Brother Shi lit the oil lamp, looked at the pale little brother, and asked him, "Brother Zhu, tell me the truth, who does this child belong to?"
The moon outside was covered by clouds, and only a little bit of cold light could be faintly revealed. Brother Zhu leaned against the bed, looked out the window, and refused to make a sound.
"Brother Zhu!" Brother Shi turned around anxiously, but Brother Zhu refused to tell him.
Brother Zhu came to Wangjia Village the year before last. He had no father and no mother. When he was 17, he married an old bachelor who was ten years older than him in the village. , but the old bachelor had a sudden illness and passed away after only three months.
Brother Zhu couldn't stay in the original village any longer. With the only money left in the family, he asked for his household registration from the village head, and went to Wangjia Village to settle down. He bought a thatched hut, and that was it. live down.
The fact that Wangjia Village is willing to take in widows and widows has spread around Huolu Town. Many widows and widows who were pointed out in the original village will find a way to live in Wangjia Village.
In order to avoid disputes, the widows all live at the end of the village, and they don't have too much contact with the people in the village, but occasionally there are widows and widows who marry men in the village.
This is something that can’t be helped. Although Wangjia Village is not remote, there are always more boys than brothers and girls in the village. Huanghua picks and chooses the gift money like a big girl.
Many men with poor family conditions are willing to marry a widow to go home. Firstly, they have a daughter-in-law, and secondly, they save a lot of gift money. What a wonderful thing.Especially for a widow or widow without children like Brother Zhu, it is easy to remarry.
Zhao’s law also encourages widows to remarry and to have more children, so when all the men in Wangjia Village marry wives and live a life of hot kang, the surrounding villages also understand the benefits of taking in widows, but the trend is not a day or two can change.
Brother Shi looked at the tears that Brother Zhu kept streaming down, and probably understood something, and wiped away his tears with distress, "Brother Zhu, since you don't want to talk about the father of the child, then I won't ask, but you Have you figured out what to do with the child?"
Brother Zhu's eyes were empty. He was a widow. If anyone, let alone a villager, would eat him up if anyone found out that he was pregnant, his reputation would be ruined, and all widows would be implicated.
Brother Shi originally thought that since Brother Zhu had a child, he would marry the child's father to save himself a hard life. Although Wangjia Village does not discriminate against widows, it will not raise them for nothing. You have to find a way to support yourself.
"Brother Shi, I want to live..." Brother Zhu rubbed his stomach, this child cannot be kept, even if he could, he would kill that bastard man.
Brother Shi let go, Brother Zhu's tears flowed again, he stared at Brother Zhu's stomach, "Think about it, it's not easy for Brother Zhu to get pregnant, maybe this child is gone, and you won't have a child in the future gone."
Why doesn't Brother Zhu know?
But compared to the child, he wants to live more. A child who is not as good as a pig or a dog will be gone if it is gone!
He clenched his teeth tightly, and the upper and lower teeth rubbed against each other to make a headache. It took him a long time to break free from his hatred for that man, and begged Shi Geer, "Shi Geer, you are a good man, Please help me, I want to live."
"I want to live cleanly..." Brother Zhu whispered.
Brother Shi was originally a warm-hearted person, and he was also a widow, so he had a kind of sympathetic protective mentality towards widows. He thought for a while, "How about this, Brother Zhu, tomorrow I will pretend to be a man, I will take you to the medical clinic in the town, and then try to find a way to slip the tire, and if someone asks you when you come back, I will tell you to accompany me to see the doctor."
Brother Zhu had no other choice but to firmly remember what Brother Shi said. Half the village knew about Brother Shi’s family forcing him to have a child, and no one would doubt it, “Thank you , Brother Shi."
"What's the matter, we all came through hard times, we should help each other." Brother Shi looked at the sky outside, "I won, I'm going back, I have to go to Gu's house tomorrow morning to invite another Fake."
He invited him for a long time this morning, and he has to invite him tomorrow, but there is no way, human life is at stake, so he must hurry up, before others find out.
"Well, don't worry, I won't be stupid, go back and rest." Brother Zhu sent Brother Shi away, and turned back to his thatched hut.
