Chapter 3 Death in battle
The place where grandma lived was much larger than other rooms, but Xia Huai didn't open it for a long time after returning home, whether it was because she didn't want to accept her death or not.

This time, she mustered up her courage and pushed open the door.

"."

Xia Huai stared blankly at everything around her, feeling extremely shocked.

This house is divided into two parts, the place where grandma rests only occupies one fifth, and the remaining four fifths are used to store other things.

The first thing I saw was rows of wooden shelves that looked like medicine shelves. The shelves were very high, but the middle was divided into layers of storage compartments.

Xia Huai approached and opened a small compartment, which was full of medicinal herbs.

"This is ginseng?" Xia Huai exclaimed.

Although she is not good at pharmacy, at least she has an understanding of familiar medicinal materials.

The more precious medicinal materials are Ganoderma lucidum, ginseng, velvet antler, and Cordyceps sinensis. They are all here.

If you want to say what you are most afraid of in such backward ancient times, it must be the fear that there will be no medicine for illness!
Although Chinese medicine is not as effective as western medicine, it is also much better than myrrh!

Looking at the rows of medicinal grids, Xia Huai walked excitedly to the place where her grandma slept.

The place where grandma sleeps is very simple, just a wooden bed, a bedside table is placed beside the bed, and a painting is hung on the bedside table.

For some reason, Xia Huai always felt a little weird staring at the painting, but when she was about to reach out to touch it, an anxious call came from her ear.

"Huai'er, Huai'er, wake up!" Zhou Huiniang called out to her daughter while wiping her tears with a handkerchief.

"Dashan's family, I know you are in a hurry, but don't be so anxious." The old man with the medicine box on the side stroked his beard and persuaded: "Your girl is just exhausted, let her have a rest, and feed some rice when she wakes up." Just water."

But Zhou Huiniang didn't listen, she was full of thoughts that her daughter brought the baby back to her mother's house in misery, and there were no servants or husband-in-law by her side.She thought a lot, and she couldn't help thinking of the worst.Seeing my daughter lying on the ground in a daze, I couldn't stand my emotions.

The house at home was collapsed by the earthquake, so I could only find some dry straw and spread a piece of clean cloth for my daughter to make do with it.

The more Zhou Huiniang thought about it, the sadder she became, and the crying became louder.

The three-year-old Rui Geer also tugged on Xia Huai's sleeve nervously and fearfully, but he didn't cry, on the contrary, he was very well-behaved.

Suddenly, Brother Rui pointed at Xia Huai with a pleasant expression on his face: "Mother, mother is awake!"

Xia Dashan, who had been silent all this time, hurried forward, Xia Huai looked at her father as soon as she opened her eyes.

".father?"

"Hey!" Xia Dashan responded happily, his big eyes narrowed with laughter.

"Huai'er, you're awake, I'm really going to be scared to death by you." Zhou Huiniang cried and laughed at the same time, feeling a little confused.

Xia Huai stood up and stretched out her hands towards Brother Rui, hugging her son in her arms, and when she was about to say something, a thin but unpleasant voice came from her ear.

"Little Huai, why are you back?"

Everyone subconsciously turned their heads to look, and it turned out to be Wu Xiaorong, the second daughter-in-law of Dafang.

Xia Huai looked straight at Wu Xiaorong, she still had an impression of this second sister-in-law.

When she got married, Wu Xiaorong had been married to Lao Xia's family for three years, and she had only one daughter, Mingzhu.

Xia Huai looked around and made sure that her second sister-in-law hadn't achieved anything in the three years since she married, so she suddenly realized.

Maybe the original owner couldn't see it or figure it out, but from the perspective of a bystander, Xia Huai could see that Wu Xiaorong was patriarchal and petty.Although she is a village girl with a slightly better color, she always feels that she is not well married.

The second cousin, Xia Qiao, is an unreserved slob, and the second sister-in-law has been unable to have a son for several years in a row, so she is easily unconscious!

