In a village like Baitang Village, there are less than two hundred households in total.

There are several common surnames in the village, and every household is related to each other, and they are closely related.

Chen Dongqing's husband is Zhao Er, the son of Li Zhao's elder brother, who is eight years older than Li Sanlang, and he is called cousin.

When Li Sanlang went back, he was in a mess, which made Li Zhaoshi very distressed.

After he changed his clothes and told Li Zhaoshi what happened just now, Li Zhaoshi was trembling with anger.

She dared not say anything to Bai Shu, but Chen Dongqing was her nephew's daughter-in-law.How dare he turn his elbow outward to help Bai Shu deal with his son?

If she didn't show him some color, she would have lived in vain for so many years!

Li Zhao immediately went to find her natal sister-in-law, Zhao Er's own mother.

Li Zhao married a scholar and gave birth to a son of a scholar. Among the brothers and sisters of the Zhao family, speaking naturally has some weight.

As soon as she arrived at her brother's house, she cried out about Zhao's second daughter-in-law's evil deeds with snot and tears.

When talking about Chen Dongqing's excrement, he even gritted his teeth and said: "Your second daughter-in-law is just a brother. When she married, she was poor and without a dowry. Besides, he has only had one brother for so many years, not even a son. Not born."

"He didn't give credit to our Zhao family, and he didn't work hard. Now he has a big temper, helping outsiders deal with his own cousin, and he doesn't take our Zhao family seriously."

Zhao Er's mother-in-law was also very angry when she heard Li Zhaoshi's words.

She didn't like the second child in the family very much, otherwise, it would be impossible to divide his three acres of Susukida and let him marry a brother.

She didn't like Chen Dongqing, her daughter-in-law even more.

He was usually clumsy with his tongue, he couldn't fart loudly with three sticks, and he didn't know how to say a few words to please her.And just like what Li Zhao said, after being married for many years, they can't even have a son.

Now that Li Zhaoshi has sued her, Zhao Er's mother-in-law feels that it is time to beat her own daughter-in-law.

So he found his own son and taught him a lesson in front of Li Zhaoshi.

Zhao Er is a coward, and was scolded by his mother and Li Zhaoshi without saying a word.

But when he thought that all the grievances he had suffered were because of Chen Dongqing, his daughter-in-law, he gritted his teeth with hatred.Secretly clenched his fists, and when he returned home, he must give him a good lesson.

·

Bai Shu still remembered the beating face of the man in Chen Dongqing's family, but he didn't expect that Li Sanlang had such a relationship with him.

"Brother Dongqing? Don't be afraid. I'll go back with you in a while. I don't think that person would dare to do anything to you." Bai Shu said.Chen Dongqing offended Li Sanlang for him, so he definitely couldn't just leave him alone.

"Forget it. Don't worry about it." Chen Dongqing said with a gloomy face: "If you can help me, you won't be able to help me for a while. This is my family matter, and I can't hide from it. At worst, I will go back and suffer two broomsticks. Besides, I am now After making money, he hasn't hit me very much recently."

Hearing what Chen Dongqing said, Bai Shu naturally couldn't force his way.

In fact, Chen Dongqing has changed a lot during these days.

But his deep-rooted thinking is not so easy to change, so Bai Shu no longer insists, just waiting for him to figure it out slowly.

But in the end, he still said to him: "You should think about it, if he beats you again, you just come to me, and I can always help you."

Chen Dongqing complied, and picked manure again.

After fertilizing the three acres of land, he checked the conditions in the field before putting away his tools and returning home.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw his husband, Zhao Er, sitting on the bed at home with a gloomy expression.

"Kneel down!" Zhao Er burst out when he saw Chen Dongqing.

Chen Dongqing was so frightened that she shuddered all over, and knelt down on a reflex.

Since Chen Dongqing married into Zhao's family, except for the few days when she just passed the family, she has been beaten by Zhao Er almost every other day.

At the beginning, Chen Dongqing also cried and resisted, but after this, Zhao Er beat him even more fiercely, and Zhao's mother-in-law and father-in-law also helped Zhao Er to accuse him.

Unable to bear it any longer, Chen Dongqing finally ran back to her mother's house a month later.In the end, he was reprimanded by his family instead, saying that Zhao Er beat him because he must have done something wrong.

Even his own mother told him that since he is a brother, it is good to be able to marry someone. To make his husband like him, he must work harder than ordinary people.

