Chapter 26: Young and Strong Li Zheng
"What's wrong with you?" Chen Lai Fu turned around and asked, taking the opportunity to hold Liang Jinyu's arm.
Liang Jinyu squatted down and avoided it: "My stomach hurts so badly, I don't know what's going on. Dani, are you in pain?"
Chen Dani blinked and wanted to say it didn't hurt, but she was so smart that she reacted immediately.
"Oh my, I didn't feel anything before you said it, but as soon as you said it, I felt a sharp pain in my stomach. Is there something wrong with that bowl of tofu pudding?" Chen Dani regretted it so much that she covered her stomach and it was spinning in pain.
Chen Lai-fu looked at the mother and daughter, each screaming more miserably than the other, with veins throbbing on his forehead.
"I told you not to eat the wrong things. Now something's wrong, right? I'm going to settle the score with that quack doctor!" Chen Laifu was about to go back angrily.
Liang Jinyu hurriedly stopped the other party: "We are unfamiliar with the place, so don't cause trouble. Just find a toilet."
"I can't hold it anymore, hurry up." Chen Dani urged, squeezing her legs together.
Chen Lai Fu looked around. How could he know where the toilet was in such a big village?
"It seems to be there. Dani, come with me." Liang Jinyu shouted and ran towards the path below.
Chen Dani followed closely behind, and the two of them disappeared after turning the corner.
Upon seeing this, Chen Lai Fu immediately became alert and chased after him.
"Dad, we are here." Chen Dani shouted from outside the toilet not far away.
Chen Laifu breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Where's your mother?"
"He's in there. Dad, please watch over him for us. Don't leave." Chen Dani shouted and turned around to go into the toilet.
At the same time.
On the small path behind the toilet, Liang Jinyu ran all the way down the valley according to what he had learned from the woman.
Dani can only hold out for the duration of an incense stick at most, so she must hurry.
Fortunately, the area of Ri Zheng’s house is indeed large enough to be recognized at a glance.
Liang Jinyu covered the silver in her arms and ran to the door of Li Zheng's house in one breath.
"Hey, who is this girl? She is running so fast. Be careful not to fall." A middle-aged woman came out of the house and joked when she saw Liang Jinyu.
Liang Jinyu covered her chest and calmed down, then asked with a smile: "Is Li Zheng's family here?"
"Oh, you are here to see him. Come in." The woman said, and looked at Liang Jinyu again with a narrow gaze.
Liang Jinyu was anxious and didn't pay attention, so she followed him into the house.
"Chuan'er, someone is looking for you." The woman shouted inside.
Liang Jinyu was surprised to hear this name. The woman didn't look that old, but she called Li Zheng "Chuan'er".
Liang Jinyu tucked her temples, straightened her clothes, and then looked inside.
"Who's looking for me?" A strong young man in blue came out.
Liang Jinyu quickly stood up straight, a look of surprise flashed across his eyes, and then quickly disappeared.
Xiang Linchuan also noticed the woman in the hall and raised his eyebrows. When did such a beautiful girl come to their manor?
"Which village are you from?" Xiang Linchuan spoke first.
Liang Jinyu replied, "I am the daughter-in-law of Chen Laifu from Yanghe Village. My last name is Liang."
Married?
Xiang Linchuan suddenly felt bored and said in a businesslike manner, "What do you want from me?"
Liang Jinyu covered the silver coins on his chest and was afraid to take them out.
"I want to ask about the household registration certificate."
Liang Jinyu then lied, saying that they had fled to Shaozhou, so their original household registration certificates had been lost. Liang Dingfang was going to work in a neighboring county a few days later, so he was anxious to get a replacement household registration certificate.
Xiang Linchuan sat astride a chair, his sturdy figure giving people an invisible sense of pressure.
Liang Jinyu inexplicably had a familiar feeling, which made her feel a little relieved.