But it was destined to be a restless night, and Brother Zhu's ordeal was far from over.
"Bang bang bang" knocking on the door woke up the sleepy Zhu Geer. He lay down for a long time without opening the door. Shi Geer had already gone back. Who would knock on the door in the middle of the night?
It could only be that bastard, but he should be locked up in the Wang Family Ancestral Hall?
"Brother Zhu, open the door quickly!" Wang Ergou's voice reminded Brother Zhu that he had guessed correctly.
Brother Zhu was lying down, staring at a certain point on the beam, holding his hands tightly, it was him!It's him!Here he is again!
"Bitch, open the door!"
For a moment, Zhu Geer saw a vast expanse of whiteness in front of him, he seemed to be possessed by a demon, he got out of bed stiffly and opened the door, Wang Ergou's clothes were all torn, he came in with a disheveled face, and slapped Zhu Geer Face, "Why did it take so long to open the door?!"
He finally crawled out of the ditch and dared not go home. If someone found him running out of the ancestral hall, he would definitely go to his house to arrest him, so he came to Brother Zhu.
In fact, he doesn't like the little brother, he prefers a woman with a delicate body and a soft body, but who makes Zhuge unlucky, he lives on the far side, and the neighbors are all elderly, good-looking old men, so he is called Wang Ergou stared at it.
He took advantage of Brother Zhu's body when he was alone, and took away his personal belongings, threatening that if Brother Zhu was disobedient, he would tell the villagers that he seduced a man, and then he would be thrown into the pond.
Brother Zhu is quite violent, and he doesn't want to be threatened by Wang Ergou, but he doesn't dare to tell others that he has been possessed by Wang Ergou, so he can only find ways to avoid Wang Ergou, and Wang Ergou doesn't often come to him. Every time he came, it was midnight, and Wang Ergou had done all of them by drilling windows and breaking doors.
Every time Brother Zhu would be beaten half to death by him before he could succeed. At first Wang Ergou didn't dare to slap his face, but later he beat him all the time. Brother Zhu was afraid of being known, so he resisted less often later on. When I was bitten by a dog.
If you want to say that the person who hates Wang Ergou the most in this world must be Brother Zhu.
Wang Ergou lay on the bed, "Go get me something to eat, I'm starving to death. Damn it, Gu Beizhi, don't let me catch you..."
Brother Zhu went to the kitchen without saying a word, and took out the few rice at home. This was given to him by Brother Shi, just two handfuls. He boiled them all, and even put an egg in it.
Finally, I fried the only two potatoes left at home and brought them into the house, "The meal is ready."
Wang Ergou took a look. The rice porridge with boiled eggs was so thick that chopsticks could be inserted into it, and the potatoes were fried crispy and raw, not too cooked. This taste is what Wang Ergou usually likes to eat.
"Where did it come from?" Wang Ergou was so hungry that he didn't give Brother Zhu a bite, and ate it by himself.
Brother Zhu watched him finish the potatoes and egg porridge one by one, "Brother Shi gave it to me, seeing that I've been sick recently, help me."
In fact, it was because he was pregnant. In order to nourish him, he brought two handfuls of rice and a few eggs. The potatoes were found by himself, and it took a long time for them to sprout.
He originally planned to give the sprouted potatoes to Wang Ergou, because this dog had been biting him for too long, and he couldn't hold on any longer. If he didn't do anything else, Brother Zhu felt that he would go crazy.
After eating and drinking, Wang Ergou rubbed his belly, looked at Brother Zhu with obscene eyes, "Take off your clothes."
Brother Zhu originally wanted to hold back, the two potatoes had sprouted and were still green, and they were poisonous, as long as he held back for a while, Wang Ergou would definitely die, but he didn't want to hold back.
He approached Wang Ergou, while pretending to untie his clothes, while Wang Ergou was looking at him, he picked up a bowl and slammed it on Wang Ergou's forehead.
Wang Ergou was caught off guard for a moment, and was hit, "Ah—bitch, I'll kill you!"