Over time, Chen Dongqing was brainwashed by a group of people in turn, and gave up again, so she felt that it was right for her to be beaten, and she no longer resisted.

Soon after, he became pregnant with Li'er...

When she was just pregnant, Zhao Er treated him a little better. Not only did he beat him less, but he also bought him eggs to eat.

Zhao Er treated him a little better, and Chen Dongqing felt grateful.I also felt in my heart that Zhao Er was not bad.If you give birth to a boy yourself, life will be easier in the future.

But things didn't go his way. Chen Dongqing only gave birth to a brother when she became pregnant in October.

On the day Li'er was born, Zhao Er changed his face.

The hens that were ready to give birth to milk were also sold, and Chen Dongqing was dragged off the bed and beaten severely that day.Before confinement, Chen Dongqing was ordered to work in the field.

Chen Dongqing fell ill during confinement, and after being with Zhao Er for many years, she failed to conceive a child.

Gradually, Zhao Er also gave up his mind and stopped touching him. The food at home was exchanged for money and he used it to buy wine and drink.

He even beat and scolded Chen Dongqing, and even beat him and Li'er after drinking too much.

That is to say, when Chen Dongqing made money recently, Zhao Er's attitude became better.

Although his temper is still very strong, he doesn't beat and scold him and Li'er much anymore.

It's just that Chen Dongqing made money, and Zhao Er took all of it.

He asked Zhao Er how much he had saved, and Zhao Er vaguely told him that there were more than 100 documents.

Chen Dongqing didn't say anything else, she just wanted to ask Zhao Er to buy a piece of land when there was more money.

When Li'er gets married, giving him that piece of land will also make Li'er's life easier in the future.

Holding a pot of wine in his hand, Zhao stared at Chen Dongqing viciously, raised his head and took a sip.

Before Chen Dongqing arrived home, he had been drinking for a long time. Now his face was reddish and he smelled of alcohol. He got up and grabbed a broom in the corner and walked to Chen Dongqing.

Chen Dongqing was trembling all over at this time, and she didn't dare to say a word when she was nervous.

Past experience told him that the more he talked, the more vicious Zhao Er became.It's better to grit your teeth and bear it, let him fight enough, and it's over.

The broom at home was made by Chen Dongqing herself. One end is a rice stalk and the other is a bamboo pole as thick as a child's arm.

When Zhao Er hit him, he didn't use the end of the rice pole, but turned it upside down, and swung it down vigorously with the bamboo pole.

After drinking, he was angry again, and his subordinates did not hold back, and beat him head and face.

After a while, Chen Dongqing's head swelled up into a big lump, which was hot and numb. He buried his head down, and his back was already numb from the pumping.

It's just that after being beaten like this, Chen Dongqing still didn't dare to say a word, and could only grit her teeth and bear it silently.

I couldn't stop thinking in my head, hurry up and fight, and pass after the fight.When he went to the county to sell the medicine tomorrow and exchanged for more money, Zhao Er's anger would disappear.

"Stinky bitch, you're killing me!" Zhao Er muttered indistinctly, and he didn't forget to thrust the bamboo pole into Chen Dongqing's body.

He used too much force this time, making Chen Dongqing's mind go blank, and he couldn't help but let out a muffled snort.

"Fuck!" Zhao Er yelled and cursed, and threw the broom in his hand.Chen Dongqing looked over weakly from the corner of his eye, and it turned out that the bamboo poles had all been broken.

Without the tools to hit people, Zhao Er switched to kicking with his feet.

After Chen Dongqing came back, he had been playing for more than half an hour, and he was a little tired.Just sit down and take a rest, drink a few sips of wine, and continue to work after resting.

At the end of the drink, Zhao Er was probably stupefied and started talking nonsense, cursing at Chen Dongqing: "If it weren't for the fact that you are still useful, I would have divorced you a long time ago. When I have saved enough money, I will buy another The woman came back and gave me a big fat son."

These words made Chen Dongqing sober, he raised his head, and said to Zhao Er: "That's money for buying land for Li'er, you can't touch it!"

Zhao Er looked sullen, and kicked Chen Dongqing on the head again: "A brother still wants to buy land, it's a dream! I won't give him a dime."

"That's the money I earned!" Chen Dongqing couldn't bear it any longer when it came to Li'er, and shouted at Zhao Er.

"So what do you earn! Even you are mine, and the money you earn is also mine! I can use it as I want!" After speaking, he still felt that it was not enough to relieve his anger, and kicked Chen again. on Holly.

