Paternity
Chapter 69



"What time is it now? There is a lot of work waiting to be done in the field. The eldest son was still sleeping on the bed. Are you going to exhaust your mother and brother to death? You bastard!"


"Pretend not to hear, do you want your old lady to come to your house and drag you out! Erniang, go, wake up your father!"


There was a thin, high-pitched female voice next to her ears, and Su Aobai felt her head filled with pain, partly due to the sharp scolding of the woman, and partly because of the body's disease itself at this time.


He felt as if he was in a furnace, his entire body was scorched by flames, and his head was swollen and aching, as if a hammer was constantly hitting him.


Su Aobai wanted to move her body, but unfortunately her body was very heavy, as if she had met a ghost on the bed, she tried hard to open her eyes, but in the end she could only open a gap, and faintly saw some hazy images.


The thin and small shadow opened the door and entered, and walked slowly to his side, after a while, Guaobai felt his forehead being touched by something cold.


It's rough to the touch, a little stinging.


"Grandma, my father's body is so hot, he's on fire!"


Immediately, the cold and coarse object was pulled, followed by the sound of a thin but hurried young lady.


Listening to the content of this conversation, his daughter who had just entered. The rather cold and rough hand he had felt just now was probably the hand of this little girl, but how could such a big boy have such a rough hand? about skin?


There were also women outside who were shouting and scolding.The other party should have been the mother of this body, but judging from the sharp shouts and scolding just now, there was not much to talk about the family affection.


"Burned?"


There was a strange scream again from outside, then Su Aobai heard some quick and heavy footsteps coming out from his ears, at this moment, Su Aobai did not even have the strength to open the gap of his eyes.


I vaguely heard the last part of the conversation.


"It's broken. The second child had severe burns, and everyone was confused. Must have caught wind and cold while fixing the roof when it rained yesterday. Boss, hurry and invite Dr. Li."


The quiet male voice.


"I burned too much money. There are many big and small waiting for food. The second child is strong, and he will be fine after lying down for a while. Why not hire a doctor? That family can't afford half a copper coin."


The shrill female voice was bluffing again.


"You can freeze the roof if you fix it. You can't help your family every day. You can only find trouble for me. Boss, don't listen to your father. You all go to the ground. I'll pick some herbs and come back later." He would be fine if he boiled a pot of hot soup and poured it.


Women's attitude is pretty tough.


"Go, go, go to work."


There was another sound of pushing and pushing, and the footsteps grew further and further.


"There's still a lot of work in the field, and I don't know how to pick the right time when I'm sick..."


The murmur became increasingly soft, and Su Aobai was completely asleep.


*****


After an unknown time, Su Aobai was awakened by the smell of soup being forcefully poured into his mouth.


It tasted sour, bitter, and astringent, like a soup made from foot wrap that the old woman had been wearing for several years. It was enough to wake the dead. Su Aobai's first reaction when she regained consciousness was to stay away. The person who filled himself with soup then scratched his throat with his fingers, spewing out the medicine that had just been poured.


But until the stomach acid almost vomits, the smell is still penetrated into the lining of the tongue and nasal cavity, this taste is indescribable.


"Well, you heartless creature, my old lady kindly boiled medicine for you and you beat me, an old lady. You should really ask the people in the village who praise you for your kindness and honesty to come and see how disobedient you little bastard is!"


Su Li was pushed to the ground, and the pain in his tailbone made his already evil face even more distorted.


"Grandmother, my father, he didn't mean it."


Standing in the corner was a thin, shrunken little girl, about six or seven years old, black and thin, like a big head on a matchstick, and her voice was like a mosquito. I can't hear you.


"OK, one by one pretend I'm sorry for you, the big one, the small one too, with a sad face, thanks to the family feared by you two, she said, look at the herbs that I worked so hard. get , everything is destroyed, hmph, and I push my mother, ever since I woke up and could hold my throat, it looks like the disease is almost cured, hmph, and I'll go to the ground tomorrow!"


