15. Fidgeting
Pei You's private school at home had been out of school, and while the sky was still bright, he took a book and read it in the courtyard, very attentive. Until the sound of hurried footsteps outside and the noise of the crowd was heard. He subconsciously looked up at the courtyard, and happened to see Jiang Funian rushing home with Jiang Wan in his arms, he was shocked, and walked out of the courtyard with a book in his hand, just in time to meet Xu Fenggu, who looked indistinguishable.
Xu Fenggu seemed to have something on her mind, and hurriedly followed Jiang Funian, who was far away, to her own direction, and had no intention of stopping.
Pei You suddenly panicked in his heart, he remembered the closed eyes of Jiang Wan that he had just glanced at and seen, and saw that Xu Fenggu was so anxious that he ignored him, and he knew in his heart that the situation was not good. It just so happened that Li Zheng came from behind, and he asked with a straight face: "Li Zheng, what happened, so noisy?" ”
Li Zheng Xu Guanghai knew that Pei You was going to be an official sooner or later, so he had always been polite to him, and when he asked, he stopped, sighed and said: "Da Fu Niang and Jiang Funian's family fought, Jiang Wan was hurt by her, and I don't know what the situation is. ”
Pei You's expression changed slightly, but Li Zheng didn't care, frowning and sighing: "I just hope she's okay...... Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be trouble. ”
If Jiang Wan had something, he could almost see the situation of Xu Fenggu and Dafu Niang's family dying. Xu Fenggu used to have a soft temperament and didn't like to quarrel with others. However, since Jiang Wan was broken by Li Jincui's head, her temperament has become a little tough, and thinking of the cruel words that Xu Fenggu put down before, Li Zheng's brows are so tight that she can catch mosquitoes.
Seeing that Pei You didn't speak, Li Zheng also remembered Jiang Wan's side in his heart, so he said, "Mr. Pei, I'll go over and take a look first." ”
Li Zheng left, and also took Pei You's thoughts.
Jiang Wan had an accident...... It's so strict that you might die?
This news was too shocking, and Pei You was a little overwhelmed. Since returning everything that belonged to Jiang Wan to her, he hadn't seen her again. His mother told Jiang Wan's father and mother to ask her not to come to him again, and he also returned all the things, showing his attitude, any woman with a shameful heart could not get up again, so he didn't feel strange that he couldn't see her.
It's just that in the past two days, he can't help but think about it.
He thought it made sense. He also knows that he can only read, and when it comes to seeing through people's hearts, he is not as good as his blind mother. And he has always been filial, so he was persuaded by his mother and broke off contact with Jiang Wan. However, he often felt that Jiang Wan was really like a goblin in the book, he already knew her true face, and he had made up his mind to study hard and prepare for the spring festival, but his mind always broke into her shadow from time to time.
In addition to the idea that he knew her true face and was far away from her, there seemed to be a faint voice hidden in his heart, which appeared from time to time. That voice was always persuading him, saying that Jiang Wan was not that kind of person, the so-called seducing people to leave a way back, in fact, people used false rumors, just as she said in her book, the three of them became tigers, and anything that was rumored would lose its authenticity. He had talked so much to her and met so many times, she was obviously a straightforward woman.
As for the script...... Could it be, could it be just a coincidence? She just wanted to write a story like that, and it just so happened that she was a widow herself, and he was just a man, or was it ...... There's still a difference, right?
Although the voice in his heart is small, it can always come up inadvertently, making him uneasy. In the past few days, he said that he was reading books, but it is difficult to say how much he really read. He knew he had to listen to his mother, but he felt a little sad in his heart.
If it was true that all of them misunderstood Jiang Wan, she just wanted to be literate and wanted to write a script to find him, but he and his mother misunderstood her like that and regarded her as such an unbearable person, how sad would she be at this moment? He hadn't finished reading her book, but he remembered the part he had read, and when everyone misunderstood the widow in the book, she always had a smile on her face, as if she didn't care about anything, but her heart hurt as if she was dripping blood and being torn apart......
On weekdays, he still has his senses, and such a small voice only appears from time to time, but now, when he heard that Jiang Wan was seriously injured and was likely to die, Pei You panicked, and the voice suddenly became louder, making him restless.
He quietly glanced back at his house, the room was quiet, and his mother didn't seem to notice the commotion outside. He was hesitating, but he saw a group of people slowly walking over, and it was Dafu Niang who was surrounded in the middle.
