Xiao Yu's words made Gu Shunxi's face instantly bloodless, and he avoided the other party's gaze in a panic, and subconsciously let go.

Xiao Yu pushed the door, strode into the room, and entered the house in the next second, unlike Gu Shunxi's hastyness, he was very comfortable, turned around and sat on the sofa in the living room.

"Little girl, you have a good look at this door! Why, this student came to see the teacher, and he still didn't leave?"

"I didn't. ”

Gu Shunxi really didn't have much confidence in what she said, she slowly lowered her eyes, her whole face began to redden, and her hands shrunk in the cuffs involuntarily clenched their fists, and she added another sentence at the end.

"It's just temporary, it'll go. ”

"Who are you fooling? Anjie is not here, put away this poor ghost's appearance. If you stay here, she will not forget the experience of volunteering, and with the existence of such a drag oil bottle as you, how can she start a new job and life with peace of mind? Little girl, don't blame me, there are some things that An Jie can't say directly, so I'll say it for her. ”

Gu Shunxi didn't look at him either, her eyes looked at a pot of pothos on the windowsill, and silently counted the leaves, and after counting about two or three times, her mind was settled.

She also knows that she can't always rely on An Jie's house, students rely on teachers to support her, there is no such reason in the world.

"I'll go. ”

"When?"

"When Teacher An comes back, I will leave after saying goodbye. ”

"Don't be smart, An Jie is kind and soft-hearted, will she bear to let you go? Don't play procrastination with me, I won't eat, just pack up now, and I'll send you back." ”

Xiao Yu's words made Gu Shunxi embarrassed, his face was red, his eyelashes fluttered, he didn't dare to say anything, he followed Xiao Yu, slowly moved out of the door, and the moment the door was closed, she looked back at it for the last time, this room was cleaned up by her and An Jie little by little, but no matter how good it was here, no matter how good it was, no matter how good it was, it was not her Gu Shunxi's home.

Realizing this, the girl finally gave up, lowered her eyelashes little by little, and stopped looking.

Three hours later, Xiao Yu's car stopped at the entrance of Baiquan Village, through the window glass, Gu Shunxi saw Li Fengying squatting at the entrance of the village waiting, she suddenly felt a little cold, her body trembled slightly unconsciously, and even the strength to open the door was almost lost.

Xiao Yu glanced at Gu Shunxi from the rearview mirror, and saw that the little girl's face was pale, and she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, so she raised her hand and touched her nose, and added a sentence that wanted to cover up.

"It's not that I'm not kind, your mother asked people everywhere to come to me, and I'm kind enough to do it to the end, send you back, you said that you rural children are still playing very big, and you run away from home at every turn. ”

Gu Shunxi didn't hear what Xiao Yu was babbling at all, and she was very confused.

Although he knew that Li Fengying would find out that he had disappeared sooner or later, he would definitely find it, but this moment would inevitably come too quickly.

Fear and worry were intertwined, and the moment she opened the car door, she closed her eyes as if resigned.

As soon as she saw Gu Shunxi, Li Fengying ran over in a gust of wind, came up with a slap, and dragged her home.

In this way, Gu Shunxi returned to Baiquangou, and the experience in Hujiang City was like dew, and after evaporation, there was not even a trace left.

What Gu Shunxi didn't know was that An Jie and He Haocheng, who were missing her, were in a hurry to turn around and inquire about her whereabouts.

A week later.

In the small courtyard of the Gu family, Gu Shunxi was carrying a basin of washed clothes to dry.

The day before, Liu Lezi's 3,000 yuan had also been sent, Li Fengying was very satisfied with this, and she happily agreed to the request to advance the marriage date by two months, as for Gu Shunxi's unwillingness, in Li Fengying's opinion, it was not worth mentioning at all.

Now, Gu Shunxi's only task is to wait for marriage, but when she thinks of Liu Lezi's appearance and the way she looks at herself, she can't wait to hang herself on this clothesline, thinking about it, she finally mustered up the courage and came to Li Fengying step by step, she swallowed her saliva, moistened her dry throat, and squeezed out a sentence.

"Aunt Feng. ”

For some reason, Li Fengying never let her call her mother, Gu Shunxi was quite grateful for this, this may be the only thing Li Fengying has ever done and what she wants.

"I... I want to go back to school. ”

Seeing Li Fengying squinting at her, Gu Shunxi swallowed her saliva, her head pressed lower, and almost squeezed out a few words from between her closed lips and teeth.

"Please, I just..."

Before she finished speaking, Li Fengying took a burning stick and slammed it towards Gu Shunxi's back.

"Little cheap hoof, just two days after being honest, you're going to give me a moth again?"

Li Fengying's hand strength was extremely strong, and she didn't have any scruples about beating Gu Shunxilai, the girl's back was quickly swollen by her, and in the end, she almost didn't even have the strength to hide, so she could squat on the ground with her head in her arms and beg for mercy desperately.

It wasn't until a woman rushed out of the side room to stop her that Li Fengying stopped.

