"It's winter and you're going to do laundry by the river?"
Du Wanchun came out of the house and happened to hear the woman's words, and couldn't help being surprised.
The woman nodded heavily, "Yes, when it gets cold in winter, we all use well water to wash our clothes, but the old lady disliked her for using the well water at home, so she drove her to the river to wash her clothes."
Other villagers also echoed: "Yes, not only these, Mrs. Miao has to do all the heavy work at home, but she doesn't have enough to eat. Look at this little girl, she is only about twenty-one or twelve years old. But he’s skinny and skinny.”
When Du Wanchun looked at Miao's injuries just now, he really didn't realize that she was only twenty-one or twelve years old. It was probably due to years of abuse, and she looked like she was in her thirties.
It's pitiful to say the least.
After thinking about it, she turned back and glanced into the room again.
Another one of the villagers said: "That old lady Gao doesn't farm the land herself, she lets her daughter-in-law do it, but she is not allowed to take charge of the family. Shopkeeper Du kindly gave us new rice seeds, but they not only didn't want it, but arranged it everywhere." Shopkeeper Du, you are so angry with Madam Miao because of this, you are really ignorant."
The new rice seeds Du Wanchun gave them were all from his own rice fields. As everyone knows, the rice grown from these seeds not only matures quickly, has larger grains, but also tastes better.
Their previous rice could only mature once a year. It took a long time and the rice grains were small. The cooked rice was not only not fragrant, but also hard. ?.?????.???
Therefore, all the villagers are willing to plant the rice seeds given by Du Wanchun. Only the Gao family does not have access to oil and salt, for fear that others will take advantage of them.
Du Wanchun took his words and said with a smile: "That's all, if they don't want to, they don't want to."
When the villagers saw what she said, they once again lamented that Shopkeeper Du was really a kind and easy-to-talk person.
Although Du Wanchun didn't say anything on his face, when he got up to go out, his eyes inadvertently glanced coldly in the direction of the Gao family.
The old lady of the Gao family didn't care about the life or death of her daughter-in-law and grandson, and was waiting to marry her son another daughter-in-law.
The boss Gao was still laughing and hanging out with a beautiful woman from a neighboring village.
Du Wanchun turned around and went to the back kitchen. He followed the grandmother in the back kitchen to make some food for the children. Then he cooked some soup and porridge, packed it up and took it to the front yard.
In the side room in the front yard, Miao and the child woke up.
Doctor Xu quickly checked the pulse of the two of them, and then shouted with joy: "We are saved, they two are saved!"
Du Wanchun came over and asked, "Doctor Xu, how are they?"
Doctor Xu said with a smile: "Not only did their bleeding stop, but their pulses have also stabilized. If they take good care of their bones, there should be no major problems. God is really wise and allowed the mother and son to save their lives." "
Du Wanchun looked down at Miao who opened her eyes slightly and was still a little distracted, and felt happy in her heart.
The villagers outside the house breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that Miao mother and son were fine.
"Great, just say that Madam Miao has a kind heart and God will not treat her badly."
Just when everyone was happy, someone suddenly said: "This is a rescue, but what should we do in the future? The mother and son have returned to Gao's house, and they will continue to be beaten. There are many doctors today. If it happens in the future Doctor Xu is not here, who can save them?"
After hearing this, everyone fell silent again.
Miao, who was lying on the bed with injuries all over her body, shed tears with her red and swollen eyes after hearing this. Because she was too seriously injured, she could not speak or move, so she could only lie like this and shed tears.
Dr. Xu really couldn't stand it anymore, so he stood up and said, "If this is really the case, why not report it to the official? Boss Gao is already breaking the law by seducing his wife and children."
The villagers shook their heads and said, "No, if you go to the government, the most you can do is beat Mr. Gao dozens of times, or lock him up for ten days and a half. When he comes out, he will continue to be beaten."
"Before, Boss Gao's third wife went to the county government several times to file a lawsuit. Not only did she not let Boss Gao put it away, but she even made him get worse. In the end, he had to escape overnight."
"That woman has no children and can still escape. How can this Miao woman escape with a child?"
It was the sighing woman who said this.
Doctor Xu thought for a moment and then said: "No matter what, we can't let him do it again."
Du Wanchun stood up and said, "Why don't we let her live with me first, and then we can make plans after she recovers from her injuries."
