Chapter 18: Dalang, drink the medicine
Chapter 18 Dalang, drink medicine
After seeing off the two old guys and Li Zheng, Chu Nanzhi went back to the kitchen to clean up the dishes and then cleaned the house.
Today's meal made up all the meat and vegetables she bought.
Looks like I have to buy some more tomorrow.
She remembered that Lin Jinxiao also raised some chickens and ducks in the yard before, but they were all sold or killed by the original owner.
Now there is not even a hair left.
After Lin Jinxiao lost his job in the county government, he planned to grow some rice, fruits and vegetables last year, but when they were still seedlings, the original owner pulled them out.
The original owner felt that it was okay for him to be a scholar who didn't seek to make progress, and he was willing to degenerate and farm the land, and volunteered to take the land that Liu Yun married as a dowry to her son-in-law Liu Shuyang to fill his gambling debts.
Anyway, whatever Lin Jinxiao did, the original owner would destroy it. In the end, Lin Jinxiao was desperate and didn't try anything anymore.
Looking at the empty yard, Chu Nanzhi herself was in despair.
This is really just waiting to die.
If it weren't for Liu Yun's help, the family would have starved to death long ago.
But in the future, she will never let Liu Yun worry about this family again.
Right now, the first thing she has to do is to quickly recover Lin Jinxiao's leg injury.
Thinking of this, she took out all the medicines she bought.
Being sick these days is no different from her time, just watching the money flowing out of her hand.
Bought a bunch of food for less than a hundred yuan, but this pile of medicine cost her more than five taels of silver, which is outrageously expensive.
Finding a pot for decocting medicine, she poured the medicine for internal injuries into the pot, mixed some water, added enough firewood to fry the medicine first.
Walking back into the living room, the four little guys had already gone to play outside the yard, while Lin Jinxiao went to rest in the back room.
After tossing for most of the day, she was also a little sleepy.
Lie on the table and took a nap, and was awakened by a strong smell of medicine after a while.
She ran into the kitchen and quickly turned off the fire, fetched a bowl and poured a bowl of medicinal soup, and waited for it to cool a little before she prepared to give it to Lin Jinxiao.
As soon as he walked out of the kitchen, he saw Lin Jinxiao leaning on a cane staring at her: "What do you want to do?"
Chu Nanzhi saw that his face was a little bad, thinking that he was embarrassed in front of his teacher today, and he was sulking, so he put on a friendly and gentle gesture to curry favor:
"Today I got a new medicine for you. It has just been boiled. You should drink it while it's hot."
As he spoke, he walked up to him with a medicine bowl, and said with a smile, "Come on, Dalang, drink the medicine."
After all, Future Heli still needs his permission.
She can't let this guy regenerate resentment.
Unexpectedly, Lin Jinxiao's pretty face immediately darkened, and his velvety eyebrows immediately frowned:
"What are you doing, I... I don't drink."
It was the first time in more than five years of marriage that I saw her so attentive.
Li Ce made the medicine for him a few days ago, and the woman drove him to the back room after returning with some money, and never asked him.
The decoction has been stopped for two days, she has been pretending not to see, how could she be so kind today.
The children are not in sight at the moment.
He was a little frightened, leaning on crutches and clumsily backed away.
"What's the matter with you, I'll let you drink medicine, what are you hiding, it should be cold in a while."
Chu Nanzhi was very puzzled, and approached him with the medicine in hand.
"Go away, don't come near me."
Lin Jinxiao's face turned livid with fright.
It's no wonder that she has been so abnormal these past few days. I'm afraid she is waiting for an opportunity like today.
This vile woman must have felt that she had not listened to her before, held a grudge, and even despaired of life, so she dealt with Taoist Ximen first, and now she wanted to kill herself with her own hands.
When he was working in the county government office, he heard that a vicious woman hated her husband, so she pretended to please her husband, dissuaded her husband's defenses, and finally killed her husband with medicine, and then committed suicide and died with her husband.
He must not let this wicked woman succeed in her tricks.
