After Xiao Fubao's Life Was Stolen, He Became the Favorite of Everyone In the Capital Chapter 2

Chapter 2 I haven't gotten in the car yet

 Although Zhang Yunniang heard the commotion caused by Mrs. Cai and Jinbao behind her, she held it back and did not look back.

However, Third Aunt Gu was watching the excitement and did not think it was a big deal. She shouted to Zhang Yunniang, who was hurriedly running out with her child in her arms: "Yunniang, your stepmother fell, your nephew was burned, and your brother and sister-in-law are not at home. Don't worry. Run away, come back and take a look!"

Zhang Yuniang turned her back to Aunt Gu. Originally, she had a bad relationship with her mother's family and didn't care about her stepmother and nephew at all. However, the country was governed by filial piety, and her husband had to take the imperial examination. The word "filial piety" was suppressed. If she didn't care about this I'm just afraid that my husband will be gossiped about.

But if she really wanted to take care of it, she would definitely give these two people money to hire a doctor. If the money she spent was not returned, she would not even be able to spare a personal favor.

For the current plan, the only way to break the situation seems to be to have a more upright person than her appear to take charge of this matter.

Just when Zhang Yunniang was struggling, Niu Niu in her arms suddenly let out a warning, her face burning with pain: "It's... uncomfortable..."

Zhang Yunniang's heart tightened, and she immediately threw away all her worries. She was afraid that the child would be burnt and confused, so she would leave directly without caring.

Coincidentally, as soon as she took this step, two familiar figures appeared at the intersection. They were her brother Zhang Guangzong and her sister-in-law Xiao Cai.

He really fell asleep and came to the pillow. Zhang Yunniang hurriedly said to him: "Mom is injured. Jinbao seems to have been burned. Go back and have a look."

As soon as little Cai heard that her precious son was injured, she rushed home regardless of anything else.

Zhang Guangzong, on the other hand, stared at the child in Zhang Yunniang's arms with a gloomy look, stretched out his hand to **** it away, and asked: "Where are you taking Niuniu?"

Zhang Yunniang had to be a little tolerant towards Granny Cai, because Granny Cai was an elder and it was not easy for her to contradict her.

But facing this younger brother who was no fun, she was not afraid at all. She acted like an eldest sister on the spot and said loudly: "What can I do with your daughter? Of course I want to hire a doctor for her! Could it be that like you, Watching people burn to death?"

Zhang Guangzong was taken aback by the eldest sister's sudden aggressiveness.

However, there were too many villagers watching the excitement around him. He considered himself a scholar and it was not easy for him to quarrel with a woman in public.

Zhang Yunniang once again stood on the moral high ground and pointed, reprimanding: "Zhang Guangzong, do you have any conscience? You don't even worry about your mother getting hurt. You are still a scholar!"

These words were quite serious, so serious that Zhang Guangzong could not ignore them.

He glared at Zhang Yunniang fiercely, and then rushed home with an aggrieved look on his face.

Zhang Yunniang breathed a sigh of relief as this pile of **** was finally pushed out, and she hurried to the village entrance with Niu Niu in her arms, just in time to catch Uncle Niu passing by with his ox cart.

"Uncle Niu, wait for me, I'm going to the town!" Zhang Yunniang shouted towards the ox cart.

The bullock cart stopped. It was so full that there were no empty seats.

But the aunts and daughters-in-law in the car looked anxious when they saw her holding the child, so they squeezed each other and barely made a seat available for her.

After Zhang Yunniang gave Uncle Niu a copper, Uncle Niu waved his whip and the ox cart started slowly.

Uncle Niu is not actually named Niu, but he is the only one in several nearby villages who drives cattle carts to carry people into the town every day, so he is called Uncle Niu.

Several villages are close to each other, and there is an aunt on the oxcart who knows Yunniang. At this time, she said: "Are you Yunniang, the little daughter-in-law of the old Gu family? My husband and your mother-in-law are cousins. You can just call me cousin. You You're so lucky. If the oxcart hadn't been delayed by something just now, the car would have left long ago and you wouldn't be able to get on. "

Zhang Yunniang hurriedly said: "Cousin, it's thanks to the kindness of everyone that they are willing to squeeze a place for me, otherwise I don't know what to do with the child."