The wicked old woman stood with her hands on the ground, glaring at her step-daughter who was still vomiting in the kang, and then at her shy second granddaughter, who was born with a bad face, shook her hands, and walk out in anger.


After the cursing old woman left, the room became silent instantly, Su Erniang's thin body stuck to the wall, and his large eyes that were more prominent due to his thinness stared at the man on the bed.


"Second Jiang, come here!"


Su Aobai wiped her mouth with the back of her hand in disdain, then waved at the little girl.


When he was in a coma, he had already received all the memories from his original body.


This time he came to an upper dynasty that was similar to an ancient feudal dynasty but was not in his memory.


The woman who had just left was the stepmother of this body, her original family had not separated, and was a relatively prosperous family.


The current head of the family was Yuanshen's father, Su Kuishan. Su Kuishan had two wives. His first wife, Su Liu, gave him two sons. The eldest son, Su Youtian, and the second son, Yuanshen Su Youniu.


When Yuanshen was two years old, Su Liu became seriously ill and died shortly afterwards. Later in the second year, Su Kuishan remarried under the help of a matchmaker in a neighboring village for keeping filial piety to his parents. Li Shi Lanhua, who was still unmarried at the age of twenty-two, was the evil mother-in-law earlier.


It is said that if there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather. This point was very clearly reflected in his original body. It is better that the eldest son live in Arita. The elders of the Su clan took care of her, and when Li got married, Su Youtian was already five years old, a little reasonable, and good at speaking, she said, and Li did not dare to bully Su Kuishan too much behind Su Kuishan's back.


In comparison, Yuanshen was pitiful, when her mother died, she was young, when she was a little wiser, she thought that Li Shi was her biological mother, and at one time she had great admiration for Li Shi.


In addition, she became pregnant in the second year of Li's marriage, and soon gave birth to her own son, the eldest son on top, and soon after, and the youngest son who was born from his step-wife below.His original body completely lost its senses.


In those years, Mommy. Li successively added two men to the family, the third son Suyouliang and the fourth son Youwen.


It is said that when the fourth child was born, a Taoist priest came to ask for water After drinking a bowl of water that Su Kuishan asked her to pour by her eldest daughter-in-law, the old Taoist priest pinched his finger and said to Su Kuishan with a smile Their family is very prosperous, and the family is destined to produce capable people, who will be very valuable in the future.


Not long after the old man left, he heard Li's scream, followed by the baby's cry.


Su Kuishan immediately thought of the old saying earlier.


Because of the veteran's words, Su Youwen became the only child in the family to attend school.


The Su family's condition was quite prosperous. They lived in seven blue brick and gray tile houses, and there were over 20 acres of land and an old scalper in the family. The matchmaker came to terms with him, and although the second wife he married was a little older, she was still a big girl.


However, since the youngest son had to go to school to study, the family had struggled all along, and soup and water were scarce on weekdays, and only a small amount of meat was seen during New Year's Eve.


After all, the marginalized Yuanshen had never tasted meat.


Originally the eldest brother Su Youtian was married to his wife, Madam Zhang, and Su Youtian was a smart person, as well as a smart one, and secretly he falls in love with a girl from the same village who has many men.Arita is the eldest son of Su Kuishan's favorite Although Dafang's life may not be as good as Li's own son, the, it can still be passed.


The couple gave birth to Su Laibao's eldest granddaughter, Su Yuanniang's eldest granddaughter, and Su Laijin's second granddaughter in this house.


With the biggest granddaughter in the family, the position of the long house in Su Kuishan's heart grew steadily stronger.


His real body would not work, his temperament was dull, and he did not like his biological father. In addition, Li Shi brainwashed her since she was a child, saying that she was raised by her stepmother, and that she was raised by her stepmother, so if she was unfilial, she would not be, it'll be struck by lightning.


In this family, his real body was as good as that old scalper, doing the most grueling work, but he was someone no one in this family admired.


When he reached the age of marriage to a daughter-in-law, none of his father and stepmother thought of making trouble for him.In the end, his mother, the Liu family, could not bear it anymore, and taking the initiative to find Su Kuishan, and marrying a girl from the Liu family to Yuanshen., a cousin, a cousin, could be considered more kissing.


