Chapter 165 Burning the bridge across the river
Wang Cuilan had a bad premonition in her heart. Could it be that the Korean widow had just given birth to a baby and then went to their house for confinement? "Sister-in-law, this is what happened." Mrs. Wang smiled with a practiced reserve but not without arrogance, and said to Wang Cuilan as if she was giving alms: "Widow Han gave birth to a child and got sick. There is no place for her to recuperate in my house. I thought that the third child and his family would move out, right? Can you let her recuperate in your cabin?" She pushed Widow Han in disgust and pushed her in front of Wang Cuilan. Widow Han's body was shaking. She was holding her stomach with one hand and holding the door with the other. Her face was as pale as paper, her hair was messy and even stained with grass clippings and dust, and she had a smell of blood that could not be blown away by the wind. Wang Cuilan, who was experienced and had given birth a lot, knew at a glance that this Korean widow had probably not even wiped her body with hot water after giving birth. She probably just woke up and was losing strength, so she was dragged here by Wang Cuilan. . The sullen man behind him followed Xiaochun in a arrogant manner, with his hands folded across his chest and a frivolous smile. He was probably Xiaochun's mother-in-law, who came to support her. Wang Cuilan looked around at them, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Her wrinkled old face was full of impatience. She waved her hand: "The house has not been cleaned up yet. The cabin is ready for the autumn harvest." Food, how can there be a place for her to confine herself to recuperate?” Moreover, Widow Han must not be able to do anything during the confinement period. She would have to ask someone from her family to buy her daily food, clothing, and even the medicine she needed to recuperate during the confinement period, not to mention that Widow Han had to bring it with her. For a little girl, that's two mouths plus medicine money, which is a big expense. Not to mention that Widow Han was ill and smelled a bit of a fishy smell. It might be that the redness had not gone away, so she would have to wait for several months until winter to recover. Maybe she wouldn't recover by then, so they The family can't always provide for Widow Han and that girl, right?
Wang Cuilan refused directly: "Forget it."
Mrs. Wang's eyes were sharp, and she became hard-headed: "Why don't you agree?" She pushed Widow Han forward, causing Widow Han to fall into the door with a groan. The little girl who followed cried and went to help Widow Han. Because she cried too noisily, she was kicked twice by Xiaochun. "Stop crying, where are you mourning? That dead mother of yours hasn't died yet!" Xiaochun yelled, standing next to her brother, her waist was straight, and her belly also had a curvature, obviously she was trying to control it. The pregnant woman has an attitude. The little girl swallowed her cries and did not dare to cry anymore. She lay down next to Widow Han, trembling with fear. Someone gradually heard the noise in the backyard and went out to the front yard to ask. Seeing this situation, they didn't say anything and waited for Wang Cuilan and Granny Wang's family to deal with it. "I don't have room at home." Wang Cuilan said directly: "Besides, Widow Han gave birth to a big fat boy for your family no matter what. Why can't she come to my house for confinement to recuperate? How long will she have to do this?" Wang Cuilan and Mrs. Wang calculated the food, medicine and money that Widow Han needed to take to recuperate, as well as the work and things that her family had to do every day. They also named Widow Han and didn't know when she would recover. How could they have that? Energy to take care of? Having said this, we can no longer send people over no matter what. But Mrs. Wang didn't care much: "What's the matter? Just keep letting her work. And that girl, let her work in the fields too. When things get better, just drive them back. It won't cost you a few dollars." Money." "Mainly, it's not good either." Lin Dawei couldn't speak directly about this matter, so he tactfully said: "This person belongs to your family after all. It's a bit unclear if he lives in my family. It won't sound good if I tell him. There are so many children and men in my family." How can I let other people's widows and daughters live in my house?" Lin Dawei lit a cigarette, took two steps back to avoid standing in the wind, and put on a coat. He thought that Mrs. Wang was not a thing. Widow Han had just given birth to a big fat boy for his family. The child looked like... Wang has a wealthy family, so he originally thought that Widow Han would be able to settle down and stay at Wang Po's house to avoid disaster, but he thought it would take too long for her to give birth to a child. In addition, the conditions were not in place, and she was left sick directly. Grandma Wang saw that Widow Han would be of no use for a while. Not only could she not work, but she had to bring in the food after cooking, buy medicine, and wait for others to go out. After confinement, she recovered from her illness, and the fat boy was already pregnant, so she simply wanted to drive Widow Han out. But if they were driven out directly, their family would definitely be stabbed in the back by the villagers. With a roll of his eyes, he followed the words of Xiaochun’s mother-in-law’s brother and sent them directly here. Will Widow Han be driven away by then, or will she stay with her no matter what? It's okay with their family. "What's wrong with that." Mrs. Wang didn't care. Anyway, it wasn't their family that would be scolded then. She turned around and left: "That's it, I'll leave it to you. It doesn't matter how I use it when the time comes. Xiaochun is gone." She turned around and took Xiaochun away. The man with a somewhat malicious smile glanced at the people in the yard, and paused slightly when he landed on Lin Xiangrong. A flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he looked more She left after a few glances. Lin Xiangrong was looked at inexplicably, but she didn't care. She stepped forward and tugged on Wang Cuilan's sleeve: "Nai, let Aunt Han take a rest first. When you have time in the afternoon, go ask the village chief what to do." Otherwise, looking at Mrs. Wang's attitude of throwing people away, Widow Han probably won't be able to send them back, so she will have to ask the village chief to take action. It was a mess.
Lin Xiangrong thought for a while and brought Widow Han in to have a rest. It would be better to give her some food and get some food, so that Widow Han wouldn't have to sit there and complain about them. When the village chief comes, she can be smarter. , so as not to rely on their family. [Take good care of Widow Han, so that she won’t complain and come to our house. After the village chief comes, she insists on staying in our house. If Mrs. Wang doesn’t want to, then the village chief will have nothing to do. After all, she can’t take people away. Throw it on the road. 】 [I remember this was the case last time. No one in the family paid much attention to Widow Han. Even when they went to find Mrs. Wang, they couldn’t send her back. By the time they went to find the village chief, Widow Han was already dying from the torture. She directly hated our family and Mrs. Wang. My mother-in-law's family just stayed here, and the two families became a joke to the whole village. 】 As soon as Wang Cuilan heard her granddaughter's heartbeat, she immediately gave up the idea of scolding Widow Han. She waved to the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law: "From the elder's family and the second daughter-in-law, you two come here and carry Han Yatou to the small kang in the front room. Make some brown rice porridge for her to drink, and that girl. Don’t fall behind either.” (End of this chapter)
