She had been on leave for half a year, how did she end up like this?
Doctor Li looked at her and sighed, "Master, your mother is in a very poor health. She still has a breath left. It depends on whether she is willing to wake up."
꺗I haven't become your disciple yet, so why do you call this guy 께师姑 께师姑?
But Song Jinxiu doesn't have time to care about these things now.
Song Chunsheng said, "Jinxiu, what should we do if our mother refuses to take the medicine?"
You refuse to take medicine, do you want to die?
Song Jinxiu asked in a deep voice: "What's going on?"
It turned out that after Tian Xinghua was divorced and sent back to her parents' home, her vicious stepmother sold her to Zhang Bangchui, a hunter who had fled from famine in the mountains.
Zhang Bangchui's family fled from famine and settled in Toad Village. There were only two of them, his mother and he, living in a thatched house on the mountain. They had no land and made a living by hunting.
But Zhang Bangchui was weak and could only make a living by hunting.
It took them ten years to save five taels of silver from their teeth. They bought a daughter-in-law and naturally kept a close eye on her, fearing that she would run away.
Tian Xinghua was powerless to resist and could only accept her fate and live a life of hunger and fullness with Zhang Bangchui.
But just yesterday, her stepmother from her natal side actually came to her and said that her children had done well and now had severed their relationship with the Song family, but they still had a house and land, and it was said that they even had a bullock cart.
Her stepmother asked her to go back and find the children.
Seeing the calculation in her stepmother's eyes, Tian Xinghua secretly hated her. She could live with humiliation and burden just because she was worried about the children, hoping that one day she would know the news about them.
Now I heard that the children left the old Song family and were adopted by the third master of the clan, who was the third uncle of the village head.
Several children were included in the family tree of the village head's family. The village head would protect them, and at least they would not starve to death.
Tian Xinghua's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down.
She knew her stepmother's thoughts. When she was sold, she was tied up and given to Zhang Bangchui despite her resistance.
Now that she was asked to go and meet the children, she knew exactly what their intentions were.
How could she, a divorced and remarried woman, have the nerve to go to Songjia Village again, and how could she face her children?
She hanged herself on the pretext of going into the house to change clothes.
Fortunately, her mother-in-law was worried that she would run away, so she went into the house to stop her and rescued her in time.
The person was saved. However, she was determined to commit suicide, and she was hanging on to her last breath, unconscious and refusing to wake up, with her teeth clenched and refusing to eat or drink.
When the stepmother saw that someone was dead, she cursed and left.
Zhang Bangchui was helpless and wanted to ask a doctor to save the children, but his family had no money. The villagers also asked him to take people to find the children. This was their biological mother, so he couldn't just ignore her, right?
Seeing his mother half dead, Song Chunsheng was naturally nervous and asked someone to call a doctor. It happened that Doctor Li was practicing medicine nearby, so he invited him.
At this time, Song Chunsheng's eyes were red, and he choked up and said, "Yesterday, Fuquan and I went to the village to check on the crops, and we ran into my uncle. He knew that my mother had remarried, so he said he wanted to discuss with you when to go see her, but he didn't expect..."
Song Jinxiu looked at the man named Zhang Bangchui who was squatting in the corner with his head in his hands.
This man was dressed in rags, even worse than when they left the Song family with nothing. He looked like a beggar no matter how you looked at him.
Song Jinxiu waved her hand, "Brother, take them all out. I want to talk to mother."
After everyone left, Song Jinxiu sat by the bed and said softly, "Mom, are you afraid of causing trouble for us? Don't worry, now that we are adopted, we have nothing to do with the old Song family.
Now that we have built a new house and bought some land, we can support not only our mother but also Zhang's mother. ”
The person on the bed still had his eyes closed and did not move.
Song Jinxiu continued: "Mom, don't you feel ashamed to remarry us? You are ashamed to face us? So you don't want to wake up?"
Looking at the tears flowing from the woman's eyes, Song Jinxiu sighed.
"Mom, your scumbag dad cheated on his wife and divorced her and remarried. Isn't it natural for you to get divorced and remarry? There's nothing to be ashamed of.
If you don't like this stick, we can divorce him, and you can live with us from now on. If you want to remarry, we can take our time to choose, and it won't be bad for our family to pick a good one. ”
“Cough cough cough…”
The person on the bed finally couldn't stand it anymore.
Tian Xinghua opened her eyes and said weakly, "What nonsense are you talking about? Oh! Forget it. I am worried without you watching me."
How could this kid have such an outrageous idea? Without adults to teach me, what would I become?
If she were to die like this, wouldn't the children, without adult guidance, grow up like weeds?
Song Jinxiu smiled, "Brother, Jinfang, get some food for mom."
Song Jinfang and Qiu Sheng fed Tian Xinghua.
In the east wing, Song Chunsheng and Song Jinxiu sat on stools, looking at Zhang Bangchui who was squatting on the ground feeling uneasy.
Song Chunsheng's face turned pale and he didn't want to look at the man directly.
Their mother remarried, and this man should be their stepfather.
This man was thin and delicate, with dark and rough skin, red eyes and a bad nose. He was really ugly.
Didn’t you see that everyone in the village was laughing at their mother today?
Song Jinxiu was calm. No matter what this man was like, sending her mother here was like saving her mother's life.
She glanced at the man, pointed to a stool beside her and said, "Uncle, don't be nervous, sit down and talk."
"No, I won't sit down. I'm fine like this. That's all."
Zhang Bangchui was very nervous, he didn't expect the homes of Xinghua's children to be like this. Look at this new house, it's better than the houses of the landlords in their village.
It seems that I can't keep my wife anymore.
Forget it, don't let others chase you away, you can leave on your own.
Thinking of this, he wiped his face, stood up and said, "Is your mother okay? If she is, we will leave now."
Song Chunsheng asked dissatisfiedly: "Why? You still want to take her away?"
Zhang Bangchui glanced at Song Chunsheng and asked tentatively, "Can I take her away?"
Song Chunsheng said forcefully: "Of course not."
Zhang Bangchui smiled bitterly, "I knew it. Never mind. She is also a pitiful person. Just treat her well."
Having said that, he turned around and prepared to leave. Song Chunsheng and Song Jinxiu looked at each other. At the same time, I breathed a sigh of relief.
They were really afraid that this man would insist on taking their mother away. Although they would never let their mother leave at this time, it would not look good if they made a scene, right?
Zhang Bangchui took two steps and turned back to ask, "Where is Ergou who came with me? Let's go back now."
Song Chunsheng frowned: "The man driving the ox cart? Hasn't he left?"
"Ah? Gone?"
Zhang Bangchui looked at the darkening sky.
He was traveling alone at night, returning to Toad Village. Wouldn't it take him all night?
The problem was that he was in a hurry when he came here and he didn't remember the route. How could he get back in the dark?
He hesitated, fumbled in his sleeves for a long time, and took out five copper coins.
"Can I stay here overnight? It's dark and I don't remember the way."
Looking at the five copper coins in his hand, Song Jinxiu took them and smiled.
"Uncle, please stay here first and we'll talk about it tomorrow." She motioned to her brother to take everyone downstairs to rest.
Watching her brother reluctantly taking the man away, Song Jinxiu fumbled for the copper coin in her hand.
Although this picture of the club does not look like a bad guy,
Forget it. No matter whether this Zhang Bangchui is honest or cunning, it won't be clear at once.
Let’s talk about it tomorrow. Whether this man stays or leaves is up to my mother.
I went back to the main room, fed Tian Xinghua some water soaked with bodhi leaves, and settled her down. No words were spoken that night.
