Although it is not very far from home, but the place is not familiar, even if there is a house, Mo Xiaohe still has no sense of belonging, because there are rich and noble people who can not endure hardships in the service, the farmland in the village is bought and sold, and a lot of houses and yards are built.

Every night, the village is chaotic, there are always inexplicable cries, and a month after Mo Xiaohe moved here, a big event happened in Sweetwater Village.

Because the candidates for this conscription were different from the past, although they were all men of the right age, there was a big gap between the perennial work and the pampering of the people, and these people who did not know the sufferings of the world always cried out that they were tired and tried their best to be lazy, and the planned work of the original month period was only half completed.

In the evening, Gu Zheng came back for dinner, according to this progress, it was impossible to complete it before the year, and the official would not kindly let people go back for the New Year, at most he would give two days to rest, tossing back, not enough time to delay on the way back and forth.

Mo Xiaohe knew her husband's appetite, she went into the city to buy a big pot of white flour steamed buns during the day, and bought a big pig's head, and made her own sauce pig's head meat, and the aunt next door helped to split it, and cut it again, she gave her aunt a piece as a reward for helping.

Originally, he only opened a small stove for his husband and uncle, and then developed into a shack, eight middle-aged men, each of whom had at least four big steamed buns, plus a bowl of vegetables.

At first, Mo Xiaohe didn't take it seriously, after all, these people's personalities are not bad, they know how to accept when they see a good one, and help Gu Zheng cover up, but after a long time, Mo Xiaohe found that his small body really can't do so much, and he always goes to send things, which has aroused the suspicion of people with intentions.

There are people in the surrounding villages who kill pigs, and they can buy a pound of about 112 Wen, which is a few Wens cheaper than the hands of the hawkers, but they can come over to accompany their families to serve in the conscription, the conditions are not bad, every time they kill the pigs, everyone grabs, and finally to Mo Xiaohe, only others dislike the ribs, big bones and pig heads without meat.

A few days ago, she steamed steamed buns by herself, from morning to night, not idle for a moment, a bag of fifty catties of fine white noodles, used up in a few days, this is still her mixed corn flour and buckwheat noodles together to steam steamed steamed buns, those people, the appetite is really too big!

Spending some silver, Mo Xiaohe doesn't mind very much, the main thing is that Gu Zheng goes to work during the day, she is the only one who goes out to buy, and meets people in the village, which is not easy to explain.

It's already dark, and tonight she is alone again, idle and bored, Mo Xiaohe chopped the ribs she bought during the day, washed them with water a few times, removed the blood inside, threw them in the big iron pot between the stoves, put star anise, ginger slices, and waited for tomorrow morning, she could stew into a boneless state, put some winter melon given by the aunt next door, and she also made up for herself.

"Open the door, little lady, open the door!"

Mo Xiaohe yawned, just blew out the lamp and lay down, when she heard a knock at the door, she rubbed her forehead, sat up, and shouted, "Wait, come right away!" ”

Listening to the voice is the village chief, who came to the door in the middle of the night, it is likely that something is wrong, and the sound is noisy, it seems that there are many people outside the door.

Dressed in clothes, Mo Xiaohe turned on an oil lamp, opened the door, startled, there were at least dozens of people standing outside the door, everyone was holding torches in their hands, and I don't know if it was the cause of the fire.

Mo Xiaohe was confused, she was stunned for a while, she looked at the village chief in the front row, and wanted an explanation.

"Little lady, you live alone, there is nothing abnormal, right? We'll have to go in and see. ”

The village chief scratched his head, very embarrassed, and had to tactfully state its meaning. He felt that he was tactful, Mo Xiaohe was even more confused, in the middle of the night, people from a village came to the door and wanted to search her house, making it clear that he was looking for trouble with her and wanted to bully people?

Seeing that Mo Xiaohe's face was very bad, the eldest daughter-in-law of the village chief shook her head, pulled Mo Xiaohe aside, muttered a few words, and told the whole story.