The two started to fight, and Brother Zhu fought Wang Ergou with the determination to die, and he didn't lose the wind for a while. Their movements were so loud that they woke up the neighbors.
The neighbor leaned on the wall to look this way, and could only hear the sound of tables and chairs being overturned in the house. He was so frightened that he thought he had recruited a thief, so he immediately called for someone.
They lived far away, and all the widows around were shouting. When they broke open the door, Wang Ergou had already knocked Brother Zhu unconscious, his head was bleeding, it was terrifying enough.
Seeing this, one of the old men rushed to Brother Shi's house, Wang Ergou was going to kill someone!The others held back their timidity and copied various weapons to attack Wang Ergou.
Wang Ergou was quite scared at first, but then he saw that there was nothing to be afraid of with just these three little brothers. He licked his lips, maybe he could have a few more today to enjoy it.
Seeing his appearance, the three of them were already so frightened that their legs went limp, and they tried their best to fight him, but they only persisted for a while.
When Brother Shi came, the three younger brothers squatted together in panic, one of them had a tear in his clothes, and Wang Ergou lay on the ground twitching and foaming.
"What's the matter?"
Brother Shi and the panting old man behind him helped the three brothers up, the three brothers were still terrified, one of them pointed into the room, "Brother Shi, go and see Xiao Zhu, he was killed Wang Ergou broke his head and bled a lot."
Brother Shi quickly ran in to take a look. Brother Zhu not only had blood on his head, but also his lower body. "Brother Zhu? Brother Zhu, wake up?"
The other four people heard his voice and hurried in. Everyone was not Yunying's unmarried brother, and they all understood what was going on. The old man was anxious, "Brother Shi, put Xiaozhu on the bed quickly, and go to the doctor!"
Brother Shi was about to go, but Brother Zhu caught him, "Don't go..."
"No, I have to see a doctor, otherwise you will die!" Brother Shi shook off his hand, turned around and ran out.
The old man ordered the other three people to grab the ashes, boil hot water, clean the wound and stop the bleeding for brother Zhu.
Brother Zhu didn't care about himself at this time, he turned his head and looked outside the door, "Is that bastard dead?"
All four of them could hear his hatred, and looking at his current appearance, there was something they didn't understand, they couldn't help but their eyes were red, this world is so cruel to their little brother.
Zhu Geer is such a strong person, and now he is being persecuted like this, the brother who wiped his blood held his hand, "Zhu Geer, Wang Ergou has his own fate, but you can't use your life to kill him!" To change his dog's life, you have to live, you know?"
I don't know if his words had an effect, Brother Zhu stopped bleeding soon, everyone breathed a sigh of relief seeing the bleeding stopped, the old man thought of Wang Ergou outside, and knew that he couldn't just let it go, After a while the doctor came, but he couldn't tell when he saw Wang Ergou.
He went out quietly by himself, intending to drag Wang Ergou away by himself and throw it anywhere, but definitely not in Brother Zhu's yard.
His strength alone was limited, so it was very difficult to drag Wang Ergou. Two younger brothers came out to help. They discussed dragging Wang Ergou to the grass at the foot of Bijia Mountain next to the village.
On the way back, the three of them were very silent. When they were about to reach Brother Zhu’s house, the old man said, “You all go back, just pretend nothing happened today, and I’ll tell Brother Shi later, I’m the only one tonight here."
"Uncle..." The other two disapproved, the old man took their hands and patted them, "Children, you are still young, and you have a long life to come, so you can't delay it because of a dog. Listen to me." , just pretend it’s nothing, even if you want to remember, remember, you saved Brother Zhu’s life!”
After the old man finished speaking, he returned to Brother Zhu's house. He asked another brother to go back with the two of them. He stayed here with Brother Zhu. Before leaving, he said to the three of them, "Remember, what happened tonight , don’t tell anyone, you are saving Brother Zhu’s life.”
All three of them responded, "Remember, Uncle."
The author has something to say: Don’t eat potatoes when they sprout. This should be common sense, so let me remind you.
Everyone remember to collect my new pit

Thanks to the little angels who irrigate the nutrient solution: 2 bottles of underwater moon; 1 bottle of water-sick fish;
Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
