Chapter 180 Extra 4
After treating my aunt, my mother stayed at her house for a while. After my aunt woke up, the two of them had a chat.
"Tell me, your husband ran away from home. Did you two have a quarrel? I suspect that you two had a quarrel, so he ran away from home in anger. However, several months have passed and there has been no news. Aren't you worried that something has happened to him?"
Anniu nodded with tears in her eyes. Her parents didn't know about this.
He didn't plan to tell his parents. In fact, they had a big fight one afternoon a few months ago, but they happened in their own room. His parents didn't know about it because they had gone to the fields and were not at home.
"So what are you guys arguing about? Can you tell me?"
Aunt Anniu said sadly, "That day he told me in a serious face that he wanted to take his son home to let his parents take care of him, and asked me to take good care of the baby in my belly at home. I asked him why, whether my parents-in-law said something to him, and he remained silent. I told him that my son was the one I carried for ten months and gave birth to with great difficulty, and that my parents-in-law had never taken care of him, let alone visited him several times a day, so why should they take my son away from me? But my husband said that my parents-in-law were the child's relatives after all and had the right to take the child away. I didn't want to, so he said that if I didn't agree, he would leave and never come back. I thought he was just saying those words to get angry with me, but I didn't expect him to run away from home like that. I didn't dare to tell my parents. I just said that he wanted his son to go back, and if I didn't agree, he would leave, but I didn't expect that he was threatening me."
"Maybe he has already planned it, but you just haven't thought it through. What should we do now? If he doesn't come back one day, his parents will not give up, and you will be very distressed. You can't keep dragging it out again and again. If you continue like this, it will definitely be troublesome."
"I really don't know what to do. I just want to live a good life with my daughter. My parents are old, and my brothers are not around. I am the only one with my daughter. If my son is not with me, I will miss him all the time. Sister, do you have any good ideas?"
My mother said, "Relax, don't worry. I will go back and think of a solution and come back to tell you. But you also have to take care of yourself. Although I saved you this time, I don't know if I can save you if you get sick again next time. You still have a son and a daughter to take care of. You must not let yourself get sick."
Auntie held A Niang's hand and nodded vigorously, tears welling up in her eyes: "Ajie, I'm lucky to have you, otherwise I really don't know what to do.
I will listen to you and take good care of myself, but I feel so confused inside. ”
Ah Niang gently patted Auntie's hand and comforted her: "Don't worry too much, there will always be a way. I will think about it carefully when I go back. Don't worry, the solution cannot be thought of in a short time, it takes time."
Two days later, my father came back alone, but my brother didn't. I was very unhappy when I saw my younger brother alone. After all, I had been hoping that my brother would come back with my younger brother, but they didn't.
What does it mean that A Niang has already torn it apart when she sees that her son has not come back?
At night, after my mother coaxed me to sleep, she asked me a lot of questions about my brother, and my father told her everything.
"I knew this was the case. After all, he is the biological father of the child, so it is understandable that he does not want the child to come back. But I don't want to make the child unhappy. I don't know what to do."
But last night when everyone was getting ready to rest, my mother-in-law came to our house and said that my great-grandmother was dying. Because I was still asleep, my mother had to take me to my grandmother's house and let my uncle take care of me. My uncle came back a few days ago and brought a girl with him. The girl was not very good-looking, but she was very nice to my uncle. My mother told me some things about my uncle, and I also learned about him.
But my uncle also has to go. After all, as the only grandson in this family, he also wants to see his grandma for the last time.
So for a while it seemed like no one was taking care of me.
They had no choice but to send me to the village chief's house and let Aunt Anniu take care of me first.
In this way, I was sent to the village chief's house again.
When my uncle and my mother arrived at my great-grandmother's house, she was already lying on the bed dying. The last words she said were, "I hope my uncle is fine."
Then my great-grandma took her last breath. In fact, she is still in this village and is the old lady who has stayed there the longest.