Chen Dongqing lay on the ground, her heart was icy cold.

He got up to work before dawn, farming and collecting herbs, just to earn two more money and give Li'er a guarantee.

But that bastard Zhao Er... he even said that he would not spend a penny on Li'er, and he would sell him!

At this time, Zhao Er had already beaten Chen Dongqing for more than an hour, and it was getting dark.

The children in the village came back from playing, and Li'er opened the door to enter the house, and saw Chen Dongqing kneeling on the ground, while his father was sitting by the bed with a jug of wine, a little drunk.

Li'er is most afraid of Zhao Er drinking alcohol. In the past, whenever he drank alcohol, he would beat himself and his father.

But these days, Zhao Er didn't beat them anymore, and his attitude has improved a lot.

He felt that his father had become better, and he was not so afraid of him, so he ran over and pulled Zhao Er's sleeve and said, "Daddy, it's getting dark and I'm hungry, let daddy get up and cook!"

"You lose money! You only know what to eat!" Zhao Er's eyes were clouded, and he looked at Li'er with a gloomy look: "It's you, a useless thing! It made me laugh! Why don't you die Already!"

As he spoke, he kicked Lier's head violently, sending him flying, hitting the wall with a loud bang.

"Li'er—" Chen Dongqing screamed and rushed over.

Li'er fell to the ground, being called by Chen Dongqing's name, she opened her eyes in a daze, only called "Daddy" and then vomited.

Chen Dongqing touched his head, and under his hand was a bag the size of an egg.

After Li'er vomited for a while, she closed her eyes and passed out.

·

It is summer now, and the weather is very muggy.

In the open space outside the house, a large group of dragonflies were flying low in the sky.

When Bai Zhu returned home, she was sweaty and had no appetite.

He simply made some grilled fish, and after eating, he started doing push-ups.

Since the time travel, as long as he has time, Baishu will take a little time to train every day.

It's just that I don't know what's going on with my brother's body.He practiced a lot, but he didn't build much muscle.

After such a long time, only a thin layer of muscle has grown on his arms and lower abdomen, which is far behind his previous vigorous figure.

As I practiced, the window lighted up, and a silver electric python streaked across the sky, turning the clouds into dark purple.

Immediately afterwards, there was rumbling thunder, from far to near, overshadowing one after another.

Bai Zhu opened the door, a gust of cool wind came, and he could smell the strong smell of green grass in the air.

It's going to rain, Bai Shu looked at the sky, and was thinking, the big raindrops had fallen one by one, densely packed, and a layer of water mist was thrown in the yard.

With such a heavy rain, I don't know if Chen Dongqing's family has harvested the herbs, Bai Shu thought.

If it is confiscated, I am afraid that this batch of herbs will be ruined tomorrow.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, splashing half of Bai Zhu's clothes.He turned and closed the door, and walked inside.

It was thanks to him that he had repaired the roof in advance, otherwise the house would have been flooded after such a heavy rain.

At this moment, boom boom boom, there was a loud knock on the door.

At this time, who will come to look for it?Bai Zhu opened the door with some surprise.

Someone was standing at the door with a child in his arms. His whole body was drenched by the rain, his face was colorful, bruised and purple, and his original shape could not be seen.

"Baishu..." He said hoarsely, "Help...help..."

Only then did Bai Shu realize that the person in front of him was Chen Dongqing!

"Come in! How did you become like this!" Bai Shu hurriedly pulled Chen Dongqing into the room.

After Chen Dongqing came in, he sat on the ground weakly, still hugging the child and not letting go, and said tremblingly: "Help...help! Please help me find Mr. Xie to borrow a carriage! I'm going to the county to see a doctor. Li'er...Li'er is not good..."

Li'er was held in Chen Dongqing's arms, her arms and legs drooped, and she hasn't moved a bit until now.

Bai Shu's heart sank, and she quickly reached out to touch it.

The child was probably drenched by the rain, and it was cold.Fortunately, his breath was still warm and stable, so Bai Zhu heaved a sigh of relief.

"Let's go! Let's go there now." After Bai Shu finished speaking, he dug out some clothes from the cabinet and wrapped Li'er up.

He took another bamboo hat and put it on his head, took the grain from Chen Dongqing's hand, and ran out with him.

Bai Shu has a lot of strength, and her footsteps are also fast. Although Chen Dongqing has no strength, but for the sake of Li'er, she desperately gritted her teeth and followed behind.