The Liu family did not ask for a dowry, and the Li family happily agreed, but when this daughter-in-law actually got married, the Li family did not like her as the girl from the family before her husband, and feeling that the Liu family had ulterior motives, and brought a girl back to make her a man.Once I saw this daughter-in-law, I thought of the mother-in-law who died early.


So among the four daughter-in-laws, Xiao Liu became the most enraged.


Like her real body, she would also be arranged by Li Shi to perform various tasks, and she was not idle while pregnant, she slipped and fell while preparing to feed pigs after cooking pork, and gave birth prematurely at the age of eight months After desperately giving birth to a daughter, her lower body dripped, and after fighting for two days, he finally left.


Fearing outsiders would say that her stepmother was evil, Li issued a rumor that the second grandson had bad character and was born as a mother-in-law.


Most of the children in the village were instructed by their parents not to play with the funeral star in the second room, and because of the rejection of the people around, Su Erniang developed a timid look, his temperament was the same as his original body, he did not know how to fight, and only worked bluntly.


Su Youliang from the third room was lazy and greedy, and tried to avoid work every day. Although Lady Li loved her youngest son the most, she had nothing to do with her own son, let alone Su Youliang marrying him. She must be a girl from her birth family.


Maybe it was to get rid of the Liu family. In the second year after the Liu family married little Liu to his real body, the Li family hired a girl from the Li family for her third child. This was also the daughter-in-law and Li shi's direct relatives were unwilling to criticize her nephew.


Xiao Li and Su Youliang were indeed a compatible couple, equally lazy and greedy, especially after Li gave birth to his daughter Su Fubao, they were even more lazy.


Because on the night before Sanya Su Fubao was born, an elderly couple from the Su family dreamed of a red light hitting the roof of their house, which happened to be the room where Sanfang lived. After half a month, she gave birth to a child. A white and fat baby girl who was completely different from a regular baby It made the old couple agree that this baby was born with great luck.


Therefore, the baby girl was born with a completely different name from her two cousins—Fubao.


Very evil to say the least, in the month Fubao was born, Su Youwen, who was only fourteen years old, passed the scientific examination for the first time and became the youngest child in the lucky history of Fengyang County.


The next time, good things will happen to Fubao at any time. He went to the river with his cousin to fish, and he could always catch the fattest and biggest. There were always patches of mushroom shrubs, and once young ginseng was discovered.


However, the discovery of the ginseng was secretly hidden, only the people in the third room and the old woman knew about it, because the host family had not yet separated, and all the properties became public property. the rooms will use cheap treasures.


So when the other family didn't know about it, Sanfang had raised a lot of money because of this lucky baby.


As for the fish, shrimp, and mushrooms Fu Bao had found, they were mostly sold by Li Shi, as learning was a bottomless pit, and most of the rest went into the mouths of the Fu Bao family and the elders.


The first room could get a bit of light with its thick skin, while the second room had no sense of existence at all.


When Fubao was three years old, the three-room couple gave birth to a son, Su Laiyun, and they were considered to have both children.


As for Su Youwen, the youngest son of the Su family, he was placed with high expectations by the entire family, and the entire family emptied all their money to support him in his studies, since he passed the Tongsheng examination at the age of fourteen.E., everyone strongly believed that passing that year According to the words of the old Taoist priest, Su Youwen would sooner or later become the number one scholar in high school, and he would be crowned marquis and prime minister.


It was a pity that in the next few years, Su Youwen had failed many times but failed to achieve anything. It was only in the previous year that he could not delay his age, so he married Wen Xiuniang, the daughter of the scholar who taught him.


In order to facilitate Su Youwen's studies, Lady Li rented a room in the city with money, Su Youwen and his wife stayed in the city all year round.


On Fubao's birthday, the good news came. Su Youwen finally passed the examination. At the age of 21, he became a bachelor.


While the whole family is happy, they also treat the girl Fu Bao better This child is truly blessed, otherwise, why would two happy events in the world happen on his birthday.


