Chapter 11: Departure
There was a loud "bang", and the fence on the periphery of the Xie family's yard, which was not strong, was kicked by Father Xie. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ ć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Chao Lang and Shui Lang heard the sound and hurriedly ran out of the kitchen to check. Xinglang sat in the courtyard and was so startled by a loud bang that she fell directly from her chair.
"Dad, you... You're back. ā
Father Xie stepped forward, kicked out the bench in front of him in the courtyard by two or three meters, and asked sharply: "Say, where are you all going today?" It's not that Xie Laosan mentioned it to me, I don't know that a few of you have the courage to skip work for Lao Tzu. ā
"We... Today is something... Several people were frightened, especially Xinglang and Shui Lang, their bodies trembled slightly, the injuries left by the last beating were not complete, and they faintly felt that their whole bodies began to hurt again.
Chao Lang took a step forward and explained under the cannibalistic gaze of Father Xie: "The textile factory jointly run by several villages is recruiting workers today, and I took my sister to the county to participate in the recruitment. ā
Father Xie didn't agree with this statement at all, not to mention that he didn't hear the rumors that there was any recruitment, even if there were, it was the right thing to do it in Tieshan, and he earned a lot every month.
"After your eldest sister got married, you were the biggest in the family, I originally thought you were an honest person, but I didn't expect you to be a traitor inside, did you go to recruit workers and notify me?"
The many branches on the bamboo broom soon left marks on Chaolang's bare skin.
Chaolang endured the pain, pushed in front, and did not hide.
It all happened in the midst of thunder and lightning.
Mother Xie in the back panted and pouted, and also arrived at the door of the house. When I saw the formation inside, I was stunned. Seeing that Father Xie was about to make a move, he rarely stopped him with his arm.
She still has a trace of kindness to Chaolang, a daughter who always defends herself on weekdays, is diligent and obedient.
If it's Xinglang or one else, she doesn't care. It's just Chaolang... Father Xie didn't care about it, if he continued to fight so fiercely, Chaolang would have to lie down. Tomorrow there won't be much housework for her to do.
No matter what Mother Xie was thinking, she stopped it anyway. Although she was also trembling, she looked at Father Xie's face carefully.
"Chaolang has always been honest, not like disobedient. Mother Xie calmed the anger in her chest with one hand, and pulled Xinglang out of her ear from behind Chaolang with the other, "Usually you are disobedient, did you make trouble this time?"
Yuan Lang carefully picked up the crack in the door and looked out, and he didn't dare to go out at all.
Father Xie was interrupted by Mother Xie, and his sanity came back a little. At this time, the hand carrying the wine was still as steady as Mount Tai, and not a drop of the soju in it was spilled.
Still swept over everyone with a cold feeling, "Where is Lao Wu? Hide? Now hurry up and come out for me, don't let Lao Tzu look for it." ā
Yuan Lang saw that he couldn't escape, pursed his lips, lowered his head and walked out from behind the door.
"You still dare to hide, eat the leopard's gall. Mother Xie pulled Yuan Lang angrily, almost throwing Mother Xie's hand out. Her thick black nails pinched into the flesh through her clothes, and Yuan Lang grinned in pain.
After going home, she found a stool to sit down, Xie Jiaojiao, who was still eating candy in her mouth, was not afraid of everything in front of her at all, her sisters were beaten, she was used to it. Dangling your feet, looking left and right.
Xie Shiyuan saw that Father Xie's beating hand was put down, and his face was still dissatisfied, "Hit, hit, hit." "Especially the third sister who loves to bully herself.
"Dad, the textile factory is indeed recruiting workers today, we all went, and no one in the village got any news. Although Yuan Lang is also afraid of Father Xie, he is still not as afraid from the heart as the other sisters. Under the pressure of Father Xie, he can still talk to him calmly.
"No one else knows, so how do you know? ā
"It's the fourth brother who said it. Xinglang said quickly. Seeing that it was on him, Shui Lang raised his head violently and pushed Xinglang. "I, Iā" Shui Lang stammered and couldn't say why.
Xinglang was obviously still worried about Shui Lang's calculation of the second child, and she was ruthless and sold Shui Lang directly.
She was talking to Yan Qingzhi in the next village, and the news was told to her by Yan Qingzhi. ā
Yuan Lang didn't have time to stop it, Xinglang was like pouring beans, and he went all at once.
Shui Lang screamed, and pounced on Xinglang to cover her mouth.
Now the focus of the Xie family is no longer on everyone going to participate in the recruitment of workers in the textile factory, but on Shui Lang.
Father Xie has always been strict, except for Yuan Lang, who is eighteen years old, the others are all twenty, and the eldest Chaolang is also twenty-three. At this age, she has already become an old girl in the countryside. Who in the village is not talking behind his back, saying that Lao Xie Tou is afraid that he wants to leave the four golden flowers at home to make a fortune.
It is normal for a girl in her twenties to have a budding heart, but Father Xie has never allowed his daughter to talk about it, so Shui Lang only dares to secretly associate with Yan Qingzhi behind his back.
With a wave of Father Xie's big hand, the two sisters who were about to fold together were separated, and a big slap slapped Shui Lang's face.
"Shameless..."Father Xie spoke viciously, there was no love in his eyes, he pulled up Shui Lang's long hair and pulled it in front of him, and there were a few loud slaps. Shui Lang's face is visibly swollen into buns.
