Chapter 58 No lifting
Although the room is not spacious, it is still brand-new. As soon as he enters two rooms, Lin Jinrong is waiting to sit outside. There is a bookcase leaning against the wall, and there are a few old books. Next to the bookcase are several large locked boxes and cabinets, with yellow happy words, a long table with vases, incense burners and other things, and several six open-sided open-painted stools. Although it is neat and has everything that should be there, it can be seen that the wood workmanship is just ordinary.
After a while, Ma Shi brought in a brass pot and said, "I'm really sorry. I don't have good tea. My sister can warm my stomach casually." I poured a cup of hot tea for Lin Jinrong and handed him a plate of melon seeds. After two words, someone gently knocked on the window twice. Ma stood up and walked out in a whimity: "I'm afraid something's wrong, the fourth sister sit down slowly. If you can't stand it, go to ** to lie down, and then change the quilt. It's clean.
"Sister-in-law, you are busy, don't worry about me." Lin Jinrong poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to Litchi with his own hand: "Let you come out with me in the middle of the night to blow the cold wind, and drink a cup to warm your stomach. Bring a stool and sit down."
"What's the girl talking about? You and your wife are not afraid. Are you still afraid?" Litchi thanked her for holding the tea cup, sat diagonally by the charcoal basin, and whispered, "This house is so quiet."
It seemed that she was not alone. Lin Jinrong gently stroked Litchi's hand. The master and servant meant staring at the copper charcoal basin in a daze. I don't know how long it took, and I suddenly heard the crying outside. Then Chunya walked in with a pale face and said, "No, my wife asked the girl to sit here. Don't go out and don't collide."
Sure enough, he stepped into the ghost gate with one foot and died if he couldn't take it back. Lin Jinrong was silent for a moment and sighed, "Where's the child?"
Chunya whispered, "It's a girl. I heard that she is a little weak." It turned out that when Mr. Shui came earlier, this grandmother Chang had already fainted. After applying the needle and using the ginseng that Dow brought, it was just to give birth to the child.
Lin Jinrong couldn't help thinking that in such a family, Grandma Chang is also a sequel. Unless the eldest sister-in-law and eldest brother are kind, the girl's life will be sad, but I'm afraid it would be difficult to look at Ma and the young master of the Lin family.
Not long after, Tao came in with the help of Gong's mother and Tie Huai's family. She looked very miserable, her lips were pale, and her hands were shivering. It could be seen that the just-appropriate scene made her very excited.
Lin Jinrong quickly got up and helped Mr. Tao sit in his seat. He poured a cup of hot tea and handed it over. He didn't know what to say. After thinking about it, he had to say, "Mom, we are also causing trouble for others to stay here. Why don't we go back first and prepare something and wait for them Ask if you need manpower, so that you can pay for help.
Dow didn't want to stay here anymore, so he agreed. When several people walked outside, Lin Chang rushed over to see him off. He communicated with tears and said a lot of grateful words with a sad face. Tao couldn't stop to comfort him: "Do your best to know your destiny, and my condolences are just right by the way..."
Suddenly, I heard a shout inside. There were men shouting and women shouting, mixed with the barking of dogs. A teenager in white rushed out of the inner courtyard and ran to the Tao family. "Bata" knelt down and said in a hoarse voice, "Third wife, third wife, you are very kind and compassion My bitter sister, I'll make you a cow and a horse!"
Lin Jinrong saw clearly that the white clothes on the teenager's body were just a filial piety in his outer coat. He also held a baby wrapped in a baby in his arms. Behind him, the Ma family and the young man of the Lin family, and a man in his twenties, similar appearance, big The young man who was about the second young master of the Lin family rushed out. Seeing this situation, he stood still, and his expression was quite uncomfortable.
Ma's face was blue and said harshly, "Third brother, don't talk nonsense. It's shocking the third aunt!"
Lin Chang looked at Dow, gritted his teeth and kicked the teenager in the chest, and scolded angrily, "Little beast! Get out of here! Be careful to scare your sister!"
"He is still holding the child!" Lin Jinrong couldn't figure out what the situation was, but subconsciously exclaimed. However, although the teenager was kicked crooked by Lin Chang, he still stubbornly held the baby high, staring at Tao with wide eyes, and the baby in the infant cried faintly like a kitten.
Lin Chang pulled the teenager with a straight face: "Get in!"
The young man's face was as white as snow. As he struggled, he said in a hoarse voice, "Third lady, the third lady, saving people's life is better than building a seven-level pontoon. My mother's bones are not cold..." The rest of the words were covered in Lin Chang's mouth. Ma took
What kind of play is this? Dow frowned: "What's going on?" Lin Chang motioned to the two sons behind him to drag the teenager in, and said with a smile, "Let the third sister-in-law laugh. The child can't stand his mother's death. He is out of control and a little crazy. When he heard that his sister is weak, he thinks that we don't care... Don't care, don'
Master Lin said with a little sarcasm, "No, this is flesh and blood. Who won't care?"
