Chapter 145 I Don't Want This Child
"Sister-in-law, I don't have any money. The money is all with me." It's not that he doesn't want to give, it's that he doesn't have it.
Laizi's mother was still cursing, "You didn't go to work in the fields, and you didn't do any work at home, so how could you kill my grandson?"
Wang Laizi, who had just walked to the door, paused and felt uneasy when he heard this.
"Mom, I beg you, please give me some money first, we can take good care of Narcissus first, we can have more children in the future, we are still so young."
But no matter how Wang Dahai begged, Lai Zi's mother just cried and refused to pay.
Old Lady Wang couldn't stand it any longer and slapped her sister-in-law on the shoulder, "What on earth are you thinking? You only have one daughter-in-law. If Narcissus's illness is delayed because of you, you won't even have a granddaughter, let alone a grandson!"
Perhaps what Old Lady Wang said made sense. Laizi's mother got up from the ground and rushed into the bedroom. Soon she brought back a cloth bag with some copper coins in it.
After Yue brought the cow over, they put some straw in the car before getting in, and planned to go to the clinic in town.
It was already getting late, and Wang Dahai had already prepared himself for not being able to come back.
"Dad, you should stay home. Nothing will happen with me here."
"Okay, it's more important to cure him first. You've been steady since childhood, and I feel at ease with you around."
Except for Wang Laizi and Laizi's father, everyone else went.
As soon as they left, the news spread throughout the village.
It turned out that it was not Wang Laizi who killed someone, but Huang Shuixian who had a miscarriage.
Isn't this a good thing?!
Boss Zhou was chiseling a stone. It was so big that no one knew how long it would take him to chisel through it.
Zhou Laoer led the little donkey and pulled the donkey cart back and forth on it, which seemed to have some effect.
After we replace the stone flakes tomorrow, threshing will be faster.
The people in Old Zhou's family rarely went out, so they didn't know about the daffodils. They were busy picking vegetables and cooking at home.
I made a dish with the mushrooms I picked, and stir-fried loofah, long beans, and eggplant.
Seeing that the pumpkins were growing well, Zhou Mingshu pinched a handful of pumpkin tips, peeled them, blanched them in water, and stir-fried them with garlic slices. The taste was pretty good.
The family sat together and had a happy meal. Old Mrs. Yang came over with a large palm-leaf fan and told them about the daffodils.
When Boss Zhou heard this, he felt that the world was really unpredictable. In the afternoon, he was talking and laughing by the river about wanting to borrow his family's donkey cart, but he didn't expect this to happen when he returned home.
Old Mrs. Zhou and Old Mrs. Yang agreed on a date and planned to go and take a look together with eggs in the next two days.
"How come the child is gone when he was fine and didn't do any heavy work?"
The incident with Huang Shuixian happened suddenly. Old Mrs. Zhou took a look at her daughter-in-law and decided not to let her do any work in the future. The important thing was to focus on taking good care of the pregnancy.
Zhou Mingshu didn’t know what happened to cause Huang Shuixian to lose her child, but he still felt a little sorry about the miscarriage. A little life was gone just like that.
The current medical environment is still a bit poor, and the weather is so hot. With the psychological and physical trauma, Huang Shuixian is going to suffer a lot.
Huang Shuixian, who was lying on the hospital bed, didn't think so, because the baby in her belly might not be her husband Wang Dahai's, but might be Wang Laizi's.
So, she doesn't want this child!
Now, she was kicked to death by her father. Although it was a bit painful, it fulfilled her wish.
Fortunately, Baicaotang was open today. After Doctor Chen and Madam Xu rescued Huang Shuixian, they prescribed some medicine for her to regulate her body.
It cost more than one or two taels of silver in total.
This extra two taels of silver made Lai Zi's mother very sad. She had traveled such a long distance, but not only did she not save the child, she also spent so much silver. She squatted aside and cried in pain.
Coming here and not being able to help at all, but only causing more trouble! Old Mrs. Wang stamped her feet in anger.
It's really unlucky for such a good child like Dahai to have such parents!
Old Mrs. Wang sighed and asked her niece-in-law for a bowl of water. "Narcissus, you have to be more open-minded. Although the child is gone, you and Dahai are still young and you will have more in the future. Fortunately, the pregnancy is relatively young and your body is not hurt. You will be fine after some recuperation. Let Dahai buy you an old hen and make some chicken soup."
Huang Shuixian's body was still weak. She lay on the bed and nodded slightly to indicate that she understood.
Although she didn't want this child, her heart still ached the moment the child left, and the tears in her eyes couldn't stop flowing.
Wang Dahai, such a big and strong man, also had tears in his eyes when he held his wife's hand.
Mr. Chen knew that they came from Lianglin Village and that the journey was long. It was already so late and it was impractical to go back, so he let them rest in the front hall and leave early tomorrow morning.
Wang Dahai thanked Dr. Chen so much that he almost knelt down and kowtowed. A penny can make a hero fall. Dr. Chen not only gave them credit, but also let them live in his shop. He was really a good man.
"You don't have to be so polite. I have a relative in your Lianglin Village. Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to buy on credit so easily."
At this point the two families started chatting, and it turned out that Doctor Chen's relative was Mrs. Zhou's family.
Madam Xu prepared a basin of mugwort for them and some cakes to fill their stomachs. Except for Lai Zi's wife, everyone else present was easy to get along with, so she didn't mind these things.
They are all women, so why should women make things difficult for other women? The other party is a mother who just lost a child. They have all been mothers and know the pain of losing a child, so Madam Xu takes good care of them.
Boss Zhou kept chiseling the stone in front of him. A concave shape appeared on the surface of the stone. He turned the stone over and continued chiseling on the opposite side.
"Brother, take a rest, I'll take your place."
Zhou Laosan came over shirtless to help. Zhou Laoda gave him the tools and sat aside to eat watermelon.
After being tired for a few days, Zhou Mingshu finally took out half an hour to review the knowledge they had learned before.
"Saya, you have memorized these words very well, so you can teach you a few new ones." Zhou Mingqin suggested.
"Okay, we're quite busy these days, so we'll learn less." In response to the requests of many students, Zhou Mingshu taught some new characters.
Just when they were about to wash up and rest, Wang Xiaodan came over with her cousin.
Zhou Mingqi still had some impression of this new girl, "Shanshan, come over and play!"
When Mrs. Zhou saw the children coming over to play, she cut another watermelon. Everyone gathered together to eat the watermelon and talk about some interesting things in the fields.