The woman was in her early twenties, but her appearance was a little tired beyond her age, her hair was fixed by a large light purple hairpin, one or two strands of broken hair ran out of her ears, she was wearing a half-worn orange gown, she looked a little cramped, and there was still a little tiredness and sluggishness in her eyes, she used her body to protect Gu Shunxi, begging bitterly.

"Mom, stop fighting, Shunxi didn't mean to make you angry. ”

Li Fengying gasped, squeezed out a cold snort from her nose, threw the burning stick into the corner, turned around and entered the house, and no longer paid attention to the two of them.

Zhang Yanbin carefully helped Gu Shunxi into the side room, which faced east, the size was less than ten square meters, and the old and yellowed plastic sheet served as glass, and no matter how good the daylight was, it could only penetrate four or five minutes, full of dullness and darkness regardless of the season.

Helping Gu Shunxi to get into bed, Zhang Yanbin took out a cloth bag from the bottom of the wardrobe, and the small black jar inside was filled with badger oil, which was the most effective way to reduce swelling and relieve pain.

"Shunxi, bear with me, my sister-in-law will give you medicine. ”

Gu Shunxi was lying on the bed, sweating in pain, but still didn't cry out in pain, seeing her like this, Zhang Yanbin couldn't help but shed tears.

"Why do you want to make her angry when you know her temper?"

Gu Shunxi stared ahead in a daze, and a fly fell on the plastic sheet covering the window, rubbing his hands constantly.

"Sister-in-law, don't you hate her. ”

Zhang Yanbin was stopped by her, and the hand that applied the medicine stopped in mid-air, and there was no movement.

She married into the Gu family at the age of sixteen, and there was not much difference in the days before and after marriage, nothing more than from the stove of her own house to the stove of the Gu family, she was docile and obedient, honored her in-laws, and took care of her husband who was lame and had a cold temperament. Every day there is endless work to do, endless scolding, and the days are even more difficult than before marriage, how can she not hate such days? But she is so tired that she has no extra strength to hate.

What's more, don't all women survive like this? When they give birth to a son, and the son marries a daughter-in-law, and becomes a mother-in-law, they will be able to get through.

Thinking like this, there is hope for the difficult days, and there is nothing to complain about.

"Xiaoxi, this is our life, what do you hate, you are still too young, many things... I don't understand it yet. Don't be suspicious of your sister-in-law's mouth, I know you don't want to get married, but aren't we women all here like this? ”

She said a lot later, Gu Shunxi didn't listen to it very clearly, but Zhang Yanbin's words were the same, and she had already heard the content so much that her ears were calloused.

People are lying on their stomachs here, but their thoughts don't know where to go. The gaze shifted from the flies on the window to the corners of the quilt that were worn to pilling, his eyes turned and turned, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, Zhang Yanbin was still talking to himself: "Our women's lives, that's it, there is no way to resist, and if it drags on for a long time, I won't hold a grudge against you." Men are very cautious, if you let Liu Lezi know that you dislike him now, and marry him in the future, it will not be you who suffers?

Listening to Zhang Yanbin say these words, Gu Shunxi suddenly felt that the fly rubbing her hands just now ran into her stomach, she was nauseous and wanted to vomit, she couldn't slow down for a long time, something was blocked in her throat, she had nowhere to vent, but there was no reason to break out.

She knew that Zhang Yanbin was a solid eye, and what she said was also sincerely for her own sake. However, what Zhang Yanbin thinks is a good destination is not what she wants.

"What's more, people are willing to pay 3,000 yuan just for the bride price, Xiaoxi, you... You also know that your brother's condition has been maintained by taking medicine, but this is not always a solution, the doctor said, the situation is satisfactory can be prosthetic, but we don't have enough money. Xiaoxi, think about your brother too, he has always been very good to you..."

Yes...

Thinking of Gu Shunyi, Gu Shunxi's eyes instantly turned red.

Zhang Yanbin squatted on the side of the bed, touched the girl's soft hair, and knelt down with a plop.

"Shunxi, sister-in-law, please, save your brother, look at his daily appearance, I'm really... I can't bear it. My sister-in-law didn't read much, but... People must know how to repay their kindness. ”

Gu Shunxi looked up at Zhang Yanbin, and the heavy friendship in the woman's eyes made her almost breathless.

She can run away desperately, or she can hate Li Fengying, but she can't ignore Gu Shunyi.

If Gu Shunyi hadn't picked her up back then, she would have died a long time ago. The Gu family gave her a mouthful of water and a mouthful of food, although it was like giving alms to wild dogs on the side of the road, but in the end, she could not fail to repay her kindness if she lived safely to the age of thirteen.

That's it, there have been happy times over the years, everything in Hujiang City is a dream in the dark, relying on this sweetness, she can also survive the hardships of this life.

Lowering her head, the girl's soft cheeks pressed against the cold edge of the bed, grievances overflowed her heart, and tears fell down in strings.

"I... I'll save him. ”
