Jin Huijuan's aunt was finally scolded by Mr. Jin and jumped into the river. But at this time, Mr. Jin nodded calmly and said, "There is still time left, so don't teach rashly. But you can't enter the ancestral grave."
So the poor aunt was buried in the mountains in a thin coffin. Neither the old or new husband's family allowed her to be buried in the ancestral grave, let alone the Jin family.
Since then, Jin's reputation as a chaste and fierce woman has spread. The lintel of the Jin family was painted with a flash of blood red.
And not long after, another girl from the Jin family earned the Jin family a reputation as a virtuous person, making the red on the lintel even more dazzling. This is Jin Huijuan's aunt.
Both were young and widowed, and the Jin family's aunt's situation seemed to be slightly better than that of her great aunt. After all, she has a son by her side.
But raising a young child alone is a difficult task for a young and widowed woman with no permanent property, no income, no hands to lift a basket, and no shoulders to carry a load.
A widow and her children are not engaged in childbirth, so they can only be regarded as idlers in the husband's family. Who is willing to take out the rice in his bowl to feed other people's wives and children?
Her husband's family has a group of uncles and uncles, so her parents-in-law will not feel much sorry for her, a person with a foreign surname who has lost her husband. Even if she is sent away with a piece of land, others still need to say that her parents-in-law are loving.
She was the only one among the sisters-in-law who had no one to support her, so she naturally had to be bullied in everything. Even the thin piece of land that she was unable to cultivate became the favoritism of her parents-in-law, surrounded by tigers and wolves, and she was constantly thinking about it.
Aunt Jin's family was originally educated and literate in her parents' family, and she was pampered. Now I have to go to the fields to work on my little feet every day. But even a month of hard work is not as good as what other men can do in two days. If a tenant is hired to farm the land, and the land is so thin, there will be little left in the year's harvest after the wages are taken away.
What's more, there are also natural disasters such as drought and floods. I often work hard for a year but still don't have enough to eat.
It was not that she had never thought about remarrying with her son, but when she thought of what would happen to the Jin family aunt, she was immediately frightened, and in the end she could only grit her teeth and endure.
When Jin Huijuan was a child, she often saw her aunt and her cousin come home to borrow food with tears in their eyes. Her eyebrows were lowered and her spine seemed to have been broken by the hard days and she could not stand straight up.
Her cousin secretly told her that every morning his mother would go to his father's grave in the back mountain to cry before going to the fields. He wanted to help his mother, but her mother wouldn't let her go, saying that only by studying hard and becoming successful in the future would he be able to overcome all the hardships.
All the bitterness seems to have been tasted, but the sweetness may not come. Aunt Jin's head was full of white hair before she was thirty, and she looked haggard, just like a sixty-year-old woman. At the age of thirty-two, the fuel ran out and the lamp dried up, and he passed away.
Although his son was raised well, he was just a mediocre person, and he never became successful. But Aunt Jin died of exhaustion and torture early on.
She must have said so in a loud voice that day when she closed her eyes, but she couldn't worry about her son after all. But I can take a good rest...
Aunt Jin was not as tragic as her great aunt, just like the widow of millions of ordinary people in Qi, but it made the people around her who had watched her life even more frightened and shuddered.
It was a kind of slow suffering, dark despair, and never-ending devastation.
Jin Huijuan and Mrs. Jin were the two viewers who sat in the front row and saw it most vividly. They saw clearly all her misery and despair, and felt the same pain as if they were piercing their skin.
That's why she resists the identity of "widow" like a frightened bird. It was this fear that made Jin Huijuan decide to remain silent and willing to commit herself to the thieves. Let Mrs. Jin close her eyes and listen, and not find out whether it is true or false.
They are all afraid that they will lose their support and be alone in the world, living a lonely life. I am afraid that I will be trampled under the iron hooves of fate from now on, that I will be trampled on thousands of times and never stand up.
Yan Tian slowly closed his eyes. This is the sorrow of women! It was also because she had been unwilling to be angry since she was a child!
But the Jin mother and daughter pretended to be deaf and dumb, but they also put a sharp knife hanging over their heads!
She was still too conservative with Qin Zhuen before. If the truth is really revealed in the future, how could Father Jin not do anything now? Instead, He will do great things!
In order to protect the family style from being tainted by Jin Huijuan, he will probably be the first person to force her to die! Only by "dying to prove one's will" can we prove that we had no knowledge at the time, that we were completely despondent afterwards, that we can preserve the reputation of a martyr woman, and that we will not tarnish the lintel of their Jin family...