Just a few days ago, a girl in the village who was married went to the mountains to collect firewood, and was forced by a strange man, who heard that the man had escaped from the quarry mountain, and now the people of the government are arresting people.

Huanghua's eldest daughter, who was about to get married, suffered, she limped, disheveled down the mountain, and was seen by several villagers, and the paper could not contain the fire, so she passed it out. The girl couldn't think of it for a while, so she jumped into the river, and although she was rescued, she was crazy, and her father and mother didn't know how many tears she had left.

Mo Xiaohe lives in a simple place, and the aunt next door is not a person with a broken mouth, so she almost didn't get the news channel, and she didn't know anything about it, no wonder there was always a messy cry a few nights ago, she nodded, and said to the eldest daughter-in-law of the village chief, "But what does this have to do with you coming to my house?" ”

"Well, we don't have bad intentions, but it's good for you."

I couldn't say half of the words, so I simply told me that Mo Xiaohe bought the foundation anyway, and he was an outsider in the village.

The village chief's daughter-in-law is quite neat, after the girl in the village was strong, there was a woman who went to the river to wash clothes tonight, and was forced by a strange man.

At first, the woman refused to obey death, but then gradually got better, and she enjoyed it, no, just now the woman's husband was half angry and half dead, and he had to divorce people, and kept scolding.

There are too many outsiders living in the village, which has increased a lot of income for the villagers, but it didn't take long for Huanxi to have an accident, and there was a quarry mountain, and several men ran away, and they were detained and could not enter the city, and the biggest possibility was that they were ambushed in Tianshui Village.

"I see."

In order to fear impersonation and escape, the government accepted everyone's road guides, and they could only return after the end of the conscription. However, Mo Xiaohe was not used to entering the house, she found a few people to help build the house, and people who were quite familiar with her entered the hospital to search.

The front house, the back room, the stove cellar, all searched, and the village chief saw that there was no problem, and he was ready to go to the next house to continue.

"Little lotus girl, it's not safe for you to stay at home by yourself, although there is rhubarb, but after all, it's a dog, you can follow our team!"

Mo Xiaohe thought about it, the people were wandering, I really didn't know where they were, she accepted the kindness of the village chief's daughter-in-law, followed the big team, knocked on the door door door, Xu was the rumor in the village before, the villagers were not particularly shocked after hearing it, and accepted the reality very calmly.

After looking for a long circle, they almost dug three feet into the village, and everyone was so tired and out of breath that they still didn't find anything.

The first girl who was forced was already crazy and covered her ears when she asked anything, and then the woman, because it was dark, couldn't see the other person's face clearly, but said with certainty that the other party had a scar on her buttocks.

"You damn stinky bitch, you don't have any shame, slut!"

Her man raised his hand and gave the woman a slap, and the woman immediately hid behind the village chief, broke the jar, and shouted without hesitation, "Fart! Since I married into your family and served the family, what work did I not do at home? ”

Chopping wood and fetching water, washing and cooking, feeding pigs and chickens, marrying in for a few years, not giving birth to a baby, being scolded by his mother-in-law every day for not laying eggs and being a hen, why not say that his son is not good? Can't give birth to a baby, thanks to women? If you hadn't been bullied by a large family, and when it got dark, you would have to go to the river to wash the clothes of the family?

"Isn't that what you should be?"

The man felt that he had become a joke of the villagers, it was very shameless, and he couldn't live his life anyway, so he divorced his wife early, he didn't want to be ridiculed in the future, so he wore a green hat.

"Should it? Should you wash your big brother's trousers? ”

The woman roared heartbreakingly, her hair was messy, and there were blood stains from the beating at the corners of her mouth. There is no family in the family, she not only has to wash her uncle's trousers, but also her father-in-law, which family is so shameless?

Even if you are lazy, you know how to avoid suspicion, but she is partial, she has a wonderful family, and her husband is not good, frankly speaking, that wild man is much stronger than her man, and she has been married for so long, she has experienced the happiness of being a woman for the first time!

