There was an endless chill coming and going in the room.

Zhang Miao's voice in the house gradually weakened, Lin Xiangrong outside the house was carried by Lin Yuannan to the backyard, I don't know how long it took, Sanfu came over and said that Zhang Miao had already given birth to a son, but the son had only lived for seven months and did not live for an hour before he went, and the angry Zhang Miao fainted.

When he heard the news, Lin Xiangrong was flipping through the books, and when he heard the words, he raised his head and answered, and then lowered his head and touched the head of the three-flowered cat that came over, and his voice was a little weak: "I know." ”

In the front room, the house was extremely hot.

Yuan Xi hugged a swaddling baby, inside is a son who died early without heart and lungs well developed, he has always loved to laugh, and loves to fart when he is nervous, and he is very taciturn, the most inconspicuous of several brothers, but at this time he held his son's hand and cried bitterly in tears.

The pain of losing a child made Yuanxi extremely sad and angry, and no one could listen to it, and in the end, the swaddling clothes were snatched away by Wang Cuilan.

She closed the door, gave her second son a space to relax, gently opened the swaddling clothes and glanced at her grandson, sighed helplessly, replaced them with a fairly new swaddling one, stuffed a banknote and a coin into it, thought for a while and found the oranges that Lin Xiangrong bought some time ago into the child's arms.

This is done in the hope that the grandson who died early can live a better life in the next life, at least without worrying about food and clothing.

This happened at the end of the year, which hit the fighting spirit of the family, and at dinner in the evening, no one spoke.

Yuan Xi worked hard to pick up vegetables for Dani and Erni, and after this incident, he realized how precious children are, whether they are boys or girls, they are his children, and how unfair it is to favor one over the other like before.

In the final analysis, Yuan Xi was frightened, worried that something was wrong with the two daughters, although he didn't have too deep feelings for the two girls, but in the end it was his own species.

This made Dani and Erni look at each other, the two did not refuse Yuanxi's overture, washed their hands after eating, took a basin of hot water and brought a clean towel to the back room to take care of Zhang Miao, and after a while Erni came out and said, "My mother is awake, milk, my mother wants to see you." ”

She hesitated for a moment and said, "It seems that I want to ask about the younger brother, but the eldest sister and I don't know what to say, so we don't know." ”

The implication is that I hope Wang Cuilan can speak tactfully, so as not to stimulate Zhang Miao.

Wang Cuilan, who was old and sophisticated, nodded, beckoned Fang Hongying to clean up the house in a while, and asked Zhou Zhaodi to cook a bowl of brown sugar and eggs to eat in the house for Zhang Miao to eat, before entering the back room to talk to Zhang Miao.

Lin Xiangrong asked Sanfu in a low voice: "How did you deal with it?" ”

She blinked, and gestured with her hand.

"I found the goddess in the village and sent it, I want to put it in the front room for three days, tomorrow my father will go to make a small coffin, let's not go to the front house for the next two days, don't rush if you are not in good health." Sanfu touched Lin Xiangrong's forehead as he spoke, and after feeling a little hot, he hurriedly called Lin Yuannan to prepare antipyretic medicine for his sister to eat.

His tone was a little worried: "You go back and rest first, don't come to the front room if it's okay." ”

"Hey, I see." Lin Xiangrong took antipyretics, returned to the house in a round dress, waited for a few days before arriving at the front house, took a cage of rabbits, and followed Lin Yuannan and Lu Xiao to the town in a carriage to sell money.

She seemed to be in a lot of energy, and she was not affected by the illness, which made Lu Xiao, who was constantly looking at her, slightly relieved, and handed over a roasted sweet potato.

"This sweet potato is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and it's still hot, so it's just right to warm your body after eating." There is a big cage at Lu Xiao's feet, which contains seven or eight rabbits, all of which are extremely round, and they are very good to look at, and they will definitely be sold for a good price.

The money from this sale can be used to subsidize the family, buy more grain and meat to eat, this year's harvest is very poor, I heard that many families in the village are almost unable to eat food, especially the snow is so big, the pheasants on the mountain are not easy to catch, those pure free-range chickens are very clever, see people's footprints and run far away, will not be caught at all.

"Let's eat together, half for you and half for me."

The roasted sweet potato was very large and wrapped in paper, and it was even a little hot to the touch, so he broke half of it and handed the big one to Lu Xiao, and he took a small bite of the small half, thinking about the timeline absentmindedly.

She clicked on the light screen, stared thoughtfully at the text on it, and sensed the time of Lu Cheng's arrival through a little insignificant continuation.

"At the end of the year?"

[At the end of the year, Lu Cheng should set off to Xingjia Village, and the time is only a few days, it seems that Ning Zhennian forced them into a corner, so they came to Xingjia Village to find a way. 】

[So you said that Brother Xiaoxiao's house is going to come in two days? ] 】

[Do you want to go over and help Brother Xiaoxiao? ] He shouldn't be bullied. 】

Lin Xiangrong turned around with a pair of delicate big eyes, her little face was blown red by the wind, she finished eating the sweet potato and wiped her hands with a handkerchief, the wind blew over and lifted the snow to cover her face, and let her get into Lin Yuannan's arms.

And Lu Xiao just buried his face in the scarf, silently thinking that Lu Cheng would arrive in Xingjia Village in a few days, he had to find a way to appease Ruan Qing first, and the two of them found a way to join hands to hold down Lu Cheng, and also control Ruan Qing from getting out of control.

He exhaled a breath of turbidity, and very much hoped that Lu Cheng would die on the road, or that he would die in Xingjia Village and never return to the capital to fight with him.

He will definitely not show mercy, in the remote countryside, it is too simple to find out if a person dies accidentally.

The heavy snow on the road in the town has been cleared, and they first went to Fanxiang Pavilion to find Old Man Ruan to pay New Year's greetings.

The door of Fanxiang Pavilion is antique and elegant, push open the door and walk in, just enter the hot room, you can smell a faint wood fragrance, the house plays ancient records, the babbling opera continues to sound, the lit lamp and the light bulb illuminate the room very brightly.

"Grandpa Jiang, Brother Xiaoxiao and I are here!"

Lin Xiangrong jumped over the threshold, skillfully ran in and touched the puppy head picked up by Old Man Ruan, purring from the top of the head to the tip of the tail in one breath, the happy puppy's back arched, and rubbed her head with all his might.

Perhaps smelling the rabbit in the cage, the puppy burrowed its head into the lid again, and then was hit hard by the rabbit that jumped up, and it screamed twice and rushed into the house, just colliding with the old man Ruan who came out with a smile on his face.

"What's wrong with this dog?"

Old man Ruan almost fell, but he came out after holding on to the wall and standing firmly, and when he saw that several rabbits had bounced out of the cage, he knew how the dog was frightened.

He shook his head helplessly: "You, you know how to tease it, have you had breakfast?" Grandpa Jiang cooked porridge and ate it. ”
