Chapter 72 Helpless
Maybe it's because of mother-in-law Mrs. Su's bad words, maybe because sister-in-law Zhang's people are different from others, or maybe it's because I finally understand that I am a member of this family in this environment, this region, and this era.

Regarding this fetus, which is likely to be a boy, Jinyue showed unprecedented caution, for fear of any mistakes.

Jinyue was originally weak and prone to catch a cold when the weather was cold, and this time was no exception.

When another cold snap in the first month swept across, Jinyue was caught again without exception, first sneezing and runny nose, and then coughing non-stop.

It was nothing at first, and I have come here like this in previous years, but this year because of the fetus in my stomach, Jinyue refused to take medicine.

Every time in the middle of the night, Jinyue coughed and couldn't breathe, Su Laoer really felt distressed, and said several times to get her some medicine, but Jinyue resolutely refused.

"The baby is still so young, the medicine will hurt him."

"No way, I used to take medicine as usual when I saw my mother was pregnant."

Jinyue really wanted to say that the older generation didn't understand, but after thinking about it, she forgot.

"It doesn't hurt to be cautious anyway."

Jinyue coughed again, Su Laoer sighed, and could only pat Jinyue's back over and over again.

Although tortured by coughing every day, Jinyue's heart is happy.

Seeing that it is the end of the new year and the first year after the separation, although the new yard has not been repaired yet, this is the first real reunion of their family. , and planned to buy a new set of clothes for the Chinese New Year for Shen'er.

This year's harvest is not bad. Apart from the public grain handed in and the share given to the parents-in-law, there are still three bags of grain left, plus some corn, potatoes, radishes, and cabbage. It is enough to solve the problem of food and clothing, and it is much better than before. up.

Just when Jinyue was planning how to buy new year's goods, Papa Su spoke.

He said that although the family is separated, the whole family should still be reunited during special times like the Chinese New Year to worship ancestors, so he asked each family to hand over 20 yuan to buy New Year's goods and other miscellaneous things such as paper money, incense watches, etc. thing.

Jinyue was actually a little dissatisfied in her heart, she couldn't stand Granny Su's cynicism, so she said that she was pregnant this time, although Su's second child had revealed last time that Jinyue was pregnant with a boy this time, but Granny Su still sneered look.

It is said that even the gods are misjudged, and that there is no such a big morning sickness reaction when pregnant with a son, and only when pregnant with a daughter is the body heavy. No one has more experience in this matter than her.

Jinyue almost died of anger.

She secretly swore in her heart that when she moved to the new yard, she would never set foot in this place again.

Originally, he wanted to spend his own year quietly, but Master Su decided to make such a proposal. It was like a prank, trying to twist some awkward people together.

But as a junior, even though it was uncomfortable, he could only pretend to accept it happily.

After an awkward year like this, Jinyue's cough gradually improved.Her greatest happiness every day is to touch the fetus in her belly and feel life, although she can't see or feel anything at this time.

As she imagined her future life, the happy life of their family of five, the corners of her mouth would turn up unconsciously.

Because of the boy in Jinyue's womb, Su's second child also has greater motivation.

He seems to have endless energy and endless energy.Every day at four or five o'clock in the morning, he got up, first went to fetch water, then went to the field to sweep leaves and weeds, and after returning, he had some breakfast and went out to work non-stop.

These days, there are four or five families building houses. When they saw the beautiful windows made by Su Lao Er, the carpenters stopped inviting them, and they all wanted to cooperate with Su Lao Er.

After they hit it off, the one who laid the foundation laid the foundation, the one who leveled the soil, and the one who built the wall, and Su Laoer freed his hands to concentrate on woodwork.

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is an important watershed in the eyes of farmers. After the fifteenth day, it indicates that the year is over, and the farmers will start to work hard for this year's harvest, so this day is not colder than New Year's Eve, on the contrary, it is still very lively.

Drums were played, dance lions were danced, firecrackers and fireworks shot into the sky, and the whole village was enveloped in the blooming fireworks, presenting a festive and peaceful scene.

The night was not too deep, and the night was beautiful. After coaxing Su Wei to sleep, Jinyue stood on the steps in front of the house, watching the fireworks explode into pieces in the sky before falling, praying for a safe birth of the child.

Su Laoer pulled Jinyue and said to go outside to watch the lion dance, but Jinyue didn't want to go, Su Laoer comforted and said that the family planning team hadn't gone to work yet, don't be afraid, he saw several women in the village were also watching outside What about Yangko?

In the end, Jinyue still couldn't resist this kind of temptation, but the thing happened because of this "no resistance".

Just when Jinyue was pulling Su Shen and pointing at the lion with Su Lao Er and laughing happily, a palm appeared on his shoulder.

Jinyue trembled, and when she turned her head, she saw that nightmarish face, with the brim of her hat drooping and a mask on, with no expression except her eyes.

The man said softly behind her head, "Let's go."

Jinyue's legs were weak, and it seemed that there was a weight of several hundred catties tied to her legs, but she couldn't lift them when she wanted to.

She wanted to shout, but it seemed that she was controlled by an invisible force, and she couldn't make a sound from her throat.Su Laoer was pointing to the lying lion and telling Jinyue, but he couldn't get any response from Jinyue. When he looked back, he saw Jinyue's pale face and blue lips.

"what happened to you?"

The voice was covered in fireworks and firecrackers, and it became a silent lip talk.

Jinyue didn't know how she walked home, but in this lively scene, she seemed to be blind and deaf all of a sudden.

Nightmare followed.

"Don't waste time, let's go, soon."

In the room, Su Wei was still sleeping, and Su Shen stood by the table and looked at the man in horror.

Jinyue fell to her knees with a plop. In her memory, she had never kneeled before except to worship her ancestors.

But today, for the sake of the fetus in her womb, she bent her knee so easily to a stranger who was about her own age, everything seemed very natural.

"You, what are you doing, get up, aren't you giving me a problem?"

The man was a little flustered and annoyed. He waved his hand and rejected the cigarette that Su Lao Er handed over.

"You, look, I'm pregnant in this belly now." Second Su stammered, pulling Jinyue to get up.

"There is no way, the truth has been said many times."

"I know, I know, but this doll is two or three months old, it's a life."

"Stop talking about that."

"But……"

"Stop talking about it, it's not easy in this cold weather, just take it as your support for my work." The man hugged his hands impatiently and interrupted Su's second child.

Second Su started to rummage through the box. He found a torn plastic wallet that had peeled off and had a crack on the edge. He took out all the money in it, handed it over and said, "Let's go, let us go."

"What are you doing, put it away, put it away, what do you think of me. It's not that I don't show affection, there is really nothing I can do about it."

Second Su still stuffed a handful of money, large and small, into the man's coat pocket.

"Don't be like this, if everyone is like you, then how can we carry out our work. However," the man pushed up the brim of his hat, gestured, and whispered, "Do you understand?"

Su Laoer was overjoyed, bowed his head and thanked him.

"Thank you, thank you, then this doll..."

"What should be done now is still to be done. If you are dissatisfied, don't blame me for being unkind." The man became serious.

Having said all this, Jinyue also understands that the child in her stomach cannot be kept.

She was devastated, and tears began to fall silently.