"I'm going to kill you!"

The man's eyes are blood-red, looking for things everywhere, and the most taboo thing to be said is that he can't do it in intercourse, which is even more embarrassing than not being able to eat meat at home for a year, and washing his pants is said in front of the villagers, and he is embarrassed!

At this time, everyone exploded, no one heard of such a thing, the eldest daughter-in-law of the village chief's family, it is not worth it for a woman, she makes cattle and horses for the family, she has no chastity, and she has not been comforted.

"You kill, you kill, if you have the guts, do it, the old lady is with a nest like you, it's better to die!"

The woman walked out from behind the village chief with her neck stretched out, and the villagers saw that the situation was not right, and hurriedly persuaded them, but they could not speak.

In the end, it was the village chief who spoke, find someone as soon as possible, the one who escaped, the yamen is also looking for someone, if it is found in the village, the official may convict them of knowing and not reporting it, and they will be dragged to the yamen and dragged to the board collectively.

After tossing around, Mo Xiaohe returned home, and just wanted to fall asleep on the bed, but such a scene also made her wake up, at least one of them was in the village, and it was not safe.

Sleepless all night, keeping her eyes open until dawn, Mo Xiaohe sighed, she thought that she would suffer with her husband Gu Zheng, as long as he was there, it would be a good life, it seemed that she still overestimated herself, she couldn't bear hardships at all, the life of a natural maid, the body of a young lady.

After being crooked on the bed until almost noon, Mo Xiaohe got up lazily, added a few slices of winter melon to the pot, heated two steamed buns, and hastily ate a bite of rice.

There is no vegetable at home, she usually uses things to exchange with the aunt next door, and there is a large vegetable patch in the backyard of the aunt's house, all kinds of vegetables, which are dried into vegetables if they can't be eaten, so as to prevent them from rotting in the ground after getting old.

Just at noon, there was movement on the courtyard wall, Mo Xiaohe was so frightened that he went to the utility room to find a woodcutter, and saw Rhubarb running back in a hurry, baring his dog teeth and sticking out his tongue, looking enthusiastic, Mo Xiaohe was relieved.

Since the dog was brought back, he had a beautiful life, and suddenly there was flesh and bones, and his fur shone in his eyes, and his belly was bulging, and he was stronger than before.

"Husband, why are you back?"

Gu Zheng went home at noon for the first time, Mo Xiaohe hurriedly fetched a basin of water to wipe his face, and was picked up by Gu Zheng halfway, he saw that his lady's face was not good, and supported her on the chair.

When he heard that something had happened in Tianshui Village this morning, he was uneasy, so he took advantage of the noon break and didn't eat, so he secretly ran back from the back mountain over the wall, wanting to see the situation at home.

"Lady, it's not safe here, I'm worried that you're home alone, I see that although the village chief is picking on the door, he is a safe person, it's better to find someone and send you back."

During this time, after working hard for the lady, he saw it in his eyes and hurt in his heart, he helped him to work, and he couldn't take care of her, Gu Zheng felt uncomfortable, it didn't have to be long to serve as a servant, and he couldn't let her continue to suffer!

"It's all out, what are you going to do when you go back, and then someone will take care of me when you go back?"

Mo Xiaohe puffed out her face and expressed strong opposition, she went back, her husband had to rely on the crude food provided by the yamen in terms of food, there was no oil and water, it hurt her body too much!

If there are difficulties, find a way to overcome them, anyway, she won't go.

went to the stove and put a big bowl of winter melon pork rib soup, and took out an oily salted duck egg from the jar, Mo Xiaohe warmed four large steamed buns, put them on the table, and let his husband eat first, and discuss other issues slowly.

Gu Zheng thought that he couldn't convince the lady, so he gave some benefits to the officials, so that he could come back every night to accompany his wife, and it would be safer.