Even Su Youwen, a gifted scholar with a bright future, strongly believed in this, almost treating Fubao as his own daughter, the, and the couple in the third room used this princess to slack off more fairly.


As for his body's current serious illness, it was due to yesterday's heavy rain, some roof tiles were broken for a long time, and rainwater dripped into the room along the gap, and Mrs. Li ordered the original most honest.body to climb. While fixing the roof, the soles of my feet slipped when I finished fixing, and I fell down the stairs. The skin on my right leg was peeling a lot, and my knee was also bruised.


But Mrs Li did not take these injuries seriously at all, and blamed Yuan Shen for being too careless, and made her family feel unlucky during the month when her son passed the undergraduate exam.


So the real body could only return to its own room honestly, wiping the injured part with a handkerchief dipped in water, then wrapping it in old clothes and finished.


The high fever that he is experiencing today is not only due to heavy rain the day before, but also because the injured part is not treated properly, and is currently inflamed.


According to the direction of the original story, the original body burned for a few days before Su Kuishan and Li Shi hired doctors for the original body under Erniang's request If the fire continued, one might actually die.


Finally the doctor came and prescribed the medicine, saying that it was too late and he had to do his best to obey his destiny.In fact, his real body was more secure than this hurdle.


The old couple thought it was not because they were late in hiring their son as a doctor that made his condition worse and almost died.In contrast, they felt sorry for the six taels of silver spent asking the doctor.


In the following days, Madam Li would bring six taels of silver when she did nothing, she said, which made his original blunt body even more cowardly and honest.This enormous man was like a boulder, smashing him to death, completely. After all, he became the best old scalper for the adoptive family.


Since he was quite obedient, even though Li Shi and his two sons were not close to him, they would not give him face.Then, when his two sons became prosperous, his real body also followed.


Su Kuishan and Li Shi went to the capital with their promising son, leaving Yuanshen to take care of the fields and houses in their hometown, and marry him off to a daughter-in-law, who was, and told Yuanshen to thank you.


On the contrary, the oldest family that was once cherished by Su Kuishan often separated from the Li family.After the other two houses became more prosperous, the, they did many stupid things out of jealousy.Finally the family was destroyed and became villagers Characters that people avoided.


As for his original body, everyone praised him for being filial and meticulous, so he got a blessing.Although the first half of his life had a bit of difficulty, the second half of his life was accompanied by his wife and young son, who was a little girl, and his half-brother who had become an official in the capital relied on him, eating and drinking without worry, it was just luck.


Yuanshen herself also thought so, she hugged her newborn son joyfully.


The daughter-in-law who married later said that she had seen marriage with her second mother, and that she was a young man with a good personality The original body gladly agreed, and never thought to investigate it directly.


Naturally, he would not notice that the eldest daughter who had once knelt down and pleaded with the old couple to ask the doctor to see her become even more cowardly, and his thin figure looked like he was the other one from before.


Su Erniang was married far away, and only his real body, wife and youngest son were left in this family.


The couple guarded an old house and ancestral cemetery for their parents who were far away in the capital. They had all the success in the fields of tens of acres. The three-member family worked diligently and waited for some benefits from their relatives there.


A day like that is so beautiful!


Moreover, compared to the oldest family that was so devastated that it occasionally came to borrow food from them, Yuanchen felt himself happier.


But when these memories were put into Su Aobai's mind, she couldn't understand the happiness at the end of her original body, she just felt terrible and cold.


In the end, what exactly did this seemingly possessed real body possess?


It's just that, from an old scalper who just needs to work, to an old scalper who not only needs to work, but also takes care of the house.


But he was still lulled by it, forgetting the pain in the first half of his life, and also losing the only relative in this family who loved him so much.


"Second Jiang, come here!"


Su Aobai waved again at the little girl in the distance.


Only after she shouted for the second time did the thin, hairy little girl slowly tiptoe and walk towards her with her mouth pursed.


