When several boys saw an adult approaching, they dispersed in fright. Zhao Xun hurriedly opened the courtyard door and went in to check the little boy's injury.
Fortunately, it was just a skin injury, but this boy had a hard life. His entire family had died one after another, and he had grown up on the food of hundreds of families in the past two years. He didn't even have a name, so he had to call the original owner his cousin.
"Gou Sheng, can you hear what my cousin is saying? Don't sleep. I'll take you home and give you some medicine. Once the bleeding stops, you'll be fine."
Holding the dog Sheng, who was as thin as a piece of paper, Zhao Xing hurried to the thatched house. The villagers he met on the road hid when they saw this scene. No matter how the dog Sheng's injuries were caused, they did not dare to get involved.
.
For a child without a father or a mother, the villagers are kind enough to provide him with food. In these days, everyone is tightening their belts to get by.
"Start!"
Returning to the thatched house, seeing Lin Yuan still lying on the bed pretending to be dead, Zhao Xun angrily kicked him over and shouted: "Go get a bucket of water, and then go to the village chief's house to tell him that Gou Sheng was beaten on the head by a boy in the village.
, ask him what to do.”
"Mom is very concerned about other people's children. I don't think you are so worried about your own grandchildren." Lin Yuan sneered.
"You, the father, don't care about their life or death. If I do, you will treat me like a dog and a mouse meddling in other people's business. I have lived in vain for so many years without developing a good memory."
Putting Gou Sheng down, Zhao Xun looked at Lin Yuan coldly, and was surprised to feel that Lin Yuan's fortune had changed again.
Not only were the peach blossoms more prosperous, but the bad luck was also stronger. However, the intertwining of fortunes made Zhao Xing temporarily unsure of the direction of his fortune.
But the first step of the revenge plan had begun. Zhao Xing wanted to force Lin Yuan to take another step forward, so he said mercilessly: "You are living a useless life, so you dare to act arrogant in front of me. If you do, I will count on you to support you in your old age."
It's your end, right? Today I have made it clear to you that I have fulfilled my duty as a mother by marrying you and having children.
You will go on your own in the future. At worst, I will spend money to buy two servants to serve you, and you will raise your children by yourself. Don’t treat me like this is a charity. Gou Sheng is the blood of our Zhao family, and you and your children all have the same surname.
Lin, even if you want to find someone to help you, you should go find someone named Lin."
"..." Lin Yuan was stunned. He heard Zhao Xing say this more than once, but this time he believed it.
The daughter-in-law took her children with her and took the money he gave her to date another man. Everyone knew about the trouble. Now even my mother doesn't recognize him. What does he, Lin Yuan, have left?
"You just deliberately made the matter so big. You just wanted to embarrass me and drive me away, right?"
"You are my biological mother. When my father and I separated, you insisted on keeping me. I am useless because you are incompetent in raising your son!"
Lin Yuan shouted hysterically at Zhao Xin, his eyes angry but unable to hide his panic.
As Zhao Xing said, Lin Yuan thought that no matter what he did, his mother would never abandon him, so he dared to do whatever he wanted, but why was the reality so cruel?
His biological father only visited once in a few years, and there was no affection at all. There was also a concubine born to his aunt, and he didn't even have a room when he went there.
Zhao Xing wiped the spit on her face, wiped it on her clothes in disgust, and sneered: "If I knew you would inherit your father's selfishness, I would rather give birth to you, a white-eyed wolf, in vain."
I worked hard to raise you."
"Did I force Li Yunjuan to do that with another man in broad daylight? Did I force you to take away a pair of children to Li Yunjuan? Did I force you to steal the family property to Li Yunjuan, or did I force you to do it?
Gambling houses borrow loan sharks at high interest rates?"
"Human, it's hard to admit that you've made a mistake. You have to say it's my fault. It just so happens that I've been exhausted these past years. From now on, we've broken off the relationship between mother and son. I don't want to annoy you, and you don't want to bother me either.
, It’s a good idea to leave without seeing him off!”
Pointing to the location of the gate, Zhao Xing turned around to find medicinal materials. It was important to treat Gou Sheng's injuries first.
Lin Yuan, who was ignored, clenched his fists tightly. Hearing the sound of Gou Sheng swallowing his saliva, he suddenly kicked the wine jar out of the door in anger, stumbled to the door and shouted at the busy Zhao Xing: "Don't regret it!"
The hand that picked the medicinal materials paused, and listening to Lin Yuan's footsteps as he walked away, Zhao Xi murmured: "I'm not your biological mother. I didn't send you to prison out of consideration for the original owner's love for his son. I hope we won't have any contact with you again."
.”
When no one was around, Zhao Xing went to the kitchen to get a basin of pure water from the space, alcohol cotton and trauma medicine, and then went into the house to treat the dog's wound.
The baby, who was only a few years old, was supposed to be at his most naughty, but Gou Sheng's eyes were dim and he bit his lip without making a sound when cleaning the wound. This forbearance made Zhao Xing admire and feel distressed.
"Shout out if it hurts. Children who cry can be fed by milk. How can anyone know that you are being bullied if you are so patient?" After wrapping Gou Sheng's wound, Zhao Xing said.
"But I don't have parents, and no one will comfort me when I cry. If I complain, I will be hungry in the future. My mother told me before she left that she must live no matter how hard it is." Gou Sheng lowered his eyes and burst into tears.
My eyelashes were wet but stubbornly did not fall.
"What a coincidence, my cousin is also alone. Why don't we two keep company? If something happens in the future, you can comfort my cousin, and my cousin can comfort you. It sounds pretty good." Zhao Xun was moved by sympathy.
But there are also practical considerations.
In this time and space, a daughter can inherit the family business, but the end of a family without children is usually not very good. After all, there are many people who are worried about their property.
Just like the old people who lived in nursing homes in previous lives, they would always be neglected if they didn't have children to visit them regularly.
Gou Sheng suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhao Xing. When he saw the smile on her face, a smile appeared unconsciously.
For a moment, Gou Sheng shook his head sadly, "Cousin, I pity Gou Sheng. Gou Sheng will remember my cousin's kindness. But Gou Sheng is too young and can't do much work. He is just a freeloader. Cousin's children and grandchildren, even if
Even if you are angry with them now, we are still a family."
Zhao Xing was surprised that Gou Sheng could think so much. How much hardship did he go through to develop such rationality?
Touching Gou Sheng's head, Zhao Xian's nose felt sour when he thought about the origin of his name.
Other people's children call them Gou Sheng because they are easy to make a living with, but Gou Sheng's name comes from the fact that after he became an orphan, he was so hungry that he competed with dogs for food.
This is also the reason why the children in the village bully Gou Sheng, thinking that he is ominous and lowly.
"Gou Sheng doesn't have to worry about that much. You just need to think about whether you want to live with your cousin. If you want to, your cousin will tell the village chief that you are still your parents' son. Your cousin will not force you to adopt him."
Next, let your incense burn off."
Patting the little guy on the shoulder, Zhao Xing said with a smile: "Don't make a decision in a hurry. It will take you a few days to recover from your injury. My cousin just bought a house and has to be busy moving. You can take a moment and let your cousin cook."
meal."
Thinking of moving, the smile on Zhao Xing's face couldn't leave her face. No matter how much she broke, it would only be her property, Zhao Xing's, and no one would think about it!
However, Zhao Xin cooked the porridge and eggs, but before she finished eating, Stepmother Juhua came to the door with her family.
"Where's Lin Yuan? Get out of here! You just want to let it go if you take advantage of my chrysanthemums. There's no way!"
