"Sassy ......"

Along the winding mountain road, the middle-aged man led the way, and Lian Ge also moved his steps and walked forward with the middle-aged man.

From time to time, the branches of the bushes that stretched out to the road were removed and stepped on, and after one walked by, the branches and leaves bounced back again.

While walking, Lian Ge looked at the jungle.

The morning dew has not yet dissipated, but it is dotted among the branches and leaves, and the sun of the rising sun shines through the sparse branches and leaves, reflecting on the dead branches and leaves under the forest, which looks a little mottled.

......

A few days ago, Lian Ge arrived at the provincial capital of Jiangyou, and after staying in the provincial capital of Jiangyou for a few days, he chose a random direction again and left the provincial capital of Jiangyou.

Along the way, or by car, or on foot, passing through the noisy and lively towns, rolling mountains, or staying in hotels, or staying overnight in barren mountains and small temples,

After a few more days, we walked here.

"Brother, I'm tired of asking, what is this place now?"

Lian Ge looked at the birds hiding among the branches and leaves, foraging, and asked out loud as he walked.

Hearing this, the middle-aged man paused slightly as he moved the branches and leaves of the bush in front of him,

“...... Young man, do you ask about the big place or the small place?"

The middle-aged man said, and then pressed down the branches and leaves of the bush,

"If it's a big place, we're ...... It is Haixi Province, a place near the sea, if it is a small place, we are a small village at the junction of Haixi and Jiangyou, called Shannan Village...... It's still far away from the sea.

Most of the people in the village have the same surname, surnamed Wu, so it is sometimes called Wujia Village. ”

The middle-aged man led the way and said,

Lian Ge walked, listened, and looked at the shrub branches and leaves that extended from the side of the road in front of him,

After a pause, he turned his gaze and looked into the distance,

"Brother, I don't think there are very many people coming to this mountain temple?"

Moving his steps, Lian Ge said in a calm tone,

“...... It used to be a common visit, but now it's basically deserted. ”

The middle-aged man paused again before he responded,

“...... It is said to be a mountain temple, but in fact, it is an ancestor surnamed Wu in the village. ”

With another word, the middle-aged man fell silent again, and just walked forward.

Lian Ge looked at the middle-aged man, withdrew his gaze, and didn't say anything more.

All around him, it became more and more quiet, only walking through the winding path, disturbing the sound of branches and leaves, mixed with the sound of insects and birds.

......

Along the winding path between the mountains and forests, the terrain gradually descends, turning into a winding slope.

The trees in the mountains and forests are becoming more and more sparse, and the branches and leaves of the shrubs extending from the path in front of him are also decreasing.

“...... Young man, that's Wujia Village. ”

Stepping out of the mountain forest, on the mountainside, the slope is a piece of terraced fields, under the hillside, in the col, is a village.

A winding cement road, as a village road, coils around the village and extends outside the village.

Along both sides of the village road, there are houses that are either next to each other or scattered.

Or some old buildings, or bungalows covered with black tiles,

On the village road, you can still see some pedestrians walking by from time to time.

After a slight pause, Lian Ge glanced at the village and withdrew his gaze.

"Let's go, young man, let's go down to the village. ”

The middle-aged man also stood on the mountainside, looked at the village, and after saying a word again, he continued to walk in front to lead the way.

Lian Ge glanced at the middle-aged man, and also moved his steps again, walking along the hillside, the ridges of the terraced fields, towards the village.

......

Walking down the hill along the ridge, Lian Ge and the middle-aged man stepped into the village from the entrance of the village.

This village is also becoming clearer and clearer in front of us,

The cement paved village road stretches forward, or carrying baskets, carrying farm tools, or wearing rubber shoes, and the villagers riding battery cars pass by from time to time, or walk towards the fields, or towards the outside of the village.

Along the road, in front of the houses, in some yards, or children are playing, or the village people are busy, or they are tiled, drying some grain,

“...... Young man, go up from this road, there is a highway above, and there are buses passing by every half hour, if you want to be in the city, just take that bus. ”

At the entrance of the village, the middle-aged man paused, turned his head and said to Lian Ge,

"If you want to take a break, you can also take a break in the village, drink some water and eat before leaving. ”

As he spoke, the middle-aged man paused again,

......

“...... Did you hear about it, the daughter-in-law of the old Chen family ran back to her parents' house. ”

And at this moment, a voice came to my ears with the wind,

Hearing this, Lian Ge turned his gaze and looked at that place,

It was the courtyard in front of a two-story house at the entrance of the village, and several village women were standing at the edge of the courtyard talking.

One of them, bowing his head slightly, was saying something matter-of-factly,

"I said that I left at night a few days ago, and after returning to my parents' house, I haven't come back yet. ”

"Hey, who doesn't know about this, if you want me to say it, she's also embarrassed, and ran back to her parents' house,"

Another woman answered,

"She's not ashamed, I'm ashamed of her, her mother's family has also done it, this is all married girls, and they are still in the house, and they won't be sent back quickly. ”

"If you want me to say, the daughter-in-law of the old Chen family is a hen that doesn't lay eggs, day by day, hey, that person is dressed up with flowers, but what's the use. I screamed for so many years, and finally conceived a child, and was born a girl, what use do you say about that girl, I don't have to marry someone else's family when the time comes. ”

Another woman answered,

“...... I blame her mother-in-law for treating her badly, and she is embarrassed to run back to her parents' house, I see, I should let her stay at her mother's house and see how thick her mother's face is...... Anyway, I can't do it, if I want to have such a daughter, I'll dig a crack in the ground and get in. And the woman said,

"That old Chen family, it's really a sin, why did you take such a daughter-in-law, this is going to cut off the incense......"

......

"You guys have nothing to do every day, you know what your mouth is broken and you talk nonsense!"

Lian Ge heard it, and the middle-aged man next to Lian Ge also heard it, his face looked a little angry, and he stepped forward in a few steps, interrupting the words of several women,

"What's the use of calling a girl, what is the use of cutting off the incense, aren't you a woman?

The middle-aged man grabbed the plastic bag in his hand, his face was angry, and he yelled at the women,

Several surrounding women were startled by the sudden roar and took a few steps back,

Then, coming back to her senses, one of the women walked up to the middle-aged man again,

‘...... Put your shit, why don't I have a conscience, you roar, you yell at me again, yo, you Wu Laosi has a conscience, we are all wolf-hearted dogs......

The woman threw herself at the waist, tore open her throat, and shouted in a voice that was neither yin nor yang,

"You Wu Laosi are so conscientious, in the past, I didn't see how good you Wu Laosi was to your daughter. Yo, now for us...... Why don't you roar, don't you Wu Laosi have a conscience?"

The shouts of women rang out in the courtyard,

The middle-aged man held the plastic bag in one hand and the fist in the other, his face became more and more angry, and he stared straight at the woman.

But there was silence, and there was no more sound,

"What's the matter, you still want to beat the old lady, come, the old lady is standing here today, if you don't do it, you Wu Laosi will be the old lady's crotch drilled out......"

Seeing that the middle-aged man was silent, the woman shouted louder and louder,

And at this moment, the middle-aged man took a step forward,

The woman seemed to be frightened by the sudden movement, staggered back a few steps, and fell to the ground.

“...... , I beat people, I beat people, Wu Laosi beat women......"