This was not the girl he had mistaken for only six or seven years old. Now Erniang Su was eight and a half years old, and he was about to celebrate his ninth birthday. She was already considered a middle-aged girl in the countryside, but because Su Erniang was often thin and short due to having to work and not eating enough, she was not, this made her not only talk about Kemu in the village, but also say that she was not good at giving birth.


Su Aobai felt depressed as she looked at her thin and small figure, her enormous eyes and her yellow and dry hair.


Most of the hardships and suffering his original body suffered were caused by himself, but what was wrong with Su Erniang?


She was the weakest woman in this feudal society, without the protection of her mother and father, she did not even have the ability to resist.


Su Aobai did not believe that the married woman behind Yuan would arrange a good family for Erniang. In Yuanshen's memories, Erniang had not been in contact with her since she got married. He also spoke of the unfilial piety of this princess, but was soon placated by her vivacious and sweet wife and son, gradually forgetting the existence of this princess.


Su Aobai could not forget this girl's last gaze on her wedding day.


Numbness, silent death, losing all hope and confidence in the future, carrying a shabby pack, still wearing old clothes with patches, riding a stranger's wagon, and going far away.


In that view, even hatred disappeared.


But at this moment, the eight-year-old Su Erni still had a hint of worry in her eyes.


“Erni, what are you doing staying at home, you dead girl? Get out to work. Your fourth uncle has been accepted as a scholar, so you should treat yourself as the daughter of a bachelor family. Bah, star mourning, didn't even see it." Look who you are!"


Li Shi outside the house throbbed back, Su Erni shrugged her shoulders, then glanced at her father who was still blushing on the bed, and dashed out quickly.


He had to go to work, or grandma was going to beat up someone again.


It was time to cook lunch now, and he tried to ask if he could save up for his father.


In the host house, people who do not work are not entitled to eat, even though they cannot work because of illness. Of course, this rule is mainly aimed at the oldest and second families. To eat, but also to sneak something to fill the stomach.


Su Aobai did not stop her daughter from leaving the room, as she could not protect her child now.


This world was different from the previous two worlds, in this world, Su Aobai felt an extremely weak aura.


In his previous life, he was the young master of the top sect in the cultivation world. Before the Son of Destiny appeared, he was the most talented amongst the younger generation in the cultivation world. His parents found the best additional magic weapon for him The spirit stone potion he gave was for him to develop, and the skill passed down in his family was only the Son of Fate.


Of course, the more prominent he was, the more suitable he was as a stepping stone for the hero. In the end, he was plucked from his spiritual roots and reduced to an ordinary person. The sect was also destroyed, and all its relatives died at the hands of the hero He lived only because the hero wanted him to be like an ant, so low, so painful that he remained alive.


But because the spiritual root revocation severely damaged the main body, Su Aobai did not live as long as the male protagonist expected, and died from exhaustion not long after.


In his previous two lives, Su Aobai had never tried to cultivate the practice because he was unable to sense the spiritual energy.The spiritual energy in this life was very weak, very weak, and he might not be able to break through the first layer of the exercise, but it was enough for him to strengthen his body and cleanse himself, get rid of this old disease in the body, he said, and even if he only practiced kung fu the most shallow level, it was enough for him to have the ability to carry jacks, making him stand out from the crowd among ordinary people.


Speaking of aura, Su Aobai suddenly remembered Sanfang's blessing.


Ck...


He showed an inexplicable expression, then untied the ties of the injured leg that was only wrapped in old clothes under the covers.


After being bandaged overnight, the previous wound was already red, swollen and festering, with bluish-yellow pus coming out from the surface, which looked extremely frightening.


He did not plan on using spiritual energy to heal this wound for now, he had to find a way to make Su Kuishan and Li Shi take the initiative to separate the families.


At first, the main reason Madam Li was willing to spend money to see Yuanchen was not because of Erniang's request, but because she was afraid that her family would be short of hardworking porters like Yuanchen.


What if this coolie suddenly becomes trash?


He was the best at playing trash, the memories left behind by his original body in the previous world were enough for him to perform a perfect appearance.