Father is right! This matter is like a poisonous sore, which will eventually break out. Jin Huijuan will die then! She wants to save Jin Huijuan! It's now before it's too late!
When Yan Tian returned to her room, Jin and her daughter were already extremely anxious. When he saw her coming back, he immediately stood up and said goodbye in a hurry, wanting to leave right away.
"Huijuan!" Yan Tian quickly grabbed Le Huijuan's hand and did not let her get out of the room. She looked directly into Jin Huijuan's eyes and asked, "Have you ever thought about how you will deal with yourself if this matter is exposed in the future?"
As soon as the words came out this time, both Jin's mother and daughter were shocked.
Jin Huijuan's eyes were very complicated for a moment, and she looked at Yan Tian without saying a word.
"Haha, what kind of revelation? Miss Yan, you are really, really more and more humorous." Jin Fu laughed twice, walked over and took Jin Huijuan's other hand, "Let's go!"
Yan Tian did not let go, but held on tighter: "Madam, it's not irreversible yet! But if you really commit yourself to a thief and are exposed later, then... Madam feels that given the Jin family's family style, Huijuan What will be the end of it?"
Mrs. Jin was obviously shaken, but then she seemed to be heartbroken and said sternly: "Miss Yan, don't be alarmist! What is 'committing yourself to a thief'?! The young master of the Ye family is really back after resurrecting his body! Huijuan doesn't need to Isn’t Miss Yan unhappy about being a widow?
"If Huijuan becomes a widow and has no children, then her life will be ruined! You are a young girl, so of course you don't know what 'a widow has a lot of right and wrong in front of her'. That means that every step you take will lead to a mistake, and a step back will lead to everything wrong." Right and wrong, a person who can kill people with spitting! Even if he acts upright and sits upright, he can cause trouble for nothing! What's more, as a woman, who will she rely on for her future livelihood and food and clothing?
"But now that Young Master Ye is back, it is a blessing from God! From now on, Huijuan will have someone to rely on for the rest of her life and will be spared all kinds of suffering in this world! Therefore, this Young Master Ye is Young Master Ye! He is 'back' I won’t ‘go back’ again!”
Mrs. Jin's tone suddenly became more serious at the end, and her eyes towards Yan Tian were full of warning and meaningful.
Yan Tian held Jin Huijuan's hand tightly and closed her eyes. Mrs. Jin's road is blocked. She is determined to prevent Jin Huijuan from becoming a widow!
"What about you, Huijuan? Do you really think that this 'Ye Jinxian' is the husband you have been in love with for nearly a year?" Yan Tian turned to stare at Jin Huijuan.
"What did Miss Yan say..."
Yan Tian did not pay attention to Mrs. Jin, but said aggressively: "Although we were newly married and have been together for less than a year, those sweet loves, those ear-to-eye chats, and those intimate moments all happened in real life.
"You will know some of Ye Jinxian's little known habits better than others. Did you really not see any flaws? Don't you have any doubts at all?
"Anyone who is good at acting in this world will inadvertently reveal his true nature, his preferences for good and evil. Do you really not care at all? Can you really accept an unrelated person with all your heart?"
"No, no..." Jin Huijuan's face was flushed at this moment, as if she had a fever and was sweating profusely. Her eyes dodged when she spoke, and she stepped back, but was firmly held by Yan Tian and could not retreat.
"Miss Yan is a girl who has not yet left the government. Don't you feel ashamed to say such a thing?!"
Mrs. Jin was so anxious that she pulled Jin Huijuan and said cruel words. The original intention was to shame Yan Tian and make her retreat in shame. However, Yan Tian remained unmoved, and held Jin Huijuan's hand with so much strength that the Jin mother and daughter could not break free.
"Huijuan, can you do that? Will you really fall in love with someone else less than a month after your husband's death? Treat an unrelated person as your husband who stays with you day and night?
"I don't care about his ugly appearance and short stature? I don't care about his previous background or whether he is married? I don't even care about his nature. Will he suddenly reveal his true colors when the time is right in the future? Will he be a violent person?
"To be together like this for the rest of our lives? We even fell in love with him, gave birth to children for him, raised them as Ye Jinxian's flesh and blood, and inherited the Ye family's wealth..."
"No!" Before Yan Tian could finish speaking, Jin Huijuan finally collapsed completely. She yelled, pushed Yan Tian away, and squatted on the ground holding her head.
"Juan'er! Juan'er!" Mrs. Jin was immediately frightened out of her wits and hurriedly knelt down to help him.