After my great-grandmother passed away, some people in the village helped our family with the funeral. We buried her in a good place. I was only with them during the funeral. Usually I stayed at the village chief's house with that little sister and that little brother. Fortunately, the village was relatively peaceful these days and the village chief's relatives did not come.
As for the little brother and the sister's father, they seemed to have really disappeared and never appeared.
The little brother seemed to be very thoughtful. He and I were only a few days apart.
The little brother is very handsome, but we don’t have much time to play together, and I don’t know how to comfort him.
After the day of my great-grandmother's burial, I was taken back to my home.
A few days after I was taken back home, I received a letter from far away in the capital.
It's a letter from my brother.
My brother wrote a letter to me and my parents.
Because I didn’t read much, I didn’t recognize many of the words, so my father read them to me.
The elder brother said: "My sister, you must eat well, live well, take good care of yourself, listen to your parents, and study hard. I believe we will meet again one day."
Just in these few short lines, I felt there was so much reluctance between the lines, and I cried.
This was the first time I understood the meaning of separation. My father comforted me and said, "Don't cry, my dear girl. When your father and mother have saved enough money, we will take you to the capital to find your brother. We will definitely let you two meet again."
We have lived in this small mountain village for many years. I have never been to the capital. I only heard that this place is far away from the capital due to the high mountains and long roads, and it would take nearly a month to go back and forth.
Besides, I was young and my parents never said they must take me to Beijing.
So I didn't require to go, but I was still a little excited this time. After all, my brother is in Beijing, and I have never been to the prosperous area of Beijing. If I can get out of this small mountain village, I can go out and take a look.
After reading my brother's letter, my father and mother were sad for a while, and then they raised a question.
My mother said, "You know the last words my grandma said before she died were about my brother. She didn't mention my third uncle at all. Maybe in my grandma's heart, my third uncle has long been gone. Do you think my third uncle is still alive?"
"Then grandma must have known something, so she kept silent about your uncle. Maybe he knew that the child was unreliable and is no longer alive. Anyway, now that he is gone, it doesn't matter much."
This is indeed the case, when people leave, the tea gets cold.
The days are becoming peaceful day by day, and we are all living our own lives.
It was a fine day, and my parents planned to take me to stay at my grandparents' house for a few days. But before we even left the house, we saw an old woman and a young aunt appear at the door of my house. They wandered around for a long time and didn't dare to come in.
Father and mother saw their embarrassment and walked to the door to invite them in.
A Niang said, "Auntie, do you want to talk to me about something?"
As a result, the mother and daughter knelt down directly.
Everyone was confused by the faces of the mother and daughter.
"Auntie, please get up quickly. Why is this happening? Are you in trouble and need our help?"
The lady's daughter said, "We are begging you to save our lives. We heard that you are a very good doctor. My husband and I have been married for many years, but we have never had a child of our own. We heard that your medical skills are very good. We want to ask you to treat me and let me get pregnant as soon as possible."
Didn’t she just treat the village chief’s daughter’s illness? How come you have such a good reputation?
What is going on?
"Help him up quickly and talk to him if you have anything to say."
This is what my father said.
A Niang helped the mother and daughter up.
After pouring them some water, the old woman said, "I know the young lady is very skilled in medicine. I hope you can save our daughter. I am the only one who has been married to their family and worked like a cow for many years. We have never had a child and were almost divorced. We have asked around and begged you to save our family."
This made Gu Leyou not know what to do.
In the 21st century, she was not a gynecologist and was not very proficient in that area, but since people came to her for help, she would try her best to help.
A Niang thought for a moment and said, "Auntie, young lady, please get up first. Let me think about this matter. Although I am not specialized in women's diseases, I know some medical knowledge. However, the cause of childbirth is complicated, and I dare not guarantee that I can cure it."
The young aunt hurriedly said: "As long as you are willing to help, we will be very grateful. Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, we would like to try it."
A'niang nodded, asked the aunt to sit down, and began to ask carefully about her daily diet, sleeping habits and previous illnesses.