Xie Mu pinched Shui Lang's body one by one, screaming to the sky and grabbing the ground, and the embarrassing words spit out of her mouth one by one.
"You are so ashamed, what kind of person is Yan Qingzhi, can he see you, is it you who rushed to post it. ā
Yan Qingzhi is famous in ten miles and eight towns, he is good at reading, he is good-looking, and his family conditions are not bad, which of the big girls does not look at him differently, then the Bao'er of Xie Yong's family is not chasing after other people's butts every day, and it is not ashamed.
"Mom and Dad, don't talk about the fourth sister like that" Yuan Lang couldn't look at it, it was like an enemy, she had never seen any parent bury their daughter like this.
Xinglang was also happy for a while, and her head was dizzy and pushed Shui Lang out, she didn't think so much, Shui Lang's miserable appearance now still made her feel guilty.
Seeing that Yuan Lang opened his mouth, he also mustered up the courage to speak: "The fourth sister is also a worker in the textile factory now, and she is still worthy of Yan Qingzhi." ā
"What kind of worker, my mind is wild, and I will honestly go to work in Tieshan, otherwise I will go to Yan's house to discuss with his parents, my good daughter has been taught badly. Father Xie spat out thick phlegm and pumped a few more times.
The last few hits were not pumped, Yuan Lang and Chao Lang blocked in front, and the two blocked with their backs.
Father Xie hatefully threw away the beating object in his hand, turned his head and scolded at Mother Xie again, "I just said that girls are useless, they read too many books, and everyone is skinny." ā
"Don't eat today, kneel on the washboard, and think about what you're doing wrong. ā
When Xie Shiyuan's father didn't speak, he took out a few old washboards.
Yuan Lang glared at Shi Yuan in disgust, bear child, it's really annoying.
Several washboards are missing a piece or half a corner, and it doesn't look like they can be used to wash clothes, so it is estimated that they were specially left to set rules for the daughters of the Xie family.
Under Father Xie's fierce gaze, Yuan Lang could only kneel down, the washboard was uneven, and he quickly sank into the flesh, which was sour.
Shui Lang was exceptionally silent, his hair was scattered, covering his face, and he couldn't see the expression on his face, Yuan Lang looked at such a fourth sister, and his heart was full of unease.
Ignoring the pain in his knees, he moved over slowly like a snail, "Fourth sister, you're okay." ā
Through the slits of unkempt hair, a sharp light of resentment flashed in Shui Lang's eyes, which scared Yuan Lang, who happened to turn his head away.
Shui Lang's mental state is very wrong.
However, it is estimated that when she says it, there will be no one to take care of it, everyone is too busy to take care of themselves, how can they have the energy to care about others. Yuan Lang could only secretly pay more attention to Shui Lang.
After kneeling for more than an hour, Father Xie may have thought that if he knelt for too long, he would not be able to go to work again if he couldn't walk tomorrow, so he amnesty and let a few people go back to their rooms to think about it.
Yuan Lang pulled up his trouser legs, his knees were already bruised, and he felt that his legs were not his own, but fortunately, it was only an hour, and his legs would be scrapped if he took a long time.
The others weren't much better.
Shui Lang went back to the room and fell directly onto the bed without saying a word.
Ai Ai lingered beside the bed during the Xinglang period, wanting to apologize, it was indeed wrong for me today, but it was also angry with Shui Lang. Chaolang also blamed her in a low voice, blaming her for not saying anything.
Yuan Lang rubbed his knees, secretly relieved, and felt very ashamed of his dark psychology. Otherwise, when he faced Father Xie before, he would not have spoken for Shui Lang so hard.
I wanted to have a meal of flesh and skin. However, thanks to Shui Lang, he led all the firepower of Xie's father, otherwise he would not have been able to have all his tails, and only injured his knees.
In the middle of the night, I slept just right, and a violent shaking woke me up from my dream. The lights in the room were bright, Yuan Lang squinted his eyes, blocked the dazzling light of the bulb with his hand, and looked at the person in front of the bed in a daze, "Second sister, what are you doing?"
I looked again, and it was pitch black outside the window, and it was the middle of the night.
Xinglang, who was sleeping in the bed, was also woken up by the sound of the two.
"The fourth is gone...."
This sentence was like a muffled thunder, which blew Yuan Lang up instantly, and his thinking like a paste was immediately clear. Looking at the bed next to him, Shui Lang's quilt was lifted, and there was no temperature inside.
"Will you go out to the bathroom?" Xinglang also sat up in panic.
Yuan Lang put on his shoes and asked, "When did you find out that the fourth sister was missing?"
"Just now, I woke up with urine and found that there was no one around, I thought she might have gone to the toilet, and I looked outside, but there was no one. "Chaolang is anxious to turn around in the same place.
"You said that the fourth child wouldn't be unable to think about it, right?" Xinglang said with an ugly face.
"Don't scare yourself, the fourth won't. Chao Lang shook his head and didn't let Xinglang talk nonsense.
"Or call your parents up and go out to find it together..."Yuan Lang did not rule out the kind of situation that Xinglang said, in modern times, I have seen too many fragile people and can't think of doing stupid things for a while.
Yuan Lang was very worried, and he saw that something was wrong with Shui Lang at the beginning, blaming himself, if only he paid more attention to it.
After a while, the Xie family was brightly lit.