After a while, they arrived at the door of Xie's house.

Bai Shu knocked twice, and the door of Xie's house opened.

Seeing that it was him, the gatekeeper immediately invited him in.

Bai Shu talked to the concierge a few words, but didn't go in, so she sat with Chen Dongqing under the eaves of the door and waited.

At this time, most of the servants of the Xie family had finished their day's work and went back to rest.

On a rainy day, Bai Zhu made a lot of noise at the door.They had nothing to do, so they ran over to watch.

Lin Shuyu was sitting in the room when she heard movement outside.

When he opened the window, he heard two young servants talking, saying that Brother Bai had come and was waiting outside with a child in his arms. Even the Young Master was alarmed and was rushing to the door.

Lin Shuyu raised her eyebrows, immediately put on some clothes and went out.

He wanted to go over and see what this Mr. Xie looked like.

When he came to the corridor near the door, Lin Shuyu stopped walking a little distance from the door.He didn't bring an umbrella, he would get wet in the heavy rain from here to the door.

So he just stood far away, tiptoeing and watching, wanting to see where Mr. Xie was.

As a result, he looked around, but he didn't see anyone who looked like the young master, so he couldn't help but think that it was probably those two boys who were talking nonsense.

What kind of person is Mr. Xie, how could he run out for the brother who delivered the fish himself.

Thinking of this, Lin Shuyu turned around, ready to go back.

As a result, before he could react, he saw a person walking towards here in a hurry not far away.

The man was wearing a crow-blue uniform, his hair was pulled back in a bun, and a white jade hairpin was inserted.

His long eyebrows flew obliquely into his temples, his eyes were like peach blossoms, his nose was high and straight, and his temperament was as tall as green bamboos in the mountains.

He passed by Lin Shuyu without looking sideways, with a faint smell of rosin on his body.

Lin Shuyu looked at his back in a daze, and saw Xiaoshu chasing after him, and panting after him, said: "Master, slow down. Don't forget to take the umbrella."

It turned out that this was Mr. Xie.Lin Shuyu didn't come back to his senses for a long time, but he was a little crazy.

When he was still the young master who was loved by thousands of people, he also imagined that he could find a handsome man with outstanding temperament.As a result, he doesn't even look down on those dudes who came to propose marriage in Beijing.

If he said what a suitable husband in his mind would look like, it would probably be like the young master of the Xie family.

He only took one look at Xie Huaiyu, and felt that his appearance seemed to have come out of his mind.

·

Xie Huaiyu took the umbrella from Xiaoshu and walked to Baishu.

He heard someone report that Bai Shu came to borrow a car with a child in his arms, and was completely drenched.My heart sank at the moment, and I rushed over immediately.

When Mrs. Bai Li gave birth last time, Bai Shu also came to borrow a car.

That time, Bai Li was not rescued. Although Bai Shu didn't say anything, he was in a low mood for the next few days.

Xie Huaiyu knew that Bai Shu was kind-hearted, so he was probably sad.

So this time, as soon as he heard about Bai Shu's situation, he couldn't wait to come over and take a look.

Bai Shu was holding a four or five-year-old child in his arms, and was drenched like a soaked chicken. When he saw him coming, he said, "Hurry up, it's raining too much, don't get you wet."

"It's okay." Xie Huaiyu said, "I'm holding an umbrella."

After saying that, he moved the umbrella to Bai Zhu's head to cover him from the raindrops drifting around him, half of his body was wet.

Xiao Shu rolled his eyes from the side, and covered his young master's head with an umbrella, letting the rain mercilessly drench him thoroughly.

His young master was bewildered, and he wanted to treat this little brother Bai wholeheartedly.Even a servant like him can't be persuaded, so he can only do what he wants.

The carriage was harnessed and drove over from behind the house.

It was raining and thunder was playing, and the horse was not very obedient.Fortunately, the driver of Xie's family was an experienced driver. He put a blindfold on the horse and plugged his ears, and forced the horse out of the car.

"Get in the car." Xie Huaiyu personally lifted the curtain, and Bai Shu carried the child, and went up with Chen Dongqing one after the other.

He just sat down firmly, but Xie Huaiyu also sat up and sat down beside Bai Shu.

"Why are you here, go back quickly." Bai Shu was about to drive Xie Huaiyu away.

But when Xie Huaiyu stretched out his hand, his sleeve was on Bai Shu's hand.