The teenager struggled desperately. A face that had been covered with his mouth looked extremely distorted under the light. The snowflake fell on his head. The snowflake on his face quickly turned into water and flowed down his cheeks, but he didn't feel any coldness at all. He just struggled desperately. A pair of eyes that looked like Jichang The eyes are sad and desperate to the extreme.
Lin Jinrong is no longer the woman who knew nothing in the past. She also heard people's words in the later part of her previous life. In this world, there are cruel parents who have children. When they encounter fierce disasters, they are young and yellow. When life is difficult, they always drown the child in the basin. What's more, we are relatively rich, but because of marriage, we get married well. The woman's makeup is often twice as much as the man's. Parents and brothers don't want to share the family property, so they are also cruel. Among them, there are children and daughters, and most of them are drowned and abandoned.
Now the Lin Chang family is obviously very suitable for this condition. He has assets, an old father, two old sons of the original marriage, one of whom has just given birth to a son, and the other has not yet been married. He died, leaving an underage son and a newborn daughter... It has already been rumored to be weak. It is even more logical to have died after the event. The teenager clearly knew something, so he took the opportunity to escape for help. If they didn't care, the newborn baby would die.
If she hasn't met, forget it, but since she has met, she can't pretend not to know. Lin Jinrong took a step forward and shouted, "Uncle, is this my third brother? He has suffered great changes when he is young, and it is inevitable that he is a little unconscious. It happens that Mr. Shui is still there. Please ask him to diagnose his pulse and open a prescription? Before he finished speaking, he saw the young man's eyes lit up.
Lin Chang was stunned, and then ordered people to open the door: "No, thank you for your kindness. I have trouble you too much today, and I dare not delay you. If the third sister-in-law is dragged down because of this, I'm a sinner. I'll send you back first.
His family situation is complicated. Although Tao knows that there is no way, it is not easy for her outside woman to say much, and it is even more difficult to interfere in such a thing - it involves the battle between the wife and the dispute of family property, which is endless trouble. Although she was unbearable in her heart, she also took Lin Jinrong's Of all, you are busy. Let's go first. If you have something to say, that child is so pitiful.
Lin Chang lowered his eyes and agreed casually.
Lin Jinrong was pulled out by Tao. Seeing that the light in the young man's eyes slowly dimmed, he had not given up his struggle and kicked crazily under the imprisonment of two adult brothers, like a desperate, pitiful trapped beast.
The two channels reflected the snow, and the brand-new door was gradually closed, isolving the struggling teenager in it. Large snowflakes fell from the sky, and the cold wind roared on the mountains not far away, rolling up waves of snow fog.
There is a taste in the world called despair, real despair. You can see hope. It is even by your side. You feel its existence, but no matter how hard you try, you can't catch it. You can only watch it slip away ruthlessly between your fingers... Such a taste, once in a lifetime. That's enough. Lin Jinrong remembered his mood when he heard the distant relative of the Lu family tell her that Lu Yan had fled with his parents first, and thought of himself struggling desperately in the river, and his eyes couldn't help but feel a little wet.
She tightened Dow's arm and begged bitterly, "Mom, let's come. Let's just be nice to the end. Let's figure out what's going on? I think something is really wrong. The uncle of this clan said that he told him not to hurt the child, but he still kicked him. He didn't worry at all and was not measured... Saving people's lives is better than building a seven-level pontoon. Even if it's a misunderstanding, it's time to figure it out, so that he won He and the child don't have the protection of their mother. It's pitiful. If his family treats this child well, he won't blame us for having a lot of troubles. If he has a bad heart, we will do good deeds and accumulate virtue. I beg you..."
I don't know if it was Lin Jinrong's last words, "Without my mother to protect me, I feel sorry for you" moved Tao. Tao hesitated for a long time, frowned and loosened, and discussed with Gong's mother in a low voice: "Since you can't pretend to be deaf and mute, why don' I really can't. I'll treat this girl's wet nurse for him. That won't cost much."
Gong's mother looked very embarrassed: "Good wife, although this is to do good deeds and accumulate virtue, it is also an endless trouble. Who knows in the future..." Her words are still not enough, but it means to do good deeds and accumulate virtue according to her ability.
-----A little explanation, the word of the money-------
Please don't question it. This custom of having a child is well-documented.
This situation was very popular in the Song Dynasty, and Fujian was the most important situation. It also existed in rich places such as Jiangnan East Road and Liangzhe Road, which was a very serious social problem.
The "child" does not only refer to men, but also women, and the drowning of a baby girl is more serious than that of a baby boy. The main reasons are the disaster of the year, the failure to pick up the yellow, the difficult life and other reasons. Another is that because they have children in old age and face the problem of property division, parents and brothers do not want to have more children to divide the family property. As for the drowning of a baby girl, it is because in addition to the traditional boy preference, but also because of marriage and wealth, it is not willing to divide the family property, so she is unwilling to raise her daughter.
