As soon as these words came out, everyone at the table was stunned. Su Ning has always had the least status at home, not to mention eating chicken before, and she couldn't even drink a mouthful of chicken soup. The Li family is unusually abnormal today, and the children are at a loss, only Yu Jinfu, who knows the inside story, is silently plowing the rice.

Su Ning shook her head and said softly: "Mother, I won't eat it, give it to my brother." ”

Su Ning really doesn't want to eat it, she hasn't eaten meat since she was a child. First, because the family is poor and has many brothers and sisters, it is not her turn to eat the child she picked up, and secondly, since she can understand the words of animals, she is even more reluctant to eat their meat.

Li said: "Eldest sister, are you still blaming your mother?"

Su Ning hurriedly said: "No, it's just that I don't want to eat ......"

When the second brother heard this, he reached out to grab it again, and this time no one stopped him. After eating, it was already dark, Su Ning helped clean up the dishes and chopsticks, brushed the pots and washed the dishes, Li asked her to rest early, and she went back to the room with her second sister.

The night is as cool as water, and the moon and stars are scarce. The village was silent, with only a few dogs barking occasionally.

Yu Wande was sitting on the desk and reading at night, and his two younger brothers were already asleep on the kang. Outside the half-hidden door, there was a thin sound of conversation, Yu Wande didn't pay attention to it at first, but then it sounded wrong, he held his breath and tiptoed to the door.

Li and Yu Jinfu were sitting outside, Li was fiddling with a few silk horses in her hand, and she said:

"Next month, Dalang has to go to the township to take the test, and I have to make him a decent set of clothes. ”

Yu Jinfu asked: "Isn't this to make clothes for the eldest sister?"

Li said: "When she marries the Tian family, are she still worried about having no good clothes to wear?"

"But Mrs. Wang said today, this is Tian Dahu's reward for the eldest sister......" Yu Jinfu reminded in a low voice.

"Regardless of these, isn't that girl wearing new clothes, won't Tian Dahu let her go to the door?" Li snorted coldly: "That fox is a good fate, she has a good face, and she has made such a disaster, Tian Dahu's family still doesn't dislike it, we have to let her marry her quickly, lest Tian Dahu regret it one day." ”

Yu Jinfu asked hesitantly: "Did you really decide to let the eldest sister marry Tian Dahu's stupid son......

Li asked rhetorically: "We have all accepted the dowry of other people, do we still have to regret it? Now the whole township knows that that stinky girl has offended the Hou Ye, who will dare to marry her in the future? No one wants it! Wang Po said, when Tian Dahu chooses a good day, let her marry immediately!"

Yu Wande felt chills when he heard it inside, and Yu Jinfu said outside:

"The eldest sister was picked up by grandma, so we still have to talk to grandma......

"What do you have to say to the old woman who is dizzy?"

"What if the eldest sister refuses to marry......"

"She dares, she dares to say a word, see that I don't break her legs!" said Li fiercely.

Yu Wande in the room didn't dare to breathe, he quietly stepped back. After thinking about it, his heart was like a wheel.

It turned out that the father and mother had already accepted the dowry of Tian Dahu and were ready to let Su Ning marry the stupid son of his family, no wonder his mother would be so good to Su Ning today, in order to buy people's hearts.

What should he do? Yu Wande clenched his fists, he only knew that he couldn't watch Su Ning go to death, Tian Dahu's son's wife would either go crazy or die, Su Ning would definitely not end well if she married her, he had to save her!

Yu Wande made a decision, he didn't go to the door, but jumped out of the window of the room and went around to the window of Su Ning and the second sister.

Su Ning was lying on the kang with her second sister, who was already sleeping and snoring, but she was looking at the roof without sleep. There was a sound of footsteps outside the house, and she recognized it as Yu Wande, and she sat up in confusion.

Yu Wande whispered to her outside the window: "Su Ning...... Suning......"