"I'll accompany you there." He said without doubt.

Under the sleeve, where the part was blocked, Xie Huaiyu's warm palm covered Bai Zhu's hand and held it firmly.

Bai Shu immediately calmed down and nodded, her heart was so warm that it was about to melt.

After Xiaoshu also boarded the car, the car started slowly.

Sitting opposite Bai Shu, Chen Dongqing stretched out his hand and said, "Bai Shu, you have worked so hard for so long, give me a hug."

Bai Shu handed the child to him, and Chen Dongqing nervously hugged Li'er in his arms, and gently wiped the raindrops on his forehead with his hands one after another.

Xiaoshu was sitting next to Chen Dongqing. He looked at this brother carefully and felt a little surprised.

This brother used to come to deliver fish with Bai Zhu, he had seen it many times.

It's just that when he came here before, although he looked inconspicuous, he was just ordinary, so how could he be as scary as now.

This guy's face was swollen, and he looked beyond recognition.There was probably blood coming out of it, both of his eye sockets were blue and purple, and the whites of his eyes were still blood red.

Look at his hand holding the child again, where the sleeves are rolled up, there are several purple footprints that are clearly visible.

Xiao Shu couldn't help but asked, "Brother, who beat you like this?"

When he asked, Chen Dongqing's hand holding Li'er trembled slightly, and couldn't stop crying.

Seeing him so sad, Bai Shu felt very emotional in his heart, and said angrily: "Who else is there, it's just a beast!"

"Xiaoshu, don't ask any more questions." Xie Huaiyu said and gave Xiaoshu a look.

Xiao Shu closed his mouth and stopped talking.Only some sympathy looked at Chen Dongqing who was crying.

On rainy nights, the carriage also drove a little slower, and the county town, which could be reached in half an hour in the past, took a full hour longer.

The medical clinic in the county had already closed, and Bai Shu and the others knocked on the door for a long time before opening the door.

Fortunately, the doctor in the medical center was familiar with Bai Zhu and the others, and when he heard that Chen Dongqing's son was in trouble, he quickly invited him in, and kindly put him on his bed.

The doctor checked Li'er's pulse for a while, felt the wound on the back of the head, and administered a few needles. After a while, a bowl of blood was discharged from the eye of the needle.

The doctor squeezed out the congestion, and prescribed another medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and another medicine for nourishing and tranquilizing the mind.

Then he said to Chen Dongqing: "Brother Chen, don't worry. Now that the blood congestion has been drained, Lingzi's life is no longer in danger, only the head is concussed, and she vomits and passes out."

"You take this medicine back home and take the blood-activating and stasis-removing medicine first. It will be decocted three times in the morning and evening. After the medicine is finished, then take the nourishing and tranquilizing medicine, and let him rest for a few more days, and it will be fine."

Only then did Chen Dongqing feel relieved, thanked the doctor thankfully, and wanted to pay his consultation fee again.

The eldest lady was very nice, and said that since she was acquainted with Chen Dongqing, she would waive his consultation fee, and it was only doing good deeds.

When Chen Dongqing heard it, she was both moved and grateful, and immediately knelt down, kowtowed to the doctor, and thanked him for his great kindness to Li'er.

After kowtowing, he turned around and kowtowed three times to Bai Shu and Xie Huaiyu who were beside him.

Bai Shu hurried to help him, but Chen Dongqing didn't get up, and only said in Xie Huaiyu's direction: "I was able to save Li'er this time, thanks to the great kindness of you and Bai Shu! I owe you all, and I, Chen Dongqing, are willing to help him." The rest of my life will be a cow and a horse to repay!"

He spoke with sincerity, and even the little tree beside him was a little moved, and his eyes turned red.

Xie Huaiyu said indifferently: "My Xie family has cattle and horses, and there is no shortage of manpower. How can I use you as cattle and horses? I borrowed your carriage, but it is because of Baishu's face. You owe me Favors, he will repay them."

After finishing speaking, he paused and said: "If you really want to thank, you can just thank Bai Shu alone. It is your blessing to know him."

Xie Huaiyu's words put all the credit on Bai Shu.

Bai Shu was standing with him right now, looking sideways at him, meeting his gaze.

Bai Shu's hand felt slightly hot, and the little finger was actually hooked.

He blushed and looked left and right, only to find that Xiao Shu and the doctor were looking at Chen Dongqing intently, none of them focused on themselves.
