The broken wooden door of Xiucai's house was pushed open with a creak, and the Xiucai lady poked out half of her head and looked out.

"Sister Hua'er knocked the bear boy unconscious, in charge, this matter is going to make a big fuss, and it's not good to spread it!"

Xiucai put her angry son on the bed, put on the pair of torn cotton shoes that showed two toes, and walked to the door to look.

"This kid follows Lan Yatou's ass every day, I don't know what the hell is going on in his heart, when he wakes up, he can't find Lan Yatou, there will be a noise in our house, you go out, talk to Sister Hua'er, let her take this kid away, anyway, the bear boy's family is dead, and no one will look for it if it's gone. ”

Xiucai's words were slow, but his tone was cold.

Xiucai's eyes lit up, she turned around and patted Xianggong's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Good idea, just now Sister Hua'er asked me to find some children for her, and each of them gave me a 10% rebate!

Xiucai pushed the lady out and said, "Go quickly, otherwise Sister Hua'er will take her away, and we won't even have one." ”

"Sister Hua'er, this kid was picked up by the old man bear in the village eleven years ago in the woods, the old man bear is a single widow, no children and no daughters, so he adopted him, six years ago after the old man Xiong stepped back to the west, this kid lived alone, these two years have become more and more off-road, do some stealing chickens and dogs, the people in the village see him and feel disgusted, but this kid is weird, there is nothing to love to follow the Lan girl behind the dangling, hehe, Xu wants to wait for the Lan girl to grow up and ask her to be a daughter-in-law!"

Xiucai Niangzi stood behind Sister Hua'er and whispered.

Sister Hua'er raised her foot and kicked the boy lying on the snow, her eyes lit up, and she turned her head and smiled: "Xiucai lady, so there is no one in this bear boy's family?"

"No, he's the only one, we don't know who his father and mother are, anyway, after so many years, no one has come to look for him, I'm afraid he's already dead!"

Sister Hua'er touched the exposed double chin, looked at the lying boy carefully, and said with a smile: "Slender hands and feet, some brute strength, okay, since you have to learn to be a flower protector at a young age, then I will fulfill you, pull it to Jiudao Villa together, and make more money." ”

As soon as she said it, she quickly trapped the two little people on the ground, stuffed them into two large wooden barrels, and picked them up and was about to go out of the village.

"Sister Hua'er, what about my rebate? Didn't you say that one would give me a 10% rebate?"

Xiucai Lady stopped Sister Hua'er with one hand, and said with a grin: "Lan girl was bought by us, you paid the silver, of course you can take it away openly, but this Brother Xiong Chen was beaten unconscious and kidnapped by you, this is called human trafficking in the law, so that the eldest man was caught, but it is the crime of parading the streets to show the public and squatting in prison." ”

Sister Hua'er's eyes widened, and she scolded: "You mother-in-law, this stinky boy is not your son, why do you bother to stand up for him?"

The Xiucai lady smiled harmlessly, and said in a low voice: "What Sister Hua'er said is reasonable, but you can also give me a little bit if you get the benefits!" Now that the weather is cold and windy, everyone is hiding in the house to warm up by the fire, and they don't know it...... Except for me, isn't it?"

She put her hands to her mouth and made a horn gesture, and said, "Fang Cai Lan girl shouted loudly, the people in the village know that we are selling our daughter, of course they don't say anything, but if I shout loudly now---- someone will kidnap the child! They will run out with hoes and shovels to save people." ”

Sister Hua'er snorted, this mother-in-law wants to go crazy with silver, maybe she will really shout, she put down the barrel, took out a few copper plates from her arms, stuffed them into the hands of the Mai woman, and scolded: "This kid came to the door by himself, what do you have to do, go back to boil water and kill rabbits, and wait for your father-in-law to go, I will tell you an honest word---- your talented husband is a black-hearted man, maybe the next time the cooking is broken, he will sell you to a brothel!"

With that, she picked up the barrel, passed over the Mai woman, and walked away.

The north wind became more and more violent, and the goose feather snow that had been held for a long time finally fluttered down, and in a moment, the footprints of Sister Hua'er had been covered, and the world suddenly turned into a white expanse.

Xiucai Niangzi stood in place with the copper plate pinched, letting the snowflakes swirl and fall on her, she looked at Sister Hua'er's back with a strange expression and annihilated in the cold wind, and then looked up to the sky and exhaled a long breath: "Okay...... All right. ”

She returned to the mud house, and her talented lady sat by the stove to keep warm, and the talented lady closed the wooden door and walked to him and sat down.

Xiucai narrowed his eyes and said lightly: "Have you gone far?"

Mai woman's jaw: "It's all gone." ”

Xiucai was silent, walked to the window, opened the leaky window, and looked at the thick lead cloud overhead.

"It's a lot of snow..... It seems that winter is almost over, when will the sun shine on the earth?"

The Mai woman kneaded the copper plate in her hand, and the fine powder came down from her fingertips: "It's almost ...... Soon!"

Xiucai Xianggong looked back at the lady, although his face was scorched, but his eyes were shining.

The eyes of the two briefly met, and then they moved away, and the corners of Xiucai's mouth turned up and smiled slightly.

"I've skinned the rabbit, you get some braised rabbit meat tonight, and we should be on our way." ”

Xiucai Niangzi snorted, turned around and threw the rabbit into the iron pot: "We have completed the task assigned by the holy oracle, and there are people on the road ahead, so we don't have to worry about it." ”

The snow fell heavily throughout the day, and it was only when darkness fell over the small village of the col that it eased.

In the middle of the night, the sky sounded horn thunder, winter thunder shook summer rain and snow, it has always been a bad omen, the people in the village are frightened in the quilt and shivering, for fear that Lei Gong will make a mistake and spread his anger on the roof of his house.

On this night, Xiucai Xianggong's dilapidated mud house was struck by thunder, a few points of spark instantly burned into a raging fire, the fire borrowed the wind, and the villagers who rushed to the news did not have time to burn the fire and melt the ice, the red fire has burned the entire mud house collapsed, Xiucai Xianggong and his successor and his one-year-old son were all buried in the raging sea.......

The next day, the villagers tried to clean up the remains of the Xiucai family for burial, although the couple were well-known in the village for counting dead grass, idle and not doing their jobs, but the deceased was the greatest, in this simple mountain village, people still chose to mourn and sympathize.

"Fortunately, they sold Lan Yatou, otherwise a little person of Shui Lingling would also be punished by God with them, this is really a great luck in misfortune!"

"I just pity their youngest son, who is just over a year old, and he is gone......"

"Strange, why isn't there even any scum left?"

The villagers searched back and forth in the collapsed and dilapidated house, and their faces couldn't help but show surprise.

"Burned to ashes?"

"Or did you escape?"

"Impossible, I ran to save people when there was a fire, and I didn't see anyone running out!"

For many years to come, when the villagers passed by Xiucai's house, they deliberately bypassed and did not dare to approach half a step.
