Chapter 285

Whether Ding Wu is a child, there is limited information to inquire about, and the specific situation will only be known after Luo Baisu returns at night.

Back then, Yu's family was poor, and Shuzhen's father was not in good health and couldn't do heavy work, let alone like other men, he often went up the mountain to hunt some prey, and he could exchange some food outside. My own woman raised her, and later Yu's sister-in-law gave birth to Shuzhen, and the family didn't even have a stutter. Shuzhen's father took a hunting bow and went out, saying that he went hunting in the mountains, but never came back. People in the village Everyone thought that he was eaten by wild animals when he entered the mountain, and sister-in-law Yu also believed so, and almost went blind from crying.

Originally, sister-in-law Yu also wanted to go with her, but she managed to support herself when she saw the young Shuzhen, who was just born, screaming from hunger all day long. The Jianyi people came to make troubles from time to time, and life became more and more difficult. If it hadn't happened this year that the imperial court sent troops to garrison and encouraged land reclamation, I am afraid that the two of them would not be able to survive.

Most of the women in the mountains are hardworking and capable. Sister-in-law Yu has been working in the fields day and night this year. Even Xiao Shuzhen helped to pick up grass roots in the fields. She managed to open two acres of wasteland and hit hundreds of people. When she felt that life finally had something to look forward to, Shuzhen's father came back. Not only did he come back, but he also brought a young woman by her side. baby.

It turned out that Shuzhen's father didn't go to the mountains back then. He saw that the family's burden was too heavy, and Yu's sister-in-law had a daughter. He felt that life was hopeless, so he abandoned his wife and daughter and ran to Tong County alone. Thirsty and hungry, he suffered a lot, and almost passed out on the side of the road. Fortunately, a young old man who opened a tea shed rescued him and gave him food, so he recovered.

After Shuzhen's father took care of himself, he naturally stayed in the tea shed to help with rough work, chopping firewood and boiling water, greeting guests, and willing to do anything. The little old man had no children at home, only a young lady, Not yet married, although Shuzhen's father was not very tall, but he looked very honest and hardworking, so the little old man wanted to recruit her into his family.Shuzhen's father is also afraid of poverty, not to mention that he ran out of the village in the name of abandoning his wife and daughter in his hometown. I don't know how many times it will make a man like him, but he likes it very much in his heart, so he concealed the fact that he had a wife and daughter in his hometown, and married the little old man's daughter. After the old couple passed away, Shuzhen's father took over the tea shed , the new daughter-in-law gave birth to him a daughter and a son, and Shuzhen's father even forgot about his wife and daughter in his hometown, and devoted himself to doting on the new wife and children.

It's just that the daughter-in-law he married later was good at everything, but she had a problem. She liked to gamble and often went to the gambling house. It was better when the old man in front of her was around. Later, when the two elders passed away and no one was holding her, she became more and more serious. She has no scruples, even the children in the family are ignored. Shuzhen's father has to take care of the shop during the day and take care of two children. How can he be so busy? She is alive, Shuzhen's father thinks that she seldom loses money from gambling, and sometimes she can win some money back. Yes, he is a visiting son-in-law, and he lacks confidence after all, so he has no choice but to let her go. He only tells her to be careful when gambling outside, and just think about the children at home and have a sense of propriety.

It's just that people who like to gamble lose nine out of ten bets, and there are many dealers who often set up games to let you win some small money, which makes you addicted and your appetite is whetted, so they let you lose. If you win, you still want to win, and if you lose, you want to win back your capital. The more you gamble, the more you lose, and the more you lose, the more you lose.

The new daughter-in-law was like this. She won a lot at the beginning, but then she gradually lost all of it. She also lost the dowry that the two elders had left for her. When the dowry was gone, she went to gamble with the money in the shop, but A roadside tea stand, how much income is there every day, is not enough for her to play two games on the table, she loses her eyes, borrows money from the dealer to get back her capital, and finally even mortgages the tea shed where she eats Not counting, but also owed a lot of money to the casino.

The money from the casino is not easy to owe, the interest is heavy, and if it is not paid out, she has to take her pair of children to pay for it. Shuzhen's father can't help it. Thinking of his hometown, he heard that the new grandfather in Yi County is very angry. Compassionate for the people, now it is easier to make a living in Yi County than outside, and every household has collected food, so Shuzhen's father secretly came back from Tong County with his wife and children.

The new daughter-in-law also grew up pampered in Tong County. She was already very unhappy when she arrived in the dilapidated place of Yi County, but seeing that there was a warehouse of grain in the Yu family warehouse, she encouraged the man to sell the grain and move to the county. , Still open a tea shed to live.

For so many years, Sister-in-Law Yu always thought that the man was dead, and brought her daughter to live in misery. How could she know that not only did her man not die, but she got another daughter-in-law outside, and even gave birth to two children? A thunderbolt struck his head.

That's not to mention, the first thing the man did when he came back was to sell the food she had worked so hard for, and he was so angry that he ran to the yamen to beat the drum and complain.

Luo Tian's eyes were wide open when he heard this, there is really no worst scum in this world, only worse.If it was her instead, it would be no wonder that such a man didn't beat him to death!
"Then how do you judge this case?" Luo Tiandu asked curiously.