After Dafu Niang was frightened by Jiang Wan's words and Li Zheng's words, she was a little weak and wanted to slip away. However, many of the onlookers in Shanxia Village had a disagreement with Dafu Niang, and they didn't let her go, and said that if something happened to Jiang Wanzhen, she couldn't escape if she wanted to.
Dafu Niang was frightened enough by the villagers' words and my words, and finally slowly moved her steps over. She hated Jiang Wan in her heart, but at this time, she had to pray to the Buddha and Bodhisattva to bless Jiang Wan if she was okay, otherwise she might have to see an official and be arrested and locked up in prison. I heard that the prison was full of rats, human blood, and severed hands and feet, and if she really went in, she would have to be scared to death!
Dafu Niang walked to Jiang Wan's house tremblingly, and she couldn't care about what the people around her were saying. She only felt that it was the first time that she had prayed to the heavens so devoutly that Jiang Wan would be okay.
The sound of this large group of people passing by finally alarmed Pei You's mother. Xu Chunying came out on crutches and asked, "You'er, what's going on?" ”
Pei You glanced at his mother, and said lightly: "Uncle Jiang's family seems to have an accident, and the child doesn't know very well." He didn't know what he was thinking, and he didn't say that he knew that Jiang Wan was seriously injured.
Xu Chunying frowned when she heard this, and said for a moment: "That's someone else's business, and it has nothing to do with us." You concentrate on your studies and don't pay attention. ”
"Yes, mother." Pei You hurriedly responded.
Xu Chunying turned around and went back to the house on crutches, and Pei You stood in the empty courtyard with a book, not knowing what to do for a long time. After fighting for a long time in his heart, he slowly stood at the door, glanced back at the house, took a step out, and walked outside the courtyard door.
At first, Pei You was still pretending to read to the plane tree, but after a while, he turned around and looked in the direction of Jiang Wan's house, and his face unconsciously showed worry.
She...... She'll be fine, right?
After Jiang Wan was carried by Jiang Funian to her room at home and put down, she asked her father to quickly close the door. After a while, Xu Fenggu came in, the three of them looked at each other, Jiang Wan smiled and said, "Mother, you are so powerful!" "That acting, it's amazing.
Xu Fenggu couldn't help but smile: "I'm not angry yet......" said, her face showed a worried face, "Wanwan, then what should I do next?" I'm right behind me, I'm afraid I'll have to make sure you're okay......" She was a little worried that this farce of pretending to be seriously injured would not end.
"Mother, don't worry, didn't Xiao Er go to ask for a doctor? I'll talk about it when the doctor comes. Jiang Wan smiled, "At this moment, let's let Dafu Niang's heart beat for a while." ”
When the doctor comes and announces that she is fine, it can only mean that she is lucky, although she hurts her chest, she is fine, and no one can say that she is pretending to be sick. It's a big deal to give the doctor some copper coins and ask him to help out more strictly, anyway, the doctor is from the next village, and he doesn't come often on weekdays.
"Her frightened and stupid appearance is really happy to see my mother's heart." Xu Fenggu said, "It's still Wanwan, you have a lot of ideas, if you hadn't pretended to be sick, she would have relied on our family at this moment." She also sees through the character of Dafu Niang.
"Yes, I'm not just taking revenge on her, I'm protecting myself." Jiang Wan said.
Jiang Funian had been silent, and suddenly said at this time: "Damn, Wanwan, it's not good for us to frighten people." ”
Xu Fenggu said angrily: "When she said that we were tactful and bad, didn't you see her feel ashamed of our family?" You're soft-hearted! ”
Jiang Funian stopped talking.
Xu Fenggu continued: "It's good to scare her to death!" I know all day long that I gossip Wanwan and ruin Wanwan's reputation, I really want to tear her mouth apart! Seeing her face turn white with fright today, it made me angry! ”
Jiang Funian sighed, sat on the side and watched what the two of them did, and he didn't care.
At this time, Li Zheng shouted outside: "Aunt Feng, what's wrong with Wanwan, are you okay?" ”
Jiang Wan hurriedly lay down on the bed, scooped up the quilt and closed her eyes. Xu Fenggu rubbed her eyes, made a sad look on her face, opened the door and said, "Uncle Cousin, are you here...... Wanwan, Wanwan she ......"
"Don't worry, don't worry, Xiao Er has gone to ask for a doctor, he will come over soon, Wanwan will be fine." Xu Guanghai hurriedly reassured.
"If something happens to Wanwan, I won't live!" Xu Fenggu choked up and said. She recalled the horror when her daughter was smashed in the head by Li Jincui, and tears flowed down her eyes.
