Chapter 177: Why Let Them
When I received Lu Yanzhou's letter, it was morning.
After replying to Lu Yanzhou, Zhou Li'an began to prepare.
Because Lu Yanzhou wrote in the letter that Zhang Erlin's wife should have just given birth to a child, Zhou Li'an went to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy two packs of milk powder.
Thinking that when the child was young, he needed diapers or small clothes or something, Zhou Li'an also prepared twenty feet of cloth.
In view of the fact that it was already afternoon when I came back from the supply and marketing cooperative, it would take time to go to Zhangjia Village, and it might be dark not long after I arrived, so I had to rush back in a hurry, and I didn't have time to understand the situation or anything, Zhou Li'an went to Zhangjia Village the next day according to the address given by Lu Yanzhou in the letter.
Although he has an address, Zhou Li'an also found the approximate location, and he still needs to ask which door and which household is the Zhang family.
"Auntie, do you know which family Zhang Erlin's family is?"
Zhou Li'an asked when he caught someone.
"The Zhang Erlin family who was a soldier?"
"Yes, Auntie."
"What are you doing with him?"
Obviously, people at this time are gossiping.
Zhou Li'an replied truthfully, "My husband is Zhang Erlin's comrade-in-arms, didn't he sacrifice a while ago, my husband asked me to come and see Zhang Erlin's wife." ”
After finding out what Zhou Li'an was doing, the aunt immediately provided information.
"Girl, you are looking for Zhang Erlin's daughter-in-law, but you can't go to Zhang's house to find it!"
Listening to the aunt's tone, Zhou Li'an intuitively had a story and asked, "Auntie, what happened to the Zhang family?" ”
"Hey, the old Zhang family has done evil! As soon as Erlin died, their family drove Erlin's daughter-in-law and his daughter out. ”
"Why?" Zhou Li'an frowned and asked.
"Lao Zhang's family said that Erlin's daughter-in-law killed Erlin, and gave Erlin a money-losing product, so that Erlin was cut off from children and grandchildren, and he had to drive the mother and daughter out. Poor Erlin's daughter-in-law's mother's house has long been gone, and she was kicked out by her in-laws and could only live in a dilapidated house at the back of our village. ”
Zhou Li'an: "......"
This plot, she is familiar.
However, this did not prevent Zhou Li'an from feeling that his fists were stiff after hearing this.
"Auntie, thank you for telling me this, can you tell me the specific location of this Erlin daughter-in-law's current residence?"
Following the route pointed out by the aunt, Zhou Li'an found the current residence of Zhang Erlin's daughter-in-law Xiang Yan.
is worthy of the dilapidated house that the aunt said before, Zhou Li'an noticed that a corner of the house had collapsed.
Thinking of having a martyr's widow living in such a place, Zhou Li'an felt quite uncomfortable.
"Is anyone there?"
Zhou Li'an shouted while standing outside the dilapidated courtyard gate.
Soon, she saw a woman with red eyes coming out of the room.
When the woman saw her, she was obviously stunned for a moment, and then asked hesitantly, "Are you?" ”
Zhou Li'an told the woman about his identity and the reason for coming.
After hearing this, Xiang Yan's eyes seemed to be a little redder, and she hurriedly opened the courtyard door and welcomed Zhou Li'an out.
"This house is broken, the hall is collapsed, so I will wronged you to sit on the bed first." Xiang Yan said to Zhou Li'an with red eyes.
Zhou Li'an was about to say that it didn't matter, but he was attracted by the little baby lying on the bed.
"What's wrong with the kid?"
Zhou Li'an noticed that the little baby's lips were dry.
In Zhou Li'an's impression, whether it is a baby's lips or skin, it should be moisturized.
"I have a fever."
Although he guessed that the child might be uncomfortable, hearing Xiang Yan's answer, Zhou Li'an's heart still chuckled.
"Did you go to the doctor?"
Zhou Li'an was a little anxious when he asked this.
Because she was born in the era of developed information networks, she has heard and seen too many stories of children burning stupid because of fever.
“…… Not. ”
Xiang Yan replied with her head down.
"Then what are you still stunned for, send the child to the hospital first." Zhou Li'an immediately put down the things in his hand.