She hadn't forgotten that the laws these days favored men, and because of this, Shuzhen's mother wanted to sue her own man, no matter what the final verdict was, she would have to spend a few days in the yamen.

Luo Baisu said: "It hasn't been decided yet, both sides have taken it into custody first, and we will make a decision after the trial."

"This kind of bastard, why should he be tried in court, he should be sentenced to pay his gambling debts by himself, and sister-in-law Yu and Shuzhen should live separately."

Luo Baisu heard this, looked up at her, and said, "This is against the law."

Luo Tian was annoyed, the law these days favors men and scholars, it is against hard-working women.

"Sister-in-law Yu is also in custody?" Luo Mingdu asked.

"Sister-in-law Yu should also be taken into custody, but since her daughter Shuzhen is still young and needs to be taken care of by her family, she is exempted. Let her family take care of the child and come back on the day when the church opens."

Only then did Luo Tiandu feel relieved, and angrily said: "This kind of bastard, death is not a pity!"

Mrs. Fang didn't know what she thought of, she didn't reprimand Luo Tian's indecent words, and she nodded in agreement frequently: "That is, when a man's family is poor, he doesn't think about how to support his family, but abandons his wife and son, and marries another man outside. He made money without thinking about his wife and children in his hometown, and only came back after something happened, this kind of man is really worse than a dog."

Because of this, the Luo family was very angry. The next day, Luo Tian was still very angry, and felt that Shuzhen was very pitiful for having such a father.

It's true that every family has bad things, and no one is peaceful.

"Okay, don't be angry, there is no calculation class today, go to the lecture, Shuzhen is here, don't talk nonsense, and make the little girl sad." Fang persuaded her.

Luo Tiandu nodded, holding the homework notebook he approved yesterday, and hurried out. Before he left the inner house, he saw Xiang Lan's daughter-in-law who was helping in the kitchen and was later arranged by Fang to take care of Xiang Lan. He rushed over in panic, and the two almost collided.

Luo Tian was worried, he frowned and asked, "Why are you panicking?!"

When the daughter-in-law saw her, she said with a trembling voice, "Little lady, where's the madam? I'm afraid Xiang Lan is about to give birth..."

When Luo Tiandu heard this, he was so shocked that the red paper in his hand fell to the ground, he turned around and ran towards the inner courtyard.

"Mother, Sister Xiang Lan is about to give birth, please come and help me."

When Fang came out, his expression was very calm.A few days ago, Dr. You took Xiang Lan's pulse, and said that Xiang Lan would only be in the next few days, and asked the mansion to prepare the things he needed earlier.The family has been busy with these things these few days. The stable woman invited by Cheng Qing has already taken over and arranged to live in the mansion. The Fang family has already prepared all the things that will be used, and is just waiting there. As soon as there is any noise, just go over and help.

At this moment, Fang ordered people to invite Wen Po and Cheng Qing in an orderly manner, and asked the daughter-in-law to boil water, while she herself hurried to the courtyard where Xiang Lan and Cheng Qing lived.

For a moment, the yard was in a panic, and the tense atmosphere infected Luo Zijin, who still didn't understand anything. He opened his mouth and cried loudly, and Ding Wu, who was writing on the side, was also at a loss.

Luo Mingdu hugged Luo Zijin, kept rocking him to coax him, and saw Luo Tiandu standing in the yard like a fool, with the red paper in his hand falling all over the ground without noticing it, he hurriedly said: "Xiaodu, shouldn't you go to the front to teach Mingshu? What are you doing stupidly in the yard? The paper is all wet on the ground."

Only then did Luo Tiandu suddenly come back to his senses, bent down mechanically, and picked up the notebook.

Luo Ming looked at her like that and knew she was flustered. Moreover, she was an unmarried girl. Afraid of scaring her, he put Luo Zijin into her hand and said, "Take Zijin and Ding Five, go ahead and do your work, I don’t need you here, I’ll go and have a look.”

Luo Tian lowered his head to see Luo Zijin's blushing face from crying, knowing that he would be useless if he stayed here, and fearing that Luo Zijin would be frightened, he quickly hugged him in his arms and led him to the front tax office went.

The school was chaotic, the primary school students all stretched their necks to look out, and some even reached out their hands to catch the snowdrops under the eaves. When they saw Luo Tian coming in, they all shrank back one by one, winking, only Yu Shuzhen There was a girl with red eyes shrunk in the corner, it was very pitiful to cry or not.

Luo Tian watched it all, and sighed in his heart, it was all the adults' fault, making the children miserable.She asked Ding Wu to lead Luo Zijin, chose a bench to sit on, collected herself, and began to give lectures, even putting aside the matter of being angry and wanting to lose her temper because the elementary school students copied their homework, and ignored it.

She cared about Xiang Lan in her heart, and she had no intention of giving lectures. After explaining a few questions, she let them review by themselves, and walked back and forth in the classroom by herself.

The primary school students stared at Luo Zijin curiously and whispered.They all knew that this little doll was the young son of the grandfather's family, but they thought this little doll was really beautiful, with big eyes, white skin, and bulging cheeks, and it was even more beautiful than the golden boy in the New Year pictures. He glanced at Luo Zijin.