Su Ning immediately got up, opened the window, Yu Wande climbed in, he lowered his voice, and said anxiously:

"Father and mother have already accepted Tian Dahu's dowry, and they plan to let you marry his son, you should run away quickly!"

Su Ning was stunned, Yu Wande took advantage of the moonlight thrown in from outside the house to touch Su Ning's small closet, he opened the closet, urged:

"Hurry up and pack up some clothes and leave in the evening!

Su Ning walked behind him and asked hesitantly, "Big brother, why should I run away?"

Yu Wande said angrily: "If you don't run away, do you want to marry that idiot?" He is stupid and sick or secondly, the key is that several of his wives are not good to die, who knows if there is something unclean in their house?

Su Ning lowered her head worriedly and said, "If I leave, what will you do......

Su Ning is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and Hengzhu himself has died once. She didn't want to involve the Yu family, and it was also a favor for her that they raised themselves so much. She can't do anything that others don't care about for the sake of self-preservation.

Yu Wande also understood her concerns, and he comforted: "What else can I do? Everyone is gone, just return the dowry to them, can they still detain our whole family?"

Su Ning asked again: "But...... Where can I go?"

Yu Wande thought about it for her, and he ordered: "You rush overnight to the crested mountain outside Jinshui Village, isn't there a nunnery on that mountain? ”

Seeing that Su Ning was silent, Yu Wande said again: "That place is still relatively close to here, I'm afraid that it will be found, but it really can't be done, so you can go to the county, find a big family, and sell yourself to be a maid, which is better than marrying the son of a big family!"

Yu Wande has never seen much of the world, and he really can't think of a better idea.

Su Ning said lightly: "Where are you going...... I don't care, I'm afraid that if I'm gone, it will hurt you. ”

Yu Wande was distressed and anxious, and he said again and again: "It's just a dowry money, will Tian Dahu still want us to pay for our lives? You run away quickly! If you don't leave, it's too late!"

Su Ning's heart was sour, her grandmother and eldest brother, who treated her the best in the family, persuaded her to leave, it seemed that she was destined to leave this time. She gritted her teeth, walked to the cupboard, found a piece of cloth, and packed her baggage.

Yu Wande saw that she was finally leaving, and he was both reluctant and relieved, if Su Ning didn't leave, his life would be difficult to protect, and he would have to send her away no matter how reluctant he was to her.

He said, "You will wait for me outside the courtyard, and I will bring you some bread and water." ”

Su Ning nodded, and said, "I want to go see grandma." ”

"Hurry up, then. ”

The brother and sister climbed through the window and left, going their separate ways.

Su Ning came to her grandmother's room, and in the dark, she clearly saw her grandmother sleeping on the kang. Grandma was her savior, and if she hadn't had it, she would have died in a cave.

With tears in her eyes, Su Ning knelt down in front of her grandmother and kowtowed three times. She whispered:

"Grandma...... When I have the skills, I will come back to cure your eyes...... You're going to wait for me......"

She wiped her face and got up to leave. The grandmother on the kang woke up, and she called in a hoarse voice:

"Is it the eldest sister......

Su Ning hurriedly turned back and held her grandmother's calloused but incomparably warm hand.

Grandma asked, "Big sister, are you leaving......

Su Ning held back her tears and choked up: "Yes, grandma, my father and mother want me to marry Tian Dahu's stupid son, and my eldest brother said that I would be killed if I marry...... I'm sorry, grandma, please forgive me......"

"Silly girl...... grandma smiled, "what's the excuse, you can go to a better place, you should have left a long time ago......"

"Grandma, I will definitely learn the skills, make a lot of money, and then come back to help you cure your eye disease. Su Ning said stubbornly.

"Okay, good ......," Grandma said with relief, "It's enough for you to have this heart......"

Su Ning saw that time was running out, so she rushed over and hugged her grandmother.

"Grandma, I have to go......"

But the grandmother grabbed her and said, "Go to my closet, open the bottom drawer, and bring the bag of things under my clothes......
