too much.
Rokuro took it and drank it in two sips, licking his mouth with a lingering appetite. Ye looked at his son guiltily and couldn't help but cry sadly.
"Mother is fine, Xiao Qi will get me some sweet potatoes in a while." Rokuro grinned and comforted his mother. "The fifth sister fell asleep after drinking the medicine, she seems to be a little better."
Ye looked at the sleeping girl on the bed lovingly, she was so thin that she was completely inhuman, and her heart hurt a lot, but she couldn't bear to touch her, for fear of disturbing her. just whispered to his son to guard his daughter in the afternoon and not to go anywhere.
"Mother can rest assured to work, I promise that I will stay by the fifth sister's side and never leave, and cook medicine for her to drink on time." Rokuro patted his thin chest and assured that he was doing what he said.
In the evening, the head of the Chu family, Old Man Chu, led the family members who went down to the ground to come back one after another.
Old man Chu had studied in his early years, and even took the Tongsheng exam, he was tall, and compared with other old farmers who didn't know a single word, he had a little more elegance. However, in the past few years, he has been crawling in the field, and he has somewhat developed the appearance of a cropper.
Ye's has made a family meal, and the main food for dinner is coarse noodles and porridge. There are two adults and one child in Wotou, and you can drink multigrain porridge. The dish is a large plate of boiled greens, a large bowl of pickled vegetables, and a plate of scrambled eggs with chopped green onions, cut into small pieces. Green vegetables and pickles are clamped, and the nest head and eggs are distributed by the old man Chu and Du Pozi.
The family was divided into two tables for men and women. The women's table, the big room Chen and two granddaughters, the second room Wang and two granddaughters, the third room is the Ye family, the fifth room Zhu family and a granddaughter, and there is Du Pozi and the baby girl Chu Baofeng. Eleven people crammed into one large table, which looked like a lot. However, Du Pozi knew very well in her heart, she distributed a nest to each person, and there were four left on the plate, but they were made of white flour, which belonged to her and her daughter. Everyone got a small egg, and there were still a few pieces left on the plate, but everyone consciously stopped eating an extra piece. To whom not to give to, that is the privilege of Du Pozi.
There are relatively few people at the men's table, only the second son of the five sons is at home, and only six of the nine grandsons, the eldest and second lang are in the town academy, and the third lang goes to serve The old man Chu is clear, he looked at it for a while before he found that there was no Liulang, and asked where he went, and Du Pozi replied that Liulang was disobedient and punished him for not having anything to eat.
Old Man Chu was silent, and when the head of the nest was divided, Qilang deliberately dragged it to the back, he took the head of the nest and quickly put it in his pocket, and then stretched out his long hand to Old Man Chu. Old Man Chu glared at him, hesitated for a moment and gave him one.
Shichiro stuffed the scrambled egg into his mouth, chewed it and swallowed it three or two times, and the vegetables didn't have time to take a few bites, so he took the multigrain porridge and drank it in several large bites, and rushed out as soon as he put the bowl on the table.
In the ear room of the West Wing, Liulang was already hungry, but he didn't dare to leave the room for half a step. Finally waited for Shichiro to appear and took out a nest head from his arms. Rokuro took it and gnawed it, not caring if it was dirty or not.
"You didn't get the rice soup?" Rokuro swallowed a few mouthfuls before he came to his senses and asked anxiously.
Qilang shook his head in disappointment: "Grandma Zhou said that she drank it all for Xiaodong at noon." ”
Xiaodong is the youngest grandson of Grandma Zhou, only three years old, and he was sick for a while, and the family obeyed Langzhong's instructions and went to the town to buy some white rice and boiled it for him to drink.
"Stupid, you're not going to ask them for rice!"
"Uncle Zhou said that he only bought two catties in total, and he didn't eat anything." Shichiro spread his hands helplessly. He's just a seven-year-old kid, and he can't tell whether the other party is really gone or reluctant to give.
"It's useless! You are responsible for guarding my sister, and I will borrow rice from Uncle Liu! If you are taken away by milk, see if I don't beat you flat! ”
Liulang was angry that he didn't steal sweet potatoes for himself in the afternoon, and he was even more worried about getting food for the fifth sister, so he turned around and ran out without worrying about him.