Seeing Wu Xiaorong's careless eyes, Xia Huai knew that what the second sister-in-law asked was not good.

Sure enough, Zhou Huiniang's face darkened: "Mother Mingzhu, what do you mean by that?"

Wu Xiaorong lowered her head in a panic, twisting her dress subconsciously with both hands: "Third Aunt, I, I don't mean anything else, I just care about Xiao Huai"

Zhou Huiniang snorted coldly: "Who will know if she cares? Alright, my daughter just woke up, so don't be surrounded by so many people!"

Although everyone was very curious about Xia Huai carrying the child back to her mother's house, they did not dare to offend Zhou Huiniang.

Don't look at Zhou Huiniang who looks gentle and gentle, but she is actually a stubborn person, but if you offend her, no one will feel better about it!

In the end, only Xia Dashan and his wife, Mrs. Feng and the old man carrying the medicine box remained.

"Old Doctor Zhang, I'm really sorry to trouble you, let's go, I'll take you back." Old Madam Feng forcefully forced a smile on the old man's face.

Old Doctor Zhang chuckled and didn't refuse.

When the people left, Xia Dashan anxiously asked Xia Huai: "Girl, what's going on? Why did you come back with the child? Where's Jiahe?"

When Shen Jiahe was mentioned, Xia Huai's expression was a little dazed and bitter.

Her short-lived husband
Seeing that the daughter was sad, Zhou Huiniang hurriedly beat Xia Dashan: "You are sick, I didn't see the daughter." While beating, she hinted at Xia Dashan with her eyes.

Zhou Huiniang's action of beating Xia Dashan was not small. Xia Huai recovered from her grief, and seeing her father enduring the pain, couldn't help laughing out loud: "Mother, don't blame my father, it's actually nothing wrong."

When Xia Huai spoke, Zhou Huiniang screamed, "It's nothing wrong?!"

Xia Huai was actually sad too, not because of any friendship with Shen Jiahe.Rather, it was probably affected by some emotions of the original owner, as well as embarrassment at the humble status of women in this era, and worries about where to go in the future.

According to her recollection, even though Shen Jiahe was good-looking, he seemed to be okay with her?But they only got together for one night, and Shen Jiahe was called back to the front line to fight.

It should be said that girls in the village generally have no chance to marry, and even if they do marry, it is considered a high marriage if they can marry in the town.

But Xia Huai is not, she is a typical phoenix flying up the branches in the village.

Her father was a street job picker, once when he was doing business outside, he rescued Shen Jiahe, and after Shen Jiahe recovered from his injury, he threw a pile of money to Xia Dashan.

While Xia Dashan was startled, he refused the money. He had a long-term vision and wanted to make friends with Shen Jiahe.

Who would have thought that this boy begged for his face when he saw her daughter at a glance, then threw down a lot of dowry and abducted his daughter!

Of course, the inside story is not so simple.In the eyes of the villagers, it is a great blessing for Xia Huai to marry a rich, young and promising man!
After her daughter got married, not only was it difficult to return home because the two places were too remote, Xia Huai hadn't even returned to her natal home for several years.

Some people in the village were envious and jealous, and couldn't help but say a few sour words.

This family satirizes Xia Dashan's family for selling a daughter, and that family satirizes Xia Huai's being dazzled by wealth and wealth, and doesn't look down on Xiushui Village at all!
Facing these, Xia Dashan and his wife were silent.

They had asked their daughter's opinion at the beginning, and she was willing, Shen Jiahe was willing, and Shen Jiahe was capable.Can they stop it?
Xia Dashan's fists were clenched, and his darkened face from running around all year round turned even darker: "This Shen Jiahe keeps saying that he will take good care of you, but unexpectedly..."

Zhou Huiniang was also very sad, but she still managed to persuade the husband: "Dashan, forget it, he, he is not easy."

He sacrificed his life for the country at a young age, Yu Jia, of course he did very poorly.But Yu Guo, he did nothing wrong.