She didn't feel how lucky she was, and she only hoped that Niuniu in her arms could survive this difficulty.

The cousin also noticed the child in her arms. Seeing the red face, she stretched out her hand to touch it and said, "Is this too hot? Don't burn the child. Is this your daughter? I remember your family." They are all sons, where is the daughter?”

Zhang Yuniang explained: "She is my niece. She has a high fever. I sent her to the town to see a doctor."

My cousin was a little surprised when she heard this. After all, people in the countryside live a hard life, and some poor families may not be willing to call a doctor if their son is sick, let alone a girl, especially since this child is just her mother's niece.

"This child is lucky to have an aunt like you who cares about her." Although my cousin said this, she felt that Zhang Yunniang was too supportive of her parents' family.

Although Zhang Yuniang was a country woman who never went to school, she knew the lethality of fame. She continued without any hesitation: "If she is really lucky, I don't have to worry about it. This child is a solid person, and her younger brother is naughty." She fell into the water. She was so small that she dared to rush into the river to save others. I don't know where she got the strength to lift her brother out of the river. It took a long time for her to be fished out. "

"Her parents don't care about their daughter at all. I'm not willing to burn such a good child alive. I want to send her to the town to see a doctor now."

Zhang Yuniang couldn't help but feel sad when she talked about this. Niu Niu was obviously trying to save her younger brother, but she was accused by Mrs. Cai of being the broom star.

My cousin wiped her tears after hearing this and said, "Oh, from what you said, this kid is really a good kid. That brother and sister-in-law of yours are so cruel!"

Zhang Yuniang knew that telling these things was basically the same as ruining her brother's reputation. She did it on purpose.

She couldn't swallow this breath.

Just thinking of Niu Niu's pitiful appearance lying in the woodshed, not knowing whether to live or die, she seemed to see herself who was sick and was driven to the corner by her stepmother to wait for death, and she immediately hugged the child tighter.

"By the way, speaking of your natal brother, isn't that Zhang Guangzong who picked up ginseng in the mountains a few years ago?" asked my cousin.

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the car immediately stretched their heads, and even Uncle Niu who was driving the car pricked up his ears. A few years ago, Zhang Guangzong's collection of century-old ginseng caused a sensation in several local villages. Villagers rushed to Daqing Mountain to try their luck, but all returned in vain.

Seeing Zhang Yunniang nodding, her cousin became even more excited and said, "I heard that he used the money from selling ginseng to build a big house. It stands to reason that he is not short of money, so why didn't he save his daughter? If I had such a good daughter, I would be so proud of her. It's too late to feel the pain in my hands, how could I leave her alone?”

"Yes, yes, this kind of person can still pass the Tongsheng Examination!"

Faced with everyone's chatter, Zhang Yunniang showed a bitter smile at the right time. She never mentioned that Niuniu was an adopted daughter, but said: "Her parents only care about eating and drinking when they are rich, so how can they be willing to spend money on their daughter?" ”

Everyone immediately expressed their disdain. After all, if you don't have money, forget it. Who with money would be willing to watch their daughter die.

"Uncle Niu! Uncle Niu!"

Hearing this vague shout, everyone turned around and looked towards the entrance of Qingshui Village. They vaguely saw three adults standing there holding a child, but they were too far away and could not see their faces clearly. .

Uncle Niu stopped the oxcart hesitantly and said to Zhang Yunniang: "There are quite a few people from your village going to the town today."

Zhang Yuniang heard the familiar voice and immediately knew that these people were her younger brother's family. Before she could think of how to stop her, the people in the car became unhappy and said, "Uncle Niu, see if there is room in this car. ? "Why are you still carrying people?"

When Zhang Yunniang got on the bus, she could still fit in the crowded bus, but now there is really no space at all.

Uncle Niu said with an honest face: "Just squeeze, and you will find your spot."

The country lady with a shrewd personality didn't suffer anything, so she attacked her on the spot and said: "Squeeze us wherever you go, just squeeze us all down! If you still want to pull people, then refund the money, I want to get off!"