At this time, the four little guys also returned to the house tired from playing. Seeing the situation in the house, they immediately ran to Lin Jinxiao in fright, and shouted at Chu Nanzhi together:
"You are not allowed to harm my father."
Sibao was so frightened that he burst into tears: "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
It was only then that Chu Nanzhi suddenly realized: it turned out that the family was worried that they were poisoned in the medicine.
She was so angry that she almost vomited blood:
I am really more wronged than Dou E.
She took a big gulp first angrily, and said loudly, "No poison."
Then he hurriedly put the bowl on the wooden table in the living room, and went straight back to his hut.
Outside the door, Dabao Lin Ruiwen picked up the bowl of medicine again and handed it to Lin Jinxiao: "Father, the bad girl drank it herself, she must not be poisoned, drink it quickly."
Si Bao wiped away his tears, pouted and said, "Father, have we wronged her?"
Lin Jinxiao drank the medicine slowly, with an unbelievable expression on his face:
What the **** does she want to do?
In the room, Chu Nanzhi lay on the bed a little sullen, she felt that the whole family had persecution paranoia.
But thinking about He Li, she gritted her teeth and still had to endure it.
She believes that "the sea is wide and the fish leap, the sky is high and the birds fly", and the free days of blooming flowers all the way will come soon.
After resting on the bed for an hour, she wasn't too hungry, but thinking that the little ones were growing up, she still got up and went to the kitchen to warm up the chicken soup for lunch and bring it to the dining table in the living room.
Afterwards, he took the bowls and chopsticks and prepared to call Lin Jinxiao and the four little guys in the back room to eat.
Unexpectedly, when Dabao Lin Ruiwen came out and saw a pot of chicken soup on the table, he immediately became dissatisfied, and said angrily: "I want to eat stir-fried vegetables."
"Fry it yourself."
Chu Nanzhi saw that the little brat was very arrogant and unreasonable, so she got angry at the same time, knocked the bowl on the table, and sat down angrily.
When the little guys saw this, they were so frightened that they burst into tears immediately.
Dabao cried "bad woman" while crying.
Lin Jinxiao had a sullen face, but he just stood there and didn't try to stop him.
Chu Nanzhi moved up angrily, glared at him and cursed:
"Lin Dalang, do you feel how much I owe your family? Yes, I admit that I have been a little messy in the past, but is it all my fault? Do you want to be a clean stream like your two teachers? I didn't Opinion, but I am just a woman, is it wrong for me to want to live a better life?"
Just as soon as the words came out of her mouth, she felt that these words were not what she wanted to say in her heart.
It seems that the resentment of the original owner is really serious.
Lin Jinxiao also felt wronged by what she said.
Indeed, in the past, he only cared about his own thoughts, not her feelings.
It's just that the way she vents is too inappropriate.
This is also the root cause of their relationship as husband and wife.
Chu Nanzhi said again: "I don't care if you let the children treat me like this. I deserve it. Are you going to teach the children to go out and deal with people like this in the future?"
Lin Jinxiao froze on the spot.
I didn't have time to take care of these before, but now I think the upbringing of the little guys is sometimes really out of place.
He pulled Dabao to him, and educated him earnestly: "Lin Ruiwen, don't do this in the future."
Then he glanced at the other little guys: "Don't cry anymore, eat well."
The four little guys wiped their tears, you looked at me, I looked at you, and looked at each other. Finally, they stopped sobbing, obediently picked up the bowls and chopsticks and drank the chicken soup.
Waiting for the meal to finish, Chu Nanzhi thought about Sibao's arm injury, so she took some medicine for the trauma, but Sibao didn't resist her so much, and when she heard that she was going to rub the medicine on herself, she obediently relied on it. The bad woman smeared the medicine on her arm.
When Dabao and Erbao saw that the bad woman only applied medicine to Sibao, they felt jealous, but they didn't dare to say it in front of the bad woman. After waiting for the bad woman to return to the house, they secretly took the medicine and went to the back room to ask Lin Jinxiao to give it to them. smear.
