C16 Door
Deng Dalang was a shrewd person. He had a premonition that if he did not do something, his own faction would be defeated by his own hands.
"What nonsense are you talking about? That doctor is very fierce, he said that as long as you keep him alive, you will definitely be able to recover." Ji Chunhua didn't say anything. The doctor said that if he wanted Deng Dalang's leg to be completely fine, he would need to use good herbs.
However, such expensive medicinal materials would cost several silver coins in one go.
With her family's background, even if Deng Dalang had the best business, he still wouldn't be able to give out this kind of silver.
"Why don't we take over the two acres of dry land from Jinling first?"
Ji Chunhua felt that Dunkin Ling was her own daughter, something that she could take back when her family was in trouble.
"You want to come back? Is Jinling willing? " Deng Dalang felt that if he could really return to these two acres of dry land, even if his legs couldn't be cured, his family would still barely be able to survive. His youngest son would also be able to say that he was very close.
If she dares not give it to me, it is all given to her by this old lady, she is even full of bones, what else is not this old lady's, moreover, I do not want her land deed, her family has met with troubles, as a girl she cannot help out, she has to come over to plant it for a few years, after Jingu gets a little older, her family situation will improve, we can return that land to her.
Deng Dalang felt that his wife was right.
"That's fine too, I saw that her wife's family wasn't easy to get along with. Jinling has the land deed in her hands, and I was worried that her mother-in-law would coax her. So I decided to take it back and let Anxin live." Deng Dalang thought for a while. He couldn't do business with the Minister, so he could have the Village Head transform into a farmer. This way, his eldest son could continue to be a merchant and do business with the Minister.
I can make some plans for my family in the future. Jingu is still a merchant, so as he grows older, he will definitely be able to earn more silver coins. Then, he will be able to buy more good land and mulberry fields to put under my name.
Deng Dalang continued, "Actually, I don't want Jingu to do business again, it's just a small profit for me. If I had enough silver to set up a few fields like Zhou Family and let Jingu and Jinsuo grow their crops for a few years, my family might not have been able to add another mu to it, and I would have been able to return Jinling's land to her as early as possible."
He drew a very attractive pie for Ji Chunhua.
Ji Chunhua was envious of him. The Zhou Family cooked vegetables, and a lot of lard was placed in every single one of them. The green vegetables that were cooked were shiny, and smelled especially good, needless to say, his family could still cut some pork meat from time to time to eat.
When Ji Chunhua thought of this, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva. Her family could only eat a few more dishes of fresh chili sauce if the sky was turned upside down. Where would they find the money to eat pork in big mouthfuls?
"My cousin was lucky to have such a beautiful girl."
Ji Chunhua felt that Zhou Family was a good thing, as all the girls in Zhou Family had gotten married well.
Deng Dalang endured the pain and stretched out his left index finger. He lightly tapped his forehead and said, "All the girls in your cousin's family know a little bit of writing. I've heard of the Three Character Classic and the Hundred Families!"
"But then, isn't it because my first and second cousin know how to read that they're both married to the owner?"
Although he was just a small landowner, he could still get a donkey cart when he went out and an old lady could also cook dinner at home. He could do household chores all year round and also pull up one or two sets of silk clothes.
"Didn't Jinling's marriage have to do with my two female cousins?" Ji Chunhua was secretly pleased with herself from the bottom of her heart when she mentioned the Zhou Family.
And it was precisely because there was such a rich cousin. When she married into the Deng Family, because the make-up her cousins gave her was extremely eye-catching, she had never suffered the wrath of her mother-in-law.
"En, that's why I have to marry well so that I can live less hardship." Deng Dalang glanced at Ji Chunhua as he said this.
Seeing that she had heard it, he brought up Lin Anxin again.
"Is Siya alright?"
"A lowly life, she won't die. Jingu should be going to fry medicine for her." When she mentioned Lin Anxin, there was no place for Ji Chunhua to vent her anger.
Ji Chunhua's heart had always been conflicted. On one hand, she had thrown away her feelings for the daughter-in-law she personally brought up, and on the other hand, she hated the fact that she had misjudged her eldest son's heart.
"Alright, you are just like a blade with a mouth and a rotten heart. She is sick, yet you are still worried, her family has done bad things one after the other, making it difficult for you. As long as I can be like before, our family would have some good prospects, but now, sigh, tell me, why am I not as lucky as Cousin Zhou Family!
Deng Dalang was extremely shrewd. He would never directly ask Ji Chunhua to marry Lin Siya, this daughter-in-law, or if he really couldn't do it, he might even sell her to a brothel.
In his heart, he was doing this for the sake of the descendants of Deng Family. A child bride would be gone, and these past few days were very sad, and it was possible that many families would throw their newly born daughter away, so he could slowly look for her, pick her up, and raise her. He didn't need to worry about the betrothal gift, and he didn't need to worry about his wife taking her things back to his parents, and his own sons wouldn't need to be bothered by their wives either.