"Yes, forget it if you are alone, but there are three or four people here. I am afraid of being squeezed down even when I am sitting halfway! Do you want to pay if I hit someone? Refund the money!"

The people in the car all talked loudly and expressed all their dissatisfaction.

Uncle Niu was so upset by their quarrel that he could only say helplessly: "Okay, okay, I'm no longer a good person!"

After saying that, he didn't care about the Zhang family members who were driving towards them. He waved his whip and the ox cart started heading towards the town.

The three adults and one child in the distance were overjoyed when they saw the bullock cart stopped. It takes an hour to walk from Qingshui Village to the nearest town, and it only takes half an hour to ride on the bullock cart. The adults were okay, but the little kid Jinbao kept shouting. "It hurts", not to mention how distressed it is for several adults.

They hugged their children and hurried towards the bullock cart, but before they took two steps, the bullock cart suddenly moved again.

The whole family looked at this situation, and everyone was anxious. Zhang Guangzong didn't even care about the scholar's elegance, and shouted as he ran: "Uncle Niu, wait a minute, we haven't gotten in the car yet!"

But Uncle Niu acted as if he didn't hear anything this time, and cracked the whip a few more times under the urging of everyone.

Zhang Guangzong chased for a long time, and when he saw the bullock cart running further and further away, he was so angry that he couldn't help but wonder if Uncle Niu who was driving the cart was deliberately playing tricks on him. He was so angry that he kicked a clump of weeds on the side of the road. .

But the next second.

"ah!"

Zhang Guangzong jumped up on the spot holding his right foot. He didn't see clearly just now, and kicked the tip of a stone hidden in the grass. He felt a heartbreaking pain in his big toe.

Little Cai held Jinbao with one hand and supported Mrs. Cai with the other. It was already very hard to support her, and she expected Zhang Guangzong to help, but she didn't expect that her good husband would get into trouble faster. At this time, she covered her feet and performed the golden rooster independence, which was very satisfying. His face was twisted in pain.

The bullock cart had already gone far, and they had no choice but to support each other and slowly walk toward the town.

The spot where Mrs. Cai hit her forehead was still aching. Thinking of the bad luck that had happened throughout the day, she felt that all these bad luck were brought about by Niu Niu. She asked fiercely: "Have you found a home for that broom star?"

Zhang Guangzong didn't say anything. He was never willing to expose himself to these dirty things.

Little Cai replied: "Mom, my husband and I have inquired around. The youngest son of Wang Yuan's wife died yesterday, and he just needs a little girl to match the ghost marriage. However, he has to see the person first and make up his mind to find a girl for his son. Good looking.”

Mrs. Cai curled her lips and said: "This girl can actually marry into such a good family. It's really an advantage for her. How much money can Mr. Wang pay if he is so picky?"

"Five taels of silver."

Mrs. Cai was very unhappy when she heard this and scolded Mr. Cai: "That's so little? We spent a lot of food to raise such a child! Didn't you bargain? I knew you were useless. You came in like this." I gave birth to a baby Jin Bao many years ago, and now I can't handle even this little thing!”

Although Little Cai is Granny Cai's niece, her status in this family is not high. She explained to her mother-in-law with a sigh of relief: “It's been a dry year and the price of food is high, so we in Qingshui Village, with Daqing Mountain at our back, can live a decent life. People outside They can't live anymore, there are people selling their children and girls everywhere, and no living person can be sold at a high price, let alone the dead.”

Mrs. Cai was still very dissatisfied, and she blamed Xiao Cai for not being able to do things.

Little Cai turned her head and glanced at her husband, but Zhang Guangzong just limped forward, as if he had not heard these words.

The ox cart drove on the country road for half an hour and finally arrived at the town. Before getting off the car, Zhang Yunniang touched Niu Niu's forehead out of habit. She was stunned for a moment, then grabbed her cousin's sleeve and said, "Aunt, you Help me touch this child's forehead. Is the fever gone?”

My cousin had touched Niu Niu's forehead before, and she suddenly looked surprised and said: "Yun Niang, this child is really well-behaved. Her fever went away as soon as she arrived in town. This is to save you money. You really need to go to the hospital. I don't know how much money it will cost!”