Xiang Linchuan twisted his neck out of habit, making a "click" sound, but his falcon-like eyes were fixed on the woman in front of him.
"Escape? Where did you escape from?" Xiang Linchuan asked.
Liang Jinyu said calmly: "My hometown is Yangsumo City. There was a flood three years ago and the house collapsed. I had no choice but to move north to make a living."
"Yang Sumo City...three years ago." Xiang Linchuan rubbed his chin, thoughtfully.
Liang Jinyu was not worried that he would investigate because there was indeed a flood in Melbourne three years ago and she had organized donations at that time.
After a long while, Xiang Linchuan finally spoke: "Come back in seven days."
Liang Jinyu was delighted and said gratefully, "Thank you, Li Zheng."
In the end, no silver was given away. Liang Jinyu had seen many people like Xiang Linchuan. Compared with real gold and silver, strong liquor and beautiful women could please them more.
The beauty Liang Jinyu didn't have it, but she could buy strong liquor.
Next time you come, please bring some altar wine.
Liang Jinyu thought about it and quickened her pace.
A piece of the toilet had collapsed behind it, and the corner was filled with ashes.
Liang Jinyu climbed in with great effort, and the moment she jumped in, grass and ashes flew everywhere.
"Cough, cough, cough..." Chen Dani covered her mouth and coughed non-stop, "Be gentle."
"I'm sorry, your father doesn't have any doubts, right?" Liang Jinyu asked in a low voice.
Chen Dani pouted: "Hurry up and get out. I've urged you several times."
If she hadn't been covering here, Chen Lai Fu would have broken in long ago.
The mother and daughter tidied up and then left the toilet one after another.
"Why does it take so long?" Chen Lai Fu asked unhappily.
Liang Jinyu made up an excuse to get away with it, but her heart was still beating fast until this moment.
She had anticipated many possibilities before coming, but she never expected things to go so smoothly.
In her previous life, she compromised for the household registration certificate and even lost her life. She thought it was such a difficult thing to deal with. It turned out that the so-called difficulties were all illusions created by Chen Lai Fu.
If she had been braver, if she had come and asked in person, the outcome might have been different.
...
On the way back, the three of them had their own thoughts.
Chen Dani was not stupid. After thinking about it, she felt that things were a bit strange and seemed different from what was described in the book.
For example, in the book, Liang Jinyu died of dystocia, which means that she was able to get pregnant, but now the doctor says she is infertile.
And Chunniang, the book doesn't say that Chen Laifu ever took a concubine.
However, when she thought about the fact that they were just cannon fodder characters that couldn't be any smaller, and that the story only began three years later, Chen Dani felt that the discrepancies were normal. After all, no one knew what would happen three years later.
Liang Jinyu listened to Dani's thoughts, feeling worried but secretly glad at the same time.
She was afraid to hear about the misfortunes between her and Ding Fang, but she was also glad that she was reborn so that she could change everything.
Now that the household registration certificate has been obtained, the most important thing next is how to get Chen Lai Fu to agree to the divorce.
I thought that since Chunniang was already born and she couldn't have children, Chen Lai Fu would give up on her. I didn't expect the Chen family to be so shameless that they even came up with the idea of taking a concubine.
Liang Jinyu's previous joy gradually faded, and only a burning sense of urgency remained in her heart.
It was already afternoon when I got home.
Mrs. Wang and Old Man Chen were not at home, and Liang Dingfang was chopping wood in the backyard.
"It's getting late, you should hurry up and cook." Chen Lai Fu said this and went back to his room to lie down.
Liang Jinyu started cooking after finishing her chores in the yard as usual.
When the meal was ready, Wang and Old Man Chen came back on time as if they could smell the food, and they were chatting and laughing.
But when she saw Liang Jinyu, Wang immediately said sarcastically, "Why do you have to make this trip? Are you ready to give birth now or what?"
Liang Jinyu lowered her head and said nothing.