“…… I don't have any money. ”
When she said this, Xiang Yan's tone was obviously crying.
She had also taken the child to her grandmother and asked for money, but it didn't arrive.
"I've got it here, use mine first."
Zhou Li'an said, and stepped forward to look at the baby nervously, "It's important to see a doctor, and I'll talk about other things later, you can clean up a little diaper or something for the child first, I'm afraid it will be used for a while." ”
"Oh, good."
With Zhou Li'an's command, Xiang Yan immediately packed up her things as if she had found the backbone.
Zhou Li'an quietly fed the child a little spiritual spring while Xiang Yan was packing up his things.
After Xiang Yan cleaned up, Zhou Li'an directly drove the mother and daughter to the nearest health center.
The two stayed at the health center, and after making sure that the child did not continue to have a fever, Zhou Li'an continued to carry Xiang Yan's mother and daughter home on a bicycle.
"Thank you so much for today."
Xiang Yan hugged her daughter, who had no fever and finally slept peacefully, and said to Zhou Li'an.
"It's all as it should be."
Xiang Yan carefully put the child on the simple bed, and then said to Zhou Li'an: "Hungry, I'll go make something to eat, it'll be fine for a while, you wait a minute." ”
"No need, you're tired too, make some milk powder, let's drink a little by ourselves."
Zhou Li'an took out the milk powder she brought in the morning.
"What's so embarrassing about that? Treat you with what you have brought. ”
"Special methods in special times, the child is only you now, and you have to take care of yourself."
In the end, the two adults drank a bowl of milk powder each.
After drinking the milk powder, Zhou Li'an had the opportunity to talk about what he brought.
"Two packs of milk powder, you and the child can drink a little, there are some cloths here, you can make some diapers or small clothes for the child, and there is a hundred yuan here, which my husband told you to accept."
After speaking, Zhou Li'an stuffed the hundred yuan into Xiang Yan's hand.
"This ......"
Xiang Yan didn't know what to say.
Originally, when she went out, her eyes were not so red.
At this time, looking at the things and money that Zhou Li'an brought over, her eyes turned red again.
Xiang Yan has actually had a very painful time during this time.
First, the only husband in the world who was good to her was sacrificed, and then she was kicked out by her in-laws in that name, and then her daughter had a fever and had no way to ask her in-laws for help......
For a moment, Xiang Yan wanted to follow her husband.
But when she thought that her daughter was still so young, Xiang Yan couldn't bear it after all.
"What are your plans for after that, will it always be like this?" Zhou Li'an asked, "Now that the child is still young, it is obviously inseparable from people around him, what are you going to do?" ”
"I don't know what to do." Xiang Yan said blankly.
"When your husband dies, there must be a lot of pensions, how about you and your children should have half, with this money, you and your children will not have a hard time in recent years, do you want it?"
Hearing Zhou Li'an's question, Xiang Yan hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Yes." ”
If it were herself, then if Granny Qian didn't give it, she wouldn't want it.
But she still has a daughter......
"I asked for it, but they wouldn't give it."
Xiang Yan whispered.
"That's easy to do."
Zhou Li'an sneered, "If you don't come, we'll let the Ministry of Armed Forces ask for it." When the time comes, they say that you are the nemesis, and they will be liquidated together. ”
"How to liquidate?"
Xiang Yan was curious.
"Feudal superstition, naturally, should be educated."
Zhou Li'an is still ready to use this set.
The so-called good knife is not afraid of old age, as long as it is useful.
Hearing Zhou Li'an say this, Xiang Yan understood.
But she was obviously a little hesitant, "Wouldn't this be bad?" Are they Erlin's parents ......"
Although they said that she was very uncomfortable when she killed Erlin.
How could she kill Erlin?
She can't wait to die for such a good Erlin, okay?
"You care that they are your husband's parents, but they don't care that you are your husband's wife, you are holding your husband's daughter, such people, why do you care about them?"
Zhou Li'an doesn't like the kind of people of the older generation who do wrong things, who are children, or even the partners of children, have to take care of the older generation and get used to the practices of the previous generation.
It's the first time they're all people, why let them?