Deng Dalang's heart was filled with plans, and no matter how he thought about it, he felt that this matter was worth it.
Ji Chunhua sighed, "Ai, leader, you must hurry up and get better. I'm just a woman, and I don't know much, so what can I do. This family still needs your support and advice. Your fall has completely hollowed out our family."
"It's all my fault. If it weren't for the fact that I wanted to walk that way and go to another village, I wouldn't have been so unlucky as to have found a tael of money to support my family."
Deng Dalang had a sad look on his face as he tried to sit up and said, "I'm going to be a burden this time, so I might as well go and die, and there's no need for you three mother and son to go through so much trouble. As Wu Tie got bigger and bigger, those debts will always be paid, and now that Fourth Ya is nine years old, she can also take on the burden of raising her family. When she's well, you can go incubate some autumn ducks, have them put out the ducks, raise more pigs, and also have Fourth Sister put out some pig grass while you're at it."
How could Ji Chunhua be willing? She hurriedly held him down and cried out, "What are you doing? Aren't you holding a knife to my neck? Your leg is injured, but you are still the pillar of support of our family. How old is Jingu? "Jinsuo is getting older and bigger now. It's still possible to bring tea and water to you by keeping him at home."
Saying that, she continued: "You've been burning Copper Coin s day after day. I've been thinking about it for an entire afternoon and my days are numbered. You told me yesterday that you wanted to find a good marriage for Fourth Sister, and I think this is feasible. If we go to that rich and powerful place, Fourth Sister will definitely not blame us for not treating her well. "
Ji Chunhua thought over and over again. She could only marry her daughter-in-law as a daughter and exchange it for some silver taels to treat Deng Dalang's injuries.
"Ai, that's all we can do, when I'm willing to part with that child? As long as there's a way, I don't want to marry her. You're the one who was the one with the big hands, leave her in front of you, and when she gets old, I can talk with you. "
Deng Dalang stretched out his right hand and patted the back of Ji Chunhua's hand lightly, then said, "Even if you raise a little kitten and a little puppy, you've had feelings for them for three years. Deng Dalang reached out his right hand and patted the back of Ji Chunhua's hand lightly, and said," Even if you raise a little kitten and a little puppy, you've had feelings for them for three years.
"Hmm, I really can't bear to part with her. It took my boss's effort to teach her to be well-behaved and to be obedient, saying that he's going to take her as his daughter and marry her as his daughter."
Deng Dalang did not answer her. He did not dare to say that he was engaged to his wife. That girl could still stay in his home.
This was because the thoughts within his mind were vastly different from what he'd been thinking last night.
According to his intentions, he wanted to sell her to the brothel even though Lin Siya was dark and thin, but because she didn't have a good meal, and wore good clothes, if she served properly, she would definitely be a pretty and delicate young girl, not to mention she was already nine years old, which was the best age to sell.
Deng Dalang had a plan in his heart. If he married Lin Anxin as his daughter, she would only receive a few taels of silver as a gift, which was very impressive in this town. However, if he were to throw these few taels of silver in the water, it would cause a huge ruckus; however, if he were to throw these taels of silver into the water, he might not even be able to receive a few taels of silver.
If he sold her in a brothel, he could sell her for at least ten or eight taels of silver. If he sold her for ten or twenty taels of silver, he could just wait and see how the seller would bargain with him.
Now that he thought about it, his leg no longer hurt like it did before.
As expected, silver was the best thing.
Ji Chunhua began to nag again, "Boss, where are we going to get a good kiss in this short amount of time?"
Deng Dalang thought for a while and said, "Don't worry about it. I have a plan. Oh right, why haven't Jinling and Jin Chai come back yet?"
When Ji Chunhua heard this, her thoughts were distracted and she threw the matter of her marriage to the back of her mind.
He slapped his thigh and scolded: "At that time, I already told you not to give birth to so much, your mother must have wanted to give birth to more, what do you mean by opening branches and dispersing leaves, the world is flourishing, if there are any problems in the future, you can help out with your family. Pah! In my opinion, all your thoughts are on your family."
"Aiyo!" Deng Dalang laid there with a frown on his face.
"What's wrong, what's wrong, but does your leg hurt again?" Ji Chunhua didn't have time to scold her two heartless daughters. She rushed to the end of the bed and gently lifted the quilt. The quilted cloth that was tied to her legs was once again stained with fresh, red blood.
"What should I do?" Ji Chunhua was extremely anxious.
"Just bear with it." Deng Dalang thought for a while and said, "Tomorrow morning, go to the town and get a message to Jinling. Tell her to go back to her parents' home."
Ji Chunhua opened her mouth, but didn't say anything. Dunkin Ling came to her parents' house this afternoon. Not only did she not ask about her parents, she even went along with a large basket of vegetables to curry favor with her mother-in-law.
In her heart, she scolded Dunkin Ling, the brainless girl.
On Lin Anxin's side, when she woke up again, it was Deng Jingu who woke her up.