Xu Guanghai only felt anxious, and he didn't know how to end this mess. At this moment, he couldn't help but complain a little about Dafu Niang, he knew that Dafu Niang's mouth could say anything, I don't know how many people had made trouble with her because of her mouth, it was just a small fight before, and he would have mediated it in the past, but now seeing Jiang Wan so strict, how can he mediate and fool the past at will? He knows that his cousin and niece have a very good temper, and Dafu Niang doesn't provoke too ruthlessly, where is this bad thing!
Hearing the commotion outside, Xu Guanghai walked out of the door and reprimanded Dafu Niang again with a gloomy face. Dafu Niang was worried in her heart, she was as well-behaved as a quail, she listened to the scolding in a muffled voice for a while, and asked coldly: "Jiang Wan, ...... Still alive, right? ”
Xu Guanghai glared at her: "How did you speak?" People of such an age have lived to be dogs, aren't they? Hurry home and get the money, she has to ask for the doctor's money! ”
Dafu Niang subconsciously replied: "Why should I come out?" ”
Seeing that she still looked like this, Xu Guanghai raised his voice and said angrily: "Dafu Niang, I can tell you, if Jiang Wan can't be cured, I will definitely drag you to see the official!" When the time comes, don't talk about silver, you have to take your life into it! ”
Dafu Niang's face turned pale, and she gritted her teeth: "I, I'll go back and get it!" She turned and ran.
After a while, Dafu Niang came back first, she was holding a string of copper coins in her hand, and before she could hand it to Xu Guanghai, she was scolded by him: "Do you think they want food?" She was injured like that, and even the errand fee for inviting Dr. Qian over was not enough for this copper coin! ”
Dafu Niang shuddered, quickly hid the string of copper coins, and took out a few coins of silver in a trembling manner.
Xu Guanghai almost rolled his eyes and said coldly, "Do you still want to live?" ”
Dafu Niang shook and hurriedly took out all the silver in her arms, which was enough for two taels.
When Xu Guanghai stretched out his hand, Dafu Niang was still reluctant, and he glared at him before letting go. He went back to the back room and knocked on the door, Xu Fenggu opened the door, he handed the money in, and said a few good words for Dafu Niang.
Xu Fenggu listened to Xu Guanghai in silence, then grabbed the silver and threw it out, glaring at Dafu Niang fiercely: "I don't rare your silver!" ”
Although she is indeed not rare in the silver of Dafu's mother's family, the silver earned during this time is the source of confidence for her to say this. It is enough to have silver around her waist, and when she loses it, she is really happy.
Dafu Niang hurriedly rushed over and picked up all the silver, ran to Xu Fenggu and cried: "Sister Fenggu, it's all my fault, I was blinded by lard to do that kind of thing, you should be more responsible, don't be angry with me, okay?" You just took my money and treated Wanwan well, okay? ”
When Xu Guanghai wanted Dafu Niang to take the silver to Jiang Wan for treatment, she was reluctant, but it can be seen that Xu Fenggu refused to accept it, so she panicked again. Doesn't the fact that she doesn't collect money mean that Xu Fenggu is going to die with her? She was frightened and rushed over and cried a handful of snot and tears.
Xu Fenggu said hatefully: "Why did you go earlier?!" ”
She took a step back and slammed the door shut.
"Hey, Sister Feng!" Dafu Niang just slapped the door panel twice, and was pulled out by Xu Guanghai.
He dropped a sentence: "Wait until the doctor comes!" "I don't pay attention to Dafu Niang anymore.
Jiang Gu is fast, and the next village is not far from here, so Dr. Qian was quickly invited by him, and he helped Dr. Qian carry the medicine box on his back, and walked all the way, so tired that Dr. Qian worked hard.
When passing by Pei You's house, Jiang Gu glanced at Pei You, who was standing under the plane tree, looking too engrossedly, Jiang Gu didn't notice it when he passed by, and was caught by him.
Jiang Gu has always felt that her sister is so good, and whoever bullies her should be beaten. In the past, he had no respect for Pei You, but since he heard Pei Youniang say that his sister was not good that day, he felt that Pei You's family was not good. At this moment, seeing that Pei You was actually watching the excitement of his house, he suddenly stopped and said in a rough voice: "What to see, don't look at it!" ”
Pei You was startled, and just wanted to explain something, but Jiang Gu glared at him hatefully, and walked quickly with the medicine box on his back. Dr. Qian followed breathlessly, and he didn't have time to pay attention to Pei You.
Pei You opened his mouth and froze there with an uneasy expression, it was not right to continue to stand here, nor was it to go back to the courtyard.