After asking, Ah Niang had some clues in her mind, so she said, "Miss, I think you have a weak body. Your hands and feet are often cold, and your menstruation is not regular."
If this happened in the 21st century, he would still be able to find out something. After all, if he went to the hospital for some special tests, he would be able to know the right medicine. But in this place, there is no way to do some corresponding tests, and he can only do it by taking the pulse.
So she could tell some general things.
Auntie's eyes lit up and she nodded hurriedly: "You are absolutely right, doctor, what should I do about my illness?"
"Don't worry about that. I will do my best to cure you. If you feel the pressure is too great, you can stay at your parents' house for a while. As for your husband, he should understand. As long as you go back and tell him that the disease can be cured and it is not a fatal disease, he will not divorce you."
This aunt actually listened to my mother. After my mother told her this, she understood that as long as the disease could be cured, she would be able to have a child of her own. Seeing how cute I was, this aunt was also envious.
After dealing with this aunt, we went to my grandparents' house.
My grandparents' house has been very lively these days because my uncle brought back a very beautiful girl, who must be someone my uncle likes very much. My grandparents are discussing whether to arrange a wedding for my uncle.
My mother also thought that if my uncle could find someone he liked, they would feel relieved.
They are planning to take me to Aunt A Yue's place in a few days.
I heard that Aunt A Yue gave birth to a little sister. When Sister Yaoyao was two years old, Aunt A Yue gave birth to a younger brother. However, that younger brother was born with congenital deficiencies and died before he was a month old.
Since then, A Yue did not give birth to another child for a year. Finally, last month, my mother heard the good news about her and immediately ran over to see her at her in-laws' house. At that time, she had already given birth to a younger sister.
The mother-in-law in their family was very nice. She didn't ask my aunt to give birth to a boy to carry on the family line.
My grandparents were very happy to see us, but also a little sad. After all, my brother has spent much more time with them than I have. But my brother has gone to the capital with my father, and we don’t know when he will come back.
Then grandma and grandpa started talking about my uncle.
"You said this girl is really that good, why don't we meet our two families earlier and settle the matter, so as not to make the night much longer. We are still worried about the previous incident."
My mother said, "We have to ask the girl and her brother for their opinions. We can't make the decision. Besides, he has already brought her back. If he didn't like her, he probably wouldn't have brought her back."
So my mother called that sister in, and we sat down together to talk about my uncle's marriage with that girl.
But as soon as the girl came in, she knelt down in front of all of us, which scared the adults.
Grandma rushed over and helped the girl up.
"Miss, what are you doing? Why are you kneeling down to us? Is there something wrong?"
"Auntie, your son and I are truly in love. I have no relatives and am an orphan. If you don't take me in, I will have nowhere to go. I met him and he saved me by chance. If he hadn't saved me, I would have been killed by that group of people."
My uncle told us the whole story.
It turned out that the uncle rescued the girl on the way back and brought her back.
But now everyone in the village thinks that my uncle has found a girl and is planning to marry her.
But if his younger brother is unwilling to marry the girl and just wants to keep her at home, it will be a big joke to outsiders. Their family cannot become a joke in this village anymore, otherwise they will not be able to stay here when rumors spread.
After hearing this, Ah Niang looked at her uncle solemnly and asked, "So what do you think of this girl? Do you really want to marry her?"
My uncle blushed and nodded slightly, "Sister, I really like her and want to spend the rest of my life with her."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and grandma smiled and said, "In that case, let's pick a good day and get your business done as soon as possible, so as to avoid any more trouble."
But my father had some concerns. He felt that he didn't know this girl very well and couldn't arrange the marriage so hastily.
If two people really like each other, they need to understand each other very clearly before they can talk about marriage. Since the whole family has sat down to have a good talk, he as a son-in-law also has a say.
So he asked the girl.
"Miss, we can't make a decision without knowing your background. Please explain your situation more clearly so that we can find someone to choose a date and finalize your marriage."
My father is a very perceptive man. He felt that the man had feelings and the woman was interested, so he spoke more tactfully.
