Xu Er Nainai Extra
She married Xu Er, and everyone called her Xu Ersao.
She and Xu Er had no children, but they did something extremely unscrupulous - trafficking children.
She just wanted to raise the child she held in her arms for the last time. When she returned home, she personally named the child "Xu Kewei". Xu Er was becoming more and more unreliable, and she just wanted to teach her Weiwei well, so that she would have someone to rely on now and someone to depend on in the future.
later……
Later, Xu Er died, his child was sent away, and Xu Da's son got married, and everyone started calling her Xu Er Niang.
When Xu Erniang was alive, everyone said she was crazy.
When she was a girl in her parents' home, she was such a pure and lively girl. How could she become a crazy woman?
"Weiwei... Men are afraid of choosing the wrong profession, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. We would rather not marry than marry someone else..."
In the middle of the night, Xu Erniang lay on the bed, hugging the pillow and stroking it gently, as if there was a sleeping baby there. Then, she sang a song: "My eldest sister wears a golden hairpin, my second sister wears a silver bracelet, but my third sister has nothing to wear. She wears a bean sprout on her ear all year round..."
Xu Erniang has always had a good voice.
This village is called Xiaohe Village, as the name suggests, because there is a river. There are many rivers here, and in the early years, people had to take a small boat to travel. When Xu Erniang was a girl, she often rowed a boat across the river, singing while rowing, and she was a famous beauty in several neighboring villages.
When she got old, she could only remember the songs from her youth, so she sang them day and night, and cried day and night...
Everyone in the yard was afraid of her, and when they heard her singing, they covered their children's ears. Then her madness spread far and wide, and everyone knew that she was mentally ill.
She was crazy, she wasn't sure what had happened to her. Her children were gone, her husband was gone, and even her house was taken over by someone else. She lived alone in a small nest, and mice bit her feet at night.
She carried a bamboo basket and wandered around the town, using money to buy rice and vegetables. People felt sorry for her and gave her two sweet potatoes for free.
She smiled and said thank you and put the money away.
The money should be saved as a dowry for Weiwei.
She had dreamed for many years, but Weiwei never came back. She had to accept the fact that she would not come back.
She was very diligent that year. She went to the fields to pick up wheat ears and corn, and continued digging in the peanut field where she had already dug up some, digging out several pounds of leftover peanuts.
In midsummer, she would fill a basket with dried wheat, corn, and washed peanuts, and paddle a small bamboo raft to the next village.
There lived a miracle doctor named Liu, who was a very kind person. He treated her several times without charging her any money. She knew he was a good man and could be trusted.
Walking into Liu's house, she saw a pretty little girl standing in the main room practicing calligraphy. Xu Erniang's eyes moistened. If Weiwei was with her, she would definitely be prettier than this girl.
The little girl looked up and was startled to see her.
She waved her hands hurriedly and said anxiously: "I'm here to find your grandfather. I'm not a bad person..." She knew that everyone said she was crazy, and when she walked on the road, children picked up stones to throw at her.
"Oh." The little girl nodded, "Grandpa is taking a nap."
"Then...then I'll wait for him outside." Xu Er Niang said and turned around.
"It's hot outside." The little girl put down her brush, turned around and moved a stool to her. "Sit here. My grandma made sour plum soup. I'll bring you a bowl."
Xu Erniang looked at her and sat down in a daze.
After a while, the little girl brought sour plum soup. Xu Erniang took it with trembling hands and grabbed two handfuls of peanuts from the basket and gave it to her: "You are Miaomiao, right? Come and have some peanuts!"
"Thank you." The little girl put the peanuts aside, sat beside them, peeled and ate them, and answered her previous question crisply, "I'm Miaomiao, and I live behind your house! In our family, the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, I rank third!"
Xu Erniang nodded and just looked at her. Miaomiao ate peanuts for a while, but felt uncomfortable being stared at by her, so she simply went back to writing calligraphy.
The main room became quiet.
After a while, a kind voice came from inside: "Miaomiao, have you finished writing?"
"I've finished writing!" Miaomiao said unhappily, "I wrote two more articles. Can you write less tomorrow?"
"Stop writing!" Miaomiao's grandfather, an old Chinese doctor known as "Dr. Liu," came out of the house and patted her on the head with a palm-leaf fan, "I told you to go to sleep but you didn't."
Miaomiao stuck out her tongue: "Sleeping is such a waste of time, I might as well go find some cicada shells! Grandpa, I've finished writing, can I go find some cicada shells?" Cicada shells can be used as medicine, she was good friends with grandpa, she wanted to find some and sell them to him for money to get popsicles!
"Go, go..." Divine Doctor Liu said helplessly. After she ran away, he looked at Xu Erniang, "Xu Erniang, what are you doing? It's noon now, be careful not to faint from the heat."
Xu Erniang stood up, handed him the basket, and said awkwardly: "Here...here..."
Doctor Liu took it, lifted the cloth and took a look at it, then looked at the uneaten peanuts on the table and said, "The medicine is all dug from the mountain, it's not worth much, keep it for yourself."
Xu Erniang shook her head: "I have something to ask of you, you must help me."
"Go ahead."
"Don't tell anyone!" Xu Erniang said, clasping her hands together and begging, "Please... don't tell anyone else. When I leave, just pretend I've never been here..."
Doctor Liu was puzzled. What on earth was this doing?
Doctor Liu invited Xu Erniang to sit down in the pharmacy. Xu Erniang took out a silver chain from her bosom and whispered, "You...you can help me write a few words. I can't read. Can you help me..."
Doctor Liu nodded, took out a piece of paper he usually used to write prescriptions, and dipped the brush in ink: "What do you want to write?"
Xu Erniang was very happy to know that he agreed. After a pause, she burst into tears again: "Weiwei in our family has a miserable life. I am afraid that someone will look for her in the future, or she will come back to find me. I am afraid that when she comes back, I will no longer be here. She is not my child, so I must leave a letter for her so that she can find her own mother..."
She repeated the date and address where she found Xu Kewei three times, and also reminded her of other important points.
After finishing writing, she looked at the paper handed to her by Doctor Liu: "Is that all? Have you written enough?" There seemed to be so few words, so she had to make sure she didn't miss anything.
"Don't worry." Doctor Liu nodded, turned around and searched around the house for a while, found a small purse that his wife had sewn, took the paper from her hand, blew the ink dry, folded it and put it in, then put the chain on her hand in, then tightened the purse and handed it to her: "That's it. Hide it yourself and don't lose it. When your daughter comes back, you can give it to her."
"Okay..." Xu Erniang said excitedly and moved, "Thank you! Thank you..." and then she left happily.