"Huijuan!" Yan Tian was also startled, knowing that he had pushed hard, and hurriedly stepped forward to take a look, but Mrs. Jin waved her away.
"Don't worry, Miss Yan!" Mrs. Jin gritted her teeth, "Please stay away from us, Juan'er can live a few more days!"
Unexpectedly, before Mrs. Jin finished speaking, she saw Jin Huijuan suddenly raised her head and looked at Yan Tian, her face full of tears and her eyes red and bloody.
"He...no, not..."
"Juan'er!" Mrs. Jin suddenly raised her tone, full of warning.
Jin Huijuan visibly shrank and lost her voice again.
Yan Tian was so anxious that he ignored Mrs. Jin's angry warning and stepped forward to stare at Huijuan: "Why isn't he? What did you find?"
"He...he..." Jin Huijuan was forced to look directly into Yan Tian's eyes, her expression frantic and confused, "He used his right hand..."
"Miss Yan! Are you trying to force Juan'er to death?!" Mrs. Jin suddenly interrupted loudly. Like a mother animal protecting her cubs, she burst into flames. She pushed Yan Tian away again, stood up and went to pull her daughter. "Let's go home!"
Jin Huijuan was forced to stand up, but she didn't want to lose her balance. She staggered twice and then fell to the ground.
"Juan'er..."
"Huijuan..."
Mrs. Jin and Yan Tian shouted at the same time.
…
The doctor came over quickly and carefully took Jin Huijuan's pulse three times on each hand. Then he stood up and held his hands in congratulations with a smile on his face.
Jin Huijuan is pregnant! It’s been more than two months!
Upon hearing the news, Yan Tian felt a stone fall in his heart, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief. In this way, things will be much easier to handle!
Yan Tian didn't waste any more words. She looked at Mrs. Jin who was sitting in front of the bed wiping her tears and asked: "Madam, do you think the current 'Ye Jinxian' can tolerate this child?"
After hearing this, Mrs. Jin paused and raised her eyes to look at Yan Tian. Their eyes met. Finally, she could not withstand the pressure and covered her face with a handkerchief and burst into tears.
Yan Tian continued: "Everyone in the world says that wealth is charming. Madam, guess, if it were to monopolize the Ye family's wealth, I wonder what evil intentions the fake Ye Jinxian might have towards Huijuan and her son in the future? After all, a woman goes to hell to give birth to a child. , but if the mother and son are allowed to die without return, it will be a piece of cake for 'Huijuan's husband' and 'father of the child'!"
Mrs. Jin's cries stopped suddenly and were all stuck in her throat. She looked at Yan Tian again, with a look of horror on her face. Yan Tian knew that Mrs. Jin had already anticipated all the consequences.
"Husband... I actually like to use my left hand when holding chopsticks." Jin Huijuan woke up on the bed at some point. She stretched out her hand to gently caress her belly. Apparently she had heard the conversation just now and knew that she was pregnant. Being a mother means being strong, and now the child in her belly is her life.
"But my parents-in-law forced me to use my right hand since I was a child. Therefore, my husband always uses his right hand in front of his parents-in-law or when there are foreign guests.
"But whenever he is alone or with me, he will naturally switch the chopsticks to his left hand. In fact, he did not even notice this habit. He only noticed it after I reminded him. He said to me at that time , this is called 'husband and wife becoming one', because they are extremely comfortable in front of me..."
Jin Huijuan seemed to remember the sweet times of the past and couldn't help but smile. But the smile disappeared suddenly before it fully bloomed on his face.
"Everyone had breakfast together that day. There was nothing wrong with him holding chopsticks with his right hand. But he ate a lot and took a long time. Later, my parents-in-law couldn't wait any longer, so they ran to kowtow incense to their ancestors, crying and laughing, and left I'll wait for him to eat next.
"There were only two of us in the room at that time, but he still held the chopsticks with his right hand and did not switch to his left hand as before... I knew he was not the husband..."
Yan Tian breathed a sigh of relief. Mrs. Jin on the side just lowered her eyes and wiped her tears without saying a word.
Nowadays, no supporter is as reliable as this child. The members of the Ye family have withered away, leaving Ye Jinxian alone. Jin Huijuan doesn't have any uncles or uncles. As long as she gives birth to her child safely, her life will be much easier than that of her aunt.
The Jin family's mother and daughter were finally explained to each other. Mrs. Jin sent a letter back to Ye and Jin's family, saying that Jin Huijuan would return to Ye's house tomorrow. Secretly, other arrangements were made.
Everything is ready now, just waiting for the start.