Shichiro was very helpless, his grandmother and aunt had never left the house all afternoon, how could he do it. If you want to steal it from the nearby field, there has never been a person in the field, and he can't do it.
After dinner for a while, Ye Shi finished his kitchen work and quietly brought a small bowl of multigrain millet porridge, which was actually the sweet potato cubes boiled millet porridge eaten at night. The porridge is so thin that it can shine brightly, there are not many sweet potato pieces, but there are not many millets.
"Girl, my mother doesn't have the ability to let you be wronged, you will just eat something, just wait for your father to come back." Ye helped her daughter sit up, muttering in her mouth.
Ye Shi looked at his dying daughter, thinking of her husband who went out to serve, and couldn't help but feel sad, and tears slipped down uncontrollably.
Chu Congrong on the bed felt that his whole person was in a state of dying, and he didn't feel anything about the strange woman in front of him who claimed to be his mother. When the sea bowl touched her mouth, she just opened her mouth blankly, unable to tell what was in the bowl, and she couldn't tell whether it tasted good or bad.
"Mother, my grandmother doesn't give you money to buy medicine, she just wants the fifth sister to die early. The grandmother said that when she died, she would go to marry someone else, and she would get six taels of silver! Shichiro whispered.
Ye's face changed greatly, and he reprimanded in a low voice: "Don't talk nonsense, children! ”
"I'm not talking nonsense! In the afternoon, I went to the house to listen to the root of the wall, and my grandmother told my sister-in-law! ”
It turned out that in the afternoon, Qilang wanted to go to the house to steal sweet potatoes, and heard the conversation between Du Pozi and Chu Baofeng's mother and daughter. Chu Baofeng was curious about Du Pozi's attitude of wishing for Wuya's early death, Du Pozi was a little impatient when asked, so he said that there was a rich family in Longtan Village, and a ten-year-old sister-in-law had not yet been 100 days old, and he wanted to find a girl who had just died to marry him, and he was willing to give six taels of silver. Du Pozi had already hooked up with the other party, and just waited for someone to breathe and pulled it over overnight.
In Du Pozi's opinion, not only did he save the funeral expenses, but he also received a few taels of silver, which is a great thing! The horizontal and vertical cheap girl lives hard and restricts her relatives, and it is better to die early.
Ye Shi listened to what his youngest son said, and even imitated Du Pozi's tone beautifully, knowing in his heart that this thing must be true, and he suddenly became sad.
My daughter was sent back by the Li Mansion, and my mother-in-law didn't catch a pack of medicine in the past four days, and the girl was completely lying in bed waiting for death. I asked her for money, but she bit Lang Zhong to death and said that she was not saved, and it was a waste to take medicine! Even the medicine that his twin sons finally got back on credit wanted to take away and return!
Mother-in-law turned out to be this ghost idea!
Ye couldn't help but think of her husband again, her husband Chu Youxian led his uncle Chu Youde and eldest son San Lang to serve in the county together. The three-month service period is just over halfway, and it will take more than a month to return. If they were at home, the situation might be a little different.
This year, there are ten people in the Yao service quota of Longgouden Village, and the Chu family only needs to produce one person. The candidate that Old Man Chu thought of was the fourth Chu Youde, and among the five sons, he had not yet married a family, so he had nothing to worry about alone.
Chu Youde was injured in the thigh by a pig arch when he was a child, and he walked with a little lameness. Chu Youxian was relieved that his younger brother would not go alone, so he took the initiative to ask the village chief for a place, and the village gave him 300 yuan. As soon as Mrs. Du saw that there was money to collect, she discussed with Old Man Chu, and even San Lang went with her. Although it is not much to fold down 300 yuan in three months, San Lang is already a seventeen-year-old guy, and it is better to eat more at home than to send it out, and save rice and grain and get more than 300 yuan.
"Don't worry, your father and fourth uncle will be back soon, just come back!" Ye's encouragement of his youngest son is actually more like cheering himself up.
